So I'll be getting an xbox 360 on Tuesday with 3 games...(Eternal Sonata,Arcade/Sega Superstars Tennis and Gears of War)
and I would like it if you could recommend me some 360 games...
mostly i would like Jrpgs,Fighting games and action games.
NO WRPG SHIT!!! (not that I think western rpg's are shit but they just aint right for me!)
anyways here is what I plan on getting tell me what you think:
Jrpg's:
Blue Dragon
Lost Odyssey
Tales of Vesperia
infinite undiscovery
Fighting Games:
Blazblue
Dragon Ball Z raging Blast
Dragon ball Z burst limit
Action Games:
Ninja Gaiden 2 (this is a maybe)
Devil May Cry 4 (My favorite action game of all time so I'll get regardless)
Assassins Creed II
tell me what you think of my list and recommend me some more thank you.
Jr-Peace out!!!
-
Infinite Undiscovery is pretty horrible. I gave up on it for like an hour because it was kind of dumb and not very fun. I kind of enjoyed Eternal Sonata because it was a kind of enjoyable JPRG but really really dumb in places. I didn't finish it or anything because I just didn't get round to it. If you're big into JRPGS you'll probably love it though. If you're a discerning gamer than like, you won't dig it so much.
-
Banjo Kazooie: Nuts n' Bolts.
Saints Row 2
Final Fantasy XIII (duh, you missed this out, it should be released soon)
Edit I noticed you mentioned Blazblue, let me know if it's as good as it's supposed to be.
-
get xbox live and download Marvel Vs Capcom 2.
Also ninja gaiden 2 is a definite, at least I liked it.
GTA4 if you havent played it. Lost Planet is great too, get the online coop demo for LP 2 on live, its worth it.
Okay ONE WRPG, Dragon Age Origins.
-
lost odyssey is really really REALLY generic and boring. It is barely playable due to ridiculous loading (30 seconds up to a minute) before each and every battle. Don't get it.
-
goddamn faggot
-

I have to disagree. While the first hour or so of the game is a little frustrating, the game gets much better further in. Make sure if you buy it to snag the vouchers off Live. They make the game a little easier.
As for recommendations:
RPGs:[/i]
The Last Remnant
Magna Carta 2
Tales of Vesperia
Star Ocean 4
Fighting Games:[/i]
Soul Calibur IV
Street Fighter IV
Virtua Fighter 5
Marvel vs Capcom 2
Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix
Tekken 6
-
lol orange box for cheap if you like/missed out on half life (or portal)
-
I forgot about Final Fantasy XIII.
So I guess I'll be getting Ninja Gaiden 2 for sure...
And also Tekken 6.
Have any of you guys played the Dragon Ball Z games are they any good?
Also Goodbye infinite undiscovery,I was just gonna pick it up because its cheap but whatever
-
Fallout 3
I know it's a WRPG, but you'd definitely be missing out if you skipped it.
-
it doesnt seem like you'd like any of these but get fallout 3 and gta4 and mass effect and the orange box (i know it's better on pc or whatever but idc)
also get n+ from the arcade and some friends to play it with online or irl, it's sooo fucking good if you like pure platformers
-
I'll try out something new every once in awhile so I might get Fallout III.
but GTA IV I played it at a friends house and just could not STAND IT!!!!,which isn't suprising since the only gta game I could actually get into was San Andreas.
I forgot to add Gears of War 2.
since the Holidays are starting and all my friends are going overseas except 1 or 2 I'm not gonna have much to do.
So I'm gonna buy like 5 or 6 games to last me 6 weeks.
Which of these games do you reckon I should get?
the ones im getting for sure are:
lost odyssey
Devil may Cry IV
and DBZ raging blast (I know this isn't all that good but my inner DBZ fan boy wont let me resist it)
-
Well im sellin my XB360 (hopefully) u shud buy gears of war 2 if your getting 1.
-
Being the FPS nut that I am, i'll list a lot of those out for you. Keep in mind that a lot of these were ported from the PC, and although most people consider the console versions to be inferior, they still remain good games and are worth checking out.
The Orange Box - I'd say that this is by far the best collection that you can buy for the 360. Some of your favorite Valve games from the PC come to the 360, including: Half Life 2 + episodes, Portal, and Team Fortress 2. The game retails for around 19.99, but you can purchase it from Amazon or a game store such as EB games for approximately 15$ or so.
Left 4 Dead
Bioshock
Condemned and Condemned 2
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
Halo 3
Halo ODST(Might want to wait on this one, the 59.99 retail price for a game that is essential Halo 3's multiplayer(+ a few maps) and a short campaign isn't worth it for most people. Probably isn't a game that one who doesn't general consider theirself and actual fan of the series would consider.)
F.E.A.R.
Perfect Dark: Zero - Okay so a lot of people were disappointed in this game, often bashing it for being inferior to it's predecessor...which I happen to agree with, but i've had a blast playing it online(and at a cheap price tag at around 5$, you wouldn't be losing much if you purchase it and end up not enjoying it.)
Battlefield: Bad Company - Im pretty sure that somes fans of the previous games in the series have given this a semi-bad rep, but I really enjoy it. Also the destructible terrain is a lot of fun to mess around with.
Keep in mind that you may not enjoy some of these games as much, or at least IMHO you wouldn't be getting your money's worth in absence of a live
membership(e.g. Halo 3 and PD: Zero) The Fallout 3: GOTY(Includes Fallout 3 PLUS the five expansions including Mothership Zeta) looks good and it's nice that you're at least leaving it as an option for the future, though it is an WRPG and not really an FPS(besides the whole "shooting in first person" which is usually a bad distinction anyhow.)
-
Ive played Burst Limit once, rented with some mates when we were drunk as and I would pass seriously on that one, played a bit of Raging Blast at a mates house which was actually pretty fun surprisingly, just the camera is quite annoying at times.
Eternal Sonata is a good play, also could try Magna Carta 2, Tales of Vesperia, Lost Odyssey and that's about it for the JRPGs, don't bother with Star Ocean 4 or any Tri-Ace game out right now for that matter. I have a feeling you wouldn't like the western ones but give Dragon Age Origins, Mass Effect and Fallout/Oblivion a try.
As for general Xbox 360 games to get I would try Forza Motorsport 3, Modern Warfare 1-2, Assassin's Creed 2(Although you really should try beating the first so you know what's going on) Dead Rising, Halo ODST, Orange Box like everyone has said, Left 4 Dead series, and there's a ton of Arcade games you can get as well, Shadow Complex for example.
-
I am a lazy fuck, but when it comes to suggesting 360 games, pretty much everything listed on my gamer card (click on the thing in my sig) is good. The Last Remnant is the only thing that I'd say stay away from, but it's fairly cheap and could provide some entertainment. I'll be going back to it eventually.
-
By telling yourself NO WRPGS you basically just cut your 360 RPG fun by half. Some of the most valuable experiences in xbox would actually be WRPGs.
Mass Effect and Oblivion
The rest are just your run of the mill RPG games that you would have already experienced if you had a PS2, even an snes. Try mass effect at least, it will make your 360 time worth the price you paid for it.
-
I hear a lot of contention between fans and haters of Mass Effect. I personally haven't tried it yet (I'm lazy I guess), but I'll probably pick it up sometime before the sequel launches.
-
yeah I guess I should try give some WPRG's a chance.
I've played a few but I just couldn't get into 'em.
I hear Last Remnant is like a mix between JRPG and Western maybe it'll help me get used to them?
-
Eh, I guess you could say that. There isn't a whole lot of control over the squads of characters you control, and unit growth is random and pretty much goes without explanation as to what special abilities and statistics are... But, it is still an interesting game. Story isn't anything spectacular, but it's a lot of political intrigue mixed with the main character trying to save his sister.
Read some other reviews first, before deciding on it.

I've heard good things about Dragon Age: Origins.

Street Fighter IV
But maybe wait for Super Street Fighter IV?

Infinite Undiscovery does pick up if you can get over the first couple of hours. Also Kaworu is wrong about the Lost Odyssey load times, at least now that you can install the game to the hard drive. The load time problems were in an early review copy of the game, the release version got the load times down to a slightly less awful time of like 20 seconds, and installing the game to the HD helps even more. Unfortunately, it's still not a very good game, though it's pretty in some parts.
The only jRPG worth playing though is Enchanted Arms, because it's the most ridiculous jRPG I've ever played. Probably provided centuries of Yaoi material.
The 360 has a surprising number of high profile RPGs but unfortunately the japanese ones are all paint-by-numbers affairs featuring the same dumb characters you've seen in every game (strong male leads, a weak female that the male lead must protect but who is capable of amazing healing powers, a brooding individual, and usually a spunky supporting female)

you forgot "the black", although this is an optional addition to rpgs
(http://pub.gamingw.net/38025/sazh-katzroy.jpg)
is magna carta 2 any different than every other jrpg because i do not have a high tolerance for jrpgs nowadays (really not much of one for any rpgs but jrpgs much less) but part of me still feels the need to try playing them and it's one of the only ones i can think of in recent history that i don't know anything about/haven't heard a million people say how awful it is
basically on a scale from rape to shape how j is this jrpg?
-
Magna Carta 2 is horribly generic and awful and shitty. If you're looking to try a decent-ish JRPG, try picking up Vesperia. It's... ok this sounds p. gay but it is a lot better than surface value would suggest!
-
I read the character descriptions of Vesperia just now and jesus it fits Rowain's list so perfectly.

My descriptions apply perfectly to Magna Carta 2.
Male lead is obvious, weak supporting female is the princess, brooding individual is the big bear man, and spunky supporting female is this girl: http://www.zeitgeistgamereview.com/wordpress/wp-content/gallery/magna-carta-2-screenshots/celestine_pose_type_a_01.jpg
Also description of characters:
Juto (Male | Swordsman | Counter-Sentinel Unit Member)
The young protagonist of the game. Juto is an amnesiac. With no knowledge of his past, he settled down into a normal life on Highwind Island, until his life was turned upside-down by the war. Melissa, who gave him the name Juto, has been like a big sister to him ever since he came to Highwind Island. Juto is very outgoing and can be very childish at times, particularly when it comes to taking orders from others.

Zephie (Female | Wind Wizard | Counter-Sentinel Unit Leader)
The game's heroine, Rzephillda Grena Berlinette (Zephie) is the rightful heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Lanzheim, which was stolen by a usurper. She now leads the Counter-Sentinel Unit, a special unit of the Southern Forces Army, in hope of one day retrieving her throne and restoring peace to the empire. The hardships she has experienced, such as her mother's assassination and her subsequent imprisonment, have lent her an unusually cool and unshakable demeanor for a girl her age. The reason she represses her true emotions is for the sake of the many complicated roles she plays.
Voiced by: Michelle Ruff (English)
Rue (Female | Lightning Wizard | Counter-Sentinel Unit Member)
Her full name is Siara Rue Tessia, but after she became Zephie's bodyguard she started calling herself "Rue". She is older and more mature than her childish appearance would suggest - the exact opposite of Celestine. Having trained from a young age to be Zephie's bodyguard, she has learned to repress her emotions and to always act in a level-headed manner. Clever, cunning, and fearless, her training has given her a black and white view of the world. As a result, she dislikes breaking rules and promises, and has a hard time seeing things from another person's perspective.
Voiced by: Kate Higgins (English)
Crocell Reeden (Male | Fire Wizard | Counter-Sentinel Unit Member)
A young fire wizard in the Counter-Sentinel Unit, Crocell may look like a cute little boy, but he has a rude way of speaking, and he's not afraid to speak out about anything he doesn't like. He has a hard time getting close to people or being honest with himself, but he's very good at pushing other people's buttons -- a trait that often leads him into conflict with the short-tempered Juto. He lost his parents and his little sister in the war, and hates the Northern Forces Army because of it.
Voiced by: Yuri Lowenthal (English)
Argo Kindu (Male | Warrior | Counter-Sentinel Unit Member)
A warrior of the long-lived Trewa race, Argo has a massive body as hard as a rock. Level-headed, patient, and responsible, he often plays the role of mediator during arguments. A very responsible person, he's usually slow to anger -- though if he does lose his temper, he becomes like an unstoppable inferno. He possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of Lanzheim, and seems far wiser and more knowledgeable than other Trewa of the same age.
Voiced by: Jamieson Price (English)
Celestine Roaa (Female | Ice Wizard | Archer)
A lively, high-spirited Mare girl. The Mare people look just like humans, but their lifespan is a little under 40 years. They reach physical maturity at the age of 10, and remain young-looking until they die. Psychologically speaking, though, they mature at the same rate as humans do, so even though Celestine's has the body of an adult, her mind is still that of a young girl. As such, she always speaks her mind, and expresses her true feelings without hesitation -- with Celestine, what you see is what you get.
Voiced by: Stephanie Sheh (English)
Schuenzeit Baren (Male | Supreme Commander of the Northern Forces Army)
The main antagonist of the game. Formerly the Prime Minister of Lanzheim, he assassinated the queen and usurped her throne three years prior. Grave and solemn, his very presence demands deference from those around him. Even when he seems to be acting at ease, his peculiar charisma makes it impossible for others to drop their guard. Cool-headed and craft, there is no limit to the cruelty he is capable of if it helps him achieve his goals. He is said to be a peerless swordsman, but no one has ever seen him in action.
Voiced by: Steve Blum (English)
Also note the inclusion of a race who reach maturity at the age of 10.
-
basically i guess will never enjoy a jrpg again in my life
not that it's that big of a loss :/
wrpgs are out there right now for the 360 and/or ps3 that are good? the dude who made this topic doesn't want any but i do
-
guys help i don't like rpgs anymore my childhood is leaving me!!!!!!
-
guys help i don't like rpgs anymore my childhood is leaving me!!!!!!
it's strange, i can still go back and objectively enjoy some of the old rpgs(SOME), but all the new rpgs make me sick one way or another.
probably has something to do with the graphics. the more they look like people and not pixel/polygon blobs, the more you expect the characters to behave like people. voice acting plays a big part in this as well. you really notice shit dialogue more when you've got some low-grade voice actor trash seeking unsuccessfully for the meaning in the words.
-
Vesperia is actually pretty fun if you don't mind the "Tales of" series... Though, an updated version is being released (if it isn't already out) on PS3 and I'm fairly certain the US is getting that one. The voice work was pretty good and there were plenty of funny/entertaining moments (if not childish, but whatevs).
And if you can con any of your friends to help you out in battles with the local multiplayer, it's a good way to pass the time with a couple buddies.

it's definitely because of the graphics and whatnot. To me, it's OK if a sprite or blocky character is giving me some cheesy text dialogue and has about 3-6 preprogrammed animations because my suspension of disbelief is already heavily enough in play that it's just fine for a bunch of 2D or poorly rendered fools to act like that in their already quaint little world, but when a full on japanese anime-style 3D voice acted faggot is just goin' for it in the melodrama department I get disgusted.
-
I know this kinda changes the whole point of this topic but....
I might buy a ps3 instead.
which is better for the type of games i like e.g jrpg's action games and fighting games.
-
the PS3 might be the better choice right now, developers are getting the hang of the hardware finally and a lot of the exclusives are pretty nice looking.
Just about every game worth playing on the 360 is also on the PS3 anyway
-
Definitely get some Microsoft Points. XBLA has, surprisingly, a lot of great games on there.
Shadow Complex
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Mega Man 9
1989 Arcade Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix (can this name get any longer?)
Super Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix
Crystal Defenders (basically Tower Defense but it's a lot of fun. Plus from Square Enix)
Braid
Trials HD (it's just damn fun)
Great thing is is all these games you can download a demo.
Oh and Bioshock is a must.
I really dig Rock Band 2 but that's not for everyone (obviously).
-
never mind that I'm gonna go with the 360.
There is no way I'm spending $500 on a gaming console.(in other words I'm cheap FTW)
-
get with the times australia, the LAND OF THE FREE is sellin' them for $300
-
did you forget new games in australia cost like 150$
-
i didn't forget anything, i'm saying australia needs to GET WITH THE PROGRAM (i.e. become part of the united states so that they can get some REAL prices)
-
actually here its impossible for a game to go that high highest it will ever go is 110 which I'm cool with.
NOT that I'll buy every game as soon as it comes out except Final Fantasy XIII and maybe Dragon Ball Z raging blast(which i don't think counts because its only 90 and already out.)

All new games are 120 dollars here. Well, the high budget ones, anyway. Either suck it up, or don't buy new current gen games.

are you from america because on the gamestop website final fantasy xiii was only 60 bucks to pre-order?

Gamestop is an american site, dealing in American dollars.
-
Damn couldn't get the 360 today hopefully tomorrow or the day after.Oh well.
Am I the only one that thinks FFXIII looks like shit...I mean none of the character look interesting at all except for maybe Lightning.
either way as an ff fan boy I can't wait till the game comes out because I'll be pre-ordering it.

play FIFA 10 every day. you will never tire of watching yourself score wonder goals

play FIFA 10 every day. you will never tire of watching yourself score wonder goals
This is literally all i do. I go online and everyone plays as Barcelona or Real Madrid and I play as Bolton Wanderers and then I play really attractive football and laugh with glee as Johan Elmander and Kevin Davies terrorise the Real Madrid defence.
Also, I'm kind of interested to learn that Infinite Undisocvery does get better. I'm inside a castle at the moment (I had to like, destroy the gate or something.) Am I nearly at the good bit yet?
-
in fairness anyone would terrorise the Real Madrid defence ;)
-
play FIFA 10 every day. you will never tire of watching yourself score wonder goals
this is what i'm getting with my ps3 for christmas i am so excited (yeah i could have gotten it for the 360 but i am not 100% decided on what exclusive ps3 games i am gonna get (also a lot of them aren't out yet) and i need something to play on it in the meantime)
jesus the demo was so gr8
-

What's minimum wage like?
-
you're gonna love it vellfare. apparently the PS3 version is nigh-on identical to the 360 version so i can heartily recommend it. unfortunately i don't think you can make a female lady footballer!
just waiting on my bro to bring it back from university, excellent midfielder dan butler has just signed for inter :D
-
I normally just make RIDICULOUS SHIT anyway, that's what I did in PES09 at least (and I can't say I enjoyed the demo of PES10, I'm not sure what changed). But yeah the demo of FIFA 10 was fantastic so I'm definitely looking forward to it.
I wonder if anyone's ever made a ladies' football game before...unfortunately I don't think there's enough of a market to really encourage that to ever happen but I just wonder if there's one deep in the bowels of video game history somewhere...the FM games do let you be a female manager though, that was interesting (and the press always asks you DO YOU THINK IT'S HARD BEING A WOMAN IN FOOTBALL????? IS THIS A PROBLEM??)
-
definitely do the sports bra celebration
-
I think if there was a women's football game it would be dead or alive style.The ball wouldn't be the only thing bouncing if you catch my drift fellas... :fogetnaughty: :fogetwank:
-
the sad thing is that you're completely right, that IS what it would be
-
YEAH KACHING!!!!
got me my next gen console. :rockout:
Been playing some Eternal Sonata and Gears of War.
-
Also, I'm kind of interested to learn that Infinite Undisocvery does get better. I'm inside a castle at the moment (I had to like, destroy the gate or something.) Am I nearly at the good bit yet?
Did you go through all the cut scenes in the castle? Defeated the knight in the castle? Where you able to get the party menu where you can create multiple parties? After that if you're still into the game, it gets interesting.
I kinda liked infinity undiscovery because it had a zelda style hack and slash feel to it. You can learn combos and magic powers and all the enemies you fight are in real time (its not turnbased). I'm actually on the part 3-4 cutscenes after that castle. It gets really tedious especially because of some of the sand monsters being hard as fuck.
-
Nah I just got into the castle and then like all the enemies were the same and everything was the same and then I died and I thought "I really don't like this game I'm not going to lie
-
I sold my 360 yo JR :) Stickin with my wii the fact i can pirate games makes it all worthwhile 33 games and counting compared to my shitty 8 XB360 games especially considering 6 of em came with the console i and i got 1 for free of my friend.
-
Hey cool, can we keep your personal discussions to your Facebook or MySpace thanks
Infinite Undiscovery has some sort of endearing interest to me. I finished it eventually (played it for a few days, took months off, rinse and repeat), and I hated parts of it, but even despite the fact that it's a very broken game, the voice acting is terrible and the characters about as emotive as a sack of potatoes, something about it compels me to play again. I dunno. I really like that game somehow even if all I can think of are negative points!
-
I know what you mean, Christoph. Part of me really wants to go and play Last Remnant again, but, the other part of me remembers that the game was boring as fuck... :(
-
I'm buying a ps3 just for Fifa10, and some ps3 exclusive games, and for the hardware.
-
I know what you mean, Christoph. Part of me really wants to go and play Last Remnant again, but, the other part of me remembers that the game was boring as fuck... :(
I really wanted to like Last Remnant, like I god damn tried so hard to enjoy that game but nope, none of that. The difficulty spikes were ridiculous enough to turn me off it forever.
-
I don't think I ever hit a difficulty spike (then again I'm only I don't know how far into the game since it doesn't have a god damned 'time played' feature) yet. I just hate that you have no control over anything but equipment and you're left in the dark as to what pretty much anything does. The game looked so promising a before it came out... Great idea on paper, terrible in practice, as per usual Square Enix.
-
GOOD GAMES ON MY XBOX 360:
- The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
- Fallout 3
- Fable II
- Assassin's Creed II
- Lost Odyssey
- Dragon Age: Origin
- Mass Effect
- Bioshock
-
yeah I'm gonna get lost odyssey the main reason I bought a 360 .... well that blazblue,the dbz games and ff13.
But after watching a live stream of ff13 I'm kinda losing hope... theres no towns,maps are more linear then ff10 and the music is pretty bad aside from the battle music.
-
jesus guys even jr understands how awful ff13 looks
-
God the Last Remnant pissed me off. It could've been a Suikoden style epic, instead they botched all the basics. The battle system was almost interesting, but they fucked it up by making you feel like you're never really in control. The story could've been good but it was ruined by the usual Square style of barely bothering to tell it. A lot of the technical issues could be alleviated by installing the game to the Hard drive but that didn't change the fact they wasted the Unreal3 engine too. Some of the cutscenes looked god awful and there was so much slowdown
-
The last remnant was okay i really hated the loading times and the fact battle scenes sometimes went on forever.
-
apparently last remnant on the PC is way better than on the 360. No more slow downs and no graphical issues.

The last remnant was okay i really hated the loading times and the fact battle scenes sometimes went on forever.
Yeah the loading times on this one did take the wind out of my sails on several occasions (I am a horribly impatient person). The batlles were not to bad on a whole but some did drag on for longer than what seemed necessary.
-
I personally believe that Modern Warfare 2 is a must for the 360. It's story will only last you about ten hours (if you play through on Veteran), but I really felt like I earned it when I was done. Also, the multiplayer is so much fun.

Magna Carta 2 is amazing, despite the horrible reviews... which I honestly can't figure out.
Graphics: good - perfect functionality, no slowdowns, very colorful and fluid.
Story: not super original, but executed so well, you really do care about what'll happen next.
Sound/Music: Voice acting is surprisingly strong for a jRPG, maybe 1 annoying character, but even she's not that bad. Everyone else's work is solid. Music is great too, not Mitsuda but still does the job.,
Battle System: Probably the best battle system this generation, constantly engaging, and makes the game somewhat difficult. It's still pretty easy, but not boring-easy.
Length: Well, I'm at 20 hours, and just finished disk 1. I'm guessing I'll total at 45 hours or so, there are 100 side-quests, each of which is fairly short but still fun to carry out. NO fetch quests, thank god, they're actual side-quests.
Great jRPG, probably the best one after Lost Odyssey this generation. GET IT.
-
I would like to highly recommend Lost Odyssey and Ninja Gaiden off your list. I have played both of those and love then. The graphics, plot and game play are wonderful in both in my opinion.
