Beg For Mercy5713d ago

they all are average or below at best

Drekken5713d ago

They are sent from above directly from God... what are you talking about?? lol

Vespertine5713d ago

I doubt Star Ocean and The Last Remnant are going to be average RPG's.

I knew Infinite Undiscovery was going to be dull and average from the beginning.

RAF-TECH5713d ago

I think your talking about folklore and Disgaea.

Cuz Tales and LostOddysey are very nice RPG gems

theMinusWorld5713d ago

They'll never defeat PS3 in Japan and I'm far from a Sony fanboy.

beans5713d ago

As long as they gain more market share and create stronger brand recognition (like there doing now) they are setting themselves up to eventually be a driving force over there. I never thought nintendo would fall from power and I never thought it was rise to power so all of this it will never happen crap is all talk as far as I'm concerned. With Samsung creating the next 360 possibly and heck maybe Square supporting it from launch full stream next gen might just be the turning event we all once thought was impossible.

Vespertine5713d ago

I didn't like Infinite Undiscovery too much. It's not what I expected.

I'm looking forward to the other two RPG's though. Especially Star Ocean: The Last Hope.

PlayStation Plus is a secret paradise for RPG fans

From games that digitaltrends DeAngelo Epps has always wanted to play but missed out on, like Odin Sphere, to newer titles that he'd love to re-experience like Yakuza: Like a Dragon, there was enough there to justify diving back in. And those titles aren’t even a small percent of what’s available here. Vanillaware titles, Square Enix games, NIS franchises he’d never even heard of — there’s a whole lot to dig into.

PSPlus is Amazing for RPGs and NIS America, Square Enix and Vanillaware games are perfect for PSPortal.

LG_Fox_Brazil169d ago

Not really a 'secret' but a paradise indeed, I just finished Soul Hackers 2, pretty good, and started Labyrinth of Galleria and I am having a blast. Tons of great RPGs in the PS4/PS5 family

Mr_cheese169d ago

Secret is the click buzzword. Can't have a title without bait these days.

anast169d ago

secret, shadow, hidden

Perfect for playing on the Portal, since rpgs can be such timesinks. For those people who can't stay glued to the TV, it's good to give some freedom around the house, out on the porch or whatever. I haven't picked up a Portal yet, bc of life priorities, but I definitely anticipate picking one up asap and playing more rpgs!

ziggyzinfirion169d ago

I'm currently playing Final Fantasy VII:Remake for the first time on PS5 and I am freaking blown away by this game so far. I don't know why I waited this long or due to my huge backlog but had to be honest, this game exceeded my expectations.

OtterX169d ago

Yea, story pacing aside, the combat system is pretty killer, especially if you slow it down to play it more like a tactical turned based jrpg!

I actually wish FF16 had gone this route, instead of the DMC route. The FF7:R system gave enough action for those who wanted to play that way, while still appeasing us old school turn based jrpg fans.

Glad you're enjoying!

crazyCoconuts169d ago

Some of the best in game HDR I've ever seen in that game. I liked it a lot too. My first final fantasy game believe it or not

Tri-Ace still uses their old game engine from 2008

The gaming community lately makes jokes about companies making games that look like "PS3" or "PS2" games. While this is such a nasty dig, there may be some truth to this in the case of tri-Ace.

Sad really. I used to love these guys but man...they just aren't what they used to be.

phallusitator349d ago

According to the this they are exactly what they used to be…

Noskypeno350d ago

The Cod games have been using an engine built in the mid 90s. Nothing wrong with using an old engine if they update it. Bioshock used UE2 and looked better than most UE3 games. Arkham knight used UE3 and looked better than most UE4 games.

Chriswynnetbh350d ago

I would give my left nut for an infinite undiscovery pc port

shinoff2183350d ago

Sh it does suck but I enjoyed star ocean 6 the most out of any game last year. I thought it was solid af start to finish. My favorite game that year.

I'd love for Sony to get ahold of them.

shinoff2183350d ago

To late to edit but I just wanted to add not every game that comes out needs to push a consoles boundaries. Star ocean 6 looked fairly good to me.

shammgod350d ago

Yeah. They definitely squeezed every drop out of that engine for SO6. It was a fun game

nitus10349d ago (Edited 349d ago )

I assume you are talking about "Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness" which I do have and am still playing. IMHO it is a good game but for some reason I still prefer "Star Ocean: The Last Hope" that I played on my PS3.

As a side note I have "Star Ocean: Till the End of Time" (PS2 version) which I played on my first gen PS3 but unfortunatly the Australian version of the PS3 did not have full backwards capability like the US version did. I got so far in the game and hit a bug (advancement to a new area between two mountains) that prevented further play.
