This is a good and a bad thing; I'm able to give a fresh perspective on a VERY well established genre, but at the same time, I might come across as completely clueless. So I hope you can forgive any inconsistencies that might pop up..."
Grab your longsword, shield and round up the fantasy archetypes - there are Ice Dragons afoot!

I am kicking things off by going back to a familiar well here - with a song from the Neverwinter Nights soundtrack. This is still arguably one of my favorite music scores in a video game ever, but I decided to lead off with it and then create something of a theme as I decided to pull all of this edition's songs from RPG games.
Neverwinter Nights (PC) - Battle - Forest Boss
I touched on the somewhat mystical quality of another Neverwinter Nights song last week when discussing City Docks Day. There were a lot of really good battle tunes in this one, but the Forest Boss song always stood out in my mind. The battle itself was not even the most memorable one, but right around the one minute mark, it reaches an epic level that just stuck with me.

B-But FFXII isn't last-gen. I'd love to see it remastered regardless though. Brilliantly fun game, I just disliked the story unfortunately.
I really would like to see a HD Remaster of both Twilight Princess & Skyward Sword. Those games deserve to be in HD
Are you saying that they could make Ni no Kuni look even better, because I would like to see that.
someone doesn't know how to play JRPG's
isn't this kind of too late?
how can you be a gamer and not know any thing about jrpg's that dosent make since. i know lots of people that started gaming a year or two back and they at least know about turn based battles and other jrpg style characteristics.
This game should 5 not 3 imo.
7/10 it should be. Reviewer sucks.
