Some good news for RPG fans who went with the PS3 like myself.

Dragon Age: Origins released Europe on Oct 23 Info
Its more an action/adventure/RPG of the Fable nature from the looks. But you have multiple playing paths which is always good for playability.

White Knight Chronicles released Nov '09 Q&A
More Final Fantasy style'd then DA:O and apparently with great online capabilites so..... much awaited.

Demon's Souls released Oct 6th Info
More action/RPG again but hey, we can't afford to be picky. Game footage looks ok, and previews seems decent. The online aspect seems good, allowing users to pop in and help youat any time if you wish, but this quote troubles me "but we were told that at a certain point in the game--once you've received a particular stone--you can force your way into another player's game and vice versa."

There is also some more info on.....

Final Fantasy 13!!!! Release Date Early 2010
Seems to have a lot more information than when I last looked on the Wiki Page


UPDATE 20/08
Here
A new Tri-Ace game, for PS3! Fans of Lost Odyssey rejoice!

Couple of interesting point here too [LINKhttp://www.rpgamer.com/news/Q2-2009/042209a.html]Linky[/LINK]

I am in Greede now!

Warhunt, what is Resonance of Fate like?

Confusing at first.

The battle system is best described as a fluid WKC mixed with a bit of TOV/Star Ocean. With guns.

So far I have got that the battle kis trying to be fluid, whilst the gameplay is like a general RPG. Think FF7 world map (if the whole game took place in Midgar).

You earn "hexes" off enemies and drops, that you place on the world map to unlock paths to new areas.

Ok so far I guess.

I have put it on the LoveFilm list, worth a go i reckon!

Can normally rely on you to update me with RPG's lol!

Nier isn't far off either mate.

Not heard much about that, whats it looking like??

Might watch some game reviews / previews when i go home!

I did quite enjoy Resonance of Fate once I got used to the battle system. Scratch damage is *very* important, as are smackdowns. Depleting your hero gauge pretty much means losing the battle. It's got a couple of nasty learning curves when it comes to battle strategy too, but definately a decent game overall.

Don't know I've only seen one trailer for it so far :D But it's SE attempt at God Of War so it can't be toooooooo bad.

Could be worth a look! I will probably get it from LoveFilm

It's out tomorrow apparently.

The video's do not excite me to be honest, but I have faith.

Deciding whether to spend the last hour or two Plat'ting FF13 this week.
