Although I can't wait to get this game, I don't know if I'd really call it a true "RPG". It's got a lot of different elements to it. Although you could say you're "role playing" in any game in all actuality.

Its a lil different in my opinion, I think that Mass Effect and Bioshock look like great games but if I had to pick one I would go for bioshock for sure!

If it actually comes out this year, probably. We'll make the decision once all the RPGs that are coming out this year actually come out.

if its coming out this year... then it will definitely be RPGOTY... just out of virtue of there not being any other epic RPG games coming out this year.

I agree, BlueDragon bombed vs the stripped down motorstorm and if a JRPG doesnt appeal to the Japanese, who will buy it :)

I think it could be the best RPG ever created up to Mass Effect's release. So what you said is possible aswell.

Sure, it got tons of great reviews, but it didnt sell well, partly due to the platform.

What's your source? Blue Dragon has been one of the driving forces (along with Lost Planet) of 360 sales in Japan. If it weren't for those two games, the system would be on its last legs over there.

Mass Effect is indeed teh pwnfzorz!!11!1!

In other words, it will induebedably be one of the most upper-shelf games of the year. Yes, quite. Pip pip and all that.

but all of this is besides the point. the fact is that Blue Dragon seems to be a really good game.

its not like MS will ever have a chance in JP. they should pretty much call the place Nintendoland. the X360 and PS3 really have no chance beating the Wii over there... and you can forget about beating the DS. that handheld is just in another league of its own.

I don't want to conquer them, I'm glad Ninty dominates in Japan and around the world :) The DS is the most ingenious gaming invention in some time... but that's beside the point. Blue Dragon looks great, but Mass Effect is my #1 most anticipated 360 game this year (BD is in my top 3 for sure).

Are you sure it's coming out this year? It doesn't have a release date, it's just TBA so I wouldn't be surprised if this doesn't drop till 08.

a games journalist pressured one of the devs to give atleast a time-frame of the game, in which he said september. but then Bioware's PR retracted the statement. i think it has a chance of getting released this year. if it doesn't, it will most likely be just to polish up the game a bit, and to avoid the flood of amazing titles coming out this fall.

everything i've read (which believe me is way to much to count) gives off a sense that it will be coming out this year, but that could just be because i cant wait to have it and im hearing things.... all im going to say is wait til E3, im almost positive they will give the release date.

to battlefront- you live a sad life if thats how you look at things. c0mplex- completely agree, they are an RPG powerhouse and if you watch the earlier videos with the developers they talk about how they are using all the best points from there other games.

No its just a simple fact of life. Dont have expectations or if you do have low ones. That way if it did trurn out great it would seem better. And actually I have a great life. (Thats a steep judgement call to be making to someone when you've never met them)

I'm very sorry if i offended you but if you have such low expectations on everything then i guess this game will blow your expectations away.

I think it will be after seeing some gameplay. I just think that the shear size and scope of the universe setting will make this a great and very deep game.
