New PS3 exclusive JRPG, Atelier Rorona, announced!

PS3 is on a freakin role! :D

Very nice... here's to hoping it turns out decent

No offense, but is the Atelier series really a stellar JRPG series? This gen is so disappointing.

Nippon Ichi is great for quirky games, but I highly doubt their ability to make compelling, serious storylines.

never heard of this franchise before, is this a japanese only release?

I am so mad at Capcom. It wouldn't be so bad if UC wasn't so TERRIBLE. If I remember correctly, they originally intended it to be a scenario game but quickly changed it to a rail shooter. Which seems to make sense, because halfway through the game it turns to PS2 levels and the effort put into the game is laughable. Nemesis - with a robot voice that sounds like it was simply altered through a freeware wave editor? REALLY Capcom?

I guess I'll just have to keep buying amazing PS1 games. Sadly, the best games I bought last gen were PS1 games I found (like Xenogears in mint condition found in a gamestop).

Of course, there will be and are great games this gen. I'm personally looking forward to Heavy Rain and Final Fantasy XIII - which I hope will be a solid JRPG.

No, there were a few JRPGs on the PS2. Look them up. They don't seem to be anything special.

2009 = year of ps3 comfirmed, nothing can stop it!!!

Atelier, huh? I suppose it will be sprite-based like Disgaea 3, then.Cherokee_Jack

Apparently Nippon Ichi is moving away from sprites with there next game because they got a lot of flack with Disgaea 3

I actually like the series alot.

Darn it, I want more JRPG's with less anime-ish and childish characters! Is that really too much to ask for? :cry:

Nope. It's what a cliche JRPG is.

A PS3/PC Sci-Fi RPG game called Mars was announced earlier today as wellUndertakerVsHBK

Eh, JRPG's don't do it for me. I'd rather play a WRPG.

UndertakerVsHBK

Nope, I want more mature turn-based JRPG's. We've already had some, so I don't see the need for all the cliches that have made the genre get old and tiresome over the years.

thats great news to me, ive been waiting for more games like atelier this gen. but i do wonder how theyre going to transition it to current hardware.

Excellent. Day one buy for me when it makes it's way over here since I've been trying to get my hands on whatever games Nippon Ichi makes or publishes.

Well at least Sony is paying for exclusives on SOMETHING!!! I hope this is finally the beginning of Sony's epic comeback.

Is that a broad announcement to everyone in agreement with my post, or did you think I was a proponent of the game?

I can't think of any besides Last Remnant. Are you talking about games only out this gen?UndertakerVsHBK

Lost Odyssey

Persona franchise

I know both have their share of JRPG cliches, but they offer maturity, too. The great thing about LO is that Kaim, Seth, Jansen, etc, aren't whiny emo tween boys or girls. The only 2 childish characters ARE children so it's understandable.

My faith in the industry as a whole is basically non existant since we here as gamers sit back and realize the stupid decisions they make but some how they don't notice. I want to say Capgod shocked me but they didn't, I predicted this, and that is the sad part. I have played few games this gen that I have actually been excited for from announcement to release date. Sad, the gen is great for people who are intersted in certain types of games but for me, well I'll just go back to playing my SNES and PS1. Someone wake me when something interesting is announced. Oh, and Umbrella Chronicles sucked as well.

Anyway, lets see where Ichi takes this, could be interesting.

Exclusives are few and far between. Here is hoping this game is a good one.

It's possible, but knowing NIS - I'm not sure.

I actually like the series alot.

I played and beat 1 and 2. I cant find 3. I like the artstyle. I would think they wouldint go 3d,but make the sprites hd.

this gen has really been lacking in terms of JRPG's as a whole the only good ones were lost odessy and Valkyria Chronicles. there are other good ones but nothing great here's hoping it's awsome
