Top 5 Most Anticipated RPG’s Not Named Final Fantasy
For the first part of this generation’s life cycle there was not a lot for the PS3 in terms of RPG’s. The PS3 now has a few gems with Valkyria Chronicles and Disgaea 3, as well as a former Xbox exclusive in Eternal Sonata. With age the PlayStation 3 seems like more attractive platform for RPG developers and publishers.
Next year marks a great year in terms of Role Playing Games with the big boys Square-Enix finally releasing Final Fantasy XIII, XIII Versus and XIV. While the Final Fantasy series keeps the series die hards happy it is not the only great up and coming RPG. But that is not the only great RPG to hit the PS3 next year and PlayStation LifeStyle will run down the 5 Most Anticipated RPG’s of 2010 that you need to keep an eye out for. These are in no particular order and few of these have yet to receive a US Release Date but we expect them to come in 2010.

3D Dot Game Heroes look fun, l can’t wait to play it
White Knight Chronicles takes the cake for me.
And I played Tales of Vesperia w/ a friend on 360….I thought it was very bland and annoying…though Tales of Symphonia might have just spoiled me
Still waiting on Tales of Vesperia…
I’m all about WKC myself.
I would have chosen Dragon Age : Origins myself but only because it’s a Dungeons & Dragons game. Who can say no to D&D?
^ i do believe most anticipated, means games not out here =P IE stateside
Resonance of Fate? Are people really excited for that game? Hmmmm…
But as long as 3D Dot and WKC are the top two, the other 3 does not matter.
good list, cant wait to lose myself repeatedly. Thank god for WKC
what about First Fantasy? Oh wait i made that one up.
White Knight Chronicles!!! Oh hell yeah! If any RPG on the PS3 can rival Final Fantasy then WKC will be it.
Before i read this article i hadn’t even heard of Resonance Of Fate before but it looks quite interesting……..i’ll be keeping my eye on that one.
Wait wait wait… no one cares about Star Ocean?
