Doug, you get to play Guild Wars yet? Great game and the fact that they don't have monthy fees, among other things that turn people off from MMORPGs.

It's a sweet game and despite my PC only running just above it's minimum specs, I'm still getting some sweet gameplay and eye candy.

I havent played it, as I dont usually play mainy PC titles, except for Battlefield 1942, which I love. However, my room mate plays it and I have watched it for a bit. It looked cool, as did/does W.O.W, but I am afraid I would lose touch with reality if I started up one of those games. Twisted Evil

Lol, and spending hours playing D7 doesn't. Laughing

Though at the moment, I only play Guild Wars in moderated doses. Can't go infringing on my Strategy Games turf too much. Twisted Evil Cool

Hmm, I've started playing and interesting RPG called Growlanser: Generations. It's got both Growlanser II and Growlanser III and I must say it's an interesting game. The graphics are a bit dated for the PS2, but so was Disgaea and that game will never leave my library of games.

It's a mix of Final Fantasy Tactics and a real time battle system. By real time, I'm meaning, you move and fight all in real time, though it's done on a time system, so you're character moves every x amount of time. It's easy to pickup, but there's a LOT of depth to the battles. You can utilize terrain to your advantage and execute some nasty attacks.

The story so far has been pretty good and it doesn't make me feel like it was too cliche, but then again, you can only do so much to be original without alienating your audience. Regardless, while it hasn't quite drawn me in as well as some RPGs have, this is shaping up to be a decent find.

Worth it at least in my opinion. Better if you can find a discounted copy. Cool

I love Growlanser, I played GL1, 2, and 3 in Japanese and have the Deluxe Edition in English Smile

The character artist is the same guy who did another of my favorite sRPG series: Langrisser.

Aren't they part of the same series though? Or am I just getting my info crossed?

While this game isn't yet slated for stateside release (unfortunately), I'm looking forward to seeing how [eM] -eNCHANT arM- for the XBox 360 plays out. It looks really well done and from what I hear, it's using the Unreal Engine.

I've watched some trailers and gameplay videos (all in Japanese) and it's looking like you're standard Final Fantasy type game (Turn Based Battles, I think), but regardless I think it's a definite game to watch.

Aside from myself wanting to play it, as well as many others I'm sure, I hope that this game comes over because the last gen XBox didn't get many RPGs and I am hoping the 360 will change that trend. While I still will probably get a PS3, I want to get one just so I can play RPGs. Confused

Missed your question SemperFi. They are considered (by those in the know) to be spiritually related but that is only because of the artist. I do not believe there are any cross references between the two games. I didn't notice any and I played almost all the way through every Langrisser game and every Growlanser game. Then again, years separated those plays and I don't have a good head for video game stories or character names.

On the way to me are both Growlanser IVs from Japan. They should be here sometime next week.
