TGS 09: RPGs of 2010

RPGs is the only genre that’s been missing in this generation. When the PlayStation, PlayStation 2, and Gamecube was released in the market, the RPG was a big boom to both North American and Japanese gamers. As we approach the 2010, we can finally say that the RPG genre will make a come back really soon.

In this year’s Tokyo Game Show, there are plenty of RPGs that we can expect in 2010 across all platforms. Let’s take a look:

– (PS3) Final Fantasy XIII
– (PS3) Resonance of Fate
– (PS3) Atelier Rorona (Coming Spring 2010 in NA)

  1. demon souls will be epic but i doesn’t belong on this list because this list is for games coming in 2010 not 2009.

  2. incomplete list, titles coming on the wii 2010 are:
    Red Steel 2
    New Zelda
    Monster Hunter Tri~
    Super Mario Galaxy 2
    Sin & Punishment 2
    Tatsunoko vs Capcom
    Metroid Prime M
    No More Heroes 2
    Dragonology
    + more… i will definitely love Nintendo by 2010…

  3. @real deal

    none of the games you listed are RPGs so i have no clue why you even bothered to write them..

    also where’s front mission evolved for ps3 & xbox360? and wild arms 6 [haven’t checked if the rumor has been confirmed or not, but just in case it has…]

  4. @real deal

    “Red Steel 2
    New Zelda
    Monster Hunter Tri~
    Super Mario Galaxy 2
    Sin & Punishment 2
    Tatsunoko vs Capcom
    Metroid Prime M
    No More Heroes 2
    Dragonology”

    none of those games are rpgs….

  5. The PS3 list is missing a bunch of games.

    It’s missing:

    Trinity of Szo by Tecmo/Koei
    Last Rebellion by NIS
    Trinity Universe (Disgaea/Atelier universes) by NIS
    Dot Game heroes

    and I assume you should list Tales of Vesparia as well, which while hasn’t been officially announced for NA probably be coming as well.

    Since you listed Mass Effect/Fable 3 I’ll assume then that you should at that MMO DC Universe as well.

  6. my problem is what system to play the 2 most important RPGs that only matter to me: RoF & FF13 coz they both appear on 360 & PS3
