[Bad Religion]

That's a solid list. I never played Earthbound or Blue Dragon. Only got 5 hours into Lost Odyssey. 

LOVED Eternal Sonata. First great RPG experience with my PS3. Ni No Kuni was also extremely good. Missed it in my HM.

I liked Pokemon, but I only ever played Red.

 

[suberzat1]

Enjoyed Tales of Symphonia on GC but not top ten for JRPG

Did you not like LO? I felt like it was very underrated. I think infirm would have been a PS3 title it would have did better. That's the last console game I've played that felt like a traditional FF game imo.

 

[ciscokid]

Wtf happened to that level 5 game?

 

[Ricky D]

Yeah I was wondering that too. I doubt it'll be announced at Paris Games Week so that only leaves PSX.

I think I'd rather have dark cloud 3 over ni no kuni 2. Would be happy with either tho

 

[Ricky D]

I gotta go with NNK 2 since I haven't played the previous Dark Cloud games. I think NNK is great minus the horrible AI system. I wouldn't mind a continuation of the first game but with a darker tone.

iYen I got that same email. That date is a Monday and we don't even have a release date for FF XV which is confirmed for 2016

Konami ceases triple-A console production on all but PES - report

Konami has ceased all triple-A console game production on everything but Pro Evolution Soccer and there are currently no plans for a big new Metal Gear game, while worldwide technology directr Julien Merceron has left the company. That's according to a pair of reports on French site Gameblog. Eurogamer understands both reports to be true.

Gameblog wrote yesterday that Merceron was apparently unhappy with Konami's transition away from the console market towards mobile games.

Beyond Metal Gear Online - the separate online component to Metal Gear Solid 5 that is currently being finished - and Pro Evolution Soccer 2016, Konami has a blank triple-A slate. It does however have the licence to the football tournament Euro 2016, so we'd expect it to make use of that.

Noteworthy Konami iP's

Metal Gear
Bloody Roar
Yu-Gi-Oh
Silent Hill
Suikoden
Castlevania
Zone of the Enders

Yu-gi-oh is the only safe one since the recent game did well but we might not see any of the above again.

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

No more Castlevania or Metal Gear would be stupid. Sell both of those IP's to Naughty Dog.

 

[Ricky D]

They should just let Koji Igarashi get Castlevania. He's the only one I would trust with that IP.

I need red dead redemption 2 ASAP

or they need to remaster the first one.

R* remastering any of their past gen games

Oh how we could all wish & dream for...but it ain't happening.

 

[Fozz]

I really enjoyed Red Dead Redemption 2. Hopefully, they make a new one?

I want them to make a new LA Noire.

  I loved how the film was set in 1940's Los Angeles. (History nerd)

 

[9th Wonder]

I want them to make a new LA Noire.

Technically it's just Red Dead Redemption... The first installment was Red Dead Revolver

 

[Ricky D]

LA Noire is getting a spiritual sequel from Team Bondi called W hore of the Orient. It was suppose to release this year but it's probably cancelled.

 

[9th Wonder]

Funny how similar our top 10 JRPG lists are!

 

[swendro]

I just wish Kojima could take Fox Engine with him.

All that work for one game just isn't fair.
