There definitely seems to be a rebirth in the Role-Playing genre. Xbox 360 has many upcoming RPG titles, and it has never been a RPG based console. The DS receives another remake of a classic Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy IV was just released for the Nintendo DS, now making the DS light the RPG console of choice. Already hosting a cast of classic RPG’s, FFIV is considered the beginning of teenage angst and melodrama in RPG’s. Story, being the main driving point in FFIV, captures the player unexpectedly. Cecil, a Dark Knight, begins the game on a quest for his power hungry king. He is also joined by Cain, a dragoon. Cecil and Caine’s story is a great one, and many other exciting characters join (and leave) the party. This is a must have for RPG lovers and DS owners. The graphics are completely revamped and have a nice coat of 3D paint applied to it. Famed composer, Nobuo Umaetsu reworks the classic music. Also the characters are based on the original artwork of Tetsuya Nomura. Square has also ported Final Fantasy III to DS which was never released into America. Time to start saving money for a DS.

I’ve always felt overwhelmed when looking at the Final Fantasy universe. There are so many chapters in it, and I just feel that if I ever jumped in on one of the games, I’d be lost.
Well I am looking for a RPG for my new DS so it’ll be one of the FF.
Oh, Thank God.
