Well, for starters, everyone loves a Dragon. Game of Thrones has proven it, and so has the Hobbit. Each character brings a different skill or ability to the table. Add nine characters to your party and sit back as they all gain points from battles, even though you can only take four into the fight.
Choose from three different classes and discover special skills such as shape shifting or being good with herbs… not the type you put in pasta dishes, however. Resonance of Fate takes the 12th spot on our list of the best PS3 RPG games of all time, an exciting title that sees humanity moving to a machine city.
The earth as we know it is a toxic mess, so everyone moves to Basel. Charge up attacks and pull them off at the exact right moment to deal the most damage.
Collect bezels to pull off Hero attacks as you take down enemies through this bleak and dreary, yet incredibly interesting, mechanical city. An old demon has been awakened, and now a terrible mist is causing monsters to appear left, right, and centre, causing havoc and stopping people from enjoying their cornflakes in peace. Like Gauntlet: Dark Legacy, gamers chose from different classes of fighters as they move through levels destroying anything that looks remotely undead.
Collect souls and trade them for pretty much everything. Use them to buy weapons, learn new spells, or up specific stats such as defence and attack points. I love the gloomy medieval dungeons and moody graphics in this game. Any title that revolves around a Golem War that destroyed the entire earth needs to be taken seriously.
The Golems are now obsolete and the war has ended, but as usual, some nitwit is trying to bring them back to life again. Cue another war and all their hard work going to the dogs. Players control an apprentice enchanter called Atsuma as he tries to stop the Golems from bringing about the end of humanity. Battles are random which is kind of annoying if you need to get somewhere quickly, but the Fire Emblem-style gridded battlefields are a joy to play through.
Use long range or close attacks depending on how close you are to your enemy, and make Golems that can do your bidding. Yeah baby; the Golems can fight for the good side too. It has an Altered Carbon feel to it, with pretty much everyone fighting against each other in a world where people upgrade themselves more than they upgrade their phones.
If you like your games with a spot of chaos and conspiracy and a dash of insane weaponry thrown in, then Deus Ex could well be up your futuristic, biomechanics street! While Sony's 7th generation console could not match its immediate two predecessors in terms of JRPGs, the PlayStation 3 is still home to some brilliant titles.
Along with returning franchises like Final Fantasy and Tales, this era saw the release of many one-off games that sought to blend the familiar with something slightly more unusual. Luckily, there is always the option to revisit old generations and experience titles that were originally missed.
While the PS3's JRPG roster is arguably not as strong as its two predecessors, Sony's system still produced plenty of delightful games that should satisfy both newcomers and veterans of the genre. Some of these JRPG also did not get too much attention upon their initial release. Enchanted Arms is a deeply flawed game that comes with one major positive: a create-'em-all system featuring golems.
With dozens upon dozens of creatures waiting to join your ranks, Enchanted Arms provides just enough rewards to be entertaining. The turn-based combat uses a grid system that allows room for experimentation and strategies, even if the battles themselves can be rather dull. Enchanted Arms' plot is nothing special and features mostly bad voice acting, but the progression loop is enjoyable.
The Neptunia games tend to be polarizing, but they do offer something of a respite from the genre's usually overly serious tone. While Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory is slightly darker than most of the franchise's other entries, it still contains plenty of humor, gaming references, and over-the-top shenanigans. The characters are also pretty endearing, particularly the four main Goddesses.
The combat system is fast-paced, deceptively deep, and satisfyingly flashy. Unfortunately, the repetitive and bland dungeons leave a lot to be desired. A crossover between the Atelier and Disgaea franchises, Trinity Universe is mainly for those who have always yearned to see Pamela interact with Etna.
Viewed on its own, Trinity Universe is a serviceable turn-based JRPG that has a cool setting, plenty of content, and likable protagonists. Trinity Universe does move at a rather glacial pace, so some patience is required. While Cross Edge features a larger roster of characters from other franchises, Trinity Universe is overall the better game. Created by Nippon Ichi Software, The Guided Fate Paradox features similar grid-based gameplay to the Disgaea license; however, its roguelike structure separates it from the studio's more popular property.
A lighthearted and frequently funny story gives way to a dungeon crawler that can be crushingly difficult. Although technically a first-person shooter, New Vegas also qualifies as a role-playing game due to its intricate storyline and the fact that your choices significantly alter future events as you move forward. In addition to battling with a large array of weapons at your disposal, you can also gamble in one of the game's many casinos or roadside games.
It is Vegas, after all, apocalypse or not. An action-style RPG that takes place in the next century, you assume the role of a soldier who teams up with an organization focused on saving the human race, as entire colonies are being abducted without explanation. Almost two dozen weapon types are available as you embark on a seemingly impossible mission, working alongside some of the galaxy's most ruthless warriors while traveling in a powerful ship.
Most gameplay is accessible sans connectivity, the exceptions being multiplayer adventures or hosting your own campaigns using the integrated Obsidian toolset. With your body draped in scars and tattoos gathered over many lifetimes, you and your companions roam the demon-ridden city of Sigil looking for answers. You and your motley crew of adventurers are tasked with rescuing the city of Skara Brae, with foes lurking around every corner.
The anticipation that builds during the turn-based battles, as well as wondering what awaits you behind each door and dungeon gate, will quickly make you forget that you're playing a game that was developed in a different generation. A true work of art in every sense, this is the crown jewel of the Elder Scrolls franchise.
If you're into open-ended games with massive worlds to traverse, this is the title for you. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the individual blades of grass to the captivating sunsets.
Whether wielding a sword or a satchel of spellbooks, the first-person battle system has a realistic, intense feel to it. Also, because of the diverse character creation tools, the game can be played multiple times from a number of angles. Winner of over Game of the Year awards at the time of its release, this open-world RPG places you in the role of professional monster hunter.
This visually stunning title encourages freeform exploration as you conduct your bounty hunter business, mixing it up with everyone from society's elite to bands of marauding criminals.
Doing battle with the game's vast bestiary is where Wild Hunt really shines, though, and preparing for each skirmish is just as important an element as the actual fights themselves. Platform: PlayStation 3. Peace is but a memory. In the wake of the Noble Faction's occupation of Heimdallr, civil war has broken out across Erebonia.
The provincial armies, loyal to the aristocracy and the Four Great Houses, have claimed many of the nation's great cities in the name of the Noble Alliance.

Metascore: User Score: 8. At the elite Thors Military Academy, Erebonias best and brightest learn everything from the art of war to the liberal arts.
Rean Schwarzer, a new student, learns that hes been selected as a member of the newly-minted Class VII, made up of students from both noble and commoner backgrounds. Class VII has no shortage of issues to overcome, but Rean and his classmates will have to work past their differences and hone their skills, because theyll need more than just top marks to make the grade theyll need to safeguard their country from those who would plunge it into war.

The battle system incorporates strategy and speed, the time management system is free from restrictions allowing for unlimited play time and Alchemy RPG fans can look forward to a straightforward menu in the engaging Synthesis system. In Atelier Shallie: Alchemists of the Dusk Sea players choose to play as either the reserved, mission-focused Shallistera, daughter of a tribal leader who embarks on voyage to find a solution to a crisis affecting her homeland, on behalf of her ailing father or ambitious, energetic Shallotte, who has been struggling to bring success to the alchemy workshop since the passing of her father.

The player can interchange between both pairs and soon discover a way to combine their storylines and strengths to eventually solve the mystery that shrouds their ongoing struggle.
Because they were equally matched, they both created a vast number of special weapons imbued with their godly energy, each containing the life force of a fairy. Armed with these weapons, the deities continued their conflict until they finally sealed each other away into the great unknown.
Since then much time has passed. The weapons left behind by the Goddess and the Vile God are now known as "Furies". The warriors who wield those weapons are known as "Fencers". Due to their immense power, rumor has it that anyone who collects the Furies will have their wish granted. For this reason, Fencers have fought among themselves over possession of the Furies for countless years. As luck would have it, a young man named Fang has acquired one of the Furies.
