I really liked a lot of Eternal Sonata but I couldn't stand the battle system. I wish I had made it through that game.

I played the very first Atelier game (Iris) to death and just bought the first game in the Dusk series in hopes that I can rekindle the love. The second game on PS2 I couldn't get into so I stopped playing despite buying Grand Phantasm.

I have Eternal Sonata on the 360.  I was going to get Time and Eternity, but I read too many bad reviews on it.  I plan to get it when I see it real cheap.

I think those RPGs are an acquired taste.  I didn't really get into any of them.  But one PS3 game that seems to get forgotten, but I loved, is the action RPG 3-D Dot Game Heroes.

I've never heard of Of Orcs and Men. I think it's cool that they made the men the bad guys! I love the soundtrack for Time and Eternity. I wrote a blog about it, actually.
