Mine has shipped from gamestop!! I hope i get it in time to play a bit this weekend.
As for current gen RPG's...I couldn't get into Blue Dragon and Eternal Sonata, although beautiful to look at, just turned me off for some reason. I think the story seemed too sappy and sad or something. I didn't get far.
But, for me, Lost Odyssey is hands down the best RPG in a long time. Freaking LOVED that game. Can't count out Mass Effect, but it seems like the discussion is primarily about JRPG's.
