The game that many Wii owners wondered would ever reach us overseas. Seems like Europe (the place that is currently getting more Nintendo games than the US) is getting the game now titled Xenoblade Chronicles.

Anyway it seems like a US release is probable this time (or so I've heard). Now if we can only get The Last Story over here.

Indeed; I did know about this already.
It has smacks of generi-jrpg, but an action battle system is always nice - and the Wii could benefit from more RPGs.
Specs 'n' Headphones has been revamped! Check it, yo.
Thanks to Pik and Solink; they are sexy people.

you'd think disgaea would've never been released in the us, following that logic.
The terrain in this looks so sweet (though a bit expansive) though. Welp well.

Hells yes. Apparently, this is currently the highest-reviewed RPG in Japan, it's high points include its huge and expansive environments, the real-time combat, and the story, which is apparently very well written and avoids melodrama, unlike, say, Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts.

Indeed I love the beautiful environments in this game. I hate games that are brown or gray. This is lush and green.

Indeed, the environments are jaw-dropping. No environment on the 360 or PS3 has managed to impress me like this, believe it or not, and the sheer variety of beautiful environments puts any other open-world game to shame, I don't see either Skyrim having the fantasy equivalent of Niagara Falls.
