Console RPGs have come a long way in the last 20 years. GameZone Writer's Block takes a look at what the future holds for the genre in three areas (dialogue, combat, and story) with four titles (Mass Effect, White Knight Story, BioShock, and Fable 2.)

The Outerhaven writes: Being fans of Fable, we decided to do an in-depth retrospective on the Fable franchise, exploring its choices, consequences, tone, and lasting impact on RPG design.

Bioware writes: "Like you, we’ve heard the rumors lately. You’ve made it clear you care deeply about what’s next. So let’s start by setting the record straight: the next Mass Effect game is in development, and EA and BioWare remain committed to telling more stories in this universe."
I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed
Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.
So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?
Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”
Star Ocean 4 and FFVXIII? At least they're worth mentioning...
Because the only thing new about them is there graphics or gameplay. RPGs, like White Knight Story, Mass Effect, and Fable2 are doing different things.
Mark my words, this is the declineing start of jRPGs!!! Especially later in this generation than the next, wRPGs will be way better than jRPGs.
