The beautiful but poorly-received Square Enix turn-based action-RPG The Last Remnant is set to arrive on PC in “spring 2009″. The game hasn’t done well at review om them there consoles, criticised for typically long and rambling cutscenes, and poor battle mechanics. There’s no word on any PC-specific features, other than the Unreal 3 engine looking even more sparkly on high-end systems. I’ve posted the most recent – and rather attractive in that plastic JRPG way – trailer after the jump, although it’s neither PC-specific, nor particularly illustrative of in-game activity…. Or perhaps it is.

FFVII on the PSOne was era-defining.
I agree with that. It defined an era of JRPGs as games more interested in showing flashy FMVs and with crap plots tailored to children and idiots, than in offering actual engaging gameplay and story.
^This.
I can honestly recomend FF6 to just about anyone, but almost all of the other FF titles strike me as a stagnant pile of refuse.
