Not a particularly new game, but have you tried Mass Effect? Your criteria is kind of open to almost anything.

Well if you're able to tie your shoes and make breakfast, you might also be able to do some research. Let's see. Go to a video game website, look where you are, first step done. What genres do you like (specifically)? Any existing franchises? Possible follow-through options right there. Just remember, the prequel to all thought processes involves turning your brain on.

You gave the following information.

  • Any genre.
  • Good story.
  • All systems.

Not really enough information to know what you like other than a "good story." Maybe if you actually provided some information and narrow down the huge list of games, it'd be helpful.

The best western RPGs to come out recently are Mass Effect, Fallout 3, Oblivion, and the Witcher.  Well, I'm sure I'm missing a few, but any of those would be a solid choice.

Maybe you should pick up older titles. I haven't tried it but lost odyssey for the 360 is only 20 bucks and i don't know how much tales of vesperia is but that was released a while ago.

Okay.  Do you like hack 'n' slash RPGs?  Tactical RPGs?  Turn-based?  Real time?  Open-ended?  Linear?  I mean, come on, man!

Mass Effect, Fallout 3, and The World Ends With You. If you shop at the right places you might be able to get them all together for 60 dollars.

What haven't you played recently? Good Story? With $60 buy Mass Effect, and Lost Odyssey. If both of those are only 20, pick up the Orange Box as well and play through HL2 and the episodes.

Fallout 3 would probably be the best option.

I'll list some good recent ones.

The Witcher: Enhanced Edition
Fallout 3
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Star Ocean: The Last Hope
Tales of Vesperia
Mass Effect
Lost Odyssey
Persona 4
Super Paper Mario (Hey, I liked it. <.<)
Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World

I'd consider recommending Eternal Sonata, too, but the story implodes and makes negative sense about three-quarters through the game.

I'd mostly agree, but stay away from Tales of Symphonia dawn of the new world. Do yourself a favor and just buy the original Gamecube Tales of Symphonia. Granted, I haven't played much of it, but its just not as good as the Gamecube game, which is, imo, one of the 5 best cube games. I wouldn't necessairily recommend Super Paper Mario or Eternal Sonata either.

Edit: I'll just make this easy:
The Witcher
Fallout 3
Tales of Vesperia
Mass Effect
Persona 3 FES or Persona 4
Tales of Symphonia

You can't go wrong with any of these

This is how I eBay.  Of course, it's easier if you just picked up your 360 in the last few weeks.

Everyone's already made good suggestions.  It'd help too, if we knew what you've already played/owned.

Check out Valkyria Chronicles on the PS3, too.  If you missed Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, that is a great game.  The story is good, and the characterization top notch.  If you've got a PS2 or backward compatible PS3, I recommend Dragon Quest 8: Journey of the Cursed King as well as Persona 3 FES.  And (as always) I'm pimping Dragon Quest 5 for the DS.
