In my opinion, it’s between three games. Mass Effect 2, Final Fantasy, that this years underdog, Resonance of Fate.

Now everyone has talked about the first two to death, so I thought I’d draw your attention to the latter.

Developed by Tri-Ace and Published by Sega, the game is set to be released in the second half of 2010. This game hasn’t been given so much press so don’t worry if you haven’t heard of it – it’s a real underdog at this point.

Originally called End of Eternity in Japan, the game takes place in the future. Much like in Star Ocean, the Earth’s atmosphere and environment has changed for the worse. Once again like Star Ocean, the human race as we knew it was close to extinction due to unfriendly gases sweeping our plane. The few humans that remained built a device titled Basel, which should hopefully solve the planets problems. Over the following months a class system starts to develop. The rich are able to live close to Basel, whilst the poor stay around the surrounding areas. Predictable, Basel starts to encounter a few problems – it’s my guess that the heroes are set to work out what’s gone wrong!

The game has three main characters; Zephyr, Vasheron and Leanne. Subject #20 also plays a rather important role.

Those lucky enough to go to Japan to play the demo early experienced one of the most complex battle systems known to date. However although one might view this as a negative – everyone was blown away. Apparently in an attempt to similar the game, no sword are present. Everyone uses different guns and explosives. Different weapons have different effects as the battle system incorporates two different kinds of attacks, and furthermore, two different types of damages.

Now until we get some more information, the details are a bit fogy, but this game in my opinion sounds like one to look out for. Check out the link below to see the Japanese demo in action.
