Square-Enix have just revealed the list of games that they will be showing off at this year's E3. One of the most interesting titles on the list is Song Summoner: The Unsung Heroes, which is said to be the first full-scale RPG created for the iPod. Here's the full list, with details:

Multiplatform:

The Last Remnant, which is to be released here this Winter for the 360, with a PS3 release date yet to be announced.

Xbox 360:

Infinite Undiscovery, which is scheduled to be released in September this year.

Star Ocean: The Last Hope, which is a new entry in the series, and is currently a 360 exclusive, though it's likely to be timed as the developers haven't announced exclusivity.

PSP:

Star Ocean: First Departure, which is a port of the original game in the series. Release date TBC.

Star Ocean: Second Evolution, which is a continuation of the series. Release date TBC.

DS:

Chrono Trigger, an enhanced remake of the original classic game.

Dragon Quest: Chapters Of The Chosen, a brand new entry in the Dragon Quest series, set to be released here in September.

Final Fantasy IV, which is a remake of the original game, featuring 3D graphics. Release date TBC.

Exit DS, a new game in the Exit series made specifically for the DS. Release date TBC.

The Legend of Kage 2, which currently has no release date.

iPod:

Song Summoner: The Unsung Heroes, which is a new RPG only for the iPod. It's currently available to buy off the iTunes store, and is compatible with iPod nanos with video, as well as iPod classic and fifth generation iPods.

There's certainly a good number of games on the way, so there'll be plenty to see at E3, great news indeed. There is a distinct lack of anything exclusively for the PS3 though, so it would seem that SE are holding off on showing FFXIII and any other games until their Square-Enix Party this year, and/or possibly the Tokyo Game Show.

I would have thought they'd be working on games for the iPhone/Touch rather than old iPods with the click wheel.

Me too, but hey, it's their choice. I suppose they think there's more people with those models than there are with the Touch and iPhone.

Song Summoner sounds pretty awesome, though.

Both of the 360 games will hopefully wake up a few people in the Asian region to what Microsoft is trying to offer them. Lost Odyssey didn't seem to do the trick.

What do you mean by both? Star Ocean won't be "exclusive" for long, everybody agrees on that.

Looking forward to the DS games. FFIV is my favourite in the series, and new Dragon Quest is a good thing. I can't believe it's due in September either, I thought it would be a long way off. It will arrive before the remakes? WTF?

Yeah, I can't wait for Dragon Quest IX (not that they've ended up calling it that), its been quite a while since it was announced. It's going to be great! As for arriving before the remakes, well its been in development for much longer, so it's to be expected.

Everybody except Square Enix? =)

Seriously to me that article is screaming "Square Enix says no, but if we pretend they mean yes, maybe it will happen..."

I'm not really surprised Lost Odyssey didn't grab the Asian market. Since a lot of JRPGs are currently showing more innovation in making the battle system more involving and different, the battle system for Lost Odyssey is pretty bland. Granted, this wouldn't be such a problem in itself (as FF and other games (Suikoden, Atelier Iris...) still have the standard turn-based party system) but the battle system is extremely slow. It takes about 15 seconds from when the encounter initiates to actually be in the battle and then the battle itself takes ages even against weak monsters. Thankfully the story and the characters are good enough to keep you playing.

I'm more surprised Eternal Sonata didn't grab them: that RPG was fantastic.

I'll probably get every game they make on the consoles. I'm a bit wary of their DS titles though, a fair few have been disappointing.
