RPGs of the Week: Moonlighting Edition

Welcome to a new week and a new month!

There is a dinosaur-load of RPGs headed to various consoles this month, though this week is a little slow. Check it out for yourself below.

Here's what's coming out this week (March 1 - 6, 2010):

North America
Alganon – Quest Online – PC
Fallout Trilogy – Black Isle, Micro Forte, Interplay – PC
Lunar: Silver Star Harmony – GameArts, XSEED – PSP

Japan
.hack//LINK – CyberConnect2, Namco Bandai – PSP
Dragon Quest IV: Michibikareshi Mono-tachi (Ultimate Hits) – ArtePiazza, Square Enix – Nintendo DS
Dragon Quest V: Tenkuu no Hanayome (Ultimate Hits) – ArtePiazza, Square Enix – Nintendo DS
Dragon Quest IX: Hoshizora no Mamoribito (Ultimate Hits) – Level 5, Square Enix – Nintendo DS
Final Fantasy IV (Ultimate Hits) – Matrix, Square Enix – Nintendo DS
Gundam Network Operation 3 – Namco Bandai – PC
Keroro RPG: Kishi to Musha to Densetsu no Kaizoku – Namco Bandai – Nintendo DS
Pokemon Ranger: Hikari no Kiseki – Game Freak!, Nintendo – Nintendo DS

Europe
Sacred 2: Gold Edition – Ascaron, Deep Silver – PC
Star Wolves 3: Civil War – X-bow, 1C – PC

North America's most high-profile title is yet another remake of Lunar, this time for the PSP (GameArts really needs to make a new, good Lunar), yet another MMO, and a repackaging of the first three Fallout games.

Japan gets CyberConnect2's return to the .hack series, Namco Tales Studio's Keroro RPG (which does, in fact, play like a Tales of game with Keroro characters), and a new Pokemon Ranger title from Nintendo. Oh, and a small fortune in budget editions of Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy DS remakes.

Europe gets a Sacred 2 compilation for PC, and a spaceship RPG that I'd never heard of before.

Anything looking interesting to you?

I wish I could get Lunar, but I no longer have a PSP so it'll have to wait. Personally, I'm picking up FFXIII,Resonance of Fate, and Pokemon Soul Silver this month.
