What RPG would you like to see come out?

And, for what system (console or PC)?

While your thinking about it, read the following article:

Tales of Eternia: Online Announced (PC)

By Jin Sakamoto | Oct. 5, 2004

Namco recently announced a new massively multiplayer online PC game, Tales of Eternia: Online. The development duties will be shared between Namco and Dwango, with Namco in charge of the graphics, direction, planning and Dwango responsible for the network code and online elements like server maintenance.

The game' s beta is scheduled to debut in Japan in the spring of 2005. The game' s world will be based on that of Tales of Destiny 2 (known in Japan as Tales of Eternia) and include all of the Tales series standards, like a cooking system and the classic realtime battle system, known as the Linear Motion Battle System. The plan calls for making a game within that specific Tales world that focuses on the delights of day-to-day living within a fantasy world yet also features the standard MMO elements. However, Namco plans to somehow distinguish the event scenes and adapt the series' well-known face chats to MMO chatting.

With a recent personnel shuffle at Namco' s North American headquarters, the company is taking chances on software like the Tales series, Baten Kaitos, Katamari Damacy and The Nightmare of Druaga. Given the success of Tales of Symphonia, it is more likely that the newly announced Tales games will also see release in North America. Namco had previously indicated a desire to make the Tales saga its premier RPG series in order to become an international RPG giant like Square Enix. As more Tales games have been made in this console generation than in the last two combined, this would be Namco' s first MMO and PC game, and it seems they are taking this endeavor quite seriously.
