I'm looking for some Fantasy/Sci-Fi RPGs to play.

Note: They must have American PS3 versions and their "list prices" (MSRP/SRP, not sales prices) must be $40.00 NEW or cheaper on Amazon.com.

Fantasy/Sci-Fi RPGs I already own:
Final Fantasy XIII
Star Ocean 4: The Last Hope

Ni no Kuni.

Fantasy RPG with all the visual, musical and emotional charm of a Studio Ghibli film (since they did animate it). For the most part, I found it excellent, with unbelievable attention to detail and creating a fully fleshed out, living, breathing world that I have rarely seen in a game. There were what I found to be a couple of missteps, but hey, you can get it for half of what you're willing to pay. I definitely liked it better than FF13 and 13-2. And one of the reviewers on Amazon does say it has elements of Star Ocean--though I've never played that, so I couldn't say.

Tales of Graces F.

The Tales series games are JRPGs to the letter. Anime-inspired, and filled with all the plot elements, cliches, and humor that comes with it. Heavily focused on character development. I also enjoyed the plot, that your opinion might vary. This series as a whole also have the best battle systems around, IMO.

I would recommend the newer Tales of Xillia as well, but it was just released in NA and costs $55-$60 atm.

Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition

The Mass Effect series, can't go wrong with that.

Eternal Sonata is a great JRPG that's often overlooked.

Valkyria Chronicles is doubtlessly a top PS3 exclusive game.
