While not a Console game, this is the best cinematic system i have ever played bar none that inspires the imagination and has a unique and very fantasy-esque world. Be aware again, this is a table top game (or those that don't understand, its with rule books, pencils and paper with characters represented by various stats (physical, mental and Social) and Dice (all 10 sided thanks to the White Wolf Story teller system)
I was a fan of hte first edition when it came out, tho it took me some time to grasp the actual depth of this world. Exalted is set in a world thats ont he decline, a shadow of what it formally once was. Typically one will play a returning champion of the Gods, a Solar exalted. Solar exalted however, were only now just returning from a long absence, as their former selves were overthrown by the servants that served them some two millenia previous.
What strikes me most is the actaul character creation and combat. Yiu can weild artifacts of old fromt he start, have an army at yiur command, access to huge amounts of wealth, have powerful allies, weild powerful spells and have abilities that allow you to crush stone with your bare hands, leap tall buildings ina single jump... woo kings with your social prowess... its the actual depth it gives to your character that brings this system to life in my eyes.
Just thought i'd share my thoughts on here.
