Good PS1/2 RPGs?
I'm looking for a good RPG for my friend, something like Vagrant Story, or anything a FF7 fan would enjoy.
Budget is around $30 by Ebay. Narrow it down to one choice if you can. |

Re: Good PS1/2 RPGs?
Legend of Dragoon is one of the best RPG's I have ever played. It tops FF for me.
If you're more into like...FFtactics. Than the obvious choice is Disgaea, but that will be hard to find cheap. I currently have over 500 hours on my Disgaea save. |

Any of the Dragon Warrior (Quest) series.
I suggest Dragon Warrior 7.

Although if you're not into dungeon crawling don't get it Disgaea is also a good one if you play long enough and do the things they offer you might end up with some pretty big numbers

Re: Good PS1/2 RPGs?
I'm leaning more towards PS1 games since they're cheaper and classic and such.
Right now I've got it narrowed down to Xenogears, Vagrant Story, or Chrono Cross. |

Especially those few cut scenes where the graphics were like O_O. Pretty crazy plot twists too. |

Re: Good PS1/2 RPGs?
Squeek recommended Tales of the Abyss (PS2) to me. I listened and enjoyed. And it only cost me like 20-25 bucks, IIRC.
I'm sure he'll post a link to an awesome vid in here eventually. Edit: I second Ogre Battle but it's no normal RPG (I hesitate to call it that, even).

Re: Good PS1/2 RPGs?
well FF9 was one of the best final fantasies, and one of the most enjoyable RPGs for me.

Re: Good PS1/2 RPGs?
Well since Ravia already said the Shadow Hearts games, i'm gonna have to go with a few of the ones I think are classics. Koudelka, Legend of Legaia, Suikoden, Grandia2, Alundra2, and Breath of Fire 4 to keep the list short.

Re: Good PS1/2 RPGs?
I'll say Phantom Brave, it's like Disgaea, but with a more touching story, and also because most of the RPG's I'd want to say have already been taken.
