All time best RPG for PS2

Gadzoox · Jun 21st, 2002, 11:15 PM

As some of you may know, I will be aquiring my first PS2 on June 24th of this year. I would like to get all your opinions on which game is the 'all time best RPG' that I should seriously consider getting as my 'awesome first PS2 game'.

Beretta55 · Jun 21st, 2002, 11:56 PM

well you could try to get final fantasy 10 and thats all i can think of.

DragonSphere · Jun 22nd, 2002, 12:22 AM

My answer would be the same: FFX. But other games like Dark Cloud and the Evergrace/Forever Kingdom series are pretty good in their own way too.

Gadzoox · Jun 22nd, 2002, 01:03 PM

Excellent, thank you.

Sword 4 Hire · Jun 22nd, 2002, 02:19 PM

There aren't too many good RPG's for PS2...the only one I really liked was FFX...but wait awhile and Xenosaga and Legaia: Duel Saga will come out...and those look good

Gadzoox · Jun 22nd, 2002, 11:20 PM

Will do.

IcyMourdor · Jun 23rd, 2002, 10:15 AM

As some good ones are already given, I'll give ones that I think should be avoided.

Eternal Ring- a first-person RPG all in real-time. The story is weak and is hard to find where to go next at some points.

Dark Cloud- This one is alright, but can get boring really REALLY fast. Always having to leave to buy powder so your faviorite weapon doesn't break. The bosses are too far inbetween. The story is a little weak. I still play it when I have nothing else to do though.

Gadzoox · Jun 23rd, 2002, 06:20 PM

Hmm... thanks for the help! I was going to get Dark Cloud too... now i wont, unless of course, I get bored.

Sword 4 Hire · Jun 23rd, 2002, 06:30 PM

Dark Cloud=Most repetetive RPG to date

Ice Cold · Jun 23rd, 2002, 08:05 PM

Is FFx close to the FFx demo?

Mercury Shadow · Jun 24th, 2002, 10:33 PM

Gadzoox, do yourself a favor and never buy Dark Cloud. It's a terrible rip off Zelda game that irritates Zelda fans worldwide. But Dark Cloud 2 looks a whole lot better, and looks like it's going in it's own path. The art looks nice.

Gadzoox · Jun 28th, 2002, 01:26 PM

Alright, thanks muchly for the warning!

Sword 4 Hire · Jun 28th, 2002, 04:46 PM

Yeah I agree...Dark Cloud 2 does look awesome...it's being cel-shaded right?

Infernal Mass · Jun 28th, 2002, 09:18 PM

yeah here's some pics

dark cloud is the same all the way thru but with a change of scene so ff10 id say atm is the rpg to buy. Dark Cloud 2 looks good judging by those pics.

Sword 4 Hire · Jun 29th, 2002, 03:08 PM

Those pics look awesome Kabuki!

BTW: Some other RPG's to look forward to for the PS2 this year would be, Grandia Xtreme, Breath of Fire V, Suikoden III, Star Ocean 3, and Wild Arms 3...wow a lot of sequals but I'm hyped about em!

And hell if none of those sound appealing make your own RPG with RPG Maker 2 commin out later this year.

RobHardo · Jul 1st, 2002, 10:19 AM

I know it would become a lost cause to try for but i would like the zelda series to come to ps2 but that will never happen so i will have to buy a homosexual gamecube just to play my favorite rpg

Gadzoox · Jul 2nd, 2002, 12:50 AM

<---(Cheapo)
*Will wait until FF10's price goes down a little.*

I'll be sure to check out those affore-mentioned games as well. Thanks!

Yeah, Zelda games on PS2 would kick serious arse... too bad these companies don't just merge and make everyone happy. I suppose that would cause a problem /somewhere/ though..

thenagan81 · Jul 11th, 2002, 06:58 PM

Well For God sake FF10 is easy the best but other choices would be like Dark Cloud and Shadow Of Dastiny just depends

gamedork · Jul 22nd, 2002, 06:35 AM

Give Shadow Hearts a go.
