Good RPG's for ps2

[B16a2 Civic]

due to recent gas prices increasing, im looking fo a good rpg to play.
any games you can suggest

[{X}Echo419]

FF7-9(I know it's PS1 but still bad ass)
FFX!
FFX2
the Metal Gear series isn't RPG but I think you might enjoy them.
FF=Final Fantasy

[B16a2 Civic]

Yeah, i think teh last ff i played was with the one going back in time, with the Aarian (sp) and some otha folks, i think it was 9 or 10, i forget, it was years ago while my liscense was suspended LIRL

[HyPer50]

If you haven't played FFVII then you gotta play that one... it's the best one ever... I also really like FFVIII. I'm sure there's some more good ones out there, but as a general rule FF > all other console RPGs.

[B16a2 Civic]

yea 7 was with Cloud, best story line
8 was with Squall right? when they find out they orphans or whatever
i think i skipped 9, the one with the lil kids and played 10 with the one where you in that village, and you can play that oen soccer like game?
thats where i stopped

I can't remember the dudes name, but 8 is the one the main guy has the gunsword and it's kind of western themed but not very... I can't remember his name... most people regard it as one of the "worst" (if you can call any FF that) FF games for ps... but I thought it was pretty bad ass heh.

[B16a2 Civic]

yeah, that was the one, i thoguht it was fun too, i just need to find somethin else to play, my friend was playin the ff on xbox 360 where its online, looks fun

[HyPer50]

Eh... it's ok as long as you dont go into the game expecting it to be anything similar to Final Fantasy... cause it's not... nothing like the Final Fantasy series.

Yeah, i dont know if you had dreamcast and played Phantasy Star Online, its real similiar

[HyPer50]

only RPG i played on DC was Grandia 2, and I loved it heh.

[{X}Echo419]

Dream Cast FTW!!!

[B16a2 Civic]

Dream Cast FTW!!!

hell yeah

Marvel Vs Capcom 2.
i forgot that other rpg game, it was like this martial arts thang, the game started with a S

[B16a2 Civic]

found it
Shenmue
ahhh, that game was ill

[MachNU]

LOL FFVII was the ultimate game, soon as you beat you can restart it that same day you beat it. But i agree i never did like number 8 but 9 to me was right up there with 7, i played 9 countless times, and it just game a new fill to the game to me.

[B16a2 Civic]

which one was #9? with teh lil kids?

[B16a2 Civic]

i wanna play somethin fun again, like a ff7, ff8, ff10 or Breath of Fire

[MachNU]

which one was #9? with teh lil kids?

yeah and i think it had a DAM good plot line. ALso there was lots of sid quests to do in that game that made it real fun. :dunno:

but if you want soem real fun games to play that you can play over nad over again and with friends, i recommend the Acecombat Games!

thats the thing, im tryna stay home when im bored from nwo on, i usuallyd rive around when im bored and i dont feel like paying all this money for gas when i can play a good game.
i got alot of milti player games, i just want a solo one.
i might check out ff9, i never thought it would be fun, but i guess it might be

[B16a2 Civic]

can anyone tell me the basic story line for ff9?

[HyPer50]

dunno bout the story, but I got a video of the game on my myspace page thats pretty cool. http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=675088642&n=2 Thats FFIX

[Wurm]

Hmmm i play The Bard's Tale sometimes its pretty good rpg

[B16a2 Civic]

ahh ok, the Bards Tale?
whats that about? like futuristic rpg, old school?

[rolling_trip]

the latest dragonquest game was pretty good. or you can try xenosaga

[MachNU]

can anyone tell me the basic story line for ff9?

THis one is a better one becuase its alot of thigns where you dont really have a complete main char you thing kinda jumps around whn your party spilts up. I recommend you play it i think it had a great plot line and wa an interesting spin on the FF series!

[B16a2 Civic]

i was exhausted playinxenosaga , never really liked how it was set up, i might try it again, imma go to gamestop and buy alot of used rpg games

[MachNU]

get FF9 it is a relaly good game that will take up alot fo your time!

[Outphase]

Star Ocean: Til the End of Time
Onimusha 4
Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2
Final Fantasy XI
Gran Turismo 4 (Simulation mode could be an RPG, lol)

[Wurm]

The bards is a old school style rpg

[B16a2 Civic]

thanks for all teh suggestions guys, imma check em out
i might play star ocean again, i beat it once but i remember it has alot of endings

[{X}Echo419]

big heads small bodies, kinda. wern't supposed to be kids. Zidane was the Hero Princes Garnet(sp) was the chick

[B16a2 Civic]

so the main person is a female?

[Stormhammer]

Kingdom Hearts 2 FTW!

[MachNU]

so the main person is a female?

no pretty much the main theme is you being Zidane being the hero, chasing after the princess Garnet. But its cool how your partys sometimes split up and you play two or three different rea at one time, makes the game fun!

[illeagle]

if you really wanna go back you should try FF 6 for SNES(or the PS remix) and Chrono Trigger...that was Squaresoft at its finest

oh and Super Mario RPG was the shit!, too bad they dont have a remake to that

[{X}Echo419]

Star Ocean: Til the End of Time
Onimusha 4
Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2
Final Fantasy XI
Gran Turismo 4 (Simulation mode could be an RPG, lol)

Star Ocean! if you don't have anything else to do for the rest of your life.

[B16a2 Civic]

LIRL, i ended up buyin dragon quest vii, they only had ff8, and i didnt wanna play that again

[MachNU]

they not have ff9?

[B16a2 Civic]

nope, only had ff8.
i forgot all that was on ps1 LIRL, i was lookin in the ps2 section till i asked

[Ran]

Depending on if you like strategy style RPGs, I could recommend the following:

Final Fantasy Tactics (PS1, but good stuff)
Disgaea
Makai Kingdom
Suikoden Tactics
Harvest Moon: Back to Nature (PS1 version. The PS2 version sucks)

If none of you guys have ever played Harvest Moon, then you need too.

Yes, it's a farming game.
Yes, it's an RPG.
Yes, it does seem really gay when you first look at it.

But Holy Hell this game is addictive as crack. Build a farm, plant crops, raise animals, expand your house, get married, have a kid, go to festivals, and do side tasks all in a family-fun environment.

:D

[{X}Echo419]

anybody ever play Shining Force(or SF 2) on the Sega Genesis?

[B16a2 Civic]

i just noticed, i have dragon quest 8 not 7, Journey of teh Cursed King

[illeagle]

anybody ever play Shining Force(or SF 2) on the Sega Genesis?

i still do :)


and dragon quest got kinda boring to me

[B16a2 Civic]

this is my first time playing dragon quest, the guy at EB games said its straight forward rpg, nothing complicated like Xenosaga, thats basically what i was lookign for, said it was a good storyline too

[NinjaHobo]

you should check out the eternal blue series. they were ps1, but they were quality. also the .hack series for ps2 is also quality.

[Xan]

Boxing games do me in. I'm addicted to Fight Night Round 3 ATM. Dragon Quest 8 is good even though I hate DBZ. I played FF8 all the way through and loved it. Advent Children is out now. Badass movie.

eyah, i love Fight Night round 3, especially counter haymakers, but its really fun when you play against a homie.
ii been playin Dragon Quest for about 2 days, its fun

[St0lenR]

Kingdom Hearts 2 FTW!

x2

[illeagle]

lol...went to go buy FFVII cause I havent played it in forever. nobody around here has it, and when I looked on ebay that shit is 60-130 bucks...FUCK THAT!!!

[Dark.GEAR]

wow...surpising no1 mentioned some really underrated rpgs...

Xenogears (PS1 but easily is the BEST of all the Xenos and BEST rpg *at least for me*)
Chrono Cross(PS1)
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne (PS2)
Shadow Hearts series (PS2)
Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 1&2 (PS2)
Breath of Fire V: Dragon Quarter (PS2 really really difficult but very unique and a one of a kind rpg)
Vagrant Story (PS1)
Final Fantasy Anthology (PS1 or go back to the SNES)

These are just some that I can name off the top of my head...
FF series is good and all but some of these games could easily top them...

I'm pretty sure you won't be disappointed with anyone of these...:goodjob:

[Flip]

I don't have any advice for which ones to get seeing as I just bought a PS2, but i just wanted to add that i got FF10 so I'll be playing that as my first RPG ever... I've never really had any other real games system before except for nintendo when i was younger and i didn't really play it that much. I think i had a ps1 for a little bit but only played worms word party on it every once in a while but that was it... I'm excited :D
