Thousand Arms is a little PS1 RPG that was released in the US, back in 1999. The game developed by RED and published by Atlus, was distributed in a small amount of copies so by now in 2005, your best bet to get the game would be by going through Ebay. Thousand Arms is more…
The Legend of Dragoon is a role-playing game that had seemly everything going for it: Three plus years in development, a 100 + man development team working on its creation, a massive advertisement campaign, and a multimillion-dollar budget coming out of the deep financial pockets of Sony itself. With all of this behind it, what…
Old Classic Still Has Some Fire Left In It Suikoden wasn’t the PS1’s first RPG, but for all intent and purposes it should have been. Beyond the Beyond was the title that beat Suikoden out of the gates, and it was a god awful title that did nothing to elevate the genre into the 32…
1999 was a huge year for RPGs, games like FFVIII, Grandia, Suikoden 2 and Lunar, all were released in that year. So it is forgivable that most of you missed a great RPG, (an argument can be made by some that the game was the best RPG of that year) by the name of Star…
Lunar 2: Eternal Blue is a classic masterpiece, and in my opinion a game that has aged a bit better than FFVI. Lunar 2 is not only Working Designs greatest imported game but also master RPG developer Game Arts’ greatest RPG ever. Yes, some may claim that Game Arts’ Grandia is their biggest and mightiest…
THE FIRST AND THE FINEST Released for the Sega CD in 1992, Lunar: Silver Star Story was Game Arts’ first RPG title (and its best), and while the game seemed destined for obscurity thanks to sparse sales of Sega CD units, master publisher (now defunct), Working Designs, was kind enough to bring the game back…
The Granstream Saga is an RPG that every time I play (I have played through it 4 times now) angers me, because it is a game that had loads of potential to achieve greatness but the developers never seemed to followed through with their great ideas. The Granstream Saga was released in Japan in 1997…
Grandia was Sega Saturn’s answer to the PS’s FFVII, it was an RPG that was promised to eclipse any RPG before it, and while it’s not as good as FFVII, it comes close and it is one of those few RPGs that can be defined as a classic. Being that the Saturn was almost on…
Going by expectations FFIX was supposed to be the finest chapter on the series. Square has done with FFIX what they failed to do with FFVIII. They gave us a great RPG that may not surpass FFVII in my eyes, but does enough to stand tall alongside of it. Which means: Yes, go out and…
Every great long gaming series has one. Every series has a game that cannot match the standards of quality set by its predecessors. Every series has a black sheep and that’s exactly what Final Fantasy 8 is to the great, and legendary FF series. To start off, FF8 had a lot of hype to live…
