The JRPG Gods Have Answered: Suikoden 1 & 2 are Getting Remastered

Posted on September 22, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

The Suikoden series has been dead for over a decade. Slow sales of traditional JRPGs during the tail end of the PlayStation 2 era played a part in the franchise’s demise. And yet, not all hope is lost. Konami announced last week that a remastered bundle of the Suikoden I & II is coming in…

Games That Will Cost You a Kidney: Suikoden II

Posted on May 16, 2022June 10, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

Konami’s Suikoden is a respected franchise within the Japanese role-playing game genre. The series has been dead in the west for about a decade and a half as its last title Suikoden V was release in 2006 to little fanfare.   As it often happens with dead role-playing game series, its older titles gain monetary…

Throwback Bit Thursday: Suikoden IV

Posted on March 4, 2021March 4, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

The Suikoden series. The mere mention of the name “Suikoden” will draw hardcore JRPG fans out of the woods, and into epic ramblings about how great the first two titles were. Personally, the third iteration of the series remains my favorite one.   Suikoden V would end up being the last title in the long running…

Throwback Bit Thursday: Suikoden

Posted on December 3, 2020January 5, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

Released in 1996 on the original PlayStation, Suikoden found commercial (on a small scale), and critical success nearly a year before Final Fantasy VII opened the mainstream market for games in the genre. For many PlayStation owners, Suikoden was their first RPG on the system. To others, their first good RPG on the systems as Beyond…

Konami Trademarks Suikoden, and Goemon. Will it Return to Consoles?

Suikoden IV (PS2) Review

Posted on February 10, 2019April 26, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

The Suikoden Series hasn’t made the transition to modern consoles; Suikoden I+II are legendary, mostly because they are hard finds unless you go on e-bay. There are also many Suikoden spin offs on different systems. Konami definitely had, at least until the 3rd installment, a decent RPG franchise. Suikoden 3 made its debut on the…

Suikoden 3 (PS2) Review

Posted on February 10, 2019April 26, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

Speechless…That’s is how Suikoden 3 left me. I am one of the few who had played and finished the original Suikoden some 7-8 years ago. That game was good, it was one of the very first RPGs for the PS1 and it featured the at the time unprecedented ability to recruit 108 characters, to fight…

Suikoden (PS1) Review

Posted on February 10, 2019April 26, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

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…
