Dragon Quest VIII is good, too.

Tales of the Abyss! That's what I forgot! Thanks for the reminder! And I've already played DQVIII and loved it! Didn't beat it...got annoyed after my data was deleted...at the LAST BOSS!

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. Keep them coming if you have more!

Kingdom Hearts I and II.

I can't believe no has suggested them yet.

I thinks there's already a thread about this on the PS zone; but this seems to be more open; so i'll quote my PS suggestion and add the GC and Xbox ones =D

Since some of you have asked for recommendations on RPGs... The two current threads have been merged. (Can't find the others >_> *cough*)

Please post here for any questions or any RPG recommendations.

Guess I'll make good use of this thread. =]

I'm going to buy another PSP soon (actually maybe tomorrow) since my old one was stolen and I was wondering if anyone can recommend me a good RPG game for the PSP.

I already have Legend of Heroes III: Song of the Ocean, Ys VI: The Ark of Naphistim (although I have still yet to play it since I just bought it today), and I've played Crisis Core (but it was stolen along with the PSP).

So, any suggestions?

You should try the origianl Final Fantasy games and Final Fantasy War of the lions. I like them and they were pretty good also.

A highly-underrated game called "The Legend of Dragoon" is the one game I'm going to recommend that you all play, immediately!

It follows the story of a young man named Dart, who sets out on a quest to get revenge on a creature known as The Black Monster, who destroyed his original village and killed his family and friends. On his journey, he meets several great friends and ends up caught between international war, exploiting the princess of one country as a fake and just generally saves the world from annihilation.

The whole story surrounds an ancient battle known as the Dragon Campaign, where humans would fight with the power of the Dragoon (the ability to draw upon the power of/control dragons) against a race known as the Winglies, who battled with magic and the power of Virage, another mystical creature. While this is set in the past, you'll notice that it's essentially repeating itself, given that each of your characters acquires the power of each of the Dragoons in the Dragon Campaign.

I find the battle system to be quite interesting - your attacks are called Additions and you basically have to press the right buttons at the right time, everytime, to complete the Addition. Each new Addition is more powerful but more complicated than the last. When you can start turning into a Dragoon, their attacks include specific magic attacks, such as Final Burst for Dart, Star Children for Shana or Astral Drain for Rose.

As for the graphics, they're not far away from Final Fantasy VII but there's still a noticable improvement in The Legend of Dragoon. Also, the characters have voices and it was one of the first RPGs back in the day to use voices, or so I'm told. The voices only apply to grunts (and the shouting out of the name) of Additions, the transformation into Dragoons, the names ot attacks in battle, and during CGI cutscenes. Basically, everywhere other than when you're running around in towns.

This video is the introduction to the game. The song is called "If You Still Believe in Love" and it goes on for about another five minutes.

Here's a boss fight somewhere on Disc 3 of the game, I believe. It might be Disc 4, actually. It demonstrated the use of Additions, items and it includes Dragoons at the end. The background of the fight changes because, when all the characters have maximum spirit points (the currency you use to transform and is acquired through additions) then you go to the dimension of that element - in Meru's case, water and ice.

I've just convinced myself to start a new game.

Id say, elder scrolls Morrowind or Oblivion, I perfer Morrowind. So much stuff to do, the graphics are stunning, and a great story!

Star Wars Knights of the Republic 1 and 2. They are pretty good.

Also Wild Arms 3, great story, FFish, but ive never beat it
