OMG LUNAR. BESTEST JRPG EVER. >w< Your hubby has EXCELLENT taste.

PS1 games are completely compatible with PS2, and the newest PS3 consoles.

You'll need a PS1 memory card to save your progress, though.

LUNAR rocks. :) Do you have 1 & 2 (Silver Star Story and Eternal Blue)? You will LOVE it if you did super awesome anime RPG with mucho cut scenes of animation.

He has the first one. He said that Eternal Blue kinda sucked. Not sure...this will be my first RPG. I usually can't stand them but I'm really looking forward to playing this one. I've only heard great things about this game.

The Lunar series is cute , a lot of fmv though. I just recently sold the mint 2nd series that came with the necklace ( wow I know lol )


and like someone else answered PSX2 is backwards compatible so it can play PSX 1 games. There are a ton of great PSX1 RPGS out there !

Depending on what you like... Though you did mention -not- being a fan of RPGs... There's also Star ocean. I know alot of people absolutely hate it, ut I am rather fond of the series. :) You may dig Persona as well -- cause it's more guided and less full on stratgey. Which reminds me... I have not played my games in ages. :: le sigh ::

Kingdom Hearts. The whole entire reason I splurged on a PS2 was for the Kingdom Hearts games. lol

And the .hack// series, too. Love that! Even though I have yet to make it past the first disk (there are four games). ^^;

Haven't heard of the Silver Star Story but totally sounds like something I'd love to play.
