Strange OT Question about Video Games

[Itsaiya]

I can whole heartedly suggest the early Suikoden series - Suikoden I and Suikoden II for the PS1 BUt they're kinda rare to find... I'm lucky I found mine when I did. Those games going for $100+ on ebay o_O;

Otherwise, Suikoden V on the PS2 was pretty awesome, too - it sorta headed back towards it's I & II roots, in the sense of story telling, but with pretty 3D graphics

All three of the aformentioned SUikdoens kinda start off slow, doing the daily tasks to set the character's life style, but once the shit hits the fan for the main character... the shit really hits the fan. Lots of story twists and turns and character building.

Tales of the Abyss on the PS2 was awesome too... the battle system was a bit like a fighter, but not 100% the same (have to accommodate 3 dimensional running space and menu buttons for healing items) - kinda like the before mentioned Star Ocean on the PS2

Any PS1 Game can be plaied on the PS2 so long as you have a PS1 Memory Card. Only the first batch of PS3s are backwards compatable.. they removed that function from the newer ones..

It's always great to know other people who dig Star Ocean. I'm currently seriously loving the 3rd one (The Last Hope) for XBox 360.

I haven't tried the last 1 or 2 - just the old one on the PS1 (where it boasted being the first with recorded voices or something... but it got soooooo annoying in the battles, with no way to make them shush o__o) and uuuuh.... TIll the End of Time? I keep forgetting it's subtitle xD;;; The one on the PS2... I only had it for a short time, since it was a borrow from a friend. Luckily, he let me borrow the memory card so I could play all the characters in the mini fighting game portion that can be unlocked xD
