  • Kingdon Hearts 2 and i need a rec.

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

I stopped playing it for a while, but now and at it again and almost have it beat. I dont why i stopped playing, because this game kicks some major ass and keeps getting better. I think out of the whole thing, the voice acting is what is the absolute best. Whether it is the echoing shouts your teammates/foes say during a battle or the many entertaining cutscenes, it is all excellent.

I'm going to need another RPG after this one, has anything good come out recently?

What system? PS2?

Dragon Quest VIII is pretty good, if you can stand the simpler combat, and has a non-trivial plot and good voice acting (and characterization, even) too.

I haven't played Grandia III, word on the Penny Arcade is that the combat is splendid but the plot is horrendous.

Magna Carta is supposed to be amazing...except that the voice acting got butchered by the actors' strike and made it nearly unplayable. But, you might be able to play it in Japanese (Korean?) with subtitles, or something...

There's a new Shadow Hearts game out, I think, but don't know much about it.

And if you can *actually* read Japanese, Final Fantasy XII is out... ;)
