The Shrine

<div style='font: 11pt "comic sans MS"; text-align: left; '>I have only 4 I could play without getting bored.


#4 Wild ARMs - my first classic RPG. I saw why it's such a popular genre.

#3 Vandal Hearts(simple yet...I don't know, I liked it)

#3 FF9 - cliched? Hell yes but it was fun to play. Likeable char's.

#1 FFT - gameplay was challenging, graphics were cool for its time, memorable levels.

There's been a lot of RPGs I've missed out on.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Yep, I agree with you there. I enjoyed all of those games. :)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Verdana, Tahoma; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Hmmm... probably FF4, FF6, CT, FFT, and Link to the Past. With the exception of Tactics (due to the fact I played it at a time when free time was scarce, and has been ever since), I've played them all many times.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Definetly agree with you on all games EXCEPT Vandal Hearts, but maybe I should play that game sometime. For me, my favorite RPG currently is Skies of Arcadia,</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Link to the past, if you liked that game, Try the GBC Zelda's they remind me very much of that one. Also, Try Illusions of Gaia and Terranigma, just my simple recomendations (Personally, I like Terranigma the best out of all the games mentioned)</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>My favorite RPG isn't necessarily something I play a lot of times. Things I can play a lot of times whether getting bored are:

1. Grandia 2 - Yeah, there are problems with this game like the main plot sucks and the main characters suck, but the battle system is great, and I like the supporting cast (in fact they're the only ones I like, aside from Mareg). I play this quite frequently though I only completed the game once. Trying to beat the Eye of Valmar allowing only two Heals is *tough*.

2. Chrono Trigger - Haven't played this in a while, since I only have it on the emulator, but it's still a balst.

3. Terranigma - It's one of those rare games that actually have a good plot. Hard to find those these days. The gameplay is pretty nice too, and the music is just incredible.

4. FFT - This is just such a nice game...</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Add in the original Zelda, and your list will be exactly the same as mine.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Verdana, Tahoma; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I never played that. I watched it a few times, but I never played it myself.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Verdana, Tahoma; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I've wanted to play those games, but I don't see myself ever buying a handheld. I want to play my games on a tv.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>Final Fantasy 4/2... Must've been through it 15 times by now, and I still enjoy it.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>FFT and System Shock 2. Just reacquired a copy of SS2, and I'm playing that for the fifth or sixth time.</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Pretty much Link to the Past and Final Fantasy III. I love both of those games sooooo much. hehe</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Super Gameboy. :)</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>That might be possible when the GameCube comes out.....err I think.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Let alone play it for more than an hour.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Baskerville; text-align: left; '>5. Shining Force 2
4. Zelda: The Ocarina of Time
3. Landstalker
2. Panzer Dragoon Saga
1. Final Fantasy VII

<i>Each of these have been played all the way through a minimum of 5 times...some have been played so many times it's frightening...but I don't feel like I wasted a minute...</i></div>

<div style='font: bold 12pt "Comic Sans MS"; text-align: left; '>Im sorry, but I can pick up Castlevania: SotN at any given time and play it through to completion and NOT be bored. FFT is up there too, along with FF2 and Star Ocean 2</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Nice sig!!!! :) Shinning Force 2. Bah I get to the mountains on the new island and I quit. :P</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>People prolly should not have included ARPG's in their lists, as there's too many of those that are replayable (Castlevania, any of the Zelda games, and even obscure stuff like Neutopia and Soul Blazer).</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Oh, and umm.. I guess my answer (for turnbased ones) is Chrono Trigger (although it does employ a more action style fighting system).</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Basically all of the GB and GBC games are enhanced (full pallette and such) for Super Gameboy, even nowadays. The only forced portables now are the GBA ones (although that'll change with GameCube).</div>

<div style='font: bold 12pt "Comic Sans MS"; text-align: left; '>We're not into a specific type of RPG, cause then FFt shouldnt be included cause its a Strategy RPG. RGPin' is RPGin' :)</div>

<div style='font: 14pt Tahoma; text-align: left; '>Final Fantasy 7. Beat it countless times, even found and maxed out absolutely EVERY materia.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Helvetica; text-align: left; '>Chrono Trigger, C:SotN, Xenogears... those are my top 3 at least.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>C:SoTN
FFT
FFIX
Alundra
Arc The Lad 2

I finished all of them twice, which is one more than all other RPGs that I've played :)</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Why? It's fucking great! It's like Half-Life with a much better story and more RPG elements thrown in.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Oh yeah. C:SotN, too. Of course, that's just a given.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>I loved the story on XG, but I couldn't bring myself to play it over again. (I've fought the final boss a few times, but never started over.)</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Gee, I wonder who this is. Anyway, I really want those GBA games on a console.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Verdana, Tahoma; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Am I the only one who doesn't consider SotN an action RPG? I consider it a side-scroller which borrowed some RPG stuff, but I don't consider it any kind of an RPG.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Suikoden!!</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>Forgot about Suikoden and Suikoden 2. 'Gotta recruit 'em all!'</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Well you're not getting them goddamnit. If you want them get your ass a GBA! Our last 2D system will not fail because "I want it on PSX2!"</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>There's really no reason why you need *that* much battles in a game like that.

The Freeze 4 stuff at the end is pretty cheesy too.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>It's pretty much the skeletal version of the Zelda series. It's fun, though probably most of the enjoyment I get from it now is nostalgia.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Well, if so, then definitely include those ones I listed. But still, SRPG is closer to traditional style (by far) than ARPG's.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>I'll agree on Alundra, twas a brilliant ARPG.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>I almost forgot the Ys games! They're ARPG and all, but whatever ;-)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>It scares the PISS out of me!</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't believe in action RPG's anymore, they're all Adventure Games to me, except maybe Legend of Mana.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>It was, I saw it yesterday at EB for $19. :)</div>

<div style='font: bold 12pt "Comic Sans MS"; text-align: left; '>of course, add Suikoden TWO to mine, still havent beaten ONE. Im at the beginning, went to a town and kept gambling with this cup game. Im up to like 200K and Im 2 hours into the game :)</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>It's just too long to start over again. I've a saved game in all the parts of interest (to me), though.</div>

<div style='font: 14pt "Times New Roman"; text-align: left; '>I played it through a second time, but there was a year in between so it still felt kind of fresh.</div>

<div style='font: bold 12pt "Comic Sans MS"; text-align: left; '>Bah, there isnt a PC game period I can play as long as any of the games I mentioned as my favorites...</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>LOL! Heh, the gambling was lots of fun. Later on there's some dice rolling game... I remember I used to have some near surefire way to rip the hell out of the computer, but I can't recall it... damn.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Nice pitch, but I doubt he went out and got a GBA, so ultimately it failed. :)</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>I just sold my copy recently. I liked it, but not enough for a second play.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "Arial bold"; text-align: left; '>Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 3, and Panzer Saga are the best overall. Xenogears should have been in there (too bad) and Chrono Cross is shaping up like a kick-ass one</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "Arial bold"; text-align: left; '>I agree (for once). The story was utterly incredible, but man, was that ever a chore to play about 35 hours in</div>
