An RPG For Me Please

This generation of consoles have offered us a myriad of new experiences via gameplay and improved graphical presentations. The PS3 has a great amount of titles to offer, but is currently missing something that PS2 and PS One offered in abundance. What am I talking about? RPGs. With big name titles such as Final Fantasy XIII and White Knight Story coming down the line, there is currently a void left to be filled. Sony could improve the current content offered on the Playstation Store through introducing more of the classic RPGs.

RPGs would substantially improve the lack of content. Something that everyone wants. Which RPGs would you like to see on the PS Store?

FF7, no doubt, no question, no arguing.

xenogears was fun too.

I want some bloody hacky and slash... With thousands of weapons and armor upgrades. Come on Wizards of the Coast get someone to give a true Champions of Norrath.

Palodios5871d ago

I personally thought Champions of Norrath was pretty decent. There was a pretty large variety of weaponry, wasn't there?

So MANY rpgs that need to pop up again. I feel like we see certain games, mostly snes era, redone all the time, but ps1 era needs some love. PS1 was definitely my personal favorite console for rpgs. If you're going to remake games for handhelds, do it for consoles too, because a lot of us don't have a practical use for a handheld.

Chrono Cross, Suikodens, Star Ocean, Saga Frontier, Legend of Mana, Lunar, Ogre Battle Series, Xenogears, Vanguard Bandits... my list goes on and on, and yet all we've seen so far is Wild Arms, which is good, but I have the original AND the remake, so it makes little difference to me.

I think they will come around but it has not been their weakness, like it has been for MS and it's Japanese culture battle. Yeah some are waiting for FF13 but then what?

The 360 has gotten some new franchises under it's belt. I'm close to beating Lost Odyssey and infinite discovery might be next, then Last remenant and Fable...360 has got me covered so I'm patient with the PS3 and the lack of W/Jrpgs.

The way it was handled was so dumb. One shots in melee...your teammates are to ostupid to get away from its attack. So you most often end up alone in a certain fight.

Two words, one accessory....Safety Bit

MeteorPanda9d ago

Needing an accessory to keep a.i from dying and only one of them isnt great.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5235d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212135d ago (Edited 35d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5235d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5235d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani35d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum36d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman36d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim36d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum36d ago (Edited 36d ago )

I disagree Batman
