Secret of Mana is a top 10. Def not number 1 though. Story wasnt that good.

there were so many typos in that article..

anyways, i maintain that FFIII is the best rpg ever. i should give chrono trigger another chance though.

imo Xenogears should be in the top 5 (just my opinion). Amazing story coupled with a fun interactive combat system made that game a classic in my eyes.

IDemonstalkerXI - 389 days 23 hours ago

bubbles for mentioning 7th saga that game never gets the attention it deserved.

Zeromage, I saw your responsible for that list...It needs work IMO.

where's...

Shadow Run (SNES/Genesis)

Betrayal at Krondor PC

Super Mario RPG

Legend of Dragoon

FF8

Star Ocean 3 till the end of time (yes that 1)

The Wheel of Time PC

FF7 at #12 /sigh only reason it could be at 12 is because someone was mad it gets so much love.

Agree with Baldurs Gate II being an improvement on I.
In the screenshot they're playing the BGI story (they're standing just outside Candlekeep) in the BGII engine (probably though a mod like TuTu or BGTrilogy)

Not the greatest article imho - no fallout and no planescape in a top-rpg's list just doesnt seem right (especially when neverwinter nights is on there).

they must of meant the real ff2, the one that was not originally released in North America. But kudos for rating FFVII correctly, even though I think Chrono Cross should be higher on the list (being a sequel to the best game of all time is hard).

Nineball2112 - 389 days 7 hours ago

That was a good list. I really enjoyed Neverwinter Nights, Baldur's Gate, and Diablo.

And I had totally forgotten about Illusion of Gaia! It's been so long since I've even thought about that game!

Good list!

Still needs time to be ranked with the best of the old RPGs.

kevnb - 389 days 15 hours ago

the gameplay was too easy and a bit mundane after awhile, still I played through all 80 or so hours and enjoyed it because of the story alone.

Gun_Senshi - 390 days 3 hours ago

To be specific in North America it was released a 2 and 3, the game lost some content to censorship and poor translation when localized. Example removed Removal of Judeo-Christian religious imagery.

But guess what? The world is not US its know as FF IV and FF VI. Also in US its known as FF IV and VI.

Edit: Meh Swede answered while I was typing..oh well

Worldwide its FF IV and FF VI. END.

@ Below. How did I get crushed? I said why they may had posted it like that but they are still wrong. In Europe and in Japan its know as IV and VI also the PSX Remakes are marked as IV and VI and world wide its IV and VI

Agreed. Mass Effect def deserves a spot

pumpkinpunker - 389 days 20 hours ago

But...

Mass Effect > KOTOR

The original Dragon Warrior for the NES should have made the list, too.

Why people keep calling FFVI, 3?

Anyway, they included Illusion of Gaia and that surprise me but Terranigma was better... Well I don't know, both were too awesome! Decent list but, there are better Jrpg's like Dragon Warrior, Shining Force III, Suikoden II, Bahamut Lagoon, . And what about Dragon Force?

FFVII is not even that good, that game just had a lot of luck like Zelda OOT that made the transition from 2.5D to 3-D when everybody was tired of the low res sprites from the Snes and FFI used ideas from the first Zelda(nes) and for that I don't consider it one of the best ever. Chrono Cross is too confusing and boring... But the other are good choices.

Xenogears = the best of the best
Chrono Trigger = the best of the best
Illusion of Gaia and Terranigma = the best of the best
FFVI and FFIV = the best of the best
Secret of Mana = the best of the best
-Soul Blazer = not that good

The rest well, I don't play those kind of rpg
