Just post your favorite game of all time. Why you like it? Is it fun for everybody, or just you? If it's that good, is it easy to find and play now?
My favorite game will always be Paper Mario. There are better RPGs and Mario games out there, but I got a place in my heart for this one. They took a turn based RPG and put a lot of time attacks into it. Things like that make RPGs fun for me. It had this cartoony style that reminded me of Parappa the Rapper. My little brother has mild autism, so has some trouble reading. I kind of teach him to read with RPG games. This one was probably the most fun for him. It was a fun game. I think fun should be the most important thing when it comes to videogames.
What you pick doesn't matter. You can pick something from a console, an online game, or even an RPG Maker game. You just can't go outside and play it.
Yes, I was that bored.

Star Ocean: The Second Story and Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse. I just really became attached to both of them. Castlevania III when I was really young and Star Ocean 2 once two of my friends and I were all into it.
EDIT: Oh, yes and Sonic 3 & Knuckles has to come next very close behind.

I mean, I loved FF7, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island was awesome, I've spent countless hours on Diablo/2, and many other things that have made life special.
One thing for certain, my favourite game is not THE GAME. WHICH I JUST LOST, LOL.

I've been playing tons of games since I was six, actually... Master System was my first console and then I moved on to Mega Drive. About 25-30 games there. Next was Playstation and Playstation 2. About 100 games there. Dreamcast - about another 10. Nintendo Handhelds - about another 15. Gamecube, that's another 10. PC? 15.
25 + 100 + 10 + 15 + 10 + 15 = 175 Games, probably a lot more -these are only estimates and I went for the lowest value I know I definitely have. So, yes, I am an avid gamer. [STRIKE]And I have a life too![/STRIKE]
I personally can't find FF7 overrated as I love it so much, but I appreciate it could be very annoying if you don't like it :dry:
RPGs are my favourite genre too, and I've yet to see something top FF7, especially as I played it when it first came out (1997, I was only seven :p)
EDIT: @Cerebus: There's Ultima WEAPON too, but I don't count him as he's too easy to be counted as one of the superbosses. Beating him is hardly an achievement ;)
Post by: coreystranick on August 19, 2006, 01:12:40 PM
You fight Diamond out side Midgar
You fight Ultima to get the final weapon for cloud
You fight Emerald Underwater
You fight Ruby in that desert.
And Diamond was easier then Ultima for me

Why do so many like Chrono Trigger? I played it several times, but I can't like it. I really tried to get into it, but I just can't like it. I think DBZ ruind Chrono and Dragon Quest for me. I just can't seem to get into them. :|
BTW, there is no such thing as a Sapphire Weapon. That was Emerald Weapon+Bad Graphics at Junon. I'm replaying FF7 right now.

Yay someone feels the same way I do!
Try using the Eternal Sphere. Look up online how to craft it. Then once you beat the final boss, from the last save point of the game you can run back to the battle arena, go back to Expel, get on a Synard in Expel and fly to the insanely challenging cave of trials! I never made it past the 11th or 12th floor...
EDIT: Oh, yes and bunny shoes help. Now that I think of it you can go to the cave of trials before beating the final boss, where you can find bunny shoes. You can also win bunny shoes at the bunny races.

Blasphemy! For one, DBZ isn't even in CT. Sure the art style is the same, but that never bothered me. In fact, I liked the art. But eh, everyone has their own opinion. Maybe you didn't like it because the game itself was too simplistic when it came to super duper advanced systems or something. Or maybe the plot was just too complicated for you to grasp. I dunno, but my opinion still and most likely always stand the same.
And CT > FF7. 'nuff said.

The farthest I've ever gotten to (just to play and not to rip sprites) was to the "trial" in Chrono Trigger. I tried, but it just wasn't fun for me. I wouldn't say the storyline was too complex for me. I completely understood games like FF7 and Vagrant Story. I just never played far enough to actually get into the story. If I'm not on the edge of my seat the entire game and I have to trudge to get to the good part, I just put the game down. The art style bothered me a lot. I don't like it...
I have a weird taste in games. Unless it's something like Resident Evil or Grand Theft Auto or something, My favorite games either have extremely deep and confusing storylines or they're like fairie tales. I don't mind watching anime, but I don't like my games to be like animes.
Close behind Paper Mario: Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, Vagrant Story, FF9, and FFTactics are right behind them.

Diamond and Ultima are nowhere near powerful enough to be superbosses, and one of them you HAVE to defeat, so therefore I don't bother stating that I've defeated them.
Otherwise, I might as well state that I in fact have beaten the almighty Guard Scorpion too. ;)
Suikoden II is a rare game, but an incredibly good one. I highly recommend it to anyone, especially if they play the first one before as they lead on to each other plotwise.
Legend of Dragoon was quite cool, albeit cliche. I hated the way you had to use the Divine Dragoon spirit for the last boss rather than the Red-Eye one though... it was so much weaker... :(
Well, I like all of the FFs and FF8 was also very good. In my opinion, the main problem was restricting your access during Disc 4 to only dungeons. Bah.

Yeah huh.
Emerald weapon looks nothing like that beast, it wasn't even the same color, they killed Sapphire there..
I remember seeing proof somewhere that it's name was saphire.. I think it was on ebay, some guy was selling an official action figure of it and it was made by Square.
If you think that thing looks anybit close to Emerald weapon in appearance, you need your eyes checked.
Sapphire
Here is what wikipedia has to say on that matter.

Thats what I did. On Morrowind too. I'm not going to play through a few truding hours of a game because "It gets good later on!". A game doesn't have to go anywhere early on, but it has to bring you in. If it doesn't reel you in, you're well within your freedoms to not play it.

I find this quite hard to disagree.

On 106 & Park today, Eva Pickford said this was her favorite game. Even the ladies in the audience screamed when she mentioned that one game.

That was one of my favorite games as a kid. Along with DKC 1, 2 and 3. Those games rocked hard.

I would say Donkey Kong Land 1/2 were pretty much my favorite games for the GB when I was a young whippersnapper. I especially like the soundtrack from DKL 2. DKL 3 wasn't as good as the other two, in my opinion. Yoshi's Island was fun when I got the chance to play it with my neighbour. Except, he got kinda mad at me for killing his black Yoshi...... >D

He calls it a game, I call it getting a quick 200 bucks.
That wasn't part of the gaygreement.

I'll agree 3 wasn't as good, but I never owned 1 so I can't say how good it was. A bit hard IIRC, but then against I was like 7-8 back then.

OMG, that song IS awesome. I have the entire soundtrack as well. :D
I pretty much hated any of the levels with brambles though. :p
And btw, though not my favorite, I'd say I really enjoyed Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 (for the dreamcast, not GC) as my non rpgs.

Dude, the song from Tree Top Town. Another awesome one. I have the soundtrack too, PLUS an electronika/rock version on 21 of the songs. Like hard rock version of Gank Plank Galleon. If you want it I'll give it to yeh.

The bramble theme is probably my favorite video game track ever. Unfortunately, I could never find the original soundtrack in MP3 format, so all I have are a bunch of MIDI remakes on my computer. Version 6 of that track is really.... peaceful. I believe it's on VGMusic, although it may be from some other website I found the MIDI files on, I'm not really sure.
Another good track, while we're still on the subject, would be the game menu on ALTTP for GBA, when you choose between ALTTP and 4 Swords. I ripped that and put about 25 min. worth of it on my computer. I'll probably burn it to a CD and play while I'm trying to fall asleep. :p Just to be cool.

Chrono Trigger: First RPG I played that Revolves around Time Travel and has over 10 Endings to it, New Game+ makes it even more fun if you want to play through the story again while hyperpowered.
Skies of Arcadia: Ship battles and good plot.
Final Fantasy 6: You Overthrew the one who destroyed the world and as he ruled it's ruined state, not kill him beforehand.
Star Ocean 2: Finally a Villain without Silver Hair Plus 80+ endings Private Actions and a great story give massive replay value.
Live A Live: So many characters and cliches rolled into one.
Cave story: Mix Metroid's weapon system with Castlevania's RPG Element and you get a awesome shootem' up.
Final Fantasy 7: Good game with a great story but the fans really killed this for me
Final Fantasy 3j: Original game with Job System, Plus you get to fly an airship that also acts as an Inn and Item/Magic/Weapon Shops as well as storage with the Fat Chocobo
Romancing Saga: Has a more original Battle System: Stats grow based on what happens in battle, plus a decent story and you can do any event in any order unless you have to clear and earlier event to reach it. But if you fight too much you miss events. If you do certain actions you can go to The Trials of Elore (Best Weapons in the game are found there) or the netherworld (Where you can meet and Fight Death!)
Romancing Saga 2: Similar to Romancing Saga, but this has an inheritance system, after every few events, a new generation starts and your stats are passed on to the next generation. However the events are not timed based on how many battles are fought, so you can clear them all if you want. Introduces the Factor of Life Points (Character can be revived with normal healing items/magic but if you run out of LP, it's game over!) Waza points: Weapon points, Jutsu Points: Magic.
Romancing Saga 3: Similar to the First 2 games but has a much better battle system and more memorable story as well as characters. (What other game can you play that has a lobster, a vampire, a fairy, a snowman, and an elephant that can be in your party?) There are also several minigames you can play also from running a corporation, to fighting wars
Saga Frontier: Like the first 3 Romancing Saga Games but you can play as 7 Different characters Each with their own story. After Clearing all stories you can access 2nd Division which allows you to fight the bosses again and discover some stuff about the game as well as play the music found in it
