I played Chrono Cross last summer and loved it. I'm considering getting an RPG for this summer too. I saw FF7, FF8, and FF9 at the mall for cheap. Which would you suggest? So far it looks like people like FF7.

Personally, I liked them all. I guess if you're going to get a single one....go with 9. IMHO, the graphics and story went a bit more smoothly than 7, but if money is no object...get all 3.

I've only played FF 7, 8, and seen 10, and the worst one I'd say is 10. It's got graphics, good combat system, and all this other stuff. But it's a little weird and bliztball is very strange indeed. Even stranger, the guy looks like a girl!!!

That's my opinion at least....

Resident evil are considered RPGs now.

What is this world comming to.

BBF: I know my RPGs.

Secret of Evermore and Earthbound were close too that, but, secret of mana just had something special about it. Maybe it was that cute pixie chick.

An addon, i forgot about Fallout... one wasn't too great, though two was awsome.

Oh, and Ten still beats out 7. (That's right, i said it.

)

BM > Vivi.
7 > 10.
And earthbound... god that game was awesome,, never had it, but played about half way thru on emulator.

Most Might and Magics
Wizardy 8
Morrowind
Dungeon Siege

Except for Dungeon Siege, these are pretty hardcore and slightly open ended. I like that route.

When you mentioned Morrowind I just remembered Daggerfall. That game looks like DOOM but you can actually spend a lifetime playing it. It's just that non-linear.

I'll always have a special place in my heart for Wasteland. Yes, the dusty old classic for the Commodore 64. Post-nuclear cyberpunk RPGs kick ass. (The Fallout series is an unofficial sequel to this game, BTW.)
