Shadow Hearts: Covenant

$58.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
as another dry year for rpgs closed, especially with the lack of good material for square enix, one game stands out as a shining beacon: shadow hearts ii: covenant.
from www.amazon.com
just finished this game for the 2nd time, and this time i finished all the sidequests and got to say probably one of the best rpgs out there...ff x is still my favorite but this comes a really close
from www.amazon.com
during that time we saw some some great fpss (halo 2, half life 2), a new entry in the grand theft auto saga, a new metal gear solid and two really good rpgs, nocturne and shadow hearts: covenant.
from www.amazon.com
shadowhearts 2 is easily one of the better playstation 2 rpgs.
from www.amazon.com
all in all, i'd have to recommend this game to anyone who likes rpgs, though i believe a complete appreciation of the game requires you to play shadow hearts beforehand.

it's about time that square added voices to the final fantasy games, being that other companies were doing it in their playstation 1 rpgs.

i'd try and explain it, but it isn't important, and it is explained in the game.with this latest installment in the ff series square has continued it's streak of keeping in head of the other rpgs,

Kingdom Hearts

$23.00 Est. at Amazon

from T.P. from Asheville, NC, www.circuitcity.com
kingdom hearts was one of the best rpgs i have ever played,it could have been longer but it was still challenging and fun.
from ninjarob17, www.shopping.com
the bottom line: if you're a fan of action/rpgs, get this game.
from www.amazon.com
after experiencing the depth the game has, even if it isn't as deep as traditional rpgs, it certainly isn't a gimmick.
from www.amazon.com
overall, this game has been one of the most anticipated rpgs lately and there's no doubt about why it's so popular.
from www.amazon.com
it deserves its status as one of the best selling rpgs of the past few years, and at the current price ($20 as a greatest hit title) every ps2 owner should buy it.now, don't get me wrong--there's a

from ladylaguna, www.shopping.com
the bottom line: i highly recommend this game to anyone who loves rpgs with deep story lines and lovable characters.
from sei_fu_doja, www.shopping.com
great story cons: the character and weapon advancing system the bottom line: this game pushes the limits in all categories for rpgs.
from chalgyr, www.shopping.com
the bottom line: a great game, a deep experience and one of the best rpgs i ever had the pleasure of playing.
from sawmill_rubin, www.shopping.com
the bottom line: not quite as good as ff7 or ff9, but it's still one of the most ingrossing rpgs out there.
from www.amazon.com
if you dont like rpgs you may not like it but this doesn't mean that your favorite button-mashing, blood-spewing, rocket-launching, testosterone-producing, action game compares to the quality of work

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3

$35.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
this is a spectacular game, one of the best rpgs i have ever come across in my 15 odd years as a gamer.
from www.amazon.com
any rpg'er with be happy to hear it has newgame+ one i my favortie aspects of rpgs.
from www.amazon.com
unlike most rpgs where time is just kind of generally moving forwards, here it is divided into days on a calendar, and each day has it's own morning, daytime, evening and night-time sections.
from www.amazon.com
that's 150+ hours of gameplay from this little collection, of one of the most interesting and unique rpgs to come out ever for the ps2.

Star Trek: Encounters

i was so touched.it's true when squaresoft had said, "the ultimate game." they were not bragging.this game has set a standard for me as what rpgs should be.
from www.amazon.com
if you are a fan of rpgs or ff, then you should at least play this game if you don't buy.
from www.amazon.com
final fantasy viii is an wonderfully scripted game (after all aren't rpgs story first, graphics second?) with beautiful cut scenes, and i think well done fight scenes.
from www.amazon.com
when final fantasy vii debuted in 1997 it was hailed as the greatest of great rpgs.
from www.amazon.com
i've done all this, and there is still some quest involving things you can search for on the map screen that i am intrigued by and have not successfully completed.most rpgs engross me, lend me

if you're into disney nostalgia, like action rpgs, or just wanna kick some butt roaming across different scenes from your favorite disney movie memories, then this is the title for you!
from www.amazon.com
and it is a decent action rpg, which is good for rpg fans, so i recommend this game to someone who has at least some knowledge of the final fantasy series and well loves rpgs, so i guess that's it.
from www.amazon.com
if you like sword-weilding rpgs without the blood and gore, then this game is for you, which is why i rate it 5 strikes out of 5.

Katamari Damacy

perhaps one of the most eccentric video games i've ever played, this game deviates from the current trends of rpgs, fighter and sports games available in today's market.
from www.amazon.com
i am usually big on rpgs but this game is one i will keep in my collection.

there are hunderds of rpgs, fpss, simulators, and action/adventure games out there, but there is only one karamari damacy.

i really enjoy the gameplay in this game and the way they never force gameplay like so many other online rpgs.
from WC-Fan from CA, www.circuitcity.com
this mmorpg is one of the best rpgs ever made.
from www.newegg.com
but with 9 million subscribers you think they could lower the fee like 5 buck or somthing, i mean cereal, com'on other thoughts: if fantasy based rpgs are your thing...well, blizzard got
from Nate from Nashville, TN, www.circuitcity.com
however, it lacks true depth and reminds me of a cartoon, and cheapens most other rpgs because an rpg isnt supposed to be like a cartoon its supposed to be a new world full of adventure, imersion,
from www.circuitcity.com
sorry to let down all those wow fans, but this is too much like the other mmorpgs, even though its the most anticipated, its not quite what i thought it would be, its takes on the same system as any

"legend of zelda" for the nes defined adventure-style gaming, "final fantasy vii" for the psx brought rpgs to the mainstream, and "super mario 64" for the n64 is what all 3d platformers are compared
from www.amazon.com
many console rpgs have dramatic or melodramatic storylines, but a few lines of text on a screen are silly compared to a real book for that sort of thing.
