Greatest console RPG of all time

[Ni cD]

Just another OT thread to go along with the rest.

My favorites are Chrono Trigger and Lunar: Silver Star Story.

I always liked Mega Man, Zelda, And Mario Bros if they count

All the old Zelda games were fun...not sure if the original Mega Man and Super Mario Bros. counts though.

[fenris69]

good choice man, lunar is one of my all time favs. but Shining Force or Dark Wizard(sega cd title...was wicked, if anyone has this i want it) are right up there with it.

Consoles are evil.

There is no console with games that match a computer, nor is there a console that performs as good.

But I like Zelda and the first Super Mario Bros.

ChronoTrigger was the BEST RPG ever, hands down. Baldurs Gate-style games are good too (Icewind Dale, Torment, etc), but they are for PC :-)

I'm also a big fan of all the FF games. Playstation has some good ones too, like StarOcean: The Second Story, and Legend of the Dragoon.

My choice is Parasite Eve for the original playstation.

O damn, I can't count the number of hours I spent playing that. More than 50 definatly. I really liked how the game played so I just got hooked...

[FeelTheRT]

ah! Zelda was too confusing!

I like Gauntlet Legeon

The PS2 one has much better graphics, it's beast.

[Flamebo]

The Legend of Zelda.

Gauntlet Legends and Dark Legacy (or whatever the new arcades are named) are really great for arcades, since you can resume your progress...

I really dig the Resident Evil genre too.

My fav: Secret of Mana

SoM was pretty sweet, but I was really disappointed with LoM. Its still collecting dust...eck...

[Thordic]

Gauntlet Legends isn't an RPG, in any way I consider it. Yes, you "level up" your character, but there is no attempt at a plotline, and all you do is hack away at badguys constantly. RPGs involve a lot more than that.

The same goes for a lot of other games people consider RPGs.

[gmag]

Final Fantasy 7 for playstation was the greatest game I have ever played.

[Xzion]

Loved the Zelda games, though in my opinion, theyve been going downhill since A Link to the Past, Love the Final Fantasy games, and Parasite Eve... ooh! and Phantasy Star, especially Phantasy Star Online.... ooh, and Breath of Fire! WOOO HOOO!

[hobbes]

My favorit eone was an rpg for the genesis called Beyond Oasis. It was like an arabian/pirate type of thing. Definetely great.

Anyone here played Final Fantasy TACTICS?

HANDS DOWN the best Consol RPG of all time. Very challanging, very origeonal.

As for PC... You can get basically any Consol Game for PC, so PC's have you consol gamers beat there too.

lol ever heard of "Bleem", "SNES9x", "Nesticle", "LameBoy" or any other of these Emulators? They take quite a powerful machine for, say Bleem (PSX) and UltraHLE (N64) and there's no analog controler available, but with a high-bandwidth connection, everything is available.

[PyRo]

Mario1 and dragon warrior for nintendo

[cphilip]

Back in my days we played RPG's a lot. Guess if you are wearing a Monks shroud and she is wearing a Little Bo Peeps outfit it would count as an RPG right?


Where's a Mod when you need one!

FF Tactics was ok, but I've never really been a fan of the whole Final Fantasy series (though I must say, the movie rocked).

BTW, I use ZNES for all my SNES emulation needs.
