So I finally gave in to PS2...

Forget about FF Anthology, it\'s on the incompatible with PS2 list. Supposedly game V works fine (one of the least loved games of the entire series) and VI  has trouble when you go to save.  

Breath of Fire III would be a good substitute for Anthology. Am told BoF IV is even better. If you want to catch up on the classics, don\'t overlook FF Chronicles either.

You\'re an RPG fan and never owned a PSX? No wonder you freely talk smack about Sony [shakes head slowly] Just don\'t know no better, is all ;)

Ginko,

Here\'s a couple more that I\'m sure you won\'t regret.

Alunda and Vandal Hearts. Great oldies.

Wow, Ginko! I remember your crazy fanboyish ways quite well. It\'s nice to see you actually giving other consoles a try.
It\'s only funny until someone gets hurt...then it\'s hillarious.

No wonder you\'re smacking SONY left right and centre..you\'ve never owned a PSX.

But it\'s quite ridiculous to be an RPG fan and not playing all those fab RPG all these years.

Just WHAT DID U PLAY all those years???!!! :)

Anyway, I suggest you try everything everyone\'s recommending here...I\'ve  finished ALL of them except BOF4 and Wild Arms 2.

Those are all great games despite the now dated graphics.

Gameplay over graphics anyday for me... :)

Whew, I made an A in my Law of Contracts class :cool:  Now to work on Law of Agency :( Pretty easy so far...

Smacking Sony?!? LOL!!  I\'m not done yet...Xbox is still my console of choice, PS2 comes somewhat close though...

Anyway, 2 of my friend\'s had PS and I got a little bit of playtime in...I was never impressed enough to go out and buy one.  FFX impressed me so I bought PS2.  

FFIX is great so far, GTA III is so awesome,  Metal Gear Solid 2 was okay ( I was a bit underwhelmed by the whole thing), Chrono Cross is pure gold so far...

Ummm, only like 20 more games to go...they\'ll all have to take a back seat to Jet Set Radio Future:D

Avoid Legend of Mana like the plague though, I see it was on your list.

If you get tired of RPG games, you can play rpgish Parasite Eve or Eve II.  Both were cool.

I forgot to put this on my list!!  I played though some of the first one, very cool game.  A little slow paced though.

But I have been looking for both of them...somewhat hard to find.  I\'ll probably have to get them used...oh well.
