My RPGQuest begins
matmanx1 | 11:36 AM on 12.08.2007 6 comments


It all started this past October the 15th. That was the day I bought my PS3 60gb. The idea had been in the back of my mind even longer than that, of course, but October the 15th was the day the idea became a possibility. See with a fully backwards compatible PS3 I realized that all of those quality PS1 and PS2 RPG's I'd missed (I was a Sega and then Nintendo fan-boy for far too long!) could give me hours of gaming bliss at relatively small expense.

And so I started soliciting advice on the worthy titles and collecting them the very next day. So far I've managed to round up Xenosaga 1, Persona 3, Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2, Atelier Iris 2, Growlanser Generations, Shadow Hearts 1, Okami, Dark Cloud 2 and Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter. Although I still have many titles to go, I'm already very excited about this, my personal RPGQuest.

Currently I'm closing in on 30 hours played on Xenosaga 1 and (I think) nearing the end of the game. I've enjoyed my time with Xenosaga and will post a more thorough missive on my time with it once I actually finish. For now, I'm just going to buckle down and finish it and then tackle the more difficult job of deciding which game to play next!

Good luck, I hope you have found a way to add ten hours to the day and have nothing but free time. I know I miss having the time to play RPGs...

Dragon Quest 8 actually is on my list of games to get. The games I listed are just the ones I have already gotten. Rest assured I plan to spend some quality time with DQ8 in the coming year.

Wild ARMs 5 is also very worth your time.

Funny you should mention that. I just downloaded the original off of the PSN to play on my PSP. It reminds me of the Golden Sun games (that's a good thing) and has really surprisingly good music. By far the best $6 RPG I've bought lately.
