Suikoden II

Mass Effect 2 > Suikoden 2

Earthbound is better also.

[Gorgetrapper]

Mass Effect 2 is a piece of garbage.

Earthbound however, is pretty damn good.

[Psionide]

snes rpgs were the pinnacle of great rpgs. What other console can boast as many great rpgs

Chrono Trigger
Final fantasy 2 and 3
Earthbound
Secret of Mana
Secret of Evermore
Lufia 2 Rise of The Sinistrals
Super Mario RPG
Illusion of Gaia
7th saga
Breath of Fire 1 and 2.

I mean cmon look at that list theres no competition. I know im forgetting some I almost forgot super mario rpg and illusion of gaia.

I am really enjoying suikoden 2 so far. The combat/character system for me is fresh and unique so it's sitting pretty with both good combat and good story.

I really can't say I enjoy the TBS parts so far though. Perhaps if I get more options on things to do it will get better but I am not too hopeful.

edit------

yeah mass effect 2 is pretty boring. ME1 is great though.

How in the world do you like ME1 more than ME2? That's crazy.

Also, secret of mana/evermore are both overrated, did not enjoy them very much. 7th saga though...holy shit that's a game. A hard as fuck game.

I've been through this a bunch of times so here are the bullet points:

-ME1 had a main story and everything that happened revolved around it. ME2's was a bunch of unrelated short stories about nothing.

-It seemed as if the people who did write ME2 never even played the first. Character responses were inconsistent and unbelievable.

-Character leveling was destroyed. You max out the useful skills before you're even close to the end so it really lacks there.

-No looting new weapons and such

-mining....my god. They thought that would be better than going through loot? terrible.

-garrus isn't loyal to you....garrus and that crazy lady....jack?....are equal with loyalty.....are you kidding me?

-nobody seems to believe in the reapers, despite everything that happened...and the council will not assist your character even though you are the saviour of them and the galaxy....holy shit. really?

I could go on and on, but ME2 was worse in pretty much every way except the graphics. A few locations in ME2 had some really good atmosphere as well.

secret of mana is not overrated, it's just really dated. Multiplayer RPGs werent exactly common back then, imo it was rather groundbreaking if only for that

Farming the Sword of Kings in Earthbound made it fun [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Very well considering playing all of these games people are mentioning again. Where to begin...

[Wizarous]

totally agree mate, almost as nostalgic as EQ for me [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
