SNES Game Suggestions...

[Shady Ultima]

I've seen the Japaneese demo played and it just looks awesome as hell. I dont know planet your from but the FF series is the greatest gaming franchise known to mankind.

I would hardly say they're the greatest... let alone even in the top 5. Because of the Final Fantasy series, I can't play standard RPGS anylonger.

And FF7 had a terrible story, horrid graphics (EVEN FOR THE TIME!) and the worst battle system of them all. How is it the best?

Sorry, but Mario World was a better game.

Anyways,
  Snes is the best system. I'd go with Chrono Trigger. But I'm biased. Although, to be honest, FF3/6 is the best game Square ever put out with the words final fantasy in front of it. (By the way - Square/Enix games that are better than ANY FF - Kingdom Hearts, Dragon Quest 8, Sword of Mana)

Let's face it, Super Mario World is immortal.

And as for Rahl, greatest? :\ Oh dear lord, you'd have to live within a really boxed world to think FF is the greatest RPG series. I feel that Final Fantasy is one of the most overly-loved mainstream series out there. People practically make it a religion and make it out to be some flawless perfection. I say, get out of the box and play other games.

I've become quite hooked on Megaten myself. And I like Mana Khemia and Atelier Iris, and I know you'll say "Mana what, Atelier who?" but this would only prove my point, your playing within a confined area, it actually reflects on creative thought as well. What you play and how much of variety you play will reflect on how much creativity you can make. Since your limiting your gaming experience and choices of material then you will also cripple your creative ability, since it too will be handled in such a manner, within confined environments.

So my advice to you Rahl, is to play different RPGs than Final Fantasy, it isn't the greatest, it's just the most mainstream. You SERIOUSLY need to get your head out of mainstream. It's all fine and dandy but often subject to bloat and limitations. Also, when you get down to it, because of Final Fantasy, you don't hear much about their other game titles like their Mana series which I admit that I liked quite a bit. They were very fun games. As also said, Breath of Fire by Capcom was a great series, up until... uhm... Dragon Quarter... which killed the series. :\

For sure df, SMW is still on my favorite list, even though I havn't played a SNES in stupid long.

Arcanum; of steamworks and magickal obscura <- my favorite RPG, for sure, hands down. I've played that **** soo many times over the last 7 years, and im still finding new stuff in that game.

[ThexXtremeXx]

Well, i guess i'm getting chrono trigger.

LOL, the ads for this page is geek dating.

One good thing is that you can back up ROMs on the computer. Not so with cartridges.

[Darkfox]

And if something happens to the cartridge, then you always have the cart image backed up.

[Rahl]

No I just can't explain it any better than its just better to have the original game for the original system it came out on. Its kind of like having a signed tshirt that was only signed on the first one then mass produced by machines. I'd rather have the original but then again Im a game collector.

[Darkfox]

then mass produced by machines.

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...isn't that what a commercial game is?

If you have any of the original cartridges of any of the games mentioned here - I'd find out where you live and steal them. Truest honest.

[Rahl]

Well you know what I mean. I was trying to make a point from a collector's point of view, although badly it would seem.

[Darkfox]

Yup. It came off as more... elitist.

[HobomasterXXX]

Yeah man, branch off into some less mainstream, and alltogether better series. I would rather have one of the Shin Megami Tensei games than every Final Fantasy game ever made.

[Felix-0]

Try Final Fantasy Mystic Quest

I still have the original of that one too.

That or Illusions of Gaia.

[Rahl]

I've played them all, I just love FF the most. Its not just because their popula rme r its just because the storylines just connect with me very well.

If you need more of a push in the right direction....
