[quote name='elessar123']Traditional RPGs or SRPG/TRPG? Add Brave Story, and I second the Star Oceans. But personally, I didn't like Popolocrois. There's also Mana Khemia but it's probably lower on the list than most things mentioned.
If you're into SRPGs, there's always Final Fantasy Tactics, Jeanne d'Arc, and of course, Disgaea 1 & 2.
If you're into something different/less appreciated, look into Yggdra Union and Riviera, which are not most people's cup of tea.[/QUOTE]
i like all the variations on the rpgs. i will go look up those last two. i'm a huge disgaea fan if you can't tell
To give you a little history, I didn't have a gaming system since the original nintendo until the wii and PS3. Just got a DS for christmas and a psp is on the way. I used to play tons of text only rpgs and actually played them from books with friends. Anyway, I'm getting into all the playstation games that I missed, etc. I am going to pick up FF 1 and 2 as well. I have 4, 7, 8 and the DS XII. Preordered XIII too. So, I'm playing hours and hours of fun catch up
