[PS2] Must Own PS2 Games, or how many middling JRPGs can you suggest?

Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter is fucking $7.99 at GameStop now. Seven dollars and ninety-nine cents. For God's sake, if you haven't picked it up yet, do so. I'm seriously considering buying a backup copy when it's that damn cheap.

I was there yesterday and found a fair few decent games in the PS2 bargain bin, in case people don't really want to fork over more than a couple 10s for some stuff.

Suikoden IV - $9.99
Suikoden Tactics - $9.99
Shinobi - $7.99
Mega Man X: Command Mission - $7.99
Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII - $9.99

I know, people bitch about the quality of most of these games, but I say they're totally worth it for 10 bucks or less.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

XSEED is only a publishing company. All Wild Arms games have been developed by Media Vision (with Contrail contributing to Wild Arms 2), so the gameplay changes were part of their usual "mixing up the formula in every installment" dealie.

Another useful tidbit about this game is that it's $4.99. Got this and Odama today with the coupon, though I'm not going to recommend Odama here since it's a Gamecube game.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'll just strike out games that I feel don't meet your qualifications, RR.

Now, for almost all of these games, I've struck them out for the "time available" component. Games like XII and Persona 3 are really involved. Some RPGs, like Wild Arms 5, I've left off because they aren't as expansive and don't require as much time.

The others, like Onimusha 3 or Zone of the Enders, I've struck because I happen to think they're very meh. I mean, they're probably worth it for that cheap, but I say skip them when you have some better choices in that price range.

I think I'll add Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel to the list. Sure, it's a so-so Baldur's Gate clone, but it's four bucks. One of those games that's more than acceptable when it's cheaper than fast food.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I dropped Zone of the Enders because I find it to be relatively unplayable. Brotherhood of Steel, on the other hand, is just relatively uninspired.

I think it's well worth the four dollars, while Enders is just giving you frustration for five bucks.
