Game Informer's "Top 10 Rare RPGs you need"

Quote:

I was reading through my new issue of Game Informer and I found a little tribute list to lesser known rpgs(At least lesser known then Final Fantasy and Dragon Warrior). The list is as follows

10. Shadow Hearts (Playstation 2)
9. Ys BOOK I&II (Turbo Grafix)
8. Tactics Ogre (Playstation)
7. Valkyrie Profile (Playstation)
6. Suikoden II (Playstation)
5. Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete (Playstation)
4. Dragon Force (Sega Saturn)
3. Disgaea: Hour of Darkness (Playstation 2)
2. Earthbound (SNES)
1. Panzer Dragoon Saga (Sega Saturn)

I have Valkyrie Profile, Dragon Force, and Disgaea myself. I can easily agree that those belong on there and I doubt anyone will argue that Valkyrie Profile doesn't belong on the list.

So... RPG Forum what are your thoughts on this list?

10. Looking for it. I have Shadow Hearts 2 and 3, just need 1 to complete my collection. The funny thing is the battle theme from 1 is my most favorite of all time.. and I never even played the game. :ashamed:
9. Never played any Ys game.
8. Heh, I remember reading about that game back in the day when I was playing Final Fantasy Tactics. I used to have the GBA version but never played the PSX copy.
7. Got it. One of the best games ever made, just wish I would have played it sooner.
6. Got it. Suikoden II was the first RPG that lasted longer than I did. Which is a good thing since modern day RPGs are so short.
5. Got it. Not ashamed to say that was one of the hardest RPGs I ever played. Galeon was fracking impossible.
4. Unfamilier. But I used to have a Sega Saturn. >.>
3. Got it. In my opinion, Disgaea has the best gameplay of any RPG to date. The story, characters and music were so-so but the gameplay outshines everything else.
2. I played a few minutes of it (emulated) but never got into it.
1. I had the demo of it for my Saturn. lol

Sure it is, considering most B&M stores no longer have copies of PS1 games. Any sap can get on eBay and get any of these games if they wanted to really. It's a hell of a lot better than Disgaea, too.

You should see the Playstation bin at the Gamestop around the block from my house. Roughly about 10% of they're used games is Final Fantasy IX. I honestly don't know why they have so many copies.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
