August 18, 200520 yr Didn't see that coming, eh? I'd buy a gamecube, if I had a tv that is. Not owning one is a bit of a hindrance if one is interested of this genre. No when that is said, recommend something to me. I widen the possibilities a bit, by saying that I have rom capability. I hope I get at least one reply. This isn't exactly the easiest topic. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food.

August 18, 200520 yr I actuallly liked Grandia 2 for the PC... Well Rom wise: SNES JRPGs you can get them here.
August 18, 200520 yr I like most of the Final Fantasy series, Xenogears, and suprisingly Kingdom Hearts. I haven't played too many JRPG franchises however.
August 18, 200520 yr The trouble is mus, that the JRPG's on the PC (namely the FF series), have been VERY BAD portings - despite the fact their orignal PS format was excellent.
August 18, 200520 yr Author Arghh I know, Jags. FF 8 was just horrible. Thank gods I didn't buy it. Thanks for the replies people. I'll try to survive. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

August 18, 200520 yr Bad ports are indeed a big problem. Let's take Grandia 2: Cliche Storyline(but it had its moments),bad controls,tedious battles(at times,tho I did enjoy the combat system). Still it kept me playing for 10 hours straight.
August 18, 200520 yr Author That's why I try to stay with emulators, ports just crush expectations. 10 hours straight? I remember spending roughly the same time with FF 6. What a game. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden.

August 18, 200520 yr It's still one of my longest gaming runs,I used to eat with the characters. Ah,the memories. You might want to try a PSX emulator. All games bought legit,of course.

Too bad ShadowPaladin wasn't around much. He's usually into JRPGs. "Console exclusive is such a harsh word." - Darque"Console exclusive is two words Darque." - Nartwak (in response to Darque's observation)
August 18, 200520 yr Pfft - 10 hours? Pathetic. Back in the day I played Championship Manager 2 for 18 hours straight - slept for 6 hours - and then played it for another 18 hours.

August 18, 200520 yr You can try Anachronox. It is not a jrpg. AFAIK It is a console style rpg. http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/anachronox/index.html
August 18, 200520 yr Ok im a RPG newbie and I dont know what all the abbreviations like jrpg,mmorpg.crpg ect ect. If some one could shed some light on this that would be brilliant Otherwise you can just laugh at me for my lack nerdyness :">

August 18, 200520 yr JRPG=Japanesse Role-playing game. MMO=Massive Multiplayer Online CRPG=Computer Role-playing game
August 18, 200520 yr JRPG means japanese role playing game. Like final fantasy series. MMORPG means massively multiplayer online role playing game. Like world of warcraft. CRPG generally means computer role playing game. Like Fallout. But sometimes it refers to console style role playing game.
August 18, 200520 yr It's still one of my longest gaming runs,I used to eat with the characters.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Eat? You aren't an addict! I have been known to game solidly for about a day, without stopping for food ... When Half-Life 2 came out, I installed it (which took until about noon) and then played it until about 4am, fell into bed with bleeding eyes, woke up at about 7-8am, and finished it at about 11am ... :D Don't get me started on Civ 2 ... I lost months of my life, a couple of days straight at a time (I was younger then ) ... OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
August 18, 200520 yr Author Sheesh, I remember when HL 2 came out. Our school got several suddenly absent pupils. 30 hours straight. Must have been bliss. Though the guy in question is a zen-buddhist so long periods of mayhem come naturally.

August 18, 200520 yr Yeah, I thought it was paced really well. When I replayed it (right through) a few weeks later (not in one session, though), it was a lot harder than I remembered it ... just shows you how the mind adapts to the environment ...

Though the guy in question is a zen-buddhist so long periods of mayhem come naturally. Edit: Why do I always make a typo when using shift or writing remeber? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hah! You do realise that you spelt remember wrong in that edit right? We had a couple that did that in our school to. I know when people are absent, because of video games and when they are truly sick. They always hype the game just before release and then mysteriously disappear for a day or two. My sick days never fall on game release days. They just all magically happen to appear on fridays though. "
