O RLY? Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't those have a very noticable anime feel to them?

[grayout.livejournal.com]

Disgaea - only if you count 12 year olds count as OMGBISHIES.
Dark Cloud 2 - ... not really. Animated, yes, but not anime.

Shadow Hearts I/II definitely don't, Suikoden doesn't really, either, plus Suikoden III has a female lead character (if you choose her to be -- personally I like III the best in the series). All the men in Suikoden are definitely MEN, too.

Unless you think THIS is "bishie."

Word. I don't know, it just seems that as the Sony churns out crappier and crappier games or ones that seem more cookie cutter, I find myself straying away and looking towards the X-Box platform. Whenever I have an rp fix, I don't pop in Final Fantasy (I could never get completely into those anyways), but put in some good Elderscrolls, currently Oblivion. Mmm, I'd rather be whacking down Spider daedra then watching cut scenes with adrogynous pretty boys any day.

[grayout.livejournal.com]

Him too! One of the possible main characters in Suiko III. :D

[grayout.livejournal.com]

Final Fantasy is kind of a bad basis for RPGs as a whole, especially for "all Playstation RPGs." There are a ton of way better games than Final Fantasy out there. D:

[zhoutaisdayoff.livejournal.com]

I seen Disgaea stuff. Too 'cartoony' for my tastes.

There maybe -FEW- exceptions to the rule, but in the grand scheme of things, nearly all PS2 RPG games are nothing more than plotless eye candy.

[fuckyeah.livejournal.com]

Oh I know! I still have a fondness for rpgs other than Final Fantasy (ones I could actually get into and finish, always a plus XD;;) but what I said still holds true; I would rather play Elderscrolls than other rpgs that seem to have a more linear story. :|

Rogue Galaxy was atrocious. It's only redeeming features were Zegram and Deego. After playing it, I almost thought I -DID- step into an FF game.

[grayout.livejournal.com]

Only like all XBox games are shoot-em-up plotless FPSes! *dies*

[zhoutaisdayoff.livejournal.com]

Not to mention Knights of the Old Republic, it's sequel (The Sith Lords), Fable and Jade Empire, where you -CAN- be evil bastards.

1. Since it was made by Microsoft, I figured a lot of the games would be released for the PC as well as the console, so I didn't bother buying an Xbox. Turned out the selection was mostly first-person shooters and racing games anyway, which I'm... not a fan of.

I played Jade Empire for a while and it was pretty fun, but it's not worth getting a whole system just for one or two games.

4 & 7. I thiiink I know who you two are. Well, I know 4 for sure, because I just so happened to see that entry a few days ago.

I agree with 7 by the way. Not much of a secret though ]: Doesn't everyone?

[zhoutaisdayoff.livejournal.com]

To call Half-Life a plotless FPS is like calling Hiruma a saint.

[zhoutaisdayoff.livejournal.com]

Uh oh. Is this going to turn into a console pissing match?

[grayout.livejournal.com]

Same with calling Shadow Hearts plotless and anime.

I'm serious, if you're looking for an RPG, try the Shadow Hearts series (1 or 2, 2 is better). The fighting system is ACTUALLY unique, has combo moves, etc, and the plot is out there--and semi-based on history. And in 2, your characters are a demon possed guy, a kickass girl WHO IS NOT A LOVE INTEREST zOMG, a wolf, an old man, a flaming bodybuilder with a butterfly mask, etc, etc, and IT'S A SERIOUS SEMI-DARK GAME THAT MAKES SENSE. :D

And Hiruma is TOO a saint. Of football!

[klytaemnestra.livejournal.com]

2. Ah, irresponsible, leeching lame cosplayers who think they're great at a character.

3. I'm partial to more the minor characters than the main ones, as well.

4. Y HALO THAR CASE.

[grayout.livejournal.com]

I CAN PISS FURTHER THAN YOU

*DIES*

[klytaemnestra.livejournal.com]

Whoever that is, I would hit it with the mighty fist on an angry god!

[zhoutaisdayoff.livejournal.com]

I will take your word for it.

But I'm still not convinced.

[zhoutaisdayoff.livejournal.com]

ONLY BECAUSE YOU HAVE A PENIS

[grayout.livejournal.com]

Geddoe! From Suikoden III.

[grayout.livejournal.com]

SO IT STILL COUNTS

[amazingjana.livejournal.com]

YEAH WELL I PISS FIRE.

[grayout.livejournal.com]

LASERS

[klytaemnestra.livejournal.com]

Mm ... cheekbones. Eyepatch.

MOAR!

[zhoutaisdayoff.livejournal.com]

You two should get those looked at :P
