I know this topic has probably been beaten to death, but what are your favorite PS2 RPGs? I just bought a PS2 again to go back and play all the greats I missed. What are your favorite or lesser-known RPGs for the system?
Dragon Quest 8 is awesome, though I've never gotten very far into it because of how slow it moves. Still a great game though, i love the humor and the music. I've never heard of Mana Khemia though, i'll have to check that out- and i haven't played the Xenosaga series yet eitherBoredRolePlayer said:Oh god you don't want me doing this but I'll do it (note these might be hard to find).

Yeah I was just typing games that I could find in my drawer that I thought were good, and now that you mention dragon quest 8 I didn't see it in my drawer.....time to go searching. But Mana Khemia is good if you ask me, it's like part FF10 (battle system wise) meets full metal with having to make everything with alchemy. Beware it is niche so good luck finding it.NardBasket said:Dragon Quest 8 is awesome, though I've never gotten very far into it because of how slow it moves.

I have Phantom Brave and I thought it was meh also (I have it on Wii so I didn't list it), and I do own La Pucelle Tactics but I never played it(it's in my psp drawer for the time being due to sorting issues). I'm mostly waiting for it to be released in the states on psp (although it doesn't seem to be happening, but Phantom Brave is getting a PSP release in the states). And yes I do own Atelier Rorona and it's not bad from what I played (I can't really play my console due to school although I am going to beat it doing winter break). But I like it a lot from what I played. And on a note I'm HUGE NIS fanboy (although I'm on the fence about Criminal Girls, I mean NIS made but wow I wouldn't play that in public if it hits the states), and I'm loving the new game ZHP Unlosing Ranger vs. DarkDeath Evil Man.s69-5 said:You play Atelier Rorona yet?BoredRolePlayer said:Yeah I was just typing games that I could find in my drawer that I thought were good, and now that you mention dragon quest 8 I didn't see it in my drawer.....time to go searching.

You're the only person I've seen (other than me) to mention Makai Kingdom anywhere. It was okay, but as far as NIS SRPGs go, it's one of their weaker entries (like Phantom Brave). Have you played La Pucelle Tactics?
