Lol I just had a huge discussion with Strike and ZXM about how ridiculously hard Baiten kaitos is on hard mode. Because of those 3 fucking bosses at once. D:
Also Tales of Phantasia is fucking horrible imo.
Also you haven't played Phantom Hourglass yet ;o; do that first.
Also Daggerfall/Morrowind/Oblivion
Do it. And Megaman Legends 1 and 2.

Agreed. I only liked the music, but that's just because I like violin music.

Good to know, lol. Wikipedia gives great coverage on videogame series, but doesn't always include ratings in their pages.

You pretty much named my favourite RPG series: Zelda and Tales.

But the Shining series is also great. I've only played the Tactical games, so I can only vouch for Shining Force 1, 2, and 3 part 1, but it is definitely my favourite tactical series.

Civilization is a great series too, and while they aren't so much sequels, they do have a number of differences between each installment, so it is a different experience with each installment, and not just a graphics update.

War/Starcraft is a good series too, but forget World of Warcraft, and of course Diablo is incredibly addictive.

I have played Shining Force 1 and 2, and Warcraft and Starcraft, and they are great games, but I'm not a fan of the RTS genre so they have no replay value for me. :(

Post by: xplody08 on August 23, 2008, 01:13:36 AM
Games I love and have or need ;D :
Final Fantasy series
Lufia series (A NEW ONE NEEDS TO BE MADE!)
Zelda series
Tales series (TRYING TO HUNT DOWN THE FEW ENGLISH VERSION ONES ALL...6 OR WHATEVER OUT OF ABOUT 15!!! :mad:)  ;8
Star Ocean series
Rogue Galaxy
Dark Chronicle series
Chrono series (still need chrono cross!!!)
Shining Wisdom
Prince of Persia series (Can't wait for new one look awesome!!!!)
Donkey Kong series (I wonder if they will make a new one...?)
Banjo Kazooie series (new one looks awesome too!)
And many others!
;)
Well I work in a game store (GAME) so I get around through my games!  ;D
Title: Re: Game Series You Need to Play and Beat Continuously for the Rest of Your Life
Post by: Moss. on August 23, 2008, 02:53:17 AM
I tried Lufia, but I just couldn't get into it.

Dark Chronicle (Dark Cloud, here in America) is a great series, though.
And Rogue Galaxy looks pretty sweet, too.


Shadow Hearts is another series I forgot on my list. I'm told it's very good.

dot hack series

and

though not really a series, but a good game anyways ... Secret of Mana >_<
Title: Re: Game Series You Need to Play and Beat Continuously for the Rest of Your Life
Post by: Moss. on August 23, 2008, 03:19:21 AM
NO! Fuck you! No Secret of Mana! I made a rant thread about that shitty, over-rated game in the sewers a few months ago!

And actually, yes, it IS part of a series! The Mana series, which has like 6 or 7 games in it!

Secret of Mana 2 is better, and Legend of Mana is phenomenal.

But Secret of Mana is utter crap!
So is Dawn of Mana, unfortunately, since it's the latest installment.

:mad:

Hate that game. :\



and I have two of the dot hack games. I got bored by the time I got 4 hours into the second game, and have no desire to play them again. :\

I also forgot a bunch of Castlevania games. The ones for GBA are especially awesome. I go back and play those games like every year or two, which is really what this thread is about; games you always find yourself coming back to.

Post by: RMXPokemaniac on August 23, 2008, 03:27:31 AM
This is pretty much the ultimate list of video games for me to finish, right here. Of course, having money and time would help, but I'll get around to every single one of these in due time...

Except maybe Resident Evil and Persona games, but we'll see.

Post by: haloOfTheSun on August 23, 2008, 03:27:37 AM
Lufia isn't a bad game but it gets terribly boring after a while. Especially when you have to battle after every 3 steps. Lufia 2 is better, but still.

You seem to have left out Castlevania =o Symphony of the Night and the GBA ones are a must.

EDIT: lol 2 posts while I was posting.
Title: Re: Game Series You Need to Play and Beat Continuously for the Rest of Your Life
Post by: xplody08 on August 23, 2008, 09:15:15 AM
Symphony of the Night was the best! Secret of Mana 2 was awesome I thought, but I still need to play Legend of Mana though... :-\

Lufia 1's enemy encounter rate was horrible, especially towards the end with all of the tough enemies, great story anyway.

Resident Evil 4 on WII was awesome and pretty freaky if you weren't quick enough! Especially when two, as I call them, 'Chainsaw Nanas' are running at you!  :tpg:

I have one of those, and one of those.
Persona 3, by Shin Megami Tensei, for the PS2.
Tales of Symphonia, for the Nintendo Gamecube.
Both of those games are epic, and a friend of mine is addicted to both of them. Not me, I'm only addicted to Persona 3. I already finished TOS when I was a little younger, but Persona 3 (FES Edition) is new to me.

I've played all Personae and SMTs for PS2, don't get me wrong. But the SNES versions are so different compared to those.

Or maybe it's just the 3D thing

Shin Megami Tensei arent the people who make the games :P

I can't say i have played the ones on the Snes though, gonna have to find them sometime.

I have done digital devil saga 1 (currently playing 2) as well as Lucifer's call (Nocturne)

The SMT games for SNES are really difficult, and actually kind of boring. I tried getting into it, but just couldn't. It's really rough because it's all in 1st person, but not like doom, it's like a dungeon crawler, and you get lost really easily because it's SNES and every room looks exactly the same.

I love the Metal Gear series. It's one of the best series ever made, but to me its the kind of thing where once I know the story, I don't really have any urge to go back through it.

OK!


I guess I'll use my cigarettes I hid in my STOMACH!!


AWESOME!!!
