fave TG16 RPG ?
« on: December 16, 2007, 09:03:38 AM »
CD or HuCard - it doesn't matter ,  but keep 'em USA releases!

Right now I am in the middle of Dragon Slayer and I love it.   I also played (and beat) Neutopia and Cosmic Fantasy 2. Those two are 100% utter classics, we all know.  I have Ys and I'm going to start that when I'm done here..

Do I need any other RPGs?  What am I missing out on?

Either Exile or Cosmic Fantasy 2. I don't consider Neutopia to be an RPG but if I did, it'd be #1 instead.

Depends on the definition of RPG.

Turn-based RPG: Probably Cosmic Fantasy 2, but it's a hard choice.
Action-RPG: Ys Book I & II easily
Platform-RPG: If Legend of Xanadu II counts for this, then that would be it. If not, maybe Exile for now, but probably Blood Gear when I finish it.
Strategy-RPG: I haven't played deep into many strategy-RPGs for the Turbo, so I'm going to say Military Madness.
Racing-RPG: Final Lap Twin ;)
Tennis RPG: World Court Tennis ;)
Overall RPG: Ys Book I & II

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Might & Magic III is great if you like 'em long and tough.  It's very expensive, though.

hey,   sorry I posted in this in the wrong forum yesteday.    was a long and dark sunday sitting in front of Dragon Slayer all day.

I agree with everyone ..  regarding Ys, Neutopia, Dragon Slayer, CF2.  oh and Dungeon Explorer

I loved Neutopia - I'm  a sucker for that kind of game play - Zelda was huge for me in the 80s.

You got me curious about Order of the Griffon...  and Exile.

You say that you loved Neutopia, so may I suggest Neutopia II?

Since there's so few US released RPGs, you may want to get all of 'em (or at least most of 'em, considering Dungeon Explorer II, Might & Magic III, and Exile: Wicked Phenomenon are rather pricey).

Final Lap Twin since it had its own creative RPG experience like no other. I just enjoyed the hell out of it especially when it came out back then.

My next would have to be Ys 1 and 2, definitely.

looks like I've got all the RPGs I'm gonna get (wel, maybe I'll check out Order and NeuII) and I'll keep the ones I have.

I was on the fence about Dragon Slayer but it really IS a sweet game and I could very well see myself picking it up again in a cpl years.

Okay seriously guys, an RPG is an RPG :)  That's cheating by putting your top 6 favourites :)

But since everyone else is doing it, I will too.  My favs are:

Ys I & II and Neutopia II
