I mainly played Suikoden II. (I think) Whichever one where you take over some white castle and just recruit people and that is basically your HQ and you can choose your party from there. I liked it a lot.
I tried out Suikoden III a long time ago and the beginning of the game bored me pretty badly so I took it back. It was nothing like its predisesscor (sp?)
Yea thats the case here also, the first 2 we're well masterpieces even with their simple system. But they we're by far the most mature stories in an RPG you could find in those days for any game!

I'm guessing you forgot about FF VII which came out before Suikoden II... ?
No i didn't, i just found suikodens to be in my opinion ( mind the shaddy graphics compared to 7) more mature. Im more of a medeival fan so suikoden was just right. FInal fantasy i finally got into about a couple years after it came out, i bought it but never played it much. lol, but i see your point on final fantasy
i own all the Suikoden's that are out so far but i would have to say that the first two was pimp compared to any game at the time.. FFVII did rule but Suikoden I & II is in my opinion nothing alike.. over 108 guys to recruit and you can even play with almost all of em.. killer games!
I personally am obsessed with Suikoden, the characters i felt you got into more then other RPG's. As for Final Fantasy my fav. was 9, lol, it reminded me of the original FF's
lol 4 wasent the deepest by any means...it was like only 20-25 hrs long? 3 was the deepest but I hated it..I like 4..its the best and 2 comes a close after it.
Yea 4 was short, theonly downside was the bland characters, and the fact you had a random battle every honestly 2 seconds in the water. which is ok.,.,....for the first 10 mins. 3 i found to kiddy like, not the best story..
Oh by the way for anyone here who is all about the original, there is Rumours that they are making remakes of them for the PSP.....the release date was set around the new Suikoden 5 which was stated to be pushed back from feb. (north american release)
I love the suikoden games, they are my most favorite games of all time.
My favorite would be either 2 or 5.
my least favorite is 3.
i like 4 unlike alot of people who don't like it. i don't think 4 has bland characters, the only bland thing is na-nay;the place is so grey and boring.
Suikoden is my favorite rpg series too. I have all the games released stateside. My favorite is #2. Least favorite is #4. Four is not that bad, but just the weakest of the series. I thought Tactics complemented it really well. I can't wait for 6..I hope it takes place after suikoden 2 or 3. They have had two games in a row in the past..time to move ahead.
It's probably my favorite all around series. The first two were amazing, the third was a let down but not terrible, well, terrible by Suikoden standard. Fourth was a step up but still a bit of a let down and the fifth had a great story but not enough game play, IMO.
I Loved Sukioden also, but i think it lost its touch after 3. I just don't think it transitioned too well into 3d, but thats just me. Another thing i wanted to note was that due to really bad sales on the sukioden remake, don't expect to see it stateside for PSP.
Also has anyone realized they are making a DS sukioden? im definitely going to try that out
