Old games you love to play.Follow

Definitely Chrono Trigger. I recently went through and beat it a 2nd time (my old save file got corrupted). Eventually I'll get around to unlocking all the endings.

I also recently purchased the old NES Kirby game off of the Wii Store, and I've been having fun playing that again too.

My absolute favorite though, is FF9. I'm still impatiently waiting for Square and Sony to get off their *** and release it on the PSN. Going by how they spaced out the release of 7, 8 and Tactics, they should have released 9 sometime last month.

This was the first RPG I ever played (thank you, SEGA channel). Awesome game.

x2 for Baldurs Gate, that was good stuff.

I still MUD from time to time, that's always a classic time waster. Or some 'ol LoTRD and Trade Wars.

A really old computer game I loved to play, and I've since forgotten the name, but you built tanks, planes, ships, and slowly moved out and discovered your world while looking out for the enemy (the computer). It's what Starcraft is now, but like in 1992.

Monkey Island and King's Quest 6. I spent soo much time on those. Oddly enough, KQ 6 was the only game from that series that I ever played...

As for games that are FF like, Phantasy Star IV and Star Ocean are two of my favorite RPGs.

SNES:
Chrono Trigger
Super Mario RPG (God, I wish they would port this to GBA/DS)
Sailormoon RPG (only done through emulation, of course)
Donkey Kong Country (1, 2, and 3)
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Final Fantasy IV & VI

PC:
Master of Orion (1 & 2)
Master of Magic
Civ (I and II)
Alpha Centauri (and the Alien Crossfire x-pack)
SimCity 2K
An awesome little RPG called Castle of the Winds
Mordor: The Depths of Dejenol (which has nothing to do with Tolkien)
High Seas Trader
Lords of the Realm (I & II)
Lords of Magic
Betrayal at Krondor (this actually took me away from the PC for a bit by inspiring me to read just about the complete works of Fiest)

Original Game Boy/GBC:
Donkey Kong Land (1)
Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

GBA (Is this "old" yet?):
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance


That's all I can think of right now, though there's probably more.

Been playing the PSX version of XCOM: UFO Defense the last few days on my PSP. Fun game for its time.

Shameless plug but who cares as long as you can play the games right?

PSO:BB

I just started up on the SCHTHACK server. People are helpful, and the game feels just like I remember, plus better drop rates.

While not RPGs in the role-play sense, I am shocked (and a little disgusted) at the lack of mentions for two of the best games ever made, and on the opposite side of the spectrum...

Shenmue I & II (Dreamcast. Xbox version of II sucked. It had crappy English dubbing again).
Deus Ex

Fabulous games. I also like to play games which never came out in the UK. And there's lots of them. Chrono Cross, Chrono Trigger (until the PSX re-release), Super Mario RPG etc. etc. etc.
Also, I feel Suikoden and Suikoden II also kinda fall under this section as they were released for about a week and then deleted. Cost a bomb to buy now-a-days.

I never played Skies of Arcadia, but I do still have a Dreamcast. I might have a look on eBay.
