After having both Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Grandia III leaked as PS2 classics via exophase, we were ecstatic to see that the game would possibly be coming in the coming weeks. However, much to our surprise Grandia III seems to have released with zero advertisement from Square Enix just like Adventures of Mana did a few weeks ago.
The list is as long as it would take you to grind through Dragon Quest VIII. Here are the best JRPGs on the PlayStation 2.
Good list, kudos for adding Shadow Hearts, Covenant is probably the best Jrpg most people have not played and what an improvement over the first one (plus ties with Koudelka which is an awesome game as well).
Take a look at the libraries of your favorite consoles. I guarantee you, other than a handful of fighting games better suited on the Dreamcast, PS2 still has the best, biggest, and most varied library. Literally something for everyone. JRPGs on PS1 and PS2 really were special.
Edit: the article basically just lists every single JRPG on PS2 lol
Many people have a love for the Jrpg genre. There are many games that show how brilliant it is, so here are 5 games you should revsit.
O how i miss old school jrpgs. They dont make them much anymore. Sea of stars is looking pretty good. And maybe a few others but not many
Hopefully Dragon Quest III remake releases sometime next year. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 releases in 2 months so I'll have my rpg fix this year.
Noisy Pixel talks with GungHo CEO Kazuki Morishita about remastering Grandia III or returning to the series for a proper Grandia IV.
I have been waiting for Grandia 4 for years. Grandia 3 was on the PS2, so long ago. It's time for a new Grandia
But Grandia III was published by Square Enix, wasnt it?? I dont think thats exactly GunGo´s decision...
But apart from that, I NEED GRANDIA ON PS4.
holy....COW! Yes, this was one of my favorite titles in the series.
My copy of G3 is suddenly less valuable XD
This better come to Europe, the original never released outside of Japan and America I believe. The first two games did so would be nice to finally get it.
I've played all three and still own all three, it is one of my favorite JRPG in terms of what a fun adventure it leads you onto.
Those of you looking for it, it re-released for the ps3, not the ps4. I kinda want it for my ps4. I can already play it from the disk on my phat ps3.
Bought both and Setsuna!
