In the wake of the Suikoden II news, J. Hugo from Kaboomshark goes looking for more PS1-era RPGs that should see a release on the Playstation Network--specifically ten of them.
After never being released outside of Japan, a fan translation of PS2-era Tales of Destiny 2 is about to hit beta.
A trip down the nostalgia lane, or a historical journey the games that gave birth to the hack and slash genre. Here are the best ones.

Square Enix suggested they might remaster more games from their storied archives—here are the classics we’d like to see get a new coat of paint.
I would definitely enjoy a Xenogears remaster. Recently finished Legend of Dragoon again (this time with platinum trophy) and would love to dive back into Xenogears with Fei and the rest of the crew.
It needs more than a remaster though, I hope they can turn disc 2 into a full game..
I wonder how they would even handle a xenogears remaster
Would they give it to monolith soft (the original developers) to handle, and more then likely make it a Nintendo exclusive, cue the endless bitching from Sony fans...
Or will they do it themselves, thus not finishing the original story as intended
"... and more then likely make it a Nintendo exclusive"
I would think it'd eventually hit all the platforms much like the Front Mission 1st Remake. That way no one would be 'bitching' regardless of your platform preference lol.
They don't need the original people , they already have the foundation of characters ,world and lore to work off of.
Honestly it's not that big of a game if you really examine it by modern standards , it's how they present everything that makes it seem so grand especially with how epic the story/music is . SE have good writers that could incorporate post release lore of perfect works and such if they ever remade it from the ground up.
Square Enix classics? dont they mean Squaresoft. Square Enix dont make classic games, just games with pretty graphics, no heart & soul, boring & over stuffed with woke Gen Z cockiness.
But while were on the subject i would love too see a remaster of Front Mission 3.
They already announced a Front Mission 3 remake. Doubt they'll also do a remaster.
I will get the remake but i still want a remaster cos with all remakes they lose a lot of the original magic the original game had.
Pretty sure its going to be a remaster of the game, similar to what's been done with the first two games, not a remake.
FF7r is certainly more a remake of FF7 than a remaster for instance.
Now, if they did Gun Hazard remaster...
Yeah they call it a remake like "Front Mission 1st Remake" but I'd consider it more of a remaster as it doesn't change any of the core gameplay but basically just sharpens up the graphics. I think they added a couple of new features also but I still think it's more of a remaster.
Like @Godmars290 suggested, FF7Remake fits the mold of a remake since they 'remade' the game from the ground up, changing the battle system completely, and retelling the story with a lot of different elements added.
But I guess they can call it what they want since they're making it lol.
Exactly. SquareSoft merged with Enix shortly after Final Fantasy X and it has never been the same.
I'd like to see dragon quest make it to the ps4, but I know it's unlikely since it's a Nintendo exclusive...
:(
LOL that is crazy I was just playing Legend of Legaia this morning. MMM the good times of RPG goodness.. I wouldn't mind any or all of those comming to The Store
RPG's are my heart & soul when it comes to video games. Especially a really good one with puzzles. Dragon Quest, Phantasy Star, Suikoden, Vagrant Story, Vandal Hearts, that's just to name a few. I know Playstation 4 will have some great RPG's, (I'm hoping it starts with Bound By Flame and Shadow Of Mordor) but some of these classics, Dragon Quest, Vagrant Story, Suikoden, Star Ocean, and Phantasy Star in particular, are definitely worth an upgrade.
