"If there has ever been a game made for the ADD generation it's XSEED's upcoming RPG for the PSP, "Half-Minute Hero." To my knowledge, it's the first game that comes to mind where you have to save less than a minute to save the world. That's right, much like the "Warioware" series, "HMH" cuts out all the fluff, but, unlike "WarioWare," "HMH" keeps the substance. There's definitely a lot more than thirty seconds worth of gameplay, as there are actually four different, intermingling story lines (each with their own unique, time-based gameplay mechanic), and, a Goddess of Time, who allows you to buy time from her, therein extending the gameplay. It's one of the most creative ideas I've ever..."
RPGFan - "Over the years, those of us who love RPGs have spent a lot of time with Sony's consoles. The PlayStation 2, for example, was the undeniable king of home consoles for RPGFans of its time. However, when it comes to handhelds, the PlayStation Portable faced an uphill climb from the day it was released. In Japan, it came on the scene just 10 days after Nintendo's DS, but the gap was three months longer in the US. And although both consoles had great features, the DS went on to outsell the PSP two to one."
Yea the games on the list are good but the order is iffy in some parts. Not a terrible list though.
To be honest I was expected something better from RPGFan & disappointed very hard at the end.. for example Crisis Core on No3 is outrageous & completely ridiculous choice... & then we have Kingdom Hearts which I can't even call rpg on No8.. tragic nothing else to say many other wrong selection no reason to mention them all & it's pointless this list is simply teribad, at least they put Trails in the Sky high enough this I'm sure is something most ppl agree with.
Weird list... Some games just shouldn't be on there, like (I might grilled for this, but) Star Ocean 2, and Lunar. Those games are seriously overrated by the rpg community.
Tales of Eternia and Breath of Fire 3, although ports, should really be on there. And what about Dissidia? It's got a ton of rpg elements to it, and certainly takes as long as any rpg to fully complete.
Also I never played Trails in the Sky, but that girl looks EXACTLY like Kid from Chrono Cross.
Let us Cling Together cannot touch FFT. Besides that, it's all games I wish I played
Whenever there’s a Steam sale, there’s usually a few games that are tucked away in a corner somewhere that have no advertising. Even though most of these aren’t big enough to be featured on the main page, they are still gems that should be bought up. We’ve compiled a list of games that we feel either deserve to be purchased and is an incredible value. The rule is that it has to be at least 70% off, otherwise there’s a chance it will drop in price again before the sale ends.
Rice Digital takes a look at the bite-sized RPG that,though now well known, many people still have yet to try... to their detriment.
