Anyway, I've still got the RP bug. I'm leaning towards Chrono Cross (bargain buy!), or Grandia XTreme (though only if Cam Clarke supplies a voice; "MELFICE!" ), but I'm always open to other RPG recommendations.

Also, I still want to plump for a new game to play on Halloween. I was going to get Resident Evil: Code Veronica X, but I caved and bought it last week. D'oh. For some reason, Black & White seems like it'd be a neat game to play on that particular evening

Anyway, what would be your suggestions on that front?
Silent Hill 2 is right out, however, because I'm not in the market for a new pair of pants right now

Chrono Cross is a simply great RP game, even if the "good" ending did suck. Still, very worth playing.

If you've never played and you can get your hands on it, the Lunar series is great, too.

Makes for good replay, though, because you can get those characters while getting the other endings.

But yes, I do agree there were far too many. CT's 7 was good, even FFVI's 14 was good. 30+ is just far too many.

Seriously, what were you doing for the second half of the game?
Me: "I thought we had to go find Lynx?"
Game: "Nope, we have the board this pirate ship first"
Me: "What?"
Game: "Then we have to go fight some dragons"
Me: "..."
Game: "Then we can go find some more characters that you'll never use"
Me: "But I'll never use them..."
Game: "Then we can talk with some NPCs"
Me: "What happened to Lynx?"
Game: "He went on vacation"
WTFY

Just Nwist had this to say about Punky Brewster:
IMO Chrono Cross sucked

*agrees*

Edit: Final fantasy X would be the next best thing although Tidus was the most anoying character EVER, the game is still fun.

On its own, CC is a fine game, but those two glaring flaws are why people don't put it up to CT's standards.

After I saw this I disregarded the other replies because anything after this isn't worth mentioning

Still, I like it. And Starkey's walk is adorible when he's on point.

Lyinar Ka`Bael had this to say about Optimus Prime:
From what I've read on Grandia XTreme, while it will be a great game, it's not going to be as true to its RP roots.

Chrono Cross is a simply great RP game, even if the "good" ending did suck. Still, very worth playing.

If you've never played and you can get your hands on it, the Lunar series is great, too.

as a proud owner of G:X, i see no reason that it's not true to its roots. it plays exactly like every other grandia game that's ever existed.
