Story-focused RPGS on the PS2

Hi guys,

been ages since my last post...

Anway - I got a question and I am pretty sure you can help me with this.
I just got my hands on a brand new playstation 2.
Now the real expensive part starts - the games.
To avoid lots of wasted time and cash I want to ask what games you'd recommend.

The genre I am looking for are RPGs (or SRPGs) strongly focused on Story.

So far I got
--------------------
Arc: Twillight of the Spirits (which has storywise been mediocre so far)
Front Mission 4 (looks promising)
Star Oceans (REALLY good)
Summoner 2 (not so great)
Jade Cocoon 2 (too child-oriented)
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne (nice and more adult-oriented which is a plus)
Disgaea (weird...)
Phantom Brave (weird as well)

Apart from the obvious (I already ordered FFX and X-2), what can you recommend?
I don't mind pink-colored flying cats that can talk,
but generally a "serious" game appeals more to me.
I currently consider the ps2 installments of
Wild Arms, Suikoden, Grandia, the Saga Series, Breath of Fire, but sure there is more out there?


Cheers

Varlis
