PSX RPGs with good replay value

RZetlin · April 20th, 2004

I have played RPG like Grandia and Lunar and they are linear and lacking in replay value.

Can someone give me a list of PSX RPGs with a high replay value.

Parasite Eve I and Parasite Eve II are the only ones I can think of atm. They contain some nice replay modes.

I found it quite long.

Harvest Moon: Back to the Nature. This is a great game and its "open ended"

galson · April 20th, 2004

Chrono Cross would be a good choice, it has several endings. You can also try Saga Frontier.

ARC THE LAD I, II & III. Great series, I'm just playing it again. And I'm not the type of gamer who does that regularly. But it worths it.

Well, though technically snes... but they were also released for the PSX, and have been said a billion times around, but you asked. Lots o final fantasy games

Final Fantasy 4, V, IV, Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy VII
Wild Arms
Final Fantasy Tactics (stratigy/rpg-ish)

There's lots more, but it's midnight (pacific), and the M's just finally won, so I think I'm heading to bed. G'nite.

PSX RPGs that have replay values? That's kinda hard because most RPGs don't have replay value since they're so looooong. Though I think games like Chrono Cross is worth the second try because it has New Game+. Any RPG that has New Game+ is worth playing again. Chrono Trigger would be one too. That game was included in the Final Fantasy Chronicles package. Star Ocean 2 is also a good choice since it has multiple endings. Suikoden 1 & 2 are games that you have to play again at least two times because there is no way you would be able to recruit all 108 characters first time playing (unless you used a FAQ).

Blue Spirit · April 20th, 2004

Chrono Cross
HUGE replay value (12 endings)
And over 40 characters

Guardians crusade ,is a very good psx game where you
run across this pink baby thing and try to return it home.
also you collect 100 hundred toy's that you summons in
battle,The Living Toys that you can use for battle make the fights more interesting, plus it’s interesting to see what Baby (the pink creature thing) will evolve into in the end of the game. anyway's fun game.

cloudvii · April 20th, 2004

hmm ,
well Elly , but PE2 isn't an rpg but still it has a good replay value .

* Chrono Trigger
* Chrono Cross

PE2 is an RPG

its an Action/RPG , though they slaughtered many RPG factors the original game had before.

They didn't only slaughter some RPG elements, they slaughtered the whole game.

Isn't "Survival RPG" more correct ?

Um, someone already said it, but I would like to say Legend of Mana : I don't ofen replay games, but I'm still enjoying with this one. ^-^
You aren't boring because there are lots of little funny quests and the game has nice graphics (so beautiful colors *_*). Also, the music is very good.
