Legend of Legaia 😻

[@zzz43344]

Yes and HELL YEAH!

[@DarkMProductions]

Number 1 should have been Squaresoft. Yes, the company. They simply had far too many classics on PS1, that to leave any of them out is... well you can't do it. Xenogears, Final Fantasy VII, Chrono Cross, Parasite Eve 1 and 2, Brave Fencer Musashi, Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy IX, Threads of Fate, Legend of Mana, SaGa Frontier 1 and 2, Square had a near flawless lineup of RPG's on the PS1. Also, not even a mention of Breath of Fire 3 and 4, Alundra, Dragon Warrior 7, King's Field 2, Shadow Tower, Azure Dreams, or Legend of Legaia?

[@slimtim1782]

Dark Mountain Productions Alundra is such a great game and so overlooked.

[@kryw10]

No one talks about Parasite Eve and more and I LOVED that game. The first one, anyway. The game control on the sequel was unbearable.

[@allenmikey]

+Micheal Sands It's always made me shed a tear that Legend of Dragoon never hit it off as much as it should. It does feature standard RPG storytelling and cliche characters, but the game play and battle system were spot on, and as simplistic as it seemed there was quite a bit of strategy needed for certain fights.

[@donder91]

+Micheal Sands I loved Legend of Dragoon. Still do actually, never managed to get it to work with roms and such though. I never bought it but rented it from a videostore every once in a while. At some point I got stuck (somewhere on disc 4) and couldn't find out how to continue, walkthroughs weren't as easy to find back then. I didn't rent it for a few months, and when I wanted to get it again, they did not have it anymore :(.

I Totally agree with you! Chrono Cross is one of my favourite games ever! Not just on ps1 or rpg genres but all kind of games. And If I wasn't played Dark Souls. Definitely I would say it's my favourite! My opinion! ;)

[@paulobreva]

Grandia was the reason why I started and loved playing RPGs and eventually MMOs. No other game could ever give me a sense of adventure, discovery, and wonder. The most memorable part for me was getting past the End of The World and thinking there is so much more to see. Reaching the final boss, the one thing I truly remember learning was that there is no end to the greed of man - too deep for a child me back then haha.

[@Hogscraper]

IX was probably my favorite FF and favorite RPG overall. Such a great game:)

[@cheapshotninja]

'The Legend of Dragoon' is my all time favorite Playstation game. What I enjoyed most about it was how the battling system centered around your sense of timing although it really showed me gamings potential to portray a story and create a new world.

I'm quite happy with the position Xenogears got. It's one of my all times favorites(top 3). Beautiful and daring script, great cast of characters, awesome combat system, nice pace and a very good looker for 1995... I can hardly pinpoint any flaws for that game. Matter of fact i think you guys didn't praise it enough. Taking a look at that list it made me think that me and you guys probably played the same games when we were kids. It's not the first time that you guys nail a list that i just look at and think "i could hardly switch any position around". Thanks +Watchmojo.com !

[@manurumon]

FFVII is my childhood. I wouldn't say it's my favourite game ever, but it was for a really long time. It was my first console game after all. I remember playing mostly platformers and adventure games when I was a kid (Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Tomb Raider...), but the ones I really loved were rpgs. Sadly they weren't commonly found in local stores so FFVII was my only rpg for a couple years. Then I discovered VIII & IX (both of which I loved) thanks to a friend, but the only other rpgs I was able to play were Legend of Legaia and Wild Arms. And, seriously, Wild Arms has the best intro of any psx game if you ask me... that amazingly animated cutscene and that song...

[@kryw10]

Somehow I missed this Wild Arms and I am pissed.

[@Spiran_SphereHunter]

legend of dragoon should've been #1, I would dearly love to play it again, soo many bitter sweet memories

[@WillEatForFood]

Oh man I had SO MUCH FUN with Final Fantasy VII!

[@AnonEyeMouse]

I was glad Vagrant Story got a mention. It was an amazing game with a truly beautifully written story. It had some amazing game play elements including the craft system. It is a travesty that so few pay tribute to it.

[@nico.f.]

+AnonEyeMouse Indeed, I believe it suffered of arriving a little late into the party - in the 2000, same year of release of the PS2. Amazing game nonetheless, probably mi favorite that I played as a kid on the PSX. I dislike JRPG's a lot, so for me to like this one it must be really good, and damn it is. From the great atmosphere and distinct art direction, to the super original and skill-based combat, it sure was a blast. I only hated that characters didn't have voice actors, apart from that it was a great video game.

[@quistian69]

I correctly predicted FFVII topping this list. But not having FFVIII and IX here is almost criminal. Unless a rule specifies only one game may represent a series, those two should have been in the top 3.

[@crono276]

+Jo Hunter That would have been boring.

[@kingdaniel3519]

[@crono276]

[@Nexol13]

+Ken Zhang True, but FFT still has a better story than FF VII. Mostly because the biggest plot twist of the story hasn't been spoiled for everyone like in FF VII.

[@crono276]

[@CraymelMageKeele]

Not even an honorable mention for either Tales of Destiny or Tales of Eternia? Who put this list together?

[@RoguSpanish]

+Alex Savvas Thank you for confirming for me that Tales of Eternia exists, and it's not just something I dreamed up. Because I was pretty sure it was real, but for such a great game to go completely ignored and unacknowledged, even in a list of the best ps1 rpgs, had me starting to doubt my reality.

[@suiken3149]

Tales is an okay series, but not a game changer like most of the list in this top 10. The series wasn't making a huge impact on the genre until Symphonia, which was also overshadowed by PS2 JRPGs. Vesperia is the only time that Tales really excelled as it literally have no competition during its time of release. You can replace Star Ocean with Destiny or Eternia as they have pretty similar gameplay and that's it.

[@123RADIOactive]

Alex Savvas probably just a piece of shit that probably doesn't play a whole lot of RPG stuff nor even do much research other then a simple google search before calling it a day.

I had a feeling it would get screwed over before I even watched. A PS1 game that shows all the different armor/weapons you wear, a combat/combo system that was deep, but understandable as opposed to just clicking attack. Makes me sick how it constantly gets over looked.

[@blcrawford1]

Y MOG FF9 SUCKS BIG TIME DUDE . Except Mog which is cute. " kupo"

[@boxinchito]

They mentioned it. You're stupid

[@syzygy9358]

Chrono Cross has a special place in my heart

[@zzz43344]

Same

[@j3ss3l3nn0x420024]

I wish I could erase my memory of ff7 and star Ocean just to play them for the first time again I miss getting lost in those

[@HellenaHanbaskit]

I loved seeing Legend of Dragoon, Chrono Cross and of course FF7, but I had hoped to see Parasite Eve, even in honorable mentions. One of my personal fave rpgs on that system :) Talk about nostalgia, heh.

[@mariopeloful901]

Is this a joke? Why are FF8 and FF9 not there, I would assume it's because they didn't want to fill it with final fantasy games but then what the hell is final fantasy tactics doing there.

[@Danjoww]

Obviously FFVII was going to get it. Only hardcore Final fantasy fans prefer or know of FFIX I gotta say though i like the list, some really solid picks (except for Grandia). Particullary happy about Xenogears Number 2 spot, that game is literally beyond godlike.

[@ZeCarBin]

Omg I miss Legend of Dragoon so much. Best game I played PS1.

[@kairicrouch5014]

Holy crap I was sooooooooooo happy when Wild Arms was mentioned. Swear to God that was the first game I played

[@IsmaelColumnaMontero]

You guys said that were counting down games that originated on PS1, but FF7 is just another entry on a franchise that started way before on another console... plus, where is Valkyrie Profile? which in fact originated on PS1 and is an entirely new kind of RPG.

[@unholyperiodza5442]

I Like Parasite Eve and you didn't put it there on the list????????????????

[@marioramunno4180]

Eric Cruz wait isn't parasite eve a horror game?

[@unholyperiodza5442]

Mario Ramunno A Horror RPG!!!!!!!

[@marioramunno4180]

Eric Cruz that sounds interesting. Horror is really hit or miss for me but the rpg stuff might make me love it even of the horror isn't great

[@BRINGOLLEUM]

because when you like something, it HAS to be there right? -.-

[@TheRex2037]

um....you're forgetting one that could beat number 1 it's Valkyrie profile

[@dragoons7]

final fantasy 7 and legend of the dragoon are my favorites even named my account on those games.

[@kaeartajos1831]

[@IaijutsuRonin]

What about Front Mission 3, Breath of Fire 3, Alundra, Koudelka, Parasite Eve, Dragon Warrior VII, Saga Frontier II, Legend of Mana, Saiyuki, Valkyrie Profile,Tales of Destiny, Brigandine, Hoshigami, The Granstream Saga, Persona, Disgaea... ???

[@Metro4466]

How are you going to include 16 games into top 10? :D

[@juturna]

No Breath of Fire 3 or Parasite Eve? Boooooooooooo!

[@douglewis7946]

To be fair, good as these games were, they had a LOT of stiff competition.

[@mage1over137]

+Itachi Uchiha Or Persona? I understand why they can't all be the list, but not even honorable mention.

[@crono276]

+mage davee Sad to say, but it's pretty obscure.

[@mage1over137]

Ken Zhang Like Dragon Valor isn't? Also technically Lunar shouldn't even be on the honorable mentions since it is a remake of a sega cd game.

[@crono276]

mage davee Well, it's WatchMojo, they don't do much research. And their list is made by people who vote on their website.

[@blodia-]

I usually don't do this but if Legend Of Dragoon its not in this list I'll get salty af

[@mservin408]

That's what I said!!

[@bretthicksomega]

+Ciryatan I literally posted the same thing.... now Im salty at where it is on the damn list.....

[@general_hayes]

+Brett Hicks One of the best games I've ever played. Some of the best FMVs especially considering the time. Under Appreciated and sadly criticized for it addition system being too difficult. That's what made it fun. Mastering the additions. And overshadowed by every FF game again considering the time. Great memory from my childhood

[@blodia-]

Yeah what the fuck, 8th? atleast top 5

[@bretthicksomega]

Andrew Hayes You sir, are 100% correct The game is better in terms of world, characters, story, music, and gameplay. Its bloody fantastic, thats why its my favorite game. Not my favorite rpg, not my favorite psone game, no, MY FAVORITE FUCKING GAME PERIOD!

[@SJ_1122]

Legend of Dragoon was the best RPG I've ever played. The cutscene graphics were amazing. Too bad they won't remake it.

[@jehizkiel78]

Yep...Final Fantasy 7 was my introduction into the rpg genre!

[@nwawallace]

Seen number 1 coming a mile away. Personally I'd rather Xenogears at number 1, FFIX at number 2 (Instead of VII), Suikoden 2 at 3 and Legend of Dragoon at 4... Probably find a way to squeeze tales of destiny 2/eternia in there as well.

[@Roguhr]

I love how people always rag on people for choosing FFVII in top ps1 lists, Sure, both VIII and IX are amazing, and in some people's opinions, better. But you have to realize that VII holds more significance, in that it was the first FF game most westerners ever saw, and to those that already knew the series, was the first 'next-gen' release. So even if it's not better than it's sequels, it's much more important.

[@victorabysswalker3909]

FF7 is overrated

[@emersonalves6487]

not more than FF6

[@GacktSe7en]

Victor Abysswalker people who say that final fantasy vii is overrated are the ones who don't set the story.

[@ablanuza76]

@@GacktSe7en because IT IS overated. Storywise FFIX, Xenogears and Suikoden 2 were way better.

[@zackreith7]

THE LEGEND OF DRAGOON SHOULD BE NUMBER 1 !!!! D:

[@sounanya3]

FF7 and Crono Cross (amazing soundtrack indeed) were the only ones that blew me away (I also beat FF8, FF9, FFT, Vagrant Story and Xenogears, but none was even close to the first two for me).

[@Sinistralx]

Knew FF7 was gonna get #1 and honestly it belongs there because it was one damn hellava journey. For me, Xenogears, Vagrant Story, and Wild Arms brought the smile, as each had inspirational soundtracks and sleepless night worthy worlds. But Grandia...that you should mention Grandia. Win. Its the story of every little kid who dreamed of a great adventure some day materialized onto a cd. There is no other game (well besides Dragon Quest 7) that has a warmer spot in my heart. Sam from Lord of teh Rings said it best- 'The stories that matter." Sidenote though: Parasite Eve 1, Valkeryie Profile, FF9, Hoshigami- Ruining Blue Earth, and Tales of Destiny cheers~~
