Has anyone even HEARD of Suikoden besides me?

Yes, I know that I've posted this before, but I didn't get much response. I'm just curious, because Suikoden is my absolute favorite game.

For those of you who don't know Suikoden (otherwise known as Genso Suikoden) is a Konami PSX RPG. It wasn't a big commercial game like any of the Final Fantasies, but I will tell you right here right now that as much as I like the FFs, Suikoden is a lot better.

There's also Suikoden 2 on PSX, which I also love, and Suikoden 3 on PS2 that just came out, and I own but haven't played yet (I'm anxiously waiting for Thanksgiving break).

And for those of you who are curious, Suikogaiden is a different game by Konami, but it is a side story to Suikoden (hence the "gaiden"). Unfortunatelly, Konami hasn't released them in the US, and in all likeliness, never will.

Well, I liked 1 better, but I've only played through 2 once, and it wasn't until the third time through Suikoden 1 that it became my favorite game. I know that sounds strange, but I didn't really pay much attention to the story the first two times, I just thought it was fun to get all of the characters (which it was and still is).

I just got Suikoden III for PS2 today, I'll let you know what I think of it.

I'm hoping it's as good as the first two!

Ive heard of it but i have never played it before....

[Tygore]

Heard of it from you. That's the only reason I know anything of it at least.

Seen it at the store, read a review or two. But to say it's better than FF, you better have something to back that up, cause on a game forum, them's fightin words.

Just play through the whole game, get all of the characters, and tell me it's NOT better than FF.
But, if you were to do that, you'd have to start with the first one, because the 2nd one and probably the 3rd one aren't as good unless you play the first one. And it's somewhat hard to find, but I think you can usually get it at Gamestop.com
