Forums - Gaming Discussion - Opinion- Pokemon Red is the Best RPG of All Time

Pokemon Red/Blue feel a bit outdated nowadays. The remakes freshen it up though,



 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

While I wouldn't go that far, its an excellent game. It helped launch a global phenomenon that we haven't seen since and is still going strong to this day.



I hightly disagree with this thread.. Pokémon Blue was better.



I'm glad there's a lot of Platinum love. Everybody in the Pokemon community loathes Gen IV but that's what saved Pokemon to me after I just could not getting Hoenn. And I can't stand Gen V either for many reasons, so IV is entirely what kept me interested in Pokemon news for the past three gens.



You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt!  I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading.  After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!

I'm glad to see some Pokemon Platinum love here because it's my favorite Pokemon game.
My favorite rpg overall would be Xenoblade for Wii, followed by Dragon Quest VIII, Kingdom Hearts 2, Kingdom Hearts 1 and Chrono Trigger.

Never got Pokemon, since I was kid I always coupled it up together with Power Rangers and TMNT in my list of things that were mind-blowingly stupid. Never got the appeal of conventional JRPGs either (except Persona 3, which isn't that conventional as a whole, but the combat is pretty much traditional RPG rubbish, still more fun than something like Final Fantasy though), but the ones that break from the norm are almost always guaranteed to be a good time, the first 2 Paper Mario games, Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix, Mother 3 and that meme game that's cool to hate by edgelords nowadays because of over-exposure are this industry's finest in my eyes.



I'm now filled with determination.

There's a difference between best of all time and MY favorite of all time. My favorite is FFX followed closely by FF9. As far as the best ever, it should probably go to FF1 simply because of it's influence on the entire home console industry. I don't think there's another RPG that left a more indelible mark on consoles.

Thats why i put the Opinion disclaimer in the thread. 



My favorite and my opinion for best RPG is Dragon Quest XIII or Final Fantasy IX.

11 hasn't even released yet, how do you know your favourite is 13?

Oops, VIII. I am supposed to be working now, so my mind is between a few things and I fudged up my numerals, lol.

It's not even the best Pokemon game imo, let alone the best RPG xD

I came here to type the exact same thing. With the xD and all. Like, letter by letter, 100% the same lol. That was scary. Are you sure you aren't me?
