From Wikipedia

"Suikoden (幻想水滸伝, Gensō Suikoden?) EN-us-Suikode.ogg (help·info) is the first installment of the Suikoden series by Konami. It is a console role-playing game developed and published by Konami that was released initially in 1995 for the Sony PlayStation. A North American release followed one year later, and a European release came the following March. The game was also released for the Sega Saturn in 1998 only in Japan. On December 22, 2008, Suikoden was made available on the PlayStation Store for use on the Sony PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable consoles.

The game centers around the political struggles of the Scarlet Moon Empire. The player controls the son of a Scarlet Moon Empire general who is destined to seek out 108 warriors (referred to as the 108 Stars of Destiny) in order to revolt against the corrupt sovereign state and bring peace to a war-torn land.[1] The game is loosely based on the Chinese novel Shui Hu Zhuan.

The game features a vast array of characters both controllable and not, with over ninety characters usable in combat and many more able to help or hinder the hero in a variety of ways."

i've read that chinese novel. in english, it's called Outlaws of the Marsh. 108 people band together and become outlaws to oppose the corrupt government in place. each time the government sent troops, they were able to repel them because of mass defections (a lot of people hated the government) and the difficulty of the marsh terrain.

in the end, though, betrayal caused them to lose and they all died. the novel is over 2000 pages long. very good read though. the characters are far more interesting than the ones in suikoden. for example, they had a guy called Black Whirlwind who wielded twin axes "as large as a man's torso" and he would get into fights on a moment's notice due to his hot temper.

five was good i would like it to be more like 1 and 2 the artwork is great and the 2d is better but regardless when the next suikoden game is here i will be getting it that day
