Are they significantly better then Suikoden 3-5? I have 3 and 4, and Teikerias or whatever for the DS. Probably going to play Teikerias first as I still play my DS often where PS2/PS1 I have to be in the mood to start and finish 1 JRPG at a time.

Suikoden 2 is the best in the series. Suikoden, while it has obvious problems, links to Suikoden 2 in certain ways from characters to story points. To get the most enjoyable experience from Suiko 2 I'd advise you to play the original. You don't have to, but if you do you get a better feeling from Suiko 2.

Fantastic games. 

One day I will, I have heard great things, even from friends who don't normally like/play JRPG's. However Suikoden 1 & 2 are expensive and rare to find cheap. I'll put them at the top of my priority list, and won't judge the franchise off 3, or 4.
