So, for Christmas, I was giving all 3 of the Shadow Hearts games as a gift. New World is sealed. Hope to start playing them for the first time sometime this year (added to the backlog).

Nice. In case you've played Koudelka, it's sort of a prequel to Shadow Hearts. But not necessary to enjoy the story of SH.

Just keep in mind that Shadow Hearts 1 was originally in development for PS1. They shifted over to PS2 later in production, which can be noticed in the visuals.
The atmosphere in SH1 is one of my favorites, along with Shin Megami Tensei 3 and Majora's Mask.
