Hell yeah Chrono Trigger.

Am I the only one that hates it when top 100 lists lists one by one? Why can't they do like 10 or 20 per page? Dumb dumb dumb

I'd kinda be surprised on FF7.  Last IGN list I paid attention to put FFVI over FFVII.

FF7 was quite lower i want to say.

I actually wanna say it ended up third behind both US released SNES final Fantasy games.

To be fair,  FF6 is better than FF7.

*dons flame retardant suit*

I hate those lists. They are waaaaay too console centric.

The best and most innovative RPG games were western RPG's and they were on PC most of the time.

allright, I'll give my reactions as I read along.

First, some random JRPG's I've never played.

FFVIII is too high. Then again, its mere existance on such a list is being too high.

Fable 2 ahead of Diablo III?!?!?!

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

More of the usual suspects. Why is an expansion to fallout higher than freaking Diablo 3?

surprised to see Might and Magic
