Without Grandia II on that list, it loses a lot of credibility.

I never played the PS2 version, but the Dreamcast version is epic!

I'm not a fanboy, I just try to tip the balance in favor of logic and common sense.

Where's Legend of Dragoon, where's Final Fantasy IX, Where's Chrono Trigger ??? This list is completely messed up.

Wow, second page and no one mentioned Earthbound? Its not my #1, but I'd definitely put it somewhere in the top 10.

I will always remember Earthbound for the scratch and sniff stickers in my old Gamepro magazines as a kid.

I VETO your list. My list (top 5, 'cause I'm lazy)

5) Xenosaga
4) Chrono Trigger
3) Final Fantasy VII
2) Final Fantasy VIII
1)

I think FF7 is great game, but a grossly overrated one.

And yet you put it over Chrono Trigger?

1. FFX

2. CT

/IMO

Like I said, even though I think FF7 is way overrated, it's still a great game, imo.

Speaking of overrated, Chrono Trigger is overrated among JRPG fans. I mean it was a good game and all, but not that good.

I think that has to with when you played the game. Chrono Trigger might be overated to some but to others its the greatest game ever made. Chrono Trigger was the first rpg I ever really played and I remember staying up all night for weeks playing the game, I think i was around 9 years old at the time it came out and would seriously start playing when I got home from school and the next time I would look at the clock all of a sudden it would be like 4am. I played through the game so many tmes that it would be impossible to not include the game in my top 3 of all time. I think this is similar to all of the praise a lot of people give Final Fantasy 7, I personally thought the game was fun but overated. But there were plenty of people who think this game is the greatest rpg ever made and that has to do with the same effect that Chrono Trigger had on me. If Final Fantasy 7 was the first rpg you really played its going to give you that same emotional attachment to the game that others have for Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy 6 or even Final Fantasy 10.
