My cousins birthday is comingup soon and I want to buy him a PS2 RPG, I've heard that FFX was hated by most FF7 fanboys, so what game is most like FF7?

 

[Kabuki Waq]

wait for advent children. Or get them some other crappy FF game.

 

[Wario64]

Breath of Fire Dragon Quarter. I don't care if he is a FF7 fanboy

Kingdom Hearts has cloud. ZOMG

 

[Gattsu25]

Xenosaga

it's just as good as FF7

Kingdom Hearts? I heard it had Cloud in it. Get Parasite Eve 1, it has that era of Square written all over it.

 

[iapetus]

Kingdom Hearts is almost certainly the right answer if the Disneyness of it won't put him off.

 

[Wario64]

Or the boring gameplay

 

[Gattsu25]

the optional bosses made up for the repetitive gameplay IMO

didn't make up for the camera, though

Or the boring gameplay

Or Gummi ships! Yum!

 

[Prospero]

The FF7 fanboyishness is irrelevant--buy Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne.

 

[Drexon]

"Where can I buy a FF7 Fanboy?"

 

[Shig]

Muppets Party Cruise

 

[Solid]

Kingdom Hearts

He can't say no to that since Cloud from FF7 is in it

 

[Gattsu25]

bah...Xenosaga might actually be too good

recommend this to him: Ephemeral Fantasia

 

[Dujour]

Kingdom Hearts or SMT: Nocturne.

 

[Doom_Bringer]

Xenosaga is a pure utter garbage.

Go with Dark Cloud 2 since there are no good FF games on PS2

"wait for advent children. Or get them some other crappy FF game."

argh I hate comments like these! Not all FF games are crappy.

 

[Gattsu25]

If you want to get him some actually good games that he might be able to enjoy with his PSX RPG experience, get him the original Shadow Hearts and it's sequel

Xenosaga is a pure utter garbage.

I know :b

Suikoden II

Expensive but worth it.

Get FFX for him. Its not as bad as people wanna tell you it is.

Belive me: I am a big FF7 fan! Maybe the biggest FF7 fan in the world ;-)
Buy LEGEND OF DRAGOON for PlayStation 1.
Good RPG and it has some FF7 "in it" ;-)
