I first encountered Valkyrie Profile on the PSP since it never came out in Germany on the PS1, but I can describe the game in two words. NIBELUNG VALESTI! *blast* Nice game. |

RevengeVirus | The first two were gold but 1 was released on the Playstation Network for some 10 bucks, if you want Suikoden 2 you'll have to either pay out the ass on eBay or mod your PSP to play PSOne games like I did and download it. | |

Nick | The first Suikoden was pretty good as well. | |

That's a shame, although I understand the sentiment. I have become a bit disenfranchised with the Final Fanftsy series (7, 8, 10, and X-2 especially, along with many aspects of 9) But they have some great developers under their umbrella. Tri Ace is the real driving force behind Valkyrie Profile, Radiata Stories, and the Star Ocean series. You might want to give these games at least a chance despite SquareEnix being the publisher. |

This game had always intrigued me and years after it had been out (and consequently soared in price), I finally managed to hunt down a copy of my own. I *still* haven't played it, though, given that I tend to play mostly just RPGs and they can take up a hell of a lot of time. Still, have it, so hopefully one of these days, I'll get to playing it. Heh, bought Suikoden 2 new when it came out because I loved the first one. Really glad I did, hehheh. |

Wait, what's wrong with the graphics? I always thought this game had good sprites and backgrounds and the amount of portraits they put into this game is pretty impressive. It's also obviously better looking than just about every 3D game on that system, because goddamn, those were some ugly textures and models. And this isn't hindsight either, I knew at the time FF7 and Resident Evil came out that they looked like crap outside of the FMVs. |

kakumei | valkyrie profile! although i never managed to finish the game (i refused to send lucian to valhalla), i really enjoyed it. i enjoyed it so much that i bought the PSP port of it when it came out (still haven't finished it, by the way-- my brother borrowed my PSP and hasn't returned it yet). and the soundtrack! simply amazing! there are few games that i will go out of my way to collect the soundtracks for, but this one was definitely worth it. plus, pretty much all the voice actors for the game did voices for characters in pokemon (the american licensed animated series), which makes me giggle uproariously. | |

Nicely done, Pentegarn! I've had this game for years and still haven't tried it yet. I don't like time limit RPGs much, but with such a high review I guess it's time to try it out. |

I remember renting this when it came out and thinking it was different but not necessarily great or anything, I don't see why people try and hunt it down like it's Suikoden 2 or something. It's worth mentioning that the first in the series is really the only one worth playing though, the series kinda went downhill from here. |

10,000 Volt Ghost | Always wanted to check this one out. Wish I had more time in my days. | |

Fathom Zero | Valkyrie Profile was... too weird for me. It did flip RPG conventions on their heads, though. | |
