    This is a really good question SInce Inever really thought of it myself I just wented by what is and will allways be best still

    Vagrant Story- The closet thing to Secret Of Mana and was the only other game that used this battle system besides Hybrid Heavan or Quest64.

    Alundra PSX series - Was the alterative to Y's and Zelda at the time. When it went 3d the game itself was still just as fun. It was just amazing to see this game in action.

    FF8- was a great improvment over FF7. The only reason this is better the fact after Midgar FF7 is pretty much meh. Also FF8 had only One Bahamut like it should be.

    FF7- brought RPG games to the modern era or at least industrial era and basically was just FF6 revamped. I was also impressed by the transformation of etc character.

    Personally I am not a PSX fan at all and the be RPG is not on the PSX. It is the Mother Series tied with Star Ocean/Tales Of Phantasia SNES. The PSX has alot of great games just not the gereatest and the only reason I picked Vagrant is the game reminds me of FF6+Secret Of Mana 3.

    Its always tough for me to decide if I like ff7 or ff9 better, however I think I really have decided that I like ff9 better just due to its highly medievil and fantasy setting

    1) Final fantasy 9
    2) Final Fantasy 7
    3) Final fantasy 8
    4) Xenogears
    5) Legend of Dragoon

    1. Suikoden
    2. Saga Frontier (my most played PSX RPG by far)
    3. Suikoden II (its better than the first, the original wins because of nostalgia and story, mainly. I love Gremio. I named my castle Gremio Castle, which actually made Gremio happy in the game)
    4. Lunar Silver Star Story Complete
    5. Legend of Legaia

    Honorable mention to FF Tactics and FF VII and VIII. Also, I think I would have put Grandia on my top five but I've yet to get around to playing it, yet.

    Here's a somewhat related question:

    Are there any even remotely "open ended" type RPGs for the original PlayStation? Games that are closer to Morrowind and Oblivion than Final Fantasy?
    Closest thing were probably the King's Field games as well as Shadow Tower, which I believe was also made by the same team. They're the closest thing you'd find to Morrowind on the PS1. They also all have the distinction of being terrible.


    5. Dragon Warrior VII - My favorite game in the entire series. Good long RPG with a ridiculous amount of optional side quests and hidden town & Dungeons to explore.
    4. Brigandine - Excellent strategy/RPG-ish game. Make sure to turn battle animation off though or the game will plod along at a wounded snail's pace
    3. Final Fantasy Tactics - Tactical RPG at it's finest. Skip the GBA one though.
    2. Suikoden II - Very good but plot tends to drag in some places
    1. Suikoden - Short but well paced, still the best in the series
