Genso Suikoden gets US trademark

[kupomogli]

New game or Suikoden 1 and 2 PSP port?

I already own both Suikoden 1 and 2(which are also on my PSP as eboot files) but I'd buy them again for the PSP, this would also put another two amazing games regardless of the fact that they're ports on the system. One thing I don't mind about ports over rereleases, is that they won't reduce the cost of those that I own for the original system(damn you Atlus for repeatedly rereleasing Disgaea on PS2 to the point that I now own a worthless shitty game. wasn't porting it to 362 different systems enough?)

I also wouldn't mind seeing a PS360 Suikoden. Suikoden 3 definitely hit the mark in terms of depth to a JRPG. The game literally had everything a Suikoden fan would want and it actually expanded on the series. Suikoden 3 receiving mixed reviews is possibly why we received the crap that is Suikoden 4 and then Suikoden 5 which was, while decent, was clearly given enough work only to make the game passable.

Suikoden 1 and 2 or a Suikoden that is as good as 3 or atleast close to as good as 3(or both.)

No, Suikoden creator Yoshitaka Murayama's departure from Konami is the reason why Suikoden IV and V are different from previous games. It's also why Suikoden III mostly sucked; Murayama left during the game's development.

Suikoden III is mediocre and was the start of the entire franchise's downfall. It has some appealing supporting characters, but the leads are boring, the battles are awkward, the dungeon designs are bland, the graphics are stiff, and the pacing is completely terrible. Suikoden IV fixed some of III's problems and, unfortunately, introduced a bunch of new ones.

And then there's Suikoden V. It's much better than III or IV, yet the first 15 hours are essentially a huge, sluggish prologue, and that takes a lot of out of the game.

At this point, the Suikoden series has lost me. I'll always like the first two games, but I didn't even bother checking out Suikoden Tierkreis. Suikoden I and II stood apart from other JRPGs by embracing themes more political and realistic than the usual cliches, but the series dulled that edge a while ago.

But you know what's a good game? Disgaea. That sure is a good game. I think just about everybody likes it.

Word.

I've personally called him out on his stupid repeated bashing of Disgaea at least twice and now I'm glad someone else has as well.

So yeah WORD

As for the suikoden games I've played and beaten 1,2,4,5 and tactics. I have yet to play the latest game but own it, never complete 3 because of a glitch that occured in two different copies

[heybtbm]

I played the original Suikoden when it came out and loved it. At the time, there weren't many RPG's out for the Playstation, so who knows if that had something to do with it. Suikoden 2 I never picked up. Suikoden 3, 4, 5, and Tactics I bought, but haven't played any of them. They're all still sitting on the shelf sealed.

That being said, if this ends up being the Suikoden 1/2 combo that Japan got a few years ago, I'll still pick it up. I may not get around to playing it for a few years...but I'll pick it up

BTW: Disgaea is awesome.

[carlcarlson]

Suikoden 1/2 combo? Yes please. I've got 1 but can't drop the money on 2. I've started the ROM a few times but always stopped after about an hour because I prefer to play the real thing. I really dug that hour though.

And what's this? A kupo post that includes a Disgaea bash?

[Rickstilwell1]

Maybe it means Suikoden II will be available for download on PSN. If that is done, it can be played on PSP or PS3 and you can use your old save files if you still have them.

I hope that's what it is. On www.suikosource.com a link shows that the makers of the series expressed interest in letting Sony upload Suikoden II to PSN like they did with the first one.

It's under Suikoden Team Q&A

EDIT: Maybe not. The source's post updated and said it is believed to be a PS3 & 360 game.
