Complete RPG List for the PS2 - Updated 2017

[Howie6925]

* = no published strategy guide
King’s Field: The Ancient City*
*

I have the strategy guide for this game

[MightySlacker]

You can now officially add Wild Arms 4 to the list

what about Culdcept?

[lendelin]

Howie, thanks for the information, I appreciate it! I corrected the King's Field guide listing.

I added Wild Arms 4.

Does anyone know if Unlimited Saga got a guide?

[lendelin]

what about Culdcept?

Nah, it is more of a board/puzzle game with a RPG touch, I think.

[MightySlacker]

I posted this a little while ago, but what about Dynasty Tactics 1 and 2? I dont see how you could consider them different strat RPGs than say a front mission 4.

I still am wondering - is dark angel REALLY an rpg? EBgames had it listed as one awhile ago and a lot of people seemed to have gone off that but to anyone who has played the game is it REALLY an rpg and not just some action/adventure game?

[Lemmy Kilmister]

How 'bout the Dynasty Tactics games? They're both strategy RPGs, and damn good ones at that.

[Sylentwulf]

Grandia 3, and shin megami tensei lucifers call can be added.

[Oobgarm]

Grandia 3, and shin megami tensei lucifers call can be added.

Lucifer's Call was released in the US as SMT: Nocturne.

[hezeuschrist]

Tales of Legendia comes out in a week or so, and Grandia III comes out on valentines day. Suikoden V is also scheduled for this spring as well... I hope they don't jack that one like they did IV

And yes, Unlimited Saga got a guide.

EDIT: Holy crap, I knew spring was going to be worse than I thought.

Tales of Legendia - Feb. 7
Grandia III - Feb. 14
Drakengard 2 - Feb 14
MS Saga: A New Dawn - Feb 21
Shadow Hearts: From the New World - Mar. 7
Suikoden V - Mar 28
Kingdom Hearts II - Mar. 30
Atilier Iris: Eternal Mana 2 - Apr. 25 (That can't be right, the JP release is in May)

Then there is the ever looming Final Fantasy XII, Xenosaga III, Valkyrie Profile: Silmeria, and Phantasy Star Universe. And I thought I was catching up

[lendelin]

Updates: Grandia III and Tales of Legendia are added, and the guide status of Unlimited Saga was changed (thanks, hezeuschrist)

Yep, the RPGs for the PS2 are like mail: it keeps coming and coming with no end in sight, it could drive a sane man crazy. The PS2 will have the most extensive RPG library of all consoles.

Atilier Iris: Eternal Mana 2 - Apr. 25 (That can't be right, the JP release is in May)

Actually, I think the japanese release was last may - I'm almost certain its out. I've had the soundtrack for about 6 months now :-)

And did the 2 Dynasty Tactics games get added?

If someone knows if there is a published guide for MS Saga and for Steambot Chronicles, please post and let us know.

Ugh... I am not looking forward to cracking down on my PS2 collection.

And small point but it's Romancing SaGa with a capital G.

For my own personal list I included Culcept, ICO, and Shadow of the Colossus under borderline. But then maybe I just needed an excuse to have them. >.>

[tylerwillis]

Don't forget Metal Saga - came out at the same time as Atelier Iris 2.

[lendelin]

Don't forget Metal Saga - came out at the same time as Atelier Iris 2.

Done. Thanks guy. I also added Suikoden V. I think that's it for last month. 99 and counting... (I listed Metal Saga as not having received a guide...at least I couldn't find one or an anouncement for one)

[lendelin]

Ugh... I am not looking forward to cracking down on my PS2 collection.

That's why I started earliy. I have around 70 of them, hardly one which was released in the last year or so. I never buy them for more than $20.

This RPG library will be much more extensive than the one for the PS1....and around 70% of the games got a guide, too.

Thanks, I corrected it. I'm very sticklish when it comes to little things like that, so I really appreciate it.

We all make up excuses to buy more games. RIGHT??? To be a game fanatic is tough. People think it is fun and one long vacation, but we know it's not all smile and sunshine.

[PapaStu]

I was on top of PS2 RPG's (even though I wasn't playing them) for years... I've not bought one except Kingdom Hearts 2 in about a year and a half. I'm SO not looking forward to filling the gaps once i'm that solvent again to just buy games.
