Genesis Rpgs

[diablo2]

now that the new version FGens32 has been released i will start playing genesis.
what are the best rpgs for it.
sorry
i didn't play video games untill n64 came out

Although the SNES is much better for RPG's IMHO, Phantasy Star is pretty cool.

 

[GPJosh]

I like Shining Force. B)

 

[Akuma no Houkon]

Its hard to say which are the best ones because there wasnt very many!

Some that I can remember are:
Sword of Vermillion
Shining Force 1 & 2
Phantasy Star 2 & 3 & 4
D&D Warriors Eternal Sun (kinda like Ultima)
Exile
Super Hydlide
Shining in the Darkness
Land Stalker

GemFire
Gauntlet 4
Populous 2



Although those last three are not RPG's in the common sense...

Landstalker... now that was a great game. Shining Force 1 was good. The sequel was better but both were fun to play. Shadowrun is kind of an RPG but I love it even though I dont know how to classify it Phantasy Star 4 was fantastic and rivals Final Fantasy 3 in my opinion. So many memories... wish I had a lot of free time to get reaquainted.

Don't forget Soleil (Zelda style clone) and Beyond Oasis (great action-rpg ) and Light Crusader.

Byes

Populous 2

Although those last three are not RPG's in the common sense...

populous is a real time strategy game

 

[diablo2]

thanks

The first three phantasy stars just were crap to me.... I played for 5 minutes then smashed a bat through the monitor... j/k

 

[diablo2]

yeah
i tried playing number 1 on my gp32 and they mos def suck
so i loaded 4 on it and it wont load
so as of right now im pissed
but i still love the emu
it is very good
all we need now is sound

 

[angrypants]

I loved beyond oasis(action rpg) and shining force 2(turn based tactical grid rpg). In my opinion those whhere the best foor the system. Shining force 2 really was amazing you could create a full army of charctors and the way they level up and look diffrnet was really cool too.

 

[diablo2]

cool
sounds like i need to try those

 

[NssOne]

Don't forget Soleil (Zelda style clone) and Beyond Oasis (great action-rpg ) and Light Crusader.

Byes

Crusader of Centy as well.

 

[RomHacker316]

I didnt really like the first 3 phantasy star games. #2 was just boring after ten minutes, #3 took forever to walk around in, but #4 was just right for making a fantastic RPG. The music in it is some of the best for the Genesis.

 

[diablo2]

god i wish that game ran on gp32!

 

[ralp99]

Master of Monsters is supposed to be pretty cool actually (worst..title screen.. ever!!) i am not sure how much RPG it is and how much strategy game, but I have always wanted to check it out...

 

[coolgpguy]

i dont have my gp32 right now so does this emu support save states because wats the point of an rpg w/o saving

 

[Tobriand]

To my knowledge, Crusaders of Centy and Soleil are the same game, just European/US nams for it. Same with Beyond Oasis and Story of Thor.

There's a fair few RPGs available for the genesis, but all but about 12 of them are in Japanse. Have a look down the list of screenshots at www.vgmuseum.com to search for the things (or for any game for that matter). No roms - but screenies are very useful when deciding from a stance of ignorance entire what to play.

Sorry, I'm a damn American, I only know the American names. Yeah, Crusader of Centy, Soleil, and Ragnacenty are all the same game.
