Oh dear god no.

Thankfully I have already warned Ack and others about the horrors of that particular title.

Then...I'd like to suggest...Valkyrie Profile...

For PS1 and PSP.
Yeah I don't know about that one... The PS1 version is rare to the point that I'd basically consider it a PSP exclusive and not everyone has a PSP.

Something like Phantasy Star II would be perfect - available on Genesis, Saturn, GBA, Dreamcast, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3.

I like the idea of at least one Western RPG too - so many are available on GOG and other services these days.
It's fine if you emulate it. If you still want to buy it, you can by the PSP version really cheap. It's an important classic and not many people have played it...probably because the original version is so expensive :lol:

I'm down with Phantasy Star II, but I wonder if we should wait until Kycene finishes her translation of the remake?

Don't. It's horrible. Not in a funny or quirky way either, just straight up bad.

You mean the PS2 remake? Are there many folks out there jonesing to play it? I haven't heard much buzz about it in the States. I've been thinking about picking it up for some time, I can read the Japanese but still need to mod my PS2 Slim.

I think everyone at Phantasy Star Cave wants to play it.
If you have James Bond: Agent Under Fire, you can mod your PS2 Slim with a blank DVD and some household items.

If only I heard your voice ages ago when I was a young lad thinking it might be related to Secret of Mana / Evermore...

I thought emulating Saturn games were just fine now? And at any rate, there's no harm in picking something people don't have. Someone, somewhere, won't have an SNES or NES or Genesis or PS1 or whatever. I would have thought that most people here have a Saturn, and Nick still says modchips, so even the price wouldn't affect anything.

Speaking of the Saturn, s-video cables appear to be back in the store.

Also, I'm not sure how well it would work, but it might be a good idea to have two games running concurrently, or perhaps even staggered. Say RPG A lasts from January through February, and RPG B from February through March. So on March first RPG C is introduced and we're halfway through RPG B. Otherwise, concurrent ones might work to satisfy more people. Two months is a long time to keep a club active, assuming we'll have static time allotments.
