I don't know about that. Not being able to use the classic controller spelled epic fail to me. Besides, there's also Tales of Graces or the Wii version of Phantom Brave (and also Oboro Muramasa if that counts to you) as candidates for best rpg. Also, I hear sakura taisen's out now. I wouldn't know, my wii is japanese so I can't play it.kyosai7 said:
Well, to my knowledge, Tales of Graces isn't available in USA yet, I've never played Sakura Taisen, as it looks too much to a dating sim to me... Oboro Muramasa is Muramasa: The Demon Blade, right? Can't say I've played it either, as I'm waiting for a price drop, but isn't that mroe of a sidescroller than an RPG? The only RPGs I've played on Wii are Dawn of the New World, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, and Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga. I didn't mind the lack of CC support, as I don't recall motion use being used often...R1CK_D0M said:
Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers, has, IIRC, been hailed as one of the best hack-n-slash titles on Wii, with very responsive controls, with nice graphics and a nice selection of characters, totaling 4, with each having 2 very different styles of fighting. I'll happily take it over Madworld atm. The absolute lowest score by GameFAQs user reviews is 5, topping out at 8. Also doesn't hurt that it came out for about $30 brand new upon launch. Also, I admit not knowing what PHantom Bave is, I'm Wikipedia-ing now.R1CK_D0M said:
Tell me about it, making money was a pain, and it didn't help that everything in the game was so damn expensive.Sakurazaki1023 said:Good, I wasn't the only person who considers that piece of shit to be the worst they have ever played...Gigaguy64 said:Its kinda old but LUNARRAGON SONG
Quite possibility one of the worst games i have ever played.
i bought it...then went back a couple of days later and sold it.\
i only got about $3 for it but i didn't care, i just wanted to get rid of it.
The combat is the worst I've ever seen in an RPG, the leveling system was horrible, the plot was incredibly convoluted, every attempt to make money was an annoying collection quest, and characters would drop in and out of your party every five minutes and take all of their equipment with them.
Bottom line,
NEVER BUY LUNAR
even the lowest form of healing Items, Gum, cost several missions worth of money.
As for the characters..interesting designs but absolutely nothing to them.
Its either attack, of if you can, use your ONE special skill.
(only the pink haired chick and the green haired girl could learn more than one skill)
The main character could only attack!
That's it!
I heard he was supposed to learn some powerful skills later on but i didnt keep the game for very long.
It actually came out not to long after the first DS came out.Alpha1089 said:
The creator(i believe it was him) of Lunar said not choosing a target would make the combat smoother...yea.
It only made it worse as your character would proceed to focus on one enemy...then stop and attack another.
Another hit or two would of taken it out but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
It made every fight, especially boss fight with more than one opponent really frustrating.
It got even worse when the opponents could heal each other...
Well, I suppose he has a point. It would have been smoother without the extra second or so it takes to select an enemy. I don't really understand why you would need smoothness in a turn based battle though. It's not as if the enemy will attack you while you decide to use attack or special skill.Gigaguy64 said:
Evidently I'm far too tired to be snide or sarcastic at the moment.Gigaguy64 said:
To clarify, I find turn-based games to be awesome. What I was trying to say was that 'smoothness' is entirely pointless in the battle system of a turn-based game. Removing the ability to choose which enemy to attack and relegating the characters to wannabe heroes (seriously, only one attack and one special skill?) makes a game suck.
Hehe sorry.Alpha1089 said:
Im not good with online sarcasm.
and yep, the skill count was low.
the main hero could only attack but, his attack did have 3 hit to it.
The main healer did learn more than one skill but there wasn't very many and you didnt heve her long enough to make use of them.
Two other characters could attack and had one special skill but that was it they couldent learn any more.
No one should ever buy any game that is on this list.

Although while looking at this list, I will admit that even though Action 52 had absolutely no good games in thier bundle, at least Cheetahmen 2 had a very good theme song despite the gameplay being a load of crap. Here's the song if anyone wants to listen to it.

anything is fun relative to ANY final fantasy. the only people who like the games play it because it's anime, and will hate you if you say it is a horrible game (which it is)Monkeyman8 said:oh come on, Dikatana was actually relatively fun. Then again anythings fun relative to FF13.(which should be on the list, hint hint)Hazy said:Daikatana.
BEGONE, SATAN!
Maybe it's some form of super-advanced social commentary on the current state of the world where manly men (the hero) are turning into overly aggressive savages that only know how to do one thing good; beat shit up?Gigaguy64 said:
/sarcasm
All in all, that game sounds incredibly bad.
How can a game called 'White Men Can't Jump' be bad? The sheer awesome inherent in the name alone transcends any bad qualities the game may have.Polarix said:
I looked it up on wikipedia to see how bad it was received. Holy crap one of the reviewers described its battle system as "comfortably the worst in 20 years of RPGs".Gigaguy64 said:
