    This is always tough because it's hard for me to tell what people do and do not know about. Do people know of Radiant Historia? That's a great game.

    As far as Non-FF or SMT RPG's go I think it's one of the more popular ones to come along in recent years.

I didn't play New World. I thought Karen was just awesome in the second game though! Her and Yuri were such a good pair to watch befriend one another. (Sorry, Alice, you were cool too.) By far, my favorite thing was to curl up and read the monster indexes for all the baddies. So much depth!

    Any of the Shin Megami Tensei games, but that's definitely improving!

    Disgaea - the ANY of them! I mean, I thought the name would be more common when Disgaea showed up on PC, but I haven't heard the name come up any more frequently.

    I remember really, really liking the Wild Arms series when I was younger, but I haven't touched those in ages so I don't know if they held up over time.

    Have you ever heard about the game "Summer Carnival '92: Recca" for the Famicom?
    Probably not, since it was originally only released in Japan.
    Anyway, this game is super-intense for an 8-bit game, there are enemies everywhere and even the first stage is a major test of your reflexes.
    Here is a video demonstration of the gameplay in this game - prepared to be overwhelmed:



    Also, just to make sense of the name:
    "Summer Carnival '92" refers to a gaming competition that was held in 1992, and "Recca" is the Japanese word for "conflagration" or "raging fire", which sums up this whole game pretty well.

    I would have played all the shadow hearts games if my PS2 didn't constantly lock up trying to play the pirated game i have.

    i have played all but the most recent disgaea games, and i am actually playing through WA alter code f these days, which is the PS2 remake of the first game.
