    Suikoden, Lunar, and Breath of Fire are all series that are better than FF and get overshadowed by FF.
    Ive only played the BoF series but they certainly cant compete with most of the FF titles.Ive passed BoF II, IV,and Im relatively far in V and I but none of them are as good as the FF's Ive played. All in all FF does have a high average quality.
    Breath of Fire III is the best one I've played, but I haven't played V. Also, BoF and FF are both inferior to Suikoden and Lunar.

    I love when random people go off on a point that doesn't make sense at all and then end off on an unrelated rant. Especially one they're wrong about.

    The only Suikoden game that's better than every Final Fantasy is II, now shush.

    You do realize that in Lunar SSSC, a game in one of the series you mentioned, the bosses level up with you as well?

    Kane: I'd agree with that. But then I'd also say that I and III are better than every FF except for FFT, and that IV is up there with the best FFs(with the exception of FFT, of course).

    Suikoden series, Breath of Fire series, Wild ARMs series, Tales series... that's all I can think of off the top of my head, but they're all as good if not better than Final Fantasy.

    i actually dont like many RPGs besides FF. i like breath of fire 1, but thats it for that series. i only like tales of symphonia, and i thought the chrono series was ok. other then that, im not a huge RPG fan.

    So glad you're not one of those people that like only Final Fantasy and consider themselves hardcore RPG fans...

    Games above FF

    Chrono
    Xeno
    Breath of Fire
    Tales of
    Lunar

    There are other single games out there also that beat it out like Super Mario RPG, Valkrye Profile and others.

    Disgaea and La puchelle by nippon ichi, found them second hand for £8 each. never had a better bargain.

    I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
    Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion,
    I watched seabeams glittering at Tanhauser Gate.
    All these moments will be lost, like tears in rain.
    Time to die.

    >>> I dare to say that Suikoden 1 and 2 are above some of the best FF titles.. but not FF9, that game is just too awesome..

    If we are talking about FF2, well any RPG is better than that..
