Yeah, Square's all like "Hey buddy, that game'll sell over there y'know. Look, watch." And then Capcom's all like "Ooohhhh, alrighty. I can do that."

Interesting, I belive it as the style and themes of the game just don't have the squaresoft ring to it. I just never seen capcom mentioned in the first version. Not in the booklet, nor on the gameSquare just translated the game and published it in America. The game itself, like all the other games in the series, was developed by Capcom.I'm sure I am wrong though

And then Capcom serves up a notoriously bad translation for Breath of Fire II. Oops!Originally Posted by Vyk

Did anyone mention Zork yet?
Why not?
Best non-SE? Tales of Smphonia.
Because it's a prequal/sequal/AU to an existing non-SE series. Its like categorizing Disgaea and La Pucelle outside of Nippon Ichi's work because it was published by someone else. I just have issues with companies taking credit when they're only the publisher. Also, Xenogears could be given as much credit to EA as Square, since Square wasn't really interested in publishing it for us until EA lent them a hand on a few titles.

Leave some shards under the belly
Lay some grease inside my hand
It's a sentimental jury
And the makings of a good plan
I didn't think the BOF2 translation was that bad. some whiners go so far as to say it was not accurate, which is false. you know what's going on and you can understand stuff, unless you're dense. it's goofy at times, but who cares. at least it's not as bad as the first metal gear. the only thing bothersome to me were those big, stupid, monospace letters. I still thought it was better than the first game. And besides, if anyone who never played it and wants to, a romhack may be coming about which will supposively fix the alleged bad translation and the big stupid text. the page on it: http://bof2.blogspot.com/
Uh, Xenogears came a long time before Xenosaga. I don't quite get your logic.
So, are you saying I can classify Star Ocean 3 as a non-SE game? Because it's developed by tri-Ace and it's a sequel to a non-SE title.
I don't see how the time between them has any relevance. And Tri-Ace has such strong ties with Enix it's practically an in-house studio. But if they ever made a contract with some other publisher for future Star Ocean games you'd have a hard time lumping the games together with this logic :D So yeah. I dunno. Its just an opinion. But I think the games they make should be the only ones considered theirs. I realise they're almost as big on publishing as they are on developing, but I'd look more towards the ones they developed in-house to call their own.
What, you mean, totally smurfing awesome? Yeah, I have to agree. Britain stands with you, and whatnot. Tally ho.
Suikoden 1 & 2
Vandal Hearts I & II (Tactical, I know, but srsly these games are awesome.)
BoF III
Legend of Dragoon
Legend of Legaia (Not the best out there, but it has an interesting battle system and I really got into it.)
Jade Empire
The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (I've not played I or II, but they probably rock too. And IV is on the way, so leik, w00t and so forth.) (And yeah, it's stretching the term, but I honestly don't care. It is the awesome.)

So Vyk, if Namco never picked up the Xenogears crew, would you still not have considered Xenogears a Square game?
