I have recently been listening to a podcast called Retro RPG Podcast and they do a series called “Is it worth it?” Where they take a retro RPG, replay it, and talk about if they think it’s worth the going rate via e-bay or used game stores. If you aren’t aware, some of these retro games are going for quite a bit of money. For example, pretty much any Square RPG for the PS1 goes for $40-$50. The most rare it seems is a sealed-in box copy of Chrono Trigger, which I found on e-bay for $600 (not a typo).
Anyways, what’s your favorite RPG(s)?
My favorite game ever is Chrono Cross for the PS1.
Followed closely, in no particular order:
Secret of Mana (SNES)
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)
World of Warcraft (PC) - I stopped playing at level 70, so I know nothing about the current version.
Zelda: The Ocarina of Time
I also really enjoyed Final Fantasy 7 and X, but they are a step below the above.
Also, I played some Advanced Dungeons and Dragons in high school. It’s a lot of fun.
I’ve never actually played Chrono Trigger or Earthbound, which I would like to change, but they are hard to find, and I don’t like buying games off of eBay.
