My mom bought Legaia for my sister and I when I was only 8 or 9. I remember absolutely loving it, but getting destroyed in the early game at Drake Castle. It was the first game like it that I had played and had no clue what I was doing. Years later I revisited it and played it through to the end. The characters and monsters you see along the way make it unique and fun. I continue playing it every year on an emulator on my phone and laptop. It is a game that I would love to see in modern day graphics. What a great game.
My parents got me this game when I was around 8 or so and from the moment I put it in my PlayStation I was captivated. It was unlike anything I had ever seen or experienced at the time. I even remember setting my alarm at 3 in the morning so I could get extra play time before school. This game is the origin to my journey into JRPGs and my interest in Japan. Without this game I never would’ve aspired to travel and work there and subsequently travel the world. I recently beat it again and still think it holds up well. Would LOVE a remake! I still have the original discs and will never sell them. This game is a GEM and one of my favorites of all time!

Bought the game because the Kid in me Loved Rpgs and it had multiple disc so I assumed it would be great. One of the best turn based rpg's I've ever played loved every moment of it.
Was lended this game by a friend for a few days and loved the battle system so much I had to go and rent it from Blockbusters! The system was unique and hasn't been replicated since, it's a shame the creator died because another game is yearned for.

Bought a PS1 off of a classmate that was selling it for w33d money, and this was one of the two games that he gave me for it. This was back in 2000, and to this day it remains my favourite video game of all time, and deserves a full remake.
One of the "golden" entries in the golden era of RPGs. Also quite possibly one of the most fun I had playing an RPG back then. To stand out amongst the other titans was a great accomplishment for this little game. The combat is by far the greatest appeal of Legaia for me, the incredible world-building and settings. A perfect combination of things that made kid me enthralled with every little detail. Of all the games of the era this one is most memorable for some reason. The combat, the music, characters, environments. Another classic I sincerely hope gets preserved and maybe remastered!
My mom and dad used to play it. Not that often, but often enough for me get hooked on it's awesome art style and mechanics. At around the age of 8 or so I started playing myself, but I didn't know a word of English so it was challenging. I got stuck at the Dr. Usha research center because i didnt understand the fact i had to input the secret code in the pipe 😭 couple of years later i finally understood and could finish the whole game and cried at the end
This was a classic I had to chase down. I first played it when my oldest brother was renting it from a blockbuster. Got to the end of the first village's story and then we were done visiting that night. From there it was going to local game stores for months until I finally found a copy. And this became a favorite. A phenomenal story. Extremely well designed. And a game that truly deserves permanent status as an archived classic. I still have the PS1 game CIB. Sadly, it's too old and skips. So, it's just for the memories now. I will play it, stream it, and just keep the nostalgia alive. [A graphics patch wouldn't hurt. But I will take what I can get.]

Finding this game and its Prima guide book in a bin at a store my mom was shopping at when I was just a kid. It started a lifelong love of RPGs of all sorts that persists to this day. Hell, I've designed and published RPG material now and I've got more WIP. This game was so fun, so uniquely engaging, and amazingly still holds up nearly 3 decades later.

Harvest Moon: Back to Nature
Harvest Moon: Back to NatureNatsume's farm simulation series makes its debut on the PlayStation with Harvest Moon: Back to Nature. Starting out with a few rudimentary implements and very little money, you begin the arduous task of reviving your grandfather's farm and thereby claiming your place as its rightful heir. Players are given three years to achieve this goal. A year consists of four seasons, each of which lasts 30 days. Different crops can be planted each season, but before the seeds can be planted, the land must be cleared and then the soil tilled. Seeds must also be watered until the fruit or vegetable matures. Once the crops are ready for harvest, they can be placed in a shipping bin where they'll be collected and paid for. In addition to farming, players will interact with local villagers and partake in seasonal events such as the Tomato Festival and Fireworks Display. As more money is earned, players can expand their farm and begin to raise livestock such as chickens and cows.

Star Ocean: Second Evolution
Star Ocean: Second EvolutionThe Second Story's gameplay is broadly similar to that of most RPGs. The player goes from town to town and dungeon to dungeon, following the central story and occasionally branching off to perform side quests. Characters gain Experience Points from battle and level up as a result, becoming gradually stronger as time passes and more battles are fought. Battles are much more action-oriented: they take place in real time, during which the player has manual control over their character, as opposed to choosing options from a menu. Battles take place on a broad battlefield, over which the player's character can move without limit, allowing them to trade blows face-to-face with the enemy or circle around for a flanking attack. The other party members (up to 3 others) are controlled by the game's AI; the player may change an ally's Strategy to one of six different pre-determined options (ranging from "Spread out and attack" to "Save your Magic Points" to "Stand Still and Don't Do Anything").
