Not to be cheesy, but I would encourage everyone to read Black_Tiger's post and use it as a guide.

I never finished Neo Metal Fantasy, for example, and it is calling me. However, it might be more fun to tackle it after the group completes a more straightforward game.

:)



I'm all for taking on Anearth Fantasy Stories! It looks absolutely stunning.

Agreed. I put my vote in Anearth.

The first Xanadu is so far above and beyond anything I have played that it take's 1st place.

Followed by Xanadu 2

Gulliver Boy and Blood Gear.

These are the games that brought me around to the PC Engine.

Blood Gear is awesome. I stopped playing it for some reason.

I voted Xanadu, but I'd be down for any of 'em really.

OK, so when are we going to do this? I'm ready to pull the trigger on anything, but I'm going to mention something about Neo Metal Fantasy.

Just because the fight menus are icon based, don't let that sway you too much. If that's what it gets to get you to play it, then cool, that's all that matters. You need to realize though that after about an hour into any RPG, English, Japanese, or otherwise, you don't actually read that shit anyway. Its all reflex and such. 25 hours into the thing that isn't going to help you one bit and you'll be on autopilot with any game.

Regarding Kabuki Den: While this game is hella heavy on the kanji, its also one of the most well documented and understood JRPGs on PCE. Hell, I'm pretty sure if you get stuck on ANYTHING in the game Black Tiger can get you through it all by himself, never mind the other people here.

So anyway, I want to start this soon.

Feasably, I think it should start tomorrow.  Tuesday with nothing better to do, plus we can set aside a clear month and do another in March if it's popular.

Not sure how to resolve a tie-break though - another poll with just the two winners?

The idea is, we all pick a JRPG and play through it together, like a book club

Here's the original thread, this one was set up for a poll of what game to play.
