I have always been a huge fan of the RPG genre, so every time a new console or PC game came out, I was watching waiting for a new one. Playstation 1 when it first came out, did not have much in the way of RPGs (at first) and I had heard from a friend that there was one that launched either with the system or shortly thereafter called ^ you guess it Beyond the Beyond. Now my friend, and many reviewers afterwards shunned this game, it did not get great reviews let me tell you! However after trying it for a few minutes I immediately fell in love with it. The story was so-so, but that wasn't what sold it for me. The graphics was stunning for its time, it was like someone took Shining Force and improved the graphics and gave it a slightly more adult edge. Despite the naysayers and bad publicity that got unjustly slapped on this great classics name. In its way it laid the ground work for future games to build upon, like Fire Emblem etc, much like in the way it built off of games like Shining Force and Ogre Battle. So for me, this is a definite yes, I would love to revisit this game, if nothing else purely for the nostalgic factor.

Shin Megami Tensei
Shin Megami TenseiThe story follows a nameless protagonist who lives in near-future Tokyo. When a portal to the realm of demons is opened, United States officials order a nuclear attack on Tokyo. Transported with two other supporting characters thirty years into the future, the protagonist finds the Earth ruined by a demon invasion, which is now the stage for an escalating conflict between the Order of Messiah and the Ring of Gaea, conflicting cults who wish to bring about kingdoms for their respective patron deities (YHVH and Lucifer). The story is influenced by moral decisions the protagonist makes, aligning him either with the Order, the Ring of Gaea, or setting him up as an independent agent. The gameplay uses first-person navigation of dungeons and turn-based battles against demons. The player can recruit demons as allies by talking to them rather than fighting them, and two to three demons can be fused to create new demons.

Farland Story 2
Farland Story 2Farland Story 2 is an independent side-story to the Farland Story series (this game shouldn't be confused with Farland Story Denki: Arc Ou no Ensei, which is also known as "Farland Story 2"). The game is set in the same time line as the second and the third "mainstream" Farland Story games, 20 years after Arc has become a king. Peace has returned to the world, but on the continent of Ionia, an emperor is plotting an evil scheme. His son Riad refuses to accept the methods of his father, especially when he wants to use Serena, a girl he loves, for his plans of war and conquest. During a quarrel, Riad attacks the emperor's minister, and is forced to flee the castle together with Serena. The adventure of the runaway prince begins... Graphically and gameplay-wise, the game is similar to other Farland Story games, although its setting is generally more dark. The game consists of large strategic battles, during which you move your party over the battle location, attacking enemies physically when they are in range of your weapons, and casting healing and offensive magic. Like in other Farland Story games, the death of the main character (Riad in this case) means instant Game Over.

Pokémon Black and White are followed in 2012 by two sequels, Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, which are set two years after the events of Black and White. Black 2 and White 2 are the second and final paired versions of Generation V.
