A childhood favorite, played it for hours as a kid. Sure, it's a shorter title as far as Playstation RPGs go, but it's a magical time. The fusion system is probably why I spent so much time on it, and is the highlight. Tameable monsters (called "minions") actually have their model and animations altered depending on what other monster you fuse with them - you can even re-fuse the hybrids with other hybrids! There's a touching story about love, duty and sacrifice. The unique tribal setting and music are incredibly memorable. The art direction of the game being headed by Studio Ghibli alum Katsuya Kondō make it a beautiful experience. It's well worth preserving for future generations just because of how truly unique a monster-battler it is.

The animated sequences between each new stage alone makes this game memorable. And I loved fusing the monsters I captured. No game was the same. I loved it as a teenager.

Even after all these years I still play this game from time to time on my childhood PS1. This is until this day the best fusion System a Game ever had. Better than any Pokemon or Shin Megami Tensei game, since it really morphes the two monsters together. The Graphics in Studio Ghibli Style was also amazing. (It also had great German Dubbing) I wish that this game would make it on GOG.

The epitome of my childhood, my first JRPG ever. Fully voiced dialogue, gameplay with an interesting mechanic that lets you mix the monsters you catch to mix looks and abilities if done properly. Pretty good story too. I paid $80 for a disc recently, once I finally found it. It was worth the nostalgia trip though. This game deserves recognition........but I'll keep dreaming.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.
