  • All games are not RPG

  • why do you only have JRPG:s on this list? Fallout 2 and planescape torment woud totally deserve a spot

  • How did dragon age origins not even make it anywhere on this list?

  • Funny, yet logical and symbolic, how 49 of these games are not from a current gen console. Not including the DS title.

  • FF10 is now better than FF7......worst list ever. I normaly do not comment on these lists because of personal taste but you can not have FF7 lower on the list than FF10 LMAO. Top 5 in no real order are.

    A) FF7

    B)FF6(3 US)

    C) Chrono Trigger

    D)Lunar Silver Star Story

    E) Secret of Mana

  • @Dang065 Have you just not played FF3 (6 in Japan) or something? What's wrong with you man!?

  • @flips73182  just pointing out my #6 is FFVI

  • 25 was a Super Famicom cart

  • kay, I saw Finalhrono Fantasy VI, Chrono trigger, Final Fantasy IV, Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2, and Lufia 2. Im happy. Final Fantasy VII, in any list of awesome RPGS is expected, and nescescary, so I kinda new that was going to be there.

  • @npthedarkside27

    Kingdom Hearts isn't an RPG though. 

  • @Zell1995 ...um...Why would you say that? It has every aspect a RPG needs, and a couple more, although they are unnesecary. anyways, Im curious as to why you dont believe Kingdom Hearts is an RPG.

  • @npthedarkside27

    Not really, its more of an action hack and slash with barely any RPG elements.

  • @Zell1995 ah...Yeah, I agree with that now, after replaying it.

  • MY top 10 snes: 1 Super Mario RPG 2 Chrono Trigger 3 Earthbound 4 Zelda, A Link to the Past 5 Final Fantasy II 6 Illusion of Gaia 7 Final Fantasy III 8 Actraiser 9 Secret of Mana 10 Secret of Evermore
  • 5. Arcanum of Steamwork and Magick Obscura (play it)

    4. Baldur's Gate

    3. Neverwinter Nights

    2. Baldur's Gate II

    1. Planescape: Torment (Greatest story evar)

  • Where's Fallout 1 and 2? You faggot. 

  • @Zell1995 no offense but when I played those I thought they sucked and were very boring.

  • @64starkirby

    You must be a big JRPG fanbitch.

  • @Zell1995 or it just wasn't for him. putting those two games on untouchable pedestals is dumb, period.

  • @Zell1995 Well abviously I am not because I have no clue what JRPG means, but Fallout 3 and on were MUCH better than the 1st 2. The 1st 2 just sucked very bad.

  • @64starkirby

    Ha, ha, you've never played them.

  • @Zell1995 Dude, you're intolorented and a filthy vermin, You shoudn't be praising games on a video that does NOT include them =/ you moron, anyway what's wrong with JRPG? It's much better than the games you play you sadistic faggit.

  • @blackheartedinferno1

    Intolerented isn't a word, and you don't know me enough to say that. The main reason why I posted on this video was from a friend mentioning how it included only a few good RPG's, and I was curious if the person ever played any RPG's outside of Japan.

  • @Zell1995

    Someone with 1995 in their name suggests they were born after half of these games even touched a shelf and probably still hasnt played most of them over a decade later.

    What would you know about JRPGs that dont get released outside of japan? To be honest, theres no point in playing them if you cant understand whats going on....

    Your arguement void.

  • @hungoversundays

    Yes, I'm 17 years old, you're implying that I can't play games past my age, which is incredibly bias even beyond my statements. More than half of these JRPGs have had large, or small releases in NA, or EUR. I'm not denying the fact that JRPGs are good, but this is obviously a biased list.

  • @Zell1995 He says you ARE 17 he mentioned NOTHING about you not playing games past your age, it is not biased. So once more. You're arguement is nulled.

  • @blackheartedinferno1

    He said "someone with 1995 in their name suggests they were born after half of these games eve touched a shelf, and probably still hasn't played most of them over a decade later." Are you really that daft, or are you playing around with me? It's hard to tell. Also you're not getting any more style, or cool points by saying my argument is nulled, or it's invalid. That shit is so childish it's not even funny.

  • Awesome top 5!

  • wow, thats pretty awesome that you've been able to play all those RPG's --- It seems like most of the RPG's that I've actually played are in that list! ---I'm happy Mario RPG is number 5 - that is one of my favorite (the first one I've played too.) ---

  • i guess you never played breath of fire 3? number one on my list

  • Accurate list!

  • The Legend of Zelda are really more action adventure games but aside from that, pretty good list.

  • WHY NO DRAGON AGE ORIGINS!!?!!?

  • MY TOP 5

    5:Paper Mario

    4:Chrono Trigger

    3:Pokemon Crystal

    2:Golden sun:The Lost Age

    1:Golden sun 1

  • my top five

    1 - FF7

    2 - Xenogears

    3 - Star Ocean: The Second Story

    4 - Xenosaga 3

    5 - Final Fantasy Tatics

  • aaaammmmmmgggggg Skies of Arcadia..... nostalgia atttackkk!!!!!

  • zelda isnt a rpg

  • I play only 30% of this RPGs and best i play is FF7 i don't even play RPGs much but FF7 is best game i ever play Crono Trigger is coll but FF7 is legendary classic in game industry

  • You need to rename this video "50 games I think are good" because you are pissing off alot of fanboys.

  • As much as I love Zelda games... TO DEATH! The only one that's even close to an RPG is the second one, and good as it is, it's still the worst of the series.

  • This is a great list. I would rearrange some titles and switch out a few, but overall I agree that these games belong amongst the greatest of RPGs.

    I like that you have Alundra and Breath of Fire on the list. If you havn't tried the other Breath of Fire games, you should. They are all great :)

    It is correct that the Zelda games are generally not considered RPGs, but they are still so good that they could be on any list... no matter the genre ;)

  • zelda isnt an rpg

  • @tylermrogers @tylermrogers A role-playing game (RPG) is a game in which players assume the roles of characters in a fictional setting (Childhood games such as cops and robbers or acting in a play or movie is not the same as an "RPG"). Players take responsibility for acting out these roles within a narrative, either through literal acting. It is an extract from wikipedia so acording to that zelda is an rpg. next time if you want to shin with a briliant comment plz do some reserch

  • @Chewie260 lol dude zelda isnt an rpg it has no rpg mechanics at all. yes u do a role but other rpgs usually have other things like leveling, changing weapons, armor, etc. zelda has none of this. except you can find different weapons but there not so damage based. im a hella hardcore rpg fan and final fantasy and zelda are like total opposites. so stop trying to make me look like an ass

  • console RPGs are full of shit. Planescape Torment, Baldur's Gate, Fallout 1 and 2 beat every game in this list put together. And if you put zelda as a RPG, why not put Deus Ex?

  • @odyssey20011

    No.

  • @odyssey20011 you sound like a straight pc gamer with no real opinion on consoles but i agree on the deus ex debate

  • Captain Obvious is obvious today

  • where is final fantasy 8?

  • @thosha2k AFTER 7 BUT BEFORE 9

  • Jap rpgs are always better, just saiyan.

  • @pixiri21 keep livin in the 90's, just SUPER SAIYAN

  • @renge9909 Foreverintheninetys *tear in eye*

  • Wheres oblivion?

  • @jtbrown17

    oblivion sucks

  • What about elder scrolls

  • Did he seriously put Arc the Lad Twilight of Spirits at No. 6?

  • too many jap games

  • valkrie leneth profile. i might not have spelled it right starts of ok and then is so good

  • what music is this? i recognize it and it gives me chills

  • @toyota420xp its from final fantasy x

  • skies of arcadia is so good

  • FABLE! should have been on the list

  • nice list of games though a bit off on some of the preferred classics but nice list nonetheless- i have all the games except for the dreamcast games-

  • How can Lunar be in such a low spot....Fail...epicly. Also another note..suikoden should all be top 10...cept IV because that was halfassed...

  • nice job on actraiser not many know it

  • zelda is not a rpg

  • great list,

    since you asked on the video,

    I could never go wrong with the series of,

    "Lunar", "Chrono", "Final Fantasy", "Star Ocean" and "Tales of"

    All contain the best games I've played,

    I could also mention Grandia and Suikoden series.

    Thanks for the list

  • wtf? you are clearly biased. correct me if im wrong, but fallout 3 is the only western rpg on the list. Fallout 3 isn't the only great western rpg, what about oblivion, morrowind, mass effect, fable, and fable 2? and if you liked super mario rpg, then why isn't paper mario on it? Im guessin so you could make room for more square, enix, or square enix games lol.

  • FF10 over FF7?????????????? NOOOOOO WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY FF10 is the worst FF ever!

  • this that and the real rpg games ever and the sound and wonderful!

  • SKYRIM

  • What is the name of the soundtrack? ofc after FF7 sound

  • Only the first Breath of Fire listed? For shame.

  • best rpg game should be star ocean 2

  • zelda is an action RPG so it's ok here

    But shenmue . . . . well it's really a great game but not a RPG

  • i agree chrono trigger is numero uno

  • yeah! crono trigger!

  • The Legend of Zelda is an action-adventure game WITH RPG elements

  • my top 5 would be,

    5-shin megami tensei devil survivor

    4-the legend of zelda ocarina of time

    3-kingdom hearts 2

    2-the world ends with you

    1-final fantasy 7

    and the extra shin megami tensei persona 3

  • Dragon quest VIII 48th ?! Are you on drugs sir

  • Twewy?

  • Fucker FinalFantasy 7 was the best it should at least be at the top 5!!!!

  • why did i give away my ps2 to my unappreciative ex . . .

  • No Dragon Quest on any rpg list=fail

  • i would add shining force 2 and legend of legaia to this list

    totally underrated games

  • wild arms 2 and rogue galaxy are both in here, that means this is good because they are not well known but they are amazing, they should be in the top 10 tho for sure

  • 1. Oblivion

    2. Final Fantasy VIII

    3. Legend of Dragoon

    4. Final Fantasy VII

    5. Suikoden III

  • @samuelyork93 1. Skyrim....oh yes.

  • @yourGODLYhero no... just no

  • Lol someone said crisis core, that game sucked

  • Nice

  • Wow, I was surprised to see Suikoden III on this list. I haven't played it but I have played Suikoden V and I enjoyed it a lot. Is there any reason III made your list and not V?

  • 1 zelda not a rpg

    2 missing ff8

    3 no elder scroll

    4 xenosaga suckkkkkssssssssssss

    5 u got all wrong

  • 1. Grandia (the first one)

    2. Secret of Mana

    3. Elder Scrolls Morrowind

    4. Brave Fencer Musashi (shut up i really liked it)

    5. Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos

  • Secret of Mana is only 44? o.O

    And wait... what's with: Castlevania Symphonia of the Night, Mystic Quest (/Final Fantasy Adventures or just Seiken Densetsu) and (!) Secret of Evermore???

    Also if you count Zelda, what about then with Links Awakening or the "Oracle of" games - they were definately better than Ocarina of Time (and maybe even Windwaker and Twilight Princess or at least at the same level)

  • 1. Act raiser is not an rpg its an action simulation game

    2. to consider any zelda game other than zelda 2 is complete idiocy

    3. You should play persona its a very decent rpg

  • @TaigaXAzunyanX I ment to consider a zelda game to be an rpg I am one of the biggest fans of Zelda since its my favorite game of all time

  • I see why this video has so many dislikes , u got some of best ones way too low

  • As long as you put chrono trigger as number 1, you can do whatever with the rest of them. great alignment*

  • You can't compare games like FallOut3 and Secret Of Mana for exemple... it's a nonsense !

    You have to make several ranking !

    All this games have been really good games... but is just a question of date !

    What about Dungeon Master ? It probably been the best RPG from 1987 to 1989....

  • Breath of Fire better than FFT? Chronocross? ShadowHearts and Valyrie Profile in the top 20? Atleast Earthbound made your top 10...

  • @VendettaCrypt

    To Zanarkand (orchestrated version) from FF X

  • Good list! My top 5 (in no order) are...

    *Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones

    *Dragon Quest VIII: The Journey of the Cursed King

    *Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

    *Final Fantasy VI

    *Earthbound

  • Pokemon should have been in at least the top ten, and where is Mother 3, even if it wasn't released in America I think it should have been on this list.

  • haha still i own my ps1 & all of my games :)) but i cannot forget The RPG's i most fave off

  • Zelda is not an RPG. Check the game's wikipedia and any video game website's description of the genre. Zelda is not defined by its roleplaying, its defined by its action-adventure elements. That is the difference.

  • @Lochsabre technically, zelda II the adventures of link could be classified as an action rpg

  • @Taterzz We all acknowledge that game, but not the others hes chosen in this video.

  • @Lochsabre well actually zelda 2 was classified as a rpg but yes the other zeldas are not rpgs

  • @Lochsabre

    Yeah even on wikipedia you can read "Even it's an Action Adventure you actually have to take Zelda as an RPG" or something

  • @Lochsabre RPGs have been rated much different 20 year ago even monkey island was partly considered rpg because of certain elements.

  • @Lochsabre naaa zelda is an rpg, wikipedia sucks man,and those sites are based on wikipeadia XD, it's an rpg it got all the elements of an rpg mate

  • @deathofangel789 You didn't read my comment properly. I said the game is not defined by its RPG elements, whether there are elements or not. Is Fallout 3 a First-Person-Shooter? Is Rage an RPG?

    Btw the franchise does not contain every RPG element like you said.The absolute backbone of an RPG is levelling the fuck up and I think we can agree on that. Link hasn't done that since Zelda II, about 20 years ago. Its because of levels that Dark Souls is labelled as an RPG, despite playing like Zelda.

  • @deathofangel789

    it isnt an rpg you idiot. its an action adventure game

  • @XboxLikeWater stop serchignon wikipedia mate =D, it has all the elments of an rpg =D

  • @deathofangel789

    the only people who think wikipedia isnt accurate are people who are new to the internet or just stupid. zelda doesnt have a level up system, a party system, what you do doesnt effect the outcome of the game, and it isnt open world.

  • @XboxLikeWater amm yes does it has an open world, and not all rpgs need a party system or level system, just look fable =D, don't be stupid and wikipedia is for the beginers on the internet, don't be a bunch of noobs =D

  • @deathofangel789

    You're right that Wikipedia is hardly an authority on RPG... but a game needs to have more than an open world to be an RPG.

  • @dunnono00 oh god, it has all the elements of an rpg

  • @deathofangel789 Elements of a RPG: Leveling up, Stats defining attack, defense, speed and such, and a multitude of weaponry or armor that alters these stats in either increasing or decreasing them. Legend of Zelda ocarina of time or link to past or fucking just ZELDA has none of these elements at all, and although gain new items such as stronger swords or bows these do not effect any form of stats at all, furthermore levels do not even exist in the game. I will go as far to say that Legend of-

  • @deathofangel789 Zelda 2 is a RPG for includes leveling up and some form of stats system.

  • @XboxLikeWater

    Wikipedia is a user maintained site. That means everyday people like me and you can edit it. There WILL be inaccuracies in such a system. Hell, it was an old meme to say "IT'S ON WIKIPEDIA, IT MUST BE TRUE" or something like that. It's more like the reverse of what you say, kids and computer illiterates probably think Wikipedia is law.

  • 1) Chrono Trigger

    2) Chrono Cross

    3) Secret of Mana

    4) FFVI

    5) Breath of Fire 3

  • come si chiama quel gioco che puoi essere uno squalo un gorilla ecc...che distruggi i palazzi? rispondete pls

  • Where is chronno cross??

  • @Dryzoul its over there I saw it thougth its low on the list

  • My no.1 is The Elderscrolls IV Oblivion

  • dragon quest 8 should be way higher, its better than ffx and kingdom hearts, and wheres ff9, persona? does any1 else think the 3d zeldas are debateable to be classed as rpg? they more action,adventure imo

  • 5. Diablo II

    4. Elder Scrolls III Morrowind

    3. Dragon Age II

    2. Final Fantasy 13

    1. Final Fantasy 8 (no contest, best game ever made)

  • I disliked this video cause you didn't put Thousand arms =(.. FAIL!!!... I loved that game ..

  • what no golden sun D:? that was like a good rpg game too D:

  • 1. Suikoden Series

    2. Kingdome Hearts Series

    3. Persona 4

    4. Digital Devil Saga Series

    5. FF 3-7-8-9-10-12

  • Fallout 3 should not be the only western RPG up there. Where is Knights of the Old Republic?

  • Whers oblivion

    

  • No chrono cross, it beat all the ff for me, and suikoden 5 was better than 3, move all the ff and Zelda to the back and take the pokemon game off, digimon world 2 was way better, and no shining force? you should of put my top 50, b/c what really decides the top 50 are the sales, maybe not now since you can't get used games in there, but overall better than I expected.

  • @ultraveburas i may of read your comment incorrectly and if i did please correct BUT i believe you said what really decides is sales but yet you said to take one of the number 1 games ever sold off of the list Pokemon??????????

  • @SkyClawX I said take it off for my opinion, then I said at the end sales are what make the top games but not really, b/c many ppl buy and find out they didn't like it, so might as well scratch that.

  • 1) Persona 3/ Final Fantasy IX

    2) .hack G.U. series

    3) Kingdom Hearts series

    4) Star Ocean The Last Hope/ Till the End of Time

    5) Magna Carta 2 (Now, there's a game hardly anybody knows which is a damn shame.)

  • Kinda disappointed Tales of Phantasia was so high on the list...and Final Fantasy X so low...

  • where the hell is the elders scrolls

  • @Jezzaboy97 It seems like In the list are only Jrpgs

  • I am saddened by the lack of Live-A-Live...

    Oh well... at least my other favorite RPGs are on that list, and that is quite correct that Chrono Trigger is #1.
