So you want to get into RPG's? (A Beginners Game Guide)

Never played an RPG before? Here is a video to help with some suggestions of some good beginner/starter (mainly traditional Japanese) RPG's for the SNES, PS1, PS2, PS3, 360, DS, and PSP. I get a ton of messages asking for suggestions on RPG's particularly for these systems, and a good majority of them are from people who have never played an RPG before, so I hope this video will help!
I mention "turn-based RPG's" a lot in this video. It refers to battles that take place where the enemies are typically on one side of the screen and your players are on the other side and you take turns attacking one another. This is most common in "JRPG'S" (Japanese Role Playing Games)

@OstrichSac1 Don't give life advice to people when you are sitting at a computer, browsing youtube and watching videos about rpg recommendations.

I use to be a big RPG fan in Middle School/High School when my Big Bro live with us. My favorite RPGS is Chrono Trigger and Star Ocean 2. But i need to play more RPGS for research for my Video Game Idea, Return of Naga. would like Dragon Quest 8, Dragon Quest 9, Dragon Quest 6, Final Fantasy 13,Blue Dragon,Tales of Vesperia and Eternal Sonata.

I'd also like to recommend the Mega-Man Battle Network series on the Game Boy Advanced. Great RPG with an interesting battle system that is quite easy to understand, but a bit difficult to master.

Hello bro, I'm not a huge fan of turned-based RPGs, actually, I've never played an RPG game, so what about the Action RPGs? are those like Zelda? Could you recomend me a game with very complex story, but with action gameplay for any of the Nintendo consoles (including handhelds)?

@PeteDorr You never talked about Star Ocean! That series is amazing and a great starter RPG. My brother is not really into RPG's but that game grabbed him and now he is hooked! Whats your thoughts on Star Ocean and have you played it?

I'd say start from the bottom up. Snes would be a great place to start. Final Fantasy V/VI, Chrono Trigger, Breath Of Fire I/II, Lufia I/II. After that, you'll be fully prepared for just about anything that comes later.

FF9 is my favorite FF also...and too bad you didn't recommend Demon's souls as a starter RPG. anyone who knows anything about it understands it's a terrible STARTER rpg...but it would be funny to get some reactions anyway. It's a great Action style RPG for anyone into the genre tho. Amazing if you stick with it. And Dark Souls was even better IMO. Love the souls games.
