Is that a "beggars can't be choosers" pup?

Sure it is. Two is the only one that gets a lot of praise. I think one was solid for when it came out and I think it's still worth a go as a lead in to part two. Two was great. Dungeon time was low, there was a lot more invested in the characters than the first one and the storytelling was solid. It reminded me of a graphic adventure at times with the animations. But three got a mixed reaction, four is out and out hated and I don't know what people think of five. It's hardly an overrated series. At best, people expected a lot out of the series after two came out and I guess ended up dissapointed.

No bonus material for III and with IV you got a art book with preorder at Gamestop. Tactics comes with an audio cd inside the case.

Nice try. People were hailing Suikoden II as a masterpiece long before exorbitant ebay prices. And it deserves every last drop of praise it gets, and more.

People here hail Final Fantasy VII, Kingdom Hearts II, and fucking Phantasy Star Online as masterpieces.

Just because stupid people hailed it as such doesn't mean Nash did.

At least pay attention, trolls. I know you're not known for your intellect, but c'mon, it's not that complicated. I was responding to the accusation that Suikoden II only started receiving praise after prices skyrocketed on ebay.

Majority of RPG gamers pre-ebay:

"Suikoden II is a great RPG."
"Suikoden II is an excellent RPG."

Majority of RPG gamers post-ebay:

"OMG! best RPG evar!!!1"
