  • Truly one of the classics, but still does not hold a candle to its direct descendant.
There are plenty of reviews out there that probably have already covered more than I ever could in a tiny Amazon product review. Go and find them! Just know that this game is highly recommended, though I would advise downloading from the Playstation store rather than shelling out 3 hundred $#^%$# dollars for a video game. ... show more

  • Classic game
A classic game to a classic series. Suikoden opens the series, so it's not perfect, having more than a few features that needed to be tweaked and perfected, but it's still a great game in it's own right. Story: 8/10 The story isn't entirely original (tiny little resistance fights against giant, corrupt empire, seen it a million times), but the characters more than make up for it. Most of people in this story, be they main characters, allies, villains, or even simple background characters, are charming, lovable characters, a hallmark of the Suikoden series. Graphics: 4/10 Obviously, being an early-era Playstation game and a simple 2D one at that, the graphics leave a lot to be desired. Granted, 2D games have their own charm, but the visuals haven't aged very well. Sound: 7/10 The music and sound effects are great, but there aren't a whole lot of memorable tracks. Gameplay: 7/10 The battle system is a simple turn-based affair, made more interesting by having 6-person teams, allowing for a larger character party than most games have. The main draw, however, is the 108 Stars of Destiny. The large cast of characters (as mentioned earlier) all have a little personality to them, and collecting all 108 (which admittedly isn't easily done without a gameplay guide) will allow for a better ending, starting a tradition followed by every game in the series. The battles get sort of stale after a while, but there's a few quirks to keep it somewhat interesting. Mystical Runes that allow for magic and special attacks (along with other effects), combination attacks with specific characters, and two other types of battles (army battles and duels) try to keep the game fresh, but whether or not they do is really up to the player. Overall: 6/10 A classic game, as I've said repeatedly, but one you won't regret playing. ... show more

  • Possilbly the first RPG with unlimited replayability!!!
Suikoden is a game that's easy to underrate. The game can be completed in less than 20 hours. The graphics and FMV's are good, but not groundbreaking. The story is noble, but not extremely original. Most of it's 108 characters are pretty forgettable. And it's `large battle' scenarios are little more than a thinly disguised rock-paper-scissors game. Yet despite all that, Suikoden is an RPG that really needs to be played to be appreciated. First of all, there are a total of 108 characters that you recruit. You can choose a party of 6 from all those who've you recruited. These characters and their fighting abilities are the backbone of the Suikoden game. Some of the characters seem pretty useless in battle, with weak attacks and defense. However, some characters' abilities can combine with others to create a more powerful attack. Finding the 108 characters is part of the fun...it's NOT easy! Another fun aspect is trying to figure out who can combine with whom, and how powerful their combined attack is - something that you may feel compelled to do each time you recruit someone new. And, oh yes, don't forget that you're in a war and must defeat the enemy...the whole point of the game!!!! Additionally, some quests have hidden benefits if you have certain party members with you. For instance, if you travel to an Elfan village, it's a good idea to have the elf in your party because you may be able to get more items or information than humans alone would. In this vein, you have to think who be really beneficial at any given part of the game. While it may seem like a waste to keep a character that throws a frying pan as their weapon, he could be of particular use at some point. So it's not always best to keep only your strongest characters in your party. Normal battles are pretty standard turn-based battles. There is an added bit of strategy here in how you set up your party for battle. Characters with long-range weapons can be placed anywhere, but characters with close range weapons (swords, daggers, etc.) must be placed in the front. Keeping track of how to place 108 characters like this sounds like quite a task, but it's really not so daunting once you figure out who's who. "War" battles are the one facet of the game that I'm not fond of. You choose one of three tactics to fight: Archers, melee, or magic. The computer chooses one, too. Then the battle ensues with a rock-paper-scissors type of resolution. (Melee beats archers, archers beat magic, magic beats melee). These battles add little to the storyline, are not exciting to watch, and ruin the tempo of the game. Luckily, they happen fairly infrequently. Even less frequent is the one-on-one battle. These are basically tests of strength (both attack and defense strength) of a character. If he can survive against his opponent, he is worthy to carry on. Otherwise, he must go back and train (fight more monsters with the group until he levels up). These battles are like checkpoints, and sometimes will advance the storyline when your foe is defeated. They are not as much of a distraction as the war battles, but it is merciful that they are infrequent. The ending that I saw was pretty decent and worth the 20 hours of play. Supposedly, a more elaborate ending awaits if you find and recruit all 108 characters (I had only 80+ characters). Just knowing that would make me want to play through the game again more diligently (We had borrowed the game last time, so I kind of rushed through the second half). I think that the whole game took me 16-18 hours, so it was pretty short. Because of the sheer number of characters and combinations, this game could be replayed several times and not get old. Because of the high demand and low supply of this game, it is usually pretty expensive (IF you can find a copy of it). It is definitely NOT worth the high prices that it is selling for at the time of this writing (ranging from $80 to over $200). But if you're lucky enough to find one for a more reasonable price, you won't be disappointed. ... show more
