    The guys been trolling the final fantasy forum as well. Pay no heed. Some one that rates FFVII over panzer dragoon saga is clearly lying when theysay they have played it.

    I think I insulted him and made him cry.

    ha ha. i bet he is crying! however i dont see why anybody would be lying about playing a game. everyone has their own opinion and some of us prefer ff7 to pds or other games. in fact the majority of the world prefer ff7 as games sales will show. i know that doesnt mean it is better, but it shows it is more popular whether u like it or not

    Game sales means nothing, casual gamers are lemmings. Always buying the next big 'A' title, and ignoring everything else. That's not to say some 'A' titles are not good, but when you have the same games charting at the same time every year it means nothing. (Every November Smackdown charting for example.) So just because FF VII sold well doesn't make it the best RPG around. It's ok but dated badly.

    u need to stop talking through your rear end, friend. wtf is your list, i believe marcusphoenix asked for the ten BEST games ever, not the ten WORST! you're clearly a n00b, bubble bobble was flawed, i recall the infamous "purple bubble" in level 10 being one of the biggest glitches in gaming history. as for panzer dragoon saga, i wasted 20 quid on that pile of stinking dog ****, no wonder it's "rare" as you so put it, because, quite simply its a load of cock. radiant silvergun is a bit of a strange one indeed, seeing as its probably good if you're a five year old girl.

    Why isn't Radiant Silvergun on your list? Seeing as five year old girls love it and all...

    :pac:

    In all seriousness though, it's a great game. Anyone saying otherwise is just wrong. End of.

    As for Final Fantasy VII having more sales than PDS, it's just down to advertising and publicity. Look how many sales the likes of the 50 cent game gets. And that's a turd.

    Saying that though, I do love FF VII. No matter how much Retr0 bangs on about it :p

    u clearly don't appreciate video games if you stopped reading. the name of the post is "your top ten", ie its about personal preference and opinion. my opinion is that ff7 is one of the greatest games ever made. its my view so keep your ****ty opinion to yourself.

    If you had played Panzer Dragoon Saga you wouldn't be saying this. Popularity also is never an indicator of whether something is good or not. FFVII is a great game, but best ever or even in a top 10? Only if you haven't played many games.

    Also purple bubble in Bubble Bobble? Don't make up stuff up next time you want to sound intelligent. Anyway when has a bug made a game bad? Games like Fallout and Baldurs Gate are riddled with bugs but they are classics.

    This is a forum. People post. Other people comment on said posts. So my opinion is FF 7 highly over rated.

    I have played Panzer Dragoon Sage and would rate FF VII higher than it.

    thank you marcusphoenix, you clearly have a magnificent taste in games. i too love your top ten, goldeneye imo has not aged a bit, a visual treat for the sometimes overwrought senses. as for your love of the gears of war games, i also am a fan. my humble brother and i completed the game on co-operative mode and it was a truly wonderful gaming experience. a truly ingenious thread started by your good self, it is rather a pity that so many n00bs are commenting and raving on about the putrid, foul and oftentimes stinking Panzer Dragoon Saga.

    i am aware of that. but i said "the beauty of RPGs". beauty is not a word i would associate with panzer dragoon saga.

    And I posted FF7 as not being a great game. So how is it the end of discussion? It's great just because you say so? No. For you it's great, for me it's not.

    Don't mind him, he probably doesn't have a saturn or if he did play it he played 10 minutes of it.

    I'd say he thinks panzer dragoon is the same game as panzer dragoon saga if he really isn't lying.

    tbh, i have played pds, the extremely rare japanese rpg, and it doesnt even come near cleaning ff7's shoes imo. it was one of the reasons i got rid of my saturn

    i'm talking about panzer dragoon saga, and i have played it. i personally found the game to be boring and drawn out, unlike the fantastic and far better final fantasy VII


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 53,283 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Well maybe you think that but there's dozens of other RPGs out there that do what FFVII does and do it better. Suikoden 2, Grandia, most of the SMT games. FFVII has some serious flaws that really can't be ignored. Even in the FF series I'd take 6, 9 and Tactics over it.

    i agree. i sold my saturn also and bought final fantasy VII action figures with the money.
