Default Role Playas... your favorite PS2 RPGs

Since the PS2 is slowly fading into history, it's high time to snag all the rare titles and 'diamonds in the rough' before they become impossible to get ahold of.

So, list your favorite RPGs for the PS2. And yes... Final Fantasy... everyone knows that, I want to see OTHER good titles.

So far I have added these to my collection:

Ar Tonelico (collectors edition with artbook)
Magna Carta (collectors edition with artbook)
Growlanser Generations
Shining Tears
Disgaea: Hour of Darkness
Dual Hearts
Wizardry: Tale of the Forsaken Land
Metal Saga
Stella Deus
Legaia 2
Evergrace

I'm looking for Phantom Brave, LaPucelle and the Atelier offerings for the PS2. Anything else I should keep my eyes open for?

For PSone:

-Suikoden II (very very rare)
-Lunar Silver Story Complete
-Lunar 2: Eternal Blue
-Grandia

For PS2:
-Dragon Quest VIII
-Suikoden III.
-Star Ocean III: Till the End of Time
-Tales of Symphonia
-Valkyrie Profile 2
-Ys Ark of Nepishtim
-Skies of Arcadia
-Musashi Samurai Legend
-.hack//
-Grandia II/III

IMO, PSone had a lot better RPG games, why? Because they spawned a lot of classics/sequels into the PS2, as you can see from above. Im more old-school RPG than the newer ones.

Snagged DQ8 already. I had Star Ocean, but the combat system SUCKED. I've been told that Ys isn't too good, but I've had this want to check it out. I'll keep my eyes open for clean copies of the Grandia sequels.

Yeah, the PSOne is where the best RPGs sit. No doubt there.

That, and Working Designs is *ALWAYS* known for their extras when it comes to boxed sets. The Growlanser box set for example includes the game, soundtrack, artbook, the necklace and ring from the game, and a metal band watch.

Wow.
