108 Stars to Wish On

bycrucify Jun 7, 2001
18 Helpfuls 19 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Dizzying array of characters, interesting storyline.
Cons Too short, mediocre graphics and boring combat (both major battles and party battles).
Recommended it? Yes

Suikoden is proof-positive that a game need not span four discs that contain more CG animation than actual gameplay to be a fun and interesting experience. In spite of the Super Nintendo graphics/sound and brevity of the game, Suikoden's innovative "headquarters" system and storyline make this a... Read full review »

Step One

Pros Easy to learn, amazing music, novel story, easy to navigate, can save often.
Cons Sometimes, too simple. Some puzzles are annoying. Some characters, as well. Unfinished.
Recommended it? Yes

I've played Suikoden 1 more than 50 times. Why? Because, when compared to your average rpg, Suikoden's second playthrough can run less than 8 hours.

Your first playthrough can last as long as 40.

The secret of the whole Suikoden series, 1 starting everything off, is that the games are... Read full review »

Suikoden

Pros Good storyline, outstanding gameplay, has mini-games and hidden quests.
Cons Not so good graphics.
Recommended it? Yes

There is no other game that made me addicted to videogame other than Suikoden. The game is Konami's first Role-playing game that was released in Playstation console. From it's first released, the game was not widely recognized by the Rpg gamers like me. Final Fantasy 7, during that time was owning... Read full review »

Pros Great storyline and amazing music.
Cons Graphics kind of old by today's standards.
Recommended it? Yes

Suikoden came out when I was 15 years old. Now, I'm 20 and a sequel has already been made. I never knew Konami to make an RPG this good.

STORYLINE

You play as a son of a wealthy and popular general and you have some people working for you. Somewhere in the game, you meet up with... Read full review »

An RPG of Epic Proportions

11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Vast Storyline, Characters You Can Sympathize With
Cons Dated Graphics, A Little On The Short Side
Recommended it? Yes

I had never really heard of Suikoden before becoming a member of the Epinions community. Being a huge fan of RPG's, I'm not really sure how I missed out on this gem when it was first released. Actually, yes I do know why. When the Playstation was still a new console, and Suikoden was a new release,... Read full review »

Wierd name. Great game.

Pros More than 100 characters. Castle building.
Cons Not great graphics.
Recommended it? Yes

I'd seen this one on the shelves of the video store for months after I'd gotten my Playstation. I never even picked it up to look at it because of it's wierd name, until I'd gone through every RPG on the shelves I could find, and was looking for something else to play. Imagine my surprise when I... Read full review »

War and Intrigue... What else do you need?

Pros A wonderful tribute to the genre, and beautiful musical score
Cons Somewhat old, and the battles can get repetitive.
Recommended it? Yes

Okay, Speaking from a gamer's point of view, this is a good first for many RPG buffs. Not to say that it's easy by any right, it's just the type of game that I would gladly recommend to someone who is just breaking into the genre at large. The game drops you right in the middle of an empirical... Read full review »

Cute boy McDohl leads an army of 10,000+ men

Pros great music
Cons monsters..EVERYWHERE
Recommended it? Yes

Suikoden.

You mention the name of this game to a crowd of RPG-lovers, and they will tell you how they spend 3 whole days locked up in their room to find all 108 stars/characters and of course, beat the game.

So why is it such a big deal? I mean, this game's graphics are all 2-D,... Read full review »

Unite the Stars of Destiny

Pros Wonderful interface, music, and town system.
Cons Too many characters for deep development.
Recommended it? Yes

When Konami stated that they were going to release a traditional RPG for the Playstation, many doubted that it would be any good. Konami had come to be known for games such as Castlevania and Conta, and, despite how enjoyable their action games have always been, making a quality RPG is something... Read full review »

Wonderously Awesome!

Pros Adventure, 108 characters, great story-line
Cons You basically need the book to get a lot of secrets and all 108 characters
Recommended it? Yes

Step into a world full of mystical, mythical and magical characters and go through their wondrous journey to save their world!

You gotta love an RPG that has 108 characters! Seriously! You only get to name the main character, which is upsetting for me, I love that part about most RPG's,... Read full review »
