    @Demoskinos: Wow, harsh. I ABSOLUTELY love this game, it's one of my favorites. Don't compare it to FF and you'll probably like it.

    I thought this game was kinda mediocre. Reviews certainly made it look that way at the time of release. If you say its one of your favorite games, maybe I ought to try it out now?

    i never finished it. one thing i remember being less-than-pleased with was the triangle above dart that changed colour as an encounter was getting nearer in time. very strange.

    Game was OK. The dialogue was terrible. I like the timing based combos at the time.

    @Morningstar: Well, the thing that really killed this game is the fact that it came out around the same time FFVII came out, which absolutely killed any hope it had because of FF fan base. If you can get over the aged graphics, and a sub-par writing then yes, I recommend it. Keep in mind the game is long, and there is some grinding involved.

    @Coafi: Sounds good. I still have plenty of Ps1 games in my back catalogue so graphics is not a problem. Thanks for the tip ^^

    @Coafi: WHAT!? Are you kidding me? Not four days ago, I crawled into a dusty attic with the sole intention of finding my old copy. I found it, but I probably emerged with rabies after having to fight several bats for possession of it.

    Good times. Looking forward to playing it again, though. :)

    @Morningstar: No problem! I hope you like it!

    @Draugen: Haha, I'm as surprised as you are, at least now more people will have a chance to play it, instead of looking in dusty attics.

    I loved the timing based combat in this game, but can't remember a single thing about it's story. Maybe that speaks to the overall quality of it

    I really like this game. It's one of the few PS1 games that I absolutely had to keep when I moved. Some of the game is so fucking weird and bad, but in general Discs 1,3,4 are really good. Something about Disc 2 always irked me really bad, but I haven't played it in awhile.

    Might get it for nostalgia's sake. I've grown so far away from those types of RPGs that I'm not sure I could will myself through it, but I remember liking it at the time.

    I really liked this game when it came out, and have played it though at least twice. But I tried to play it again somewhat recently and it has not aged all that well.

    So excited for this. This is one of the first "real" JRPG's I can remember myself playing, so it has a ton of nostalgia for me. I imagine it probably isn't as good as I remember, as others are pointing out, but I just have to do this!

    Why hello there, Mr. WakizashiM. Lol, sorry. I was just reading the comments on the blog and then jumped over here and saw the EXACT message. Had to confirm my suspicions!

    I'll be checking this out most likely. I missed a lot of great ps1 games (never owned a ps1) and this one seems pretty highly regarded. Then again, I got so many PS1 classics on my harddrive, iunno when I'm ever gonna get to them.

    I don't really remember much about this game (I borrowed it from a friend when I was in high school). The only thing I can remember about this game is that there was a really tough boss in the later part of the game that punished you for transforming into dragoons. I remember dying numerous times. Depending on what the price it, I might pick it up once it's released for download.

    I loved Legend of Dragoon. Such an involved combat system and a great story. Next to Final Fantasy IX (which is dramatically underrated) it is my favorite game on the PSOne.
