A Random Request

Well, the following week is my spring break. That means I can start my annual tradition.

I'm in the habit of playing an RPG all the way through (or at least extensively) on Spring Break, neglecting sleep and sometimes food. However, this year I am undecided as to which RPG I should seriously give a go. So I shall list off some acquisitions of mine and get your recommendations.

Phantom Brave
Breath of Fire III
Chrono Cross
Star Ocean II
Shadow Hearts: Covenant
Star Ocean: Til The End of Time

Since I try to neglect Final Fantasy games during this period, I've only listed the six I've barely played (or have not yet played at all) and am the most interested in. Which one should I play?

I would recommend either BoF III or SO III. Just recently I successfully burned my entire winter break on Star Ocean: Til the End of Time.

Out of those Breath of Fire III.

Closely followed by Phantom Brave.

Phantom Brave.

I have a negative recommendation for Chrono Cross. It's not a fun game, especially if you just want to power through it.

For a short-but-sweet game, I recommend Threads of Fate (aka Dewprism). A gamer like you should be able to finish this in a few days.

Star Ocean 3 is a lot of fun. Although towards the end it can get a bit annoying. I got all the way to the final boss and I can't win. -CSM

Hell yes. 'Threads of Fate' rules.

Of the ones listed, 'Phantom Brave'.
