The best RPG of all time? Have you ever played a Final Fantasy? IV? VII? Practically all of them have more epic storylines. What about Xenosaga? That trilogy has probably the most epic storyline ever.

What Breath of Fire 2 was epic cause it had 9 characters? Suikoden has 107.

The gameplay and balance in BOF2 was ridiculous. It was such a boring game, and yes the translation was horrible. All the games I mentioned are much better games, and there are many more that trump BOF2 in every way.

Be more careful when throwing around those words "Best RPG of all time"

Still no Super Mario RPG...

"Considering SE's relationship with Sony, it doesn't seem likely that SE will cut a deal with Nintendo."

You're ignoring that they've released all those old Final Fantasy games on the GBA and DS, plus don't forget Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. Square DID have an exclusivity agreement with Sony back in the day, but that's finished with, and now Square is partnering with whomever they feel is right for the job.

And I found this game way too hard, with too much battling, and not enough story. Still it was better than the first one.
