Grim Fandango
Knights of the Old Republic
Monkey Island series

undoubtedly the finest adventure games ever produced

most of the games listed in the original post are fairly easy to beat. here's one that may present a challenge, though.

I assume you mean FFVI when you say FFIII. fix plz =D
I'd also add in FFIV while you're at it
I dont think beating FFV is very necessary, VIII and IX are clearly unnecessary. In fact VIII was so bad i stopped playing the series alltogether.

Maybe Resident Evi I?
ALso I think Tales of Phantasia is considered one of the best SNES RPG's ever (i think it was a 32 bit game -__-; (it' s official game gener is "legendary RpG' lololol)


Chrono Trigger >>> Chrono Cross. It's not even worth playing Chrono Cross other than for its great music.

btw, shouldnt we include MYST in this list, if it's a "beat game before death" thread? It's one of the most revolutionary games of all time, so it should prolly be in there, no matter how shitty it may be under today's standards. (plus it's probably still a good game).

no thanks to xenogears? if you liked ff7, or any square game, you'd probably like that one.
it's the best playstation game i've ever owned (read: not 0wn3d, although i've beaten it several times)

wtf with mgs3? It has like the best storyline of the three and it lets you in into what happens in Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, as well as the mgs series and all the characters.
