I am trying to find more games that are somewhat like Final Fantasy games. Please post what platform it is for too.
The few I know are ...
Breath of Fire 4 for PSX
Chrono Trigger for SNES
Secret of Mana for SNES
I know there are a bunch more for SNES and I am more interested in PSX/PS2/PC games because the graphics are a hell lot better.

havent Square Soft and Enix combined to make "Square Enix" ?
I am not saying write long lists just a few games that you can put on the same level as FF7 :)
I'm more interested in PC games though... they should release more of these types of game for PC because the gfx look so much better when you got aniso. filtering and anti aliasing on :D
-
Enix is another rather specialized (or was, before they merged) company.
Yep, Squaresoft and Enix merged into SquareEnix.
-
you mean Squeenix??
-
Same difference, haha, I'll be damned if I ever spell anything right...

You can list Chrono TRIGGER but not Chrono CROSS?!?!?!
£ main characters, 47 sub characters...and no, thats WASNT a typo, 47 people to have in your party (3 at any one time)
Ive just imported it from USA as its only released over there and am running it on an emulator and its damn good. Cant find a program to rip and ISO though so i get better DTR's.....Any ideas people?

No, it really is SquareEnix!! I'm just think Squeenix sounds funny!!!

Digital Tape Recorders? :o
Nonono :P Data transfer rates. I find that laoding movies and changing areas/engaging in batlles has 1 second lags...sometimes movies are up to 5 seconds....
Thanks for the CloneCD idea, but ive already used my 15 day trial of it -_-

You could just download the disc image from some P2P service. No harm done, since you have the original.
Anti-piracy organizations and some software licenses which prohibit even backups will certainly disagree with me, but I don't see how anyone (well, except SlySoft, possibly) would suffer from that.
Thants all well and good....Except im a 56Ker....56K>me

Lol... so I was watching Naruto a few days ago and it was like "Please support our sponsors: SonyMusic, Square Enix"
The japanese say square in a crazy way.

The only PC games I know of that play like FF are....
Anachronox, I never saw the ending of this one....Couldn't figure out the final battle...then I lost my harddrive. You do have to level up all your party members....or the final battle will own you. That's probably the main reason why I couldn't beat it. And the game has a point-of-no-return...that I was stuck at, because of lack of saves. And Grandia II, if you can find it.
As for the PS2...
The closest match to FF10 would be Xenosaga (but with more talking, and more cutscenes....a lot more cutscenes...like, 75% more, with 25% being actual playing, or so it will seem for the first 15 hours.)
And Shadow Hearts....good game, but It feels better, if you've played Kouldelka, first. And I don' know about this one...I haven't played, it so I don't know how much like FF it is, but I may get it someday Suikoden3.
As for the PS1...pick one....but I like Xenogears out of all of them....Legend of Dragoon wasn't that bad and neither was Legend of Legaia or Valkery Profile. But all of these got repetitious, except for Xgears....the story was interesting enough to ignore the reputition, much like your FF games.

I just picked up a copy of Chrono Cross today. So I will start playing it soon. I am expecting a lot out of it because I have read a lot of good reviews..
I guess what separates FF games from others is the story. Even though fighting FF gets repetitive really fast, the story makes you want to keep playing, so that's what is "similar to FF" for me :)

Since no one has listed them
Lufia 1 SNES
Lufia 2 SNES
-
Lufia 2 was awesome!
Lufia 1 was ok.
I particularly liked Tales of Phantasia for SNES. It was only released in Japan, but DeJap (http://www.dejap.com/) did a translation.

I didnt think Star Ocean got a uk release...
-
Phantasy Star Online
Septerra Core
Golden Sun
Summoner (not really FF but it's really fun!!)
Die by the Sword (not too great but be warned! It sucks in VISM mode.)
-
Lufia and Lufia 2: Rise of the sinistrals(just called Lufia in europe since first release)

I remember Planescape Torment.... I actually finished that one. It has multiple endings...kinda. But all the endings didn't make any since except for the one without the final battle....which is kinda wierd, if you think about it. A game without a final battle. You can only activate the good text, ending if you have a special dagger...and attempt to kill the main character with it....via. text. Anyway it was the only ending that made any sense...or gave the ending movie a meaning, anyway.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars!

Yeah I know...I said attempted. But I have to say, that wasn't the ending I got originally, I went to a FAQ and found out that it had multiple ending. I also had that special dagger in my inventory, and was able to see the other ending. The first ending I got...when It went to the ending movie I was thinking WTF is this? (which doesn't change no matter what ending you get). I think I remember the credits, I think they mentioned X-com, too.
I have BG2, and BG1, I'd finished BG1, but never got to finish the second one. My HD fried...and I was so far in that game, too. Just haven't had the will to start a new game. Besides I have Kotor to finish, which is basicly BG2 with improved graphics and lightsabers.
-
I think they mentioned X-com, too.
OH! I LOVE X-COM!!! They ruined it with Apocolypse though :(
Terror from the deep and UFO Enemy unknown are my all time favourite turnbased action games EVER.
-
You might want to check out Jagged Alliance 2, then. It's kinda Xcom meets Fallout.

No, Seriously, I found it really boring....
Now I've got My emulator running properly, I can whole heartedly say Chrono Cross is very close to taking FF7's top spot in my altime favourite games list.
-

IMHO then you didn't play it much :)
Fallouts just rock. Next time I'm gonna play it for a strong & dumb muscular guy, and im gonna roam through wastelands with two rocketlaunchers. I heard that if your intelligence is below 2 then game is alot different (you cannot speak your way into some quests and so on)

Intelligence determines what you can say. If your intelligence is low enough when you speak to people you can end up only having grunts and groans for responses, I havent done it myself, but one of my friends played a character with 1 intelligence once, wasnt very interesting I think, haha.

Perhaps il fire it up later...Anyone know if it works on XP?
-
I know it works on 2000, so it should work on XP.

Sweetness.
