Just download Suikoden II. There's no reason to spend that much money for a game.


Good games are always worth their money. I could not think of playing this great game while always having in mind that what I'm playing is nothing but a stupid, soul less CDR.

As for the game, I enjoyed all of them, while part 4 was the least intense experience. The story was still good (and how do I like this calm villain), but it's nothing compared to the greatness of Suikoden II.

There was already much said about the games which I could agree to. My suggestion is that you play the games in their time line order:

4 - 5 - 1 - 2- 3. You could leave out four, but you should really start with five. It takes its time until the story evolves, but I thought it was a great idea to tell more about the backgrounds of the characters and villains. I mean hey, so many games just start off with some big bang and tell you tidbits about the past afterwards. Why not tell the past in the correct order?

Two is definitely the best game of the series, and one of the best RPGs ever produced as well (However nearly every version except the japanese suck in their own way), but you won't spoil three if you play it before that.

If there's anyone interested in getting a little overview of the Suikoden series, there's one here, you might also want to check out SuikoSource, although I personally think the latter is something for freakish fans rather than people who want to get in touch with Suikoden.

I really support the playing of 1 and 2 (at least 2) before 3. I mean, REALLY.


Why not play 5 before 1? I mean, that would really be a neat 25-year-timeline, wouldn't it?
