What players say

Every SaGa game feels like you've stumbled upon a really popular video game series from an alternate timeline. Somewhere in the multiverse is a dimension where these games became more popular than Final Fantasy, and I want to live in that world. It is maniacal, free-form exploration and turn-based combat in a pop-up world. There are no towns or dungeons at all, it is soul-crushingly low budget. The worst SaGa game...

One of the most overlooked RPGs of all time. It's hard to reccomend SaGa to most people but this is a must-play for any enthusists of the genre as it has an in-depth combat system to master and story events aren't TOO obtuse. (I'd reccomend running multiple save files of the same playthrough though, just in case an event doesn't play out the way you want it to and you need to go back.)

Okay, Now I remember why I though the PS VITA was a joke. This could have been a mobile game... Final Fantasy Crisis Core was on PSP :S I'll give it a Meh minus. Guess it is the two-headed black sheep with no leg of Saga.
