/vr/ - Retro Games

This game had such an awesome cover that I couldn't help but rent it once.

Why, why did it have to be so horrible? Did anybody else play this wretched game?

I am literally in tears right now OP.

I finally found IT.

PIC FUCKING RELATED.

When this game came out I was just a wee laddy (6), and this was my first PS1 RPG after playing Breath of Fire on the SNES.

I could never remember the title until just now searching for it again because of your thread. It has taken me the better portion of 10 years since remembering where I got stuck in this game, to recall the title, since I had only rented it.

So I give to you a true gem of mine, memories I've held very close (I played this while my mom was in the hospital, pregnant with my twin sisters), so I had a lot of memories surrounded by this title. This and Star Gladiator, as well as a couple cartoon movies, were rented by my dad for me, since they were leaving me in the care of my grandma.

I'm so happy this thread helped me find this game. I give you my favorite PS1 RPG due to immense nostalgia.

Beyond the Beyond.

Anyone have a link to a good iso of this game? I tried many common and uncommon places but the game always glitched out after a certain point. I figured at first it was the emulator not being able to support it properly but the same thing happened to every PSX emu I tried.

Any help would greatly be appreciated as I want to live my golden memories...

I don't know why. Objectively it's a fucking awful game. Shitty battle system, shitty appearance, shitty puzzles, like half the game is one convoluted fetch quest, the characters are all flat and lifeless, the leveling system sucks, even the art's not great to look at (though I admit I like the character portraits).

But for some reason I just find it so FUN. I keep finding myself wanting to play it again. I just genuinely enjoy it and I really have no fucking idea why. I think something might be broken in my brain.
