The original Wild Arms intro will always be the best RPG intro ever to me. It was the only game that I never once skipped the intro to, ever. Every time I turned the game on I watched it.

Still Wild Arms has a best intro

Wild Arms intro certainly hits me the hardest when I watch it. Very much my favorite.

Wild arms :')

The simple fact that you put in both Chrono Trigger and Cross's opening in here got you my thumbs up. Thank you.

Nostalgia is hitting me hard. All of those games on your list were top notch. I would add Thousand Arms and Suikoden 2 in there. ˇˇ

I know its kind of cheating to have two games from the same series but Wild Arms 2 should also be on the list, it is an excellent opening.

Lunar!! So underrated! My first RPG as a kid, before I even touched ff7!

im actively streaming legend of legaia it still holds up to the test of an amazing RPG

suikoden 2?

Thanks man! When I was thinking about making this video, Wild Arms and FF8 were actually the first two titles I thought of.

Watching these gave me goosebumps of happiness. Talk about bring back old times. Awesome picks for sure :)

The 1st Parasite Eve was an Rpg and had a good intro. Suikoden 2, Xenogear.

I love legend of dragoon. Still my favourite game to this day

Literally cheered out loud when Wild Arms intro started. This was a fantastic trip down memory lane and a great reminder for me to play Grandia, thanks!

I'm surprised that neither of the Suikoden game intros were on your list. Those are excellent intros.

Man this video brings back memories. I've played them all, and I still do to this day, at least most of them...

I just drowned in waves of nostalgia. Thank you for this, friend.

nice list i was just talking about wild arms and its amazing whistling overture

Great job I love all these games. Would love to see valkyrie profile on here too

That 1st place for me, its from XENOGEARS. No intro en all psx hit me that hard! And the game did the same. My 4ever N° 1 of RPG games.

Chills, 13 years since this has been posted and I still get chills every time I hear it!

Great video!. I really need to play some more of these, they really look great. You gotta give props to Legend of Dragoon for actually showing in-game engine stuff during the intro, the mystical music was also pretty cool. VIII would be my number 1 though, it just has that "epic" feel to it, but the music for Grandia's is really cool as well!.

you deserve so many more views

When I think PS1 RPG Intro, Wilds Arms instantly is the first game I think of, followed closely by FF8. Good list though! :)

Good list. Lunar is Personally my all time favorite, but I'm glad you have it on the list.

Thank you so much!

Suikoden 2 the best opening

Great choice. PS1 games had great atmospheric openings. Would add Breath of Fire 4 and Suikoden 2 to it as well.

I totaly approve this video. 10 legendary rpgs, with legendary intros.

I think my favourite intro is Dark Cloud! The original has so much charm (and does the sequel, although I haven't played it yet), and its music is a highlight for me.

nice list! MVHH

Wild Arms, EPIC!

All of these were massively impactful on me, and in no small part because of their intros and soundtracks. Well chosen.

Wild Arms and Chrono Trigger were some of the first jrpgs I ever played. Thank you Play Station 1 for having such remarkable titles in your library.

Wild Arms 2nd Ignition intro should be in 1st place, and wild Arms 1 is in 2nd

Lunar is my fav use to sit and rewatch it over and over. Tho I did the same for most of these

born in the 80's here... list is accurate

I own 8/10 games you showed and enjoy everyone of them

When the rpg story are an adventure

played Lunar on segaCD one year earlier ;9

😊 Grandia!

Good list. Missed Xenogear though.

Wild ARMs and Wild ARMs 2 have the best intros ever! Also, funny that the first thing I thought about when opening this video was Lunar Silver Star Story ... and there it is as the first one. I REALLY don't agree with the number one spot by the way. I have played that game (and every other one on the list except for Breath of Fire IV pretty much) and don't even remember the intro. Aforementioned Wild ARMs 2 should have been given the number one spot.

I think that this is an awesome list. I would add Gensou Suikoden I and II, Wild Arms 2 (both intros), Vandal Hearts and even though I don't know if it deserves to be on this list, an intro that I do really enjoy is the one for Guardian's Crusade.

I missed of Final Fantasy IX and VII intros... IX is gorgeous opening scheme!!!

Well, here in 2021, considering to this day and 5 ps systems now Grandia’s still my all time favorite rpg (if you haven’t played it, it’s an absolute gem), I’d say you got it right.

Wild Arms got a nice tune and ranks pretty high, but I have to say Chrono Cross has to be the best with its music and visuals. Just watching Serge ride the waves as the beat drops after the slow tempo accompanying you in with the candlelit storybook opening is just goosebumps inducing. BoF IV is also a personal favourite of mine which I would rank above Wild Arms, but I can see how others like Wild Arms better, but against CC should be no contest. FF8 was edgy but I lost my taste for that, still cool and good memories though. Grandia's opening conveys "adventure" perfectly in sound and visuals, but I still feel it wasn't strong enough compared to CC. Yasunori Mitsuda's composing was just too strong, that shit came in slow, took up speed and went out with a bang, watching that makes you feel like you are ready to take on the world. Serge sailing out like a fking VIking!

God I love this genre

played them all and many more

I remeber nothing about lunar the game, other than how much i enjoyed it and ita opening music

Big thanks for Legend of Legaia. I have no words. Fog... Always fog :)

I loved "Into the Wilderness" from Wild Arms so much that i ripped it and put it on my Ipod. So I get "Thunderstruk" by AC/DC followed by "Into the Wilderness" and The Incredible Hulk's "Lonely Man" theme....yes, I know, weird but hey, still cool to jam as I'm riding down the road.

So much love care and thought

Alundra,suikodens,final fantasy

I have 2 particular favorites, one is Advanced Wings from Wild Arms 3, and though it's not TECHNICALLY an RPG, the intro to Vandal Hearts even if it IS short

I think Tales of Destiny should definitely up there. Crazy opening.

I memorized back can't believe i only play PS RPG in a year - breath of dragon 4 - vagrant story - wild arms 2 - final fantasy 8 - star ocean 2 - chrono cross - tales of eternia - legend of mana - alundra 2 Plus super robot war alpha kill time game Plus RE2, RE3, crisis 1 & 2 play and play to unlock the stuff 😅😅

Chrono Trigger must be in #2 and Wild Arms in #1

MY top 6 #6 Vanguard Bandits #5 Wild Arms 2 #4 Legend of Mana #3 Legend of Dragoon #2 FF8 #1 Suikoden 2.

Wild arms ❤️

Sem a abertura de suikoden 2?

Lunar for me!! Both on Saturn and PS1

As far as intros, nothing beats Wild Arms! :D

Its true Vagrant Story didn't age all that well, but yeah I agree, the anime intros are some of my favorite. Thanks Alex!

Wild Arms 1 opening is top tier among JRPG

J'ai toujours en ma possession VAGRANT STORY JEU magnifique et très dur pour l'époque

You know, if you ever look up the translation for FF 8's intro. song, it's a very melancholy song.

Good top, I loves almost all of them. But... Just PS1 games?

Grandia is the one that I want to see in the last seconds of my life. Nothing ever has reached me this deep.

Love the FF8 intro, but my overall faves on the original PlayStation will always be Chrono Cross and Parasite Eve.

Grandia... Song of adventure.

Oh and the tales series has some good songs

A fucking legendary top 3 men 10/10

Love Suikoden2 too. Ok for the first two, though I prefer a little more Wild arms

My fav intro - Final Fantasy Tactics

You missed Suikoden 2, one of the most important gem of all rpg Edit: Btw, i love all these suikoden comments

why does final fantasy Vii have sephiroth's theme when he isn't even in the game??

Lunar😍😍😍😍

tHE NOSTALGIA

Wild Arms will always be the best, period

Que grandes recuerdos, únicos e irremplszables titulos. Lastima que Sony no hiciera un título de calidad igual o superior a legend of dragoons

kinda funny how Grandia theme really is ignored almost overall on comments. Even I do like most how Wild arms video and music fits together but when comes the music Grandia theme is just better. And funny how I just looked this for accident.

Liberi fatali is what a metal song would be if it were purely orchestral

np! MVHH

Chrono trigger looks like it taken dragon ball z references and characters types then mash them into a game, that is why its so relatable, clever 😁

Chrono Trigger should always take 1st place due to the OST alone. It's literally the Dream Team game.

no thousand arms?

i miss Wild arms day`s :(

I played most of these games but lets be honest, that Grandia doesnt deserve 1st place, the credits is all over the place, and the music isnt the best out there. I bet he just loved this game so much. For me the best intro would be 1. Suikoden 2, best musical intro hands down that match the build up of the story. This is how I interprete the music, desperation > new hope > raise of the army. 2. Wild Arms 1, personally I like the Wild Arms 2 better, but we just cant dismiss the legendary whistle right? 3. Wild Arms 2. Another awesome music, opened with a sax, the second disc also awesome. 4. Chrono cross, It makes u just want to dive into the world of adventure. 5. FF8. I dont know why Legaia is even up there, the intro sucks

1 million likes for Legend of Legaia.

SNES ps and ps2 the rpg golden age

Yeah, Breath of fire IV

How you sleeping on the FFIX intro, especially putting in FFVIII over FFIX?

İf we talking about intros Final Fantay 8 unrivalled...

I love Grandia.

All the Suikoden games of PS1 have a very good intros, take a look, if you never saw it before you will enjoy: - Gensou Suikoden 1: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o9yPl8do27bXo6s.html - Gensou Suikoden 2: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lcxkmKqCnrOth4E.html - Gensou Suikogaiden 1: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eKmbZqqD0dGlY5s.html - Gensou Suikogaiden 2: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z9F8eKSmnZ6-poE.html I know that Suikogaidens are not JRPG but their intros are すごい

No Wild Arms 2 and Valkyrie Profile.

8 puts the rest to shame to be honest. Probably not the best game on the list, but it's intro was very cinematic and the quality was very high for the playstation. cool for putting grandia up there though-- that game is dope. most these games are dope.

Luna. It’s been a while. 😔
