Eschneider6 This is the third part in a long running series from Konami, there's Suikoden and Suikoden II both worth checking out.
Enter the land of Grassland in Suikoden III, where war and conflict have been between the six clans of Grassland, Zexen Federation, and Holy Kingdom of Harmonia. What's different in Suikoden III is that you play the story through the eye's of 3 characters. Geddoe, Captain of the small defense force of Harmonia, Hugo, a son of Grasslands Chief Lucia, and Chris who is Captain of the Knights of Zexen. You choose whom to start the game out as, and see the story unfold by 3 points of view.
There are many secrets to this game, so I won't spoil them for you. This game took me 89 hours to beat, and that's including opening all the secrets! It's a deep game with traditional RPG battles, but also includes strategic battles later in the game as well. Also, the gathering of the 108 stars of Destiny. Each person has a skill to help you during the game. This game has a great story, great characters and some good cinemas as well. Two things make the score 8.5, the fetch quests and the lack of places to visit. I recommend you buy this game, so stop reading this review so you can go play this great RPG!
My review score for Suikoden III= 8.5
Score 1= Throw out
Score 10= Must Buy
