Great game, not sure if its compatible with the newer ps2's though.
Sometimes the game will freeze after a boss fight. It is a greatest hits version though, and I think it might not be completely compatible with the newer slim ps2's.

Overrated
"I will stop you to go forward" the portal watcher of Ulara said to me, the main protagonist. Of course what she meant was "I won't let you pass."
Above is just one hilarious example of the terrible dialogue in this game. The dialogue is consistently this bad throughout the entire game, demeaning the characters, story, and entire game to amateur level.
Dungeons are the heart of this game's gameplay, which are long and tedious. Same areas are used in different locations with at least one battle in each area. The numerous battles and repetitious dungeons make the gameplay incredibly slow and dry.
Supposedly this game is well known for its cool battle quirks. This is true, almost everything you do in a battle is effected in some way by player performance. However I did not find this to be enjoyable. After hundreds of battles I was pleading for the game to automate my attacks. Repetition of button-timing and button-mashing mini games during battles became tiresome extremely fast.
Soundtrack was quite nice though, paralleling Final Fantasy series quality. This however doesn't make up for the rest of this mess.
With poor story and gameplay, this game is not something I enjoyed playing.

wow
Just the best. This and Final Fantasy 7 are fighting for the spot in best RPG when this one is just a one shot game with no sequals. but why is it so special? well because of Everything!!!!!!!!!! This game is absolutly amazing. It will have you playing for days days and more days for its 4 disc set the game is very lengthy. And the fighting style is FF style with a twist. The game is very interactive wich keeps it from getting very boring. Unlinke other games. the things you do in battle all have to do with interaction, its not just perssing the "attack" button and chosing a target anymore. You press attack and chose someone then you have to press X at the given times to do the most damage and get SP(spirit points i believe). And with attack items you repitevly press X to keep the attack going building damage. And when your in your special form your attacks are interactive as well but i wont get into that. The writing is great and the voice acting in some scenes are excelent. Its above perfect! A Must have!!!

Great Game Bad Glitch
I absolutely love this game. It is by far the best one for PS1 however for some reason my copy has a bad glitch after a boss fight on disc 2. Fight works great but when you try to continue you get a beutiful black screen. Have done all I can. No scratches, new game, bad glitch.

Great RPG
The Legend of Dragoon is a great RPG
(Role Playing Game). Though some critics would say it was Sony's poor attempt to make the typical RPG story/gameplay, others say that it was Sony's successful release before the arrival of the PS2.
To me, this game is one of my favorite games. It has a good story as well as memorable characters. The fighting system is based upon combo attacks, where you must hit the designated key at the right time to preform the attack and add additional damage when more hits are in the combo (obviously).
The game has beautiful environments. The cities, caves, woods, etc look great considering it being a PS1 title, all unique.
If you are a fan of RPG's or just oldschool games in general, it's definately worth playing.
