Wild Arms is a series I've been curious about for awhile, but for some reason, I've yet to play even one of them. The general consensus seems to be that the first game (original release, not the remake) is the best one, but what do you guys think of the rest of the series, especially 3, 4, and 5? Roughly speaking, are any of them on the level of other classic PS2 JRPGs like Shadow Hearts: Covenant and Persona 3? |

I wish I was of some help. But I only played Wild Arms 2 when I was a kid and admittedly didn't get very far before I gave it back to my cousin. I remember really liking it, but I can't give a review of it, since that was ages ago. I do have 2-4 but haven't had time to play them. Though I will eventually get 1 and 5 to finish off the set. |

If your not worried about graphics then I say go for it. Wild ARMs is an classic JRPG that really shouldn't be compared to Shadow Hearts or Persona but more a kin to a game that Tri Ace would have developed. I would say if your going to play Wild ARMs get the original. Wild ARMs: Alter Code F on the PS2 is not as good as some of the game has been altered for the worst. They experiment a lot with the game mechanics in future releases and some aren't as good as others but all in all it is a solid series. |

I only ever played the first one, but I really enjoyed it. Neat mechanics, awesome music. Good stuff. |

Well, at least I know the first one is good :p I'm thinking at some point, I'll just grab that one and Wild Arms 3, which also seems relatively good. Dig the art style, too. |
