Favorite game(s) released by Atlus

Look down toward the middle/bottom, as I'm referring to the games that Atlus U.S.A. has published.

Funny thing about that list is, I could SWEAR that Atlus released the first Ogre Battle on the SNES, but it's not listed, even though all the other Ogre Battle games are on there. That was my first (and favorite) Atlus game.

So, a LOT of you probably have played a LOT of the games listed, so which are your favorites?

Growlanser Generations

Huh. Of all the games they published I only played Riviera: The Promised Land on GBA. What a terrific waste of time.

Hey, Persona 3 looks cool though.

Of the ones I played, I'm going with Disgaea mostly because I didn't really play Nocturne enough.

I don't think Atlus published Ogre Battle in the US, I think someone else did. I don't know for sure though.

I liked Thousand Arms alot.

pretty sure Enix did at the time.

my favorites: Ogre Battle Limited Edition, Tactics Ogre, Ogre Battle 64, Wizardry Tale of the Forsaken Land, Thousand Arms

I guess it's a toss-up between Disgaea and Persona 3. Though I've always wanted to play Tail Concerto.

SMT3: Nocturne. Easily.

Re: Favorite game released by Atlus

Either Disgaea, SMT3: Nocturne, or Yggdra Union.

Nocturne and Persona 3.

Pfffft I say more than one pick shouldn't be allowed.

More than one John Mora shouldn't be allowed.


I just bought Etrian Odyssey II and Rondo of Swords, both for the DS, yesterday, which is what prompted this thread.

As for my fave(s), I'd have to go with anything in the Ogre Battle series, although within the past few years or so, I've been collecting a lot of Atlus games because they are made in such limited quantities, and you never know which ones are going to be the in-demand, hard to find ones a few years from now.

In my collection right now, I own Growlanser Heritage of War (PS2), Disgaea (PS2), the two I just mentioned, Tactics Ogre (GBA), Yggdra Union (GBA), Contact (DS), Odin Sphere (PS2), Persona 3 (PS2), and Arcana Heart (PS2).

I've also owned the SNES and N64 Ogre Battles in the past. So what would be another good Atlus game that I should be on the lookout for that I wouldn't need to pay an arm and a leg for?

Apparently, the only Atlus games I've played are Odin Sphere and Wizardry: Tale of the Forsaken Land.
So, Odin Sphere it is.

EDIT: Actually, I've played Skygunner and Tail Concerto, too. Those were good. Still, Odin Sphere's probably my favorite, if only for the amazing art.

More than one John Mora shouldn't be allowed.

Thankfully it's not!

But honestly, once people start listing off more than one game, it stops being the Favorite Atlus Game thread and turns into the Just List All the Atlus Games You Like thread.

The only game they developed that I've played is Persona.

So, uh, Persona.
