Great compilation of classic jrpgs Phantasy Star is a great series of classic jrpgs, and you can have all of them for less than 30 usd. Now, you need to have a ntsc/j ps2, but since they are really cheap now, I see no reason to buy one if u live in Europe or America.
Also, this compilation gives you the option to play the games in English, which is great, and also has several display optios for those of us with LCD or Plasma screens.
It contains PS I throug IV, and it even throws in an extragame in the form of GameGear's Phantasy Star Gaiden (which is also the only game that comes in japanese only)
