Star Ocean. The very first. This game never appears on any other platforms. The remakes they made for this game completely changed world exploration and major game systems, from combat to crafting. Now, I love the remakes and play them regularly, but this game in this form is trapped on a 30 year old console and deserves to be freed from its prison. This game is one of the first ARPGs ever made, but it's also one of the best in terms of threading together RPG and Action mechanics.
