Ahh, yes. I remember playing Guardian's Crusade like it was yesterday.Wait...it was yesterday. I originally bought this game when i was 9, and now, 6 years later, I played it again, and was surprisedto see that it was more intriguing than some of the rpgs made today. Sure the graphics look like they were only a step up from the NES games, because they practically were, but its the substance that counts. The gameplay was great, the story has to be the best I have found yet. Turn-based strategy isn't my favorite way to be the crap out of enemies, but in Guardian's Crusade the game actually gave you a chance. The storyline contained a lot of quirks and wasn't predictable, which is good for an rpg. Its perfect for those who are sick of the same old story, save the world AGAIN, save the girl AGAIN, find your true meaning in life and stop the intensely evil dude from creating an evil empire AGAIN. I seriously couldnt predict what was going to happen next, even when i started playing again. So the story was first:

You're a knight, and you are sent on a small errand by the mayor to go bring a letter to a neighboring town. On the way back you run into some little pink thing that follows you. Then the mayor tells you to go dump it in a cave, and you do, then you go back for it blah blah blah. Then you come across the pink thing sleeping in a nest, and end up having to beat the crap outta some bird. Once you do, you grab a gemwhich plays a big part in the story) and start your quest. I liked how Guardian's Crusade would tie you up in many different things. ex. you're on a boat, which runs into a storm, and you fall off and wake up on an island. Then you have to go liberate the pink thing and you're on your merry way. This piece of the story could have been left out, along with much more, but the game has it anyway. These unpredictable events are what made the game, in my eyes, way better than many of todays rpgs. Overall, those who are looking for a great rpg, and dont mind the graphics, should look into Guardian's Crusade and give it a shot.
