Chrono Cross had a very good battle system,and I also liked Suikoden II,six characters at the same time was awesome!and also,the brutally difficult Shin MegamiTensei III:nocturne and Digital Devil Saga which had you looking to cover for your weaknesses because if you don't you'd die in two turns:),I noticed the lack of mentioning of good battle systems like the shadow hearts,the make it or break it judgement ring will put you on your toes,but I'm surprised that there are a lot of people who liked FFXII battle system:shock:,cause I don't dig the idea of real time battle system,but if I had to take my pick,I'd choose Resonance of Fate,I thought it was revolutionary:D
