 One of the best Strategy RPG's everJun 19, 2002
By Richard Schirmer
"huge nerd"
This game is responsible for me losing more sleep than almost any other. This game really isn't for everyone though. It's more of a passive RPG, you don't personally go out and do the fighting (you can, it's just not a good idea), you send out constructed units of troops to do the fighting with the enemy units. Terrain, weight, time of day and equipment all play a part in moving and battles. While you can not directly influence the course of the individual battles, you can decide which troops go to either the front or back rows (different attacks depending on the row), and decide what the unit will aim for (attack the strongest, weakest, leader or best). You can support them with Tarot cards (single use magic spells) that you pick up by liberating cities. All in all, one of the most innovative and all around fun games I've ever played, and it got improved for the Playstation. Worth practically whatever you have to pay for it.

AwesomeNov 24, 2001

This game is the remake of the old snes classic. It is so much better than the old snes version. In this remake, the graphics were improved and new characters were added. This game will give you hours of entertainment.

 Ogre Battle: The March of the Black QueenJan 22, 2009

I like these type of stragety/RPGs. Had fun as it was something that did not last one week before ending like some of the more recent games.

 Massacre of a masterpieceMay 20, 2010
By Deric Northrup
"RPG KING/ZOMBIE FANATIC"
There's several things I want to say about this "limited edition" ogre battle. It is "like" the super nes versioin the way that you still control the battle from over head and you get the tarot cards etc...but they "updated" the graphics and make some changes in the way the battle map is displayed, gave the characters a little battle action movement, meaning: they give the fighters a little more swing in their sword and the spells have a little more action in them. You are also given the option of watching the battle action movement of character (how they swing etc) different formations for your "stock" including listing by str, agi, ali, charisma and more. That sounds great right? not so much and here's why...
They (meaning Atlus) changed the size ratio and now the map won't your TV screen, the game lags and sputters (you can watch the battle curser aka sword sputter like a old nissan across the battle map, the reputation bar is so skinny and tall you cant really see where you stand in reputation cuase it looks like you are at neutral at all times. The time it takes to save or load your game is ridiculous! Several times I thought the game had frozen when it was really just saving. There's also the loading time to each map which is also too long and when you are searching for treasure and the game keeps giving you baddies and you need to reset/reload the game you can plan on taking up a second hobby to fill in the time to reload the game AND the area map. They changed the intro music to the game and it now sounds like tactics ogre?? Identity crisis? Hey Atlus maybe you should recall all the people from "quest" and then redo the game. THE BEST part instead of the original ogre battle where the troops would take whatever land movement they were best suited for and come for other towns and your troops, NOW The enemies go straight to your base???!!!??? What the hey! Just stand at your base and defend it. No strategy required.
I call this atlus " Perfecting the already perfect". If you want to play ogre battle re-buy a SNES and get the real deal.

 NiftyAug 14, 2002
By Jamie Jeffords
An interesting game, but a better weekend rent than a purchase. It gets way too predictable once you get to be a decent player.
