Since I only own & played 3-5...

I say my favorite is: 3 & 5


4 is definitely the worst one for the PS2...

First of all I LOVE ALL Suikoden series...
but if I'm going to pick the best, then I'll choose (of course) Suikoden 2..
every-single-thing in 2, it's a REAL Suikoden thingy.

-2nd is Suikoden 1
I didn't care about the graphic, or how old and ancient this game would
be..suikoden 1 deserved to be the Runner up..

-3rd is Suikoden 3
-4th is Suikoden 5
-5th is Suikoden 4
-6th is Suikoden Tactics
..
And since I'd never played Suikogaiden 1 and 2, i'm not add it to the list....

hard to choose :unsure:
2 was great but 3 was better story wise the gameplay was just a major turn-off 5 had the best and the hardest to recruit 108
haven't played 4 and 1 though :cry:

tough choice but i'm going for the first one. not the best in every thing but it has a great feel for me without getting tedious at times. i would have said 2 but the whole Clive time limit and the running around like an idiot to recruit Hix and Tengaar got on my nerves a bit. especially since either Hix was blind or he was ditsier than Viki

Eventhough everyone's favourite is 2 (mine as well)
I'd vote for 3 and 4 actually (:
Sure Suikoden 4 had kinda like bad graphics and all but like to me the story is pretty good as it links to Suikoden Tactics as well and all that!
Plus, Rune of Punishment and Lazlo is soooooo cool! (to me) :D

I would have to go with Suikoden 2 hands down, it was at it's best in the franchise, and i'm currently playing tierkreis and am very pleasently surprised at the quality in a handheld. it would be number three behind the first one.

Suikoden 2 is the best, hands down. Beyond that it gets gray. 1, 3 and 5 are all spectacular. I'd have to say 5 and 1 are basically the same (in terms of goodness) and 3 is slightly behind those two (VERY slightly behind) and i haven't finished 4 but it seems behind 3 by a decent margin.

I know everyone's a suiko 2 fanboy but I have the most love for Suikoden 3. The tri-story storytelling method is the most effective I've seen in a suikoden game of conveying the real messages of suikoden, that bad guy isn't always purely bad, that there's always a reason why they're doing terrible things and your enemy might be just as right as you are. Suikoden 2 came close by making Jowy such an identifiable character but S3 broke the mold, you played as both sides of the conflict even when the true enemies became apparent you got to play as them given certain requirements were met.

Also the battle system in S3 was innovative, it wasn't the same boring 2 rows of 3 you had actual battle formations and had to take actual strategy into account while fighting. I know the biggest dig I hear about S3 is how everyone hated the battle system mainly the area of effect spells like fire attacks hitting all of your characters that were close to the enemy, but I thought this added a level of realism not present in any other suikoden game. I always enjoyed fighting with Geddoe's team because it was a solid mix. I paired Gedoe and Aila, Joker and Jacques and Ace and Queen. First round I would cast my magic with Joker and Geddoe which left my long range units to attack and I would defend with Ace and Queen. Second round the spells hit and then I attacked with my melee units for cleanup. Tell me one other suikoden game where your battle strategy was that involved let alone that involved from the getgo. Also S3's formation system allowed Tank units to truly be useful. In other installments you have SoD's like Humphrey ultimate Tank units but you put them in a front row with other units and short of attaching a firefly rune there's no way to make sure that they take the brunt of the enemies damage. S3 you put Cecile in the front position in the right formation and sit back casting magic and long range attacks and even Thomas' become invincible.

Bottom line S3 thought outside the box and the game was fun and engaging. The characters were memorable and the storyline solid. I think it's hands down the best Suikoden in the series.

While I knew that Suikoden 2 would win this poll, and by and large it's hard for me to disagree primarily because it's basically flawless and has the cooking sidequest... I still went with Suikoden 3, the full circle conclusion with Luc, the thorough telling of the regional war, being able to see the Harmonian army in 3D was really exciting. All around amazing game, more flawed than 2, but I like it slightly better.
