Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

Digital Devil Saga on PS2. It's a favorite, easily outshines other SMT games in narrative, character development, and plot twists.

Yet I bring it up at a wedding reception and I'm the weirdo. Pfft.

Fantastic pair of games. I tried to share it with folks in the days before the Persona series really took off. Also great music ( the final dungeon's music progression in the first game is still firmly embedded in my memory )
