Turn Based Video Games?

Hi everyone, I have played final fantasy x on the ps2 and am playing final fantasy III on the ds right now. I love this sort of turn based game... but have trouble finding others that play like these two (for example final fantasy x2 was horrible I hated it as I found having to jump and climb walls obnoxious). I have a wii, ps3 and ds... can you recommend games with similar game play (I am one of thoes who spends many hours just leveling up... I am considering Final Fantasy tatics for the ds but would like something with a little bit of a different story line. I would like find something also with the same turn based fighting style)? Thank you guys in advance!!!

    Here are a few that use a very similar battle system to Final Fantasy 3 and 10 -

    Digital Devil Saga 1 and 2 ,Fantasy 1 - 10, the Suikoden series, Breath of Fire 1 - 4, Wild Arms series, Xenogears, Xenosaga series, Dragon Warrior Series, Chrono Cross and Chrono Trigger.

    You also might want to check out some tactical turned based games such as Final Fantasy Tactics, Disgaea Hour of Darkness, Advance Wars series, Tactics Ogre and the Fire Emblem series. Oh and if you can find a copy of X-Com UFO Defense try that out (PC or Playstation 1), it's older but still probably the best turn based combat game ever made.

    Source(s): I love turned based RPGs and I've played most of them.
