With Grandia II, I got more of it in GIII and other games 7th mentioned sense, so it's easy to see where things went. On Persona 4 Golden, it took a system I wasn't initially fond of and made me enjoy it by the end.
When it comes down to it, though, there's a lot with Persona 4 Golden that I'm still not sold on. The instadeath, though manageable, is annoying. That said, P4G helped out with that through social link boosts.
You know what, I've changed my mind while writing this post. For taking a system I didn't like in Persona 3 and slow improving it to greatness in P4 Golden, my vote goes to...
Vote: Persona 4 Golden
PS: Well, as I was making this grand, glorious post, Trent came along and made my vote invalid. :P

If you're referring to my questions, I haven't played Grandia II, but I have played the other games I listed. I'm trying to gauge whether or not I should buy a copy of Grandia II and play it, not state that Child of Light is better than a game I never played. Even after it won all of these matches and made it to the finals, the discussions in the Grandia II threads haven't been detailed enough to make it clear to me how it compares to similar games, how unique it is, or if it's still worth playing today if I have already played recent games that use its system. It tends to get compared to Grandia III, which I also haven't played.
Grandia III might have a better battle system (not making that statement myself), but the story in Grandia III is so awful.

Aerial Combos FTW. Seriously.
The story was in the top three worst of all times in games that I actually played, but I beat this sucker because the combat is just THAT good. As far as which one to play? Play as many Grandia games as you can
