One of the best games I've ever played, but almost no one has heard of it. :/ One of the first releases on PS2. It was a sequel to the PC game Drakan: Order of the Flame.

Basically you're a female warrior/heroin named Rynn and you have a bond with a dragon named Arokh.

Plot from wikipedia since it explains it better than I would have. >>

This game takes place sometime after the events in Order of the Flame. Rynn and Arokh answer a call from the city of Surdana. Lady Myschala of Surdana asks for Rynn and Arokh's assistance. An evil race of three-faced beings known as the Desert Lords have begun rallying the monsters from around the world (similar to how the Dark Union did in Order of the Flame) and have begun enslaving humans. Around the world there exist four gateways that lead to the world where the dragon mother, Mala-Shae, and her brood have been slumbering since the Dark Wars. Only a Dragon of the Elder Breed can open the gates and this is why Rynn and Arokh (more specifically, Arokh) are needed to open these gates, so that the humans can once again bond with dragons and fight back against the Desert Lords. Along the way, the two of them must go on various side quests to accomplish goals leading them to the ultimate goal.

Also, Arokh gets different elemental breaths starting with fire of course, but also expands to other elements like darkness/vampiric, lightning, ice, and wind.

And yes, you can ride the dragon.

I played the PC version, and I have to say that I was severely disappointed by it. Controls were horrible, combat system was bad, and story was not very creative.

I dunno if anything was improved in the PS2 game tho.

I'll play Drakengard if I want this kinda experience.
You play with a man, a mute even!

I know the game on PS2. Have the demo laying around. Was reasonably interested, didn't end up on buying it.
