Just offhand...

Legend of Dragoon
Legend of Legaia

And then idk, maybe Kartia. Outside of FF, the ps1's jrg selection hadn't amazed me the way the SNES did.

Then my follow up question, as I am non-American and was never thought this or bothered to look it up. What were the reasons for why those 4 Presidents were chosen for Mt. Rushmore?

Edit: Quick Google suggests it is the first President, Third and two with important Legacies.

Which makes me go 1.King's Field, 2.Suikoden or Persona, 3.SotN and 4.FF7.

It's who the artist wanted to sculpt. Washington and Jefferson make a lot of sense, Lincoln is credited with keeping the nation together (despite the fact his presidency was why it broke up in the first place), and then everybody likes Teddy.

The phrase usually means either the best of something or the most influential. Jefferson is arguably the most influential president in US history, considering he was the first Secretary of State, second VP, third president, and BOTH current political parties were founded based on the principals of the party he founded.

It's worth noting that Washington as a politician was kinda eh; his legacy was more as a general. And to some extent the fact that Washington wasn't a stronger hand is why the US almost immediately splintered into two political parties (the federalists and democratic-republicans) despite his dislike his parties and factionalism.
