What is the name of this PS1 game?

As I've aged, I've become more interested in nostalgia! Back when I was but a wee child, there was a 3D PS1 RPG that I really liked. For the life of me I can't recall the title, but, and I know how useless this is, it involved airships, pirates, etc...
There was a continent that was destroyed. I remember tectonic catastrophe. This game also appeared on the Sega Saturn. Please help me figure out what this game was called, as I'll pay hand over fist to go through it again and attack E-Bay until it dies.

Best answer: I also thought about Grandia, as well as maybe Tales of Destiny (though they are all a blur, plot-wise.) Here appears to be a list of all the JRPGs for PlayStation. Anything looking familiar?

Skies of Arcadia kinda fits your bill, but it was Saturn/Gamecube.

Lunar? Don't know much about the plot or other details but it was on Saturn and then PS1.

Before you shell out good money for an old game, you could pre-play it online (probably), just to see if it's everything you remembered.

Ah, totally overlooked the Saturn part. My vote's for Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete.

Dragon Warrior 7? It's fairly obscure and the plot involves ships, pirates, and disappearing/reappearing continents.

Response by poster: It was a very minor title, one without a wide release, from a minor publisher/production studio. Nothing major like Chrono Cross or Grandia.
Thanks to that JRPG list, I've found the game!
BEHOLD!

So, did you find a copy? While cleaning out my basement, I just found my old copy. My RPG playing days are over, sadly (or at least on hold for awhile) and I'm about 99.9% sure I'll never need this again. I'm happy to mail it to you. Send me a PM if you'd like it.

(I realized after posting this that I assumed you're in the US. Sorry if you're not - not sure I could swing shipping in that case. And sorry for the assumption. I'm super sleep-deprived and a bit foggy at times.)
