Lunar Threads

Thanks for the reply. I'll be looking around the web for those tracks (if I can find any). Of course I plan on buying whatever I happen to like. I'd just like to sample some stuff before I take a plunge into buying something.

That's the original name of Rival Schools, right? Project Justice is the true sequel to Rival Schools, released on the DC. Great game, hard to find, moderately expensive, but worth every penny if you're into wacky fighting games. Ebay is your friend here. It used to go for approximately $60-70 USD,...

I'm currently playing Lunar:SSSC. Figured I could use a challenge, so I'm playing with these handicaps: Original equipment only. Items other than equipment can be used, only if found. So no shopping. So far, I'm seeking the Red Dragon.

It would help a little to know what sort of thing you like. I mean, I have a bunch of game soundtracks and some of them get a lot of use, but that's usually (though not always) games I've actually played. So I'd expect you to favor soundtracks to things you're familiar with as well. Also, are we ta...

I know someone living overseas who can get a hold of some games, game/anime soundtracks. Can anyone recommend some import merchandise? Here's what I have so far: -Guilty Gear X2#Reload Japanese soundtrack -Guilty Gear X2#Reload Korean Soundtrack -Valkyrie Profile Original Soundtrack -Valkyrie Profil...

I choose 'none of the above'. Ghaleon is a total dweeb. He is a child...and I am his father. *Runs from Ghaleon, and prays to Althena that Garbage-Can-Lid Shield from SSSC will protect*

I'd have to say EB Ghaleon.

Where are you from Brave? That gundam kit is pretty spiffy. If you ever travel to Japan or Korea, those mech kits go for dirt cheap. And the shops are everywhere! Whenever my mother used to travel to Korea when I was young, she'd bring back some kits. Those were good days. Since you're into mechs, y...

If anyone wants to post their collection, feel free to do so. It'd be interesting to see which games people own. Don't be shy folks. I want to see some games. You say you're a Tri-Ace fanatic that owns 90% of Tri-Ace based merchandise? Then show it off! Is your room overflowing with Lunar parapherna...

In the brief time I had a Gameshark (and for the Genesis, the Game Genie), I found them interesting. You're assuming that the use of the Gameshark is to bypass the difficulty of the game, to get something more easily than it should be had. For me, it was just fun and interesting to go to a specific...

I think the biggest problem with your list is how it's presented. If it were just presented as a list of personal favorites, or even as "I think these are some of the best RPGs out there" I'm not so sure it would have gotten the same reactions. But when you have it as "games every RP...

I can understand where you're coming from. I definately hope I didn't come across as combative, and I doubt anyone else on the board does either. At least, I hope noone thinks you're a FF7 fanboy, as I certainly didn't take it that way. I just had beef with your list specifically, and the thought t...

And once again you're missing the point. You cannot make a list of games that came out post-FF7 to support your claim that FF7 somehow has credit for them coming out and include installments of series that were established well before then. People didn't buy Zelda 5 because they liked FF7, they bou...

If you're a fan of mecha, you've got to watch TEKKAMAN: BLADE! I'm by no means a mecha fan, but unless you've seen Tekkaman, you haven't experienced all that mech anime has to offer. It is a very old series, the animation sucks, and it's sometimes boring to watch. The story is what keeps it going, ...

By now, I've probably been pegged as some Final Fantasy 7 psycho, nutcase, fanboy with too much Final Fantasy in his brain. FF7 isn't even in my top 10 of favorite RPGS. I'm just defending a great game. I'll take Valkyrie Profile, BoF3, Alundra, Star Oceans, and Lunars any day of the week over FF7.

You could make a case for some of the RPGs Sonic mentioned, but saying Skies of Arcadia, Lunar and Grandia aren't in a list of "best of" genre, while games like Breat of Fire IV are, that's just absurd. Opinions are opinions sure, but Skies, Lunar and Grandia are pretty well recognized as...

There are also other fundamental flaws, like "Zelda series (N64)". Zelda's just had its 20th anniversary, it was well-established before FF7, and the most RPG-like Zelda was in...1987? Citing its continued existence as proof that the RPG genre is alive and kicking is ridiculous; Zelda is ...

I resent this list, because there are several games on the list that I didn't haven't played, and several games that I would have included. It seems like many of your judgments depend on what you've played. That and you're assuming that FF7 is this great nexus of RPG playing. As an example of the g...

Speaking of which, if anything, the main Final Fantasy series has been neglected for years now. FFX was the last standard Final Fantasy game that wasn't online. True, there was FFX-2, but that was extremely short, and definately not worth the 50 bucks I paid for it. I'm actually looking forward to ...

*WARNING* LONG REPLY ALERT! Wow, I'm surprised! This forum is alive and kicking after all. I'm surprised this topic has seen such interest. There have been 3 FFs per platform if you don't count side stories and spin offs, which Square has been making since the NES days (the original Seiken Densetsu...
