Lunar Threads

What anime today looks like what Lunar 2's animation should look like if remade? I can't think of much at the moment, a lot of animes are looking plainly colored, as in, much less shadows and just plain colors. (Tales of games come to mind) http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--I3fKoBG...

I like text, because that way I make sure not to miss ANY words at all. But a voice acting addition is nice. John Truitt did a good job too. As for being critical on animation ... for a 1998 production, the animation successfully stands the test of time. It's 2015, and the quality in anime has hardl...

Luckily, I've gotten a bit far! Things I have to say... 1. The part of the intro that's spoken in the English PS1 version is just text in Japanese! 2. Temzin mentioned brutal music slowdown when going in and out of battles? I've not noticed this. Maybe VERY SLIGHT slowdown, which is not the same as ...

When Grandia II came out on Steam recently, I saw some comments that the game had some of the same problems as its old PC release still left in there, which I think GungHo patched quickly after. Don't take this info for granted since I've never played any version of Grandia II, but it MIGHT be that ...

Ahhhh ok, you mean the Saturn Lunars and Grandia / Dreamcast Grandia II. Of course they wouldn't do that :P Emulating the Saturn has never been done before on another console (that I know of). It was done on PC though, and requires great processing power. The Saturn is infamous for being a complicat...

Temzin wrote:Sadly, straight PS re-releases are a lot easier than getting the proper version on PSN, as we've also seen with Grandia I and II. Still, it's nice to see it around!

...the proper version? something that isn't a straight PS re-release?
What exactly do you mean?

But the fans might get angry at another Silver Star Story if given RIGHT NOW. However, things could go better depending on what order the games come in. Lunar 2 Eternal Blue's PSN release has had like near 100% positive feedback. Realistically, they will probably re-release Lunar 1 on PSN. After tha...

The results are Metal Gear Solid Final Fantasy VII (Ah duhhhhhhhhhhhhhh who was expecting anything else???? actually im surprised it didn't beat Metal Gear Solid) and 2 Crash Bandicoot. I didn't expect Lunar to be top in that list, and I don't care anymore since we've gotten the japanese PSN Lunar 2...

But it just makes me wonder... how would they do the manual if they bring the USA version? Also, that's ho...

You started MML2, but put it down soon after? Why? Yes you should go back to it! It depends though. To me, Legends 2 is slightly inferior. The gameplay is better and more complex and stuff, but............ Something about the story felt a bit off. Things felt a bit "sci fi Final Fantasy" t...

I got Super Mario Maker at launch. In truth, i've always been a big fan of the original Super Mario Bros since before I knew how to speak. When computers and romhacks became really popular, I got to make a romhack with modified Super Mario Bros levels, which I would then make my friends play for tor...

In an ideal set-up where I could do anything (Maybe similar to what Alunissage mentioned with split TV!) I would have someone play the USA version while I play the Japanese version... but one of us has to be fluent in Japanese, so we can catch little differences. Though there's already a page for th...

I don't mind, as long as the story and characters are loveable, and the music is memorable, and the graphics aren't choppy or rushed, the gameplay mechanic itself could be simple and be very fun.

Also something to note is that Sept 15, 1995 is the day Lunar 2 came out in USA, Sega CD!
This japanese PSN release seems to be a 20th Anniversary celebration :)
But why celebrate the USA release and not Japanese? Maybe they are that happy about WD?

. For some reason we have three or four PS3s in a row under the TV, along with a Wii, WiiU, PS4, and maybe a 360 :shock: Shoot. I wish the PS4 had a PS1 emulator, like the PS3 does. Why wouldn't it? If the Vita can, why can't PS4? I understand that a PS4 can't play PS3 games (a PS3 is a huge system...

I have a japanese PSN account. They always send me emails of new stuff. I saw Lunar 2 in the email when I had just woken up, still in bed, and im like "HAHA wow I must be seeing things!" Then I realized i'm well awake and I still see Lunar 2 there. I'm like "Is this a joke? Like what ...

Gamewise, there isn't much point in my buying a download of a game I already have two copies of (three, no, four if I count the Saturn release). But I probably should get it to indicate support, not to mention the usefulness of having it on a portable, and not having to fish out the older hardware....

Great! I just bought it too. And would buy again when it comes to USA, duh. It takes 1gb +. I can't fit this in my current memory stick. Darn me! *goes out to buy a bigger one* You know what sucks a bit? I want to thank GameArts (or GungHo now?) Remember those emails people sent to info@gamearts.co....

I've said this once in the last few minutes, but this just took the cake - you've made my day. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: My whole rest of the year is made and more. Lunar 2 has seen NOTHING since like year 2000, videogame related at least I think? What this also me...

Guys guys guys gaise...

Check it out. Lunar 2 has been added against all the tough odds!
What this really means: Japan is getting PSN re-release of Lunar 2. How freaking unlikely is that???
I'm so happy!!
