When I saw the bridge breaking I was thinking I'd finally spotted something that was in TSS but not SSS... then I realized I'd been getting SSS confused with Legend, which had boats rather than bridges. Oh well.

Damon's Spire sure looks nice, though.

The game's getting a good amount of coverage all things considered. FAR more than I had initially expected.

This is quite nice. Can't wait for my copy to ship next month (gleefully rubs hands together)

I hope people start posting videos... I'm waiting for the english version so it'll be nice to see what everything's really like.

Also, Magic Emperor and Xenobia have their official arts up now. Xenobia looks good but I'm still more a Royce guy :lol:

I really like all of the little subscreen icons.

Such a shame that for as beautiful as this remake is looking, it could have been even more amazing on a current console and not a handheld. This series needs to Digivolve already, because it's long overdue.

You have the backing of at least one other original Lunar-L member.

Man, that brings back memories. Back when e-mail lists were actually popular. KF

I don't know about you but, I think the 2d graphics have a charm that 3d lost. I enjoy looking at high definition sprites in full color. In fact in most games I would prefer it. (except for simulator games like FPS, RTS, MMO, Space)

Although I have to admit, adventure games have made the transition to 3d beautifully. A great example is Mario 64 and games like Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Banjo Kazooie, and Jax and Daxter.

Kiz, I even have a Lunar airbrushed shirt with Silver Phoenix on the back of it from one of members. Of course he did a horrible job with the phoenix, because it looks like a damn chicken!

I was showing one of my friends the Lunar I&II Artbook, and the SSS Artbook today. Man that SSS Artbook totally blows compared to the original artbook. I wonder how much someone would pay for my pristine Eternal Blue mousepad if I were to sell it? I have a bunch of untouched videogame t-shirts in plastic that I have saved over the years. I'm not even sure what some of them are without opening the plastic, but I saw one of them was an original Grandia shirt.

Anyway, about the L-List... That was really the catalyst of Lunar Fandom in the day, and it was extremely sad when the list disappeared. Some of us would Lunar roleplay on mIRC. Lunar needs a rebirth of popularity, because it is a series of substance and story wise it had such potential to keep growing. Game Arts should have focused on continuing the series, and look at how Grandia has even de-railed. Grandia is a game that should get the remake treatment, and I only ever played my Japanese Limited Edition import so I couldn't appreciate the story without understanding it. I will not play the bastardized PS One version even with it being in English.
