I can see why this remake bombed in Japan. It's basically the previous remake with new graphics and shorter battles. I got bored of it very quickly.

How about for someone who's never played Lunar and wants to start? The pre-order goodies look awesome. Too bad so many games are coming out in the next few months. I'm almost broke. :[

In addition to the boredom, could another reason it could've bombed in Japan be because this is like the fifth or sixth remake of the effing game? Talk about keeping the goddamn dream alive.

If you never played one, and don't have a problem with obnoxious loading times, then you might want to check it out.

Wait- they've made more than one remake and the game still has long loading times?

But no, loading times are not a big issue.

No, this particular version has long loading times. The other ones are fine.

This is the third remake of this game. The first version of Lunar: Silver Star was released in 1992 for the Sega CD, with a sequel, Eternal Blue, following a few years later. Next came the Saturn remakes, which were ported to the PS1. Then there was the GBA remake of Silver Star, and then this one.

There is nothing I want more than to open up the package for Lunar while others are around and seeing several playing cards with scantily clad anime girls on it.



Does anyone know if this is the same soundtrack that came with the Working Designs edition?

I don't know the answer to your question, but the soundtrack is what I'm most interested in. That and I think the LE also comes with a poster. Or at least what looked like a poster to me.

I think I'll end up buying the LE of the game, even though I already have both games on the PS1. I have more money than sense it seems.

I still have my Ghaleon puppet from when Working Designs released the game.

I've seen plenty of those puppets on ebay over the years, but haven't bought one yet. I would like to have one though.

Okay, this game does not have long loading times. What it has is long fade to black transitions, which is just as bad.

I thought it was a poster, but I'm not sure anymore. :\ (The thing behind the game.)
