Game Arts has released today “Lunar: Eternal Blue” digitally on Japanese PSN for PS3 and PS Vita for 617 yen.
Even if the Sega franchise strikes you as dabbling in old school gaming, it is well worth a look at the systems. Some of the original Sega CD (or Mega-CD in Europe) games have an astounding amount of appeal that lovers of all things gaming should consider giving a try.
Silpheed, Android Assault, Lords of thunder, Solfeace, flying squadron. That's why I own Mega cd.
Maybe one day Konami won’t be lame and they can release a Sega CD collection with Snatcher.
the only problem with owning a Sega CD is the hardware is less than reliable nowadays. I have an Analogue Mega SG which is an updated version of a genesis along with a Mega SD cartridge which allows me to play Sega CD games off of it. I have the entire Genesis / Sega CD library on the cart and it's great. Although many of these games do not hold up well, lol.
To be honest I own the original tech, but i also have a raspberry pi build with all Mega cd games I want. So the old tech doesn't die.
Every so often, a character in a video game - be it hero, villain, or NPC - will need to hide their identity. Maybe they’re infiltrating an enemy compound, attending a fancy ball, or just need to rent a motorbike. Sometimes their disguises are convincing, and sometimes they are 'so bad they're good'. Game Luster's Tim Jewett looks at ten of the best (worst?) examples.
think youve missed the best one of all! using chameleon in dark souls to troll other players....had some great fun with this
Old-school role-playing fans will probably remember this name with a great fondness but unfortunately, nowhere near enough people played it back then.
I was hoping that it would have come to the ps3 with the ps1 classics but never did :(
One of my favorite from the Saturn/PS1 era. I'm not sure a sequel is needed. If they could capture the look and feel of the first I would love it. I'm not sure todays audience would receive it the same way. Lunar was very linear by design, but told the story very well. Story driven games don't seem to be as successful today which is a shame.
Well just look at the indie rpg's on steam, most of them seem to do quite well and to my knowledge they are all pretty much story based.
Sadly it did, it was Dragons Song and it was awful. But I agree that it should receive another game for the current gen.
Loved collecting that suit of armor (must be upgraded to be worth a damn.) and the Cockatrice.
Lunar: The Silver Star- This was my first JRPG that I really fell in love with and still play to this day. The Characters, Story, Music and Cut-scenes were wonderful. I have this on the Sega CD, PS1 and the PSP.
Lunar Eternal Blue- was another great new story in the Lunar universe. I was always hoping for a Directors Cut similar to Lunar Silver Stary Harmony.
I wanted this to be a huge series, like the scale of Final Fantasy, too bad that never happened.
