Lunar: The Silver Star [SegaCD]
Lunar: The Silver Star Story [Sega Saturn]
Lunar: The Silver Star Story Complete [PSX]
Never played it. (PLAY IT!!!)
Guys can't really do kid voices and most child stars don't bother with VA work. They want to star in cereal commercials
Like 90% of all kid voices are done by women, both in Japan and the U.S. Hell, women even play adult male voices like Son Goku in the Japanese version of DBZ. Naruto is played by a girl in both the Japanese and English versions. Its a weird industry...
True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...
This is one of my favorite games of all time. I chose Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete over Lunar: The Silver Star.
Like Kawaii Ryűkishi, I prefer the music and the darker tone of the original over the music and lighter tone of the remake, but I think that the remake made a few changes that helped involve the player emotionally. Allowing Luna to stay in the party was a good decision, and this is the type of change that I look for in a remake. As someone who played the original a few times in childhood, I always imagined that Luna would have reservations about staying behind and that made the scene where she changes her mind at the last minute instead all the more worthwhile.
I wish that the remake of Lunar: Eternal Blue was altered in a similar manner as I found it a little too similar to the original for my liking. In one case, a scenario where Ghaleon attacks and crystallizes Hiro leaves the player in control of Lucia as the party splits up. I thought this was a good scenario, but it was left out of the remake.

This, as well as Lunar 2: Eternal Blue, will always have a special place in my heart. Both games are absolutely amazing and two of my all time fav RPGs. Ghaleon is just plain awesome in both as well, and one of my fav game villains.
...and I prefere the PSX version, since that's the only one I've played.
I've only ever played the Sega CD version but, it's a great game. I still hum the song Luna sings sometimes.
Well, this thread was timely.
Remake time.
Until I read this thread, I had totally forgotten that I own and had nearly beaten this version at some point. I enjoyed it a lot at the time, but the fact that it was so immediately forgettable (compared to a thread full of fond memories) seems to speak volumes about its quality compared to the original.Originally Posted by Kentarou
I remember playing a Lunar game on the GBA. I really, really, REALLY liked that game! Whenever someone would ask what I was playing, I'd reply "Oh, nothing, just the best game ever!"
Little did I know I was playing what is commonly hailed as the absolute worst version of that game.
Yes, I read about that on another site. I have not seen a translation for the article and I wonder about what storyline changes this one will have over the original. The good thing about the remakes of this game is that they always tweak slight details about the storyline. For example, where will Nash first join the party this time?

methinks it's about time I bought myself a PSP. LOL
First Dissidia, now this...
I gotta admit though, I'm REALLY getting pulled into the story at the end, I'm actually getting emotionally charged for the final battle(s) (SPOILER)after Ghaleon uses Luna/Althena to blow Vane from the sky.

I've played up to the Nanza barrier on the SegaCD version now and I have to admit I'm enjoying it a lot. The darker music and feel of the game suits me much more than the PSX remake.
...
More media from Famitsu. It actually looks all right, considering you'd think they'd just be trying to bleed some sales from an old game with minimal effort, as with Square's Final Fantasy ports.
RPGFan is reporting that this variation of the game will have updated graphics, cutscenes, and sound and a new scenario highlighting past events. This might be a scenario played from the perspective of Dyne or Ghaleon. Please remember this thread if you come across any new information regarding this upcoming game.

Man, I liked Silver Star Story Complete, but the music in that game just pissed me off. It honestly sounded like some kid's show or something. Now I want to listen to the soundtrack for the original Sega CD version. Based on how you guys described it, I'm intrigued!
1up.com had an article up for a short time with some actual images of the remake for PSP coming up, and I must say, I like it. I will see if I can scrounge up the images on the net and share them on here for you all to see.
Check these out! </Nash>
