    Hell yeah!! Especially seiken densetsu 4/ Legend of Mana. That was my favorite of the series!!

    Heres a guide for you people just in case your wondering which is which...

    Seiken Densetsu = Final Fantasy Adventures
    Seiken Densetsu 2 = Secret of Mana
    Seiken Densetsu 3 = This one wasn't released in america so the names the same I guess
    Seiken Densetsu 4 = legend of Mana

    Just incase your wondering, Sword of mana is the remake to Seiken Densetsu/ FFA. Not a full Seiken Densetsu 5...

    Final Fantasy Adventure. Singular, you know.

    As for the original title, although it was commonly known as Seiken Densetsu, the full title also contained the phrase "Final Fantasy Gaiden." You know how the top of the Metal Gear Solid logo has the words "Tactical Espionage Action," but no one, not even the makers of the game, ever include that phrase in the title? It's like that.
    Seiken Densetsu 4 = legend of Mana
    The Japanese title was just "Seiken Densetsu: Legend of Mana." No number.

    And just for the record, its Japanese title was "Shinyaku Seiken Densetsu."

    Secret of Mana is one of my favorite games for the SNES. Powering up weapons and magic is strangely soothing.

    Secret of Mana was a pretty good game. Having a multitap and two other friends make the experience of the game that much better. Mostly I only played it with one other person, though.

    I'm not very fond of Secret of Mana. I've never liked it very much, but Seiken Densetsu 3, Sword of Mana and Legend of Mana are three of the greatest RPGs of all time. SD3 for its class/job system. SoM for its storyline and battle system. LoM for its innovation (quest system).

    I'm looking forward to a Mana PS2 or PS3 installment...I've had enough of 2D graphics too...They should try to move onto the 3rd dimension, even if it results in a step back in the series...

    Present technology would allow for a perfectly beautiful 3D Seiken Densetsu game. The only problem I can imagine is that Brownie Brown has zero experience developing 3D games, so they might not be able to take advantage of that technology. They could probably get some guidance from the main Square guys, though.

    I would be really disappointed if the Mana series went 3D. I mean, eww.

    And then there is Death

    If I wanted a 3D action RPG, I'd be playing Kingdom Hearts.
