Pier Solar may be released soon?!?

[Joe Redifer]

It's definitely not as good as the RPGs on the Neo Geo, so it is no wonder they are not impressed. 

[Arkhan]

Actually, the preorders were underpriced since they lost money on them.

ahhh... well I wonder why they said they were being sold at cost and weren't trying to profit, lol.

Good game makers, bad marketers, methinks

[Mathius]

I have been avoiding reviews just to get my own feel of the game. What I can definitely say is that it's the best RPG that I have ever played on the 'Ol Genesis. I know that isn't saying a whole lot, but I am damned impressed.

[Arkhan]

how would you compare it to PS2 and PSIV?

Also the best RPG on the Genesis is Super Hydlide,   Go play it

[nodtveidt]

I don't suppose being the best RPG on the Genesis is much to ask for considering the low number of RPGs the system got. Being the best RPG on the SNES or the PCE... now there's a goal to shoot for. I mean honestly, what are you up against? PS4, Lunar, Landstalker... anything else?

Super Hydlide isn't much dude, sorry. It just has a few interesting concepts to it, but as a game, isn't really all that remarkable.

Both Lunars and Vay are two of my favs

[nodtveidt]

Vay gets a lot of heat for being unremarkable but at least it's fun and doesn't have a lot of forced grinding. Lunar TSS is definitely the quintessential Genesis RPG.

[Mathius]

As much as I have tried I never could get into PSII or PSIV unfortunately. I do enjoy Lunar SSS though. But, the only one I have played is the Playstation version.

[nodtveidt]

The Playstation version is *nothing* like the Sega CD version. At least not for Silver Star... dunno about Eternal Blue, since I returned the Playstation version to the store after only playing it for 10 minutes, and that was 10 minutes of pure suck... never got to try the Genesis version though.

[Duo_R]

Loved Lunar Eternal Blue, never cared to finish the PSX version although the packaging was nice.

[Arkhan]

Super Hydlide isn't much dude, sorry. It just has a few interesting concepts to it, but as a game, isn't really all that remarkable.

youre crazy. the games f*cking awesome.  You go into SPACE!    I dunno everyone gives the game flack and I dunno why.  Its got alot to it.

[nodtveidt]

Some people like some games better than others. Deal with it. hehe

I recently picked up Virtual Hydlide for the Saturn, and that game is...  hmmm..

[Joe Redifer]

Probably because they underestimated the cost.  I imagine that inflation also occurred since it had been so long. 

As far as Genesis RPGs go, Phantasy Star 2 was good, Phantasy Star IV was friggin' awesome!  Lunar Silver Star was good and Lunar Eternal Blue was friggin' awesome!  To be honest, I didn't like ANY of the SNES Final Fantasys (or any from that series in general).  I played through Super Hydlide mainly because of the awesome soundtrack, but I did not like how I walked super slow if I had too much money or whatever.
