Xen i've played the first Lunar, i believe it was called Silver Star Story right? I loved it, it had some really cool characters, especially Jessica, and the story was very good ;)

For now, I have to resort to emulating. But I'm damn close to winning EBC on ebay... SSSC will come soon too.

Do you have the COMPLETE package? with all the extras? all JRPG's should be released like that!

Yeah it was the Silver Star Story Complete :) got it for PS.
I completely agree, but normally all JRPG's that are released with extra's don't come here to europe :/ *Looks at S-E and tries to find an Axe to chop some executive heads*



Current PC Build

CPU - i7 8700K 3.7 GHz (4.7 GHz turbo) 6 cores OC'd to 5.2 GHz with Watercooling (Hydro Series H110i) | MB - Gigabyte Z370 HD3P ATX | Gigabyte GTX 1080ti Gaming OC BLACK 11G (1657 MHz Boost Core / 11010 MHz Memory) | RAM - Corsair DIMM 32GB DDR4, 2400 MHz | PSU - Corsair CX650M (80+ Bronze) 650W | Audio - Asus Essence STX II 7.1 | Monitor - Samsung U28E590D 4K UHD, Freesync, 1 ms, 60 Hz, 28"

Many PS JRPG's weren't released in PAL territories at all.

Which is why I have 2 PS2's - NTSC and PAL.



i had a modded ps2 that let me play all regions, but the costs to import the games here to my country are ridiculous, i got FFX international and FFX-2 Last Mission for almost 100 euros each :|

A little bit, forced myself through the years to learn it because i love the japanese culture and history ;)

I'm from Portugal, and you?

Israel. The import costs should be around the same.. high.. but wtf, it's worth it.



Of course it's worth it :) i'm just short of getting FFXII Zodiac Job System, when i get a bit of free time (and saved money) it's gonna be on my purchase list. The main problem here is that the taxes for video games and electronic stuff is almost 21% of the original price, plus import taxes go up to 30%.
Mangas also suffer the same fate, i'm a huge fan of Ah My Goddess, and yet, while a book costs 15$ in US, here it goes almost to 30 euro, which is 42$ :/

No importing taxes here... unless you buy items that cost $150 and more.



@Xen

I have much experience with the Lunar games. I have "Lunar:Silver Star Story Complete", "Lunar 2:Eternal Blue Complete", a remake of SSSC on GBA although Nash' story and introduction was changed quite a bit.

Excellent games, something no RPG fan should miss out on.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)
