@lestatdark, i wish so bad that grandia 2 ,xtreme and grandia 3 would come out as a hd collection.

I'd only put Grandia and Grandia 2 in an HD collection. Grandia 3 was already a turn for the worst in the series and Xtreme was the final nail in the coffin sadly.

@lestatdark, for me i liked grandia xtreme because dean cain who played superman in lois and clark the new adventures of superman was the lead voice character. also i put over 80 hrs into grandia 3, i really liked that game and the theme song got stuck in my head , so i bought that damn song. i just want some hd rpg collections, instead of all these action,platformers.

This optional boss was all hyped up to be hard as heck, yet I am owning the crap out of him. This game's battle system tests you in EVERY way possible.

ok, so I beat twewy for a second time now, better pins (J of the moon + tiger punks) make a lot of difference!... I need a new rpg quickly... Layton should do for now...

I realized that too when I played hard mode on Twewy. Still, Koki and Uzuki are a PAIN to beat. The music is awesome though, which makes that fight fun every try.

Try Arc Rise Fantasia? Its on the Wii, and is quite similar to Tales of Symphonia. Mario and Luigi series for the DS is good too, along with Fire Emblem 7, 8.

FINAL FANTASY 13 LIGHTNING RETURNS.
I've recently been looking more into this as I'm a massive fan of the 13 arc of the FF series.
I know we don't really know that much about the game except Lightning is back playable (great news) and its going to answer all the questions in this great story.
There are some details that slightly concern me though.

-one of the features that was mentioned during the reveal was that we can use Facebook site to play more, now I hate Facebook I find it annoying, I hope that I'm not forced into becoming a member just so I can FULLY experience LIGHTNING RETURNS.
-another one is the clock countdown feature which is vein implemented, supposedly we have 13 hours till the end of the world and were fightin against the clock! I know the isn't going to 13 hours long that would be far to short, also if you defeat enemies and do certain things the clock is supposed to gonbacks slightly, but I just hope we're not fighting against the clock Too much. If there's one tho I like in RPGs, it's to explore at my own will. I don't really want to be thinking "oh shit I Havnt really got the time to go there because the clock is ticking"

Other than those 2 things all the other features sound like good improvements, like the rising and setting sun, the way people go about there lives in metropolis areas like going work in the morning, going for coffee/tea and food intue afternoons and to the pubs at night. I like how weapons will look a lot more unique and different from each other, and how lightning is going to have over 20 customisable costumes.

There's still no word whether lightning will have a party with her or whether she's alone on this finale, but I can't see her being alone as the whole Paradigm Shift battle system wouldn't work.

Anyways I'm really hype for the game and just hope those two new features don't take away the full enjoyment of the experience.

@stokedup, from what i heard lighting will be alone, this story is focused soley on her. and they said the ending for lighting is a "happy ending" one, so i have hopes for the game.

I got it almost at launch... I lend it to a friend, and he still has it... The only little problem is that he lives like 120km of distance... 

I've got to admit I'm slightly gutted that in LIghtningReturns we arnt going to have a party to battle with. Infact I don't even think I've ever played a RPG from Japan where you battle solo, it's going to be strange.
