First, let me just say that Lunar is a very good rpg *if you love rpgs*. Lunar Silver Star Story Complete is a game about a young man named Alex who wants to become a Dragonmaster. He and his two friends Luna and Ramus Set off on an adventure to see the white dragon for treasure. but alot of things happen. The graphics in Lunar are nothing short of what you'd see in a snes game. There is some text in the game that is... well... has grammer issues, but you only see it occur a few times. There are lots of treasures to be found in the game as well, there are hidden cutscenes in the game, hidden weapons, and some hidden pics you can find of charicters in the game (mostly aimed at the females ;)).

Fighting is one of the strongpoints in the game. The fighting never really got old for me. But some of the boss fights are a killer. Leveling up isn't a huge issue either. The strange thing though is how many enemies can be on the map at once! there can be from 1-12 enemies to fight. A major drawback of the game though is it's limited abilities. characters can learn 8 or 10 abilities at the max.

Overall Lunar is a great rpg with alot of cutscenes. But being the non fan of anime that i am, I really didn't care for them that much. The best score i can give it is an 8/10.

Why an 8/10?
I dont know what it was, but Lunar felt very restrictive. What I mean by that is that you had to be at a certain level to beat alot of places. Sometimes you had to resort to grinding to that certain level before you could get anywhere. As you all know, I could care less about graphics in an RPG so I had no problems there. There were quite a few cutscenes, the music was different but good and the battle system was very user friendly =). I only reccomend this game to Hardcore RPG fans because the casual gamer would flame the hell out of this.
