well, i played this game on Sega CD back in the day, and i have to admit that working designs really did a good job with porting it to the PS
well, its not really a port even, its a whole new game! the graphics are beautiful hand drawn 2-d. the anime in the game is awesome as are the voice overs, both add so much to the gameplay! the story is one of the best in any RPG!
the only problem that i have with this game is the difficulty. darn, this is one hard game! you will get so frustrated with the difficulty that you will want to throw this game down. the battles arent random, as the enemies can be seen on the screen, but you can rarely run from them as they are so fast, and so often!
another quirk, you will have to do lots of battling to get money so that you can buy armor, weapons, and items.
if you can get by the insane hard difficulty of this game, then you are in for a real treat! the anime sequences in this game alone are worth your money! BUY IT!
