Hmm...Intresting game to import, as the series really has gone unnoticed over here in game circles...Except for the pretty rocking art by Satoshi...^^

But it's being done by Working Designs, which always plays too loose with translations for my tastes...And they're dubbing is...Not the best in the Industry...:P (I wish they had a code in the PSX lunar to turn the damn vocies off...-.-)

Nice! I hope this is the beginning of a
beautiful new trend :)

With those sprites, though, it may be tough to sell to the general public...

I've been a Langrisser fan for years, and
PS Growlancer was a great game. One of my
favorite PS RPGs.

So naturally, we (GL fans) were expecting
GLII to be nothing short of awesome.

What we got was a short, crappy, rushed-out
of the developer crap. The story was much
less grand, characters were bland, and the
game was about 1/10 the size of the first one.

Oh, did I mention that they didn't even draw
a SINGLE event scene? Not ONE.

GLII dissapointed majority of GL fans, I
don't understand why they would choose II
to port.

Because GLII was so unpopular with the fans,
GLIII reverted back to the format of the
first game, and was decent. It still doesn't
compare to the first one though.

GLII was nothing more than a fan-service
game, it should have been called Growlancer
Gaiden or Fanpack, instead of "II".

Well, I guess that explains why Atlus passed it up......Looks like WD is selling on Urushihara's name alone (although his name means nothing to non-anime users)...
