You gotta hand it to them (Working Designs)...

[madhatter256]

YOu gotta hand it to them for their efforts in bringing over obscure games from Japan to the USA.

They're gonna releease a deluxe packaging of what's called Growlanser Generations, which includes Growlanser 2 and 3 (2 is a prequel of one and 3 is the continuation of 1). The deluxe packaging is right down there \/\/\/



It comes with:
-Games discs (I forget if its 2 DVDs or one DVD with both games in it)
-Soundtrack CD (not some crappy mix CD, I heard they put some effort into the soundtrack)
-Wrist Watch (A metal one that will last you, I have their pocket Arc the Lad watch and I use that occasionally)
-Chain with metal ring, gold plated.
-Playing Cards (yes... PLAYING CARDS!!)

There will be a cheaper version that will include just the game and that's priced at $50. HOwever the deluxe edition is a whopping $90.

I recently reserved my copy (deluxe edition) yesterday. The game will hopefully come out September but I doubt it since it's a WD published game.

obscure = cheap license

Many thought they went out of buisness, its good to hear their still active.

True but I guess they gotta stop using Sony. SCEA hates 2D RPGs and 2D games in general.

[Metal_4evr]

Are you judging that on the fact that they refused Metal Slug 3? That is one game and there are many 2d games on the PS2

[sayin999]

Thats true, but their new policy is that old 2d games must be released in compilations, unless it's a mixture of 3d and 2d then its different.

Not to be funny, but regular games cost about $80 here in the UK. So something like that is a bargain for $90... *whips out his credit card in anticipation of importing it and making a mint on ebay.co.uk*

I'm actually playing the first Growlanser right now. Kind of long, but a good RPG. A perfect mix of strategy and rpg. It has some issues, but worth getting. Too bad they're not doing the first one.

[Mr. Casual]

those guys always get a bad review. i liked arc the lad collection and they spent a long time on it, too. but it seems a lot of magazines didnt like 2d. most of them are 3d worshippers.
:prayer:
i used to like x play until they said dumb crap about 3d games, too.
