I feel old as fuck when half of the people in this comments don't know what Phantasy Star IV is. I remember playing the hell out of it when I was a kid, as well as the Shining Force series and the early Final Fantasy games... and some X-Men games as well.
@HaveYouTriedGuillotines6 жыл бұрын
I didn't have a Genesis until way late, and didn't get RPGs for it. So while I know of the games, I never played them. Final Fantasy 6, on the other hand, was a cart that spent the better part of a year glued into my SNES. It's also the reason why the setting, story and characters of most modern fantasy games is so unbelievably boring to me. What can Skyrim offer me in comparison to Sabin suplexing a ghost train?

I feel the same... anytime you mention Phantasy Star nowadays, the only reply you get back is PSO 1 & 2 and PSU. The modern games don't hold a candle to the original series, especially PSIV. I played this game to death and honestly still do from time to time, I can still remember buying it at Wal-Mart when it came out for 100 dollars and people think I'm bullshitting them I when I say it cost that much... it did. It was a 24 megabit cartridge, the cost of a larger than average ROM size was passed on to the consumer at retail in those days. Safe to say though that I've more than gotten my money's worth. It's easily my No. 1 favorite game of all time. :)

@@Zombie1Boy I loved Phantasy Star 4. First exposure to it in my alley was from an issue of GameFan (a UK mag) that somehow ended up in Nebraska. I never let that magazine leave my side for a long time, and then my first time playing it was on the Sega Channel. This is still probably the best boss theme in the whole series. It conveys urgency and menace in equal measure, and it's really, *really* hard to make a decent remix of for everyone who's tried. I mean, listen to so many of them and you'll hear them all muddy with very loud distortion guitars, which is kind of annoying. This is, to my ears, a 1 to 1 cover through this tracker. Very impressive.

In my top 5 most epic "major boss" battle theme. In fact, I dare say it's the best one of the 16-bit era, second only to the first fight against X-Death

I am going to spread this channel to the fucking moon and back, JUST FOR THIS ONE SONG. Phantasy Star 4 had a LOT of force in turning me to JRPGs. Renting the damned game over and over as a kid, finally just downloading it when I learned what emulators were. This is so awesome, I could cry. Actually, I just did. A tear just streamed down my face dude. It brings back so many memories of that little grawlix, Zio. So underleveled at first.

@millgiass9 жыл бұрын
NARFNra This song gets me pumped and slightly horrified every time. In fact both Zio's themes evoke a very eerie feeling. Dark Falz's theme is really good at that too. I remember being scared as fuck when I encountered Dark Force in Zeland... or was it Kuran... One of the satellites. I was like "No... he can't be here... this is way too soon in the game!" Needless to say I let my anxiety overwhelm me and made some bad calls in the battle and he killed me.
