What does everyone think about Shining Tears? Looking superb in my view, the videos show some good environments and battles. The magical attacks also look very impressive.

It better be good anyways, considering i'm gonna have to buy a PS2 just to play it!!

The graphics look very good, including the magical attacks, but it sort of makes me wondering how diverse the game itself is :).

I think that devastating attack where they formed a circle around the enemy is in Shining Soul, where it's called the "Shining Force" - you and your party equip a weapon, charge it up and form a circle around enemies, "with devastating consequences".

I like the look of the game, but these kinds of games suffer offline because you need a regular playing partner who's as into the game as you are. Still, it definitely looks on the cool side :)

I think it's somewhat expected that the shining force type battle engine would become extinct. Now that you have fantastic graphics and powerful processors, turn based chess-like battles really have trouble fitting in, and people expect more.
The GBA is probably the only console that's ever going to see a real shining force IV.

Well the actual battle scenes could be where all that 3d power comes into use, or maybe some nice backgrounds. Graphics are no excuse for gameplay changes.

SPOILER ALERT












i liked the game and was kinda shocked when your 2 man team had to fight a group called the "Shining Force". i beat the game in 2 days but it was overall a decent game.......just not a force game....... :cry:
