Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great games such as Illusion Of Gaia. It’s up on my channel ORTmusic to check out and download!
They don't make games like this anymore. My first console was an N64, I was too young to have a SNES. A few years ago a SNES came into my possession along with this game and a couple of other games(2 Mario games & Alien). I mostly played this one. For me, it rivals modern games - good gameplay, touching storyline & great score. I guess I am a bit of a sucker for RPGs though. The only thing I didn't like was the ending. Not being able to skip through it also sucked.
I don't know why so many people talked crap about this game back then... Awesome gameplay along with a nice storyline and a kick-ass music, I think this game should be mentioned as one of the best SNES rpgs of all time.
@knightrave21 I agree. I recently passed this game on my emulator and is one of the best adventure and action RPGs that I've played. The gameplay and the music are great, but the storyline has some flaws and gaps IMO.
Why is it that all the rpg's back then ALWAYS had a creepy looking final boss....these days..you look at a final boss and it just doesn't have the "wow" factor that slams into you when you see them for the first time.
my father is playing this boss right now! Yes... my whole family are gamers lol, he beat zelda on super nintendo like 20 times if not more... im on folkore for ps3.
@rast123456789 Crystalis is an okay game. At first I thought it was amazing, but as I played through it I had my share of frustrations. #1 being trying to find out what to do and where to go.
@rast123456789 yeah, but that doesn't mean it's a great game. BattleToads was ground breaking in some ways, but it had one glarring flaw that prevented a lot people from loving it.
@mopbrothers i thought it was a great action adventure for its time and i loved the story but heck i was a little kid when i played it even replying as a teen it was still fun. Also i never played battle toads but did play double dragon battle toads with my friend as a kid twas fun
I remember getting this game when it first came out! It even came with a cool t-shirt which I have long since outgrown.
When I was younger, the simple gameplay was enough to keep me entertained...but now that I'm older it just doesn't do the trick for me. I will say, however, that there are some really great moments in this game that have some really deep messages that most kids won't "get". For the most part, tho, the story and characters were kinda mediocre
I was just thinking about Michael Jackson, there is really something that reminds. =) Maybe its because hes face melted, kind of reminds me about MJ episode of southpark.
tsh tsh tsh (falling from the sky) and skrit skrit skrit! (launching phoenixes. sounds like my cat taking a crap/digging in the litterbox. With an awesome soundtrack, of course.
This whole game is really easy XD I can beat each boss with Will without using an herb (al bosses that you CAN use Will for) Dark gaias a chump, just spam the melt move to dodge everything
Oh my GOSH, I can't believe I never thought of using that water melt move. I sat there and caught a severe beat down trying to dodge those green homing energy blasts, eventually I won. I was shaking my head in disappointment of myself while watching this video.
the final boss was kind of a disappointment. Every boss before (esspecially the vampires) were pretty tough nuts to crack, and then this dyke comes along :/... just stand in the middle and hit away. Also, those two green orbs D.Gaia fires at you can be defended (R and L buttons).
Well I wouldn't go THAT far. The nr1,2,4 bosses were all extremely easy. But the Vampire couple gave me a lot of trouble when I used just Will (I had to transform into Freedan and use his dark friar). Though I admit the time limit on that bomb is annoying (it's a fricking dud!!!). The mummy Queen can also be annoying if you dont have a good strategy at first (and she has a lot of attacks that can hit you by accident).
well, yeah, maybe I went too far with my comment... but yeah the vampires were hard, and the fact that you also had to deal with that countdown was way too annoying, I thought that, if those guys were that hard, the next ones were gonna be impossible, man, I was so damn wrong.
A really ironic thing I've experienced is that my sister played this and found the vampires EASY and all the other bosses HARD. She'd ask me to beat all the other bosses for her.
I found the vampiress easy, to me the 1st boss and Dark Gaia are harder than the vampire, to kill the vampires I used freedan, I only ran to the vampiress and attacked until she dies, after I went to the vampire and killed him. All this in 40seconds. Now I'm trying to kill dark gaia
i loved this game but sadly my freakin cousin jacked all my snes games and it pissed me off so much! i love this game one of the best of all time i want a remake
ok so the music at the very begining of this clip can anyone get the full riff in a recording?? i think if you stand in a save spot eventually it plays i would like to get the notes somehow to play on recorder
can anyone find the whole riff for the song at the very begining of this video, i know if you go in the save door and hang out in there it starts playing????
i love this game. it's one of my all time favourites.
and by the way. does anyone here remember who the Jackal was in this game? the only thing i remember about him was that i used to be afraid of him when i was younger. o_O hahaha! thanks.
I loved this game, but it did suck how easy the final boss is. For some reason though on the top of "Tower of Babel" I kinda got a wierd feeling looking at Earth (yes even from a game) with that tune going.....kinda calming, relaxing, eerie feeling =/ lol

for the third red jewel, u have to visit all houses, and comming out from the house of one of the friends, understood?
the 50 jewels guy is easy to beat, get him to the left bridge, stay a bit left, then defent the left and middle fireball, the one right cant hit you if stand allright, denn just one hit, defense, one hit defense, 40 times... its easy...
Holy crap I remember playing this game when I was like 9. The boss was a bitch for me to beat and you kicked his butt like it was a piece of cake. Awesome. One of my fav RPG. Thanks 4 the upload.
The first time you become Shadow, you receive an item called the Aura that triggers the "melting" technique. Its original purpose is to descend through thin floors, but as you can see, it also has practical use in battle.
The game was awesome, but I only have one complain, is that I can't get the third red jewel in south cape. I've only gotten it a few times, but I don't know how
It's completely random. But you need to get it BEFORE you talk to your friends in south cape (the telekinesis thing, the card thing, and seths explanation)
Now I have to download an emulator and replay this game. So many memories. WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DIE HAMLET?
