This opening has such a bad ass song. It's a shame back then they couldn't really give the opening visuals that do the song justice. Hence why I like the remake's opening better even if the song isn't as awesome.
THIS is lunar, not that goody goody crap from the remakes. Lunar is edgy, has some evil stuff in it, but they lessen than in the remakes. Like how a certain village is kidnapped and used as slaves, good stuff and they took it out.,
I swear they had this song in the PS1 version somewhere, or at least in the OST that came with the 4 disc version (collectors version I guess but it doesn't say that on any part of the box so I don't call it that :P, I bought it thinking it was the regular version. $70-80 O_o worth every penny =D).
You might have also noticed that the OST that came with COMPLETE had several songs that weren't actually in the PS1 version. I think it was sort of a "best of" thing. I think they should have just released the full OST out here.
I remembered the Sega Saturn version all these years and forgotten that this was the original one! Wow, I actually remembered the song as it was playing too. Let's see, '93 I was 12, now I'm 28! Man, I feel old. Ghaleon was the best though!
Damn right he did. He killed dragons, made your character's parents into slaves, unleashed plagues, brainwashs your underage girlfriend (and makes her wear a thong for his amusement), staffed his army with hot evil chicks who all want him, shot down a floating city for the lolz and kidnapped every decent looking chick in the land and put them all in his Cadillac of evil bases: a giant tank city that had badass backround music (the only way it could be cooler is if it had spinners).
Actually, I have the original 2 Lunar games for the Sega CD. I'm just missing the actual Sega Genesis system and Sega CD add-on. I think I lost it during one of my moves.
They're out there. Those things are gold to me. You're lucky to have the oringinal games. I'd probably emulate a SegaCD by making images of the games merely for the lack of a SegaCD. There are a few emulators that play them, I'm just not sure how the change disk functions are used these days since it's been two years since I've dabbled in emulation. I would imagine that it's mainstream now.
But seriously, thanks for posting this. I have so much positive association and great nostalgia from in regards to this game that I almost cried watching it. This was probably the first time I've seen this opening in nearly a decade.
Oh you gotta love the English version of this song. "...kiss me my love and go, the time for battle has returned again!!" The Japanese version uses the same song but no where as insane as this version. Do you think this is appropriate for an RPG game? Hahaha!!!
Proof you don't need graphics to get a great game... *Replays over and over*

@sortedevaras Spinners are for rap fans and rap is welfare music. Go drink a pitcher of Kool-Aid.
