  • Used to pwn so bad at this game. And you rlly gotta make your King fight alot. That way u get alot of levels to fight the last boss. Last boss rlly whicked hard. No kiddin. Game's one of the best there is. Dragon force IS and will forever be a GAME to my eye. Indeed.

  • Awesome I have this game in mint condition. It's my pride and joy!

  • One of the best games i've played.

  • i loved this game, i can play it over and over again

  • As much as i'd love to buy myself another sega saturn AND this game, they're simply too rare now and too expensive to the point where i'd actually regret buying this awesome game. RoMs are of subpar quality i agree, but this game stands up on its own that you can stride through a few glitches and enjoy yourself. Now, if the dream guys who made this released it as a remake on xbox live or psn like smart companies do.... ohhhh happy days.

  • I watch your game play. The enemy groups in this game goes like this: they always send the weakest fighter up front first. So Leon you should choose last, you should always choose the King or Queen of a kingdom last, because the last person the computer chooses is the hardest. Maybe if you had 20 monks with yanna, instead of 10, you would have beat Myril. But, still that liberation army is tough!

  • This game is awesome, unfortunately it wasn't as popular as it should be! Maybe because it was a Saturn game. The music in this game is the best video game music I have ever heard, props to the music director for this! The game also has its funny moments and its not an extrememly difficult game to play either, its pretty fun and entertaining...but its best to be tactical in the game.

  • this game was the best back in the days!!!

  • Dragon Force: A great game.

    DragonForce: Get a better name and don't copy the name of a great game.

    It had to be said

  • @RequiemPwnagePSN For your information, before 2000, they were called DragonHeart, but they later found someone else already had that name, so they changed it to DragonForce with no intentions of taking the name of anything else. And plus, it's a damn game. Do you think anyone cares?

  • @heartshapedlife1 1. I found the band by guitar hero. And I only said it because no one else did. Plus, I was half tired.

    2. Interesting.

    3. According to [most] people in this generation....yes.

  • @heartshapedlife1 Obviously you do.

  • i love this game!! its fortunate that my Sega Saturn is still working!! DragonForce, Guardian Hero's and Albert's Odyssey are the best!

  • 9 minutes i wish i had never spent....

  • Great looking at this video, brings back memories... plan to do a full on side story flash animation for this game! 

  • Many many many years later, I still search for something similar to Dragon Force but current.

  • @moesix

    For reals, I loved this game. Is there anything out for the Xbox360 or PS3 with this kind of gameplay???

    I love how you start with a castle, then gradually acquire other different castles or races to build your empire bigger until you just sit back and watch the carnage behind a massive army at your command. Similar games like Dynasty Warriors, Warhammer, and Kingdom Under Fire don't quite cut it. This game updated with some Unreal graphics engine would rock my world!

  • man, if Vanillaware can take the gameplay of Dragon Force, and add their amazing 2D graphics, then my mind would be blown.

  • My game crashed whenever I went to some mountain with dragons near the end (the final battle, maybe?) It made the Baby Jesus cry.

  • most addictive game ive played. its sad that such a good gameplay was never copied. every wargame is boring compared to that

  • This was my favorite game on Saturn, I played this for hours and hours on end.

  • "I can read your thoughts. There is no hope," said the guy whose HP was in the red. Hm...

  • At least Phantasy Star is less likely to become the name of a British Journey-inspired metal band... :)

  • I never liked strategy rpg's until I played this game. One of my all-time favorite videogames.

  • Great Games

  • best game ever

  • THROUGH THE FIRE AND FLAMES WE CARRY ONNNNN

  • Looks like a mix of Spectral Force with Ogre Battle, really cool! A shame I will never be able to play...

  • @TheNeoHack why is that?

  • @vulgarscreams What part? That I said I will never be able to play? ´Cause I don't have a Saturn, the only way is through emulators but every emulator I try to set up on my PC it needs an additional file to install (like Yabause) and I couldn´t do it....

  • @TheNeoHack are you fucking joking do you know what an emulator is if you dont you should look into it best shit ever made

  • @350zdemon I know what an emulator is, believe me , I probably know more about it than you do. Is just that my PC is fucked and it´s missing some key components to play the emulator.

  • @TheNeoHack well that sucks for you i have all the emulators that i need all the way from atari to ps2 nintendo ds all of them. knowledge sucks if you cant put it to use

  • @350zdemon Actuall I prefer to buy the real consoles instead of using emulators, I rarely ever use then, in this case I will fix my PC and then use it to play this game and Shining Force 3.

  • I have this game, luckly it was also on the pal version cost me 5 euros in a store brand new. Right now In some sites here in my country they ask a lot of money. One advice for all the gamers keep your games from all your systems you might find a rare game in your colection

  • @marcioandre83 I have a couple rare games myself. One of them being this game. I enjoy every bit of it.

  • @Friik411

    What kind of systems and games you have? In my collection I have a sega mega drive 2 a sega saturn model 2 a ps2 slim and a game gear. Games I have several for each system the problem is that most of games are stored in box and I don't know where they are because when we changed house my parents mix all the things together.

  • @marcioandre83 I really just have saturn and the wii at the moment. But I got a couple games such as this and guardian heroes(It didn't come in the original case and doesn't have the instruction booklet) I'm not sure if any of my other games would fall under this list but I can look them up.

  • This should seriously be ported to modern systems, like the PSP. It'd be a great alternative to strategy games being offered today like Advance Wars and Final Fantasy Tactics.

  • I just bought this today from a local retro gaming shop. I LOVE it! There's so much replay value to be had here!!! This is a true gem of the Saturn library!

  • that looks awsome... i gotta get me one of those!

  • God, I spent days of my life away on this game.

  • I stand behind lordsofkoble on this.... sega saturn and dreamcast are systems worth buying. both have AMAZING games on them and anyone saying otherwise is blind to the truth or stuck in some console war that ended in the 90s

  • I remember playing as the dark knight and the big reveal... blew me away at the time. This game will always be a great memory.

  • Never play it before, so I'll try it some XD

  • This game rocked my socks off.

  • One of the greatest games for the Saturn...What an experience playing this bad boy! LOVED it!!! In retrospect, it should have been much deeper as far as combat goes but it was STILL an amazing game...

  • For victory we ride, Fury of the Storm!

  • omg i used to have one of these before my little sister broke it i forgotten how amazing it was im gona find one from somewhere and be happy for a few more years

  • I miss Sega Saturn games i the Virtual Console.

  • Please tell me this is a rom that you have... and please tell me how to get it to work! I have a rom / emulator for it, but i haven't been able to get it to work... used to have, but no longer do. This is by far one of my favorite games of all time. I've been looking in to purchasing a new SS and Game JUST for this game.

  • surprised the hell out of me on how good this game is. my saturn pooped out but i still have it.

  • I've got two versions of the US version and the Japanese remake of PS2 for this game....in my top 3 of all time definatly

  • 1:56 so epic little music

  • i remember this it was pure genius they should add this to ds exactly how it is

  • This is still one of my top 10 games of all time, even after all the games I've played since.

  • Me too, see my comment 6 months ago, one of my top 5 fav. games of all time!

    It's still addicting to play after all these years!

  • I still got my Sega system and a Pal version of this game :)

    Love it and I play it like 1 week every 3-4 years hehe

  • A rom. unfortuantely I sold my sega saturn ages ago and I loved this game. Someone find a rom for this! I would love to play this game!

  • Go on Get yourself a Sega Saturn. Forget roms and fall in love with some quality retro hardware. Go mad and find a converted 50/60hrz one on ebay and open yourself up to all the fantastic games that came out in only Japan , Go on you wont regret it!

  • @lordsofkoble yeah once i start making 32K a year ill think about it

  • @lordsofkoble hate to butt in but are you talking about one of those

    20 years old pieces of "hardware" all covered in duck tape that fail in the middle of your game?

  • @lordsofkoble And don´t forget the Action Replay 4in1 :D

  • @lordsofkoble An AR 4 in 1 is easier.

  • @lordsofkoble what do you mean converted? for PAL users?

  • @lordsofkoble This guy speaks the truth as I just recently did all he described above!

  • @lordsofkoble

    Cost 60$ for the console alone with all the cables and controllers on amazon. Some of the games are ungodly expensive. People would rather pirate for nearly the same experience.

  • @SgtThom

    Only cheapskates pirate... if you love games you buy them and collect them not play on roms with glitches and sound issues LOL

  • @lordsofkoble You probably know this by now two years later, but for those that don't, GameShark can easily bypass region locks. Some games may need extra memory, but most work. Simply hold Start+X+Y+Z while starting the game through the GameShark and you're off to the races. The Saturn truly rocks. Great games all over.

  • if anybody finds a rom of this game, PLEASE let me know.. This game's a gem from my childhood and I'd love to play it again

  • One of the best Sega Saturn game

    masterpiece

  • I wish I could get a rom of this, I can't find one anywhere though

  • Wasn't this game ported onto the ps2 in japan for one of the sega ages colllections?

  • Yes :D

  • what kinda rpg is this

  • Comment removed

  • its listed as a strategy RPG on the game manual

  • strategy

  • man this game was the SHIT

  • XD 1 monk kicking mage ass awesome lol

  • There was a game made based on this for the old N-Gage which had an online capability. You go online and command your soldier to own the world... called Pocket Kingdom. Sadly it stopped. That game was SUPER fun.

  • c'est l'un des meileur jeux sur saturn en therme de combats superbe et magnifique je l'ai et je crois que je le garderai pour toujour car c'est un jeu qui vaut depuis sa sortie une fortune

  • It was one of the most addicting games I've ever played. I'd probably still be playing that if my Saturn haden't crapped out on me. I still remember how giddy I felt after I figured out how to get Zanon in my army.

  • 3:20 Hero of the squad award goes to that guy right there.

  • Sadly struck down by Myria's sceptre spell thing.

    RIP Nameless Monk

    2:00-3:35

  • A decent Dragon Force ISO and SSF emulator works great now, actually.

    Sad that Sega's advertising department was so terrible; maybe a fan-translation of DF2'll come along like Shining Force III's, one day.

  • Can someone also tell me what that game was called where you played as a builder and you had to hide under your hat and used hammers to smash towers and things it was epic what was it?

  • El Mucho Sucko!

  • "Its was truly epic why this hasn't been remade I don't know.."

  • The best strategy/rpg ever!

  • Wow! I spent great moments with this game. I'm so lucky for having it, cause now it's so expensive (at least on Ebay)

  • Hey guys, I was searching on DeviantART for Dragon Force artwork and I found a guy called "Legendra". If you google him or go to DA and search for Legendra, you can see that he draws Dragon Force artwork really well..and quite often.

    I say if they remake this game, they should make this guy redraw all of the original artwork for the game! Dragon Force ROOOOOCKS!

  • one of Saturn's finest games.

    Too bad my CD's all scratched up to play.

    R.I.P. Working Designs.

    IIRC Magic Knight Rayearth was the last game

    Working Designs published for the Saturn.

  • I have a Magic Knight Rayearth gamegear in honor of the sadness.

  • i cant believe working designs went out of business or whatever happened to them they had so many great games =(

  • People stopped making good games like this so Working Designs had nothing left to publish. So they died.

  • It would be cool to have a remake of that game

  • lol there is a remake but its only in japan on the ps2 =/

  • This game is incredible.

    In my top 5 of all time.

    Bought it in January of 1997 at Toys' R Us after seeing a pic of it in EGM. Working Designs did quality stuff, so I figured it was a safe bet.

    I was blown away by how awesome & addictive this game was, & still is...

    Played it about 6 hours a day for a week until I finished it 12 years ago.

    I still have my copy & original Saturn, maybe I'll bust it out for another go through, it's been about 5 years.

    Too bad DF2 never saw a U.S. release.

  • this game was AWESOME! I want to play it RIGHT NOW!

    please.. Saturn's Greatest Hits on 360 and PS3.

    please god please...

  • saturn would more likely be on the Wii, since nintendo and sega teamed up alot.

  • Yes, but the Wii has absolutely no chance of being able to emulate the Saturn's complex architecture properly.

    I think the console most likely to see a 'Saturn greatest hits' is the PS3, although, I think the chances of even that are highly unlikely.

    The Saturn was such a beast to program for, and it is a nightmare to emulate, or port from.

  • the N64 was pretty much capable of most things the saturn could. although as you said, the console is alot more complex.

  • On a cold winter morning...

  • Only reason I own a Saturn is to play this game.

  • haha my fave band have the same name as this game woot

  • This looks a lot like Ogre Battle and Tactics Ogre type games... but the combat looks like one big clusterfuck.

  • i want a western release of the ps2 remake.. it had higher resolution better character portraits and fully voiced dialouges

  • I wish they made this game for the ds or something it looks like its playable on the ds

  • i tried to install a saturn emulator only for this game...but i couldnt make it work. i spent like 4 hours trying to make it work. I tryed like 5 different emulators and checked FAQs, forums and other stuff...nothing worked. Can anyone help me?

  • Amazon.

    Go buy one. Theyre not that expensive. Dragonforce is 15-20 quid for europe. Cheaper for america.

  • i dont wanna buy a console just for 1 game

  • Then dont play it.

  • dragon force is actually very expensive more like 100 quid

  • ive seen it go for 20quid before. several times now.

  • ok then it has decreased alot in value last months

  • this and guardian heres made the saturn win

  • I can't read what " Moomoocowgr " said but i'm pretty sure that he's a lil kid playing at wow (referring to his name). He cant understand the joy this game brought.

  • this is one of the best games ever!

  • Damn this game looks good, reminds me of Disgea: Generation of Chaos

  • I'm writing for Sega to remake this and Dark Wizard for the PS3. If you want write to them to so we can get this excellent game remade for current systems! Sega has one million Sonic games, but no other Dragonforce and Dark Wizard games.

  • you can get a saturn emulator and play it all you want.

  • The battle music and the cheering of the troops sure brings back memories. I always fighting mages, especially if the general did some kind of spell that took a long time to cast, cause the mages (and archers) could continue shooting, while the melee troops ran around and got picked off.

    Mages were surprisingly good against dragons if you were short on samurai though. Just use the same technique I described (cept pulling them back first so they dont get slaughtered) and put them on standby.

  • i agree this is good game ---> this brings back memories

  • I MISS this game.. i will never forget it. The best game Ever... Rpg+Strategy..

    DRAGON FORCE for ever and ever....

  • wow ur a dumbass this game came out in like 1997 and its for sega saturn

  • And i loved use dragons as a troops.. but they was weak vs samurais. like soldiers was weak vs horses and beasts weak vs soldiers. zombies weak vs mages. DAMMMM. and i loved the special methid to shearch itens. it was need to have chars with inteligence 70+ our 76+ to find itens like astea status that give +1 point on mana.... DAMMMM why PS3 dont open this game for as... like they have done with Final fnatasy7.. they open ff 13 with same chars as ff7.

  • DAMMM i relly miss it... i finish this game with ALL EMPERORS gongos mikhal wein leon junon teiris reinhart and goldark.. i discovered all the secret chars in it. samurai hayate and his friend xirox. dragon vangal and his bad master ZADO. Randa... and a vampire girl named Sierra and her boyfriend Vlad.... AAAARRRGGG i want play this game DAM:... i can even remember how was nice fight with The wild BASTION. he was the best rogue in all entire map :)

  • OMG this game its the first RPG i played in all my LIFE.. i miss it so much dam.. that was already for 6~8 years. Dragon force is a great game, i was totaly fanatic. ANYONE KNOWS how can i play it in PC? with emulator? if anyone cna help me , write here where i can download it and what is necessayr. Thanks a lot

  • I love the hell out of this game.

  • i was thinking this shit would b on wii but xbla would b tight

  • I got the pal version of this game, as good as new, i never liked the game, i think i should sell it on ebay for 130+ euro or should i keep it??

  • for 130 you will never sell it ...

  • well i just did you fuckin homo

  • whi the fuck cares, im spent it all on xbox 360 games already you fuckin cunt, i bet you have apussy, i wont believe anything else, you have a pussy and 1 tit

  • i bet he makes sand castles with his shit lol

  • i still got the system sitting in the closet just missing power cord, and has a dead battery but the game was the shits, played every character and beat the whole game with every character.

  • u can use any powercord really, and the battery you need is a CR 2032, same ones go into dreamcast vmus.  you can find them in any electro shop

  • you just cant beat good old fashioned rpgs like final fantasy 7, suikoden,grandia ect and until more people realize that rpgs are way better then fps's you shouldn't hold your breath for any more godly rpgs like the good old ones

  • i pity the foo who thinks soulles crap like halo or gears of war is great while never having played truly awesome games like dragon force , it amuses me what garbage you people name "best game evar" these days.. repent and buy a saturn!

  • This game really needs to be put on XBLA.

  • Lol dude u suck at this

  • I wish this game was on XBLA.

  • these songs are better than through the fire and flames

  • A mythic game, why there's no such game today !!!

  • incrible !!

  • this game looks sick.

  • Wow. You must do all kinds of videos on the obscure video games. I love that. Good work. I also enjoyed your sillioiet mirage videos!

  • I got my original Saturn copy on e-bay. It was expensive but worth every penny.

  • Must..... buy.... DRAGON FORCE...

  • hha i love this game too,, is there any console for this game except saturn ?

  • yes it was remade for the ps2 and remains japan only.. incidentally there is a sequel; Dragon Force 2 for the sega saturn but that has remained japan only as well.

  • This is the best war game ever! I need a port of this game to the psp please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • where can i get this game????

  • Probably only Ebay or amazon. I want this game too.

  • what for a name have the game i want play it ó.o

  • love this game

    Zanon and Zado was stronger than last boss! :D

  • This was such a good game, this video has inspired me to blow the dust off my Saturn and Start DF again along with Shining the Holy Ark, Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shining Force 3 and Guardian Heroes. Man I loved the saturn. Just scared it'll all look terrible on my HD telly :(

  • ooh my god i loved this game so much i have searched for it in like 5 years one day when i came home from mallorca it was destroyed

  • Nostalgic ^.^

  • Thankyou for uploading this! reminds of the days i used to play this..Guardian Hero's and Panzer Dragoon Saga over and over!..this is one of my favorite games ever!.

  • Guardian hero was and still is awesome

  • Putz, eu era viciado nesse jogo...

  • ya grandes noitadas agarrado a isto :D

  • wuah i wanted to see people play guitar real fast XD

  • lulz. sry no through fire + flames here

  • And I had a crush on Teiris. Yeah, lame pre-pubescent boy... what are you gonna do.

  • I played this game when I was really young, and for YEARS have been thinking about it but couldn't remember it! I finally searched every game on SNES/Genesis/Saturn (couldn't remember which it was on) and found it this week!!

    It stuck in my mind for over 10 years literally HAUNTING ME!

    I loved it so much, and I paid way too much to buy it on eBay this week just so I could play it again. How lame is that?!

    But seriously, one of the best games I've ever played.

  • I looooove Dragon Force..Go Teiris and Wein! i love the music from dragon force to. to bad for the saturn in the us. also they had abe's exodus and albert's odysse

  • woll smoth

  • This is the best game when i was young playing it on SS. Completed the Teris's Kingdom,and able to use Gold dark. Too bad,other sets like PS 2 or PSP now doesn't have this game.

  • hace 12 años ya y lo recuerdo como el primer dia junto al dark savior y el daitona usa los mejores

  • this and shining force 3 were the best games for the saturn by miles! if all 3 shining force scenarios and dragon force 2 were translated then that system would kick ass.
