Grandia 2 - Dreamcast v. PS2 bugs

This is a back to back comparassion of both versions of Grandia 2 of the same opening scene of the first town. The PS2 version has a ton of slowdown bugs and many other problems including less detailed graphics, or background drops. Heck, even the shadows of the characters look worse on the PS2. !express# !metadata#!version#v1.0.r291!/version#!format#1.001!/format#!totalTime#62377!/to­talTime#!width#400!/width#!height#300!/height#!maxSceneSize#104002!/maxSceneSize­#!clientPublishTime#Wed Jan 30 19:31:37 GMT-0500 2008!/clientPublishTime# !/metadata# !scenes#!scene# !asset path="http://www.youtube.com/remixer/assets/captions/PlainCaptions.swf" type="CaptionContent"#!stamp time="0"# !text#Dreamcast!/text# !color#16777215!/color# !display#true!/display# !face#Bernhard!/face# !z#2!/z# !render#!tx#149.1!/tx#!b#0!/b#!c#0!/c#!ty#220.55!/ty#!a#1!/a#!d#1!/d# !/render#!/stamp#!stamp time="31125"# !display#false!/display#!/stamp# !/asset#!/scene#!scene# !asset path="http://www.youtube.com/remixer/assets/captions/PlainCaptions.swf" type="CaptionContent"#!stamp time="31125"# !text#Playstation2!/text# !color#16777215!/color# !display#true!/display# !face#Bernhard!/face# !z#2!/z# !render#!tx#140.25!/tx#!b#0!/b#!c#0!/c#!ty#213.5!/ty#!a#1!/a#!d#1!/d# !/render#!/stamp#!stamp time="62377"# !display#false!/display#!/stamp# !/asset#!/scene# !/scenes# !asset path="finished/C54932BFB3D77426-3D665388930ACDCD.flv" type="VideoContent" desc=""#!stamp time="0"# !mute#false!/mute# !height#300!/height# !display#true!/display# !position#0!/position# !width#400!/width# !volume#0.75!/volume#!/stamp#!stamp time="62377"# !display#false!/display#!/stamp# !/asset#!/express#

[zombiehead]

bullshit about what? I would like to see you prove me wrong on anything written or shown in that video

[djsyks1]

i always did think the dreamcast was better than the ps2,if the console was around for longer who knows what sort of power they could of squeezed out of it.

Dreamcast>PS2 and PC

[slitheryjuggler94]

@omegaweaponredux eh i play emulators, but to play it on console i'd rather have an actual copy of the game :/

[omegaweaponredux]

@slitheryjuggler94 well how do you feel about piracy? you got a blank cd spare? you can play it.

[slitheryjuggler94]

i would like to get the version for my dreamcast, but nowadays you cant just go to gamestop and buy it there, they dont sell old games. i could order it but i dont feel like waiting lol i just want to play the game, i'll buy the ps2 version, looks pretty much the same :)

So I'm kinda confused at what I'm seeing. Is the bug that the footsteps are out of sync on the PS2 version?

@FuckedYourDad

hey even an emulator can run without any serious bugs when its done right :P

[capcom23]

@xXBoogiepopXx luckily playable on PC the dreamcast games :P. I just downloaded it and just awesome graphics. DC rules.

I hate the slowdown problems with the PS2 version of Grandia 2, but that never kept me from playing it.

DREAMCAST>>>>>..., >>>>>>>>PS2

[xXBoogiepopXx]

It made me really sad how Ps2's Grandia 2 was like this. I really enjoyed the DC version until my copy stopped working.

Thankfully the PC version definately lives up to it's name. It's basically the DC version running in 60 FPS.

along time ago, i loved grandia X, so i bought grandia 2, hoping it would be as cool.

To bad I bought it on ps2, the game runs way to slow, I feel like I am playing an emulator, it is freakin horrible, I couldnt continue playing the game because it was so slow.
