16-Bit Gems #15: Terranigma [1/3] (SNES)

Part 1 of 3. To wrap up our first anniversary, we have the most requested game to review from our fans. The sequel to Illusion of Gaia - Terranigma. The very definition of a hidden gem, this game never even saw a North American release. So how does it stack up to the forebear? Roo breaks it down in this special 15th episode of 16-Bit Gems.

to be honest i dont think game companies care if we use emulators as long as we dont distribute them for financial purposes

Love this game to bits, but the ending is just sooo depressing.

Shouldn't the reverse of Mario be Wario? Just sayin'...

@ra7thsign I know you didn't just say that about the best game in the history of time. I'm sure you had a crappy rom/emulator/computer/brain because the action is way faster than soul blazer and is a bit faster than IoG. I never ran into any bugs in the 50 or so hours of gameplay which was a landmark back then. The story line was so fantastic that I was emotionally unstable for at least a week after beating it. To top it off the soundtrack was incredible as well.IMO you're the retard here.

This review of my favourite SNES RPG made me subscribe to Roo. (Well actually a bit from Asalieri recommendation too).

What I really loved Terranigma was the theme of reincarnation and the awesome soundtrack.

best SNES I ever played, close second is DKC2

@Draginvry2 agreed, it sucks ass when compared to Actraiser...or pretty much any other decent game.

@ra7thsign

Actraiser 2 is such a terrible game. I remember buying it because the first Actraiser is so awesome. I still have that terrible Actraiser 2 sitting around in a box.
