Which game in the trilogy would you say you are an expert in? I mean we've all played at least one, some of us have played all three. But of the three which game do you think you are an expert in.

For me, it's a no brainer. Illusion of Gaia. While I may not have Shiva Indis's grasp on translation, I can tell you from memory pretty much how to solve every dungeon puzzle. I know the worlds and events of the game like the back of my hand. I've beaten the game something like 20 times.

So yeah, IoG is my specialty.

Terranigma. and I talk so much about this game that my girlfriend wants to watch me play it, since she's convinced it's the biggest and most important thing in my heart I could share with somebody.

Well, I've played IOG first out of the three.

Then, I found this site which introduced me to the other two. So, i've researched, collected and played and beaten all three -- and my two favorites still remain IOG and Terranigma.

Soul Blader was ok, but a bit linear and not quite as great, imo, as the other two.

Which is my speciality? I honestly couldn't say.

With all three games, I had the whole sequence of events and all the locations of stuff to collect pretty much memorised after playing them through once or twice. I have a feeling that Robotrek might be harder to memorise than that though, it's a rather convoluted game all in all.

But back to the Gaia trilogy, I guess if I had to pick one, it would actually probably be Terranigma these days. I've got the other two pretty much off by heart too, though. Very Happy

I would say the name says it all. Very Happy

The first two. I've had IoG since it came out in '94 and I picked up SB a few years later, which means I've been playing the games actively for over 10 years. If Terranigma were available in the US, I'd probably know it just as well too.

Terranigma. I mean, I know a little about IoG, but definitely not a master at it. I love all of the games, though I've only beaten Terranigma, sadly.

Blasphemy! How dare thee not finish SB, greatest game of all time! Very Happy

I still have yet to even try TN.

I got stuck on the first boss. Sad

That's why.

FOR SHAME.

Jason and Raini, I demand that the two of you play Soul Blazer IMMEDIATELY. It truly is among the finest of 2D Action games to grace consoles.

You guys have my number. Text me if you get stuck. I did write the Boss FAQs on the V3 site after all.

I AM NOT DENYING THIS, IT WAS GOOD EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT I FAIL AT IT.

Incidentally, I never beat IoG either. I had a save on a rom of it at Angkor Wat, and it got deleted. Sad

I think it was a fluke I got that far, I can't beat the Vampires now.
