There is 1 thing thats good about this game: its hard to find.This game has horrible controls, graphics, and story. No1 should buy this even if it came with a free PSX. Never rent it or buy it. It's just a waste of time.

One OF the greatest Love stories of all time!

Lunar:sssc is one of the most enjoyable Rpgs this side of Final Fantasy.

The Story revolves around Alex as he tries to become a Dragonmaster like his her :Dragonmaster Dyne. Along for the ride is Nall the stubborn cat like thing, Nash the apperince of Ghalaon of the magic guild.Luna:Alex's little girlfriend,Jessica,kyle, Mia,

Lunar SSSC is the best Rpg for Character development that is only reveled by ....Lunar 2:Eternal Blue.

The LUNAR series for the Sega CD has always been my favorite games. Playstations new release of the game was the only reason I bought one instead of a Dreamcast. I think it is a great game but I think that the graphics aren't up to the Playstation standards. In other words it has the same 16 bit graphics as the origional. If you haven't played the old version then you need to buy this game. LUNAR is the best game ever made when it comes to the story and overall enjoyment. I just hope when Eternal Blue comes out it has the graphics that LUNAR deserves.

Interesting but not for a vetran like me

Most people love this game and I would reccomend it for anyone who wants to get into RPGs but I've played RPGs since Norg in text on the old commodore 64. So I've invested a great deal of time to my games, this game was fun but the graphics are weak and the game has been remade about 3 times or so.

Working Designs needs to invest some work into the graphics, the music on the other hand is good and the anemie sequences are excellant.

However graphics, anemie sequence, an FMV or two, or sound effects don't make a good RPG, plot and music coordinated at the right timing makes an RPG worth playing more than once not to mention a battle system that people will respect and want to use.

Lunar SSS has a smooth plot in a unique world that seems very enchanting but it just didn't seem to capture me so well. All in all Lunar is at least worth playing through once. ~Seth~

Lunar Silver Star Story Definitely a Star

Even though I played this game after I played Lunar 2: Eternal Blue, I still thought everything flowed together pretty well. The gameplay itself was relatively challenging, but nothing that an experienced gamer can't handle. I found myself liking all of the characters and their relationships as much as I liked the ones from Lunar 2. Definitely a game to go in anyone's collection.

Great game

I just loved this game; it really blew me away. The cut scenes were awesome and well done, and the characters were well done. You really get an understanding of the characters and you'll laugh at the conversations between the major and minor characters.Also the mood pics of the main characters and of the ones that are most crucial to the plot are great. At the end of the game, the outtakes will make you chuckle; the mistakes that the actors and actresses made were funny. The music on the soundtrack is great. I especially liked luna's boat song and the opening theme because I liked the way it was sung because it really expressed the mood of the songs. Also included is the making of the Lunar game; it's just a short 30 minutes behind the scenes thing about how the game was made. The combat system is almost like Chrono trigger: you can attack, use magic and the AI method, except that you make the moves in advance. If you haven't played this game, I suggest that you buy it.

Supernintendo Graphics made up for by story and cut scenes

Lunar is my favorite RPG game of all time! What it lacks in battle graphics it makes up for in story line as well as cut scene animation. Lunar provides players with a fulfill storyline and several plat twists. This is one of the few RPG's that will truly make you care about all the characters in your party, not just Alex (the hero). Very few RPG's take the time to develop all characters and maintain an intriguing storyline. The animation for cut scenes will have you watching again and again. This is not your average boy saves girl RPG!

Possibly the best game I've ever played

Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete has to be the best game I've ever played. It has amazing gameplay, breath-taking music, memorable characters and a mighty fine presentation to wrap it all up. Lunar: Silver Star Story is the story of young Alex, a boy from a small village called Burg who looks up to a world-saving hero, Dragonmaster Dyne. One day, his friend Ramus suggests that they go to the "White Dragon's Cave" to find and claim a legendary Dragon Diamond, and Alex and his friends are swept into a fantastic adventure.

Each minute of this game is interesting. While playing, I laughed, I smiled, I frowned, I cried, I screamed. I felt every emotion possible during the 40 hours I spent first playing the game, and the second playthrough was no different. Very different from classical roleplaying games, yet so much better.

Lunar is a must-have for all RPG fans.

THE BEST OF THE BEST!

Lunar: Silver Star Story is beyond fun & challenging. Ok, Ok, Ok, the graphics aren't FFX but, the gameplay puts other games in the dust. I personally think that Lunar: Silver Star Story is MUCH better than Lunar 2: Eternal Blue. The reason? Gameplay. To me, a game isnt about its graphics, it's about its story. Take FF7. Worst graphics I've ever seen-(Wait, Twisted Metal, then FF7). The hands are like cans of tuna in FF7, but I DON'T CARE! It's the game I'm worried about. Well, you may have thought this a waste of time reading my boring review, and I probally didn't hook you in to Lunar. (...)

Don't get your expectation TOO HIGH because of the beginning

Ok.. I'll be honest here. I read couple reviews and sensing that this game is 'bit' over-rated. (I sense people who wrote reviews frowning) I did finish this game and trust me, I had lot of expectation for this game. I haven't played the Sega CD version of it and actually blamed one of the reviewers from EGM, who gave 8.5 when rest of them gave 9 or higher. I thought this game deserves at least 9, I mean, look at the animation, the title animation is one of the most well-represented animated beginning ever, and the music was just amazing. I was constantly humming the tune because it was so, so, SO GOOD- couldn't help myself from humming it all the time. Not only that, Working Design did a fantastic/excellent job on putting in all the extra you are getting with this game, it's simply amazing- I'm left with no choice but to give credit for that. However, after I finish the game, I realized that I came to conclusion too soon, when I did play only beginning portion of the game, mesmerized with beautifully animated movie scene.
I wasn't inspired or felt that heartache or anything like that..
I mean, characters are adorable and the story is good enough to pull you in, however, it wasn't just strong enough-
So when I read several reviews saying this is the best RPG for PS or anything like that, I just couldn't agree with what they were saying, of course, everyone has right to their own opinion, but in my humble opinion, I just didn't feel it. It seemed to me that I'm more attracted to the games with more stronger theme, like Xenogear, and Lunar falls into mild-themed game, which is, of course, enjoyable.

I didn't buy the sequel, Eternal Blue, which comes with more extra and whole box for the game looks great, however, I wasn't inspired enough to purchase Eternal Blue because it wasn't just there to hook me, wasn't just there...

Well, it's definitely your call.. so if the price is reasonable for you and plenty of time, then give it a try and see how it goes. It's nice to have this game if you are a collector, however, I wouldn't buy this game if you are picking this ONE RPG to enjoy in your busy life, because there are better RPGs out there for PSOne in my humble opinion.
