Silver is everything that can be desired from an Epic.

Not since Secret Of Mana have the play controls of an Epic been this good. Silver, like any good RPG or Epic, places the story first, (a quality not often found in Dreamcast RPGs.) and gives a good story line so that you actually care what happens to the characters. Silver uses the full capacity of the Dreamcast to portray spectacular graphics. The scenes behind the characters are awe inspiring. The demo for Dreamcast was short lived, and had me wishing the game was released. All in all, Silver looks like a promising Epic.

A great RPG

This is an all around entertaining game. The graphics are breath taking, the best on Dreamcast yet. The controls take a bit of getting used to, but once you have they're second nature. The voice acting is horrendously awful, but it is still the best Dreamcast RPG out there. (note: Grandia 2 and Eternal/ Skies of Arcadia were not out at the time of this review)

Silver, perhaps the greatest RPG for DC

Although untrue to most of the RPG genre in its battle system (real-time), the gameplay is addictive, the story is amazing, and the moves and magic look really cool. If you want a break from the run-of-the-mill RPG, this is the game for you. The only cons are, the camera angle can be irritating (about three times in the game), and the game is rather short (I beat it in 15-20 hours).

really,really great game,but ive heard some crap out there

yeah this is a really cooool game.you wont regret buying it.the story is great too,its like you actually care whats gonna happen to the characters.and the "real time" fighting is the best,its not like those regular rpg's when you have to take turns hitting each other.this game is nothing like that,once you see a guy you just go up and hit him,just like that and hes dead.now i've heard a lot of crap like when people say "your so small,you cant see who your fighting".well i gotta admit there are some places where your a size of an ant,BUT when i played this game there was NEVER any places where i couldn't see who i was fighting.so if you read anything like "your so small" or "you cant see who your fighting",the people just need some glasses or they need to buy a bigger t.v.well thats all i gotta say ,well i could go on and on about this game,there is so much great stuff about it,but i'll leave the rest for you to find out when you buy it.

Possibly the best RPG for Dreamcast

This is an Epic story of a young man who goes off to rescue his wife from evil emperor Silver. Alot of detail went into making this game. There is an unbelievable selection of weapons, aromor, health recovery items, and more. The graphics will amaze you, the background scenes are just beautiful. The semi Med-evil setting will keep you interested, along with the incredible story that goes along with it. The realtime battle strategy is a new approach to recent RPG's, so you wont get bored with those long battle sequences like in Final Fantasy. The controls are self explanitory so you can start playing right from the very start. All the different characters speak with their own personality so you will care about what happens to them. The bottom line is that this may go down in history as one of the best games ever. Nuff' said.

Excellent adventure game

I bought this game used (...). It turned out being the best
dreamcast game I played to date. Truly, an addictive adventure
game. The only complaint I have is that I defeated it too quickly.
I recommend "Silver" to all adventure game enthusiasts.

the dreamcast`s best so far!

Since the launch of the dreamcast last fall the dreamcast has been hurting for a worthy RPG(role playing game),but silver is a breath of fresh air for the genre.The game sports beautiful graphics and real time battles(you don`t have to take turns),but on the down side the camera angle is alittle to far away for my tastes and the A.I.(artificial intelligence)of the fellow adventures in your group can be frustrating during the battles.All in all though i really had a great time playing this game and that`s what it`s all about,isn`t it!

SILVER IS A GREAT GAME

This is without a doubt the bast RPG out on Dreamcast right now. It does has a few problems. The story seems weak at points, and sometimes the camera angles make combat tough, but all in all this game is great! If you are thirsty for a Dreamcast RPG pick this one up!

"Silver"

Play as David, a head-strong, sometimes over-confident knight on a mission to reclaim the wife who was taken from him. Wander through the amazingly rendered world of "Jarrah". Throughout the game you are free to roam the land without the constraint of having to complete one mission to move on to the next. There is no given sequence that you have to follow which makes the game more realistic than most RPG's. There is a wide array of weaponry, all with upgrades. Many different types of magic to wield, which only get stronger with frequent use.

The downside to this game would have to be the distance at which you view the action. Being so far away can make battle difficult, especially when trying to take on many creatures at once. The battle controls seem rather awkward at first but become more comfortable in time. All in all this is a really great game, a must buy for an avid action/RPG fan.
