If you've never played Luna 2 then you've never played one of the best RPG's of it's time. Simply stunning is the word you'd use to sum up this game. Do yourself a favour and enjoy a true classic RPG from a time when shoving them full of over rated CG crap wasn't the main focus.

. The first thing that struck me was that Lunar 2 uses CRI ADX sound format like 80% of Dreamcast games do which results in Lunar 2 having some beautiful sound. Another thing that did surprise me was that the game uses Cinipack for the FMV. This led me to believe that all the FMV would be in a box with awful quality like practically every other game that uses Cinipack. To my surprise, Lunar 2 has some very nice quality FMV. The intro alone shows this. Some scenes don't have the slightest hint of blockyness that plaques Cinipack FMV. Just check out the video link above to see how beautiful the video looks in this game.

I hope to get time to play this in the future but for now at least I can look at the instruction book and map of the area shown below.

This first print of Lunar 2 Eternal Blue also comes with a set of Sega Freak cards showing some of the characters used in the Lunar series. Just take a look. They're very nice indeed.
