Fire Emblem

[*b*]

I just got it, and I mean JUST. It's completley different than the Japan Version! I won't spoil anything to those that want it but don't have it yet, but almost nothing is the same than the Jap Version, bu that's not to say that there's anything to be dissapointed about

How is the game? I heard it was like Advance Wars but with swords and shields in a medieval setting.

I have many things on my video game wish list and this may be one of them if it's that good.

I dono, i hear it's actually the 7th game in the series. I don't like to start in the middle of a game series, even if the games are independant.

Well, too bad. This is the first one to be released in the US.

I've played one of the SNES games. Pretty good. Yeah, it's the same kind of thing as Advance Wars.

Would you strongly recommend it?
Or just recommend it for people who like advance wars?

[*b*]

I've never played Advance Wars, so I wouldn't know. But I WOULD recommend this game to those of you who like strategy games. It has the classic theme, as well as the theme from Gaiden/SSBM, the alternate theme from Hyrule Temple. it's very good, but I'd suggest renting it first if you're not sure, but I think you'll like it, after you get past the first few stages

Sweet, I've got one of those unlimited renting passes.
I'll tell you how it goes.

It's the prequel to the first GBA Fire Emblem, the one that starred Roy, and I understand it was made specifically with the U.S. audience in mind, and it starts a good point in the story so you can get all of it apparently.

I thought so. I knew the Japaneese hero looked way too much like Roy to be Eliwood. hope they continue the FE series over here. I'm on chapter 9, and it's hard to put it down, even for AGN!

Where do you rent your video games from? Blockbuster? I don't know if the one near me even carries GBA games anymore
