Lunar Remastered Collection Review – Another One – MonsterVine

Travis Bruno of Capsule Computers writes:

“If someone had said that the Lunar series would be getting a remastered release, many JRPG fans, even those that remember and played even one of them back when they originally released, likely wouldn’t believe it. Originally released on the Sega CD of all things, Lunar: The Silver Star and Lunar: Eternal Blue were impressive RPGs at the time doomed to a struggling platform. It was only until they arrived on the PlayStation 1 as “Complete” versions and made a splash thanks to their animated cutscenes that had accompanying voice work and impressive production at the time, that many remember these classics. Then, outside of a DS prequel many years later and a handful of remakes of the first game, the series vanished. That is until now with the Lunar Remastered Collection bringing the “Complete” version of both titles with various improvements to modern day audiences. With more than a handful of improvements but some lingering elements that even I remember from their PlayStation release, is this a successful remaster of a pair of classic JRPGs?”
