This review makes me want to play the game again, and this time go further than the prologue. I remember enjoying it at the time. I just didn't keep going. Sadly, I don't think I'll ever actually get around to it unless someone re-releases it on current hardware. Wild Arms is one of those franchises that has long needed a compilation remaster, but Sony has largely ignored all but Wild Arms 3 (which is a good game, certainly, but not the only one worth playing). Great job with this one, Joe. I had no complaints or nitpicks!

Thank you!

Of the Wild Arms I've played, this one is my favorite. I have yet to start 4, 5, or XF, but I will be playing through them soon. Right now, my attention is set solidly on Tembo the Badass Elephant, with which I'm almost done.

And yeah, we're overdue for HD remasters. I just wish we would get more than just remasters of the first couple of games in franchises, though. Like, we got Grandia 1 & 2 HDs, but what about 3, Extreme, and a translation of Parallel Trippers? I'd be interested in those...

Absolutely agreed. Honestly, we've got easy access to more classics than I might have expected... but also less access at the same time, if that makes sense. Publishing rights and such are surprisingly difficult for a medium young enough that these things should have been figured out by the time PS2 games were releasing. Didn't anyone learn our lessons from the movie industry? Apparently not.
