greenween Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 The Shining Force series for Sega Genesis may very well be my favorite Sega game of all time. Easily my favorite rpg. Great characters with a decent story. The gameplay and character advancement are what make it for me. Anyone else ever play this?? "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime."

greenween Posted April 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 When my now wife and I first began dating, she would come over and play this with me. I had the Sega Channel(that's a whole different thread), date night was Chinese food and Shining Force, we would take turns on each encounter. I have all 3 of the Genesis games complete w/ boxes! Thanks Yo-Yo, I knew there had to be at least one!!! "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenween Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 So I just purchased "Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection" for the PS3 and it is incredible!! All your Sonic's, Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Shinobi, Comix Zone, etc. The greatest selling point?? All 3 Shining Force games!! Worth every penny just for those .I always prefer the real thing, but this is a great addition to your PS3 collection! "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime."

Rowsdower70 Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Can't believe I missed this thread about one of my favorite RPGs on the Genesis! I LOVE Shining Force 1&2, and Shining in the Darkness (is that related?)If it wasn't for Shadowrun for Sega Genesis, I might put this as my favorite Sega Genesis RPG. Shadowrun has those dang maxtrix runs that are just too dang fun and Tron-esque for it not to be my favorite.

greenween Posted March 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 That's awesome Row! I was counting Shining in the Darkness, it was first. I never played Shining Force 3 Lost Dragon, almost bought a Saturn just for that purpose!! Thanks for the info. "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime."

Sabertooth Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 I'm playing Shining Holy Ark and Shining Force III on Saturn. SHA, in particular, is an old school grind. Its a really fun series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
