The little "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelBOOP" sound when you save is the best sound effect in gaming.

action + mild shmup elements + sim city. i mean wow

the action segments are tough as hell too. like old school castlevania, though maybe even harder.

I loved Actraiser...until it was rolling crush'd by my love of SoulBlazer/Blader. I also really dug on the Dark Cloud games. $:-\$

The 'create/rebuild' ARPG needs to make a comeback.

First one was amazing. Ive played it a shit ton of times. Love it. Never finished it though.

Seccond one

Indeed it does. I play it at least once a year.

Whoops, I guess using lightning on pissed off villagers doesn't really solve their problems. the side scroller sections are starting to get pretty tough (I'm on the desert world now.)

Yeah, it's pretty nice. Would've liked to see SE/Quintet expand the concept.

In terms of gameplay, not just a loose religious metaphor world.

IMO the whole thing peaked with Soulblazer. $:-\$

I think most people agree. It didn't really gel with me though. Not really sure why.

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #15 on:** April 28, 2009, 01:22:04 AM »

damn, I was excited that soul blazer was also a sim city/side-scrolling kinda game. I guess Actraiser really is one of a kind.

Does the sequel at least live up to Actraiser 1's side-scrolling segments?

Bildi · « **Reply #16 on:** April 28, 2009, 01:37:27 AM »

I never played it but I heard Actraiser 2 was rubbish. Not sure if that's in relation to Actraiser 1 (in which case most things are rubbish), or just generally.

well i guess they all have crap taste

Great game at inflating your ego. Loved seeing the little aryan twins bowing and scraping to my Majesty.

I remember saving up like 50 bucks when I was 10 to buy ActRaise2 because the first one was SO PERFECT HOW COULD THEY FUCK IT UP

:'(

It almost got me back in the day. I think I had bought a game just before it came out or something, so I had to rent it.

I remember some magazine totally hyping it up prerelease. EGM? NP? Who knows.
