Would be espeically delighted to hear somebody's opinion that has lpayed through both the Sega CD and PSX version.

Here's a breakdown of the Game Informer review:
The Bottom Line: 7.5
2nd Opinion: 7
-Concept
The original Silver Star with a couple enhancements and missing story segments.
-Graphics
They're a bit better then the original Sega Cd version, but nothing spectacular.
-Sound
The sound is a good rendition of the obviously superior original.
-Playability
No problems here
-Entertainment
Legend has a decent story minus some plot points, and more then adequate gameplay.
-Replay Value
Moderate
Bascially the review was favorable, but the enhanced graphics aren't enough to make up for the nixed plot points and missing voiceovers and cutscenes.

The Lunar series, both for the Sega CD and PS, are one of my favorites. The game itself is simple but I loved the story line.
I felt for the characters as much as I did for the ones in FFVII.
Minor story changes for the Sega CD version vs the PS version.

I've already played it through on the Sega CD and PSX. The GBA version is essentially the same game, but without the animation. Its worth playing if you have never played Lunar the Silver Star before. Its a very good game.

Well the animation was just an added bonus, it's not the main feature of the game (as in some other series I will not mention).. I loved this series for the gameplay, and if that was MOSTLY kept in (They did change the battle system, you no longer have to move to the monster to attack them from what I hear, you just select attack and pick a monster!), then I'm all over this one.
