The screenshots are nice!!!

Are you sure it only release in Japan? If so, oh well....

March 18th, 2002, 05:54

Ya they are nice I am just wondering if I am gonna see any real improvement over my dreamcast version.

If it's gonna be worth my while to buy it.

There's very very few reviews about it.

From what I have seen tho. The game doesn't look any different except for a better font.

Grandia 2 was ported to PC and PS2. I heard that Dreamcast has the best graphics...Unless you own a hell of a nice video card (Geforce 4) :P

Hey DemiGod I'm gonna post some Screenshots of Grandia 2 off my TVCard, Could you post some SS of similar spots in the game for me so I can get an idea of if the graphics are more crisp?

You mean from the PC version? Sure, I could do that. I haven't gotten too far in the game though (I'm like right at the beginning).

Thanks a ton Demigod, After looking at the SS, It's really aparent that TV uses 60 HZ refresh rate and the quality VGA is obviously better, Wish I had a DC VGA card,

Anyhow. Here's a full screenshots. Aparently The PS2 version is a LOT more jagged than the DC version, and the DC does have some noticable jaggies.

Edit: Btw when comparing these Screenshots keep in mind that TV signal quality is significantly less than that of a Monitor so it's not as crisp. And it's more aparent on a computer monitor rather than a TV.

Good ole Elena

you should have this spell by now to give it a go. Spells in Grandia 2 Are actually FMV intergrated into the gameplay.

Ingenius yes?

And Millenia. Oh la la. One of my favorite charactors from any video Game.

Oh and if you have not figured it out yet (hope this isn't a spoiler to you) The Voice of Ryudo is Leonardo From the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie and the voice of Millenia is Ariel From The Little Mermaid =p

Does Ryudo say "Turtle Power!" when he attacks?
