Posted on June 3, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

Lunar 2: Eternal Blue is my favorite game in Game Arts’ two main game series. Lunar 2 is a simple, but effective JRPG that has aged as well as fine wine. In today’s Throwback Bit write up, I remember this timeless, all time PS1 great classic! The Working Designs Factor During the late 1990s to…

An Interview With the Man Behind the Call for Lunar 3

Posted on March 8, 2021March 8, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

The Lunar Series holds a special place in JRPG fans who were lucky enough to experience the titles.  Unfortunately, not enough people have had the opportunity to play the games.  Early confinement to failed platforms like the Sega CD add-on and the Sega Saturn didn’t help the series survive beyond the 1990s.

Lunar 2: Eternal Blue Complete Review: A JRPG Masterpiece

Posted on February 10, 2019April 25, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

Lunar 2: Eternal Blue is a classic masterpiece, and in my opinion a game that has aged a bit better than FFVI.
