Originally played this on the Sega Dreamcast, later played the PC remaster a few times, and it was my introduction to the Grandia series. I the battle system, story, characters, humor, music (my god the music!), art, and atmosphere was so good it was just one of those games I couldn't put down and was sad to see the end credits as I wanted more. After later playing the first in the series; this one is a lot shorter with less story and scope which makes it understandable why some prefer the first game, but I still consider it a worthy successor with some notable enhancements in terms of systems and gameplay. Got my girlfriend and anyone else I could to play it, and other than some gripes about the main protagonist being less than likeable in the beginning everyone loved it. It got me to seek out the original game in the series that was amazing, which also has been a formative gaming experience in my life and introduced me to other fans of the series that became friends. We still jam out to a few songs from soundtrack to this day, more than 2 decades from the original release.

I played it a long time ago in the 2000s on PC. It's strange why people vote for it? after all, there was a remaster for it as well as for the 1st part GRANDIA HD Remaster GRANDIA II HD Remaster
A masterpiece. Exciting, Heartwarming, Saddening, Despairing, Betraying, Hopeless, Angering, Redeeming, Uplifting, all of the emotions one could feel from a phenomenally written story that truly leaves a mark in the hearts and minds of all who have played it. I've beat this game so many times, I expect I will end up coming back and replaying this game many more times over the years :) There is around 20-35 hours of gameplay depending how much you like to explore the areas and talk to NPCs. I was pleased just when I would think "aw man, is it over?" NOPE :D TIP: Play on HARD, Normal is pretty much Easy. also, Millenia gang ♥

Dragon Ball Z: Buu's Fury
Dragon Ball Z: Buu's FuryDragon Ball Z: Buu's Fury is the third and final game in the series. It was released on September 14, 2004 in North America. The game focuses on the final parts of the Dragon Ball Z series (season 7), namely the battles with Majin Buu. The game added several new additions to the series. First, the game added equipment, which could be equipped to characters to alter their stats and provide various other benefits. The game also allowed players to allocate their own stat points, of which three were given per level. Also added was the ability to block by holding the R button, and also to energy block by holding the B button while blocking. Using the energy block slowly drains the user's energy gauge. Both techniques greatly decrease the amount of damage that is received from attacks. The game also added various other features such as fusions and the ability to transform into a Super Saiyan 3. Although many features were added, the ability to use charge attacks by holding and releasing the A button was eliminated. The dialogues used in the English edition of the game are very similar, and sometimes identical, to the ones used in the English dubbed animated series.
