This thread has been linked to the game 'Skies of Arcadia'.
Despite naff graphics I am loving this Skies game. Picked it up along with 3 other games (see my £50 in cambridge thread) for a mere £19 and I can't imagine a closer RPG alternative to Zelda. Vast, expansive, encourages exploration and a deep story. In fact as storylines go it moves at a far faster pace than that Wind Waker game.
Great game, feels a bit like Starfox to play (not quite sure why) but of course i mean that in a good way.
If you can find it buy it. You won't regret it. Roll on Skies 2.

Well the new ship's systems won't be compatable with any of the old cannons because they are more powerful than the old ones.

Well don't use the Harpoon then! I don't need to it just wastes your precious SP for the round where he does 2 at one time, ich is where people with only one sub cannon get caught out and get hit.

Righto! Well, I got hit ;o) But survived. And that women will die :o)

To avoid getting hit by the red gigas you needed to use the harpoon cannon before he attacks you to put his aim all mad. But, the cannon uses like 14sp. When you only have 25. Thats no fun!
But still, its a great game and i'm gonna play it tonight till about 3am probably..

Moon Cannon, Moon Gun, Moon Torpedo and X-cannon was my arsenel. very powerful selection.

Moon Cannon, Moon Gun, Moon Torpedo and X-cannon was my arsenel. very powerful selection.
I never used any of fina's special abilites though, didn't need to when i could deal at least 200 damage per character using normal attacks, and probably even more using magic attacks like Pyrulen.
Yeah, by the end a combined missile/normal shell attack on a C point was as powerful, if not more than a Moonstone Cannon blast.
Hehehe.
Hehehe.
