Golden Sun

I REALLY love this series! It's right up there with Zelda & Mario! The storyline is great, well, everything about it is great.

Now, the real reason I started this thread was to post your stats, the Djinn you have, the ones you'd like to get, and maybe some of the other Golden Sun fans can help you find the Djinn that you are looking for. Also post secrets you've found and the weapons that you have if you'd like. Just incase there are no other Golden Sun fans here I'm not going to post all my stats and weapons until another GS comes, because I don't want to type down all my stats weapons, and Djinn... just so that nobody reads it... NO WAY! If you don't have this game I'd get it! You have NO clue what you are missing... Oh, I give this game a 9.5/10.

Re: Golden Sun

It's your standard turn-based RPG, with a somewhat original summon system. I can't say there's much special about battle-play. The characters are a little bland, too, and so is the storyline.

But the puzzles are great, the music is superb, and it's handheld, so that makes it uber-good.

Re: Golden Sun

I really liked Golden Sun from what I played. I got stuck somewhere in the first one and refrained from continuing further. Great games though. The best RPG's I've played on the GBA other than Final Fantasy Tactics Advance.

Re: Golden Sun

The puzzles and dungeons are clever and well done. Can't say the same for the battle engine though. The Djinn system was kind of more cumbersome than innoative at times, but I'll give them credit for that effort. Other than that, the system was rather generic and bland. The story was fine, but the characters themselves sucked. And I found it rather sweet that Golden Sun 2 was actually based on prehistoric Earth. The culturism thing was rather weird though. Eh.

Right on man! I love this series so much I always get stuck into the story. Like when i get peed off when Garet gives Alex the Elemental stones.

Re: Golden Sun

That was for the story's sake.

Garet is a really obnoxious character though, not to mention really stupid. He probably gets the worst lines out of anybody in the game(I dread the introduction sequence). Eventually, I thought it was negated by Jenna and Sheba. But I guess they needed somebody to be uhm, well, expressive than dull Ivan and Mia.

Re: Golden Sun

I love that game! I beat both of them, with all the djinn, all the summons, and the whole party level 60+!

Yah, good series but it gets hard at some times. But once you beat it, it's boring...

Re: Golden Sun

I didn't like the ending of the 2nd... the parents shouldn't have come back. Sad endings are always better... usually.

Re: Golden Sun

I loved this game. I haven't played it in ages, and I don't know when I'll play it next, because it's a long, and heavy game. I don't think it has very good replay value. You have to pay a lot of attention to what you're doing when you play it. It's not just something you can casually pick up and play willy-nilly, really.

But the game itself the first time through is amazing. The music, the graphics, the story line, the dialouge (though there's way to much of it), the everything... It's an amazingly well executed handheld RPG. It needs a third one, though. I need to know if Alex died or not! He was my favorite character.

Re: Golden Sun

By far my favourite GBA series. Everything good about it has already been listed, so I don't really have much to say really. :/ Ivan is by far the coolest character in existance. He was raised by a merchant, how original is that? >_>

Two Sol Blades? That's not even possible, AFAIK.

Hahaha, I lost my friends game, I have to get around to giving that back to him.

Golden Sun was, without a doubt, the best RPG series on the GBA. Well, agruably at the most.
