Yes it is. No issues playing it on Vita either.

If you want an easy time, just put points into the DEF skills when you can. Be prepared for lots of text. I wasn't so hot on the game but I know a number of people who loved it, so there's that.

Sweet! Easy RPG time for me!

I LOOOOOOVE the Wild Arms series! I'm still heartbroken that it (and Breath of Fire) seem to have ended after their 5th entries

I think my fave will always be the 1st Wild Arms, possibly tied with 5. 4 is the worst of the bunch but I still like it

I didn't want to do this but...

for mobile and pc browser! Please be excited.

Great thread, Wild Arms 1 brings back great memories. Of a simpler time, going to school, summer vacation, playing all those fantastic JRPG on that amazing console, PS1.

Wild arms 1 has a great story an absolutely amazing intro, simple looking greatly addicting.

I have to say then I only played Wild Arms 2 but I didn't like as much. Never tried any of the others.

Good stuff indeed.

The Vth??

really?

Ha ha... yeah.

I liked their weird attempts to subtitle using the sequel numbering, but that one really takes the cake.

Fantastic OP Seda! This is the stuff we need more of here.

As for the games: I only tried Wild Arms 1 a few times back when it was just a few years old. I loved the opening (of course) - so much so in fact that I used to show it anybody willing to look at it - as well as the sprites, overworld graphics and overall Western vibe. The graphics of the battles even at the that time were a bit too off-putting for me to fully get into the game itself though. A shame. If only I had discovered the game earlier perhaps.

But despite this, thank you for bringing the series up again in such a detailed and spirited fashion. Love all the music links.

I never did finish any of the Wild Arms games(only played the first two as a kid), but I wanted to say this is a great write-up. Excellent work, Seda!

Fuck, that Wild Arms 4 cutscene rules

I've always maintained that I'm a huge fan of the odd-numbered entries. I really love 1, 3, and 5. The music in 3 is especially amazing and underrated.

Dean is the most annoying protagonist in a game ever, though.

Same here. 1 and 3 are my favorites by far, and 5 is better than 4 (although I liked 4) because it refines the new systems introduced by its predecessor. It's only 2 that I really couldn't stand at all.

I think Dean and Jude are the most annoying because they were voiced. Rudy knew how to stfu.

I've been hemming and hawing about playing Wild Arms 3 again lately because I've been pretty bored waiting for Devil May Cry 4 SE, but this topic may have pushed me over the edge.

The only problem is that I already started a new game in Lunar 2...
