As a naive child, I used to hope that there would be a Lunar 3. A ha ha ha.

And Dragon Song doesn't count. Dick.

Also: What the hell happened to Arc the Lad?

Storm Rider:

I could see that working, although if they did do that I'd prefer that they go back to 2D. As much as I love the DS, its 3D graphics are pretty ugly.

Although apparently Ninja Gaiden has some pretty impressive 3D modeling on the DS. Since OB64 had 2D backgrounds anyway, I suppose they could pull off similar quality graphics on the DS if they put enough work into it.

CHAKAN.

Seriously, if the game has you wait for 3 minutes at the ending to say "NOT THE END" then what do you expect? It's crying for a sequel!
Maybe the music could be a bit more palatable but it would be pretty cool. I'd like it less platforming, though, and more focused on melee combat.

Agreed about the 2d thing.  Seriously, sprites are only dead because companies are caught up in the idea of bigger is better.  Sort of like how movie producers constantly, constantly make rated R movies with the false thought that they do better in the box-office despite the fact sales show otherwise.  I am hoping for a trend back to making things FUN, and sprites were just more fun for some obscure reason I've never been able to play my finger on.

There's a lot of Sqeenix franchises that have gone downhill over the past 10 years.  Anyone else notice?  There's a plethora of great stuff to draw from but I just don't trust them to make a title worth playing.

Uh, the cash cow rating is PG-13. R ratings restrict the potential audience.
