Wild Arms promised to be some kinda Western (yeehaw) flavored Japanese RPG; it sounded interesting so here I am checking it out!

*WARNING* These are going to be sets of EXTREMELY long videos. I do NOT recommend this as being easy to watch, though, I've seen worse RPGs for watchability. I'm uploading mainly for sake of posterity. It's also in 60 FPS, and I'm all for having copies up on YouTube in that format. Delve in as you see fit.


This video has our three main characters meeting up with one another to go on their first group dungeon-adventure! (yay~!) Oh, and there's LOTS of talking all around. I'm the kinda guy who'll talk to every NPC!

Lolithia Tomb didn't appear to be too tricky... but those groups of multiple turkey dudes could put up a fight! Fortunately they were weak to a roasting! It's also hard to determine how best to approach a boss, because Cecelia's Analytic magic doesn't do squat. Also you never know if they'll be doing physical attack or magic attacks! So preparing your defenses is a whole 'nother thing to mull over. We do make it out in one piece, though, that's always a good thing.

This was downloaded from the PlayStation Store and is being played on a PS3, so it's the PSN version. I am also recording it in 60 frames per second and the game is indeed running at that speed for most of the time -always a treat! Not in the 3D battle scenes, though! Those are in 30 frames per second; y'know, the standard rate we're all used to.

 I'm all for playing on original systems when available, but I'd figure that the PS3 can manage a PS1 game though it's not using the same hardware. And it can! Mostly. There's one very odd glitch that happens every so often in which the music totally craps out and gets all muffled and weird. I think the first time it happens is when you get a cutscene with the game's villains discussing their schemes. It'll switch back to normal if you cycle areas/the music, but it happens a bit too often for my liking. Apart from that, this is a fine rendition of the game (as far as I know.)
