RPG lovers on PlayStation and Xbox have reason to celebrate today, as Grandia HD Collection is coming to their platforms this month.
Angelus Victor said: The 90s and 2000s era of gaming is both nostalgic and underrated at the same time. So many series got their start, not knowing how the future of gaming would be back in day. Well,nostalgia is definitely the king, so it’s not uncommon to see old games remastered in HD so that you can play them on your modern console. Now, does Grandia HD Collection live up to the expectations? Well, it’s complicated.
and this after the director said that "they'd "have to make 4k textures if it were ever to come to playstation and others"
I'm still buying Physically. Nice to get these older games on modern consoles. I'm not overly worried about 60fps 4k resolutions and all that if I'm being honest.
The Nerd Stash: "NPCs are assets, not obstacles in the Grandia HD Collection. The music is beautiful but used as a backdrop, allowing you to focus on the game's diverse worlds. Characters from each game are charming, with the first game having a better protagonist, and the second having a superior supporting cast. The battle systems are still unique to this day, and these games are now fully democratized to all of the major home gaming markets. It's timeless for connoisseurs of the classics, and essential for those seeking a truly unique JRPG."
Going to order it now. I own the Switch version but I’d rather have it on PlayStation
Console Creatures says, "The Grandia HD Collection is an acceptable way to play two solid RPGs from a different era."
What about Grandia 4k collection? HD is 2005 technology
It's about damn time! I have all the Grandia games on PS1 and PS2. Grandia 2 is one of my favorite games and favorite JRPGs of all time. I am absolutely pre-ordering this from Limited Run Games this weekend for PS4.
Great news. I like Grandia 2 so much that I actually made my first game mod for it, which was an HD HUD mod for the anniversary edition.
(And I dare say it looked better than the filtered graphics we got for the HD edition)
Should also add Grandia 3 a very good game.
I heard this had issues when it released on switch. I'm glad they got to beta test it for us I guess
