We've been waiting for a real RPG that takes us back to the good ole days. This game has depth, strategy and the story is good too. The graphics are pure retro, as well as the sounds but with a modern spin put on them so they run smoothly with no glitches. I suggest buying the Deluxe version (it's only a few more dollars) just to get the soundtrack and the game Map...the game comes in two version (Spoiler Free and Spoiler Versions). Do yourself a favor - if you love old school RPG's and like the slow pace, adjusting each character and really knowing your party that you take into battle, get this game.
