New Lufia Heads to Game Boy Advance

The Lufia series from the Super Nintendo and Game Boy Color is going to release another edition, this time on the Game Boy Advance. It's called Lufia: The Ruins of Lore, and it actually brings back some aspects of Lufia 2. In Lufia 2, there was a military nation, Gratze, that played a minor role in the game -- the biggest thing to note was that they were completely cut off from all other nations and were actually secretly plotting world domination (because, y'know, it's just something you can plot very easily).
The Ruins of Lore picks up with a character inside Gratze that is rising the ranks, somewhat like Golbez did in FF4 to control the city of Baron. In fact, the more I look at this story, the more it looks like FF4. Ragule, the character from Gratze, is trying to awaken a very powerful beast, just as Golbez was trying to awaken the path to the moon. A group tries to stop Ragule by locating magical stones (crystals, anyone?) that tell the location of the beast.
So if you're interested in playing an FF4 clone on the GBA, check out Lufia: The Ruins of Lore. If you're not, you still might want to pick it up, because Lufia has yet to disappoint.

awesome... i'm definitely look into it. yeah, lufia has yet to disappoint me so far. i'm sure they won't be copying every element from ff4, otherwise they wouldn't make it in the first place........ at least i hope they don't, and i shouldn't expect them to. | |
