: Get a human character to 99 strength and agility
: Get a mutant character to 99 mana (PLATINUM)
: Beat the game

Wrapped it up! There was definitely a lot of jank and grind, but all-in-all a pretty neat game! Killing God with a chainsaw is an all-timer, for sure. As sketchy as it was, I dig the plot. This was my first SaGa game and I think I'm definitely going to need to check out more. Great pick!

Also, I ran into the "mutant stuck at 98 mana" issue. Does using the shoe to get that last point count for the trophy? I'm not willing to grind for it, so I'll happily take the L if not.

edit: Seems like the shoes are allowed (given subsequent posts), so I went ahead and gave myself the trophy. If it turns out this isn't kosher, I will accept my punishment.

this did not convince me to like turn-based RPGs. the random encounter rate was really frustrating when youre just trying to figure out a puzzle, and the 4th world was annoying as hell. i did like the different mechanics for levelling up the characters and the story was brisk so I'm not totally down on the game, i was just really done with it by the end.

I thought that was only a thing in the GB version and thus my fight with God was a slugfest across multiple tries until he did not cast Rebirth.



This is why IZ needs flags.

Game 3-7



Super Strike Eagle (SNES) - 1993 - Deadline 2/14/24 11:59EST

It it's realistic flight simulation you're looking for, Super Strike Eagle is sure to blow you away! And blow your enemies away, too! In astonishing 3-D flight, you'll deliver staggering doses of firepower in vicious dogfights! You'll devastate chemical warfare plants and strategic targets! And you'll fly scores of dangerous missions through several war theaters! Of course, your opponents are well-equipped, too. But with one of America's most advanced jet fighters at your disposal, you're certain to give them a warm reception!





Super Strike Eagle is an arcade-style combat flight simulator developed by Microprose, and later released in Japan as F-15 Super Strike Eagle. As a pilot flying for the United Nations, your sole objective is to bring various governments around the world back into cooperation with the UN. Each combat zone is divided into a day level and a night level; day levels are considered to be an introduction while the night levels are considered to be the coup de grâce and allow the player to finish of the last of the dictator's defenses.

lol I've never seen that Japanese cover. they must have really wanted to play up the "America" angle

I had this game as a wee lad and was very proud of myself for learning how to land again. I'm excited to figure it out again and actually make progress in it this time rather than play the tutorial over and over again because I didn't understand how passwords worked

UN Squadron was a weird localization of a game based on the anime Area 88.

I'm 90% sure I rented this as a kid but I can't remember anything. Looking forward to giving it a try.

losing a lot of arena duels now, I think i'm going to have to redesign a few of my guys soon. I think they're too small and it's stunting their stats too much.
