Shining Force 3 Voice Acting REALLY REALLY Sucks!
Note to game companies. Don't make the programmers do the voice acting too.
None ( ._.)

Shining Force was the first and the best strategy rpg ever made, go play your FF tactics f*ggot, just remember what game they stole all their ideas from.
September 11th, 2007
(0)
You mean Fire Emblem, which was out before Shining Force? Shining Force originated with Shining in the Darkness which was actually more a ripoff of Wizardry-style games. Seems to me that Shining games have a tendency to take ideas from other companies. Now, I love SF so don't get me wrong. But they weren't the first to do anything.

Hey, whoever said Star Ocean 2 had terrible voice-acting: Listen to them shouting out sh*t like Claude's "BURN!" They're into it, even if they suck. This, though. Oh man. It's not even cool awful voice acting, like Lezard Valeth.
