Title: Cyber Knight (PCE vs SNES)
Post by: Xak on 11/28/2013, 10:43 AM
I first played the Huey version thinking it would be some sort of action game. I was greatly disappointed when I learned it was a cool RPG I cant play due to barrier of the language.

Later they released the english translation of the Super Famicom version. I noticed the battle graphics were different, not better, just different. Both enemies and your Mechs looked different and I think I prefer the PCE graphics style better. It was grittier and matched the futuristic galaxy much better. I know the inside of the space ship interface was different or at least looked totally different.

Its a great game regardless , a space opera if you will, anyone else know of any differences in these versions?

Overworld looks cooler in the PCE version. Battles look better in the SNES but I dont like the art style. Wonder if any thing else is different? Added?

Not sure what version this is from

^In the spaceship THere are two commands at the end, short jump and long jump. Short jump takes u to different planets within that galaxy. Long jump takes you to other galaxies


Theres walkthroughs if your playing the PCE. Just gotta use the SNES walkthough.

Quote from: IVANECFrom what I gather, there's a translated rendition of the Super Famicom version somewhere out there. But we all know that the cool way to play the game is on the PC Engine in a language we can't understand.
