Valis strangeness

[Black Tiger]

What I remember turning me off about the Genesis version when I rented it was having to open up menus to select magic spells/attacks. The PC Engine version is kinda plain, but has nice graphics.

I read on a website review that the Valis I Fantasm soldier remake was the best of the series. I have only played 2 levels and don't agree. I really enjoyed Valis II, so now I am not sure what to try next. Valis IV always looked cool on the screenshots. How about a ranking in the Duo/PC Engine releases? Right now since I have only played two I would rank:

1 - Valis II
2 - Valis 1 - Fantasm Soldier

My opinion on this is

IV >= III > I >>>>> II

That is, yeah, I think part II sucked a lot compared to the others.  If you care to read about the details of what I thought about the series, here you are:

III>IV

Though i rate II was the lowest while 1 is above it.

The,remake of valis is good dunno but the animation seems arkward as how yoko controlls.

Still i do prefer to play the valis remake more on the pce then on the genesis.

It is a easier version of it

I think I like Valis for nostalgic reasons, and mainly for the music. So question is should I buy III or IV???

Both.  O:)

ok, so III first then IV for chronological reasons?

I'd say that's the way to do it, since part III caps off the Yugo saga of the story.

Part IV is more detached from the other 3 in terms of story (as far as what I understood, anyway).
