Just ordered a copy on impulse yesterday, it is a lovely game no question, and I don't care if I paid $30 or $50 or $100 or $200 more than the next person. I had a decent backup in any case, which I have played a fair bit, however, owning an original gives me slightly more inclination to really challenge the game, on hard like one of you guys mentioned. Although Sappire is 'technically' more impressive in its use of effects, sprite scaling etc I do hold Sylphia in massive regard for being atmospheric, well paced, with very satisfying weapons and enemies. It is quite similar to Spriggan so that makes a more sensible early addition to the collectable PCE Super CD library. I'd be impressed / surprised by anyone buying Sylphia in the beginning of their PCE collection - considering.
