Damn, I hoped this game was related to the Lunar series on SCD/PSX... unfortunately it's just a successor to Boktai.

Can anyone give me a quick rundown on Boktai? Haven't heard of it before, just looked up screenshots of Lunar Knights and not really sure what to make of it.
 
You should really play Boktai 1 & 2 on GBA. They are Hideo Kojima games and very very good, pushed the GBA hardware alot. I played through them both, 3 was (J) only.
They focus on Django who can use the power of the Sun and must do so to defeat vampires. They even have a slight metal gear feature of sneak/wall tap etc. I'd put them on par with golden sun/metroid/castlevania etc. but because of the weird name they didn't do too well outside of Japan.
This game looks like a futuristic leap for the series and even uses some of the same sprites, fonts, menus etc from the GBA games. I hope missing out on Boktai 3 doesn't effect this story.
Anyone who disagrees is a lemon.
 
Like...i have looked everywhere and cannot find a place to "test" this game. Is XPA releases only on IRC? I am not asking for a link here, just general info on these releases as they always confuse me. >.> Or are they one of those groups who don't give out links, but the file still somehow finds its way on the net?
 
Release groups give them on fserves.

Funny, when I went to school this morning I said to myself: "GBATemp will have Lunar Knights released when I get back!"

And what do you know? This always happens, I love you guys.

That said,

GNARLY DOOOD!!!

EDITZ: O_o Dl took like 15 mins WTF? Huge file.

EDITZ 2: Fun game. Very fun.
