Golden Sun or Golden Sun 2?

[Shuriken]

I know this is a tough choice for all you Golden Sun fans, but which Golden Sun game was better? I personally liked the original better, because it was harder, but that may have been due to the fact that I imported my GS1 data.

[Lost Digi Girl]

I liked the second one. There were more girls, and once you got with your group, you could make whatever team you wanted. More djinn, more summons. I lied it better.

[Jmanunknown]

I like Golden Sun 2 better.

[Busterslash35]

Second because it was more into the storyline.

[Kris Planer]

i liked the 1st one, although i havent fully played through GS2 yet.

[Raiha]

The two games played the same, but Golden Sun 2 boasted a much larger world, where you are not restricted to travel by foot. It just seemed like a much longer game than the first one. many people will like th 2nd better simply because it leaves you with some sense of completion, whereas the first one seemed to cut off while you were still trying to play.
But i will say that I liked the GS1 characters more.

[Cardin]

I liked the Lost Age much better,awesome music,forging,HUGE world,more characters,etc.

[Undrave]

I liked the Lost Age better too, I liked the characters and having all eight was cool. I also liked the fact you didn't have to walk around all the time XD. Golden Sun was GREAT tough. One thing I really enjoy about the Golden Sun serie is the great consistant world they designed. The NPCs aren't just NPCs, you feel as if you're really meeting them and you care for the people you help, you don't just do it to go to the next dungeon and kill monsters. There were time where I wished I could have done more and see what happened next.

Unlike with movie sequels, there seems to be a better percentages of sequels in the video game world that are actually better than the first... the castlevania series, final fantasy (not sequels, but you get my drift), Mario Bros 3, Golden Sun II...

Lost Age had better features (like 2-element summons) and was longer, but Golden Sun was harder i think, especially at the end, Saturos & Menardi's dragon (cant remember the name) was far harder than Doom Dragon was, even though Lost Age left me with a feeling of completion, finishing Golden Sun felt more rewarding...
but Lost Age anyway, cos of length and storyline :D

[Eternal Alliance]

I liked the first one better because I find it more interesting when they first introduce the main characters and Djinn. Even though the second one had more I thought I was cool with five of each.

[Tao Ren]

The 1st one was just amazing... but the second one just blew me away damn it, away. It was awesome... I made 4 of my main party Ninjas... They were so sweet... And I like the fact that the GS1 Team joins up with GS2 teams.

[Cow Goes m00]

The 1st one was just amazing... but the second one just blew me off

I hope you mean It blew you away. Otherwise it sounds like it stood you up, In which case you date games cartridges. I ask you, what's the world coming to?

[Evangelion Unit-Zeta]

1 was harder? Star Magician+his balls was harder then Deadbeard man. But since it's your opinion, it's ok. I actually think the first was better, although the 2nd was supereior in just about every way, 1 was more original (well sort of) and you got to start off with Issac. :D

[2Viewtiful]

gs2 was more difficult & the map was further expanded than that of gs1.i got everything in both games with all the sidequest complete but i'd have to say gs1 is better & more enjoyable.yea evangelion is right,the magician was difficult since you litteraly had to destroy it in 1 turn or his balls would regenerate.but i still believe gs1 is better.

[Busterslash35]

You don't need to take him out in one turn, just attack his balls until the healing ones and the defense ones are gone, then take out the Star Magician. Also, I liked GS: TLA better.
