PSX for me only PSX. Man I wish I could reborn in the same era again and live these moments again.. The nostaligia is really heavy for me when I revisit these moments.

You know what, the monster design of the original Wild Arms is actually really good.

Thanks for this, I never had a chance to play the ps2 version as a teenager and forgot about it. Time to play it on my next vacation 😉

I remember replaying the original wild arms back in 2021 then followed by the remake it was a pretty good experience the remake added so much content to the original but the authentic experience of the original really shines it really gives you the 90s feel of RPG and the OSTs are a lot better

This was a ridiculously good remake. It added so much extra content to the game it dang near made it a new game. I wish I didn’t have to sell it looking back.

It's a good looking remake for the Playstation 2, but the pixel art and art direction is unmatched in the original version to PSX! xDD

We need a Wild Arms 1 remaster with Wild Arm alter code F models 3d model in place of Wild Arms 1's combat models. That's all That's needed to remaster Wild Arms 1. Better combat models only.

3:45 Is it just me or is that "The Ecstasy of Gold - Ennio Morricone feat. Edda Dell'Orso", from the movie The Good, The Bad and The Ugly?

Honestly I love Wild arms, never knew they made a ps2 version that or I just forgot. All the wild arms games are decent but 1 is just amazing and I love it.
Would really love to see a remake off it similar to final fantasy 7 remake. If a company put enough time and love into a remake I think it could be spectacular.

Wow the music in the original version is infinitely better, there's no comparison.

[luciusirving]

In terms of puzzles and gameplay, I'll have to give it to Alter Code f.

[Spenerico]

The Zombie scene is terrifying in the original compared to the remake

Battle and map music i prefer the old one, but the new version rocks every other way

just clicked fullscreen before the video even started, and first thought something had gone wrong with the video filling my entire 21:9 screen xD

Love Rudy's triangle gun 😅, and hate that the remake took out Cecilia's booty dance 😖

[MiBrCo]

I really wish they would of added Wild Arms 2 to the Remake as well since they had WA 3-4-5 on ps2. would of been a nice collection to have.

[davymcdave]

IMO they remade the game too soon. PS1's still the most visually pleasing.

I only ever played the 96' PSX version, and what I mostly remember is the awesome opening. The PS2 version battle screens are a huge improvement, especially since the 3D in the original was really crude even in 1996. Side by side I prefer the 2D sprites on the world and town maps though. The PS2 fonts look incredibly ugly and generic. I never actually finished the game, iirc. It had a lot of promise but they ditched the western theme for a generic JRPG fantasy world pretty early into the game and the storyline got bogged down in dungeon crawling. I never played the sequels, but I hope they did something with the cowboy theme.

Always disliked the PS2 remake's music. It feels like it lost something when compared to the PSX original.

Battle was the only better part in the remake. But still good though.
