    I loved the first game as the music the gameplay the graphics the sound and the storyline were all fantastic and it never got boring. I have been waiting eagerly for the arrival of the next game in the UK and i imagine it will be bigger and better than ever before.

    I liked this golden sun more than the last one because it added new things to the gae like sending info, traelling by sea and bigger and badder summons. You definatly need the first GS though if you really want to enjoy the game.I really want to see a third Golden Sun to finish up the story in a way that makes sense and satisfies all the fans of Golden Sun.

    The Lost Age will be far more expansive than its predecessor, and players have the ability to meet and join parties of other characters, with party members coming and going as the story progresses.

    Damn, that game was the best RPG game I EVER played... The Graphics bluw my mind, the sound was great, the Characters, well just don't get me started.... If the Camalote guys got any seens... Make a long Series like FF. And Make it for GameCube.

    This is one of the best games of all time. The ending though was a little disappointing, I was hoping that there would be a third one.

    I would rate this game 11, but it wouldn't go that high. It is the best GBA game out right now. I have an SP so i can see things more clearly. Awesome game.

    This game reminds me of Final Fantasy VII. They are both great games, they have a good story line and there are cool summon's. I like how they made it were you get the four characters from the first game, and how you can get your old game on the new game. If they did make another game of Golden Sun then I'm sure that would be a great game as well.

    If you liked "Lord of the Rings," then you'll love Golden Sun: The Lost Age.

    Seriously, if you haven't finished the first installment of Camelot's sprawling GBA epic, it's likely you'll be baffled, at least initially, by this direct follow-up. [May 2003, p.73]

    A thoroughly enjoyable game that matches its predecessor in every way. It's true that the plot never becomes as epic as Golden Sun hinted it might, and it's also true that the game will be a little too 'freeform' for some RPG fans, but it is basically the middle of a story - and thus plays as such.
