Item Description

Filgaia is a world still scarred by an ancient war, and the demons who once nearly destroyed it are stirring again. Wild ARMs Alter Code: F is Media.Vision's from-the-ground-up remake of the 1996 PlayStation RPG that started the series, rebuilt for the PlayStation 2 with new 3D visuals, redesigned dungeons and an expanded story, and it keeps the original's irresistible mix of fantasy adventure and Spaghetti Western grit.

Three wanderers carry the story. Rudy Roughnight is a quiet young drifter who can wield ARMs, the Ancient Relic Machines left behind by a lost civilization, and who is feared for it. Jack Van Burace is a treasure-hunting swordsman chasing "ultimate power," with his talking Wind Mouse, Hanpan, riding along on his shoulder. Cecilia Adlehyde is a princess who slips away from her royal duties and can commune with the Guardians, the spirits that keep Filgaia alive. Their paths cross, their reasons for traveling shift, and the story grows from a frontier adventure into a fight for the planet itself.

Dungeons are where Wild ARMs has always stood apart. Each hero carries field Tools, such as Rudy's bombs and Jack's grappling hook, that turn exploration into a steady stream of switch puzzles, hidden routes and clever obstacles, and reviewers singled out the remake's redesigned dungeons and new puzzles as highlights. The turn-based battles were reworked too, adding the encounter-cancel system from later Wild ARMs games so you can sometimes skip a random fight, and the cast expands with new permanent party members, including Jane Maxwell, Emma Hetfield and, more surprisingly, Zed. Michiko Naruke's whistling, guitar-twanging score returns remixed with new tracks, still one of the most distinctive sounds in any PlayStation RPG.

Published in North America by Agetec, a small specialist publisher, and never released in Europe, Alter Code: F is the most complete way to experience the story that launched Wild ARMs, playable natively on the PS2 alongside the later entries. For anyone building a shelf of the era's quirkier, more personal RPGs, Rudy's journey across Filgaia is where the series' cowboy-fantasy heart was first laid down.

About the game

Although it is essentially a remake of the original PlayStation version of Wild Arms, Alter Code F brings enhanced gameplay, improved graphics, and an expanded storyline to the PS2. Players take command of three unlikely companions in a surreal and desolate world called Filgaia. The young orphan Rudy has a unique ability to physically bond with "ARMs," or "Ancient Relic Machines," which seem to have been left behind by a forgotten civilization. The runaway princess Cecelia can command forces of magic, and the swordsman Jack is adept at a number of trades. These three "Dream Chasers" seek their fortunes in the unforgiving countryside, and might just end up saving the whole world along the way. The role-playing adventure includes overworld exploration and intense dungeon-crawling. Wild ARMs: Alter Code F is compatible with the PlayStation 2 HDD, so veteran PS2 gamers with older model consoles and the hard drive accessory can load the large, two-DVD game program to disk in order to decrease load times.
