I'd prefer the story of shining force. It's a bit more fantasy.

Ooh, tough choice. To me, the SF series edges out, but that's likely just because I've played more of them.

argh, hate shining force! all u do is go from the town, to dungeon, back to town, back to another dungeon. While ur completing the dungeons, ur fingers will hurt from button mashing (if ur close combat) or from holding the button down (charging a spell). And if ur injured, use a cheap angel wing- which allows u to go back to town and heal or restock on items and when ur done u get to go back in the exact same spot u left the dungeon.Fire Emblem rocks though! especially the latest one, Sacred stones or something. Wish ur guys wouldn't die permanently though :angry: These r just my opinions, so don't shoot me down with ur comments if ur a SF fan or if u h8 FE :angry:

For some reason, Shining Force freezes/loops right when that weird dark angel chick flys into the beginning of the boss battle, no matter what I do. It was fun while I was ACTUALLY ABLE TO PLAY THE GAME, though.Fire Emblem is fun too, though I suppose it gets kind of repetitive. Then again, both get kinda repetitive now that I think of it. I love both games, but I think Shining Soul captured my interest more than Fire Emblem. Then again, I never got to play Shining Soul all the way through, yet I've already beaten two Fire Emblem games. I guess that leaves me indecisive, once again.

i think your thinking of Shining Soul, same series. different gameplay. crap game for the gameplay style. Shining force is more like Fire emblem, but its a bit more fantasy like if you get me? i dunno. :P

I've never tried out shining force before but Fire Emblem is just so good. Better than the other RPG games i've played before.

It depends on what you like better, the classic rpg hero scene or the tactical element FE gives in. FE has much more story and seems much more appealing for most. While Shining Soul gives the customization that many rpg fans (like myself) would kill for. So its a matter on how much you like customizability in a character and if you like it more then basic Strategy or not.
