|Comments=Completed the game from beginning to end with no crashes or freezes. Runs at around 180FPS when uncapped at 3x Native resolution. The hardware depth option is required to prevent light from being visible through walls. For some reason it doesn't work on latest dev builds which is why 1.4.0 was used. The NTSC-U release of the game has a gamebreaking bug where your dragon can disappear permanently. Use the PAL version to avoid this.

|Sound=SPU2-X
|Comments=Completed about 1/4 of the game. Runs very well. Use OpenGL to prevent some light effects being visible through solid geometry. There are thin white lines around HUD elements if you play above native res, and there doesn't seem to be anything we can do about that, but it's easily ignored. Loading times (and saving times) are ridiculous, but can be sped through by disabling the framelimiter. I love it when emulation tricks make games better!

==Trivia==
* The PAL version of this game supports multiple languages through the BIOS configuration. Implementation requires Full boot - "Boot CDVD (full)".

|Description=Light source halos can be seen through walls and sunlight lens flare is visible through mountains.
|Workaround=Switching to the Software mode and back with the F9 key fixes the light sources temporarily. To fix it permanently go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings and switch to Software mode by setting Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.
|Workaround=Seems to have been fixed(at least for PAL release)as of 1.5.0 dev 2246. Use the latest PCSX2 stable version v1.4.0(there is a regression in newer builds), and go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, set Renderer to "OpenGL (Hardware)" and enable "Hardware Depth". Alternatively switching to the Software mode and back with the F9 key fixes the light sources temporarily. To fix it permanently in all PCSX2 versions go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings and switch to Software mode by setting Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.
