I've grown fond of X68000 era Valis and her huge saucer eyes

Valis II is indeed awesome despite playing like pure ass. That game has heart. I love the crazy-as-fuck trashy story for the game on the 68K. WolfTeam was swinging for the fences and struck out but I admire the effort.

Otherwise, I'd say the best games are Valis III and Valis I (the PCE remake), which is probably the best-playing Valis game.

Valis III I think I prefer on the Genesis, if only because it cuts out that frustrating water level. PCE is still good.

For anyone playing the series they need to be warned that it is in fucking LOVE with cheap enemy placement. IV is the worst in this regard. A lot of the game is Megaman "enemy jumps out of the pit while you jump" syndrome on steroids.

if you like Valis' plot Valis 2's story (on the X68000 - fan-translated) will blow you out of the water. The game's jumping controls may blow you out of the water too, in a bad way. But it's worth it to soldier on!
