Yeah, that one is a movie, but, there will be a series that follows it sometime next year. No date is set for the series half of it.

The third Shining Force is a big game, and a lot of ground to cover since the game is split in 3 separate scenarios and then there's a special disc as well called the premium disc that has special battles on it. These special battles are not too bad in the beginning, but once you reach about battle 3 or 4, it is really not doable without a scenario 3 endgame party.

As for the rest of the Strategy RPG releases, 1 & 2 are on Genesis, a remake of 1 is on the Gameboy Advance, plus there is another one called Shining Force CD on Sega CD as well. I believe it is sort of a remake of Sword of Hajya & Final Conflict from Game Gear using the hardware of the Sega CD. The Sega CD version has a pretty good soundtrack too.

With SFIII, I have reached Battle 15, but ran into some trouble. The boss of the map is it's own challenge for sure. In this battle you fight the Kraken with it's 8 Tentacles, along with a couple of extra monsters on the map as well. 2 of those Tentacles are a bit more dangerous than the other 6, as they have additional attack range, as they can target two spaces out instead of one. The Kraken has it's own special attack range as well.

Just in case you want to avoid spoilers from the game, I added the tag to that text.
