@Glo the Legend: No, I didn’t know.

@Shiro: Console? No, that’s what emulators are for.

@Day: Typical American.

@Rakuen: Make me.

@issa-sa: Never played. Maybe I’ll cheat like Laguna.

@issa-sa : Earthbound was one of the most awesome games i’ve ever played… it’s very funny, long , the way it was designed is just different from anygame in the entire rpg history and it’s story kick ass !

The only thing that keeps it away from the top of my “best rpg list” is that it’s battle system sucks. It is one of the worst in the entire RPG history… it takes away all the magic created by the game itself , and it is VEEERY tedious. And you’re forced to keep fighting everytime, as if you avoid the most part of the enemies, you’ll have your ass kicked when you enconter a boss.

I started to play it many times… but I only managed to finished it when i played it in the ZSNES emulator with cheats, to fight LESS and enjoy the story MORE.

If only earthbound had final fantasy battle system and they didn’t messed so much with inconsistent enemy fights, it would be the best rpg in the world.

But besides that… Earthbound is worth the try, it is worth to enjoy, and then you’ll loose your patient in the countless inconsistent enemy fights

Commenting on this post either means I’ve played the game hence can’t help but suck u- err, agree with you OR I haven’t, so instead I’ll state another game of my own biased choice just to be an ass.

I’ve never heard of Crystalis. Now Earthbound (http://starmen.net/mother2/) on the other hand…

Please, nothing has anything on Castlevania, although I’ve always preferred the ancient arcade version. And, yeah, I know that Castlevania isn’t technically an RPG, but I really don’t care, since RPG’s suck (except Pokemon) – I just wanna shoot shit, screw all the strategizing and finding hidden items and all that crapola.

Crystalis, great game or greatest game?

I had no idea you could paralyze townsfolk, I’ll have to try it at some point. I should probably man up, get the fourth sword and beat it at some point as well.

Even though it’s heresy you haven’t played Ocarina of Time it’s pretty easy to get a hold of provided you own any of Nintendo’s last three consoles.

You know what game I always liked for some reason? Bubble Bobble. That game had a bangin’ soundtrack.

@jpmeyer: Stick absolute value signs around that. Zelda may have had negative playability.

@OBALLER: Ocarina is on my every-growing list of must-play games. I’ll take a crack at it when I’m done with the PS2.

@Asperger’s: The problem with your “unbiased” review is that you didn’t follow the format. That’s all. It’s ok to write biased reviews, as long as you don’t call them unbiased.

@Rakuen: Chrono Trigger is better. But Crystalis was good first.

@Omisyth: Wouldn’t you rather transform into a woman and lez out in the village of the Amazons?

@Glo: The FF’s are good-great games, but you don’t need the brand name to get something equally good-great.

@Laguna: Normal remedies won’t work. I’m weak against Blind. Sleep too. I’m also weak against lightning damage.

@Kyoin: Ain’t no Gio ’round these parts.

@korosora: Excellent question. As you may have noticed, this review was totally unbiased. But would you have believed me if I’d said it was unbiased? Probably not. So I drew you in by saying it was biased. Thinking you’d get a comical review, you kept reading. Then all of a sudden it clicked. You realized how much sense it made. And now you’re off to play Crystalis.
