I must be the only one on this planet who thinks that Earthbound is nothing more than an overrated, mediocre piece of garbage. I'll never be able to understand why this game (or any other game in the Earthbound series) is getting so much hype.

He's come away from his familly,friends,(*Cough* Loner *cough*)to get trapped in a machine! I paid more attention to that than Claus dying! :D
Anyway,being trapped in New Pork City sucked :P I don't know why,but I do prefer Earthbound.
It's a jolly good show.
Note:Barrier Trio do look pretty gay,huh?

He's becoming cooler by the second.
The story was awful, I loved the gameplay.SolarBlaze said:As far as I can tell, the Earthbound series is only getting a bunch of hype for the following reasons:
-Nintendo of America refuses to acknowledge it (even going so far as to remove the demo from the American release of Super Smash Bros. Brawl)
-Its storylines.
I'll admit, the storyline did seem kind of interesting from what I've played, but I just couldn't enjoy the game, due to its mediocre gameplay. I tried to enjoy the game, I really did, but again, I just couldn't. After playing the game for at least fifteen minutes (after I had done a few battles, of course), I got bored with the game and turned it off. I don't care HOW good the storyline is- If you have to put up with such boring gameplay to progress through it, then it's not worth it.

No offense (although some may be taken anyway) but Pokey was a acomplete asshole! He was a jerk in both games. Good Riddance I say, GOOD RIDDIANCE!

That was before I actually beat it. It was more that I didn't like how they just spring the end on you. It's like "climb the tower climb the tower oh yeah final boss coming in about 5 minutes keep climbing" "wait what about the final boss?".Julius said:LarryTheCableGuy27 said:I just beat the game, and I must say, the ending was just plain amazing.
You told me you hated it.

Not all games are "MASH THIS BUTTON AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE".
I don't understand what you're saying.
Obviously, you have only fought a snake and watched me battle foppies.Julius said:jaffffey said:jaffffey said:to not like mother is to not like new gameplay, I will leave it at that.

I don't understand what you're saying.
Mother gameplay can be described as two things:
1.) MASH THE A BUTTON AND YOU WIN THE BATTLE
or
2.) PRESS FAST FORWARD ON YOUR EMULATOR AND PRESS A PERIODICALLY

Actually play a game before bashing it. It makes you look like you know what you're talking about.
LarryTheCableGuy27 said:Yeah, the first level is basically press the A button to attack.
So are all RPGs before you get any good abilities. Symphonia is another "mash A and you win" game by your definition.
