    Discuss Earthbound (since it's a great game).

    What were your characters' names?

    What was your favorite part?

    Did you love the music and backgrounds?

    What did you think of the enemies?

    etc., etc.

    The one time I did beat it:
    Ness - Doom
    Paula - Ally
    Jeff - Grem
    Poo - Spiff
    Having Doom as Ness made for an amazingly awesome final battle with Gigas.
    :D

    I don't remember my characters' names because it was a long time ago. The game certainly was fun. I remember fighting those damn gold aliens trying to get a Sword of Kings for hours. Never got one .

    I can't remember the names of my characters, but it really was a fun game. I thought the whole plot was just awesome, and I thought it was even better with all the humor tossed in it.

    Though it's not my favorite game, it's still one of my favorites.
    I have a signature now. Am I cool yet?

    In trying to remember my characters' names, I came up with these:

    Ness: Tyler
    Paula: Abby
    Jeff: Stu
    Poo: Poo

    Yes, that sounds about right.

    Anyway, I love this game. I was...enchanted! I think the music is great, and I always end up singing along, sometimes. Sometimes I got really distracted the the backgrounds in fights. The enemies were awesome, with names like: Mole Playing Rough. Ah, the good old days of Earthbound. What an a amazing game :D~

    I haven't played it in a long time, but that's the last game I've played. I still have it saved on my computer. I just need to get the @#&!@ broken antena or whatever for Jeff so he can make his ultimate weapon.

    Earthbound is a game I'll never forget.

    It was just so much fun.

    I REALLY need to give it another play through. I was going for a perfect file but gave up when I couldn't get the Gutsy Bat. That part is crazy. You need to go through the entire Magicent level up until the Krakens. At that point you have THREE SHOTS to get a 1/255 win item from a kraken. If you don't get it, reset and do the level over.

    I never got that bat. I did get the Sword of Kings though, it took about an hour fighting those starmen.

    Great game, my favorite parts were the mall in Fourside, Summer, and the Brick Road Golem.

    Some of the stuff from the game I'll never forget like that sign that says "about 70% of people go right at a dungeon intersection" whereas if you go right you continue the level, but if you go left you are treated with a rest stop.

    Wonderful game that IS getting another playthrough along with Illusion of Gaia this summer.

    That's a game I always meant to play and never actually got around to doing so.

    bert loses five more points in indie cred

    I played it once and never got aroudn to finishing it because I got my ps2 when I was halfway through it. It was great though. One of these days I'll finish it off.

    Used the default character names, yup.

    Earthbound was one of the greatest games of all time.

    I liked the music, the gameplay, the environment the game set and the longevity of the game. Not many RPGs can be that entertaining for that long...and Earthbound certainly fits that bill.

    I always liked the boss music...I kinda groove out to it. :/

    Now that I think about it I may have heard of it....Not sure. Back when I actually played console games I only played square games. So, I didn't No too many games out side of that.
