hey tight. i guess they did release one for psone. i think i remember reading about this. yet another game to pick up in the ever growing list. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sounds great. I'll definately pick them up when they come out. Seems the first 2 are coming together in one cartridge and the third one is still under development(?). The lead designer said something about doing it on GBA without the extra graphical features.. Was he referring to the nixed 64 version? |
||||||||
|
|

A cel-shaded Earthbound would be awesome... the problem with the 64 version is it was the typical jaggy stuff, but a truly cartoon-Earthbound... *salivates |

Yeah, it's a lot of fun -- Very easy but a lot of fun. Much more stylized than the original.. The whole thing plays out like a storybook with new pages for each chapter. You eventually get to have your own house and garden that you can grow different fruits and vegetables in with mixed results. There's also a little stable where you can keep your captured beasts and raise them to fight alongside you. Unfortunately, having a 2nd player(human) is only available sometimes.. One of my favorite features in the original was being able to play the whole thing through with a friend. |

They're taking their fucking time. ''Jay Worth inquired about a copy of Zelda, let's be sure to never order any more''. Fuckerz. |

Ha ha You're even more of a dork than I am. I may have lost some dignity prepaying for a Nintendo game.. But at least I have it now and am not scrounging around Walmart like so much vermin. You truely are a lowly thing Mr.Worth. |

An interesting EGM article I found on that site. I still have this issue, I can't throw anything away. And I want to kill myself. |

hey orphecks, do ya reckon the GBA player for the cube will be compatible with the flash linker? can you see the potential there? |

I'm a pack rat too.. My bedroom floor is a musty conglomerate of old magazines, shower curtains, German candy bar wrappers and animal bones. Doesn't that mean you're mentally ill? Or is it just lazy? Thanks for the review. Wow, back then the EGM staff had to write a whopping three paragraphs instead of one. |

ah. i have every EGM since 1994 i think. i really, really need to clean out my shit. luckily i got rid of those icky gamepro's a while back. what a crappy magazine. man, the good old days of EGM, when dan hsu would dish out terrible scores for half the stuff that came out. i remember his review of the "spice world" game went something like "what the fuck was EA thinking? shit world is more like it . 0.5" |

"another cool thing is, if you get in a fight that you're undoubedly going to win, the game goes on as if you've beaten the enemies, giving you the money and the experiece" *Shafts of light pierce the clouds and angelic choir sings in jubilee That's pure brilliance! There's nothing worse in an RPG than having to stop what you're doing to crush wave after wave of the same two rats and an earwig over and over and over and over again. The first thing that goes is the volume - Whoever composed the battle music is going to be taking a piss in a public urinal when they get the old fish line from behind. Mute. That's the only warning the game gets. After that it's out in the middle of the road geting crushed by the UPS truck bringing me more videogames.. Oh, the iron...Wait. Ye...No. I can't believe this hasn't been copied and made the industry standard. It seems like such common sense! Arghh! Just for this, the game is definately getting bought. |

Gamepro is a joke. Most magazines that cover more than one system are crapola. Nintendo Power is pretty bad too.. The layout and pictures are perrty but the content is zilch. |

if only next generation was still around. that was a nice mag. nintendo power is pretty bad, just official biased bullshit. i tend to stick to EGM. |

My favorite mag was ''Game Players'', the reviewers and letters section was totally hilarious. I want to go into the closet and read them now, actually. The music in this game is also first rate, there's probably a dozen battle themes and most bosses have their own tracks. You can remove the mute button from your remote if you want, though that would be a pretty fucking stupid to do. |

And about that... I have no idea, the only thing I know about Gameboy Advances is where to download the emulators! 60 bucks a game where I live, I'll be damned if I'm gonna buy them. Earthbound would be worth it though... |

game informer is alright as well. i've been getting that for seven years since i reserved my copy of FF7. it came free and for some reason they forgot to cancel my one year subscription. |

That happened to me with Computer Gaming World, though only for an additional year. Sort of odd, you think all of that would be computer regulated and flawless. Maybe a fly fell into the printer. |

ahaha. computer gaming world keeps sending me free issues to get me to subscribe. funny thing is the issues are always beaten up as though the mailman got into a scuffle with them. i once opened to mail to find an issue with the first twenty pages torn out and half the plastic wrap missing. |

Oh woe. I received an anonymous tip today that K-Mart*shudder* had several GBA SPs still in stock.. Certain of my victory over whatever it is that's always out to make my life miserable, I stopped at the local Electronics Boutique and bought two games : Yoshi's Island($30) and Warioland4($20), both titles of which were recommended to me by fellow friend and XLT playboy Jay Worth. After leaving the store, I made my way to K-Mart where, upon entering, I was rendered aghast : Humans with blue sweatpants and mustaches roamed freely and without shame.. Corpulent women with bleached hair and pink fanny packs bickered in the aisles. Off in the distance a pack of juggalos had managed to tear open a bag of hershey's kisses and were pelting them at each other like savages.. It was as if the store were some wretched haven for the all the town's lowlifes and welfare recipients. I felt as if I were a prince amongst lepers.. I finally managed to locate the GBA SPs without coming into direct contact with any of the noxious automated filth previously described and went to fetch the section attendant. It was at that instant that an indescribable horror dawned upon me.. After acquiring the 2 games, my total allocated funds had been brought down to $107 and 25 cents. The state tax in New York is 7% and, as is well known, the new Gameboy model costs a teeth-gnashing $100.. That makes the the purchase price around $107. "No problem" I thought to myself, "covered and then some". Alas, for some reason unbeknownst to any mortal man I was informed that K-Mart had decided to sell their SPs at $110. Was I hallucinating? Was it a mistake? Surely it was a mistake. I was allowed neither comfort nor console. How quickly I was brought to my knees.. After pleading with the manager for 10 minutes to no avail I retreated to the parking lot where I hurled a shopping cart through the windshield of a Toyota pickup truck. Now I am home, typing out this pathetic and most grevious account in a vain attempt to reverse my wan |

Cheers for the e-mail Mr.JC. I'll look the site over tonight. |

''I retreated to the parking lot where I hurled a shopping cart through the windshield of a Toyota pickup truck.'' You big brawny boy, you! And I can't believe you can get Wario for $20 there. You can maybe buy the box and the booklet for that price here, no game. |

What's the exchange rate? My mom made me mollasses cookies today and I managed to squeeze $7 out of my little brother's piggy bank so my morale is back up. Tonight I return to that squallid den of iniquity... defeat is not an option. |

... CERTAIN of my sucess today, I strolled in around 5:00 with a pair of sun glasses and my sexiest jogging shorts. "I'm sorry, we just sold out 5 minutes ago". Someone is going to pay. If I don't have one by monday night, you're going to read about me in the news. |
