Ness be hitting puberty

 

[*Tyson*]

No way, nothing Yink makes could be more glorious than my avatar right now.

While i will say your avatar is pretty funny, that statement is WAY over the line. Yink's stuff= Amazing to say the least.

 

[Yink]

Ah, good evening Blue, how are you?

Haha XD, yeah he did hit it didn't he? :3

EDIT: NINJA'D by Tyson; thank you <3

 

[BluePSI]

hi, its the morning over here, 12 mins till school >.>
Indeed

 

[Yink]

Oh that's right! England...

I've been to London, about 2 years ago actually. I went to Wimbledon while I was over there.

I hope to go back someday, and good luck with school ;P

 

[BluePSI]

Thanks hopefully it wont suck

 

[Dajayman]

I hate you all for being so active while I'm away. And I read through it all and I have come up with one conclusion: you're all nerds. XD

I'm becoming a DK main because of ook. Until Smash64 personally gives me Ness advice, my Ness will not further evolve. But luckily my DK will evolve because I live near ook, the world's best DK.

Enjoy this video of me watching ook (Yink, Smash64, and Eagayleye know what's up already, this is for the rest of the Ness mains who don't realize how much I <3 ook): http://allisbrawl.com/video/video.aspx?id=26760

Don't get your fuzzy pickles in a twist, I was just saying nothing can match the beauty of Dr. Ivo Robotnik in a bikini.

You know you want some.

All I have to say is this: PINGAS!

This is my Yoshi's Island (Brawl) music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfAs2Z0ym_Q

Here comes Dajayman man putting us right back onto the subject of Ness.

Ugh...

 

[HailCrest]

ain't it typical of you ness mains to have a huge discussion while i'm at school :@

 

[BluePSI]

I'm ok for mah Ness, I don't want to evolve, I'm fine fighting my friends, winning sometimes and losing sometimes.
yay

 

[Today]

I really want to play Earthbound. TT__TT

 

[BluePSI]

So do I DX

 

[Yink]

GO GET EARTHBOUND RIGHT NOW D:< It's worth playing!

 

[BluePSI]

I know, but give me the monney and I will

 

[Yink]

*cough*there'salternateways*cough*

But...if I lived closer I'd let you borrow a copy of EarthBound. I have 2 so...yeah. ;C

 

[BluePSI]

._. lucky XP
And I know there are other ways, but I won't be allowed to download it XP

 

[Sync_]

Make a java-based Earthbound, put it on a site, and show us.
We will reward you with love and friendship.

 

[Levitas]

If you can't play it now, just remember to play it when you can.

Earthbound is a really amazing story.

 

[smash64]

who doesn't like EarthBound I'm playing it again its that awesome

 

[Sync_]

I'm actually playing it again too.

I have to level a bunch before I can beat all the sharks <_<

The story isn't amazing. The parts of the game that everyone remembers is the mostly unrelated chain of events that need to be addressed to move on. The Happy Happy cult, or Dungeon Man, for example. Without those strange situations and sense of humor EarthBound would be a really generic RPG.

 

[Sync_]

It also has insanely memorable music Arcade. I thought it was really creative. ):

 

[Arcade]

... Am I coming off like I'm bashing it? Must be because I speak in such a matter-of-factly way.

I was just talking about the story/plot aspect of the game. But yeah, the music is great. And it is creative in a couple ways. One little thing I really enjoy is how the enemies have really ridiculous names/concepts, like the Mostly Bad Fly, or a Mad Duck that "spins something around" to drain your PP. Or possibly my favorite, the Scalding Cup of Coffee. Who knew that a bit of hot espresso could kill?

 

[Sync_]

It kind of came off as bashing.
I just get very defensive in the topic.

 

[Trips707]

I'm also on my second playthrough of the game. I'm gonna see if i can level Eddi(Ness) to lvl 99

I know you're not bashing, but Earthbound's story (maybe the music, definitely NOT the graphics) is one of the reasons it scores itself a spot in top 200 games of "all time" lists.

Even critics admit (in America anyways) that the reason this game did absolute crap here is because everybody was looking at graphics, and EB's are LOW for the SNES. It wasn't until like, I dunno 3-5 years later when people deeply thought about it, and played through with an open mind did it get the "good" reviews it has now.

 

[Arcade]

PSI is thicker than water, I guess.

I love the game too. It may not be the "best" game in an objective sense, but it's got a lot of creativity and personality. So it's easy to regard it as a favorite if you can look past some of the gameplay flaws.

Depends on what you call the "story." If you include bailing out a down-on-their-luck band and stuff, yes, it's great. But they're really kind of puzzle elements IMO. The foundation of the plot is kinda weak (I am from the future, you are the chosen one, collect 8 thingymajigs and kill the ultimate evil), but what the game does with it is very interesting and original (the modern setting, etc.) That's what I meant.

The graphics are totally fine, they're simplistic but they work and the style fits with the game well. Kinda like Wind Waker was actually.

 

[Yink]

Any person will tell you they're low graphics. I'm not saying they're bad myself of course, but critics really DO look at graphics too much IMO.

The writing staff for this was great. Very funny and interesting. The idea of it being a parody of America still makes me laugh to this day.

 

[Arcade]

Yeah, you can tell how talented and dedicated the translation team was. It was top notch especially considering other RPGs of its time were still stuck with all sorts of typos and awkward lines like "spoony bard".

The writers were great, too. Often I actually wanted to talk to random townsfolk to see what they would say.
