GameCrate: "Orangeblood offers a unique spin on the offbeat RPG formula that was popularized by EarthBound. This is very much a quirky turn-based game, but its foul language, hip hop music, ‘90s-inspired tone, and adult themes make it a weird, enjoyable curveball. Performance is stunted ...
Big parts of Lizard and Islands might be dull and irritating, Earthbound might be scat (the bad kind) and Thrakattak might be pure headache noise, but I can’t say those albums didn’t have an emotional effect on me — even if that effect was in the main to piss me off. I will r...
Yet, when it first came out, it was only available in Japanese on the creator’s website, and it didn’t necessarily have the clearest audience. (Who wants to play a game that feels like Earthbound, but without any of the fun?) As it turns out, though, that audience is bigger than...
Master Malstrom – I grabbed The 7th Saga a while back on your recommendation and finally kicked off a game last week, picking Kamil the knight as my main. For the first 5 or 6 hours, I thought its reputation as a ballbuster was overhyped. The opening area was tough, but nowhere near ...

EarthBound features subversive elements that poke fun at the wider JRPG subgenre through its cartoonish humor, using that surface-level childlike whimsy as a gateway for surprising dark meta-commentary on things like political corruption and rampant Western consumerist culture. 7 Mega Man X Capcom's...
we’re part; but on our own The arrogance, to think all this a gift; it isn’t But oh dear fellow earthbound friend, how generous a loan. Posted at 07:42 PM in appreciation, Arkansas, Crescent Dragonwagon, David Koff, Eureka Springs, fitness, gradual transformation, grief ...
Shuji Utsumi thinks the model is "very interesting" - Sega's Western boss has revealed that the company is internally discussing the idea of creating its own...
Clearly this isn't the RPG of my dreams, because that would involve somehow splicing together Earthbound, Vampire: Bloodlines, Spider-Man, inFamous, and a peanut butter cookie, but I appreciate the thought nonetheless, gents. Something Old, Something New? We're big fans of the folks over at...
