Introduction

Oh Earthbound, a game made for the Super Nintendo so long ago, and still remains a favorite for some. It's still most wanted according to Nintendo Power, by fans for the Wii's virtual console. The game itself though is very humorous, bringing chuckles to all audiences. If there is ever a serious moment, and the tension is high, it's always eased up by some humorous scene. This is a game that you need to see.

 

Graphics

The graphics for the game were simple, after all, it was a SNES game. But they always showed the main point. If the cast was diamondized, they'd turn into diamond like beings. If they were Ko'd in battle, they're angels would follow those left standing, showing that they were unable to battle and were at the hospital. Though in battle, it didn't actually show them attacking enemies, but a flash of different lights, the battle technique with the graphics were excellent. That's why the graphics deserve a 9 out of ten.

 

Sound

The sound, an interesting feature. From a meteorite crashing on Earth, to the awkward, but humorous sound of a burp, this game has one of the best sound affect sets for it's time. The music, oh yes the music, is truly beautiful, and always matches with the place or event. This is one of the games best features.

 

Gameplay

The gameplay for Earthbound is like nothing you've ever seen. Smashing hippies with bats and pans to running from presents, it's still a joy to play. The only downside is there is a lot of walking at the beginning, and some are annoyed with never ending battles. But, overall, the gameplay is amazing.

 

Lastability

This is one game you will not just throw aside for good. It quickly pulls you in, and you will not take a break until you become annoyed that you lost a battle. But in a short time, you'll grab the controller again, determined to beat the boss. The series itself has made it to the 3rd game, and it's usually traced back to Earthbound. (though Earthbound is the 2nd game in the series.)
The lastability deserves a 10/10.

 

Overall

So overall, this is one of the best games I myself have ever played. The music is worth buying the entire game. The sound effects match the scenes every time, and that will not disappoint you. The gameplay is fantastic, and the story itself will make you smile. The graphics are great for the time and for the game itself. And this is one game you will play again and again. Overall, this game well deserves a ten out of ten.


Final Score: 96%
