    The greatest simple RPG in the world.

    Everyone knows Earthbound, and if they don't, they should. This game is simply amazing. You start off as Ness, a little boy in the town of Onett located in Eagleland in the year 199X. Ness is sleeping comfortably in his... Read Full Review

    One of the greatest and most unique games ever made.

    One of the most quirky RPGs of all time, its also one of the absolute best. Like every game, it has it's flaws. The first are the graphics. The characters, enemies, and levels are all nicely designed, but just don't have... Read Full Review

    Worth The Price Of Admission. Check It Out.

    The game takes place in year 199X and you basically have to go all around the world in an attempt you save it. Which means, going to a variety of towns/citys and all over, the game has so much to offer that one play thro... Read Full Review

    A SNES game that is extremely underrated, and extremely fun too!

    Earthbound was a very under-appreciated game for the SNES back in 1995, not selling very well back then. Unfortunately, I never got the game until about 2 months ago. But enough of my rambling, let's cover this thing. ... Read Full Review

    Best...Game...Ever...Seriously.

    I am very sad that this game did not sell well, because this is a great game. This game is different from other RPGS because it is not set in a medieval setting, and i like that. Graphics: Some people don't like these gr... Read Full Review

    This game is amazing! Better then the first!

    I just got Earth Bound, and I cant stop playing it! Earthbound(Mother 2), is the sequal to Mother, and it is far more improved. The graphics are more clear, the difficulty is more accurate, and the controls, well are pre... Read Full Review

    This game doesn't have such a strong cult fanbase for nothing.

    EarthBound. One of my all time favorite games, ever. Anyone who enjoys video games, new or old, needs to give this game a shot in some way or form. While some could argue that the graphics and gameplay haven't aged well ... Read Full Review

    A decent RPG, even by today's standards.

    Most people know 'Ness' just as that guy from 'Super Smash Bros.' who can throw an assortment of psychic attacks at his enemies, but not many people know much about him other than that. As you may have guessed, Ness is ... Read Full Review
