The influence this game has had on me is unbelievable. It's my favorite game, and has inspired me heavily. This game will always have a place in my heart. The music fits so well and is so catchy and outstanding that I think it's the best of all. The graphics, although simple, are charming, like the character designs. The gameplay improves on EarthBound in every way. The story is the best part though. It is heart-wrenching. I would recommend playing EarthBound first, but this is a game you shouldn't look over.

i think people hype it up a little more than they should, but it IS charming as hell. part of me wishes it hadnt changed tonally from the first two games, but by the same token, the more serious storyline was told well! def improved on a lot of gameplay elements from the previous games
