It's easily accessible within a week, short enough to keep everyone interested ( and a good way to reintroduce this style of thread!), has easily identifiable points to stop at, plenty of discussion points, is different enough to Paper Mario to attract non RPG fans and is close enough to the sequal to get us all excited for it ( something that these threads should be used for!)


Do it!


+1 - also we could have a high score table amongst the GRPlayders, love LM :wub:

Can it emulate on the PC? Only like three people ever bought Gamecubes.

If we can get the poll added next time Banjo checks this we should be able to decide on a game and start playing it on Monday :?:

Oooooh, is it too late for another entry? Is anyone interested in playing Earthbound (Mother 2)?

Practically anyone should be able to run Zsnex (the SNES emulator) on any PC, and the ROM is pretty easy to find.

Earthbound was praised by the Zero Punctuation guy as one of the few JRPGs that can be played by people who hate JRPGs. A bit like the Paper Mario games.

What say you? Anybody? is this on? hello?

I like Paper Mario, therefore I'm in.

I'll also back Psychonauts, I never got around to finished it since my Xbox disc broke and I could never find another copy.

I'd play Earthbound, but my vote goes to Paper Mario. We should be allowed 2 votes.

I'll throw my hat in for Earthbound too. Earthbound is so bloody good, but I never managed to finish it (only get got around half way through).

It does have quite a bit of grinding in it though and it is very difficult in some places.

Okay, here's how it's going to happen. Remember that list DD64 made of everyone's votes, which some members added to? Well, I'm using that as the starting point, and removing everything that has had less than three votes of approval (I'll allow Earthbound as a late entry). So the list now looks like this:

Alpha Protocol
Eternal Darkness
Final Fantasy VII
Hitman: Blood Money
Killer 7
Luigi's Mansion
Paper Mario 64
Psychonauts
Theme Hospital
Timesplitters 2
Earthbound

Don't like it? Not my problem. I'll add a poll with these options, everyone gets three votes, we take it from there. Poll runs for a week.

The last time we voted on a playde, certain people got grumpy that the 'wrong' game won.

The choice of champions.

I voted Earthbound and Paper Mario, because they're the only two games I can get for *cough* free and I'm broke.

Wasn't the last GRplayde the Twilight Princess/Wind Waker one?
