Any else heard of this game? Looks like a ton of fun and reminds me a lot of Earthbound. You know, "Earthbound", as in quirky humor and crazy style. Just check out these pictures of the boxart, instruction manual, and game....

That sense of humor alone has already got me hooked. I hear there are a lot of jokes aimed at classic games. I can't wait for Oct.

I like the sense of humor, but I read through the manual and something very much disturbs me.
Seems this game uses the same "levelling" system that Final Fantasy 2 did. And I hated Final Fantasy 2's "levelling" system. So at first I was all eager to get my hands on this, but now, I'm having reservations.

I'm kinda iffy myself, especially with the battle-system, so I'll wait till I hear the opinion of someone who actually played it.
Still, it looks rather interesting.

I picked it up yesterday.... unfortunately, I haven't had much of a chance to play it (aside from the amusing intro).

Unfortunately, I keep seeing reviews stating it wasn't that great, so I think I'll have to be skipping out on this one... >_>
