    I haven't played Terranigma just because I haven't gotten into ROMs yet.

    Illusion of Gaia was a good game. It was similar to Zelda with its action-rpg style gameplay. The story and setting really made the game though with it almost sad tones, such as the guy you have to beat in a drinking contest, Will's friend Seth that gets swallowed by that fish, and Will's Aunt and Uncle (or Grandparents?) that really were dead for a long time. Stuff like the skeletons of adventurers that didn't make it too. The game's setting was also based on the real world with locations such as the Great Wall of China, but the world is different (which is explained in the ending).

    Some things I didn't like about it were the text boxes. In some cases, like early on, because pressing on the controller pad would make the text box continue I would miss a lot of text because they would appear when I walked into a house.

    The ending was kind of sad with all the spirits and how the world and Will and his friend's lives change. The credits were good in that they showed every place in the game you visited. The final ending part, like Earthbound, made me hope there was more to play. Does Will and all his friends remember what happend? And why is Will waiting for his friends? Was he older than them so in a different grade? It was good to see that everyone was alive and well though.

    The last boss, Dark Gaia, wasn't as hard as it could have been I think. I never got all the gems because I would keep playing and miss them, not looking in the instruction manual the whole time.

    I have played Soul Blazer and got all the way up to where you have to take a airship to the final part of the game, but had to return it to Blockbuster before I could beat it.

    Yeah, Illusion of Gaia was cool in the sense that it was so messed up! I mean, hell.. you freaking have to play Russian Roullete with this guy! Your pig jumps into a campfire! I mean, it was screwed up! haha..

    The funny thing was that Toasyfrog listed it as one of their disappointing games.. hehe.. it was funny:
    http://www.toastyfrog.com/2d/feature...nting_03.shtml

    This is the best part:
    "The first hint that something was awry should have come with the fact that the hero's weapon was a flute, but the sad lameness carried all the way through to the very end where your character tragically (?) brings about the dawn of modern civilization. On the other hand, it may be the only game ever to reward you for selling refugees into slavery, which does make it unique (if unsavory)."

    haha.. like I said, the game was messed up

    bof2 sucked.. my characters always tended to do like 1 hp of damage to enemies except for a couple. You had to really level them all up a lot for them to do any damage.. it sucked.. Esp. when they made my Monkey guy fight that other guy 1 on 1 and his damage was horrible! There was no way to get out of doing it either, or to go level him up. You were stuck there (which I stupidly saved at).

    actually if you play your cards right and use your money on the right equipment, you can kick that guys monkey ass like slapping richard simmons across a pool table.

    Terranigma is one of the best games ever.

    sorta of the subject but the name Terranigma means mystery of the earth.

    Terra-land or earth
    enigma-mystery (well the e was dropped it fits better):)

    why wasn't Soulblazer on the list? was it beacuse nobody would vote for it
    Yarrr' I be a pirate. I steal gold then bury it for no reason.
