How in Wild Tengu's Name did we move from unfairly farming for items to Double Jumps?

I serously can't see where IRHP spoke of Double jumps before AI brought it up...

Great, now we're gonna move into difficulty of modern games. Great.

Who's for changing the subject to something we can't argue about right now?

because double jumps were a more orginal topic, irhp being dumb was a diversion

"pfft, DMC has double jumps, and thats not cheap in the slightest." This may be sarcasm, I can't tell, but damn it is true...

Okay, I guess I can't say that double-jumps aren't at all used for repositioning and saves and whatever. But like WvsW said, some games are completely built around the idea.

I was being serious.

Lets be fair who gives two flying ****s if a game has D. Jumps in it or not, it's up to the games designer and generally they know alot more about the subject than the majority of vgf.

Damn, I opened this topic up expecting discussion about the next Mario RPG, then I remembered what this topic was actually about.

Meh cut it some slack as it was the first Mario RPG, also when you consider how bare bones the plots were for the platformers were (and still tend to be) it holds up pritty well.

I still think it's the best one. Paper Marios are great games, but they don't hold up.

I'm still partial to Superstar Saga, myself, although I haven't got a chance to play Partners in Time (although from what I've heard, I ain't missin' much.)

I think that SMRPG just needs a remake to cement its place as "best Mario RPG". That's what Square is doing by remaking FF7 (even though i don't think it is the best).

I read it in EGM a while back.

Here's something more on it. Supposedly it is called "redux". Apparently, it is not as concrete as I thought.

"While a Final Fantasy VII redux has yet to be confirmed by Square Enix, its vapid existence persists through various and frequent rumors from valid sources. As such, the release of this game is to be considered possible, but strictly rumor." - Final Fantasy VII Remake -- Square Haven

They need to take what they did so awesomely with FFIV DS and make a FFV DS or a FFVI DS.

That is what my dreams are made of, man. Screw the continued milking of FFVII.

But FFV and FFVI don't have the same dark brooding heros, absurdly oversized weapons, Bishis, or belt and zipper laiden apperlle of FFVII and the rest of the newer games. [/sarcasem]

Sorry just had to whine about that. As for what Mario RPG I like best PM TtyD is my pick. I would have said SMRPG but do to computer I never got to finish it via rom.

you must really hate paper mario if you don't think they hold up to a generic square system and plot

not that smrpg was bad, it just has the boring generic battlesystem and not nearly as much humor as paper mario, which are like highlights of every mario rpg ever. plus all of them except maybe paper mario 1 trump it in having a more interesting storyline as well. and feeling more marioy

1) Douchebaggery does not a good argument make.

2) I'd use that description for PM and PM2. Personally, I can't play thorough PM anymore, or else I get bored, same with PM2.

What's so different about the other two? Hell, you could argue that those two sequels wouldn't have been as good if it wasn't for the formula in SMRPG that set them up.

It's all opinion, my opinion is that SMRPG ****s on the PM series any day, your opinion is different
