In this month's episode, Rich (singlebanana) and Shawn (GrayGhost81), are joined by good friend and RF Generation site Director, Adam (bickman2k) to discuss his favorite game of all time, Earthbound for the SNES. When this humorous and cute RPG first hi the shelves, it went virtually undetected by gamers; now, years later, it has become one of the most talked about and beloved games on the system. We breakdown this title to see if the love is deserved, or if it's just another high-priced, scarce relic of bygone days. Before our gametalk, you'll want to tune in to the Concertcast, where we pick our Top 3 one-hit wonders whose amazing catalogs of music went virtually unnoticed. Be sure to log on to the forums to submit your picks. Will Earthbound first time players, Shawn and Rich's lofty expectations be met, or is this one better left in the goody case? Tune in to find out!

In this episode we discuss the in and outs of both games, what we liked and didn't like about them, and determine if they are worthy additions to the Mario series. Get ready for another editon of the Concertcast, a quick, better-late-than-never review of the film Ready Player One, and hear our thoughts on which library we would rather be stuck on a desert island with, the original Sony Playstation's or the Sega Saturn's.
