"The Mana Kids are all right"

Now I'm stuck with Cheap Trick in my head :D

Nice review, and I'm glad because I told Ralph to get it for me and David for Christmas.

Btw, how does it compare to Sword of Mana? I liked the story in SoM but it took forever to kind of piece it together (who was who, who did what to whom, etc)
Deekin tired. Feet is sore. Back is hurting. Little Deekin feel like bag of clamshells bashed on ground repeatedly. Overall is okays.

Children of Mana isn't quite as story driven. It's more arcade action. You refill supplies in the single town, then pick a dungeon to go hack monsters in, pretty much. --Cary

That's what I heard...no biggie. Do those critical hits still make a delightful popping sound? :)

You're not serious, are you? Next you're going to tell me that 'Pinball Wizard' makes you think of Elton John ... ;)

I can't wait to finish everything else and get back to this one ...

Who?

See my joke, ho ho ho :D

Ok, I was thinking of the Cheap Trick song, Surrender ( your mama's all right, your daddy's all right...I see the reference now though. My mind splintered off as usual :)

THAT is an entirely different subect that I'd rather not discuss ;)

Hehe ... funny that I made an alternate cross-association :) A rock band I played in during high school used to play Surrender.

This all makes me thing about Joe Cocker coming in through the bathroom window ... and so long as we stay away from Britney Spears loving rock n' roll we're fine ;)
