#45. Earthbound
Earthbound is hilarious, chaming, and appropriatekly meta. Essentially a parody of American culture, Earthbound takes a look at issues like cultism, police brutality, and rampant consumerism, then proceeds to lampoon them with sublety. You think South Park is funny? Well, it is, but Earthbound marrys humor with the sharpest of wits, often reminding me of British comedy (of all things).
Alsom it's just plain fun. Random battles are stripped out in favor of a system which works similarly to the Mario & Luigi series, and battles are challenging from the get-go. It also one of those RPGs in which I had to talk to every NPC because the dialogue was great, not because I felt obligated to.
