Aparently, Itoi has said that not one screenshot of the game will be released before the game is. This includes screenshots on the back of the game's box. This is via Tim Rogers, though. And he's been known to lie. A lot. So... we'll see. He also gives a different translation to the slogan of the game than Starmen.net does.
"It was bizarre. It was fascinating. And then, it was devastating."
Well... not so much in his newsposts. So I belive what he says Itoi says. But his reviews...
Like, aperently, he was homeless in Toyko for a year or so. THIS MAY NOT BE TRUE. Other people have called it an outright lie. I don't know. Tim likes to mess with people.
Like in his Earthbound review. They're are factual errors. He says that after a cirtain number of steps (about half of what it takes to beat the game) you'll get a call asking for your phone number, and more so that there are no timed events in the game. All the pizza delivers, Escargo Express, etc. are based on steps you take. Well, he's talking about Mother 2. In Earthbound there are timed events. You can stand next to a phone and not move and your pizza will be delivered after a set amount of time. And you always get the call about entering your name after you leave the Captian's house in Summers.
So. Did they change fundimental aspects of the game from Mother 2 to Earthbound, or is Tim just messing around?
Anyway, read Tim's post on Insert Credit. Exciting stuff.
