That game is Live A Live, which unfortunately never saw a release outside Japan. There was a time, back in 1994, when Square released the second-best JRPG on the SNES, second only to Earthbound. However, Square wasn’t always like that (well, okay, yes they were). “Rehashing sells” has been their motto for the past few years, to the detriment of the JRPG genre as a whole. It’s rare these days to see the Square-Enix name within a mile of anything original. That game is Live A Live, which unfortunately never saw a release outside Japan.'

But i suspect this to be BS.'It’s rare these days to see the Square-Enix name within a mile of anything original. IE use up all your shells, fire the pistol and get the chaingun. I also seem to recall my brother saying there was a cheat where if you got full ammo for one weapon, used it all up, auto switched to the pistol and fired a shot you'd get the next weapon up. Oh yeah, if i remember rightly you have to play on UV to play the whole game, as Skill 1 ends at the end of episode 1 and Skill 2 and 3 end on episode 2. PS-Anybody think SNES E1M1 sounded a little like PC E1M9? I have E1M9 mp3 version on my ipod but if anyone knows where to get SNES E1M1 i'd like to make a comparison. well, awesome but not really music as such. After this we finally got PSX Doom, which has cool sounds but the music is. Because my friend had it on his PC otherwise, and he had no soundcard (when he did get one i was a bit dissapointed). We where very hyped about having Doom 'in our own home to play when we want!', for 3 days. I remember borrowing my cousin's SNES and renting Doom from EB for 3 days.
