Secret of Evermore was a totally obscure RPG put out on the Super Nintendo a long time ago.  One of the characters was named Bright Eyes, which always made me laugh on the inside.  Anyways, didn't work exactly how I'd planned...

Is that Cthulhu?

Yes it is.



I remember playing Secret of Evermore, but I don't remember anything about it. at all.

One of the Pound Puppies was also named Bright Eyes.

Bright Eyes was also the nick name given to the hero (name escapes me) from "Planet of the Apes" by the Apes.

Only one problem: the character's name was Fire Eyes, not Bright Eyes.

The origin of Bright Eyes is a Native American activist of the early 20th century who can basically be equated to a Native American MLK Jr.

Of course, the common occurance of the name in modern times is probably due to Charlton Heston's character in Planet of the APes, which every last goddamned person should watch because it's actually a really good movie even if you know the ending already.

On a third topic, Secret of Evermore is one of the best damned RPGs ever made and Square should be ashamed that they haven't ported it or made a sequel.

And, finally, I want to hear a Bright Eyes album made entirely where Conor Oberst is being kicked in the crotch.

Well there you go guys, this thread ended up being good after all.  As a fan of Planet of the Apes, Secret of Evermore (i'm in the tiny minority that actually prefers it to Mana) and Oberst suffering testicular trauma (I was dragged to his concert at the Georgia Theater last year, blah to the max), I most definitely approve of Ozymandias's post.

Oh, and Oz, what motivated you to use that name?  The old poem, The Watchmen, or some other use of that name that doesn't come to my mind at the moment?

All of the above. I love the poem, I love the character, and I love the actual person for being a megalomaniacal jackass who gained notoriety for no one remembering him.

My mate has this on the SNES. It's pretty damn hard (If I remember it properly). I coveted it muchly back in primary school.

It was kinda tough early on in the game, although once the dog's attack hits level 3 things get a lot easier.  They should have made it take a lot longer to get to that point.

Because what was originally a stupid thread has been derailed into something worthwhile, namely the discussion of crushing Conner's crackerjacks.
