For people like me, RSS is a godsend, keeping us up to date on things we wouldn't normally have the time to check on.

The problems with the main site RSS showing old posts, and missing new posts, has already been reported.

What about individual RSS feeds? I thought everything on the site would have its own feed. Here are some examples of functionality I wish I had:

• Ability to see new additions to a game (I've "subscribed" to the page, but that appears to do nothing). Has someone updated a game I am watching, and if so, what have they updated?
  
• Ability to be notified of any replies to forums threads I've posted in.

Same problem. Furthermore, if the RSS feed doesn't accurately inform me of new articles/reviews on Giant Bomb, I am unlikely to ever know about them. It's important this gets fix for those of us who don't have the time to check the site on a regular basis.

Edit: Offending review has been remedied and creator apologized.

Ah, you beat me to it. I also vote to keep the "Mana" one and ditch the Seiken Densetsu one. Squares current brand for the series is "World of Mana."

"To cwilliams: Just to let you know, Secret of Mana is my favorite game of all time. When i first learned Giant Bomb was online I immediately jetted over to the SOM page to see if I could make this page my baby. And at the time nothing was filled out. So my submissions were pending and i went back a day later to check on the page. To my surprise and a little disappointment you had beat me to the punch. The point is, is that if you hadn't of done such a good job on this and beat me to the punch i would be the person that had edited this page. 

"Thanks for putting so much effort into this. I personally love Secret of Mana (a friend and I played hours upon hours of it 2p back in middle school) and it's good to see people haven't forgotten it.
"

That might be my favorite aspect of Giant Bomb: you can funnel your passionate nostalgia for a bygone game like Secret of Mana into a public resource that everyone can enjoy and remember the game by. The only thing that stopped me from going nuts on Final Fantasy VI and Chrono Trigger before we launched was knowing how much fun someone else would have doing the same thing.

Learn some english first, NEARLY ALL of the overview, see on the left side over there 

but then again its obvious cwilliams that you just took the wikipedia article your self and changed the words, Plagerism? .....specifically the development area, which is a DIRECT rip from the wikipedia article.

• I contributed a lot to Wikipedia. Am I plagurizing myself?
• You can only talk about one thing so many ways.
• Where are all the images you are uploading to games coming from? Did you get them direct from a publisher or capture them yourself? Theres no way they would be from other websites, correct?

I dont wanna see giantbomb sued by wikipedia for theft maybe you do.

I confronted the forum that the page was plagerism, and 2 people replying

P.S: I do love how towards the end of your post you had this imaginary conversation with us

Woo-hoo, I'm not the only person who loved Shogo! Been meaning to get to this article eventually...

Sorry I added them without consulting you first, but I did so without seeing this post. I think it will be fine however.

The names of the characters from the Japanese manual are Randi, Purim, Popoie supposedly, but overall the Secret of Mana gaming population knows these characters by those names.

Well there is no way Giant Bomb is going to let you make the characters with the names The Boy, The Girl, and The Sprite.

Wikipedia:

Secret of Mana, known in Japan as Seiken Densetsu 2 (聖剣伝説2, Seiken Densetsu Tsū?, lit. "Legend of the Holy Sword 2"), is an action role-playing game developed and published by Square (now Square Enix) for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and the second installment in the Mana video game series (the first, Final Fantasy Adventure/Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden was for the Game Boy). This is the only Mana game released on the Super Nintendo outside Japan. Most players outside Japan were introduced to the series through this particular game.

Rather than use the traditional turn-based battle system of games like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, Secret of Mana uses real-time battles akin to the Legend of Zelda series' games, but with the statistical-based elements of the RPG genre and a unique "ring menu" system. In addition, with its brightly colored graphics, expansive plot, and soundtrack by Hiroki Kikuta, Secret Of Mana has been called one of the greatest video games ever made.

Secret of Mana (Seiken Densetsu 2 in Japan) is an action role-playing game for the Super Nintendo. The game is the second in the Mana series of games.

Secret of Mana uses a top-down view like most 16-bit RPGs, but from there the similarities end. The combat uses a real-time battle system, with combat occuring in real time in an action fashion, while magic can be cast in the middle of battle using the games ring menu system. Secret of Mana is a co-operative multiplayer RPG, allowing a second player and/or third player (using the SNES Multi-tap addon) to take control of the hero's allies.

Secret of Mana is widely regarded for its beautiful and colorful 16-bit graphics, epic story, unique soundtrack, as well as its action oriented and multiplayer capable combat system.
