00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.660
Today, we're talking pencil tips, 3D wooden lips,

00:00:03.859 --> 00:00:06.980
and mermaid tits. It's Wild Woody for the Sega

00:00:06.980 --> 00:00:40.280
CD. Hello everyone, welcome to Retro Gaming Beyond

00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:42.500
Presents Retro Game Club. We're your hosts, Joe,

00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:45.179
Eric, Ryan, and Jacob Vanderloski. And today,

00:00:45.299 --> 00:00:47.060
we've all been rubbing our asses on the wall,

00:00:47.219 --> 00:00:49.560
cause we've been playing Wild Woody for the Sega

00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:52.939
CD. Is it the Sega CD, or is it just the CD?

00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:58.799
No bro, it's the Sega Sega CD. It is called the

00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:01.140
Mega CD in Japan, so it'd be the Sega Mega CD.

00:01:03.100 --> 00:01:05.079
They knew what they were doing. I don't think

00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:10.060
they did, actually. Nah. Nah. I think we all

00:01:10.060 --> 00:01:11.959
know the Japanese are not very good at naming

00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:14.420
things. That's true. That's true. All right.

00:01:14.540 --> 00:01:16.900
Before we jump into the game, let's do our, we've

00:01:16.900 --> 00:01:19.140

ahead and discuss what other things we've been

00:01:54.019 --> 00:01:56.799
into recently. What have you guys been up to?

00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:01.120
I'm still going through Stellar Blade. Nice.

00:02:01.140 --> 00:02:02.719
Trying to clean up some stuff before I finish

00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:06.000
the game. I'm pretty close to the end. Yeah.

00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:07.659
I'm at the end of the game, but just like a one

00:02:07.659 --> 00:02:09.819
point where you can't return. So I'm just trying

00:02:09.819 --> 00:02:12.979
to finish up all the side stuff. Gotcha. So,

00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:16.560
which there is a shit ton of stuff. I remember

00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:19.939
if I said I finished try gun. Oh, nice. I don't

00:02:19.939 --> 00:02:22.159
think he told us that. Okay. I wasn't too sure.

00:02:22.219 --> 00:02:25.419
Yeah. I finished that. Um, pretty good. Ending

00:02:25.419 --> 00:02:27.960
was kind of anticlimactic, honestly. Oh yeah.

00:02:28.780 --> 00:02:31.240
But, um, still pretty good. I would recommend

00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:35.590
it. you know i was i was reading them and i'm

00:02:35.590 --> 00:02:38.229
like i don't know if i'm just not understanding

00:02:38.229 --> 00:02:42.030
or what but i had a hard time like comprehending

00:02:42.030 --> 00:02:44.870
what was going on in this story but i read some

00:02:44.870 --> 00:02:48.229
some some guy like reviewed the books and he's

00:02:48.229 --> 00:02:50.110
like sometimes the story just gets out of hand

00:02:50.110 --> 00:02:52.610
and it's hard to follow so it's like okay i'm

00:02:52.610 --> 00:02:54.330
glad i'm not the only one i've noticed that with

00:02:54.330 --> 00:02:56.550
manga sometimes like and i mean american comic

00:02:56.550 --> 00:02:59.199
books do it too where they just like get they

00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:01.379
don't explain things very well like there's they

00:03:01.379 --> 00:03:03.580
miss a lot of stuff and i just kind of get lost

00:03:03.580 --> 00:03:06.699
sometimes oh dude yeah this is the ending of

00:03:06.699 --> 00:03:09.520
trigon gets so bad with that does it okay like

00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:11.939
it's just like battle after battle after battle

00:03:11.939 --> 00:03:15.180
but there's like no words it's just like yeah

00:03:15.180 --> 00:03:18.479
he's just like trying to make like these cool

00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:21.319
scenes right yeah but he's not really like progressing

00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:25.030
the story but the story is progressing So it's

00:03:25.030 --> 00:03:26.729
hard to follow what the hell is going on. Yeah,

00:03:26.849 --> 00:03:28.930
I gotcha. And then, like, sometimes it'll just

00:03:28.930 --> 00:03:30.530
be, like, in one setting, and then it'll just

00:03:30.530 --> 00:03:32.189
jump cut to some other random place, and you're

00:03:32.189 --> 00:03:33.710
like, wait, what happened? Did something go on

00:03:33.710 --> 00:03:36.229
between here? What did I miss? Yeah, exactly.

00:03:36.349 --> 00:03:38.370
And Trigun's terrible with that, dude. It goes

00:03:38.370 --> 00:03:40.949
between. There's, like, three battles going on,

00:03:41.009 --> 00:03:43.689
and it, like, just randomly jumps between. And

00:03:43.689 --> 00:03:47.270
you're like, what is happening? Yeah. Ghost in

00:03:47.270 --> 00:03:49.129
the Shell, dude. Sometimes I'm looking at these

00:03:49.129 --> 00:03:51.550
pictures, and I'm like, what is this? What am

00:03:51.550 --> 00:03:54.699
I looking at? I love the world and stuff like

00:03:54.699 --> 00:03:56.479
that, but that is one of the hardest things I've

00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:59.120
ever read. Yeah, it was tough. It's tough. Sometimes

00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:01.759
I'm looking at these drawings and I'm like, what

00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:04.400
am I even looking at? I'm like, oh, that's his

00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:07.879
leg, but where's his body? Just random stuff.

00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:11.520
And then I have the special edition that has

00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:14.659
the... writers notes in it and stuff and reading

00:04:14.659 --> 00:04:17.339
those just make it even more confusing i know

00:04:17.339 --> 00:04:19.220
i have the same one you have and it does not

00:04:19.220 --> 00:04:21.120
help at all because he's not even talking about

00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:23.040
what's happening what the fuck is he even talking

00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:26.480
about yeah but yeah that dude's it was good i

00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:29.339
definitely recommend the trigon yeah i do want

00:04:29.339 --> 00:04:33.079
to read it it's not super long um and then i

00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:35.480
just finished tonight the dungeon crawler carl

00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:39.459
book the first one nice dude it was awesome you

00:04:39.459 --> 00:04:41.379
would love that book yeah i do want to read it

00:04:41.379 --> 00:04:44.220
it looks awesome It's definitely worth reading,

00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:47.579
man. It's pretty easy to read, but very engaging.

00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:52.279
Nice, okay. I know you would like it. Yeah, it's

00:04:52.279 --> 00:04:54.939
on the list for sure. Yeah, yeah, and you should

00:04:54.939 --> 00:04:58.560
put it high on the list. All right. Like I said,

00:04:58.660 --> 00:05:01.019
it's not super long. I mean, it's got eight books

00:05:01.019 --> 00:05:02.740
in this series, but the first book's pretty easy

00:05:02.740 --> 00:05:05.779
to get through. Yeah, yeah. But I definitely

00:05:05.779 --> 00:05:09.279
enjoyed it. I didn't want to put it down. All

00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:11.600
right, yeah, I'll definitely check it out. I've

00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:13.899
been going through some Pantera's music. Oh,

00:05:13.899 --> 00:05:16.579
yeah? Never really sat down and listened to them.

00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:19.360
Yeah, they're pretty good. Yeah, they got some

00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:22.139
good stuff. They got some bangers, dude. Yeah,

00:05:22.180 --> 00:05:24.180
they got some good stuff. I was just telling

00:05:24.180 --> 00:05:28.360
Ryan, it always seems that band's most popular

00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:32.139
music I don't really like. Yeah. Or it's not

00:05:32.139 --> 00:05:34.660
their best to me. Yeah, it's always the radio

00:05:34.660 --> 00:05:37.680
-friendly stuff. That's about it. Not too much.

00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:42.470
All right. Cool. Who's next? I played and beat

00:05:42.470 --> 00:05:47.189
God of War, Ragnarok. Nice. Oh, dude, that game

00:05:47.189 --> 00:05:49.529
was so good. I know. I keep forgetting we need

00:05:49.529 --> 00:05:52.990
to talk about that ending. Yeah, we do. We can't

00:05:52.990 --> 00:05:58.670
now, but it'd be too long. But yeah, dude, that

00:05:58.670 --> 00:06:01.149
game was dope. Yeah, it was good. I went back

00:06:01.149 --> 00:06:03.029
after, because Ryan was talking, I went back

00:06:03.029 --> 00:06:05.589
and watched a video on the ending, because it's

00:06:05.589 --> 00:06:08.560
been a while since I played it. It's not as bad.

00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:11.879
I didn't think it was bad. It's not as bad as

00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:14.660
I thought it was. Yeah, we can talk about that.

00:06:15.620 --> 00:06:18.779
But yeah, dude, that game was dope. Yeah, I liked

00:06:18.779 --> 00:06:20.420
it a lot. I still think the first one was a little

00:06:20.420 --> 00:06:23.800
bit better. Yeah, I agree. I did like this one

00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:26.839
a lot, though. It was good. Yeah, so I played

00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.600
and beat that. I bought Metal Gear Solid Delta.

00:06:30.860 --> 00:06:32.740
I've been playing that a little bit here and

00:06:32.740 --> 00:06:36.600
there. That one, it's pretty good. It didn't

00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:39.259
have, um, they locked the game at 60 frames,

00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:44.920
which is, like, fucking very taboo for this day

00:06:44.920 --> 00:06:47.000
and age. Yeah, it's kind of weird at this point.

00:06:47.100 --> 00:06:49.819
And then they don't have, uh, ultra -wide support,

00:06:50.100 --> 00:06:52.819
so. I know my monitor's overkill, but they didn't

00:06:52.819 --> 00:06:55.939
have any support for it, so I had to get a patch

00:06:55.939 --> 00:06:59.180
to uncap the frames and get the widescreen, and

00:06:59.180 --> 00:07:02.279
it looks so good widescreen, dude. Yeah, it's

00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:04.259
a pretty cool -looking game. It's, like, all

00:07:04.259 --> 00:07:07.720
the jungle, you know, environment and stuff and

00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:09.420
everything. Yeah, dude, the floor and everything,

00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:11.500
it looks good. I mean, I didn't even think the

00:07:11.500 --> 00:07:16.259
PS2 version looked good, but... Yeah. Yeah, so

00:07:16.259 --> 00:07:20.120
that's pretty good. And then I actually watched

00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:23.800
Solo Leveling. Oh, there you go. That's a good

00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:26.379
anime, dude. I think that's the first anime I've

00:07:26.379 --> 00:07:31.079
actually watched. Oh, yeah? I think so. I mean,

00:07:31.100 --> 00:07:35.399
I've watched Pokemon, but that's not a real anime,

00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:39.959
I guess. I call that Japanimation. Yeah, yeah,

00:07:40.019 --> 00:07:42.240
yeah. So I think this is the actual first anime

00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.079
I've watched. And it probably will be my last.

00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:47.819
I don't know. I'm not big into it, man. I'm really

00:07:47.819 --> 00:07:50.920
not. You're just going to find the good ones.

00:07:50.920 --> 00:07:53.300
There's some good ones. I just don't like the

00:07:53.300 --> 00:07:58.089
over -the -top characters. I don't know. I'm

00:07:58.089 --> 00:08:03.009
just not big into that stuff. It's very laid

00:08:03.009 --> 00:08:10.410
back compared to a lot of other animes. It's

00:08:10.410 --> 00:08:13.050
more Americanized, I guess. I don't know. It's

00:08:13.050 --> 00:08:16.149
not super convoluted with the Japanese stuff

00:08:16.149 --> 00:08:19.470
that they get into sometimes. Technically, it's

00:08:19.470 --> 00:08:20.730
not Japanese, it's Korean. I was going to say,

00:08:20.730 --> 00:08:24.329
it's not even Japanese. Yeah, that's why. Just

00:08:24.329 --> 00:08:26.269
saying, it's more Americanized. Dude, I think

00:08:26.269 --> 00:08:28.810
the Koreans make some really good fucking entertainment,

00:08:28.930 --> 00:08:31.430
like good media. Yeah, dude, they've got some

00:08:31.430 --> 00:08:32.850
great movies. For whatever reason, dude, they

00:08:32.850 --> 00:08:36.230
make great horror movies. Yeah. And they have

00:08:36.230 --> 00:08:39.950
great, like, zombie iterations, like zombie shows

00:08:39.950 --> 00:08:42.389
and zombie movies. Train to Busan, that's Korean,

00:08:42.529 --> 00:08:44.629
isn't it? Yeah, dude, that's such a... That's

00:08:44.629 --> 00:08:46.269
a good one. Yeah, Busan, yeah, that's such a

00:08:46.269 --> 00:08:48.029
great Korean movie. And then they have some kind

00:08:48.029 --> 00:08:51.830
of, like, high school zombie show or something,

00:08:51.830 --> 00:08:53.639
too. Yeah, what was that called? I don't remember.

00:08:54.139 --> 00:08:56.379
Yeah, I watched that too. That was a while ago,

00:08:56.500 --> 00:08:58.860
but dude, that was good. It was actually pretty

00:08:58.860 --> 00:09:01.580
good. There's a set of movies called Crime City.

00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:04.480
Have you seen those? They're like action movies,

00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:07.720
but they're fucking good, dude. They're really

00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:10.399
good. Oh, yeah. I forget the actor's name. He's

00:09:10.399 --> 00:09:13.779
like a pretty popular Korean actor guy, but man,

00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:16.299
they're really good movies. Check them out. Crime

00:09:16.299 --> 00:09:20.480
City. Okay. Dude, it's so funny, dude. Korean

00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:22.799
media, I think, is more popular here than it

00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:26.200
is over there. Probably, yeah. I'm serious. When

00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:28.299
I was over there, they didn't really advertise

00:09:28.299 --> 00:09:31.159
it. From what I've seen, I didn't see a lot of

00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:35.559
advertisements from movies or anything like that.

00:09:35.899 --> 00:09:40.179
I've been to Seoul a couple times. They may not

00:09:40.179 --> 00:09:43.320
advertise like they do over here. Yeah, I mean,

00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.340
true. It's mostly like soju and beer and stuff.

00:09:47.520 --> 00:09:50.600
if i'm being if i'm being honest well i mean

00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.779
to be fair you were on the american base which

00:09:52.779 --> 00:09:54.659
i mean what are they going to be selling no i

00:09:54.659 --> 00:09:57.480
mean everywhere i mean everywhere i went even

00:09:57.480 --> 00:10:03.100
in seoul yeah so i forgot what their that beer

00:10:03.100 --> 00:10:06.080
company is but they there's a huge beer company

00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:10.360
over there um i thought that was a is it the

00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:13.649
general Jinro's the soju. Yeah, that's the soju.

00:10:13.769 --> 00:10:15.669
Oh, my bad. That's soju. The one with the frog.

00:10:15.830 --> 00:10:18.409
That's soju. That's everywhere, too. Frog. But

00:10:18.409 --> 00:10:20.509
yeah, they have a beer over there, which I forgot.

00:10:20.690 --> 00:10:22.450
Dude, it's been like four or five years since

00:10:22.450 --> 00:10:25.029
I've been there. Yeah. I want that frog sign.

00:10:25.909 --> 00:10:29.289
Oh, yeah, that's right. Dude, that thing is awesome.

00:10:30.350 --> 00:10:32.710
What is it? It says a toad, isn't it? I think

00:10:32.710 --> 00:10:36.110
it's, yeah, technically a toad, but it's a frog.

00:10:36.190 --> 00:10:39.509
Whatever. It's the same thing. Dude, they make

00:10:39.509 --> 00:10:42.309
some good stuff. Yep, I agree. I don't know.

00:10:42.350 --> 00:10:44.750
We'll see. I might watch some other stuff. I

00:10:44.750 --> 00:10:48.610
don't know. You're telling me to read over watching

00:10:48.610 --> 00:10:50.309
some of them. Jerry keeps telling me to watch

00:10:50.309 --> 00:10:53.809
Cyberpunk. It's short. It is on my list of watch.

00:10:54.129 --> 00:10:57.450
Yeah, I just, I don't know. You probably like

00:10:57.450 --> 00:11:01.210
Initial D since it's cars. Yeah, I know. That's

00:11:01.210 --> 00:11:02.889
another one I want to get into. You probably

00:11:02.889 --> 00:11:04.610
like that one. I mean, you can read that one

00:11:04.610 --> 00:11:07.230
too. Yeah. I've been reading. I've read some

00:11:07.230 --> 00:11:09.679
of it. I just don't have a lot of attention span

00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:12.899
for media anymore. I don't know. I never watched

00:11:12.899 --> 00:11:16.879
a lot of TV stuff, so. No. I'm saying, dude,

00:11:16.980 --> 00:11:19.960
if I can make it through the entirety of something,

00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:22.440
you probably can do it way better than I can.

00:11:23.019 --> 00:11:25.879
Yeah, that's fair. I'm saying. Cowboy Bebop was

00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:27.419
pretty good, man. I think you would enjoy it.

00:11:27.820 --> 00:11:29.259
Yeah, that's one I need to watch. It's short.

00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:32.100
It's easy. It's easy to watch. It's short. It's

00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:35.679
not that long. I mean, I just started so leveling

00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:38.870
because I just. knew the concept and I was like,

00:11:38.950 --> 00:11:43.230
dude, that sounds awesome. Yeah, it's good. But

00:11:43.230 --> 00:11:45.529
now they're doing something stupid with it now.

00:11:45.590 --> 00:11:47.049
They're not even coming out with a new season.

00:11:47.129 --> 00:11:49.330
It's going to be a movie. That's just what they're

00:11:49.330 --> 00:11:51.830
doing with animes. I mean, they've done that

00:11:51.830 --> 00:11:53.730
for a long time anyway, the OVAs or whatever.

00:11:53.850 --> 00:11:55.850
Yeah, they've always done that. It's just stupid

00:11:55.850 --> 00:11:59.830
though. Well, Chainsaw Man and Demon Slayer just

00:11:59.830 --> 00:12:03.250
had one. And I think Demon Slayer is getting

00:12:03.250 --> 00:12:07.159
a second one. Everybody else tells me to watch

00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:10.320
Attack on Titan 2. Yeah, I know. It's pretty

00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:12.980
good. It's definitely way more over the top.

00:12:12.980 --> 00:12:14.879
Everybody says if you watch that and everything

00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:18.419
after you watch, it's ruined. Because nothing

00:12:18.419 --> 00:12:20.539
compares to Attack on Titan. I wouldn't agree

00:12:20.539 --> 00:12:24.860
with that at all. I've heard that a lot. I mean,

00:12:24.860 --> 00:12:27.679
it's good, but... It's long, isn't it? It's three

00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:30.460
seasons? It's like 100 episodes, I think. Yeah,

00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:33.110
dude, that's insane. I mean, that's not too bad.

00:12:33.330 --> 00:12:35.929
But I will say there's no... It doesn't, like...

00:12:35.929 --> 00:12:37.850
It's always going. It never, like, dragged...

00:12:37.850 --> 00:12:39.409
I never felt like it dragged on. You know what

00:12:39.409 --> 00:12:41.629
I mean? Yeah. Like, it actually kept going with

00:12:41.629 --> 00:12:43.909
the pace and making... Like, there was always

00:12:43.909 --> 00:12:45.529
something like, oh, damn, oh, shit, you know?

00:12:45.649 --> 00:12:46.950
Like, it was actually pretty good with that.

00:12:47.929 --> 00:12:49.769
Like, a lot of animes will just frickin' drag

00:12:49.769 --> 00:12:53.090
on. You're like, come on, Jesus. Like, nothing's

00:12:53.090 --> 00:12:56.659
happening. Yeah. I remember Dragon Ball Z sometimes

00:12:56.659 --> 00:13:00.039
with just like 10 episodes of one fight. Yeah,

00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:04.700
just one fight is like an hour worth. Yeah, most

00:13:04.700 --> 00:13:06.980
of it's just filler. See, that's how the Trigun

00:13:06.980 --> 00:13:09.320
felt when I was reading it. It was like three

00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:12.620
books worth of one fight. I'm like, is this going

00:13:12.620 --> 00:13:14.519
to get to an end or what? Yeah, that's crazy.

00:13:15.899 --> 00:13:20.399
That's ridiculous. I think there's two long shows

00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:23.179
that I've ever finished, and I think that was

00:13:23.179 --> 00:13:26.590
it. Yeah. One was Breaking Bad and the other

00:13:26.590 --> 00:13:28.950
one was The Office. Oh, yeah. What about Walking

00:13:28.950 --> 00:13:32.049
Dead? Oh, Walking Dead, yeah. And I didn't even

00:13:32.049 --> 00:13:35.350
really finish that. Oh, yeah. I mean, we started

00:13:35.350 --> 00:13:37.750
watching it when it came out and then I stopped

00:13:37.750 --> 00:13:41.070
after, I don't know, I stopped after a while.

00:13:41.169 --> 00:13:43.269
I stopped two seasons before it ended and I didn't

00:13:43.269 --> 00:13:46.110
even finish it until two years after the show

00:13:46.110 --> 00:13:51.570
ended. Oh, yeah, okay. So, because I just have

00:13:51.570 --> 00:13:54.750
to, go back into it but I think I started from

00:13:54.750 --> 00:13:59.269
the beginning and then yeah left off but but

00:13:59.269 --> 00:14:02.230
I am glad I read the comics yeah dude I'm so

00:14:02.230 --> 00:14:04.129
glad I did that because that was one thing I

00:14:04.129 --> 00:14:07.610
wanted to do for a long time yeah and it was

00:14:07.610 --> 00:14:11.830
it was worth it so but I think that's it bro

00:14:11.830 --> 00:14:16.909
alright Jacob uh slowly going through the Silent

00:14:16.909 --> 00:14:20.929
Hills I um never finished so I beat Downpour

00:14:21.669 --> 00:14:23.950
it's probably my least favorite so far it's just

00:14:23.950 --> 00:14:27.129
you said that last time did i say that i think

00:14:27.129 --> 00:14:29.690
i was playing downpour but i don't i didn't i

00:14:29.690 --> 00:14:31.950
don't think i said i beat it though okay oh okay

00:14:31.950 --> 00:14:35.769
yeah true so i beat it it's probably my least

00:14:35.769 --> 00:14:40.710
favorite it's just kind of uninspired i guess

00:14:40.710 --> 00:14:43.269
you could say aside from that i started playing

00:14:43.269 --> 00:14:46.629
book of memories and uh it's it's really not

00:14:46.629 --> 00:14:48.509
even a silent hill game it's a dungeon crawler

00:14:48.509 --> 00:14:52.389
but um that's the vita one right Yeah, it's not

00:14:52.389 --> 00:14:56.350
bad. I only beat the first two levels so far.

00:14:57.549 --> 00:14:59.649
I think the only thing about this game is it

00:14:59.649 --> 00:15:02.289
might get repetitive. I don't know if it's going

00:15:02.289 --> 00:15:06.110
to spice things up in the later levels, but I

00:15:06.110 --> 00:15:09.450
can only see this formula working so well. Yeah,

00:15:09.549 --> 00:15:11.230
I mean, that's how sometimes the dungeon crawlers

00:15:11.230 --> 00:15:14.950
are. Yeah, I mean, I'll keep playing it just

00:15:14.950 --> 00:15:17.490
to see where it leads to. And then I got to go

00:15:17.490 --> 00:15:19.590
back and beat Silent Hill 4 because that's one

00:15:19.590 --> 00:15:22.320
I never... I played it a little bit a while ago,

00:15:22.419 --> 00:15:26.659
but I never played it. The room, yeah. You crawl

00:15:26.659 --> 00:15:28.820
into a hole in your bathroom, that's all I know.

00:15:29.940 --> 00:15:33.679
Yep. And then I want to play the short message

00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:38.000
whenever I can. That was okay. Yeah, we played

00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:42.279
that. It was fine. I mean, it's free, so. Yeah,

00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:44.860
and it was only like an hour long, I think. Yeah.

00:15:45.399 --> 00:15:48.240
It was mediocre. Yeah, it was alright. Aside

00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:50.899
from Silent Hill, I played The Outer Worlds 2.

00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:55.779
That was pretty fun. It felt kind of short, though.

00:15:56.340 --> 00:15:58.600
You played the first one? Yeah, I played the

00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:00.799
first one. The first one was pretty good as well.

00:16:01.299 --> 00:16:03.379
I tried playing the first one a long time ago.

00:16:03.419 --> 00:16:06.360
I didn't make it very far. Me neither. Yeah,

00:16:06.419 --> 00:16:09.860
I will say, one of the biggest complaints I have

00:16:09.860 --> 00:16:11.740
about those games is they just give you so much

00:16:11.740 --> 00:16:16.210
information all at once. I don't know why. Tell

00:16:16.210 --> 00:16:18.309
me all these things all at once. Open world games

00:16:18.309 --> 00:16:23.230
in general nowadays. I think they just go based

00:16:23.230 --> 00:16:26.190
off of that. They already think you know everything,

00:16:26.370 --> 00:16:31.669
I guess, from previous stuff. I will say that

00:16:31.669 --> 00:16:35.190
you don't have to know too much about everything

00:16:35.190 --> 00:16:40.470
to get through that game. I think the only other

00:16:40.470 --> 00:16:42.029
complaint I have about it is it just felt short.

00:16:42.649 --> 00:16:46.399
I beat that game in a few days. I think it took

00:16:46.399 --> 00:16:48.720
me a week to beat the first one. But to be fair,

00:16:48.860 --> 00:16:51.000
by the time I got to the first one, all the DLC

00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:54.100
was out, so that might have been why. Yeah, probably.

00:16:55.779 --> 00:16:57.960
How old is the second one? It's like a couple

00:16:57.960 --> 00:17:00.519
years old already, right? The Outer Worlds 2?

00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:04.559
Yeah. No, it came out last year. Oh, okay. The

00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:09.599
first game came out in 2022, I think. Okay. But

00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:11.380
one thing I really liked about The Outer Worlds

00:17:11.380 --> 00:17:15.529
2 is that it was made up by Obsidian. Obsidian

00:17:15.529 --> 00:17:18.089
made Fallout New Vegas, right? And Fallout, the

00:17:18.089 --> 00:17:21.170
3D Fallout games have these radio stations that

00:17:21.170 --> 00:17:23.529
play old -timey music from, you know, 1940s,

00:17:23.529 --> 00:17:27.069
50s, 60s. So The Outer Worlds 2 actually has

00:17:27.069 --> 00:17:30.430
a radio station that has, like, old -timey tunes

00:17:30.430 --> 00:17:33.369
that were made for the game. So they have, like,

00:17:33.390 --> 00:17:36.250
lore related to the game, which I thought was

00:17:36.250 --> 00:17:38.269
really cool. And they're, like, good songs, too.

00:17:39.470 --> 00:17:41.549
Yeah, that's cool. We see hacking, whacking,

00:17:41.569 --> 00:17:46.349
and slashing. Not that one. And one more thing.

00:17:46.450 --> 00:17:49.049
I started playing the original Resident Evil.

00:17:49.750 --> 00:17:54.589
So it's actually fun. I just think the camera

00:17:54.589 --> 00:17:58.809
angles kind of kill me. They're really not placed

00:17:58.809 --> 00:18:02.410
in the best position sometimes. Yeah. And tank

00:18:02.410 --> 00:18:05.430
controls. Tank controls. And one more thing is

00:18:05.430 --> 00:18:09.130
that the backgrounds in this game are pre -rendered

00:18:09.130 --> 00:18:11.829
and they do not look good on like modern displays.

00:18:11.930 --> 00:18:15.369
They look like shit. Yeah. Otherwise, I've been

00:18:15.369 --> 00:18:19.509
enjoying it. Yeah, I know. So otherwise, I find

00:18:19.509 --> 00:18:22.470
it enjoyable. I've been having fun with it. I

00:18:22.470 --> 00:18:25.910
want to play the original 2 and 3 as well. And

00:18:25.910 --> 00:18:29.789
then I want to play Outbreak because one of the

00:18:29.789 --> 00:18:32.029
characters in that game, her daughter is in the

00:18:32.029 --> 00:18:34.970
newest Resident Evil Requiem. Yeah, yeah. There's

00:18:34.970 --> 00:18:37.190
like a whole story going there. Yeah, I think

00:18:37.190 --> 00:18:40.410
the first one's on the list. Yeah, I think so.

00:18:40.630 --> 00:18:42.970
We'll get around to it someday. Yeah, first one's

00:18:42.970 --> 00:18:45.210
pretty good. I haven't played in a long time.

00:18:45.529 --> 00:18:47.970
Yeah, yeah. There's like 5 ,000 games to look

00:18:47.970 --> 00:18:49.910
through on this list. No, there's only like 260

00:18:49.910 --> 00:18:54.730
-something. Jacob, you got anything else? No,

00:18:54.849 --> 00:18:57.250
that's everything. All right. Let's see. What

00:18:57.250 --> 00:18:59.430
have I been doing? I've been cleaning up God

00:18:59.430 --> 00:19:01.130
of War, Ragnarok, so I've been playing it too,

00:19:01.250 --> 00:19:02.809
but I'm just getting all the collectibles and

00:19:02.809 --> 00:19:05.130
stuff, finishing all that stuff up. Those freaking

00:19:05.130 --> 00:19:09.190
berserker fights. God, dude, they're tough. That

00:19:09.190 --> 00:19:12.309
one with the two? Jesus. Oh, dude, that one took

00:19:12.309 --> 00:19:14.130
me so long. Yeah, that one was tough shit. There's

00:19:14.130 --> 00:19:16.730
one that has two of them? Dude, it's fucking

00:19:16.730 --> 00:19:19.069
tough. I haven't gotten to him yet. Some of them

00:19:19.069 --> 00:19:21.910
are actually surprisingly easy. Yeah, some of

00:19:21.910 --> 00:19:24.809
them are, yeah. But most of them, though. No.

00:19:24.869 --> 00:19:28.109
Yeah. I still think the Valkyries are harder.

00:19:28.970 --> 00:19:32.829
Yeah, from what I've seen so far. Yeah. Did you

00:19:32.829 --> 00:19:35.720
do all this stuff in the hell world? No, I haven't

00:19:35.720 --> 00:19:39.359
gotten there yet, no. Hellheim. Muspelheim. No,

00:19:39.460 --> 00:19:42.940
I haven't gotten there yet. Okay. There's a special

00:19:42.940 --> 00:19:45.200
surprise at the end of that one. Ooh, can't wait.

00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:52.480
But yeah, so I've been finishing that up. I'm

00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:53.900
trying to finish that because I want to play

00:19:53.900 --> 00:19:54.740
it. You might want to buy an extra controller.

00:19:55.099 --> 00:20:01.119
Uh -oh. Because I wanted to play that prequel,

00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:03.039
so I've got to finish this up before I do that.

00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:05.500
I know, I want to. I'm trying to finish up Stole

00:20:05.500 --> 00:20:07.220
the Blade. I think I want to start that next.

00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:11.140
Yeah. But they have that Rogue -like version

00:20:11.140 --> 00:20:13.099
of the Valhalla or whatever. I gotta play that

00:20:13.099 --> 00:20:14.980
too, see if that's any good. I played that for

00:20:14.980 --> 00:20:16.880
a little while. It's pretty cool. Yeah, gotta

00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:19.140
check that out. Let's see, what else? I've been

00:20:19.140 --> 00:20:24.160
listening to Sonic Chaotix. Sega released a radio

00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:27.329
show of Sonic, and it's, dude. It's good. It's

00:20:27.329 --> 00:20:29.789
so good. I meant to text you to see if you were

00:20:29.789 --> 00:20:32.230
listening to that. Yeah, I've listened to, like,

00:20:32.250 --> 00:20:34.309
the first, I think, for three episodes. I was

00:20:34.309 --> 00:20:36.029
just smiling the whole time, man. It's so good.

00:20:36.910 --> 00:20:39.250
All right. I'm going to have to check it out.

00:20:39.349 --> 00:20:40.690
Yeah, it's good, dude. They have, like, the original.

00:20:40.809 --> 00:20:42.230
It's all the original, like, voice actors and

00:20:42.230 --> 00:20:44.990
stuff, so. Oh, really? As far as I know. I know,

00:20:45.009 --> 00:20:47.470
like, Sonic is the, what's his name, Michael

00:20:47.470 --> 00:20:51.210
Craig or whatever. And I think the Vector and

00:20:51.210 --> 00:20:52.690
them are all, like, the original voice actors

00:20:52.690 --> 00:20:56.099
and stuff, so. But either way, it's good, man.

00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:57.799
It's a funny story. It's just, I don't know.

00:20:57.859 --> 00:21:00.220
I love Sonic and his lore and everything, so

00:21:00.220 --> 00:21:03.339
it's fun. And they've got, like, six episodes

00:21:03.339 --> 00:21:04.920
out now, so they keep releasing them. I don't

00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:07.200
know how many they're doing, but... Yeah. That's

00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:09.819
cool. Yeah. Keep listening to those. They're

00:21:09.819 --> 00:21:12.359
fun. Oh, yeah. So speaking of music, I've actually

00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:14.720
been listening to Ram Jam. You guys know what

00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:18.180
Ram Jam is? Yeah. Yeah, they do the black. Well,

00:21:18.339 --> 00:21:20.960
I know one song by them. Yeah, I know. That was

00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:22.480
the only song that anyone really knows is Black

00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:24.640
Betty. But, dude, honestly, they're a pretty

00:21:24.640 --> 00:21:27.059
freaking good band, man. Like, their other songs

00:21:27.059 --> 00:21:29.339
are, like, they're all, like, rip snorting, like

00:21:29.339 --> 00:21:31.779
Black Betty. Like, they're all really heavy rock

00:21:31.779 --> 00:21:34.279
and roll songs. So if anyone likes just, like,

00:21:34.279 --> 00:21:36.579
classic old school rock and roll, definitely

00:21:36.579 --> 00:21:39.960
check out Ram Jam. um they only have two albums

00:21:39.960 --> 00:21:42.279
but they're both pretty good and their second

00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:44.220
album has like one of my favorite album arts

00:21:44.220 --> 00:21:47.500
it's so it's so good it's just like a ram dressed

00:21:47.500 --> 00:21:50.579
up as like a victorian or like a renaissance

00:21:50.579 --> 00:21:54.180
painter and stuff it's it's funny nice i love

00:21:54.180 --> 00:21:57.140
it but yeah i never never went around to listen

00:21:57.140 --> 00:21:59.119
to any of the other stuff dude it's really good

00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:00.960
if you just like old classic rock and roll you

00:22:00.960 --> 00:22:04.460
definitely gotta check out ram jam and then I've

00:22:04.460 --> 00:22:06.619
been making progress in Moby Dick. I started

00:22:06.619 --> 00:22:07.980
it, and then I put it down for a while, and I

00:22:07.980 --> 00:22:11.480
picked it back up. Dude, that book is nothing

00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:16.619
what I thought it was. I'm like 120 pages in,

00:22:16.640 --> 00:22:21.980
and we just got onto a boat. Jesus. I know. Their

00:22:21.980 --> 00:22:23.599
first hundred -something pages, they're not even

00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:25.900
on a fucking boat. And there's still no whales.

00:22:25.940 --> 00:22:27.940
The book started on the boat. They talked about

00:22:27.940 --> 00:22:29.539
whales, but they haven't even seen a whale yet.

00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:36.519
It's crazy. yeah that's it's how many pages is

00:22:36.519 --> 00:22:40.220
that book uh i don't know i think like 400 something

00:22:40.220 --> 00:22:43.240
like that it's a pretty hefty book but yeah 400

00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:46.000
is decent yeah but i was like this is not at

00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:47.859
all what i thought this book was but it's an

00:22:47.859 --> 00:22:51.420
interesting journey um yeah dude my buddy's been

00:22:51.420 --> 00:22:54.599
going through the harry potters yeah oh man dude

00:22:54.599 --> 00:22:57.279
he said he says they're actually really good

00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:00.099
man yeah it's like he He's like, I never really

00:23:00.099 --> 00:23:02.079
enjoyed the movies, but I'm actually enjoying

00:23:02.079 --> 00:23:04.480
the books. Yeah. I mean, I read them all when

00:23:04.480 --> 00:23:06.500
they came out, and I liked them. Yeah, the books

00:23:06.500 --> 00:23:10.660
are good. Yeah. They can be a lot. Yeah. Well,

00:23:10.779 --> 00:23:14.279
that was funny. He's like, I just started this,

00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:17.200
the fifth one or whatever. I don't remember what

00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:20.359
it was. Yeah. But dude, not even a week later,

00:23:20.460 --> 00:23:23.299
I seen him reading, and he's already at the end

00:23:23.299 --> 00:23:25.859
of the book. I'm like, Jesus, dude. You're freaking

00:23:25.859 --> 00:23:28.700
plowing through this thing. Yeah. Yeah, I've

00:23:28.700 --> 00:23:32.720
been reading a lot. He read all the Game of Thrones.

00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:38.259
Oh, yeah. I guess he reads fast. I don't know.

00:23:40.299 --> 00:23:42.720
Too bad the Harry Potter crazy lady is all crazy

00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:48.279
now. Yeah, I know. The books are already written.

00:23:48.539 --> 00:23:51.960
I bought them before she went crazy. There you

00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:54.660
go. That's what we've been doing this week. Well,

00:23:54.720 --> 00:23:56.140
not this week. I always say this week every time,

00:23:56.240 --> 00:23:58.339
but that's what we've been doing lately. What

00:23:58.339 --> 00:24:00.319
have you guys been up to? Let us know. We want

00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:03.759
to hear what you guys are up to. All right. Let's

00:24:03.759 --> 00:25:10.970
go ahead and jump over to Wild Woody. A pencil

00:25:10.970 --> 00:25:13.289
lives in the office of an adventurer named Dusty.

00:25:13.609 --> 00:25:15.529
Dusty returns from another harrowing adventure

00:25:15.529 --> 00:25:18.630
with an exotic artifact. This artifact is a miniature

00:25:18.630 --> 00:25:20.849
totem pole about eight inches tall and consisting

00:25:20.849 --> 00:25:23.630
of six totem heads. When the totem is shattered,

00:25:23.809 --> 00:25:26.009
all the heads burst free like genies free from

00:25:26.009 --> 00:25:28.430
their lamps. Each head zooms around the room,

00:25:28.509 --> 00:25:30.849
looking for a place to hide. When each one finds

00:25:30.849 --> 00:25:32.910
a picture or drawing, he magically enters it,

00:25:32.950 --> 00:25:35.789
creating a world for himself. The totem is broken.

00:25:35.910 --> 00:25:38.490
The world is vaporized. Only the office remains.

00:25:39.130 --> 00:25:41.710
One totem head is left. He's Lowman on the totem

00:25:41.710 --> 00:25:44.150
pole. It's his job to find a champion to restore

00:25:44.150 --> 00:25:46.650
the world. He spots a pencil on the desk and

00:25:46.650 --> 00:25:49.829
brings him to life. Woody is born. Throughout

00:25:49.829 --> 00:25:52.230
the game, Lowman helps Woody, telling him what's

00:25:52.230 --> 00:25:54.809
going on and where to go next. Woody must retrieve

00:25:54.809 --> 00:25:56.809
each totem head from its newly created world.

00:25:57.049 --> 00:25:59.430
Once all the heads are back, Woody reassembles

00:25:59.430 --> 00:26:13.710
a totem and the world is restored. Okay, so we've

00:26:13.710 --> 00:26:15.529
been playing Wild Woody, which was developed

00:26:15.529 --> 00:26:18.470
by the Sega Multimedia Studio. It was published

00:26:18.470 --> 00:26:27.470
by Sega in 1995 for the Sega CD. Let's see, so

00:26:27.470 --> 00:26:31.029
it's a 2D platformer. And from what I understand,

00:26:31.150 --> 00:26:33.029
the studio, when they started, they kind of knew

00:26:33.029 --> 00:26:36.809
that the Sega CD was on its last legs. I think

00:26:36.809 --> 00:26:38.329
the Saturn had been announced at this point.

00:26:38.829 --> 00:26:41.569
So I feel like they didn't... put their all into

00:26:41.569 --> 00:26:44.470
this game. They were kind of just finishing the

00:26:44.470 --> 00:26:48.009
game and pushing it out. And then, funnily enough,

00:26:48.130 --> 00:26:51.190
the music composer for this game is Ron Bumblefoot

00:26:51.190 --> 00:26:53.930
Thal, who is kind of a... I mean, he's not super

00:26:53.930 --> 00:26:55.849
famous, but he's in the rock and roll scene.

00:26:55.950 --> 00:26:58.450
He was in Guns N' Roses for a little bit, so

00:26:58.450 --> 00:27:00.230
that was pretty cool. He's on one of their albums.

00:27:00.369 --> 00:27:02.890
I meant to go through that album. Chinese Democracy,

00:27:03.289 --> 00:27:05.809
it's alright. It's not their best. Because that's

00:27:05.809 --> 00:27:09.319
when Slash left, and then... Buckethead's on

00:27:09.319 --> 00:27:11.900
that album. It's alright. Oh, is he? Yeah, that's

00:27:11.900 --> 00:27:16.359
the one that Buckethead's on. I've never listened

00:27:16.359 --> 00:27:18.460
to a lot of their stuff. Their first album's

00:27:18.460 --> 00:27:22.200
good. But yeah, anyway. So, I picked this game

00:27:22.200 --> 00:27:25.079
because I just wanted to play some good old classic

00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:27.140
2D platformers. These are my bread and butter,

00:27:27.220 --> 00:27:30.380
man. I love just classic 2D platformers. And

00:27:30.380 --> 00:27:32.519
I've really been wanting to play some Sega CD.

00:27:32.940 --> 00:27:34.900
I have one, but it's not working right now. I

00:27:34.900 --> 00:27:36.759
want to get it fixed so I can start jamming out

00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:38.759
on that. Yeah, this was just a game I really

00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:40.740
just wanted to play. It looked funny. The cover

00:27:40.740 --> 00:27:45.319
art was awesome. It had that 90s craziness to

00:27:45.319 --> 00:27:49.079
it. I was all about it when I saw it. Alright,

00:27:49.119 --> 00:27:51.259
so were you guys able to complete this game?

00:27:52.700 --> 00:27:56.759
Yes. Yeah, I did too. Ryan, Jacob, you guys didn't

00:27:56.759 --> 00:28:01.440
beat it? No. How far did you guys get? I got

00:28:01.440 --> 00:28:05.000
to the industrial level. Oh, okay. So about halfway.

00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:08.099
About halfway, yeah. Jacob, did you beat a level?

00:28:09.000 --> 00:28:12.119
I beat the first two, I think. Okay. Did you

00:28:12.119 --> 00:28:15.579
beat the pirate boss? Yeah. Oh, okay. And then

00:28:15.579 --> 00:28:17.079
you beat the minotaur level with the mythical?

00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:20.460
Yeah. No. Just those two. Oh, you did? Okay.

00:28:21.920 --> 00:28:23.359
And so you beat Zeus, too. You made it past that?

00:28:24.339 --> 00:28:27.000
Yeah. Okay. Oh, okay. You said you didn't beat

00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:29.460
that. It's about the same areas, Ryan, then.

00:28:29.700 --> 00:28:31.660
Yeah, Eric, did you beat it on hard? Because

00:28:31.660 --> 00:28:34.420
I went through and beat it on hard. yeah barely

00:28:34.420 --> 00:28:37.859
bro barely yeah there was it definitely made

00:28:37.859 --> 00:28:40.759
me sweat a little bit for sure dude that last

00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:44.039
level oh i had like three extra lives and i lost

00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:46.460
all of them and i made it to the boss with zero

00:28:46.460 --> 00:28:50.279
lives and i'm like oh dude if i lose right now

00:28:50.279 --> 00:28:52.420
i'm gonna be so mad yeah well at least that last

00:28:52.420 --> 00:28:55.859
boss isn't too tough um no no my thing though

00:28:55.859 --> 00:28:58.059
now that at first i didn't know what the hell

00:28:58.059 --> 00:29:00.039
it was doing yeah and then i don't know if it

00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:01.920
was the game or the emulator or what but this

00:29:01.920 --> 00:29:06.180
game had So many problems. It is wonky. I got

00:29:06.180 --> 00:29:09.460
stuck so many times, and my emulator crashed

00:29:09.460 --> 00:29:13.599
at least, like, three times. I can't imagine,

00:29:13.640 --> 00:29:15.799
like, on original hardware, this game is that

00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.099
bad. Like, I'm sure that getting stuck... Crashing,

00:29:18.099 --> 00:29:20.380
probably not. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm sure getting

00:29:20.380 --> 00:29:23.460
stuck happens, but... I got stuck, like, two

00:29:23.460 --> 00:29:25.940
or three times, and I think it crashed a couple

00:29:25.940 --> 00:29:28.319
times on me, too. Yeah, this game was definitely

00:29:28.319 --> 00:29:31.400
not tested a lot, and it wasn't finished, but...

00:29:31.400 --> 00:29:36.579
No. So an adventurer brings home an ancient totem

00:29:36.579 --> 00:29:40.359
pole artifact that comes to life and it separates

00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:43.420
and each head enters a painting, basically. And

00:29:43.420 --> 00:29:46.880
then he's called Low Man. Low Man on the totem

00:29:46.880 --> 00:29:50.259
pole is the joke. He wants to get the heads back

00:29:50.259 --> 00:29:52.859
and so he brings to life a wooden pencil on the

00:29:52.859 --> 00:29:56.680
table to retrieve them and get them back. And

00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:59.480
so the pencil comes alive. His name is Wild Woody.

00:30:01.420 --> 00:30:03.400
He goes, he jumps into the first painting, and

00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:05.720
he goes into the level, and that's where the

00:30:05.720 --> 00:30:08.680
game starts. And so, like I said, it's a 2D platformer.

00:30:08.819 --> 00:30:11.099
It's classic, just sprite animation and stuff.

00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:15.880
And this game, like, it sucks. I felt like this

00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:17.640
game could have been good. You know, like, it

00:30:17.640 --> 00:30:19.859
has a lot of potential. I like a lot of the ideas

00:30:19.859 --> 00:30:22.720
in this game. This game had so much potential.

00:30:22.759 --> 00:30:24.759
Yeah, I like the character. I think it's funny.

00:30:25.099 --> 00:30:28.819
It's definitely goofy, but yeah, it has so much

00:30:28.819 --> 00:30:32.380
charm. Yeah. It has a lot of good ideas, just

00:30:32.380 --> 00:30:35.220
nothing was executed very well. No, the biggest

00:30:35.220 --> 00:30:40.220
problem with this game is the controls. The platforming?

00:30:40.440 --> 00:30:42.819
Yes, I was going to say, the controls themselves

00:30:42.819 --> 00:30:46.380
aren't awful. You have a jump, you run, and the

00:30:46.380 --> 00:30:48.460
running and jumping have different momentum depending

00:30:48.460 --> 00:30:51.019
on what you're doing. But the biggest problem

00:30:51.019 --> 00:30:54.380
is the hitboxes. Like you said, the platforming

00:30:54.380 --> 00:30:56.519
with how your character interacts with the platforms,

00:30:56.680 --> 00:30:58.900
there's not a lot of coyote time, coyote time

00:30:58.900 --> 00:31:00.759
in this game, which for anyone who doesn't know,

00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:02.859
it gives you a little extra time to jump off

00:31:02.859 --> 00:31:06.140
edges or if you're jumping to an edge, it allows

00:31:06.140 --> 00:31:08.019
you a little extra space to actually land on

00:31:08.019 --> 00:31:10.480
the edge. It has none of that. That doesn't exist

00:31:10.480 --> 00:31:13.119
at all. It has absolutely nothing. And then even

00:31:13.119 --> 00:31:15.460
some of the ledges, you just fall off of them

00:31:15.460 --> 00:31:17.140
anyway. Yeah, you just slide off. There's a lot

00:31:17.140 --> 00:31:20.059
of sliding for some reason. Well, you can be,

00:31:20.119 --> 00:31:22.480
like, right on the edge, but that is not the

00:31:22.480 --> 00:31:25.539
edge of where you can stand. Right, yeah. That

00:31:25.539 --> 00:31:28.500
stupid alien boss? Oh my god, those platforms

00:31:28.500 --> 00:31:30.940
suck. Yeah, that one and the mecha one, too.

00:31:31.099 --> 00:31:33.220
The other thing, too, is you jump on enemies,

00:31:33.339 --> 00:31:34.980
so you'll jump on an enemy and you'll erase them

00:31:34.980 --> 00:31:37.279
with your butt, but sometimes the hitboxes on

00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:39.759
the enemies make no sense. Like, you'll jump

00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:42.400
in three different places, and it won't work

00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:44.039
sometimes, and you just keep getting hit, and

00:31:44.039 --> 00:31:46.359
it's so annoying. But the worst fucking part

00:31:46.359 --> 00:31:48.720
of this game... The one thing that made me rage

00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:51.019
more than anything else in this game was the

00:31:51.019 --> 00:31:55.640
fucking ropes, man. They made no sense. They

00:31:55.640 --> 00:31:58.940
made no sense. At like a certain point on the

00:31:58.940 --> 00:32:01.039
bottom, you'd like slip off. Well, sometimes

00:32:01.039 --> 00:32:02.940
you would grab it and you would just fly off.

00:32:03.039 --> 00:32:06.980
It made no sense, man. It was so bad. It was

00:32:06.980 --> 00:32:09.650
so awful. And then, like, you had to be at a

00:32:09.650 --> 00:32:12.029
certain point to jump because if you jumped and

00:32:12.029 --> 00:32:13.670
hit your head, you'd just fall straight down.

00:32:13.690 --> 00:32:16.250
Yeah, you'd just instantly fall down. Oh, man,

00:32:16.309 --> 00:32:19.369
it was so annoying. That's what I'm saying. I

00:32:19.369 --> 00:32:22.990
feel like if some of that was fixed, like if

00:32:22.990 --> 00:32:25.150
a modder went in and, like, knew how to fix that

00:32:25.150 --> 00:32:27.109
stuff and fix his game, I think it would actually

00:32:27.109 --> 00:32:29.569
be a decent game. Dude, when I first played this

00:32:29.569 --> 00:32:31.730
game, I hated it. Yeah. I was like, I'm going

00:32:31.730 --> 00:32:35.509
to hate this game. But then I kept forcing myself

00:32:35.509 --> 00:32:38.630
to play this game because it did have that charm.

00:32:39.529 --> 00:32:43.029
And then, I mean, I still get frustrated, but

00:32:43.029 --> 00:32:46.509
I do like this game. Yeah. It could be good.

00:32:46.569 --> 00:32:48.289
It has a lot of potential. I like some of the

00:32:48.289 --> 00:32:50.650
mechanics. So they have these power -ups. You

00:32:50.650 --> 00:32:52.970
collect these sketches, and then you can pause

00:32:52.970 --> 00:32:55.369
the game, and you can select a sketch. It's like

00:32:55.369 --> 00:32:58.150
a boat, or there's an opera singer who kills

00:32:58.150 --> 00:32:59.730
enemies on the screen. Just all these kind of

00:32:59.730 --> 00:33:03.750
weird things. And when you use it... It shows

00:33:03.750 --> 00:33:07.029
your power by how long Wild Woody is. It's pretty

00:33:07.029 --> 00:33:08.990
cool. He's got three stages. He's got the full

00:33:08.990 --> 00:33:10.769
one, and then there's a middle one, and then

00:33:10.769 --> 00:33:13.210
there's a small Wild Woody. And every time you

00:33:13.210 --> 00:33:16.950
use a power -up, you grow down. And then once

00:33:16.950 --> 00:33:18.950
you reach the lowest level, you can't use any

00:33:18.950 --> 00:33:20.730
more power -ups. But then they have another pickup

00:33:20.730 --> 00:33:23.089
that you can get that grows you back to full

00:33:23.089 --> 00:33:26.730
length. So I like that mechanic. I kind of wish,

00:33:26.730 --> 00:33:30.930
though, that they had power -ups that didn't...

00:33:30.930 --> 00:33:33.160
Like the sketches, some of them didn't. take

00:33:33.160 --> 00:33:35.619
away your your health you know what i mean like

00:33:35.619 --> 00:33:40.000
i feel like i just my biggest gripe is i wish

00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:43.940
i feel like the the the power -ups or whatever

00:33:43.940 --> 00:33:47.079
were just completely useless they they were not

00:33:47.079 --> 00:33:50.000
integrated into the game that they should have

00:33:50.000 --> 00:33:52.079
been yeah it feels like they were added to complete

00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:55.220
the levels or just add -ons yes i agree but you

00:33:55.220 --> 00:33:57.160
can play this entire game without using any of

00:33:57.160 --> 00:33:59.299
them yeah you can and that's kind of like what

00:33:59.299 --> 00:34:01.900
i was saying i feel like So, for example, one

00:34:01.900 --> 00:34:03.660
of them is, like, a fireball in the minotaur

00:34:03.660 --> 00:34:06.000
level. I feel like they should have just gave

00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:07.880
you that for the level. Like, they should have

00:34:07.880 --> 00:34:10.079
just dressed you up as a Greek character, gave

00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:11.179
you the fireball power. See, that would have

00:34:11.179 --> 00:34:12.860
been cool. Yeah, and then they would have had

00:34:12.860 --> 00:34:16.179
extra sketches to, like, do, like, more powerful

00:34:16.179 --> 00:34:18.519
stuff, you know what I mean? Yeah, like the yodeling

00:34:18.519 --> 00:34:20.800
lady and stuff like that. And then those would

00:34:20.800 --> 00:34:22.500
have been extra ones, and then those would have

00:34:22.500 --> 00:34:24.119
brought you down, but the fireball would have

00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:25.719
always been there. I feel like if they did something

00:34:25.719 --> 00:34:27.219
like that, the game would have been a lot more

00:34:27.219 --> 00:34:30.639
fun. oh yeah for sure because it's it's a pain

00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:32.699
to kill the all these enemies that are on the

00:34:32.699 --> 00:34:36.739
screen just to jump on them yeah yeah yeah and

00:34:36.739 --> 00:34:38.699
then just and then like you said you only have

00:34:38.699 --> 00:34:41.480
two power -ups at a time so sometimes you use

00:34:41.480 --> 00:34:43.639
them sometimes don't even work and then now you're

00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:45.800
out of a power -up so and then that's another

00:34:45.800 --> 00:34:48.400
thing with this game it's just it's not polished

00:34:48.400 --> 00:34:53.900
at all the the level design is not great By any

00:34:53.900 --> 00:34:56.699
means necessary. You can softlock yourself out

00:34:56.699 --> 00:34:58.300
of this game. Yep, there are a couple spots,

00:34:58.860 --> 00:35:01.360
yep. If you don't have a certain power -up, you

00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:04.719
can't jump over a wall. Yep, yep. And it's just

00:35:04.719 --> 00:35:08.679
not polished very well. And it wasn't, I guess,

00:35:08.800 --> 00:35:12.840
QC'd or whatever. No, it definitely wasn't. And

00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:17.889
these levels are... they're like huge mazes yeah

00:35:17.889 --> 00:35:20.889
and there's no they make no sense it's it's not

00:35:20.889 --> 00:35:23.429
great design for sure luckily they give you some

00:35:23.429 --> 00:35:26.849
arrows sometimes but yeah yeah sometimes they

00:35:26.849 --> 00:35:28.309
do where they show you what the exit is and stuff

00:35:28.309 --> 00:35:30.650
the first time i played this game i was like

00:35:30.650 --> 00:35:33.230
where do i go what is what is the goal to get

00:35:33.230 --> 00:35:35.030
to the next level because i didn't know i had

00:35:35.030 --> 00:35:38.809
to get to the end yeah of the stage so there's

00:35:38.809 --> 00:35:41.710
there's uh what is there five worlds right There's

00:35:41.710 --> 00:35:44.510
five worlds with two levels each and then in

00:35:44.510 --> 00:35:47.309
between each level. So the first level has eight

00:35:47.309 --> 00:35:49.050
puzzle pieces that are just scattered around

00:35:49.050 --> 00:35:51.010
the world that you have to find. And some of

00:35:51.010 --> 00:35:53.030
them are difficult to find. They're hidden really

00:35:53.030 --> 00:35:55.409
well. But if you find all eight of them, then

00:35:55.409 --> 00:35:58.349
you go to the bonus level between the worlds,

00:35:58.769 --> 00:36:01.550
which the bonus levels are kind of fun. They're

00:36:01.550 --> 00:36:06.300
like these 3D mazes. Like a Sega Sonic CD thing,

00:36:06.300 --> 00:36:07.340
right? Yeah, they're kind of like a Sonic CD

00:36:07.340 --> 00:36:09.840
world, yep. But you run across a track in these

00:36:09.840 --> 00:36:11.940
mazes and you have to find power -ups and collectibles.

00:36:12.380 --> 00:36:14.219
And there's also even secrets. There's Easter

00:36:14.219 --> 00:36:17.260
eggs in the worlds that you can pick up to give

00:36:17.260 --> 00:36:20.980
you extra power -ups and stuff. Those are actually

00:36:20.980 --> 00:36:22.260
really fun. I think those are the best part of

00:36:22.260 --> 00:36:24.980
the game, honestly. Yeah, again, there's some

00:36:24.980 --> 00:36:28.019
good ideas here. There's some cool things that

00:36:28.019 --> 00:36:31.599
they implemented into this game. Again, one of

00:36:31.599 --> 00:36:33.280
the coolest things is those bonus levels, but

00:36:33.280 --> 00:36:35.360
they're impossible to get to. Yeah, because you

00:36:35.360 --> 00:36:37.599
have to find so many fucking pieces in a level

00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:41.099
that makes no sense. Yeah, and then if you don't

00:36:41.099 --> 00:36:43.960
go a certain way, you can't go back. Yeah, that's

00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:45.519
true. Yeah, sometimes in the levels you get stuck

00:36:45.519 --> 00:36:48.500
after a certain point. Dude, that space level,

00:36:48.619 --> 00:36:50.480
I hate that space level. Yeah, the space level

00:36:50.480 --> 00:36:52.440
sucks and the mandatory level sucks. That is

00:36:52.440 --> 00:36:56.000
the only level that it is mandatory that I can't

00:36:56.000 --> 00:36:59.539
seem to get past. You have to use the sketches.

00:37:00.079 --> 00:37:02.900
Yeah, so some of the areas, usually they're just

00:37:02.900 --> 00:37:04.300
for, like, secrets and stuff, but some of the

00:37:04.300 --> 00:37:06.679
areas you have to go to the tiniest version of

00:37:06.679 --> 00:37:08.960
yourself, so you have to use two power -ups.

00:37:09.340 --> 00:37:11.420
Like you're saying, and then you could, like,

00:37:11.440 --> 00:37:13.760
scoot under some of the leveling and stuff. But

00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:15.659
for the space one, you have to do it to continue.

00:37:15.820 --> 00:37:18.579
So, yeah, it's... And none of the games before

00:37:18.579 --> 00:37:20.719
that, like, even hints at that, you know what

00:37:20.719 --> 00:37:22.980
I mean? So I was stuck there for a while. And

00:37:22.980 --> 00:37:26.119
it sucks, too, because if you die with all your

00:37:26.119 --> 00:37:29.239
sketch... books they don't respond yeah you lose

00:37:29.239 --> 00:37:31.480
everything so if you get to that point and then

00:37:31.480 --> 00:37:33.280
you have to go there and you have no sketch pads

00:37:33.280 --> 00:37:35.900
you're screwed yep yep you have to go back and

00:37:35.900 --> 00:37:38.440
and i mean they respond but i don't think they

00:37:38.440 --> 00:37:40.079
do i think once you grab them they don't respond

00:37:40.079 --> 00:37:42.019
oh no maybe yeah maybe you're right because i

00:37:42.019 --> 00:37:43.239
don't like the health or anything it does either

00:37:43.239 --> 00:37:45.920
so yeah maybe so you're pretty much screwed you

00:37:45.920 --> 00:37:48.179
either have to die complete well you have to

00:37:48.179 --> 00:37:50.320
you have to die completely yeah well i mean you

00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:53.679
can if you didn't get a respond point well This

00:37:53.679 --> 00:37:56.639
game does have continues, so the Sega CD has

00:37:56.639 --> 00:38:00.119
the capability to save. It saves after every

00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:02.860
level, so you could restart. Unless you have

00:38:02.860 --> 00:38:06.079
some weird magical save system. Dude, that is

00:38:06.079 --> 00:38:09.039
100 % emulator. That was no way in hell even

00:38:09.039 --> 00:38:11.820
possible for a Sega CD to do that. That's not

00:38:11.820 --> 00:38:14.219
possible. I don't know what happened there. I

00:38:14.219 --> 00:38:16.300
deleted my save because I wanted to start over,

00:38:16.460 --> 00:38:19.000
and I made it two levels in, three levels in,

00:38:19.019 --> 00:38:20.869
something like that. I restarted the game because

00:38:20.869 --> 00:38:22.150
I just wanted to make sure that it even worked,

00:38:22.230 --> 00:38:24.510
and it did. It started back up to wherever it

00:38:24.510 --> 00:38:26.789
was, right? And then the game crashed on me,

00:38:26.889 --> 00:38:29.909
and it put back my previous save where I was

00:38:29.909 --> 00:38:31.929
on the last level, and I was like, how the hell

00:38:31.929 --> 00:38:34.630
is that even possible? I have no idea what happened

00:38:34.630 --> 00:38:38.650
there. So you can continue on hard? Yeah, you

00:38:38.650 --> 00:38:42.099
can, yeah. Okay. It would never let me because

00:38:42.099 --> 00:38:44.179
it just kept bringing me to the last stage. The

00:38:44.179 --> 00:38:46.820
save was already at the last. It makes no sense.

00:38:46.960 --> 00:38:48.639
If you have a save that's already on the last

00:38:48.639 --> 00:38:50.820
level, whenever you start the game over, it's

00:38:50.820 --> 00:38:53.500
just always going to go to that last save. You

00:38:53.500 --> 00:38:55.199
have to go in and actually delete it from the

00:38:55.199 --> 00:39:01.250
Sega CD memory. It's stupid. This game... Once

00:39:01.250 --> 00:39:03.650
you play it enough, I beat the game on hard in

00:39:03.650 --> 00:39:06.389
like 48 minutes, I think it was. I mean, you

00:39:06.389 --> 00:39:08.250
can run through this game. Once you get used

00:39:08.250 --> 00:39:11.230
to the wacky controls, the hardest part is just

00:39:11.230 --> 00:39:13.349
not getting hit by the enemies. So once you learn

00:39:13.349 --> 00:39:16.630
how to jump on them, it gets way easier. Especially

00:39:16.630 --> 00:39:18.630
on hard, because they do a lot of damage. Yeah,

00:39:18.630 --> 00:39:20.130
they do a lot of damage. Luckily, there's a ton

00:39:20.130 --> 00:39:22.230
of pickups and stuff. There is a lot of health.

00:39:22.289 --> 00:39:24.070
You just kind of have to learn how to grab those

00:39:24.070 --> 00:39:27.010
and use that stuff. Yeah, I mean, once you get

00:39:27.010 --> 00:39:30.170
that wonky jumping down, it's not... too hard.

00:39:30.210 --> 00:39:31.769
You can get through it pretty quickly. I mean,

00:39:31.769 --> 00:39:33.309
it's still a challenge. Don't get me wrong. I

00:39:33.309 --> 00:39:34.429
don't know how many people would want to put

00:39:34.429 --> 00:39:38.190
up with that shit anyway. I mean, only two people

00:39:38.190 --> 00:39:41.530
have mastered this game. Yeah. It's tough. It's

00:39:41.530 --> 00:39:43.530
a tough master. But we'll talk about that later.

00:39:44.269 --> 00:39:45.730
So yeah, the only thing I was going to say is

00:39:45.730 --> 00:39:47.789
that they have the... So after you beat the two

00:39:47.789 --> 00:39:50.809
levels, there's a boss fight. And you know what?

00:39:50.909 --> 00:39:52.309
The boss fights are actually pretty good too.

00:39:52.610 --> 00:39:54.869
I actually like the boss fights. Like the first

00:39:54.869 --> 00:39:58.820
one is a pirate with the... Or it's like a skeleton

00:39:58.820 --> 00:40:01.679
pirate with the swords. The second one was...

00:40:01.679 --> 00:40:04.980
Zeus. Zeus, right. That one's kind of a pain

00:40:04.980 --> 00:40:06.719
in the ass. Then the third one... It's not too

00:40:06.719 --> 00:40:08.840
bad. The third one was the Mecha Weenie, which

00:40:08.840 --> 00:40:10.719
I freaking love that boss. I think that's actually

00:40:10.719 --> 00:40:13.039
a really cool boss because it had the... Little

00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:14.840
crosshair coming after you. Yeah, and it had

00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:16.519
the Sega controller in his hand, which I thought

00:40:16.519 --> 00:40:18.900
was really cool. And you had to turn off his

00:40:18.900 --> 00:40:20.900
head so you can jump on his head. I don't know.

00:40:20.920 --> 00:40:22.800
I thought that was a really inventive boss fight.

00:40:22.860 --> 00:40:24.780
I liked that one. Yeah, which took me a minute

00:40:24.780 --> 00:40:27.099
to figure out, because it doesn't imply that

00:40:27.099 --> 00:40:28.780
you can press switches in this game. You could

00:40:28.780 --> 00:40:31.699
do it in the level before, so it kind of taught

00:40:31.699 --> 00:40:33.239
you that, but it didn't really make you do it,

00:40:33.300 --> 00:40:35.460
so yeah. And then there was the alien boss, which

00:40:35.460 --> 00:40:36.719
is just a straight -up pain in the ass. Fuck

00:40:36.719 --> 00:40:39.019
that boss. Oh my god, that one sucks. And then

00:40:39.019 --> 00:40:41.440
the last boss is so easy. You just make a monkey

00:40:41.440 --> 00:40:46.099
flush a toilet. It's so stupid. And then you

00:40:46.099 --> 00:40:48.739
basically beat the game, so. Again, I didn't

00:40:48.739 --> 00:40:50.380
know what the hell it was doing in that level.

00:40:50.519 --> 00:40:52.360
Yeah, it takes a minute to figure out, yeah.

00:40:52.969 --> 00:40:54.269
Alright, do you guys have anything else about

00:40:54.269 --> 00:40:57.530
controls, gameplay? They're very bad. Yeah, they're

00:40:57.530 --> 00:40:59.369
not great. I think you said it all. Pretty much.

00:41:00.210 --> 00:41:06.030
Awful. Call me Woody! Wild Woody! Okay, so let's

00:41:06.030 --> 00:41:08.929
talk about graphics. So, there's two parts to

00:41:08.929 --> 00:41:11.570
this game. There's the 2D gameplay part, and

00:41:11.570 --> 00:41:14.269
then this game actually has 3D rendered cutscenes.

00:41:14.860 --> 00:41:17.440
The 2D graphics are awesome. I think... I love

00:41:17.440 --> 00:41:19.900
the character art. Like, I love Wild Woody's...

00:41:19.900 --> 00:41:22.179
I just like his design. He's so funny when he's

00:41:22.179 --> 00:41:24.260
tiny. He just looks angry and he's a little stubby

00:41:24.260 --> 00:41:26.800
dude. It's so fucking funny. He's got short man

00:41:26.800 --> 00:41:28.820
syndrome. Yeah, yeah. And then when he's, like,

00:41:28.820 --> 00:41:31.559
rubbing his ass on the wall to, like... Oh, that's

00:41:31.559 --> 00:41:33.579
something we didn't mention. So you can actually

00:41:33.579 --> 00:41:37.059
rub out... So when you jump on enemies, you use

00:41:37.059 --> 00:41:39.019
your eraser to rub them out. But then there's

00:41:39.019 --> 00:41:41.059
also, like, walls and floors that you can use

00:41:41.059 --> 00:41:43.789
your butt... eraser to like yeah to erase to

00:41:43.789 --> 00:41:45.409
open up new areas and stuff and everything which

00:41:45.409 --> 00:41:47.610
again i think that's a really cool idea yeah

00:41:47.610 --> 00:41:49.469
it's a good idea and sometimes you have to do

00:41:49.469 --> 00:41:51.449
that to to get to the levels and everything so

00:41:51.449 --> 00:41:54.230
yeah i just like his design he he's expressive

00:41:54.230 --> 00:41:56.929
uh the enemies are really cool i like a lot of

00:41:56.929 --> 00:41:59.110
the enemy designs and stuff in this game the

00:41:59.110 --> 00:42:00.849
the backgrounds are really vibrant there's a

00:42:00.849 --> 00:42:03.909
lot of colors every every world has a very distinct

00:42:03.909 --> 00:42:06.610
and different look so the the graphics and stuff

00:42:06.610 --> 00:42:07.929
are really good in this game i actually think

00:42:07.929 --> 00:42:10.869
they look really good yeah yeah the the game's

00:42:10.869 --> 00:42:15.750
actually Pretty good looking. The controls just

00:42:15.750 --> 00:42:19.530
kill this game, dude. So for a Sega CD sprite

00:42:19.530 --> 00:42:21.929
game, I think it looks pretty good. The 3D rendered

00:42:21.929 --> 00:42:27.190
cutscenes, not as good. No, they definitely...

00:42:27.190 --> 00:42:29.849
Again, it's hard to say when you're on newer

00:42:29.849 --> 00:42:33.389
monitors and screens, but yeah, they just look

00:42:33.389 --> 00:42:36.010
horrendous. Well, first of all, the Sega CD has

00:42:36.010 --> 00:42:39.869
such low quality FMVs that were allowed on them.

00:42:41.420 --> 00:42:44.280
It was just awful, but it's definitely a product

00:42:44.280 --> 00:42:47.119
of the time. It's that early 90s, like, just

00:42:47.119 --> 00:42:51.619
clunky 3D. It's kind of scary, some of it, but...

00:42:51.619 --> 00:42:54.820
I don't even think... I mean, even PS1 had some

00:42:54.820 --> 00:42:58.659
rough FMVs. Oh, yeah, the videos are so compressed

00:42:58.659 --> 00:43:02.380
on the PS1, but the height, like, the width and

00:43:02.380 --> 00:43:05.219
stuff, and the aspect ratio... What's the word

00:43:05.219 --> 00:43:06.400
I'm trying to think of? I don't know, whatever.

00:43:07.139 --> 00:43:09.550
Resolution. Yeah, the resolution was bigger on

00:43:09.550 --> 00:43:10.889
the PS1. That's what I was thinking. The resolution

00:43:10.889 --> 00:43:13.730
on the Sega CD is super tiny. I mean, it's still

00:43:13.730 --> 00:43:16.849
cool to see it in there. The only thing graphically

00:43:16.849 --> 00:43:22.630
I didn't like was when you're getting rid of

00:43:22.630 --> 00:43:24.710
a floor or you're killing an enemy or something.

00:43:24.869 --> 00:43:28.630
He bites his bottom lip when he rubs his ass

00:43:28.630 --> 00:43:35.099
on enemies or he erases the floor. Yeah, he bites

00:43:35.099 --> 00:43:37.480
his bottom lip. I just don't like the way he

00:43:37.480 --> 00:43:39.599
looks when he bends over, bro. That's what scares

00:43:39.599 --> 00:43:43.400
me. Yeah, that's odd, too. Some of his expressions

00:43:43.400 --> 00:43:47.019
are a little too expressive. He's feeling something,

00:43:47.199 --> 00:43:49.019
bro. He's feeling something. I don't know. I

00:43:49.019 --> 00:43:52.079
guess. He's a wild dude, bro. Yeah, he is wild.

00:43:52.159 --> 00:43:55.039
He is wild. You rub your ass on a couple of things.

00:43:55.159 --> 00:43:57.579
I guess you get a little wild. You go rub your

00:43:57.579 --> 00:43:59.199
ass on the wall, man. It probably hurts. Yeah,

00:43:59.219 --> 00:44:00.699
and don't bite your lips. See if you can do it.

00:44:00.760 --> 00:44:05.130
Yeah, I guess so. Is that a pain biting lip?

00:44:05.710 --> 00:44:07.449
I don't know. You gotta look at his eyes. What

00:44:07.449 --> 00:44:11.190
are his eyes doing? He looks pretty into it.

00:44:11.329 --> 00:44:19.250
Okay. There's your answer. All right. Anything

00:44:19.250 --> 00:44:24.329
else for graphics? I did. I mean, well, yeah.

00:44:24.929 --> 00:44:28.710
The cut scenes are funny. I mean. Yeah, yeah.

00:44:29.070 --> 00:44:31.449
You can tell what's going on. You see what's

00:44:31.449 --> 00:44:33.590
happening. Yeah, I mean, yeah. The cutscenes

00:44:33.590 --> 00:44:37.110
are freaking funny. They're not horrible. They're

00:44:37.110 --> 00:44:39.309
just a product of their time. Yeah, they just

00:44:39.309 --> 00:44:41.590
show their age. Yep, for sure. And, dude, those

00:44:41.590 --> 00:44:45.630
cutscenes, he, Wild Woody, reminds me, like,

00:44:45.710 --> 00:44:48.829
they try to impersonate, like, Jim Carrey. Yeah,

00:44:48.869 --> 00:44:50.210
you know what? I can see that, definitely, yeah.

00:44:50.750 --> 00:44:53.789
Yeah. That's the first thing I thought of. It

00:44:53.789 --> 00:44:55.750
was the mid -90s. Jim Carrey was all over the

00:44:55.750 --> 00:44:58.280
fucking place. So, yeah. Yup. I can see that.

00:44:58.519 --> 00:45:00.880
That was the first thing I thought of. I even

00:45:00.880 --> 00:45:03.940
thought he voiced him or something. Yeah, you

00:45:03.940 --> 00:45:06.639
know what? I didn't catch that. I would believe

00:45:06.639 --> 00:45:10.739
that. No, some dude, he voice acted in another

00:45:10.739 --> 00:45:13.280
game. Yeah, I don't think he did much, but I

00:45:13.280 --> 00:45:15.920
mean... No, he didn't do much, but... I'm not

00:45:15.920 --> 00:45:17.539
saying he did, I'm just saying if you told me...

00:45:17.539 --> 00:45:19.019
No, I'm just saying you can look that guy up

00:45:19.019 --> 00:45:22.219
on the internet and he shows up. Alright, so

00:45:22.219 --> 00:45:25.480
honestly for a Sega CD game, the graphics are...

00:45:25.820 --> 00:45:28.199
Not that impressive. Not for a CD game. This

00:45:28.199 --> 00:45:31.780
could have been on a Genesis, just regular Genesis.

00:45:32.659 --> 00:45:35.900
However... Besides the bonus problem with the

00:45:35.900 --> 00:45:39.360
3D. Well, yeah, that stuff. But I think the big

00:45:39.360 --> 00:45:46.159
thing for the CD here is the sound. This soundtrack

00:45:46.159 --> 00:45:50.000
is freaking awesome, dude. I love it. It's just

00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:53.860
heavy rock and roll soundtrack. Oh, it's so good,

00:45:53.960 --> 00:45:56.650
dude. And it's so cool. quirky too it's it's

00:45:56.650 --> 00:45:59.030
really eclectic but and i love it i think it

00:45:59.030 --> 00:46:01.429
matches the game's vibes it's got that kind of

00:46:01.429 --> 00:46:05.309
crazy bass yeah i just got weird sound effects

00:46:05.309 --> 00:46:07.469
like the industrial level just like hey okay

00:46:07.469 --> 00:46:12.750
yeah and then the freaking pirate boss they start

00:46:12.750 --> 00:46:15.309
rapping i was like what's what is going on in

00:46:15.309 --> 00:46:18.670
this game dude but yeah it's it's awesome it's

00:46:18.670 --> 00:46:21.369
just good heavy guitars metal drums like i love

00:46:21.369 --> 00:46:24.289
it it's really good Yeah, it's awesome. Yeah,

00:46:24.329 --> 00:46:26.989
and that bonus world one was just like, say it,

00:46:27.070 --> 00:46:31.130
Sega! Oh man, I love it. It's like my favorite

00:46:31.130 --> 00:46:33.869
song now. It's insane. This soundtrack was like

00:46:33.869 --> 00:46:35.869
immediately put in my library. I love it so much.

00:46:36.309 --> 00:46:38.610
Yeah, that's probably my favorite part of the

00:46:38.610 --> 00:46:40.469
game. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, it definitely stands

00:46:40.469 --> 00:46:43.949
out. The game's not that great, but this was

00:46:43.949 --> 00:46:45.909
one of the best soundtracks for the Sega CD for

00:46:45.909 --> 00:46:48.309
sure. It's so good. I read somewhere they only

00:46:48.309 --> 00:46:50.190
gave them like a month to write the soundtrack.

00:46:50.369 --> 00:46:53.900
Wow, really? Wow. Yeah, it was super short. That's

00:46:53.900 --> 00:46:56.059
pretty good, man, yeah. And then we talked about

00:46:56.059 --> 00:46:59.719
it a little bit, but the VA for the cutscenes

00:46:59.719 --> 00:47:01.860
were actually decent. It wasn't bad. No, it's

00:47:01.860 --> 00:47:04.860
good. Compared to some video games, especially

00:47:04.860 --> 00:47:08.260
around this time, this was... Yeah, I don't think

00:47:08.260 --> 00:47:12.219
I really thought about it, really. It's natural.

00:47:13.579 --> 00:47:16.599
It doesn't sound out of place. They definitely

00:47:16.599 --> 00:47:18.199
had a vision for this game, and they stuck to

00:47:18.199 --> 00:47:19.679
it all the way through, for sure, on everything.

00:47:19.880 --> 00:47:23.849
Just a quirky, weird... esoteric game there is

00:47:23.849 --> 00:47:26.130
one thing i want to ask ryan and jacob you guys

00:47:26.130 --> 00:47:29.090
probably weren't as familiar but eric did any

00:47:29.090 --> 00:47:30.690
of those sound effects sound familiar to you

00:47:30.690 --> 00:47:35.829
yeah i knew it yes i knew i was gonna ask you

00:47:35.829 --> 00:47:39.869
the same question x -men right yeah x -men 2

00:47:39.869 --> 00:47:42.550
i looked this up i think the sound designer for

00:47:42.550 --> 00:47:45.329
x -men 2 worked on this game i was gonna ask

00:47:45.329 --> 00:47:47.809
you the same freaking question i knew you would

00:47:47.809 --> 00:47:53.210
notice it oh my god dude Yes, dude. That's funny.

00:47:53.489 --> 00:47:55.789
Oh, my God. I was like, the first time I heard

00:47:55.789 --> 00:47:57.969
it, I'm like, huh, that sounds familiar. Yeah.

00:47:58.010 --> 00:48:00.090
I'm like, oh, wait, hold on a second. Yeah, and

00:48:00.090 --> 00:48:01.409
then I heard a couple more, and I was like, wait

00:48:01.409 --> 00:48:04.610
a minute. This is a straight rip from that game,

00:48:04.730 --> 00:48:07.210
bro. Like the clams, the clams were the one boss

00:48:07.210 --> 00:48:11.369
or whatever. Yeah. The bombs. Yeah, yeah. Yeah,

00:48:11.389 --> 00:48:16.949
yeah, the bombs. So, Jacob and Ryan, me and Eric

00:48:16.949 --> 00:48:19.050
played the ever -loving crap out of X -Men 2

00:48:19.050 --> 00:48:21.989
on the Genesis. And there are some sound effects

00:48:21.989 --> 00:48:24.449
in this game that are literally not sound -alikes.

00:48:24.449 --> 00:48:30.190
They are straight from X -Men 2. And so I looked

00:48:30.190 --> 00:48:32.369
it up, and I'm pretty sure his name was Mark.

00:48:32.510 --> 00:48:35.269
Hold on. I got it up over here. Mark Stephen

00:48:35.269 --> 00:48:37.710
Miller. He's in the credits for both games, so

00:48:37.710 --> 00:48:39.750
I'm pretty sure he's the one. That makes sense.

00:48:39.929 --> 00:48:44.409
Yeah. That's so funny, dude. I was going to text

00:48:44.409 --> 00:48:47.070
you, and I'm like... Some of these sound effects

00:48:47.070 --> 00:48:49.670
sound familiar. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's

00:48:49.670 --> 00:48:51.730
why. I'm pretty sure it's the same guy. That's

00:48:51.730 --> 00:48:53.130
funny, though. I'm glad you noticed it, because

00:48:53.130 --> 00:48:54.789
I was like, you know what? I'm pretty sure Eric's

00:48:54.789 --> 00:48:57.289
going to notice this. Oh, dude, for sure. How

00:48:57.289 --> 00:49:00.269
could I not, man? Yeah, that's definitely...

00:49:00.269 --> 00:49:03.510
Dude, I wish I had a log of how many hours I

00:49:03.510 --> 00:49:05.949
put on some of those old games. Oh my god, dude.

00:49:06.190 --> 00:49:09.309
X -Men 2 would be up there, for sure. We played

00:49:09.309 --> 00:49:13.469
that game every day for years. And never beat

00:49:13.469 --> 00:49:15.070
it. I still haven't beat that damn game. That

00:49:15.070 --> 00:49:18.329
game is hard as hell, dude. Well, we spent like

00:49:18.329 --> 00:49:21.230
80 % of the time resetting it just to get the

00:49:21.230 --> 00:49:22.869
right character. We played it a couple years

00:49:22.869 --> 00:49:24.889
ago. It's so much harder with two people. It

00:49:24.889 --> 00:49:26.190
is so much harder with two people. Oh, yeah.

00:49:26.650 --> 00:49:28.769
It is. Because the screen doesn't let you go.

00:49:28.889 --> 00:49:31.550
It runs at like 15 frames instead of 30. Yeah.

00:49:31.650 --> 00:49:33.590
Oh, man. And then, like you said, the screen

00:49:33.590 --> 00:49:36.530
doesn't let you go past a certain spot. All right.

00:49:37.110 --> 00:49:40.090
Anyway. That's so funny you said that, dude.

00:49:40.230 --> 00:49:42.829
I know. That's funny. All right, any last words?

00:49:42.949 --> 00:49:45.429
Anything else you want to say about Wild Woody?

00:49:45.730 --> 00:49:48.070
I think we covered most of it. Yeah, I think

00:49:48.070 --> 00:49:50.869
so. Like I said, man, I feel like this kind of

00:49:50.869 --> 00:49:52.929
was a missed opportunity of a game. If it had

00:49:52.929 --> 00:49:54.630
just been given just a little bit more love,

00:49:54.809 --> 00:49:56.150
I think this game would have been talked about

00:49:56.150 --> 00:49:59.789
a little bit more. This game deserves so much

00:49:59.789 --> 00:50:01.989
more. Yeah, man, I really think they had something

00:50:01.989 --> 00:50:04.150
good on their hands here. They just kind of dropped

00:50:04.150 --> 00:50:06.269
the ball a little bit. Which, I mean, I can kind

00:50:06.269 --> 00:50:07.949
of understand. I think they were shut down after

00:50:07.949 --> 00:50:09.949
this game, so I think they all kind of saw the

00:50:09.949 --> 00:50:13.500
writing on the wall. I think you read the same

00:50:13.500 --> 00:50:15.400
thing. They knew this game was going straight

00:50:15.400 --> 00:50:18.280
to a bargain bin. They knew this game was not

00:50:18.280 --> 00:50:21.760
going to be a profit. And it's funny, too, because

00:50:21.760 --> 00:50:24.719
at the ending cutscene, they make a joke about

00:50:24.719 --> 00:50:27.320
a second game. He's like, if we sell a million

00:50:27.320 --> 00:50:30.119
copies, maybe. I think he said a zillion, right?

00:50:30.380 --> 00:50:34.739
Something like that. Yeah, if it just had a little

00:50:34.739 --> 00:50:38.440
bit of polish, man, it would have been... A little

00:50:38.440 --> 00:50:42.190
bit more than that. Well, yeah, I know. If I

00:50:42.190 --> 00:50:43.710
knew how, I would try and mod it and actually

00:50:43.710 --> 00:50:47.550
make it a little bit better. If this game was

00:50:47.550 --> 00:50:51.210
made a year or two earlier, I think it would

00:50:51.210 --> 00:50:55.949
have gotten it. Or if they ported it over to

00:50:55.949 --> 00:51:00.170
the Saturn, maybe. Yeah, true. I'm not too sure

00:51:00.170 --> 00:51:03.329
why they didn't do that. I guess different engines

00:51:03.329 --> 00:51:06.110
and stuff. Yeah, who knows. I'm sure that was

00:51:06.110 --> 00:51:09.010
probably code hell back then. Yeah, who knows.

00:51:10.009 --> 00:51:12.210
Coding hell. I think the Saturn was incredibly

00:51:12.210 --> 00:51:15.050
difficult to code for. That's one of the reasons

00:51:15.050 --> 00:51:20.030
why the PS1 took off. Call me Woody. Wild Woody.

00:51:20.769 --> 00:51:22.469
All right, so that's it for Wild Woody gameplay

00:51:22.469 --> 00:51:24.210
and all that stuff. So let's go ahead and jump

00:51:24.210 --> 00:51:26.070
over to the achievements. If anybody's interested,

00:51:26.230 --> 00:51:28.570
we do retro achievements. It's a website where

00:51:28.570 --> 00:51:29.989
you can sign up and then you can start earning

00:51:29.989 --> 00:51:32.030
achievements for old retro games. It's a lot

00:51:32.030 --> 00:51:34.769
of fun. I love doing it. So this game has 46

00:51:34.769 --> 00:51:37.809
achievements worth 429 points, which is pretty

00:51:37.809 --> 00:51:40.480
high for a game, isn't it? Nah, I think this

00:51:40.480 --> 00:51:42.800
is kind of low for this game. Is it? Okay. Yeah.

00:51:42.960 --> 00:51:44.380
What's the average on the games? What is it,

00:51:44.440 --> 00:51:47.400
like 600, 500? I guess it's just all over the

00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:49.039
place, yeah. Depends on the difficulty of the

00:51:49.039 --> 00:51:51.440
game, yeah. And how many achievements they decide

00:51:51.440 --> 00:51:52.639
to add to it, too. Yeah, I mean, I guess 46 is

00:51:52.639 --> 00:51:55.659
quite a lot, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Usually, I think,

00:51:55.659 --> 00:51:59.880
like, 10 points is, like, average for each achievement,

00:52:00.019 --> 00:52:02.659
probably. Yeah, I see what you're saying. From

00:52:02.659 --> 00:52:03.880
what I've seen. I think this one's a little under.

00:52:04.519 --> 00:52:07.219
Yeah. All right, did you guys master this game?

00:52:07.420 --> 00:52:09.789
Oh, go ahead. I was going to say, one achievement

00:52:09.789 --> 00:52:11.849
doesn't even give you any points. Well, yeah,

00:52:11.889 --> 00:52:15.010
that's the cheat thing. It's a stupid achievement.

00:52:15.670 --> 00:52:18.230
That is something we could throw in there. But

00:52:18.230 --> 00:52:22.829
anyway, did you guys master this game? No. No.

00:52:24.030 --> 00:52:29.090
No. I haven't yet either. Are you going to? I

00:52:29.090 --> 00:52:32.409
plan on it. I would like to. I'm not 100 % sure.

00:52:33.090 --> 00:52:34.949
Yeah, I'm definitely going to try to. I just

00:52:34.949 --> 00:52:37.449
need to get... So they have... So basically just

00:52:37.449 --> 00:52:39.349
beat the game and then beat the game on hard.

00:52:39.809 --> 00:52:41.889
And then it's fine. All the collectibles basically.

00:52:42.150 --> 00:52:44.130
So this game has like Easter eggs, which we didn't

00:52:44.130 --> 00:52:45.570
really talk about too much, but there's like

00:52:45.570 --> 00:52:47.829
hidden literally Easter eggs in the game that

00:52:47.829 --> 00:52:50.110
you can pick up and then it'll make a random

00:52:50.110 --> 00:52:52.710
enemy spawn in the level. And then they have

00:52:52.710 --> 00:52:55.530
in the bonus worlds where when you pick up a

00:52:55.530 --> 00:52:58.550
certain item, if you hold certain button combination,

00:52:58.750 --> 00:53:01.389
it'll make a, another enemy or like an item show

00:53:01.389 --> 00:53:03.929
up. And then if you grab that, uh, you get extra

00:53:03.929 --> 00:53:06.670
power ups and stuff. There's achievements for

00:53:06.670 --> 00:53:09.590
all of that. And then the hardest fucking achievements

00:53:09.590 --> 00:53:13.630
in this game is getting all of the one -ups on

00:53:13.630 --> 00:53:17.449
each level. It's such a bitch. Oh, my God. Those

00:53:17.449 --> 00:53:19.170
achievements. Like, if it wasn't for those ones,

00:53:19.250 --> 00:53:20.550
I don't think this achievement list would be

00:53:20.550 --> 00:53:25.809
that hard. No. But just. But because of those

00:53:25.809 --> 00:53:27.570
ones. Again, like you said, with the level design.

00:53:27.929 --> 00:53:32.329
Yeah. And they're hidden. Yeah. They're tough

00:53:32.329 --> 00:53:35.159
to find, dude. That one industrial level is pretty

00:53:35.159 --> 00:53:37.079
crazy because you have to like switch a bunch

00:53:37.079 --> 00:53:40.059
of switches. I know. It was tough. I know. I

00:53:40.059 --> 00:53:42.079
know you said you turned on debug mode, which

00:53:42.079 --> 00:53:43.800
you can just, when you have debug mode on, you

00:53:43.800 --> 00:53:46.500
can just fly around the level and then you have

00:53:46.500 --> 00:53:48.000
coordinates. So you can just write it all down

00:53:48.000 --> 00:53:49.059
and figure out where everything is. And then

00:53:49.059 --> 00:53:50.500
you go back through and actually play the level.

00:53:50.599 --> 00:53:52.739
So just pretty smart, pretty smart way to do

00:53:52.739 --> 00:53:55.179
it. If anybody ever needs those coordinates,

00:53:55.280 --> 00:53:57.079
I haven't written them down. Yeah, we could,

00:53:57.099 --> 00:53:59.179
you can post them on the forum for the, I've

00:53:59.179 --> 00:54:01.889
been thinking about going on the, yeah. Retro

00:54:01.889 --> 00:54:03.210
achievement and put them on there, but I don't

00:54:03.210 --> 00:54:06.269
know. I wanted to do that for Real Rose. I had

00:54:06.269 --> 00:54:08.030
a list of all the collectibles in order. I need

00:54:08.030 --> 00:54:11.369
to go and put that on there. Yeah, I might do

00:54:11.369 --> 00:54:15.650
it. Anyway, so yeah, I feel like this set's pretty

00:54:15.650 --> 00:54:18.590
moderate, except for those, because of those

00:54:18.590 --> 00:54:20.329
extra live ones, I feel like this is a pretty

00:54:20.329 --> 00:54:23.250
hard achievement list. And just because of the

00:54:23.250 --> 00:54:25.449
gameplay, too. It just doesn't make it easier.

00:54:27.980 --> 00:54:30.380
I don't know. I don't know if I like this. It

00:54:30.380 --> 00:54:32.079
would be fine if it wasn't for all those extra

00:54:32.079 --> 00:54:34.980
life ones, you know? Yeah. I mean, I get it.

00:54:34.980 --> 00:54:38.000
It's a collectible thing. Yeah. I don't know.

00:54:40.099 --> 00:54:42.380
It's a mediocre list. I don't know. It's mediocre.

00:54:42.659 --> 00:54:44.880
Yeah. I mean, it doesn't really do anything out

00:54:44.880 --> 00:54:47.539
of the way, so. No. Just why do you need to find

00:54:47.539 --> 00:54:50.139
every extra life? So I feel like it's unnecessary,

00:54:50.360 --> 00:54:53.840
but whatever. True. All right. So that's the

00:54:53.840 --> 00:54:56.710
achievements. Oh, there is one achievement to

00:54:56.710 --> 00:55:00.550
find, like, there's, like, an adult secret, I

00:55:00.550 --> 00:55:04.610
guess. Mm -hmm. One of the mermaid sketches,

00:55:04.829 --> 00:55:07.309
you can get her to have her tits out, which is

00:55:07.309 --> 00:55:10.650
kind of funny, but... Yeah, you have to, like,

00:55:10.650 --> 00:55:11.969
do all this extra shit. It's just so ridiculous.

00:55:12.250 --> 00:55:14.429
It's weird. I don't know why they did that, but...

00:55:14.429 --> 00:55:17.030
Yeah, and it's, like, crazy hard to do. Yeah,

00:55:17.070 --> 00:55:18.289
you have to, like, run around the level in debug

00:55:18.289 --> 00:55:20.849
mode. It's crazy, but... Yeah. It's in there

00:55:20.849 --> 00:55:23.460
if you want to see animated... Titties, there

00:55:23.460 --> 00:55:27.139
you go. Yeah, Sega CD. It's literally two pixels.

00:55:27.599 --> 00:55:30.719
I just did it for the achievement. Yeah, yeah.

00:55:31.460 --> 00:55:35.420
That's what they all say. No other reason. Alright,

00:55:35.619 --> 00:55:39.079
so that's Wild Woody. Let's go ahead and if anybody

00:55:39.079 --> 00:55:40.679
has nothing else to say, we're all good, right?

00:55:41.239 --> 00:55:44.199
I think so. Let's go ahead and jump over to the

00:55:44.199 --> 00:56:57.809
final verdict. the final verdict uh we don't

00:56:57.809 --> 00:56:59.750
use scores or numbering we just use a very simple

00:56:59.750 --> 00:57:02.170
system did you enjoy the game and would you recommend

00:57:02.170 --> 00:57:04.230
the game uh because that's what it's all about

00:57:04.230 --> 00:57:06.969
right who wants to go first for the final verdict

00:57:06.969 --> 00:57:10.670
i think i can go first all right did you enjoy

00:57:10.670 --> 00:57:16.369
the game initially no but um the more and more

00:57:16.369 --> 00:57:18.309
i forced myself to play it i started enjoying

00:57:18.309 --> 00:57:23.190
it more it's it's hard to to enjoy this game

00:57:23.190 --> 00:57:25.250
at first Just because you're like, these controls

00:57:25.250 --> 00:57:28.809
suck. But if you can force yourself to learn

00:57:28.809 --> 00:57:30.969
them, it definitely does get more enjoyable.

00:57:31.829 --> 00:57:34.010
It's just difficult. Very difficult at first

00:57:34.010 --> 00:57:36.889
to get used to. Yeah, I can agree with that.

00:57:37.250 --> 00:57:40.610
So would you recommend the game? I think so.

00:57:40.730 --> 00:57:45.610
If you can force yourself past that point where

00:57:45.610 --> 00:57:50.309
you learn the crazy controls and the level design

00:57:50.309 --> 00:57:54.550
and the quirks. I think it's worth it, man. I

00:57:54.550 --> 00:57:57.889
really do. Wow. It's not a super long game, so.

00:57:58.110 --> 00:58:02.070
It is short, yeah. I think if you spend enough

00:58:02.070 --> 00:58:05.010
time, I think it's definitely worth it. Okay.

00:58:05.210 --> 00:58:09.409
I actually wasn't expecting it, so. Yeah. I think

00:58:09.409 --> 00:58:11.949
it's, like you said, I think it's quirky enough.

00:58:12.130 --> 00:58:15.889
It's got its own charm. The cut scenes are funny.

00:58:16.690 --> 00:58:19.730
The levels, again, they're cool. They have some

00:58:19.730 --> 00:58:23.750
cool concepts, some cool ideas. Yeah. Do you

00:58:23.750 --> 00:58:25.849
need to do everything? I don't think so, but

00:58:25.849 --> 00:58:29.090
I think it's worth a playthrough. Okay. I mean,

00:58:29.110 --> 00:58:31.349
especially for a system that doesn't have a lot

00:58:31.349 --> 00:58:34.789
of games on it anyway. All right. Who's next?

00:58:34.889 --> 00:58:39.789
It's got its own charm. Yep. Ryan? Yeah, I don't

00:58:39.789 --> 00:58:44.769
think I enjoyed this game. It's hard to say because

00:58:44.769 --> 00:58:48.150
I didn't enjoy the gameplay of it. The levels

00:58:48.150 --> 00:58:53.150
are just too ridiculous. They're just too convoluted

00:58:53.150 --> 00:58:58.530
and too just mazy. And the controls, dude, they're

00:58:58.530 --> 00:59:04.369
just... They're rough. And that's putting it

00:59:04.369 --> 00:59:07.469
lightly. But everything else around it, though...

00:59:07.469 --> 00:59:11.989
Like, I don't know. The soundtrack is just fucking

00:59:11.989 --> 00:59:16.230
amazing. And the overall charm and the actual

00:59:16.230 --> 00:59:21.190
graphics of the game are levels ahead of... controls

00:59:21.190 --> 00:59:26.949
and gameplay so it it's it's tough i think this

00:59:26.949 --> 00:59:31.130
game would be better to watch gameplay so you

00:59:31.130 --> 00:59:33.789
don't have to suffer through actually playing

00:59:33.789 --> 00:59:36.929
it but you get you can watch and see the the

00:59:36.929 --> 00:59:39.530
cool like the the funny comedy in the cut scenes

00:59:39.530 --> 00:59:44.630
and um just and like actually listen to the music

00:59:44.630 --> 00:59:48.989
and i think that's way more enjoyable But I don't

00:59:48.989 --> 00:59:51.710
think there's really a lot of that on the internet,

00:59:51.849 --> 00:59:55.250
really. Yeah, I was going to say, this is I think

00:59:55.250 --> 00:59:58.889
the first game we played where there is minimal

00:59:58.889 --> 01:00:00.789
amount of information on this game. I was trying

01:00:00.789 --> 01:00:02.889
to find names for this game. Impossible. They

01:00:02.889 --> 01:00:04.789
just don't exist. Yeah, nothing exists. Nothing

01:00:04.789 --> 01:00:08.670
exists. There's only like three videos of people

01:00:08.670 --> 01:00:10.349
finishing this game. I was going to say, I wish

01:00:10.349 --> 01:00:11.789
I could record this game, but I don't own it.

01:00:11.929 --> 01:00:15.630
Yeah, I was going to say, you can find it. We

01:00:15.630 --> 01:00:18.960
might have it on our channel, maybe. Maybe someday.

01:00:21.260 --> 01:00:25.500
100%. I think if you can find it, I would definitely

01:00:25.500 --> 01:00:29.099
recommend watching this game rather than playing

01:00:29.099 --> 01:00:31.820
it. And I don't think I'd recommend playing it

01:00:31.820 --> 01:00:36.280
either. It's just... It is such a... I don't

01:00:36.280 --> 01:00:38.340
even want to say a chore. I think it's just kind

01:00:38.340 --> 01:00:41.860
of tortured to kind of play this game. But like

01:00:41.860 --> 01:00:45.179
I said, everything else around it is actually

01:00:45.179 --> 01:00:49.480
surprisingly really good. It's just funny. You

01:00:49.480 --> 01:00:51.960
look at the controls and the gameplay, which

01:00:51.960 --> 01:00:57.179
is like a fucking sub -level standard, and then

01:00:57.179 --> 01:01:00.559
everything else is just way higher. Yeah, true.

01:01:00.940 --> 01:01:03.400
Probably because that's where the hardest part

01:01:03.400 --> 01:01:05.619
of the game design is, is the freaking controls.

01:01:05.639 --> 01:01:10.420
At least back then, anyway. Yeah, probably. This

01:01:10.420 --> 01:01:14.099
game just kept drawing me back to play it. Like

01:01:14.099 --> 01:01:17.559
I said, a few forces... You're going to get aggravated.

01:01:17.579 --> 01:01:19.440
This game is aggravating, but if you can force

01:01:19.440 --> 01:01:21.460
yourself through it, I totally think it's worth

01:01:21.460 --> 01:01:23.440
playing. Like I said, it's short. You can run

01:01:23.440 --> 01:01:26.019
through it. Maybe I wish they spent more time

01:01:26.019 --> 01:01:32.079
with the controls and animating mermaid jugs.

01:01:33.579 --> 01:01:35.960
Jacob, what do you got? Did you enjoy the game?

01:01:36.599 --> 01:01:40.519
No, not really. I know we've said it over and

01:01:40.519 --> 01:01:43.300
over again, but the controls are absolutely horrible.

01:01:43.460 --> 01:01:48.820
I kept falling in this game. I tried. It's just...

01:01:48.820 --> 01:01:52.360
These controls are so icky. There's a couple

01:01:52.360 --> 01:01:54.960
levels where you'll just fall and then you go

01:01:54.960 --> 01:01:57.579
halfway down the level and you have to go all

01:01:57.579 --> 01:01:59.739
the way back over again. So yeah, that's annoying.

01:02:00.480 --> 01:02:03.019
Yeah, it's aggravating. And the level design

01:02:03.019 --> 01:02:06.980
was also just too much for me. There was no cohesion

01:02:06.980 --> 01:02:10.360
to it. It felt like it was all just put together.

01:02:10.880 --> 01:02:13.429
They just made a map. And they didn't flesh anything

01:02:13.429 --> 01:02:15.130
out. They're just like, yep, this is what we're

01:02:15.130 --> 01:02:17.309
going to do. Yeah, I didn't enjoy it, really.

01:02:18.329 --> 01:02:22.730
So, would you recommend it? No. There's a bunch

01:02:22.730 --> 01:02:26.289
of other good platformers for the Genesis. And

01:02:26.289 --> 01:02:28.190
I know we're talking about the CD, but I mean...

01:02:28.190 --> 01:02:31.989
I mean, you could play Sonic CD. Sonic CD's fine.

01:02:32.289 --> 01:02:35.409
It's all good and dandy. But there's other platformers

01:02:35.409 --> 01:02:39.829
from this time that are actually fun and won't

01:02:39.829 --> 01:02:40.989
make you want to throw your controller halfway

01:02:40.989 --> 01:02:43.719
across the room. and have good map design all

01:02:43.719 --> 01:02:47.719
right yeah i mean same stuff i mean the controls

01:02:47.719 --> 01:02:51.599
are awful and it's not even really like the controls

01:02:51.599 --> 01:02:55.139
he controls okay it's just the hit boxes man

01:02:55.139 --> 01:02:57.320
trying to hit stuff is so hard i mean i guess

01:02:57.320 --> 01:02:59.739
it is controls but i don't know just like trying

01:02:59.739 --> 01:03:02.219
to grab a rope i've never fought with anything

01:03:02.219 --> 01:03:04.460
so hard as i did when grabbing ropes in this

01:03:04.460 --> 01:03:07.880
game it's ridiculous um So, yeah, it really does

01:03:07.880 --> 01:03:09.639
kill the game, which sucks because there is a

01:03:09.639 --> 01:03:11.519
lot of good in here. You know, like the music,

01:03:11.579 --> 01:03:14.940
the design, just the overall character arc and

01:03:14.940 --> 01:03:18.059
stuff. Like, the story was decent. The level

01:03:18.059 --> 01:03:20.780
designs, I mean, they're fine. They're not great.

01:03:20.940 --> 01:03:23.119
They're not awful. I don't know. I feel like

01:03:23.119 --> 01:03:24.219
they're kind of in the middle. Like, you just

01:03:24.219 --> 01:03:25.539
kind of have to figure out the layout and then

01:03:25.539 --> 01:03:28.920
it's not too bad. So, I mean, I did enjoy this

01:03:28.920 --> 01:03:32.460
game. You know, once you kind of figure out the

01:03:32.460 --> 01:03:34.639
wonkiness of the jumping and everything, it's

01:03:34.639 --> 01:03:37.329
really not that hard. I mean, there's still a

01:03:37.329 --> 01:03:40.670
challenge, but once you get a feel of it, I felt

01:03:40.670 --> 01:03:42.050
like I would be able to run through the game

01:03:42.050 --> 01:03:43.869
a little bit more, and I was enjoying it and

01:03:43.869 --> 01:03:45.230
seeing the levels and stuff. I was like, all

01:03:45.230 --> 01:03:48.170
right, this is cool. Would I recommend it? No,

01:03:48.369 --> 01:03:51.449
I don't think so. As fun as this game could be,

01:03:51.670 --> 01:03:54.750
it's just too frustrating, and I don't feel like

01:03:54.750 --> 01:03:57.530
enough people would be willing to put up the

01:03:57.530 --> 01:04:01.550
time to learn the controls. Is this a first?

01:04:01.949 --> 01:04:04.880
What, not recommended? Yeah. No, I'm not recommending

01:04:04.880 --> 01:04:08.460
games. I don't think so. Oh, okay. No, I do every

01:04:08.460 --> 01:04:11.840
once in a while, but as much as I like the game...

01:04:11.840 --> 01:04:14.139
Oh, you didn't recommend, bro. Yeah. As much

01:04:14.139 --> 01:04:15.820
as I like this game, I wouldn't recommend it,

01:04:15.860 --> 01:04:19.420
but... Dang, bro. That's crazy. Yeah, I know.

01:04:19.519 --> 01:04:21.440
I would like to. I really would like to, but

01:04:21.440 --> 01:04:23.280
I just don't think it's just quite good enough.

01:04:24.239 --> 01:04:26.380
It's not polished. It's definitely not a polished

01:04:26.380 --> 01:04:29.059
game. Yeah. Which sucks. If you're really into

01:04:29.059 --> 01:04:31.739
old -school 2D sprites with a challenge, then

01:04:31.739 --> 01:04:33.789
yeah, definitely, but... For the majority of

01:04:33.789 --> 01:04:37.750
people, no. All right. Is this anybody's new

01:04:37.750 --> 01:04:41.690
least or most favorite? Nope. I don't think so.

01:04:41.909 --> 01:04:44.269
Yeah, I don't think it's changed anything. Yeah,

01:04:44.329 --> 01:04:48.690
I think it's all the same. Okay. All right. Gamers

01:04:48.690 --> 01:04:50.489
out there, what did you guys think? If you played

01:04:50.489 --> 01:04:52.329
the game, did you enjoy it? Would you recommend

01:04:52.329 --> 01:04:55.920
it? Let us know. Okay, that's enough of Wild

01:04:55.920 --> 01:05:00.159
Woody. Next, we're going to go to our next game,

01:05:00.320 --> 01:05:08.440
which is Yoshi's Topsy Turvy. So, do we have

01:05:08.440 --> 01:05:12.000
any prior experience with this game? Yeah, I

01:05:12.000 --> 01:05:15.420
do too. I played it. I don't think I ever beat

01:05:15.420 --> 01:05:18.139
this one. I can't remember if I beat this or

01:05:18.139 --> 01:05:21.869
not. I think I did, but I beat it as a kid. Yeah.

01:05:21.969 --> 01:05:25.469
So, it's been a long time. How is this going

01:05:25.469 --> 01:05:29.110
to work in emulation? There's a patch for it

01:05:29.110 --> 01:05:32.510
where you just use L and R. Oh, okay. All right.

01:05:32.570 --> 01:05:34.389
So, yeah, for anyone who doesn't know, the original

01:05:34.389 --> 01:05:37.869
Game Boy Advance cartridge had an accelerometer

01:05:37.869 --> 01:05:39.570
in it, and you actually had to tilt the Game

01:05:39.570 --> 01:05:41.469
Boy left and right, which is pretty cool. It

01:05:41.469 --> 01:05:43.050
would be cool if there was a mod for this game

01:05:43.050 --> 01:05:45.730
where if you used, like, a PS3 or PS4 controller,

01:05:45.889 --> 01:05:47.789
if you could, like, control it that way. What

01:05:47.789 --> 01:05:51.190
are the Switch controls? Yeah, that'd be pretty

01:05:51.190 --> 01:05:53.170
cool. Because I know these things have, what's

01:05:53.170 --> 01:05:55.929
it called? Accelerometer zoom, yeah. Yeah, yeah,

01:05:56.010 --> 01:05:59.710
yeah. I think you can do it on certain emulators.

01:06:00.070 --> 01:06:02.269
I was looking it up earlier. I think you can

01:06:02.269 --> 01:06:04.889
do it. That's pretty cool. Yeah, I might check

01:06:04.889 --> 01:06:07.329
that out. Alright, let's go ahead and take a

01:06:07.329 --> 01:06:09.550
look at the front art here. So you got Yoshi

01:06:09.550 --> 01:06:13.750
on a giant ball about to fucking murder some

01:06:13.750 --> 01:06:19.320
shy guys. Those poor shy guys. Yeah. They're

01:06:19.320 --> 01:06:21.099
running away from Yoshi about to squish their

01:06:21.099 --> 01:06:23.599
ass. He's so happy about it, too. Yeah, he looks

01:06:23.599 --> 01:06:28.820
so happy. Pretty funny. Psychopath. And you got

01:06:28.820 --> 01:06:31.880
some pictures of what I assume are the bosses

01:06:31.880 --> 01:06:34.780
down there. Yeah, those are the bosses. And then

01:06:34.780 --> 01:06:37.280
it says, I'm using Tolkien. Yeah, it does say

01:06:37.280 --> 01:06:42.760
that, yeah. Oh, yeah, you could use the Wii remote,

01:06:42.880 --> 01:06:46.079
too, Jacob. Oh, nice. That'd probably be pretty

01:06:46.079 --> 01:06:48.760
easy, right? I don't know if you can. I'm just

01:06:48.760 --> 01:06:50.679
saying you should be able to because it has an

01:06:50.679 --> 01:06:52.760
accelerometer too. You know what I mean? Yeah,

01:06:52.800 --> 01:06:57.099
I know what you're saying. Anyway, so pretty

01:06:57.099 --> 01:06:59.079
simple front cover. I like it though. I always

01:06:59.079 --> 01:07:02.019
like Yoshi covers. When did Yoshi be able to

01:07:02.019 --> 01:07:06.059
transform? When did that come about? That was

01:07:06.059 --> 01:07:09.420
Super Mario World 2, Yoshi's Island. I know,

01:07:09.460 --> 01:07:11.619
but where did they come up with that? Oh, I don't

01:07:11.619 --> 01:07:13.420
know. They're just like, let's fuck Yoshi up,

01:07:13.460 --> 01:07:15.440
I guess. I don't know. Yeah, just turn him into

01:07:15.440 --> 01:07:19.760
a helicopter. Like, what the hell? I don't know.

01:07:20.280 --> 01:07:23.519
It's freaking Yoshi's Island. Who knows? I guess

01:07:23.519 --> 01:07:25.639
anything's imaginable there. All right, let's

01:07:25.639 --> 01:07:28.239
take a look at the back here. Ryan, do you want

01:07:28.239 --> 01:07:30.940
to read it? It's your game. Yeah. Yeah, why not?

01:07:32.019 --> 01:07:34.840
All right. Yoshi's Topsy Turvy. Go full tilt.

01:07:35.519 --> 01:07:37.860
Get ready for a novel game experience as you

01:07:37.860 --> 01:07:40.679
tilt Yoshi through topsy -turvy worlds brimming

01:07:40.679 --> 01:07:44.139
with adventure. All of Yoshi's Island is trapped

01:07:44.139 --> 01:07:46.760
in a pop -up book and Yoshi can't save it on

01:07:46.760 --> 01:07:49.139
his own. You'll have to tilt the land around

01:07:49.139 --> 01:07:52.619
him to clear six chapters of the mayhem. All

01:07:52.619 --> 01:07:55.480
new game control. By tilting your Game Boy Advance,

01:07:55.659 --> 01:07:57.739
you can tilt the environment around Yoshi to

01:07:57.739 --> 01:08:00.420
knock over enemies, swing pendulums, and let

01:08:00.420 --> 01:08:05.380
Yoshi run up walls and leap huge pits. Change

01:08:05.380 --> 01:08:08.059
it up. To clear chapters, you'll have to transform

01:08:08.059 --> 01:08:10.699
Yoshi into a ship, a bouncing ball, a balloon,

01:08:10.860 --> 01:08:13.940
and more. Will this ending be happy? Collect

01:08:13.940 --> 01:08:16.279
coins, defeat enemies, or race for the finish

01:08:16.279 --> 01:08:19.140
to complete each course. Bowser's waiting at

01:08:19.140 --> 01:08:22.460
the end of it all, and he's not happy. He's not

01:08:22.460 --> 01:08:25.920
happy. Will this ending be happy? I mean, come

01:08:25.920 --> 01:08:29.699
on. Yeah, because it's Yoshi, bro. I know, I'm

01:08:29.699 --> 01:08:31.819
just saying, why are they asking? Well, maybe

01:08:31.819 --> 01:08:33.699
you gotta get 100 % to get the happy ending.

01:08:34.100 --> 01:08:36.619
You're not gonna make it a sad ending. Yeah.

01:08:37.539 --> 01:08:41.779
Only for Game Boy Advance or DS. Yeah, it says

01:08:41.779 --> 01:08:44.020
only for, and then it says Nintendo DS next to

01:08:44.020 --> 01:08:47.640
it. And then it says not compatible with other

01:08:47.640 --> 01:08:52.300
Game Boys. Yeah. Well, that's... So that's how

01:08:52.300 --> 01:08:54.539
you can transform. They're in a book, apparently.

01:08:55.260 --> 01:08:57.880
What about the first one? Well, that one doesn't

01:08:57.880 --> 01:09:01.920
make sense. I have no idea. Like, you know what's

01:09:01.920 --> 01:09:04.079
a good idea? Let's turn Yoshi into a helicopter.

01:09:04.579 --> 01:09:08.199
Let's turn him into a ship. Yeah, a ship. Oh,

01:09:08.199 --> 01:09:10.119
that's great. Look at this shy guy, bro. He's

01:09:10.119 --> 01:09:14.039
got a spike ball. That's great. I love Yoshi.

01:09:14.859 --> 01:09:16.300
Alright, are we looking forward to this game?

01:09:16.359 --> 01:09:19.779
I know I am. Yeah, definitely. This is definitely

01:09:19.779 --> 01:09:22.039
one I never finish, so to be able to put it on

01:09:22.039 --> 01:09:24.619
the list of finished games, I'm definitely looking

01:09:24.619 --> 01:09:28.359
forward to that. Yeah, bro, I'm excited. It's

01:09:28.359 --> 01:09:31.289
been so long. Picking it won't... The patch or

01:09:31.289 --> 01:09:35.050
anything, I hope it plays good, so. Yeah, I can't

01:09:35.050 --> 01:09:38.289
imagine it's that, that, uh, it works pretty

01:09:38.289 --> 01:09:41.689
well, so. Yeah. But. Yeah, I just hope, hopefully

01:09:41.689 --> 01:09:45.770
it's not, like, too difficult with the, the bumper

01:09:45.770 --> 01:09:47.550
button. It shouldn't be, because from what I

01:09:47.550 --> 01:09:50.310
remember, the tilting's not, like, insanely,

01:09:50.470 --> 01:09:54.630
like, excessive or anything. Yeah, yeah. I think

01:09:54.630 --> 01:09:56.430
you play the game and then you just have to do

01:09:56.430 --> 01:10:00.859
it to, you know, do obstacles and stuff. Obstacles.

01:10:01.300 --> 01:10:05.920
All right. Obstacles. Obstacles. That's it for

01:10:05.920 --> 01:10:09.619
us this episode. So let us know. Are you guys

01:10:09.619 --> 01:10:11.279
looking forward to it? Have you played Yoshi's

01:10:11.279 --> 01:10:13.579
Topsy Turvy? Do you remember the accelerometer?

01:10:13.720 --> 01:10:16.199
Because it was a lot of fun. All right. Until

01:10:16.199 --> 01:10:18.979
then, we'll see you for the next one. Peace.

01:10:19.920 --> 01:10:21.380
See you. See you guys. Peace out.
