I've got one of these...but i only have 3 of the 4 game cartridges...i'm missing the "Space Force" cartridge. I just saw on Ebay...its selling for $500 plus shipping...just for the cartridge! Oy! So, I'm wondering how much my console one is worth with just the 3 games...it still works, too! I bought it a long long time ago at a yard sale.
One of the two most underrated games in my ps1 games binder. Also, you can't teleport away from a Killcycle. Literally, the line he says when starting the Kamikaze attack is "Teleporters Offline. Okay baby, here I come!" And they mean it. Overhangs are rare in this game, but that's just another matter of strategy; Killcycles are less effective on levels with overhangs, so keep your enemies out in the open with them. The value of the Kamikaze is simple; Killcycle is *meant* to be expendable. He's the second cheapest Technos unit, and the strategy of him is to bleed the enemy with his BS attacks as much as possible, before going nuclear to deal massive damage. You say garbage, but that's only in Mayhem, since you just spam the blighter, so there's like... ten of them lined up to self-destruct in someone's face. Even then, he's good when your enemy has a character they're particularly good at, and you want to delete it. He's also great on the board, having one of the most devastating board effects, if your enemies aren't careful.
This game is a cultural experiment. The box says it "plays like a game, feels like a movie." That makes sense, since it's both too stiff and hands-off to FEEL like a game and too shopping to PLAY like a movie. Full-motion video was quite the peculiar trend. For a while in the 90s, it supposedly was the future of video games. It's interesting how this sort of thing can easily be recreated with a DVD player or a crappy 2000s computer running Microsoft PowerPoint. And more people would rather make and play games resembling the retro 2D graphics of the 8-bit era than make full-motion video games. This is more like an X-rated version of some DVD menu game they throw in with your kids' meal at Wendy's. 'Get on the stick' - old-times expression meaning "get a move on it" or "get started, even if it makes you uncomfortable," though it sounds like in this context it means something else. Is this game porn? Who knows. It's like a parody of porn. One centered around the bad acting. Why was bad acting in porno flicks ever a popular thing? Why can't old porn just cut to the chase? Why did people buy a $30 VHS with "40 minutes of sexy content" when only 1 minute could contain any form of intimacy or nudity? Were there some local laws in some areas that required these VHS porn tapes to have everyone pretend to be plumbers, accountants, pizza delivery guys? Mario makes a more convincing plumber than any of these plumbers.
i got that game (unholy wars). if it was a hidden gem on ps1, it was much mora in the souther Latam's country, in a secondary town were didn't existed blockbusters, you know, you had a few shops that change their repertories every month, and as a kid i have to come there with my gradpa once a mont. really i think that i am a very like guy, having the chance to ever known that game, more even more so since I love fighting games in general. sorry my english, I'm here practicing it precisely. nice video, GG (Y)
Im gonna massively disagree with you, yeah this game is wack as fuk and completely unpolished, graphics are weird af and no real scenery implemented with the platforms. But it was completely new, specifically the swinging mechanic. It's the one one on n64 that had a decent swing and throw system. Which made it really fun. It's actually one of my favourites alongside HMC just under OAC and SM64
haha funny video, i loved this game on the N64 back in day and was happy to get it on N64 online recently (although rumble pak needed to enjoy it). But yeah its hard to disagree except more speed more speed yo, such a whacky fun 4 player split screen game back in the day
I have people in my family who are students of the Bible. Like, actual, in depth, no nonsense, we-don't-do-the-happy-clappy-thing, let's-get-down-to-the-facts, can-we-prove-or-disprove-this-stuff types. And they assure me that there were no discos in the posited time of Noah. And that makes me feel sad.
Huh. Just discovered your videos. I saw Baby Pac-Man in some videos. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that there's a backstory. Anyway, I'm a fan and I appreciate all the effort you put into this stuff.
I remember that... software. I'm calling it like that because it wasn't a game, it was quite an experience. Actually you were expecting to find a game by putting a disc in your PS1 back in the days. I remember chillin' to the vibes of that thing. I remember also contacting a local radio back then, talking about this software and the PS1 and they even invited me on the air asking about bringing the PS1 to do something at the radio, but eventually I never made it...
This thing was the TIT'S in the early 80's! I remember playing those Mattel "red dot" LED handheld games and this is leaps and bounds better than those things.
The only other time I saw a copy of this game was at my cousin's house. He loved this game and I started to love it as well. Any time I went over there, we played this more times than not. Since then I have only heard it mentioned once or twice in passing.
I doubt anyone yelled at you for being in catsuit, LOL Anyway, I honestly watch your review for entertainment and information, so never think you boring us well at least me with all that fun knowledge. That recreation was like an HD version, would have been great to explode and follow your head as it bounces tho.
Octy has quite the assortment of trinkets. Pusheen, MLP stuff both old and new, a copy of friggin Pokemon Black.. a Cacodemon, Count Duckula, it's fascinating :)
