+ZomifiedHam That's even deeper than the actual barrel, and is just filled with an infinite recursion of these secret compartments. Then you realize, YOU WERE IN THE WOOLIE HOLE THE WHOLE TIME
Somewhere in China, a group of heroes live. Perhaps they have moved on, perhaps they no longer see one another, but they all lived at one time, for the same thing. They lived to transcend the expectations of what was possible. they strove to grow beyond their limitations. together, they were a force for good. a force that will never die. dong.dong. never. die.
Woolie at start of video: "Nah I've never played this game, this is the first time I've touched it." Woolie at 18 minutes in: "So earlier when I was playing this game..."
Woolie is the reincarnated form of the ancient pie-stealing, lying dragon known only as Woo Lie, the prophecies foretold his return but I didn't think I'd come like this...
You can't have a lets play channel without your token compulsive liar. I mean c'mon we're only going to be watched by thousands of people. Whose going to fact check? *[Insert the sound of a thousand keyboards, doing a thousand internet searches, doing a thousand paragraph long rebuttals]*
From what I've looked up about this game, the main character's name is Dong Dong, and the shirtless, red haired character that Woolie used is his super powered evil side called Violent Dong Dong.
This is it. This is the one. This video is the one I will always come back to. It perfectly embodies the hype, the jank, and the absolute fuckery that SBFP was, and makes me feel at home when home has never been farther away.
I came back here to write just this. Glad ya beat me to it. This is my favorite video by them. It's funny and pure entertainment the whole way through, Such a underated lets play channel when they were still active
I'm glad I'm not the only one, it also encapsulates that weird like oddly personal references nobody else would care about. Nobody I ever meet in real life or on line regardless of where, knows or gives a shit about kof, berserk, Darkstalkers, eternal darkness or Hokuto no Ken and these shitlords not only won't shut up about it but manage to find chinajank that incorporated it. I'll never forget marking out at Matt saying "Mantorak" in the downpour playthrough, I'll never forget Liam's first appearance as "the OP one" before he got nerfed by the 3ds destroying his hands and I will Always look back through the archive for things like "That Dog will never ride a horse again!" And "I gotta eat the kids to save the children!"
According to the info I could find on this...this..."crossover"...this was done by a group of students of Beijing University, as a proof of concept, and they actually developed this entire thing (INCLUDING *all* animations) in, like, *two months* or so...this is the TRUE "power of China"? GODS of crunching! This is basically what "College Saga" would've looked like if it was an actual game instead of a short student-made movie, lol.
@@lancergt1000 Polishing/bug fixing, highly likely, and etc. The content was done in ~2 months, but after that QA began, which lasted for much longer before the game gone gold. This is nothing new or surprising in the game developing scene, even for big companies with large funding. For example, CDPR stated that CyberPunk 2077's content was done sometime by the end of 2018, yet they decided to push release date further several times due to additional polishing needed. Might as well mention Yanderedev, too.
@@Kawayolnyo even after those 3 years the game still has a lot of quality of life stuff missing, like how they couldnt figure out a way to stop people from being thrown while in blockstun and how theres no 2P colors
@@lancergt1000 Quite frankly and honestly, I don't think there was any "quality of life" intended to be there to begin with. It's literally a student project after all, for god's sake. It's a 100% self-aware product. They didn't promise anyone anything and clearly every single last yuan was accounted for during the development. You're overthinking this way too much/too hard, I believe. And as far as "polishing already-completed content for 3 straight years"...I wouldn't be surprised even one last bit if someday more info on this project comes out somewhere/from someone and we may find out that the release date was deliberately moved to match this group's graduation from the university (so it might've been their "alumni prom" kind of a thing, their "goodbye & thank you" to their teachers).
Ironically, Dong Dong (the character) does in fact become Violent Dong Dong. I'm not even joking. The main character's name is Dong Dong, and the idiot with the M.Bison cape, his name is Terminator, just like in the intro.
All the team photos at the end makes Dong Dong the most wholesome shit ever, it's genuinely adorable to see the dudes who gave us this masterpiece trying their heart out.
The Streets of Rage connection is so bizarre. So, in the early 2010s, independently of each other, two groups of young developers, one in France and one in China wanted to make Streets of Rage 4, and as a proof of concept made a game which uses goofy photos turned into in-game sprites: Streets of Fury, and Dong Dong Never Die respectively. As it happens the French developers are the ones who ended up making Streets of Rage 4. This game is like looking into an alternate timeline.
God, all these years later. I remember fucking coming home from Toys R Us, long ass shift, eating my Wendy's while watching this, and I couldn't handle ANY OF IT. Still can't.
I feel like this game qualifies as the "false bottom" of the barrel. Now that you have broken through this false bottom, i hope it's a never ending free fall through all the barrels, never finding the bottom.
@@Marzimus sorry but they will never come back woolie has pretty much said a reunion will never happen. There should be a clip on RU-vid with him talking about it on stream.
@@frogsby996 the guy is just having fun,but this is the thing about the whole ideal the break up was still recent and it wasnt pretty so of course he would say that. It's just one of those only time can heal those wounds. Even if they do become friends again. I think this was a situation of wanting to go their separate ways for the sake of creative sake
>First match of the night for Woolie "Lets see who to pick" >Sees full stats on character compared to the rest "THAT'S THE ONE!" If you see this Woolie I'm joking and I love you. Just thought it was funny how people complain you always pick the broken ass characters, and you managed to find the most broken ass character right off the bat unknowingly.
@@pkbltz5272 tough to say a supermodel could be more attractive than "regular girl but is a 9+" which I think pretty nearly describes both girls onscreen at that moment. Its more appealing that way, for some reason supermodels tend to look weird and unattractive to me
This is one of the greatest LPs of all time. I come back every year to relive it. Just like Dong Dong, as long as we believe, Super Best Friends will never die
They missed a golden opportunity to title the video "Persona 4: Arena Ultimax" and throughout the entire video act as though that's the game they're playing.
That be good for april fools but kinda annoying after all the "promises" when they can just play it and get it over with. Now it kinda seems insulting to the fans.
+no1important Once they realized the game was legit, they should have done a 'reset' playing a sped up version of the Fisticuffs opening to recognize this.
One year. One year since they've begun the voyage that is Dong Dong. During that year, we've watched them play game after game, stream after stream. Frustratingly difficult games, agonizingly slow games, games that made us shit our pants (perhaps more than once). Among these are the diamonds in the rough and the steaming piles of crap. And we know it is their job, nay, their duty to provide entertainment for the masses, so their audience may know the difference between the two. However, in all our years watching TBF as they continue their quest for game paradise, we know in our heart of hearts it will always come back to this. Because we know Dong Dong never changes. Dong Dong never dies.
+KamelGuru The lore for this game is literally the plot of Terminator 2. No, really, it is...I mean, the intro is a straight rip of the Terminator 2 narration. To further explain: Asian John Connor aka "Dong Dong" is the guy in the black shirt with the white dress-shirt over it. Super Saiyan John Connor, or more accurately translates as "Violent/Furious Dong Dong" is the shirtless pale guy with the red hair and jeans. T-800 (the ally terminator) is the guy in the greyish shirt who summons his friends like missiles, and T-1000 (the final boss) is the guy in the greenish jumpsuit with the machine gun and baton. The ending boss fight is something like: T-1000 wants to blow up the world by riding a shuttle into space and then crashing it, or...something? And you face T-1000, and defeat him. In a post-credits sequence, you fight the people you fought in story mode consecutively; they come in a team of two, then four, then six or so? including the final boss, and you carry your health bar between rounds. Note that story mode doesn't cover everybody and is random who you get; for example they didn't get to fight Autobots-T-shirt guy or construction worker in the story mode.
Don't mind me. Just coming back to relive some old fond memories. I find it cathartic to allow myself to look back, and even if the best friends are no more being able to see it all gives me hope.
Back when Matt actually enjoyed playing video games instead of taking Unlimited Vacation Works. Maybe he just needs to get back to being super-hammered during recordings. I'd take "blowing out the microphone" Matt over "clearly doesn't want to be here anymore" Matt any day.
I was going to add that it is now mid 2018 and it's still the hypest, but that last guys comment really chuffed me. "I'd rather Matt sacrifice his health and mental well-being for my personal entertainment" like fuck off

- Saw like 10 minutes of this video. - Decided I have to play the game myself and not get spoiled on anything any further. - Download game. - Curse because it doesn't work at all on Win 8. - Boot up my older laptop with Win Vista on it. - Works fine there. - lol chinese games - End up playing half the night THANK YOU BEST FRIENDS FOR THIS GIFT.
This was the video that got me on the zaibstsu train. You were the only scrublords willing to play this poverty masterpiece of a garbage heap. I will miss this channel.
"My friends, though I have passed on do not think that I have died. I will always be with you, in your darkest and brightest hours. You must carry on, you must continue the fight against the Machines. But, should your spirit wane, should your heart be bereft of courage, should your will and Dong be drained in equal measure, just remember this: As long as you fight not for glory or honor, but to protect the weak, the helpless and the innocent from those who would prey upon them. So long as the ones you love are their by your side when you need them. So long as you stay true to your heart, your spirit, your mind and your Dong. You will Never Die." - Dong Conner's Final Speech, Dong Dong Never Die
I keep coming back to this video because of how hype this game is. A serious amount of love obviously went into making it and it's so goofy, yet so fucking entertaining. We need more things like this in the world. Also it's what inspired my username. May Dong Dong live on.
I know I'm 5 years late, but the "truth: SONY PSP???" moment is one of the funniest things I've ever experienced. It's 4a and I am in tears in laughter.
For those of you still haunting this channel years later, Streets of Rage 4 was released Apr 30th 2020, and appears to have that chick from the last splash screen. I can't seem to confirm whether or not anyone from the Dong Dong production was involved as finding definitive information on the team who made Dong Dong is rather difficult. But the graphics are modern hand drawn smooth lines with no pixels, so probably not, who knows. Got me hype though.
This still is one of the best videos from this channel and from the whole internet. I make a pilgrimage on my knees to this video every year to pay my respects.
After several years (even though my last comment was five months ago...) and watching yesterday's Woolie Vs LP of it with Reggie, I had to come back to where all began. Back to the basics, and it is still hype, and it still hurts.
