When it came to choosing the subject for the 100th episode of Game Over: The Early Years, I knew that I wanted it to be something epic. It also needed to be a landmark game that meant a lot to me at the time and offered something we hadn't seen before. With those requirements in mind, I knew that there was only one right answer -- Snatcher. Although Metal Gear may have predated this cyberpunk point and clicker by a few months, it's Snatcher that introduced the world to all the hallmarks you expect from a Hideo Kojima game. I'm talking about over-the-top characters, a convoluted story, technology run amok and one of the longest endings you'll ever see on a 16-bit console. Turn back if you don't want to know what happens next, because today we're going to finally spoil the story and ending for Snatcher on the Sega CD. This is Game Over: The Early Years!

My favorite Sega CD game. I grabbed this at Toys R us for $14.99 when they were trying to get rid of all of the Sega CD/32x stuff to make way for 32-bit stuff. Crazy the prices it gets now. When i first played this game the first thing i did was reverse Random's name because of how it sounded. Always thought this was the ultimate spurned love story. Also i remember calling the video phone number that was on the video board in the city shot and read that long message from the developer. One of the best hidden messages ever, long before kojima started doing the codec stuff. EDIT: Also remember they were going to use Nukes and Metal Gear exists in this world along with all those konami characters. So Solid Snake existed too. QOTD, probably Metal Gear Solid. Actually bought the japanese import of it and played through it before the american version and still regularly play through it.

Hey, every RU-vidr does something special for their 100th episode, so I don't blame you for having a long one here. However, guess I wasn't the only one who kept thinking of Metal Gear Solid during this. And in answer to the question, mainly because MGS is the one I'm most familiar with, may have to answer that by default. Anyways, thank you.

@DefunctGames 4 года назад

Oh yeah, Snatcher definitely lives in the Metal Gear Solid universe. Between references to Outer Heaven, Fox Hound and even the Mk. II showing up in Metal Gear Solid 4, it's hard not to think of Kojima's later works while playing through Snatcher.

Glad I still have my copy.

@DefunctGames 4 года назад

Me too. I can't believe how expensive it is these days.

@STABxWEST 2 года назад

This video is absolutely phenomenal. Thank you, wholeheartedly, for putting this together.

@DefunctGames 2 года назад

Thank you for your kind words, they really mean a lot. This was a longer episode that took quite a while to put together, so it feels good knowing that it was appreciated.

Great ep!!! Thanks for the upload! I always appreciate your ‘Game Over’s’

@douro20 6 месяцев назад

This game needs a sequel. Kojima actually wrote a radio drama based on Snatcher.

Great content!

@KiryuKazuma2047 2 года назад

Fun video, thanks for making. Love this game. It's Jamie Seed btw, not Jackie (18:10). :)

@DefunctGames 2 года назад

Good catch and a needed correction. With a story this big (and a video this long) I'm bound to make a couple mistakes.

@UNIRockLIVE 6 месяцев назад

This was a great video

@DefunctGames 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for the kind words. This one took a long time to put together, so I'm happy that people are still discovering it.

I ran into an Audio issue after the Factory investigation there's no audio. I hope I can Fix it.

@ericmikesell5252 2 года назад

I hope Kojima owns the rights to Snatcher, needs a remake

@Aerosplinter 11 месяцев назад

Yes! AND the remake should be 3D cel-shaded (like the Arcsys art style/Trigun Stampede), playable SDatcher, Act 4, among others! Also cameos from Netflix Castlevania and Nocturne, Silent Hill, etc.!

...Dude, that's kinda the story of Fallout 4

@user-fo8gk3fj9m 9 месяцев назад

what was that sneeze reference Metal Gear Sega CD tried to hide in the ending script?

@JRPG-Mickey 3 месяца назад

It was a reference to Napoleon, a character that helps Gillian throughout his time as a Junker. It’s essentially hinted that Napoleon is there saying good bye with the rest of the girls.

@rocknflip66 7 месяцев назад

while Snatcher was enjoyable, with that Blade Runner/Terminator esk feel, imo Policenauts was way better. love this track btw 55:47

@waylonwallace 2 месяца назад

if you’re wondering, it’s called Jamie’s Theme.

Is it weird I want Roanoke Gaming do a Lucifer Alpha viral breakdown?

With all the trans humanism Going around I’m glad to have this game to help with managing my urges to terminate our cybernetic overlords.

so its blade runner..........

@DefunctGames 2 месяца назад

Yeah. Blade Runner meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

@RealBearKiri Месяц назад

@@DefunctGames In the Saturn version, there's extra animation of Random (who's basically the bad guy from the 80's version of Dune) blasting Gillian's turbo-cycle door off with a lever action shotgun he's carrying with him on his motorcycle, so definitely some Terminator references along with all the other 80's/90's movie homage's thrown in too.
