I had a similar holy shit voice actor moment when watching “Big Comfy Couch” decades ago. Girl as “Lunette” voiced Claire in a little classic Playstation game called Resident Evil. Your Welcome.
The original creator of Larry compared the 3D games to having your son kidnapped and receiving a ransom video: "On one hand, you're glad he's still alive, but on the other, oh my God, look what they've done to him!"
@@kiefferindisguise5196 Good point you make. Why DOES he have an A on his head? He doesn't really represent Mexico or Canada (and other smaller countries or territories) or any of the South American countries, which are all technically American so shouldn't he have a U up there for USA? Or is that why USAgent exists?
@@vetreas366 It’s kind of like how people from outside of the US call us Americans, and not United Statesers. We kind of took the name despite it applying to two whole continents.
"those weird scenarios you play in your head before you go to bed at night where I pretend to stop a school shooting at my high school reunion" I'm glad that I'm not the only one who's done this lol
2:44 The funny thing is the quotations aren't necessary, the same Dick Marcinko who you play as in the game and wrote the script is literally the man who founded SEAL Team 6. According to all the sources I could find (Wikipedia, the history website, the Navy Seals official website) he's directly named as the guy the Navy entrusted into developing a full time counter-terrorist unit which he named Team 6 (his reasoning being it would confuse the enemy as at the time it was only the third SEAL team.) He commanded it for 3 years, longer than the Navy's typical two year command. Yeah, that highly regarded individual is the actual guy writing voicelines about how the enemy can "suck my hairy balls" anytime they player gets a kill. The game that's based on his book of equal absurdity.
All true. Very very weird, and true. Wish I’d put a bit more of that info in the video, contextualizes the whole experience better. Plus it’s just interesting history. Just for clarity on my part, I put the quotations around ‘real life’ there more so in reference to the way Marcinko is portrayed in the game; I doubt the real Dick went around singlehandedly blowing up Russian missile bases lol
Apparently Rebellion and Bethesda only greenlit this project to try and make Demo Dick their own version of Tom Clancy (aka a well-known military-tied book author turned video game visionary)
Hey look on the bright side: If Rogue Warrior wouldn't have been made, the world wouldn't have been blessed by that amazing credits song of Mickey Rourke rapping.
honestly he is so vocal about it and he goes into too much detail where it just gets disgusting and unsexy :( i think that fucks up any homoerotic potential this game has
I imagine mickey rourke being at the studio and reading what the writers actually wrote and then he just started to insult them and they just went with it.
Man I outright smiled when you listed Bionic Commando (2009) as a great 360 game. That game is one of my favorites and super underrated because all people think of is "haha wife arm" and not the extremely fun gameplay and stellar swinging mechanics.
I think Bionic Commando’s aight. Mostly wanted to use it as a mid-tier game to cushion the transition between the 360 classics I mentioned initially and the terrible ones I jumped to in Iron Man and Sonic ‘06, lol. BC has been on my mind lately though, I bought it again and started it over recently! It’s a fun time. The wife arm is a real solid gameplay gimmick.
Other than the dumb plot twist, Bionic Commando was a fun game. Shame it didn't get a sequel and Capcom has completely forgotten franchises like it, Dino Crisis, and Onimusha. Plus the dev went under too. Their Terminator Salvation game was bad.
@@PurposelessRabbitholes That's cool to hear! And yeah I do not deny that it is a mid-tier game, but I find it to be a really fun mid-tier game and I'm glad you're enjoying it.
@@PurposelessRabbitholes "...the terrible ones I jumped to in Iron Man..." That's throwing me for a serious loop, is the 360 version just randomly dog shit? I'm only familiar with the PS2 version, which was perfectly serviceable. Nothing stellar, but I'd hesitate to call it bottom of the barrel.
That's probably cause halfway through he started talking about the game's most interesting feature, which that someone who worked on it went on to something bigger after.
i love these little dives into off kilter low-mid tier video games. i think there must have been something about that console generation that inspired so many weird games. i'd love to see a video featuring one of my absolute favourites: the saboteur. one of the most 7/10 games i've ever played and i love it
Fun fact: The real Dick Marcinco is a real ex spec ops dude. He writes tons of books that are basically about how badass he is. Truth be told tho, he’s fucking crazy and spent time in military prison. Which makes the video game adaptation of his life accurate(not the missions but his general thought process probably). If I recall correctly he’s the one who wanted all of the one liners in the game.
Honestly for how boring the actual game is, the actual concept of Vampire Rain would make for pretty cool game. A stealth game that takes place in an open world city full of vampires feels prime for a great atmospheric horror game.
Good video, I'd be interested if you did a Hidden Gems of the 360 era. Lesser known games that you had a blast with, I nominate Binary Domain, I picked it up for the price of a Subway Sandwich and loved every moment of it. Just a shame by the time I got there the multiplayer was totally abandoned.
I’m gonna track down Binary Domain sometime soon. I recently got into the Yakuza series, and once I realized that same studio made BD, my interest was piqued. And yeah, I’ve been wanting to make a ‘Hidden 360 Gems’ video for years! A video for games I don’t plan on making _full_ videos for, basically lol. Stuff like The Saboteur, Asura’s Wrath, Dark Void, Overlord, maybe Binary Domain.
@@PurposelessRabbitholes highly recommend adding Chrome Hounds to that list, one of the best mech games I’ve ever played and completely forgotten about
Seeing Flashpoint Dragon Rising next to Cod makes me feel weird because Flashpoint made me feel like a soldier actually trying to both complete their mission AND survive instead of God with an AK.
Charlie, your videos radiate a unique energy With other you tubers it feels as if I’m there product With you,I feel as if I’m your friend Can’t wait for the next one
Larry’s voice actor in box office bust actually plays Ocelot in MGS3. I just looked that up after I got to that part in the video so I had my own Vampire Rain voice actor hunt here!
I don't even know how long I've been here but I just, JUST realized you're below a million. This entire time I thought that if anything, you were closing in to multiple. Man..
A Rogue Warrior game with a gameplay like Black or FEAR would be so fucking good Using the same voice lines Maybe putting a "based on real events" in the beggining and like, the final Boss is mecha Karl Marx and cyber Stalin
I love this goddamn video so much for some reason. It’s like somehow calming, funny, and entertaining as hell throughout without fail. Good job Man, Good job.
Okay, but seriously though? I need more of your deliciously delectable content. I need to feed my hungry eyes and ears with your creamy good- … you know what? I’m going to stop myself there. I like your videos 🧎.
Welcome back Charlie!!! It’s been to long!!!, I hope your doing well and hopefully you will put out more vids, I know life comes first but as a fan I can’t wait for the next video!!!!
How can someone talk to me about the most boring games he ever played and still make me enjoy every minute of listening to it? PR, you are an absolute genius!
The worst part about the one "successful" LSL joke is that it's not even talking about the game, it's talking about your TV. Even when they succeed they fail
It'd work great if it replaced the lines in Box Office Bust, though. Hearing a sexually frustrated and obviously in the closet hero swear at random communists who don't actually exist? While desperately trying to get laid and never seeing a single nipple? It's like a portrait of an incel seduced by Qanon.
I was watching a bad video games list video then I remember this game and then I remember your review of 3 bad games from Xbox, I was searching for this video for almost 20 minutes and finally found it, and man it doesn't disappointe 😂😂😂😂, 3:30 is the part I laugh so hard in the middle of night right now,, Thank you man for the great video 😂😂😂
'Terrible Games Marathon' This fits your channel name, but I did similar crap myself, so not mocking you. Thank you for taking the time to play this crap to entertain us.
I can't fucking believe that Codemasters was involved with leisure suit Larry. Holy shit Edit: what the fuck was Josh Keaton smoking when he signed up for a leisure suit Larry game
I played rogue warrior as a kid and it took me 11 years worth of games and other stuff to forget that this steaming pile of shit, thank you reminding this even existed I’m gonna gonna need therapy. I’m amazed that I didn’t become a serial killer
It’s wild to think that Team17 is responsible for Leisure Suit Larry while also being responsible for the incredible and critically acclaimed Hell Let Loose. Like polar opposite ends on the spectrum of quality.
