Have to tell you i love your take on the surf games.. i was the assistant producer on Transworld. I had a great time working on it. Glad you enjoyed it.
@@Blakdragon42My dad produced surf films and I remember back in 2002 or around there are one of the competitions and there was a tent showcasing Transworld surf on the og Xbox and was such a sick experience
I would love to see an open world surf game where your hubs moved from piers to a boat and you wandered the ocean hunting for waves. The pirate concept sounded fun!
Can't get enough of these videos, I've seen every video you've made! Do you have a release schedule or do you just release videos when they're ready? ☺️
Fun fact; Surfing H3O's controls are Like That™ because it was sold alongside an actual mini surfboard that you were expected to strap horizontally to both controller sticks, so moving it up or down ""felt"" like turning the back of the board to steer. Even with the gimmick controller it still feels weird, but it intuitively makes much more sense than without it.
I only played Kellly Slater and Transworld Surf. They were both pretty good but I liked Transworld Surf a lot more. I liked the more open levels and the multiple waves than being stuck on one wave.
I'm surprised at least two of the games look like fun, with how niche of a genre surfing video games are I would have expect them all to play about the same!
5:00 into the video, why is it Timesplitters Character noises can suit anything? That "ouhhh" has a beachy sound, I love it. 10/10 Honestly man, loving the videos you are making, makes me want to try some new ps1 and ps2 titles and inspired me to actually 100% complete Timesplitters 2 and unlock all the characters properly for the first time. STILL arcade league makes me want to shit in my hands than clap constantly.. < Sad that really hey hahahahahaha
Its the best sound pack in the world hahah. Thankyou man, that’s one the main goals of the channel. Even I’m playing some of these for the first time and it feels like fun field research haha. Nice Threads on TS2 is hell on earth but there is a speed run method that changes everything, you’ll know when you see it 😂🤙
@@EvanHelblingYT Well considering your going back too the roots where games were unique man it's got me keen on a few I've never seen before to give a go to add too the ps2 collection as I started collecting ps2 games again since 2019 so I appreciate near on all your videos your bringing out, hoping for you your channel blows up more man. Oh hell yeah I'm keen too see that for sure!!
@@EvanHelblingYT Yeah lol 😂 man I listened to the song like 10 times already, it's so good. Do you still make music besides the occassional songs in your videos here?
Oh my lord in my childhood I remember we had ONE game for the PlayStation, I played the SHIT out of that game and could not remember the name for years, but you’ve just unlocked the memory for me omg thank you 😭🥲🥲😭 3:23
They just need to make a surfing game with a REALLY in depth career mode. Different tours, different 'leagues,' etc. It could be pretty cool. I could even see a game like Rider's Republic adding a surfing mode. That'd be dope, but probably not likely. I'd like to see a good surfing game be made. Currently there's a few out there, but they aren't good. Barton Lynch Pro Surfing looks worse than the Kelly Slater game. Virtual surfing looks better, but is still pretty lackluster and bare bones.
A surf game in this day in age with the water graphics are,riding a full on wave and tunnel would be awesome especially if it was story based and multiplayer having 6 dudes shredding a wave would be cool 😂👌🏼
As someone who actually surfs and is craving a realistic feel, almost all of these are terrible. That said, the ones you rated the lowest are by far the best for scratching the itch: championship and sunny Garcia.
@@EvanHelblingYT welcome bro!! Sure do miss the tutorials tho G, your the reason I know how to use logic and mix and master my own vocals plus I bought a bunch of your presets. Doing any, anytime soon?
Does anybody ever wish video essays were more serious. I get why its structured so, but i think the majority of people would be held if you just staded facts
@@EvanHelblingYT Thats all we ever have is the next time. its not shit because you care enough to do it. But dude thank you for listening to your watchers, thats where a lot of mistakes tend to stem from.
