Game Sack

[technozombie]

Yes I am actually building Volume 2 to the hard drive for final testing as I type this. All goes well it can be sent off to the factory for replication. It's really packed full this time. Last one had like 3GB free space. This one has maybe 49 MB free space.

Yeah I put the videos on Amazon when they started offering their program. They pay you. I got my first payment a few days ago. $1.11. Looking at mansions tomorrow.

I searched for some Gamesack videos on my Amazon Firestick, but it showed no results.

Only two I saw:

I'm going to give those a watch. If Joe gets that mansion maybe he'll let us come over and be in an episode of Playing With (ball)Sacks.

Yeah those are the only two up there. Subtitles are a requirement and I don't like doing subtitles as they're a pain. I don't mind if others do them though.

Joe, I found this while browsing Amazon.de:

That's weird. Really weird. You click on it and it changes to Joe Reiter. I attribute it to Amazon messing up somehow and confusing it with the Game Sack blu-ray.

I think we should all watch that movie, nonetheless, in honor of Game Sack.

Virtua Racing
And
Virtual Hydlide

were great.

I have to disagree with Athena...while the game is flawed/broken, it really does have a unique personality. The graphics/sprites/level design all scream FANTASTIC, only to be utterly sabotaged by the horrible controls and collision detection. Since this episode is *about* judging a book by its cover, Athena has decent aesthetics (I can think of a billion FC/NES games with far worse aesthetics).

BUT THAT's OK.

I would have defended the character designs in Super Pitfall NES, too. If I had too.

Then there is Chubby Cherub.

I'm sure I'll get rotten tomatoes thrown at me, but I'm surprised Keith Courage wasn't mentioned or the PC Engine version of Lode Runner - The Lost Labyrinth.

When I think of underwhelming games Altered Beast for PCE CD springs to mind instantly.

Heh, Athena is pretty terrible. I can feel the sloooooth with Bebe's Kids. Fun video.

Lol the Virtual Hydlide bit. XD

I could see Golden Axe, but Altered Beast CD is much more whelming than the Genesis version.

Coming right off Final Fantasy 6 and playing Chrono Trigger as a kid I was underwhelmed. That's probably not a popular opinion though. Tecmo: Secret of the Stars is a graphically underwhelming game considering it came out the same year as Chrono Trigger.

Instant cred for Napple Tale being included (presumably since I can see it on the image before I start the video, which I am just now watching). Loved that game.

Edit: Yes. Second game mentioned. I will say for anyone looking to get a retail copy of Napple Tale just be patient. The bins are high but if you wait for an auction, you can probably get it for $30 or less (iirc I paid $12 but had to replace the case). And yeah like he says, brush up on your Japanese or use a guide.

Joe were you sleeping during the Yoshi section?
