Shoeless posted:Sounds like Duel Masters. Original is generic, the dub has people having fun with it. If we're discussing anime dubs that go wild, you cannot go wrong with Ghost Stories. When given the localization rights they were told "Do whatever" and my god they did. mandatory lesbian posted:the samurai pizza cats of the 2000's...(i loved duel masters) Can someone confirm if Duel Masters was the one where a villain was waiting for the cable man to come over? And when he was going to leave before the guy arrived his subordinates told him the cable guy will just leave a note and be on his way if the villain wasn't there to answer the door, to which the villain replies "The cable man is... evil..."? I couldn't of imagined this series of events, I swore I saw it once at 5 in the morning and its somehow managed to etch into my mind and I cannot find any confirmation of it online.

Yeah, I've seen some clips of Ghost Stories. Oh boy. Ooooh boy. And yes, that scene you're talking about is from Duel Masters. They had fun with that dub. Pity they changed the voice actors every season. That being said we should probably go back to talking about LPs. We've gotten a tad off-topic.

I enjoyed the first three series of Beyblade before it became super generic. A buddy of mine plans to show those first three series as part of weekly stream so I'll be able to rewatch them. Of those series, I liked V-Force the most because it was centered around the BitBeasts which were arguably the best part of the franchise for me personally. I also liked that Ray and his home team break the anime cat people stereotype, it's nice when that happens since it honestly doesn't happen enough.

 So...I kind of forgot about this thread and kept doing videos, but I feel like I should at least get the rest of videos in here before finishing the LP in case there were some people following exclusively from the thread, however in order to avoid just dumping a large number of links in a single post I'll space them out over the next week or so.

Shoeless posted:Yeah, and tops sound dumb until all sorts of glowing monsters appear from them and fight and stuff! #TopsAreCoolCardsJustDrool ...you sure we're not still talking about Yu-Gi-Oh?  The Alan Wake update is pretty normal (well, you know, besides the surreal meta dreamscape setting), but for Dragon's Dogma, we had a problem. On the 4th stream of the game, I forgot to turn in Lost & Found (the quest we did last time, going to the woods to rescue Quina)-- I did all that stuff, but you have to go talk to her dad for it to count, and I got the quest failed after doing the next one; and since the game auto-checkpoints after story quests I couldn't go back. So I had to replay the game and do some of the same content over again. For the LP, I just cut out that stream entirely and left in my references and explanations to it in the next couple episodes. Let me know if you want to see a bonus video with some of the highlights that were cut (or the whole thing, for the handful of crazy people really into this series  ), otherwise I'll just move on.In the actual stream I talked over most of the NPCs since we had the normal dialogue last time, so I dropped the volume on my track really low this time around so you can hear them better but still hear me. Best I could think of to do.  Alan Wake - DLC 1: The Signal Part 2/3This section goes full-bore with the "illuminate words to cause things to happen" gimmick, including a sort of verbal minefield (and for once, we can say that without talking about politics or something). It's a continuation of the focus on gameplay and hopefully that makes it interesting to watch (and for what it's worth, Ben handles it decently up until the boss next time, heh).  Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen Part 10 - Undead & Just DeadAs explained, I had to redo the game up to this point, so while I tried to explain what happened last time and keep things from being too jarring, I do apologize about that (well, Capcom should be the ones apologizing for their terrible quest structure  ). We get some quests in Gran Soren, then it's into the Everfall to clean out the Pawn Legion's basement, and the goons dwelling within....

Wayne posted:...you sure we're not still talking about Yu-Gi-Oh? Yeah. From what I remember, Beyblade waits a bit to reveal that part of the formula, while Yu Gi Oh gives you it within the first episode. So you have to keep with the show for a little before the whole deal with spirits inside the tops that make them battle better comes up.

 Let's Play SpongeBob: Truth or Square Truth or Square is a 3D platformer developed by the genre (and license) veterans at Heavy Iron Studios. With both Battle for Bikini Bottom and The Movie Game under their belt, the third SpongeBob title is sure to be splendid, right? Well, it's not bad. Playing almost exactly like a dictionary sample of "linear 3D platformer", Truth or Square is exceedingly average, and averagely fun. This Let's Play hopes to answer such questions as, "Just how unoffensive can you possibly make a game?", "Is there anything surprising here or is this like, the whole thing?", and "Has anyone ever really gotten these hidden collectibles?" On the less neutral side of things, the game actually does an excellent job of celebrating the history of SpongeBob, which is what the TV special of the same name was supposed to be for. The game does it better by a mile, so if you actually like early SpongeBob then that probably makes this a lot more worthwhile. (No, we're not getting the hidden collectibles either. It's just concept art, man.) Videos        We saved Bikini Bottom! GamesAreSupernice fucked around with this message at 21:41 on Nov 23, 2016 |

I don't know about the Spongebob movie game but Battle for Bikini Bottom is loving great. Probably my favorite collect-a-thon platformer though a large part of that is Spongebob nostalgia.

While I'm sure nostalgia plays a factor, Battle for Bikini Bottom and The Movie Game actually are that good. Battle for Bikini Bottom tried to bring new mechanics and design to a flooded genre, and more importantly created a memorable experience. Scaler, Kao The Kangaroo, and several other 3d platformers of that generation fell on their face because of their lack of memorable obstacles and design. The Movie Game on the other hand was fantastic mostly because Heavy Iron looked at Battle for Bikini Bottom and said, "We have to make it crazier, and I don't care how, but no matter what we have to avoid repeating ourselves." This resulted in a ton of vastly different poo poo being hurled at a wall, and miraculously every bit of it stuck. It also made for the hardest 3D SpongeBob title.

It's not like good licensed games don't exist, lots of people have singular examples. Mine would be The Warriors, which came out about 25 years after the movie did.

dscruffy1 posted:It's not like good licensed games don't exist, lots of people have singular examples. Mine would be The Warriors, which came out about 25 years after the movie did. Honestly, I'd say a significant portion of licensed games are at least decent, with some being really great. A large part of it is when it comes out in relation to the main property of the license. Like a movie tie-in game that comes out when the movie's still in theaters, those tend to suck cause the rights owners will choose whoever can get it out the quickest and the cheapest. But stuff that comes out after or for more long-running stuff can be handed off to competent developers.
