Game Sack

Joe Redifer · 06/21/2012, 05:53 AM

Damn you're almost starting to remind me of Helgeson, but he pulls it off better and doesn't sound butthurt doing it.

I respond very well to constructive criticism. I get it all the time. But yours basically boils down to an angry "u don't no how 2 pronounse granzort u suk u call urslef a mod lol u should no better lol u suk". So yeah, don't watch the show because a viewer like you is not someone I care about. I honestly do not care what you, Arkhan, personally think.

PS - I don't know how much of the show you've seen but we've made fun of our delivery A LOT during several different episodes. We keep getting subscribers. I get people volunteering to send me stuff for the show so I must be doing something right. Sorry if that flares up your hemorrhoids.

I'll stop feeding the troll now.

Arkhan Asylum · 06/21/2012, 08:09 AM

Remind me not to give JoeRedifer free games anymore.

What I said on AtariAge wasn't even angry. I even separated the nitpicking. Hell, what I said *HERE* was pretty tame too. It was just *my* opinion of your show. There aren't even any "Fucks" in it. I think you're letting your bias towards me cause you to misinterpret anything I say to you as an attempt to piss you off.

Quote from: Me on AtariAgeffs, who owns a Jaguar and doesn't own Doom for it?!

and, who doesn't own Battle Ace with a Super Grafx?! FFS! Par for the course, I guess.

Battle Ace isn't great, but it doesn't suck. It's snappy, has nice visuals, and sweet music. It's worth checking out, especially since you already dropped enough to get a SGX in the first place. Do yourself a favor and buy it. I got a copy for like 5 bucks.

The Jaguar is worth it for Defender and Tempest alone. There are enough other games that make it worth owning, much like the Super Grafx.

Try the Jaguar with a pro controller. It's way better.

I found the Flashback portion to be a waste of potential in the video. "Duh duh, it doesn't look any better than the 16-bit ones". It's a port. Not a remake. What'd you want them to do, redo all of the graphics?

Nitpicking:

You mispronounced Madou / Mado O (you can put the lines over the Os.). I expected better. Also, you mispronounced Tramiel. Get with it!

Just a question now, are you guys ever going to do videos where it doesn't sound like you're reading off of cue cards..? Everything sounds fake and forced. Like those videos Gamestop puts out. The video is great, except for the commentary. The flashback part sounded so goony it reminded me of Billy Madison when he talks about Donkey Kong with the little kids.

"I disagree! While Flashback is great, I think Blackthorne is a much better game", or something.

Tempest haters.

You, or Dave (I'm not sure who originally replied), felt the need to cry about it and say I am trolling, because I posted it on two forums. With different audiences. This is what you get for being a dipshit. Now you get the angry (if its even angry? I think it's more like "Wow, Joe Redifer is a dumbass") stuff.

That's cool you don't care what I think. At least I can pronounce Tramiel.

That seems to be your modus operandi: Say/do clueless or stupid shit, get mad when people point it out and laugh at you, tell those people you ain't give no fucks cause you're a GAME SACKER.

If you think my original post is angry or whatever, I fall back to my original statement that you are a pussy.

Anyway, that's cool you get subscribers. I was just offering my opinion. You don't have to listen. You'd be wise to at least take away from this whole trainwreck that you now learned how to pronounce a word properly for future reference.

I watch your videos without watching them. So, headphones + do other shit while you two ramble. So, I don't catch everything on the first pass, and sometimes don't enjoy the video enough to watch again.

Plus, I figured you at least owned a SGX.

Joe, I demand credit for your new avatar, you picture stealing shmuck.

Actually, I don't know who it goes to.

I have no idea who made it. Someone did it in the shoutbox.

I enjoy the show guys - the production is fantastic. You had me at "Jet Set Radio Bitches...in your face"

Yep looks like Joe's slackin' again. Here is the new episode of GameSack.

Game Sack - Western-Developed Games

I really need to track down that Lomax game for the PS1!

Having a soundtrack that is a fave of mine, Marble Madness was a always a headache for me to play on the compilations. Looks like I need to track down a copy of the NES version.

ANd....

I am still laughing at the Dave White game!

roflmao · 07/01/2012, 11:11 PM

That Dave White game was hilarious.

How about of tracking down the PCE prototype for real obeyance?

Joe Redifer · 07/01/2012, 11:36 PM

Shit yeah! And then giving me the ROM and I'll get a Turbob Everdrive and have a Marble Madness awesome-a-thon. Just got the ROM for the Japanese Tengen Marble Madness for the Mega Drive. Gonna play it in a few.

I completely and totally forgot about the prototype. With it being originally a western developed game would you think the proto was actually meant for the TurboGrafx?

Tatsujin · 07/02/2012, 01:17 AM

very much possible.

Samurai Ghost · 07/02/2012, 01:47 AM

Awesome episode as usual!! Since I moved back to the US I've been buying a lot of the western developed games I dont have or werent released in Japan. Saved me a few bucks helping me avoid buying a few stinkers and inspired me to pick up a few more. So we're even I guess.

And I need a copy of Dave White Forever!! Releasing a Genesis version?

Mathius · 07/02/2012, 10:01 AM

Quote from: Samurai Ghost on 07/02/2012, 01:47 AMAnd I need a copy of Dave White Forever!! Releasing a Genesis version?

I am sure they will. The SNES version will have to have the violence toned down.

Can you find the blood code in the Genesis version?

DrBread · 07/02/2012, 11:09 AM

I started watching this series about last week now I'm hooked. It's so great!

Not only that but when you start each stage it will zoom in just like Super Mario World zooms in at the beginning of each stage. ZOOOOOOOOM! At least the magazines of the day called that effect zooming.

Haha!

How about an Actraiser-like rotational zoom starting from high above the earth, then spiraling down into a pixelated Dave head? This, of course, would be accompanied by emotionally epic chip music.

JoshTurboTrollX · 07/03/2012, 10:06 AM

Great episode, I enjoyed the parts about Earthworm Jim. I actually prefer the SNES/Gens versions over the Saturn one. Mainly looking at the bouncing puppy stage and the graphics. The SNES version has amazing scaling effects that they totally removed from the Saturn version. What gives?

Another great episode.

Joe Redifer · 07/03/2012, 07:49 PM

The Saturn version wasn't developed by Shiny. As I was looking at the side-by-side I started to like the Genesis and SNES versions better myself.

Joe Redifer · 07/10/2012, 06:33 AM

Outtakes and Deleted Scenes Volume 1

We mess up a lot. Hilarity ensues.

Ji-L87 · 07/10/2012, 06:46 AM

Nice shots of the LaserActive at the end

Edit:
You said that the Sega module could sound distorted when taxed sometimes but, I'm just wondering, how does the Sega module compare to the infamous Mega drive/Genesis II in general sound-wise? Just curious.
And did you notice anything of the sort with the NEC module?

Joe Redifer · 07/11/2012, 06:31 PM

The sound generally seems pretty good unless you have it near a CRT. At least I can only assume that was the issue. Otherwise I didn't notice anything really objectionable in the sound. It might be like a good Genesis 2 that's prone to RF interference. The PC Engine PAC sounds fine from what I can tell as well. Both output better composite video than the composite on the regular systems, but it's still composite.

Ji-L87 · 07/12/2012, 02:22 AM

Alright, thanks for clearing that up : D

DragonmasterDan · 07/12/2012, 11:00 AM

Quote from: Ji-L87 on 07/12/2012, 02:22 AMAlright, thanks for clearing that up : D

I've noticed with the Sega PAC there is a difference in color separation. Playing Aladdin on the LA compared to any of the Genesis configurations I have causes Aladdin to look quite a bit different.

VenomMacbeth · 07/15/2012, 03:34 AM

I know you guys get a slew of suggestions & whatnot, but I thought of something I'd like to see.

You should do an episode on mech games. Who doesn't love giant robots blowing up shit? I know you've already covered MUSHA, but you could do Metal Warriors, Cybernator/Assault Suits Valken, the Virtual-On games, Omega Boost...I can't think of any other notable ones at the moment but I'm sure there are more.

Good episode i've all ready list a few games that i wished had a console port.

By the way ever hear of demon front !? Think of it as i.g.s take on metal slug.

VenomMacbeth · 07/18/2012, 01:25 AM

If you guys were ever willing to do an episode on shooters, SMS/GG vs NES style, I'd be willing to loan you some games (if you don't already have them, of course.) Games like Recca, Crisis Force, Gradius II, and Tetrastar on the FC. I also have Sagaia on the SMS, if you don't already have it, and an SMS repro of GG Aleste II.

Joe Redifer · 07/18/2012, 04:45 AM

Awesome, we'll keep that in mind. It's a subject I'd definitely like to do.

This seems to be a common issue amongst Sega PAC users. I have no idea why, but it does seem to be environmental. Somehow distortion is picked up. Every sega PAC I've used (dozens!) has had the same issue. It doesnt matter if you've replaced the caps in them or not, the problem is still there. I'll notice the issue when I run a laseractive in one room but it goes away if i move the unit to another room.

SuperDeadite · 07/21/2012, 12:26 PM

Probably just interference. There is pretty much zero shielding in them besides the PAC case itself. And with so much jammed into that tiny PAC, really could have used a shielding plate between the boards imo.

I found it hilarious as well.Still it's a shame that fmv was wasted on the sega-cd.If it had more games like sonic-cd,lunar tss&eb,popful mail etc it could have had a better run.
