Wild guess: is the next game "Chuck Rock" ? - "Chuck" is one of Charlie Brown's nicknames, by Patty IIRC - "Rock" is a reference to Alcatraz's prison, which was known as "the Rock"
During the era when licensed games were very much a mixed bag this one was one of the better ones. Really happy to see you guys tackle this one, as usual the skits were great and had me cracking up. So many great gaming channels out there that I look forward to every upload but this channel is definitely something special.
Considering both versions of this game were made by Acclaim, that is saying quite a bit. Right up there with Stargate and T2: The Arcade Game (the latter in collaboration with Midway).
Love the use of Bobcat. Considering Nintendo casting Chris Pratt as Mario I am convinced Bobcat Goldthwait will be cast as Link in the Legend of Zelda movie. Well excuse me, princess!
No entiendo cómo no tienen más subscriptos.Ya hace varios años que los veo y son geniales. El esfuerzo y la creatividad para cada video. Francamente merecen muchísimo más reconocimiento
Sometimes it just comes down to the handling of the chromiticery. First episode of the year and the bar is set pretty high. Another great episode guys!
been watching these guys for a long long time and they are still one of my favorites and nothing has changed besides their facial hair and a single substitution, from the intro to the presentation of the games all the way down to the video quality on their camera, Keep it up guys PS: I have to disagree when it comes to the sound this is one of the games where the techno beats and soundbites of the Genesis really outshines the SNES, it gives the game a much darker and hard hitting feel imo
While they raised some valid points on the presence / absence of some songs, I gotta agree that the techno-sound of the Sega felt like a much better fit for the songs on the soundtrack. Funny enough from what I can recall of True Lies it's not really a "grimey" movie so even if the songs sound better on Sega, the soundtrack doesn't really fit the tone of it either way.
For a moment I thought Pat was supposed to be dressed as James Bond on the thumbnail. But then again that's probably because I never watched the True Lies movie.
I was just thinking this morning, "I wish they would make a Console Wars for True Lies." Now I know all I need to do is make a mental request, and it will be done within the hour. Thanks guys.
Why is your subscription count so low?!! Stupid algorithm! Enjoying you guys for a couple years now, thank you for the great content. Most underrated channel on TH-cam, hands down!
Man, you guys always seem to have games resting in the cryogenic freezers, waiting to be reviewed in the future. This is why you guys are one of my fave channels of all time, soley for the consistency. Keep it up, guys!
Sound comparisons are the most subjective area to judge. The SNES obviously has the more advanced sound chip that can sample real instruments, but the creativity the developers had to use to make the synthetic sounds of the Genesis form songs is pretty amazing. Most of the time the SNES has much better audio, but the Genesis audio is more pleasing to my ear a good amount of times
Out of sheer curiosity I did a tally of every Console Wars episode, and here's the score for 85 out of the 96 episodes. Nintendo: 41 Sega: 41 Tie: 3 The only thing I have trouble discerning is the 11 where they try to judge which game was the worst. Does being the worst count as a win or a loss? Sega won that 5 times, and Nintendo won that 6. All we need is one more set-up like that where Sega wins as the worst and they'll be completely even.
Great episode. I loved this game as a kid. It's funny cuz I had both the SNES & Genesis as a kid, but I can't recall for sure which version I played (I'm leaning SNES or maybe both). The movie is a true action classic, so it's good to see a game based on a film IP that's actually really good...especially during the 16 bit era.
Hahaha the ending got me...flashing from movie to movie...brilliant idea! This was a fun one to watch. I didn't even know this came out on Genesis. I have it on SNES and it's fun but as you said, pretty tough. Great tunes, too.
I really hope that "chromaticity" becomes a common word. When you overhear someone using it somewhere, you'll know you've truly made your mark on the world
I was just thinking that the intro skit to this episode was a lot like the Batman Forever intro skit. Then Weird Al returned. I love it! 😂 This one’s a long shot but, given that the first hint is Charlie Brown, who is a boy (and the squiggly stripe on the front of his shirt resembles a W in that picture) and the second hint seems to be some kind of island, my guess is that the next episode is going to be *Wonder Boy vs. Adventure Island* which would make it one of those rarer SMS vs. NES episodes.
Heh, the Hot Shots and Bobcat Goldtwaithe refernces secures a like from me. Even if they come with a sideeffect of making me feel old to realize that stuff is now obscure stuff only people my generation and older recognize...
I sub to a lot of channels, but your videos are still pretty much the only ones I remember to actively click "like." They're just so good, it actually makes me remember to do so! 🤣
You guys still got it! Not sure what's the next episode means, but we're looking forward to it :D In the meantime, here's our suggestion for future episodes: WHICH IS BETTER?: Bugs Bunny in Rabbit Rampage (SNES) vs. Bugs Bunny in Double Trouble (GEN) Fatal Fury 2 The Death and Return of Superman Daffy Duck in The Marvin Missions (SNES) vs Daffy Duck in Hollywood (GEN) Maui Mallard in Cold Shadow (YES, the Genesis version does exist! But it was exclusive on the Sega Channel in North America) Spider-Man and X-Men in Arcade's Revenge (probably more like a LESS CRAPPY thing if you don't really like this game) The Terminator Pirates of Dark Water WHICH IS WORSE?: Wolverine: Adamantium Rage Shaq Fu PAC-MAN 2: The New Adventures The Incredible Hulk Terminator 2: Judgement Day And if you're bringing back WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?, we have some suggestion for ya: Mega Man 1, 2, and 3 (NES) vs Mega Man: The Wily Wars (GEN) Mega Man X (SNES) vs Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X (PSP) Fatal Fury Special (SNES vs Sega CD)
For the next episode hint, I think it might be a longshot, but Charlie is a boy, the second picture is an island. Call me crazy, but are we finally getting a Wonder Boy VS Adventure Island comparison!?
@@RitzLazyArtist Right.. now I remember. Nintendo lifted their restrictions after seeing sales of MK1 being higher for Genesis. Nintendo wanted to beat SEGA at everything. Well... They succeeded, sort of. They won the console wars, but now their rival has become their ally. lol
Great vid, I didn't know this game was also on the Genesis, I liked playing it on the SNES. I popped the true lies game in again when enter the gungeon released since the main characters movement reminded me of true lies.
You guys are so funny! I got to hand it to Pat, the more I see Pat in these skits, the more I like him overall. Love how you guys will just come out with a skit for an episode like ''oh we'll use deleted scenes from the special edition DVD/Blu-ray release as a skit. It's hilarious! Congratulations guys and hope to enjoy your videos for many more years.
I had this for Game Gear back in the day. Way better than the Gameboy version. I managed to beat it. Last boss was weird. Had to shoot him off the edge of the wing of the plane - but he didn't have a health bar. He would keep nudging forward and you had to shoot him back faster than he could edge forward until he fell off.
man I remember getting this game as well as other SNES games from a video rental store that was going out of business and was liquidating its inventory and what inspired me to get the game? Watching Video Arcade Top 10...ugh I think that showed how old I am...and how Canadian...lol but still a great game which was surprisingly published by LJN lol... and yeah it was super hard kid me couldn't do it without the invincibility password...don't ask why the infinite lives cheat used to creep kid me out when Aziz would pop up and call Harry a cheater lol...man ALOT of weird but fond memories I remember just form watching this episode, so props to you Dan and Pat! Great episode as usual!
I remember this one being available a bit late, like It was in every rent store in 1996. When ps1 and N64 were soon already available. As a result the cartridges were cheap and could be seen everywhere. This game kinda always reminded me of The Untouchables. And didn't look nothing out of ordinary for me as just another isometric 16 bit. But looking at it now the developers really nailed It. The violence, weaponry, plot following the movie. Everything is so well done and turns out it's the best action movie based games on Snes. maybe only second to Judge Dredd IMO
@@3xperiment8 there are a surprising number of good SNES licensed games wasn't there? This, Judge Dredd, Batman Returns, Aliens 3..Spawn, Robocop vs Terminator, Spiderman Maximum Carnage, I think Jurassic Park woulda been good if you could save your game maybe I'm weird I enjoyed Cliffhanger even though I know that game wasn't great...course there are the share of stinkers like Batman Forever, Robocop 3 or the Rocketeer lol
I love the Weird Al parodies - you guys nail them perfectly! This was an interesting one because I never really considered True Lies - maybe it's because Beam was behind some of LJN's more notorious games, but... Yeah. This was cool! Thank you! Also, it took me a minute to figure out the clue for the next video. Well played.
The best channel on TH-cam! You guys F Rock! I would like to suggest a crazy plot where you would need to switch places xD That would be a lot of fun. Keep the good work!
Anybody seeing the response from the "You've been selected" comments, that isn't us! Please disregard them!
it means you've hit the big time to be noticed by bots. ♥
I did
I’m glad I contacted Dan when I did. Thanks, Pat!
Paaaat, i wanna see that monthly shindiiiig
Awesome
The fact that you guys secured those deleted scenes is incredible. You shared history with us fans, and we are forever thankful.
It's not who you know...
Kids game based on a rated-R movie. Classic 90s.
You guys already started 2023 out with a banger
.... banger, after Banger, AFTER BANGER! ❕❗‼️💣💥
agreed
Superior handling of the chromaticity 😂
Wild guess: is the next game "Chuck Rock" ?

Well excuse me, princess!
That Uzi joke and that Bobcat Goldwaith tape recorder bit were hilarious. Good stuff!
Definitely an unappreciated gem. True lies was awesome for the 16 bits
Even the Gameboy one wasn't bad

Buy my book, buy my book, buy my book. Nice critic reference I thought I was the only one in the world that remember that show
Sometimes it just comes down to the handling of the chromiticery.
First episode of the year and the bar is set pretty high. Another great episode guys!
That last scene with the machine gun was so funny lol
This is why you guys are my top 3 favorite channels to watch. You guys keep getting better!! Dan and Pat keep em coming.
Glad you enjoyed it!
RIP Deacon Cider the Third, in his memory I'm going to name more game Characters after him
The THUMBNAIL! XD
Always a great day with a new Console Wars episode! That skit with the dock worker was hilarious! Shame the 2 games were so similar.
I played Mega Drive version as a kid. For last few years I switched to SNES version.
Last "deleted" scene was absolutely hilarious.
Every time I see Arnold from the back walking up, it reminds me of how some of the characters look in Soldiers of Fortune.

Thank you!
Next Weeks Episode- Chuckatraz: Son of Chuck
I was just thinking this morning, "I wish they would make a Console Wars for True Lies."
Now I know all I need to do is make a mental request, and it will be done within the hour. Thanks guys.
Use your powers for good
Can you mentally request Weapon Lord, please? xD
@@ConsoleWars I can't make any promises

Most of the time the SNES has much better audio, but the Genesis audio is more pleasing to my ear a good amount of times
Yup, samples compared to having to meticulously dial in FM sound with one DAC channel for samples and square channels
You guys are truly an underrated channel and deserve a lot more likes and subscribers. Keep up the awesome work.
Out of sheer curiosity I did a tally of every Console Wars episode, and here's the score for 85 out of the 96 episodes.
Nintendo: 41
Sega: 41
Tie: 3

Folks so dont realize that Dick Insider ,III was portrayed by the late actor Dick Goesinya. To have that lost footage is gold itself.

The cover pic of this vid is super funny!
Thanks for that humor!
I really hope that "chromaticity" becomes a common word. When you overhear someone using it somewhere, you'll know you've truly made your mark on the world
I can't watch this til a bit later, but that thumbnail made me choke on my drink. Can't wait to watch the rest!
As always, you put a smile on my face to see a new video out. Love the work you guys do!!
23:32 "He hates these cans!" :D
I can't believe you guys got THE Bobcat Goldthwait! Again!
I was just thinking that the intro skit to this episode was a lot like the Batman Forever intro skit. Then Weird Al returned. I love it! 😂

"superior handling of chromaticity" LMAO I gotta use that one
Superior handling of the chromaticity - I gotta remember that one 😄👍
The title card with Dan in drag was hilarious, lol.
Great job guys. Loved saying "Hi" at TMG and glad to see the videos keep coming.
You guys thumbnails are the funniest on this website 😄😄
Now I really want to see you two review Judge Dredd; one of my all time favorite SNES games
Hey, my favourite old school gamers! Where is Killer Imstinct vs. Eternal Champions? I'm still waiting...
Me too
"There's a cheat code that you can use in order to kill innocent people without losing a life... NICE!" LOL.
Best thumbnail lve seen in a long long time 😄😄
I never get as excited for a video as I do one of yours. See you guys next episode!
I sub to a lot of channels, but your videos are still pretty much the only ones I remember to actively click "like."
They're just so good, it actually makes me remember to do so! 🤣
You guys still got it!
Not sure what's the next episode means, but we're looking forward to it :D
In the meantime, here's our suggestion for future episodes:
WHICH IS BETTER?:
Bugs Bunny in Rabbit Rampage (SNES) vs. Bugs Bunny in Double Trouble (GEN)
Fatal Fury 2
The Death and Return of Superman
Daffy Duck in The Marvin Missions (SNES) vs Daffy Duck in Hollywood (GEN)
Maui Mallard in Cold Shadow (YES, the Genesis version does exist! But it was exclusive on the Sega Channel in North America)
Spider-Man and X-Men in Arcade's Revenge (probably more like a LESS CRAPPY thing if you don't really like this game)
The Terminator
Pirates of Dark Water
WHICH IS WORSE?:
Wolverine: Adamantium Rage
Shaq Fu
PAC-MAN 2: The New Adventures
The Incredible Hulk
Terminator 2: Judgement Day
And if you're bringing back WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?, we have some suggestion for ya:
Mega Man 1, 2, and 3 (NES) vs Mega Man: The Wily Wars (GEN)
Mega Man X (SNES) vs Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X (PSP)
Fatal Fury Special (SNES vs Sega CD)
Props for the Mark Felton music reference (Redemption's Last Chance).
I weirdly watched the film last night. I really enjoyed it and liked the FX/miniature work
Great episode, Dan and Pat! You guys are awesome! You guys are cool!
Hey, Console Wars. You guys should definitely compare Fatal Fury 2 - Super Nintendo vs. Sega Genesis! Pretty please?
on the list
@@ConsoleWars Thank you. I can't wait for that video to drop.
For the next episode hint, I think it might be a longshot, but Charlie is a boy, the second picture is an island. Call me crazy, but are we finally getting a Wonder Boy VS Adventure Island comparison!?
We have crossed the Rubicon weird Al is now being parodied
Help me up = buy my book. Damn that's a throwback
Great episode as always,happy new year,greetings from Brazil!
Bill Paxton is a legend.
"Deleted scenes" are the cat's me-ow
Keep it up the great content, guys. Love the authenticity of the videos and the obvious passion you put into them.
What a great episode guys, those skits were awesome and that Bobcat Goldthwait voice sounded so legit!
Hold up... Is that blood in a SNES game?
Did I miss something in the last 30 years?
It all started with the SNES release of Mortal Kombat II.
@@RitzLazyArtist Right.. now I remember. Nintendo lifted their restrictions after seeing sales of MK1 being higher for Genesis. Nintendo wanted to beat SEGA at everything. Well... They succeeded, sort of. They won the console wars, but now their rival has become their ally. lol

still cant believe u guys gave samari showdown to the snes
