Comments from hours ago?? Wut? I find Polybius more interesting than the other "creepypastas", like Ben Drowned or Lavender Town. Or even Lost Silver, which scared the hell out of me.
No actually you can play any amount of gameplay unless it has multiple colours, flashing lights, and very fast things. You can play Mario as long as you want.
Started college this week, and your videos have actually really helped me destress in my free-time, giving my brain something else to think about. Thanks! Great video as always.
Great video as always, Eric! I forgot all about Polybius. A part of me always wants these things to be real, like the Lavender Town Tone or Pokemon Black. #allthespooks
Eric your channel is truly amazing and you deserve so many more subscribers ive been watching since 2015 and cant wait for new uploads thank u for the great content
This is pretty interesting because I even remember Game Theory saying that the FBI thing was associated with Polybius exclusively I never really liked him but it's pretty weird to see that he would be this wrong
Hey scaretheater, long time watcher here! Love your channel! You should do an in depth reveiw of either the lavender tone,the iluminati cards or my personal favorate, the "predictions" in media (the simpsons,the towering inferno,johnny bravo etc) and how many key witnesses of the 9/11 terrorist attacks have "mysteriously" died. Thanks! And keep up the good work!
Scare Theater...You are one of my favorite youtubers right now, you tell people this stuff in a way that everyone understands and you make us not bored. Keep up the good work man :)
If anyone is wondering why there are some comments from 10+ hours ago, patreon donators get to see the videos fairly early before Eric uploads the spookiness public.
@ScareTheatre You should start up "Creepypasta Thoughts" again. I loved hearing your thoughts on them, and there are so many new stories out there. Big fan!
ScareTheater keeps getting better and better. This actually provided some interesting information I hadn't heard before in other Polybius analysis videos. I am pretty convinced that the events you described are pretty much what happened and word-of-mouth of the FBI invading arcades led to a game of telephone which resulted in the Polybius legend.
Honestly I really haven't kept up with many creepypasta/horror channels recently but this is the one channel i've been keeping up with consistently for a long time. Love the content, keep it up!
Very good job with this video, Eric. I have heard this story before but you uncovered some things that I hadn't heard before. The kids who became sick after marathon gaming sessions and the FBI raid on the (alleged) illegal gambling operation could have become blurred together to form the basis of the Polybius Legend. As ever, good work.
YAAAAASSS ERIC!! This is definitely a long time coming but oh my god it was so worth the wait, you should definitely cover "Petscop" (or have you already done it? I've lost count of those who have)
I haven't trusted Snopes.com ever since they said snuff films didn't exist. As someone who's seen a few on the surface web, and knowing the large amounts of them on the deep web, it's hard for me to take anything they report on seriously anymore.
Aaron Damien Snopes has a bit of interest in debunking certain "myths", likely out of financial or political profit or reasons. They have called other things "myths" or "debunked" when they were actually mostly true or had some amount of weight behind them or were just inconclusive as busted or true.
When professionals (FBI, snopes people, ect) talk about snuff films they seem to be talking about something different than the average person. To the average person a snuff film is a recording of a person dying, usually horrifically and with some torture involved. However these professionals consider the term to describe a recording of someone being murdered that is sold on the market for money.
I haven't visited Snopes in a while but last I heard of them they got hijacked by one of their advertisers and now it's full of political nonsense, most of it unconfirmed or fake
"OMFG WHY WAS THIS COMMENT POSTED A DAY AGO EVEN THOUGH THE VIDEO CAME OUT TODAY" Okay just stop people. Stop. People who donate to Scaretheaters patreon get early access to his videos so stop asking omf
Nice vid pretty interesting! I tried to stop watching your videos because I would get scared from all this spooky stuff (especially Daisy's destruction, that messes me up) but your videos are just so awesome and cool I just had to keep watching them. Keep up the good work!
Huh. I find this very interesting....Fake or not, there is definitely a debate about the mental effects on video games... We see how people waste their lives with their gambling addictions, and how violence in video games can influence violence tendencies...
Lived in Portland for 36 years this April 9th. I swear I have seen a copy of Polybius. Maybe Ground Kontrol down town, but probably one of the ones you mentioned at the end.
Another A+ upload. Good stuff man.
Nexpo hai
Damn 3 years and almost nobody saw this
@@dan65l.s.62 yea
30 likes and three comments? Now, I wouldn’t say I’m early, but wow.
gigga
I remember talking to my friend about this last year in middle school and he asked "what's an arcade?" And I'm like ಠ_ಠ
Hes not a friend
Dank_Duck_Productions that's why I said last year (´∀`)
Eyeless Jack lol, do you have Instagram?
Dank_Duck_Productions nah
Dank_Duck_Productions but I do have a gmail so we can talk on TH-cam share?
I went to this arcade game convention called ZapCon last year, and they had a mock Polybius machine there! Pretty cool.
Comments from hours ago?? Wut?

ScareTheater wait so that means that they saw the video early? Or what I'm confused.
If you play any game for long amount of hours, you're bound to get sick somehow.
No actually you can play any amount of gameplay unless it has multiple colours, flashing lights, and very fast things. You can play Mario as long as you want.

Finally I can play
Mario Kart 8 for 3 years
I used to be a flamboyant homosexual but then I played Polybius and I became straight.
Sidney Alexander out. >:U
Sidney Alexander now this is comedy
The Witness mike pence made it
I was a woman, then I played Polybius and now I am a man.
UUUGHHH I'm so fucking MAAAD! Why are all the fucking cute guys gay?
Started college this week, and your videos have actually really helped me destress in my free-time, giving my brain something else to think about. Thanks! Great video as always.
Nice video about this legend ScareTheater! :)
How tf are u here
I read that as scare fetus for some reason...
Great video as always, Eric! I forgot all about Polybius. A part of me always wants these things to be real, like the Lavender Town Tone or Pokemon Black. #allthespooks
Djfatfoo Yeah, I find video game urban legends really fascinating!
It's Patreon supporters fools.
Chicken Permission He probably meant the Creepypasta Creepy Black.

This is pretty interesting because I even remember Game Theory saying that the FBI thing was associated with Polybius exclusively I never really liked him but it's pretty weird to see that he would be this wrong
Cypher Ice To be fair he was using the existence of MK Ultra to try and show how if it did exist that it wouldn’t be unusual for the time period.
Polybius was one of the first legends i heard when i first found out about creepypastas in like 2011. Good times.
Hey scaretheater, long time watcher here! Love your channel!

Cool Cat Kowloon he did the predictions and he said he wont ever make videos on obviously fake creepypastas.
The best video game is spongebob vs Johnny test.
Killian Smith what really I'm sorry my bad I'll fix it.
*NEVER FIXES IT*
Where can I play it?
This reminds me of when I first found internet legends and creepypastas, oh the memories
Scare Theater...You are one of my favorite youtubers right now, you tell people this stuff in a way that everyone understands and you make us not bored. Keep up the good work man :)

I completely forgot about this legend, it is awesome, amazing content as always!

I played polybius and it helped me shit

@ScareTheatre You should start up "Creepypasta Thoughts" again. I loved hearing your thoughts on them, and there are so many new stories out there. Big fan!
You uploaded at the freaking perfect time, I get something to watch while eating dinner!!!
Scare Theatre is a time traveller! Spread the word!
EsKay J. Cole the goat
Another fantastic video, polybius was the first creepypasta I ever read and it lead me to your channel so I have to thank whoever created it
Props for using the cast of Resevoir Dogs at 0:33
Hey man, keep it going I'm always waiting with anticipation on your next video every time. It feels me with joy to see a new upload on my feed!
Thanks TH-cam notifications - also, Rad vid Eric!
Thanks for watching!
ScareTheater see you on the flip side
ScareTheater keeps getting better and better.
This actually provided some interesting information I hadn't heard before in other Polybius analysis videos. I am pretty convinced that the events you described are pretty much what happened and word-of-mouth of the FBI invading arcades led to a game of telephone which resulted in the Polybius legend.
Idk if anyone else noticed but the polybius arcade cabinet appears in loki
Yup. Right behind old Loki.
Honestly I really haven't kept up with many creepypasta/horror channels recently but this is the one channel i've been keeping up with consistently for a long time. Love the content, keep it up!
REDMARS2112 Thank you!
i can't stop watching ur VIDEOS THER'YE JUST SO GREAT TY FOR HEART !! :)
Thanks for watching!

Scaretheater I love all your hard work and it's entertaining
Thanks for watching!
Thanks, Scaretheater! I have wanted this video forever
when scare theater or blameitonjorge uploads something i click as fast as possible
I love this channel! Eric always takes a logical look at things, does his research, and is not gullible! Great Work!
Gotta love your upgraded effects, good job, keep it up, love your vids.
Some good content on TH-cam is still left haha
ЯΣЖ Thanks!
Man I remember when you had like 37k subs, didnt even realise you now have 250k. Good stuff man.
By the way, the legend Polybius might have been inspired by the East German arcade game: "Poly Play"
Very good job with this video, Eric. I have heard this story before but you uncovered some things that I hadn't heard before. The kids who became sick after marathon gaming sessions and the FBI raid on the (alleged) illegal gambling operation could have become blurred together to form the basis of the Polybius Legend. As ever, good work.
He didn't even mention Polybius appearance in the new nine inch nails music video less than
I love the Polybius Legend. The Polybius Legend is an awesome, creepy, and mysterious video game legend!
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL SO MUCH, LIKE WHY CAN'T YOU UPLOAD EVERYDAY 😩
I appreciated the fact that you chose 'Reservoir Dogs' to represent the men in black. So good xD
They just repackaged it as "I want to be the guy"
Hyenaguy I get that this is a joke, but according to the legend polybius is a puzzle/space shooter game,iwbtg is neither of these.
Please upload more frequently! Love your vids man!
Nine Inch Nails' "Less Than" video? Anyone?
Fuck yeah.
Ayyyy hell yeah
"So what are you waiting for?"
Y e s
You got what you asked for
YAAAAASSS ERIC!! This is definitely a long time coming but oh my god it was so worth the wait, you should definitely cover "Petscop" (or have you already done it? I've lost count of those who have)

That's literally what Daisy's Destruction is, and now there is actual proof that it exists (post on 4chan posted a good chunk of the real video).
I'd suggest seeing Ahoy's Vid on Polybuis. It's probably the most thorough vid I've seen of it on TH-cam.
Awesome video! It was a great push for me to finish out the weeks strong! Love ya man
What are your thoughts on the channel 'Circle Repeater'...?
it's funny how a video on the channel Gaming Historian also uploaded a video of this topic recently
"OMFG WHY WAS THIS COMMENT POSTED A DAY AGO EVEN THOUGH THE VIDEO CAME OUT TODAY"
Okay just stop people. Stop.
People who donate to Scaretheaters patreon get early access to his videos so stop asking omf
The music you have in your intros are pretty cool
The men in black is CERN

I always look forward to your videos. They never fail to amaze me!
Could you do a video about Sergei Paramarenko please?
Yes please, that would be awesome.
Hu dat
Bringing back that nostalgia I see. 🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Im gonna be a complete horsecock and say that it is pronounced "pholepheus" and not "polebius" as it is written.
Everybody gangsta until Ashens doesn't follow The Cube's plan
Polybius isn't that special, just your typical arcade game.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be joining the US Army
Finally ScareTheater uploaded! I love new videos.
Very nice video
Thanks!
Perfect right on schedule.
You can beat asteroids by spinning in one spot and holding down shoot, how is there a contest?

I like the use of Reservoir Dogs for the men in black
Hey

Hi
There's a whole book with a similar plot named armada. It even references it
Your voice is so calming
Some Poly’s are Bi, some are not.
Nice vid pretty interesting! I tried to stop watching your videos because I would get scared from all this spooky stuff (especially Daisy's destruction, that messes me up) but your videos are just so awesome and cool I just had to keep watching them. Keep up the good work!
You should do a disstrack 😂😂
(I'm joking btw )
dyl his mixtape would be fire.
Cancerous
Ahoy just did an amazing video about this game. Over an hour about this amazing story
Can you talk about Petscop ?
Bruno Is RAEL He already did, Btw nice 2d profile pic😫👌
He did but didn't finish it. I think he should update it
0:33 Is that Reservoir Dogs? This is why I love you
Can you look at the edgy af playlist on youtube
Is good to see you come back my boy welcome back
Hey Bro If You See This Say Hey
"In Portland, OR" AAAAYYYY
Huh. I find this very interesting....Fake or not, there is definitely a debate about the mental effects on video games...
We see how people waste their lives with their gambling addictions, and how violence in video games can influence violence tendencies...
Normerican 321 Yeah, that's very true. And, no problem! Thanks for donating
So then what influenced violent tendencies before video games? I never knew murder never existed before then!
Why the hell don't you have 5billion views and subscribers! You are ABSOLUTELY incredible
I love you. No homo. Unless you're into that.
Easily my favorite horror channel
i bet 100 bucks scaretheater wont pin this
Rick The Tick dang son u correct
**gives you 100 bucks**
Can we stop with these stupid like begging comments?
Totally a normal human Kids find these stupid comments funny but really they aren't.
I lost. *Goes hunting for bucks*
Hey, props to you for that Reservoir Dogs reference! You got great taste in movies.
Great video! Your one of my favorite channels and I can't wait for more!
The thumbnail for this video looked really good
I always love your videos. The second I see that they come out I always watch right away.
Thanks for always making my day man.
Nine Inch Nails just released a music video honoring this video game.
Song is called "Less Than"
Didn't expect to see this in my sub box never thought you would cover this great video anyway
Lived in Portland for 36 years this April 9th. I swear I have seen a copy of Polybius. Maybe Ground Kontrol down town, but probably one of the ones you mentioned at the end.
This thing scared the living shit out of me when I first saw Mat Pat's video
*gunshot*
