It's so funny to make a kong game but also leave the scale of the world normal so he just looks like a regular gorilla
He actually looked fucking tiny to me in some parts. Like a toy. Didn't even look regular sized, just tiny.
@@fivestarguy100looks like a dude in some gorilla suit tbh. like, a strangely small and unimpressive gorilla
@@fivestarguy100 Every time he fights crabs he looks toy sized. In some parts he even looks bug sized.
King Kong? This is Pawn Kong
Amazingly enough, Vinny had less glitches than Joel.
Joel had the game softlock FIVE TIMES due Kong getting stuck midair by JUMPING.
Huh playing enough corruptions must make the glitches afraid of you
Even VinePassive™ didn't bother with this game. That says enough tbh.
joel borrowed vinny's passive for his own stream
It was Sabaton's revenge
Who is Joel?
It’s very great to see a shovelware revival in the very healthy landscape of games…
And it's all because the masses bought that stupid wizard game because the internet wouldn't shut up about it.
Ah yes, Wizards 101
Wdym Cuphead Portals is a 10/10 game
The nature is healing
@@Code7Unltd
Enchanted Portals?
This was a fun stream, I remember the chat being full of KONG INJURED at one point.
Kong injured the people who bought this game
Kong injured the friends we made along the way.
Expand Kong.
Vinny making bullet-point 'objectives' for terrible games will never not be funny.
Restrict blood flow to Gollum's throat
Throttle Gollum to completion
@@Kwauhn. yeah that definitely sounds like another euphemism for 'squeezing his hog'
"gollum-like" is a new genre I'm hoping for indeed
aka shovelware
Joining "strand type" and "itchio trash" on the list of new game types weve identified since everything had to be dark souls a ways back
@@memberofchat2825*Triple A Shovelware
this game really makes you feel like a gorilla made it by bashing two stones together. Bravo Kongjima
Rise of Schlong
The fake objectives joke will always be my favourite vinny bit
Fun fact, this is based on joe devito's kong book, which uses the public domain of the novel and is approved by the estate of the og creator, it also has spin off comics which inspired the game, namely gaw.
That Hellboy game was approved by the comic author, and it came out being so much of a turd that the developer extended the review embargo to a week after launch.
@@Code7Unltd miyamoto approved of the notorious mario live action film. that should be an indicator of how much you should care when an IP holder/creator says they approve of a piece of media using their IP. of course they love it, it’s their IP in movies, video games, and more and they likely see it as an expression of love for their creation. good for them ig but that kind of approval being made public is usually a marketing tactic.
@@logandunlap9156Don't compare this to the 97 Mario Bros movie. I rewatched it yesterday, and it honestly holds up pretty good, except for the scene where Bowser tries to seduce Daisy, that should not have been in the movie aimed at kids.
@@logandunlap9156 awful comparison.
Mario Bros may be bad, but it has a *soul*
Somebody pointed out they did a really great job of making a 25ft tall king kong feel like playing a regular size silverback gorilla
2023 saw the return of licensed shovelware, God you love to see it. Hoping we get another Monkey Mischief like.
When did it ever go away?
@@johnyamahakeyboard7472 I don't know, but it really felt much less prevalent around after the Wii era or so. Fewer lazy tie-ins for every single popular movie or show or other IP that didn't need a game for it. Maybe because by that point those tie-ins stopped being quite so fast and cheap to make on newer generations of consoles (at least if you don't want them to look embarrassing compared to the average AAA game they would be competing with, much as with this King Kong game here), or maybe studios got burned on those projects enough times to finally realize that shovelware isn't worth the effort and won't give a good return on their investment.
@@TheBruin42 I'd say it was more when acclaim went bankrupt due to the casual audience of the wii and ds dying out due to the amazing sales of the wiiU
@@johnyamahakeyboard7472When it became clear that all the real money for zero effort was in the mobile games market.
@@TheBruin42 The rise of mobile games also undoubtedly played a part. Why bother going through all the effort of developing a full console game when you can just slap some assets together, bog it down with microtransactions and call it a day?
So happy he called it "PS2 level shovelware", because that's exactly what I thought when I first saw this game!
Probably two of the most well known giant monsters are Godzilla and King Kong. Godzilla turned 69 this year, and he's getting a new movie, an Apple TV show, and even a comic book crossover with the Justice League. King Kong turned 90 this year, and this is basically all he got outside of two comics.
Poor monke
"Godzilla blesh the unehtehd stehts" - Donatello J Twump, former president of the Hair Club for Perverts
Scalie dominance
Love that at 00:25 Vinny said he considered getting the Wii version and I didn't even question that statement when I watched the stream 💀 Just thought "yeah, it's a Wii game alright, that checks out."
Vinny stopping himself when describing The Stink Zone fucking killed me
Lego Racers OST goes unfathomable hard
This whole game was completely developed by a full team of monke. I just know it!
we all thought infinite chimps on infinite typewriters would give us shakespeare, but we got kong instead
really makes you FEEL like you’ve evolutionarily regressed
please. lets all make a game rating system where "Gollum level" is a widely accepted category.
This isn't "Rise of Kong".
This is "Fall of Quality".
Sounds like a Steven He bit xD
this has to be my favorite Xbox 360 Indie game of all time. Thanks for playing it.
A little late to the party sir
Kong won the argument.
"The Beacons are lit, Kongdor calls for aid!" "And Vinesauce will answer."
It's funny to see this called "ps2 shovelware" especially considering the ps2 era "King Kong" game made nearly 20 years ago was phenomenal. The shovelware is jealously trying to bury its father.
The textures are flashing so much that this video probably needs an epilepsy warning
my favorite ever stream of this game was when youtuber Jauwn streamed it. he pirated it (openly with zero shame, even showed the crack), got stuck on an area because something broke, speedhacked the game hoping to crash it or break the collision, then deleted all of the files on camera before going on to do something else. great fucking stream, loved it
i gotta see that stream
119 minutes played... down to the wire. Loved seeing this live.
You gotta love when you can tell how well a game controlls just by watching gameplay.
Just so you know, the publisher GameMill gave the developers only one year to finish this game and failed to provide enough funding to pay better and more experienced staff. Small dev teams make shitty licensed games because that's all their shitty publishers want them to do, and they keep doing it because they need the money to create actually good games. Apparently this is common practice in the industry. There's an article about this game on The Verge that explains why it's so bad.
This is exactly the kind of game I'd expect a publisher called "GameMill" to publish though
@@Randomlollis Yeah, I don't know why you'd name your company GameMill if you're planning on doing anything other than pump out crappy shovelware. Nothing with the name "X" Mill that isn't an actual mill is anything good.
I don't think we hate on the people who make the games, or at least not Vinny. I think he knows the gravity of what makes shovelwere well how they are.
I mean remember a few years back when he was playing that circus game for the Wii and he was surprised to hear Mike Polks Voice as the Ringleader?
A little into the stream someone mentioned to Vinny Mike posted on Twitter about being made aware of the work he did and Vinny was on Mike's side about how finding work is important and you gotta take what you get.
Just so you know, the developers looked at the budget and didn't even care once they saw how little they were paid so they just kicked back and did nothing 90% of the time and intentionally made it bad as a revenge thing. The levels were entirely AI generated which is why they are full of softlock traps you can;t escape from and bad layouts and no map system.
More money does not equal work ethic, it just enables more lazyness, which you see with college kids all the time. There are game devs that were literally given over a million or more dollars to make a game through crowdfunding and then just, never made it. They disappeared and you never heard from them again. And nobody cared. Wash rinse repeat.
@@Randomlollis gamemill also made big rigs which is regarded as one of the worst games to ever have been made and has an 8/100 on metacritic
It's like they saw the flying gorilla game and said "ha ha, let's make that but more expensive."
Amazing that graphically this looks around 20 years out of date
The DKC music fits so well to this game and actually makes me want to play it JUST so I can dub DKC music over the footage.
This year was full of some of the highest highs and the lowest lows
Reminder, Vinny saw a single cutscene and decided to buy it, and didn’t even get to the cutscene he wanted
This game and Gollum make me wonder if the whole talk i've seen about the industry "heading to another crash" actually has some truth to it
all Warner Brother properties, very curious
All that talk about a crash are nothing more than sensationalism, the industry is stronger than it ever has been and some random little piss games aren't gonna do anything to change that
@@BIacklce Afaik this isn't even based on the WB property, it's based on some old book version and they're probably banking on people confusing it with the WB property. There's some serious copyright shenanigans going on with this game.
@@YEs69th420 Holy shit, I don't think I've ever seen a more cliché paragraph for what the head of a company says to the board of investors the week before they go bankrupt.
I hadn't even heard about a looming crash but your comment just filled me with dread
@@an_fiachthat's really not how executives talk and they're right. If the gaming market crashes it's because of rising costs of game production, not because 2 bad games came out. But the industry is currently the biggest entertainment industry in the world.
Excited for the impending rise of the Gollum-like genre
2:42 the music playing here is Stilt Village from Donkey Kong Country 3. Took me a while of listening to DKC music trying to find it, but I've discovered how good it is in the process, so I'd consider that time well spent. Also I suggest continuing to listen to that in the background of the rest of this video, after the music stops in-video. That increased my enjoyment by at least 50%.
This feels like a video game King Kong would make
Vinny has to check out the 2005 king Kong movie game
Call that game by it's proper title.
i hope gollum-like becomes a new genre of videogames
this really makes my kong rise
Remember Gormless Kong? This is him now.
He had a glow down
"Your stick ran out of bullets!" might aswell be my favorite Vinesauce quote
He is slowly turning into the Angry Video Game Nerd, I was just waiting for him to say "What were they thinking!?"
The difference is that Vinny is funny.
He's already mimics the AVGN several times in the past years, and he did videos with James in his house as a guest appearance.
AVGN was funny up until he made the movie. Once he made the movie his humor dropped off significantly. He started over-rehearsing and scripting his dialogue. He forced the videos into an unnatural state. The reason Vinny is consistently funny is he says the first things he thinks of, and just ad-libs everything. He just speaks how he feels. That's the same reason why early AVGN was good, He was speaking honestly how he felt. Once he started getting more and more famous he became more and more concerned with his image and started scripting stuff heavily. You can't force humor like that. @@genyakozlov1316
This whole video I was filled with dread that Vinny would forget how much time he had and not refund the game, accidentally giving the company 30 very undeserved dollars
Bad games make more money than good games because it provides streamers with something to talk about and say "look how bad this is" which gives the developers 10 times more publicity and gets everyone to play it to see how bad it is, making them 4 times more money over if they made a good game.
When you refund, you get all the money back. However there are fees with digital sales on steam, so the publisher actually loses money with every refund
Like how you can Bearley tell your supposed to be a kaiju sized monster and not a regular ape
i think *barely* is taking it too far. There is absolutely no indication that kong is bigger than usual.
If this was my first intro to King Kong i would probably think he's freakishly small
Kong actually looked really fucking small at some points to me. Like a little kids toy. He didn't even look regular sized, just small.
@@fivestarguy100 looked like one of the plastic action figures you would get at McDonald's as a kid
They actually tried by making human ruins and villages small in comparison to Kong but it doesn't matter because everything in the game makes Kong look like a regular sized gorilla.
"We are witnessing a Gollum-level event here, we will have updates as things progress"
Joel be konging for justice
Can't believe we are still getting shovelware games like this in the year of our dark lord, 2023
We never found wife or rode wife that night 😔
Shovelware is back, nature is healing
05 King Kong game will forever be goated
When I saw the highlight that was released before the edit, the 'objectives' were visible. When I saw that, I legit thought this was a meme game and the objectives were real :P The highlight was from 6:10
Calling this a Gollum-like is an insult to Gollum, frankly
Did anyone else see Peter Jackson's Kong as a younging and get traumatised by the giant insect/worm scene?
i saw that movie as an adult and got traumatized by the giant bugs. i've got a strong stomach when it comes to scares and gore, but that was the most disturbing thing i've ever seen in a movie (second only to the human centipede 2)
every game should be like this i think
So true
agreed
i agree, maybe people wouldn’t spend 120 dollars on the premium edition of every new release if they were all golum-likes
The infinite monkeys on infinite typewriters are getting somewhere.
I'm sure the complete works of Shakespeare are next!
More PJ slop, never fails to undeliver.
For those who aren’t aware, this game was developed by GameMill Entertainment, the same guys behind Nickelodeon All Stars Brawl 1 & 2. I’m personally really hyped for NASB2 based on the trailers I’ve seen. So my fingers are crossed that this game is an example of a game developer being given multiple projects to work on at once, and choosing to put all of their resources and talent into one of them, while the other one is completely neglected because they knew hardly anyone would be interested in buying it even if it wasn’t a big sh**load of f***.
haha shitload of fuck. love the AVGN
"the Wii version" nah this is the Xbox orginal version
I was on the edge of my seat hoping to christ Vinny would be able to get his refund. Incredible tension, very well done!
And what’s _really_ funny about this? The last licensed Kong game from 2005 is actually really fucking good.
Did you know that Rise of Kong is the first game that is a Strand Type Game, and a Gollum-like
Skull Island Rise of Kong walked so that Black Myth Wukong could run
Just a fyi this game was rushed out and under funded does not make it better just explains a little.
Remember that GameMill published this. They did "Big Rigs" and the recent Nicktoons racers.
This year we have gotten some of the best games of the year and absolute pieces of garbage you could barely even call a video game.
i haven't been looking much at new releases. what are some of the best games of the year?
@@jimmybean420Lies of P, Amnesia: the Bunker & Spiderman 2 were pretty good
@@jimmybean420Baldur's Gate 3 is another example
The sad thing is the reason this is so bad is because the devs were only given less than a year to make it, which is crazy for a full game these days.
The quality isn't even really the devs fault! It's executives who didn't know any better!
Mobile game level video game for a major francise
shout-outs to battlebunny
Gollum vs Kong: The Fecal Wars
2023 just bringing the hits.
"Action game with giant ape fighting creatures" SHOULD be fun and cool.
12:42 Kong remembers the embarrassing photo, then he goes into ultimate monke mode
if I remember right, King Kong is public domain, and thus anyone can make anything with it without restriction.
Everyone making fun of the JPG in the cutscene needs to cut the developers some slack.
It could've been a PNG.

7:43 *S P E E T*
it just hit me that this is a soulslike
King Kong, a monkey the size of a building, doesn't even look big in this game. 10/10 world design.
I've said this already but
WE WERE SCROUNGER
the game was put out by a developer called _game mill._ Tells you everything you need to know
No, they were the publishers. They are the ones who gave the actual developer, IguanaBee, the budget and time restrictions (one year) that resulted in this game. And apparently communication wasn't very good between the two companies, either.
This is the very game
Just when you think Gollum didn't make Vinny go bananas, these developers:
cant wait of the sequel for this game when monke finally becomes kong
At 6:03, I instantly thought "Yeah, you're stuck now."
The Snes version of DKC3 music fits so well on how hilariously bad the game is
This has got to be the strangest souls-like game in the franchise
I like that the monsterverse is a multimedia franchise, but this is wild
Vinny should make more shovel ware vids like this.
donkey kong country 3 music Pog
petition to change title to Rise of Dong
Pour one out for the concept artist who seemed to actually be talented 😔
I know what the issue with the scale is. It's the damn foliage. They have normal sized bushes and shit, even trees are too big for being KING KONG.
At least this game wasn't shown at the game awards as a revolutionary new game like gollum.
5:40 They can quote you on that when advertising the game lol
thank you vinny, very blow my brains out core
Thumbnail seems to say, "Rise of Kono"
Finally license titles returning to their natural habitat
You should definitely stream the 2005 game now, just to show how much better it is
I think what I said before bears repeating: This honestly makes me feel like what we're doing is completely in vain. This is the kind of moment that makes you realize that we've been shouting at a hurricane this whole time. I can yell and scream as loud as possible, and it won't make a difference. Game companies are gonna keep making these atrocities, and keep making them worse, and considering that this is the shit that people apparently WANT to see, who am I to complain? You'd think something would change by now, but no, it's impossible. It's impossible to change anything...
