YEAHH!!! Thanks for playing this! I completely forgot I sent it to you guys, but now I remember putting it in the box of games and getting super excited for this episode
As a German, every morning our parents rely on us to chase the rolling chocolates down the mountains, if we fail to do so we are flogged mercilessly. It's a simple life.
I have some fond of memories of Rising Zan. Campy, entertaining and button-mashy. By the by, 'All Button Event' is basically 'randomly mash everything in the controller as fast as you can', not 'press all the buttons in the controller in some kind of order'. Seeing you trying to do that made me laugh hard. XD
Dayum! another fine example of why this show always makes me smile ;D also I really love the editing, you always put in those well fitting songs and video clips, every time I'm just like "Oh shit I forgot about that song / clip" but it's always dead on. Great job guys you always make my day, thank you so much for that ^-^
I knew as soon as i saw that you guys were playing this, i wasn't going to be disappointed with results. I really wanna go back and play this game again.
Thanks for the upload guys! I've recently discovered your podcasts and fantasy fiction as well! I appreciate all the work you guys put into your projects, keep up the good work and thanks for the entertainment.
That was the fastest 18 minutes of my life. Also, I think it'd be cool if you guys tried playing Red Steel 2 for Wii (it has to be No. 2 because No.1 was terrible), but maybe that's too new.
Any time, brudda!!! You should also totally check out the Fantasy Fiction Podcast, as it's the totally rad thing that Dom and Josh do that lead to this. It's got booty clappin' golems and maidens with badonkalicious back meat
I love how as they were asking if he was a samurai or a gunman first, the game was explaining how he was a gunman first. That being said, I would give this game a continue because it seems like there may be more to this game than is readily apparent at the beginning.
Hey anyone know what Nick Murphy was talking about at the end? The "15 different people giving the same account of the same thing" he said? They said it was called "Rashiman" or something?
***** Thomas Edison, the master thief that harnessed the power of the Blacksmith of Lightning, Nikolai Tesla. In the end, he chose to put his past as a scumbag thief behind him and give something back to society. But not the things he stole tho XD
Over here we have Welch's grape jam directly next to the grape jelly in the stores. Supposedly there's some difference between them, but I have my doubts.
lucidloon Really? There is a huge difference. Jelly is made with just the juice, jam uses the crushed fruit. It's like saying you have doubts there is a difference between apple juice and apple cider, they are clearly different.
***** Ah, a slight caveat there, there's a difference if they're actually made with those different methods and aren't just a fancier name on the label because marketing.
I want these guys to play Downhill Domination for PS2. I played that game so much as a kid, I actually beat it, I think they'd have a lot of fun playing it.
***** But when it first launched, it was claimed it would get all the videos a week early, and it did for a little while. Do you know why that stopped?
I liked Rising Zan. This was the real precursor to Devil May Cry. I enjoyed playing it, and will return for another play. I didn't beat it the first time I played it, but I have the time now.
I have this game, it's awesome. I thought it was dumb the first time I played it but once I figured out how it's supposed to be played it became a lot of fun. Also it was not made in America, the developer was UEP Systems, who are Japanese and also made the Cool Boarders games.

Man lives in the sunlit world of what he believes to be reality.But...there is, unseen by most, an underworld, a place that is just as real,but not as brightly lit... a darkside!!
Oh also, were you seth green in that one episode where his dad beats him Josh? Or is that tales from the crypt? Getting my horror anthology all mixed up!
HOLY SHIT !!! I just had a flash back to 1995 when that mortal kombat movie music came on ..ha ..I almost jumped up in my room and screamed MORTAL KOMBAT !!! just like I did in the theater ..
The first impact! so this is how neon genesis evangelion started lol and speaking of weird furniture when i was in philly a couple weeks ago we were walking down the street and someone had put out a matress with whats the matress? spray painted on it and an old chair with a life sized cardboard cut out of lil john sitting in it hahaha
I love Josh because...
Well...
Try hating kittens. It's the same as trying to hate Josh. Can't happen.
Oh you hate kittens?
You monster
Mew
Josh
YEAHH!!! Thanks for playing this! I completely forgot I sent it to you guys, but now I remember putting it in the box of games and getting super excited for this episode
Good for you
Yeah good fucking job ya god damn king of all David's!
I'm sorry ... You're a good person
great show, you guys make me look forward to every wednesday. thank you!
As a German, every morning our parents rely on us to chase the rolling chocolates down the mountains, if we fail to do so we are flogged mercilessly. It's a simple life.
im I the only one requesting a montage of all the haircuts Paul has had?
Man, if you guys could play Muppet Racemaina on your show, that'd make my week!
The coolness of cowboys and the awesomeness of ninjas? Who can ask for more?

Paul Ritchey: Direction and cinematography
Josh Henderson: Editing and post-production
Nick Murphy: Just here to be handsome and charming
We need Continue in 1080p. Make it happen please.
I don't think that we would benefit much from that, best we could get was REALLY SHARP 2 inch pixels from the ps1 era.
Honnestly it wouldn't change shit to the games they play. It would only make a difference during the intro and outro.
Yay a new episode! So glad I discovered these guys a few days ago, they're so awesome and funny!
For those wondering what song they were talking about:
Rising Zan EN OP: Johnny No More by David Nowlin and Greg Weber
All Button Event!

Have i ever said you guys make the best show to watch stoned?!
That was the fastest 18 minutes of my life. Also, I think it'd be cool if you guys tried playing Red Steel 2 for Wii (it has to be No. 2 because No.1 was terrible), but maybe that's too new.
I WANT PAUL'S SHIRT! I TOO WANT TO "KEEP ON WIZARDIN!" Lol
fantasyfiction.bigcartel.com/ ENJOY!!!!
Super Rad man! Thanks!

Pork unit.
13:28 Tales from the Darkside intro. One of my favorite shows :)
I love how as they were asking if he was a samurai or a gunman first, the game was explaining how he was a gunman first. That being said, I would give this game a continue because it seems like there may be more to this game than is readily apparent at the beginning.
Hey everybody it's Zan!
I want some toast.
With a bit of royal Zan spread all over it, mmmmmmmmm.
Oh, hey... Big Zan!
Lol the normal boots intro thinks surprised me! Forgot that they were part of normal boots!
Holy shit, just when you think you've seen it all.
A mid-episode Ken Burns documentary by Dom.
GOD DAMN.
lol this is an instant classic, too fuckin funny. I'm guessing Paul edited this..
fuck, goddamn it Josh.
Oogachaka Baby
Josh
I have the same shirt as Paul! Plus I'm pretty sure Dom and/or Josh touched it at some point, so I'm pretty much the coolest.
I just need an "80s as fuck" poster of Nick or something
I tooched it
-dom
10:38 I heard ninjas used to wear navy blue instead of black so they could disguise themselves better against the moon.
Wonder if the Completionist will review this game as well tomorrow.
I used to play this when I was little. I loved this game.
>Paul wears a fantasy fiction shirt
>illuminate confirmed
The Ken Burns parody is my personal favorite recurring joke on the show, especially with Granola Daniel.
Nick Murphy's hair has psychic powers and they are growing as it becomes more and more perfect.
It's true, we love our chocolate mountains here in Germany!
Well, The Chocolate Mountain does sound like some weird sex act...
noisyturtle We love weird sex acts, too.
NICE SHIRT, PAUL!
Picked this game up recently. Fantastic game. Weird and quirky with great sense of humor. The spiritual father of No More Heroes.
That Granola Daniel guy seems like a real badass. Obama should probably pay him his $750.
Hey anyone know what Nick Murphy was talking about at the end? The "15 different people giving the same account of the same thing" he said? They said it was called "Rashiman" or something?
Ha, I was just wondering if we'd see any Dom cameos any time soon. Hope you guys do one with all four of you again sometime ^-^
i was expecting a Zan Alda cameo.
Nick Murphy's smile is infectious.
I dig Paul's Fantasy Fiction shirt! I still need one!
Continue Show is the only reason I ever know its Wednesday.
Ah yes Albert Einstein. The greatest samurai of them all. He mowed foes down with his wizard science and was as indestructible as matter XD
And then came other samurai warriors like Newton the guy can control gravity and Edison the guy who made weapons out of electricity
Mostafa Shahin I think you mean Edison, the guy who stole all his ideas for making weapons out of electricity from Tesla.
***** Thomas Edison, the master thief that harnessed the power of the Blacksmith of Lightning, Nikolai Tesla. In the end, he chose to put his past as a scumbag thief behind him and give something back to society. But not the things he stole tho XD
Not sure if they wore farmer (peasant) attire to blend in or because the original ninja were actually farmers XD
Those two things are not mutually exclusive.
I actually just saw Roshamon the other day. Good job Nick.
the hero of this game are so funny character, this game deserves to be better known and to have more fan art.
loved this game as a kid
"Skip It" was awesome to use as a whip!
Great episode, guys! What is the name of the piano piece that is playing during the Granola Daniel bit?
Those Dom bits are always a riot.
Yay! My Fantasy Fiction shirts just got here! KEEP ON WIZARDIN'!
What is the music used for the Granola Daniels part?
Wow... those QTEs were insane...
Oh, and we call it Jam over here in Australia (and also England) Jelly to us is the stuff you call Jello.
Over here we have Welch's grape jam directly next to the grape jelly in the stores. Supposedly there's some difference between them, but I have my doubts.
lucidloon Really? There is a huge difference. Jelly is made with just the juice, jam uses the crushed fruit. It's like saying you have doubts there is a difference between apple juice and apple cider, they are clearly different.
*****
Ah, a slight caveat there, there's a difference if they're actually made with those different methods and aren't just a fancier name on the label because marketing.
***** That definition of jam is what we call preserves, I think. These two Welch's products have the same consistency, same ingredient list, etc.
Wait, how did Nick predict the future? I was confused at that part.
I would also like to know this...
He said that a random minigame would just happen earlier, then the bomb happened.
Oh yeah, lol
The title screen is exactly Metal Gear Rising. I wonder
Are they still doing the continuecast? I haven't got any notifications on the podcast
what's the sad music they often use in those little montages?
So ah that smart guys show I been waiting for.. That's coming soon right? Please say yes
I'm pretty surprised a game like this existed. I'd have thought it would have been bigger at the time.
The premier Franco. Holy shit that was hilarious.
You are correct, we in Germany know about peanut butter and jelly. And we don't have peanut butter cups except in Ben & Jerry's ice cream.
My god. What a nightmare!
Josh
How did nick murphey predict the future?
Your original couch was from Rooms To Go and you missed a payment on it right?
Josh's Skip-it song caused me to spit out my drink.
13:22
OUR GOOOOOOOD, IS AN AWESOME GOD! HE RAAAAAINS FROM HEAVEN ABOVE!
I want these guys to play Downhill Domination for PS2. I played that game so much as a kid, I actually beat it, I think they'd have a lot of fun playing it.
Are we ignoring the fact that he said his name was the ultra sexy hero??
What ever happened to NormalBoots.com getting everything first?
Whatever happened to you shutting your cake-receiver-port?
Dayum! You sure put me in my place. I guess.
Clowndoe Indeed sir. My proximity to Fantasy Month makes me ever bolder.
FANTASY MOOOOOOOOONTH!!!!
***** But when it first launched, it was claimed it would get all the videos a week early, and it did for a little while. Do you know why that stopped?
Clowndoe They said it was because a witch threatened to curse them if they kept doing so and they're afraid of witches.
17:20 how dare you make a smart joke so on point that I choke on my nightly watermelon! How dare you make me laugh this much!
That was exactly, how it happened! History, man. Strange things happen.
This game was made by UEP a japanese company and published by Agetec.
I liked Rising Zan. This was the real precursor to Devil May Cry. I enjoyed playing it, and will return for another play. I didn't beat it the first time I played it, but I have the time now.
I know you guys are busy, but any news on the next continuecast and/or syndicationstation?
also "johnny no more"? did Luke Brown name this character?
I like how only one of his dreams was to become the greatest hero of all time. As if any other dream would be mentionable compared to that.
Nice shirt Paul!!!
For some reason Nick's shirt looks all weird with the green screen and I have no idea why.
I have this game, it's awesome. I thought it was dumb the first time I played it but once I figured out how it's supposed to be played it became a lot of fun.
Also it was not made in America, the developer was UEP Systems, who are Japanese and also made the Cool Boarders games.
6:30 into the video, gameplay finally starts lol...
Can I just say, I really really like Paul's hair. Don't know where that thought is coming from, but I thought I'd let everyone know.
If I may ask KINDLY, what's the status on ContinueCast?
You guys should do a Kickstarter to get Ken Burns to direct an episode of Continue.
Eiffel 65 are an Italian three-piece Italo dance/Eurodance group consisting of Jeffrey Jey, Gabry Ponte and Maurizio Lobina.
There are a total of 60 institutions of higher education in the greater Boston area, including 5 junior colleges.
I don't know about heat waves... I'm not a wizard scientist.
Oh Samurais and Cowboys so belong together. You guys should go get Red Steel 2 because that game is awesome!
Man lives in the sunlit world of what he believes to be reality.But...there is, unseen by most, an underworld, a place that is just as real,but not as brightly lit... a darkside!!
Wednesday already? Damn, my life goes fast.
Aww yeah gonna watch some tales from the darkside now, thanks Josh.
Oh also, were you seth green in that one episode where his dad beats him Josh? Or is that tales from the crypt? Getting my horror anthology all mixed up!
that music still creeps me out to this very day :[
HOLY SHIT !!! I just had a flash back to 1995 when that mortal kombat movie music came on ..ha ..I almost jumped up in my room and screamed MORTAL KOMBAT !!! just like I did in the theater ..
Sweet shirt, Paul.
I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME. Now that that is out of the way I still say that this is the BEST PS1 game.
This is my first time watching this channel. Does the guy on the left side of the couch remind anyone else of Nick Frost?
The first impact! so this is how neon genesis evangelion started lol
and speaking of weird furniture when i was in philly a couple weeks ago we were walking down the street and someone had put out a matress with whats the matress? spray painted on it and an old chair with a life sized cardboard cut out of lil john sitting in it hahaha
Clearly this guy multiclassed in Samurai first then Gun-man. He's gonna have some weird Hit Dice.
We must extract Nick Murphys brain and install it into a super computer built to predict the future with the help of his brain.
And then war for the future machine started
Don't worry, we shall build a space station where the enlightened ones shall live.Safe from all the mayhem down below as the world falls.
Josh is right. This is so Takashi Miike.
Bring 'em back home Orcbama.
I continue this week's Continue?. I want to see how it ends. Metatinue.
Sweet video guys
This game looks pretty awesome actually.
