10:33 I'm pretty sure she was an art thief or something like that. We could all Google search it, but AI ruined it so now it'll probably tell you she's the mayor of San Diego
She used to be a mysterious figure, and everyone would ask WHERE she is, or even WHEN she is (for some reason). Now, she's slumming it looking for drums.
"you don't need to beat a whole game to review it, i think that's dumb" eeehhh... i think, if you are a professional reviewer, you really should. maybe not "100 percent, all collectibles and endings" completion, but... and if you don't you need to *lead* with that, instead of writing a whole review talking down on the story or the gameplay when you didn't even get to the meat of it (which might still be rotten, but at least you wouldn't be caught saying it's something it isn't)... idk, a random dude bumbling around is different XD
Yeah him and kevduit been just cutting off at random points in games recently to try and keep up with the pace they had to start off. He edits these out of his streams but if you’re not following him on social media idk when he even streams. I like them on TH-cam and hope they did what mindpulp recently did after people said the same. They’d play 2-3 levels and just give no conclusion and end it. Wierd endings…. Too short. Oboe needs to revisit this one.
Brand Activated? Lols same thing for me. now i'm curious to see the other Carmen Sandiego games maybe even research the shows since it's been awhile since i seen anything about them so thank you for making a video about this game i look forward to seeing the next video & GN or Good Day to you
no joke. I come from a mormon family back in the super early 2000s I went to the school library and printed a ton of images of Carmen Sandiego and took them home. I put them under my mattress and used them at night. anyways, one day I came home and my mom had the images and asked why I had those. When my dad came home my parents broke my skateboard and threw away my ps2 and Dell PC. I stopped being Mormon that day
Wait... So Carmen Sandiego is a criminal for stealing art, but Lara Croft murders the heck out of a ton of people to basically steal stuff and gets to be the good girl?
@Gorbachof not about the devs, more like the public opinion. If the audience is told this or that character is the good guy, they ignore even horrible things said "good" character does, even murder. That is the wild part.
Originally Lara was not a good person, she was in for the thrill of it, and unlike Indiana Jones, she would keep the finds for herself. Games that came after the CORE trilogy, and especially the most recent ones, have tried to spin her as the good guy she clearly wasn't.
This was really bad man. You do need to at least play a few levels to judge a game. You getting lazy af. You could tell it was supposed to be some other game. You could tell there might be something completely different coming in later levels. More platforming maybe? Who knows. But I know that Oboe the “game reviewer” doesn’t know either and cheated me when I was pumped to watch him play some slop. What’s the deal brah. 😢
I think you need to play more than a tutorial level to review a game at least. There are tons of games that dish out upgrades or moves as you go along and not just in the first 5 minutes of gameplay. The best reviews of games I've seen are from people who actually bother to play the full game and can give criticism and praise accordingly towards every aspect of the game. Compare that to someone who judges an exprience based on less than 10% of the entire experience and yeah I'm going to disagree that games journalists don't need to beat the games they review. What a trash take.
This does feel like it was supposed to be a different game, the intellectual property deal fell through, and suddenly it was a Carmen San Diego game.
Plausible.
10:33 I'm pretty sure she was an art thief or something like that. We could all Google search it, but AI ruined it so now it'll probably tell you she's the mayor of San Diego
That is the lore, sort of.
She was a world-renowned thief who stole landmarks, but she used her skills for good.
She was basically sly cooper
@@RusticRonnie can you tell me what good she does in the original series? Genuine question
literally just scroll past the AI answer bruh
@@RusticRonnie Fitting, as her game seems to be Sly Cooper as well!
more games should have out of context factoids about the location you're about to commit atrocities in
Carmen must have really bad spending habits to amass so much over the years but still need to steal.
She used to be a mysterious figure, and everyone would ask WHERE she is, or even WHEN she is (for some reason). Now, she's slumming it looking for drums.
But no one ever asks how she is
@@curtmcgirt7981that's where I thought it was going too
@@curtmcgirt7981 I'll do you one better: Why is Carmen Sandiego?
FYI:
Tokyo is still the largest city in the world. New York is down to number 49.
I hate it when the title is Carmen Sandiego, but it's about someone else instead
Love your channel Mr shoes
Everything I know about this game comes from a single joke "My name is Carmen Sandiego, guess where I am"
Welcome back to Cool Jump Gaming
The fair thing to do is to finish up to at least the first boss fight, and not skip the tutorial blurbs.
5:35 "The cool jump move can't be to open gates, right?"
(Laughs in Bloodrayne)
Where in the world is Oboeshoes? Probably on some island in Nova Scotia opening up a new trailer park.
got this for christmas one year and was so confused why Carmen Sandiego was barely in it. I remember having a pretty good time with it though
I got this game as a kid and it was maybe the first time I just totally gave up on trying to have fun with a game and and just took it as a loss.
bro thinks he’s got the rizz 😂 5:11

so thank you for making a video about this game i look forward to seeing the next video
& GN or Good Day to you
First I've seen of this - neat
Glad to hear Tony hawk is doing good 😂
I miss your streams oboe. I don't have the time but I'm really sad I can't make them in this year's series
The game seems very
Sly Cooper-esque
i swear he sounds like Sly in parts too.
@@notsosmartguy6254It is Sly
The player character animations are pretty good and smooth at least. I’ll give it that.
Wasnt this considered the worst Carmen sandiego game
I didn’t even know there was a Carmen Game I thought it was a meme joke thing back in the days.
Darking Wing Duck!
Let’s get… wait…
What game is this again?…
no joke. I come from a mormon family
back in the super early 2000s I went to the school library and printed a ton of images of Carmen Sandiego and took them home. I put them under my mattress and used them at night.
anyways, one day I came home and my mom had the images and asked why I had those. When my dad came home my parents broke my skateboard and threw away my ps2 and Dell PC.
I stopped being Mormon that day
So sorry you had to deal with that
Wait... So Carmen Sandiego is a criminal for stealing art, but Lara Croft murders the heck out of a ton of people to basically steal stuff and gets to be the good girl?
Someone should tell these two completely unrelated development teams from 20 years ago they aren't on the same page 🤯

Remember the days when everyone was required by law to wear baggy, saggy pants?
Ahh, 2000s culture...
I don't miss it.
Fascinating
Why is the bad guy from The Incredibles in this?
Carmen sandiego more like Carmen Sanfranciso
If you squint, it kinda looks like Hitman.
It’s coming back and enhanced on the ps5 pro…. I just saw it yesterday and oboe didn’t disappoint me here 😂 😭
Is the boy we play the same voice actor of sky cooper!?!?!?
On my god sky cooper is in the same u inverse as Carman SanDiego!
Kevin Miller so yep
I think my mom project managed a Carmen Sandiego geography game for pc
Not sure though
Savages savages barely even humannnn
