  • Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow video game review of Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars for the Nintendo Wii from Red Fly Studios and GameCock Media Group. Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars dresses a standard 3D platform game with a slimy dose of 1950s B-reel campiness and plenty of penicillin.

    Fun fact, this game was actually advertised in High Times magazine and other marijuana related publications.

      The company seems to have dropped off the radar, though I've played this game 7 times all the way to the end,and I plan to do so many more times. Also if you liked this series is recommend de blob and epic mickey

    there is a difference between criticism and downright bashing someone, go for criticism, give a reason why the reviewer sucks because he actually doesnt, his review was brilliant, he told people why we should get this game, he was very informative, very word smart, somewhat funny but not too much, and he even gave suggestions on WHO should get this game and who shouldent, it was solid as can ever be.

    I actually forgot this game came out. I remember being really excited for it when I was younger, but I never got the chance to play it. I'm glad to know Las Claypool's work on the soundtrack didn't go to waste, tho, and I'll definitely pick this up when I get the chance.

    I really like how original the concept of this game and I would hate an idea this unique to just die off so I really hope they make a sequel with more original and less systematic game-play mechanics. Which is a really naive for me to imagine because this game is about 5 years old.

    @samuel2622 10 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    I hate when people say that a game came a decade too late because it's a platformer. It's still many people's favourite genre. Developers stopped making them but it doesn't mean that it's boring to play.

    • @Tassooow
      @Tassooow 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Stopped making them? You certainly don't own Nintendo consoles, mainly the 3DS. I, as a fan of platformers, have a blast with them on 3DS Wii/WiiU

    • @samuel2622
      @samuel2622 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Tasso Luz Actually, I own all of these consoles. I just think that games like : Scaler, Ty, Super Mario Sunshine, Ape Escape, Spyro, Jak, Banjo Kazooie, and Mushroom Men are becoming really rare today. I like my new consoles but I really miss those games. If you can think of games that play like these platformers I would be really happy to play them.

    • @Tassooow
      @Tassooow 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Samuel Lapointe Spyro games are on wii, also crash games, sonic colors, mario galaxy (wich is better than sunshine IMO), klonoa games, de blob 1 and 2, rabbits go home (wich is a collecting game, like banjo), okami (wich is like zelda, but with platforming),epic mickey 1 and 2, PoP forgotten sands, marble saga.
      There are probably others but these are the ones I tried.

    • @samuel2622
      @samuel2622 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Tasso Luz Thanks for the titles. There are a couple that I will try. Rabbids Go Home... ?? I thought it was another party game. Have you tried Cave Story 3D? My absolute favourite game of the current gen.

    • @Tassooow
      @Tassooow 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      yeah it is a platformer, also I have, i loved the first cave story, it's so good. beware the red flowers dude xD

  • @stevenatorbensonica4653

    I like this as much as ocarina of time, every 3D mario game,and every 3D gta game,and i truely mean that.
    the atmosphere is so wied, quirky, mysterious, exciting, and chill at the same time,so is the art style.
    ive played this game all the way through 6 TIMES. And i might do it again one day

      @@stevenatorbensonica4653 I feel the exact same way about this game. Ever since its release I've always wanted to play it. I just remember seeing the trailer and loved every second of it. The atmosphere, the music, the general cozy vibe of the atmosphere just like you mentioned.
      I bought a used Wii like 3 years ago and I also manage to finally pick up a copy of this game - but believe it or not I have not played more than 1-2 hours. I've been waiting for the right time to enjoy it lol, it probably sounds weird but whatever man xD
      It truly is quite the hidden gem and I am def planning on streaming this on my twitch channel for the first time in a near future!

    You're trying too hard to sound intelligent. Not only in this video. You're arguments and your way of getting the viewer into the game are alright but then you just take an unnecessary step into desperation and force something that hasn't a sound balance.
