@@fulcrum6760 At least take solace that The Day Before made a big fat 0 in terms of revenue on Steam since Steam withholds payment for at least a month.
I still love how CoD devs were claiming MW3 wasn't an overblown DLC, only to wait for release for players to receive warnings that in order to play MW3 you needed to have MW2 installed.
its actually technically the other way around, you have to install MW3 to play MW2 and have to install 50+ gb updates every time MW3 gets an update even though MW2 doesn't change at all. That being said, I don't think MW3 belongs in the same group as the other games in this video, The campaign was bad but the rest of the package is still enjoyable, without a doubt its a DLC/Major Update that they had that gall to charge full price for, but its an improvement on MW2(except campaign) and MW2 wasn't a bad game.
@@blackbeltbap No, that one actually took place. To be precise, on release on PS5 many players who downloaded the MW3 were receiving an error where the console was asking for MW2 disk to run. Also on the same console achievements for MW3 were under DLC section of MW2.

Thanks a bunch! They need to put this info in the video description. Ain't nobody got an hour and a half to listen to Joe bitch about games that I *don't* want to play.
As a game developer graduate student who’s having doubts with my own ability to develop my dream fantasy game…..that King Kong shit really gave me a huge boost of confidence 😂
As long as you believe in what you’re doing & you continue to evolve your craft, you won’t go down that route!! I wish you the best of luck my friend!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Keep developing great Indie games, Triple AAA games are mostly asleep at the wheel now. Thank God for Helldivers 2 and Halo Infinite post Season 5 (although it's still a failure by the standards of Halo).
I thought that Redfall was truly the worst. It embodies everything that I hate about modern gaming, but I was SO wrong once I played Rise of Kong. Kong is so broken that I beat it on accident in less than two hours.
Yea I saw that at 5 initially thinking redfall and gollum would be 2 and 1 but I obviously missed a lot of game this year lol. I knew day before was bad but holy crap. Lol
yup.. and yet we had some full on clowns saying "2023 was one of the best years for gaming!". gonna quote asmongold here: "you like eating shit? well go on and keep eating it"
I agree, 0/10 is almost a non-existent concept due to what it technically represents, but The Day Before is the perfect example of what a 0/10 would look like.
Redfall is the worst to me simply due to the price and how it wants to be taken seriously. At least Gollum and Kong can be dismissed as cheap shovelware
Forspoken is a great example of why every adventure game doesn't need to have an open world. Because when you fill it with nothing that matters or just nothing at all, it looks even worse.
It had potential, but I personally believe the writing & dialogue were the main issues with it. With better writing & character lines, it could've been something special, but unfortunately it wasn't.😮💨
2023 was crazy, we got the unholy trinity of gollum, kong, and walking dead destinies come out the same year as baldur’s gate 3, tears of the kingdom, and alan wake 2. What a rollercoaster for gaming
One of the best parts for "The Day Before" is that they even deleted all of their videos on their channel thinking they were smart and that the internet never forgets.
"So Bad It's Good" is much rarer in games than in films because a bad film is passive, you just watch the car crash. In a game you need motivation to actually experience the story, and bad gameplay is just bad gameplay.
It can be though, because there are many other things that can be bad about a game aside from gameplay. Take the original Resident Evil for instance. Absolutely terrible voice acting, that has become beloved in a way because of its cheesiness. But a great game overall. Desert Bus is basically the absolute shit bottom of bad gameplay, but somehow lives in some kind of bizarre adored infamy.
You cannot intentionally create "so bad it's good". That only happens when a sincere attempt to make something good goes horribly, hilariously, serendipitously wrong. If you set out with the intention of making something bad... it's just going to suck.
My favorite part of the Gollum release fiasco was how they mispelled the name of the game in the apology letter. "The Lord of Ring: Gollum." You can't make this shit up 😂
At this rate, for Madden 25, EA should just skip the development phase and just release a disc that just plays a video file on perpetual loop of EA’s CEO pointing a gun to the player saying: “There is no game, gimme all your money.
As a QA Tester who worked on Madden 25 for Madden 25th anniversary, they probably just put a new cover on it and forget to update the roster. Most bugs are marked Known Shippable.
10.) Forspoken 1:41 9.) Crime Boss: Rockay City 8:29 8.) Madden NFL 24 13:59 7.) Wanted: Dead 22:01 6.) Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III 26:43 5.) Redfall 35:11 4.) The Walking Dead: Destinies 45:56 3.) Skull Island: Rise of Kong 54:22 2.) The Lord of the Rings: Gollum 1:05:22 1.) The Day Before 1:14:00
Never played it, but I imagine the voice director of BG3 *really* knew what they were doing, whereas in Crime Boss and Wanted: Dead...I don't think there was a voice director for either of those games, which resulted in the high-school level voice acting I heard there. Just shows what kind of a passion gap a voice actor can experience between two completely different games, from someone who works with their cast to get the best possible performances out of them, to someone who just wants you to read the lines on the paper word-for-word.
When Chuck Norris yelled “Sky motherfucker” and it sounded more like a mumble…like Jesus man. That is hilariously bad voice acting. Sound like Chuck didn’t even get context cues for what the character should be feeling, they just told him to read the script and kept the first takes cause they didn’t want to pay him anymore than they needed to.
@@The1NickSkyline Go play it. I don't care if you don't like RPGs or isometric games. BG3 is one of the greatest games of all time. It transcends genre. Go play it.
Joe still using the same font and intro music for over 10 years now for some reason brings a tear to my eye 🥲 thanks for suffering these every year for our amusement, Joe.
I’ve been watching Joe for over a decade. His “Worst Games” list is by far the best thing on the internet every year. He always delivers, but every year he one-ups himself and delivers even further. Angry Joe is amazing and I’m glad to be a part the Army! 💪🏼
Nothing will ever top the day his review for Ride to hell dropped. The absolute vile, hatred, and fury that spewed forth from Joe on that day... Art. Peak Joe. A summit we shall never reach again. And that's fine, dude must be like closing in on 40. He's changed, his temperament, his attitudes, likes, as a person. I don't think any person with two neurons bumping around in their head expects him to be insanely angry and blowing his top every time one of these turds come out. But that REAL anger? That makes magic
The only reedeming character trait about Forespokens main character is that she saved her cat. Less redeeming is how she just leaves it outside the judges house and just counts on her taking care of him..
I work night shift, and was meandering about waiting for the shift to end like any other, when I look to my TH-cam and see this glorious work of art… I’m bout to enjoy the hell outta this, thanks for all your hard work Joe!
19:09 They used Captain Anderson's model from Mass Effect? "I'll tell you this, Shepard, in any fight, it's the guy who's willing to die who's gonna win that inch! Anderson out."
I don't understand what they were thinking with the Gollum game. No one reads or watches LOTR and thinks "Oh I wonder what it would be like to be Gollum"
My cat considers herself a therapy animal. She's not trained, but anytime she hears someone yell, even jokingly, she'll go up to them and let them pet her. At 57:52 Joe started yelling so loudly my cat got concerned and started looking around so she could comfort him 😭😭
Wow, one of my cats also thinks she’s a therapy cat. She comes running over when she senses I’m not having a good time she’ll comfort me. I was crying once and she did her utmost to make me feel better. And it almost always works really well.
Eh, #10 is overhated imo. And #1 was obvious, because as bad as Gollum was, at least it didn't actively lie to you. It was exactly what was to be expected. It's bad, but it was a game that released with no extra baggage (save for LoTR fans being on suicide watch). The Day Before was a scam from start to finish. A bad game is one thing, but a bad game that was a scam is infinitely worse.
@@JABRIEL251 I agree number 10 is overheated. Forspoken had good combat and great parkour. Joe did not fight enough or level up his magic or armor enough. That is why he was having trouble with the combat
@@jadedheartsz I didn't follow Myth Force for a while and it looked like a decent game. What is wrong with it? Also that Hellboy game with like ... 4 enemy types? Yeah I knew it was soulless from the very first trailers.
I just wanna say that I f***ing love you so much, man. Been following you for what... 10? 12 years? You're still real, you're still you... and even though I sometimes don't agree with your opinion, it doesn't matter. You stay true to yourself and your videos are entertaining. These top 10 videos "of the year" are a tradition at this point. I love them to death and I'm just so happy you are still making them. Happy 2024 to you and the team!
God I had already forgotten about the day before. When Gollum was number 2 I thought "wait, so what the hell is number 1 then!" The day before was so bad it got uninstalled from my mind, it's so bad when Joe showed the title it took me a few seconds to know what he was talking about.
Everybody "its 1am" Me in New Zealand, 9pm. The absolute perfect time to sit down and watch a long video while I play games because the children are about to go to bed😂
14:30 It's so sad to see him be hyped about digital lootboxes while trying his best to snap out of the trance and quit It's legit like watching a drug addict ALMOST snap out of the high
Yes... Yes indeed it was. They probably went through their old stuff and just jammed everything they could salvage. I bet they even have like "black dudes" asset folder and they just copied into the Madden project lmao
angry joe and his crew mainly oj have been a fun part of my life since i was a teenager in the early 2,000's of youtube, one of the oldest channels still going strong with a dedicated fanbase, that just feels good to see man

Going in: Really, its just a matter of which is worse, Kong or Gollem. Later: Wait. Kong is 3? Gollem is 2!? What on Earth did I forget existed!?!? Number 1: My God... That's right... THAT existed...
Joe is actually being way too nice for some of the games which he played with his friends because even dogshit games can be bearable when you play them with your friend's but most people played those games alone so imagine how miserable that must've been 😂
Just realized Joe is the only TH-camr that I have been consistently watching and enjoying for 10+ years now, Joe, other Joe and Alex are TH-cam legends in my book
1:15:57 i keep playing that moment at x2 speed, it's just too good lmao, just the way it cuts away at *just* the right time from his panicked screaming
I have much gratefulness for this video, Largely Displeased Joseph, as my commute to High School was quite long and unpleasant, so viewing such an article of perfected rage shall balance the displeasure with much better feelings.
I love when Joe uses clips from Maximilian and AVGN/Cinemassacre. Is the closest we´ll ever be to get a colab between those content creators. And still can´t believe there´s a game worse than Gollum!!!
Taking a moment to appreciate Other Joe commitment in AJS, From eating crayons to playing Gollum, thank you for giving us great content over the last 10 years!
This is honestly my yearly comeback to what i define the best of TH-cam Series that has been going on for well over a decade. Cheers to this channel and here's to more decades to come AngryJoe. 🥂
🔥🔥 Grabbin’ popcorn for this one! 90 MINUTES? YEAHH!!!! Also I watched your Kong playthrough almost in it’s entirely and laughed until I was tearing up!!
I’m not entirely unconvinced that game mill games are just completely AI generated. Like that would honestly make more sense than actual people making those.
Technically, GameMill published at least 7 games this year that would have been considered awful on this list. They released a terrible Avatar: The Last Airbender game *and* a NASCAR arcade racer. Shockingly, the only real outlier in their 2023 line-up was Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2. Go figure that one out.
Well tbf they did well on the first NASB so makes sense 2 be better than the other games they’ve made. (though probably cause they actually have a staff for that, that actually cares about making a good game)
58:12 Not only are they charging for lazy re-shaded skins for Skull Island Rise of Kong, they didn't even spell 'battle-scarred" right. They put 'scared'. He doesn't have scars, he's just afraid.
I totally forgot about the number 10 game. I remember when people were calling GameStop to buy the special edition of the game and they were told, we have to destroy them.
Redfall coulda been cool as like a monster hunter type game. Like where you and your party prepare for battle then go to different areas to find and tackle different big name vampires
The shill guy yelling about how good the Madden animations are was so depressing.
Ya...you want to be angry at him but you also know there's a genuine gamer in there screaming for help.

As a QA Tester who worked on Madden 25 for Madden 25th anniversary, they probably just put a new cover on it and forget to update the roster. Most bugs are marked Known Shippable.
pretty sure they been skipping development for a while now😂
“How did you get stuck!?!?” “GORILLA GLUE” 🤣😂🤣😂
Solid Gold, AJ should've caught fire from that retort, lol
this was a hilarious pun indeed
Alex is so great
It frustrates me to no end that the most wealthy AAA companies now just make games that are casinos. How greedy can you be?
It's bc it makes them billions with 0 effort.
That's capitalism, baby!
EA: My greed is unmeasureable
Very.
And that is the beauty of capitalism folks!

Man, that Crime Boss voice acting... and then you see Neil Newbon and anyone from Baldur's Gate... Holy hell what a farce...
Never played it, but I imagine the voice director of BG3 *really* knew what they were doing, whereas in Crime Boss and Wanted: Dead...I don't think there was a voice director for either of those games, which resulted in the high-school level voice acting I heard there. Just shows what kind of a passion gap a voice actor can experience between two completely different games, from someone who works with their cast to get the best possible performances out of them, to someone who just wants you to read the lines on the paper word-for-word.
@@The1NickSkyline Pretty fair, I can totally imagine those actors not even having the scene they're acting for visible on a screen in front of them.
When Chuck Norris yelled “Sky motherfucker” and it sounded more like a mumble…like Jesus man. That is hilariously bad voice acting. Sound like Chuck didn’t even get context cues for what the character should be feeling, they just told him to read the script and kept the first takes cause they didn’t want to pay him anymore than they needed to.
*farce
@@The1NickSkyline Go play it. I don't care if you don't like RPGs or isometric games. BG3 is one of the greatest games of all time. It transcends genre. Go play it.
Joe still using the same font and intro music for over 10 years now for some reason brings a tear to my eye 🥲 thanks for suffering these every year for our amusement, Joe.
I’ve been watching Joe for over a decade. His “Worst Games” list is by far the best thing on the internet every year. He always delivers, but every year he one-ups himself and delivers even further. Angry Joe is amazing and I’m glad to be a part the Army! 💪🏼
Now onwards to Madden 2025 reveal in the summer!🤣 👉
Nothing will ever top the day his review for Ride to hell dropped. The absolute vile, hatred, and fury that spewed forth from Joe on that day... Art. Peak Joe.
A summit we shall never reach again. And that's fine, dude must be like closing in on 40. He's changed, his temperament, his attitudes, likes, as a person. I don't think any person with two neurons bumping around in their head expects him to be insanely angry and blowing his top every time one of these turds come out.
But that REAL anger? That makes magic
@@phalanx8437 bahahahaha dude I still go back to that one every year hahaha this sec scene has me in tears
@@phalanx8437That's probably where Angry Joe peaked. My personal favorite among his content.
The only reedeming character trait about Forespokens main character is that she saved her cat. Less redeeming is how she just leaves it outside the judges house and just counts on her taking care of him..
I work night shift, and was meandering about waiting for the shift to end like any other, when I look to my TH-cam and see this glorious work of art… I’m bout to enjoy the hell outta this, thanks for all your hard work Joe!
Same, lol
God speed fellow night dweller
Exactly how i felt lol
Exactly same gave me something to look forward to
Got so much respect for night shift workers
19:09 They used Captain Anderson's model from Mass Effect? "I'll tell you this, Shepard, in any fight, it's the guy who's willing to die who's gonna win that inch! Anderson out."
LMAOO i'm replaying Mass Effect currently i almost spit my drink out
I was about to comment the same, yes he is from mass effect
Not in warhammer lol
Holy shit
EA owns Mass Effect.....it's their model\terrible logic but i could see that being the case! fukk EA!
"Its 1am" not in Australia boys its 6pm lets go joe send it

At 01:01:42 that slightly bigger crab is larger than Kong himself. Wtf?
The place should be called Giants Island.
“Is that dead crab following me?”
I don’t think that series of words has ever been said in the history of humanity 😂
Well, now the next person can't say that :)
Probably has. Might've involved a very traumatized marooned sailor or something.
@@baroquerookbr3214 or a Dwarf Fortress player

Feels like a bug that would happen to a mudcrab in Skyrim lol
You were probably the second person to say that
Gollum's one "redeeming quality" is that it is directly responsible for giving us *OJollum*
😂❤ "We loves it!"
I don't understand what they were thinking with the Gollum game. No one reads or watches LOTR and thinks "Oh I wonder what it would be like to be Gollum"
No one except me.
I know hes not a goblin but he fits my goblin rp
@@UncleDave69 You should try Styx Master of Shadows and/or Shards of Darkness. You'll get what you're looking for
It's Lord of the Rings.
Some of its fans are obsessed over everything, for reasons I very much do not understand.
it would be like playing Madden for the RP aspect...or Tetris for the story
OJ giving back the controller without a word at 54:40 after getting stuck...
Pure golden moment!
The way he looks off to the side like a child who broke his toy after his father told him to be careful with it.
@@SomeGuy-yl1bx I just noticed Alex peeking over right after that, hiding a smile...
Angry Joe's yearly lists should always be treated as yearly blockbusters
Angry Joe: How did you get your toe stuck in a fucking rock, Joe?!
Alex: Gorilla Glue.
Hahahaha! Talk about fucking quick!
That was really good lol
Alex has quick wits for sure 😂
I didn't even hear him say that. 😂😂😂
The fact something was worse than Gollum is amazing...
I feel so sorry for Joe as a DC fan, since this year already has started with the Suicide Squad failure😂😂
57:33 I don’t know what’s worse:
Selling Blue, or having the actual audacity to sell Sepia and TWO separate B+W filters as DLC.
This is why I don't play triple A games anymore, because it stands for triple "ass"
Triple $$$ games then.
Triple A$$, yes. @@DubberRucks
literally Amnesia The Bunker didn't get any rewards and that was one of the most polished games of 2023.
Any way I can thumb this comment up more?
Well you're in luck, skull and bones is a "AAAA" game according to Ubisoft 😂
My cat considers herself a therapy animal. She's not trained, but anytime she hears someone yell, even jokingly, she'll go up to them and let them pet her. At 57:52 Joe started yelling so loudly my cat got concerned and started looking around so she could comfort him 😭😭
Wow, one of my cats also thinks she’s a therapy cat. She comes running over when she senses I’m not having a good time she’ll comfort me. I was crying once and she did her utmost to make me feel better. And it almost always works really well.
Aww
Who knew not all cats were evil
That’s a good cat.
Good girl!
Who says cats can't run up to you the same way dogs can?
Alex gorilla glue (55:12) comment is beyond legendary..OJ cracking up and the look of defeat on Joes face haha, priceless!
The king kong clip might be the funniest.
"How did you get your toes stuck in a fucking rock"
gorilla glue 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This
Other Joe trying his damnedest to not laugh is what had me dying. X33😂😂😂
I woke up my wife laughing at that joke. How quick to the mark he was with that joke 😂😂
Bro OJ passing the controller back and Alex going Gorilla glue KILLED me 😂😂😂😂
For real 😂
Oh my god.. This part of the video had me on the ground laughing lol.. 10/10 for this clip.
Best part of the video imo.
He has a talent for breaking games 😂
55:05 😂😂😂😂
You know it’s bad when Forspoken starts at only 10.
Redfall made it to number 5?
Wait!, Gollum is only at number 2!!!?
WHAT COULD BE WORSE!!!??
Eh, #10 is overhated imo. And #1 was obvious, because as bad as Gollum was, at least it didn't actively lie to you. It was exactly what was to be expected. It's bad, but it was a game that released with no extra baggage (save for LoTR fans being on suicide watch). The Day Before was a scam from start to finish. A bad game is one thing, but a bad game that was a scam is infinitely worse.
@@JABRIEL251 I agree number 10 is overheated. Forspoken had good combat and great parkour. Joe did not fight enough or level up his magic or armor enough. That is why he was having trouble with the combat
nah Forspoken ain't that bad Joe was overreacting, Mythforce and that crappy Hellboy game were FAR worse
@@jadedheartsz I didn't follow Myth Force for a while and it looked like a decent game. What is wrong with it?
Also that Hellboy game with like ... 4 enemy types? Yeah I knew it was soulless from the very first trailers.
@@beyond-the-soul8651All it needs to do is to just fix up Frey’s garbage personality
I think 1/10 for "The day before" is extremely generous that pile of wasted disk space should have been a 0/10
I literally said "what could be worse than gollum?" completely confused and then immediately went "oh" 😂 god what a weird year in gaming.
Arguably the highest highs since 2018, but its lows were abysmal
Gollum was indeed number 2. A big fat steaming number 2! 💩
same! i totally forgot the day before actually released! and IMMEDIATELY went away, lol.
53:46 "Take that, MotherTrucker!"
Considering Gamemill were the ones that published Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing, that feels fitting.
Oh, man. Now I have to go watch the AVGN episode again.
They made Big Rigs?! Now it all makes sense!
I just wanna say that I f***ing love you so much, man. Been following you for what... 10? 12 years? You're still real, you're still you... and even though I sometimes don't agree with your opinion, it doesn't matter. You stay true to yourself and your videos are entertaining.
These top 10 videos "of the year" are a tradition at this point. I love them to death and I'm just so happy you are still making them.
Happy 2024 to you and the team!
At 19:08 MADDEN used Captain Anderson's face from Mass Effect and it haunts me seeing him like this.
God I had already forgotten about the day before. When Gollum was number 2 I thought "wait, so what the hell is number 1 then!" The day before was so bad it got uninstalled from my mind, it's so bad when Joe showed the title it took me a few seconds to know what he was talking about.
I thought it was going to be "Silent Hill: Ascension".
@@The1NickSkyline I didn't even know that was a thing, but based on a quick google I know why you would think that.
@@The1NickSkyline I wonder why was that not on the list. Probably Joe doesn't even consider it a game?
Everybody "its 1am"

14:30 It's so sad to see him be hyped about digital lootboxes while trying his best to snap out of the trance and quit

@@alwaysdisputin9930 I am glad you are seeking help
It's so hard to believe that some people are like this but then I look back at my own regrettable purchases and it's just makes it even sadder.

"It better not be this bad this year"
Rocksteady: hold my always online beer..

Was that Madden 24 face Captain Anderson from Mass Effect? The one they stopped and laughed at? LMAO
Both games are EA, so it's possible.
I thought I was the only one who thought that.
Holy shit. You are right
Yes... Yes indeed it was. They probably went through their old stuff and just jammed everything they could salvage. I bet they even have like "black dudes" asset folder and they just copied into the Madden project lmao
I KNEW he looked familiar!
angry joe and his crew mainly oj have been a fun part of my life since i was a teenager in the early 2,000's of youtube, one of the oldest channels still going strong with a dedicated fanbase, that just feels good to see man

Later: Wait. Kong is 3? Gollem is 2!? What on Earth did I forget existed!?!?
Number 1: My God... That's right... THAT existed...
Yes. It did. For money at one point. It got me too! 🤣
'Shut the fuck up Herzog.' This made my day. It should be a meme.
Joe is actually being way too nice for some of the games which he played with his friends because even dogshit games can be bearable when you play them with your friend's but most people played those games alone so imagine how miserable that must've been 😂
Yep, imagine barely being able to afford a game at new item prices, and then being alone, losing time and money you won't get back.
I play games for 30 years, bugs are part of life, but the one in Day After making players gigantic is HANDS DOWN the funniest shit I've seen.
Also one of the most terrifying glitches I'll ever see in a 3D game.
Just realized Joe is the only TH-camr that I have been consistently watching and enjoying for 10+ years now, Joe, other Joe and Alex are TH-cam legends in my book
1:15:57 i keep playing that moment at x2 speed, it's just too good lmao, just the way it cuts away at *just* the right time from his panicked screaming
You really think I'll watch some guy be angry for 90 minutes?
You're damn right
Fuck yeah! Gladly lol
Angry? About bad videogames? I'm in! 🤣
19:05 I'm weeeaaaakkkk! I'm crying. Thanks for another yearly wrap up guys.
This got me weak too 😂

Angry Joe came out with a whole-ass movie about the Top 10 Worst games of 2023. And we love it.
I caught the " super easy barely an inconvenience" line. Man of culture 😂
I have much gratefulness for this video, Largely Displeased Joseph, as my commute to High School was quite long and unpleasant, so viewing such an article of perfected rage shall balance the displeasure with much better feelings.
I love when Joe uses clips from Maximilian and AVGN/Cinemassacre. Is the closest we´ll ever be to get a colab between those content creators. And still can´t believe there´s a game worse than Gollum!!!
That was great. I was like wait, gollum is 2?! Then it clicked. 🤣
Taking a moment to appreciate Other Joe commitment in AJS, From eating crayons to playing Gollum, thank you for giving us great content over the last 10 years!
He eats crayons anyway so it was no real sacrifice.
Its a bummer they dont do many game reviews anymore. Their tv/movie podcast chats are a lot less work and effort so they do that a lot more.
Those crayons were colored chocolates made by Alex
This is honestly my yearly comeback to what i define the best of TH-cam Series that has been going on for well over a decade. Cheers to this channel and here's to more decades to come AngryJoe. 🥂
About 1 and 30 minutes, gotta get my popcorn, it’s about to be good
Joe is secretly an evil genius for releasing the most wanted video of the year late at night, when people are on their phones.
🔥🔥 Grabbin’ popcorn for this one! 90 MINUTES? YEAHH!!!! Also I watched your Kong playthrough almost in it’s entirely and laughed until I was tearing up!!
I’m not entirely unconvinced that game mill games are just completely AI generated. Like that would honestly make more sense than actual people making those.
Technically, GameMill published at least 7 games this year that would have been considered awful on this list. They released a terrible Avatar: The Last Airbender game *and* a NASCAR arcade racer. Shockingly, the only real outlier in their 2023 line-up was Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2. Go figure that one out.
Joe could just make a annual game mill worst game list!
Pffff, i forgot about that
@@776football "These are the top 10 Gamemill games of the year"
Well tbf they did well on the first NASB so makes sense 2 be better than the other games they’ve made. (though probably cause they actually have a staff for that, that actually cares about making a good game)
"It's like an empty club" LOL. Got those vibes too. It gave me PTSD remembering some awful nights in my 20s.
Watching the Madden 24 clips at 19:23 EA definitely reused Mass Effect Captain Anderson's face model!
I KNEW I RECOGNISED THE FACE. They really just reusing faces from their catalog of games now.
Omg you are right.
That ninja at 25:30 sure gave me some Black Noir vibes...
58:12 Not only are they charging for lazy re-shaded skins for Skull Island Rise of Kong, they didn't even spell 'battle-scarred" right. They put 'scared'. He doesn't have scars, he's just afraid.
Wouldn't YOU be if you woke up in a game like that? 🤔 😂
@@DubberRucksHey so you’re finally awake.
What killed The Day Before was that devs hadn't figured out how to launch PIE or 'play in editor'.

I mean MMG hasn't said a word about joe so there's no beef
@@erregete Wait a minute, is that guy even real or a marketing stunt by EA?
I totally forgot about the number 10 game.
I remember when people were calling GameStop to buy the special edition of the game and they were told, we have to destroy them.
This the one we’ve all been waiting for boys. 👏
Redfall coulda been cool as like a monster hunter type game. Like where you and your party prepare for battle then go to different areas to find and tackle different big name vampires
