Ha, this is one reason why I wait a year before buying a new console. I have a friend who will pre-order a new console as soon as hears about it and for 6 to 8 months after launch all I'll hear is "Man, I love my new [insert console here], but there only 4-5 good games and the rest are janky as [expletive]." He doesn't know that me and the rest of our friends have turned this into a drinking game.
@@Fakan Too right, my friend was one of the poor [expletive] whose Xbox 360 power unit caught fire. It was sorta fine (he put the fire out almost immediately), but his carpet was [expletive], however, Microsoft paid for damages... When his dad threatened to sue. I bought mine a year later when the Xbox 360 mostly just worked, and didn't set your house on fire when left on standby.
I’d wait until I have a good line up of games, whether it takes a year or not. I’m still pre ordering the ps5 because several of the lineups look interesting. And correct me if I’m wrong, but it’s supposed to be backwards compatible, but yeah, if there were no interesting games I’d wait
@@ladigoos8835 From what I understand, yeah, it's going to be backward compatible, high-end too, supposedly it will switch hardware modes instead of using a software emulator to run older games better. Good thing too, the only reason Xbox players have to be jealous of the Playstation players is the better lineup of exclusive games, my youngest brother is so smug about that fact he gets to play God of War or The Last of Us. I've only played 30 minutes of God of War, but it was enough to make consider skipping a holiday that year to buy a PS4 (my girlfriend shot that idea down so hard, I'm still feeling the recoil, fair enough I was a complete [expletive] and a moron for even suggesting it).

The street fighter movie is honestly one of my favourite films. It's terrible in every way but Raul Julia saves it in the most glorious fashion to make it an absolute treasure showing how everything can go wrong just right.
@@DFloyd84 actually with a whimper, he knew the movie was a turd but accepted the role because his son was a fan of Street Fighter, the guy did take the job seriously as hell, you can see on his impersonation of M. Bison manerisms of Hitlter and many other real life people. Sadly one of the best actors of his generation left us with a not so brilliant movie.
For you, the day Raul Julia appeared in Street Fighter because his son asked him to was the greatest video game movie performance of all time. But for him, it was Tuesday.
I remember always getting stuck in giant wooden boxes in the scarey warehouse place in the first Red Steel, and that's when I abandoned it. I mean, literally falling inside the box and getting stuck in it, every single time. Shame, I was rather enjoying it until then.
Why they dis blanka like that how else is a kid that was lost in the Brazilian jungle that mutated from getting eletric eels and how ever else he got his green skin
Its rather unsettling how casual he was at mentioning it, like either it wasn't a big deal or it wasn't the first time. Granted I haven't played this game and Didn't even know it existed until watching this video but already I find Egbert to be a interesting character, even if its for questionable reasons.
Now I’m imagining “But, I play this game to get the experience?” “Sir, this is not an entry level game, you need at least three levels of experience from any other franchise to work here” “Oh”
Agreed. The gun controls were perfectly fine when I played. I hardly had any issues with them. The sword controls were clunky but I managed fine. There was just that one combo that I had a hard time pulling off. Either way, it paved the way for Red Steel 2 and that game is amazing.
I feel like there would've been more Kinect entries, but that would involve people actually wanting to play the Kinect in the first place. For goodness sake, they made it mandatory for the Xbox One at launch. You can hire David Tennant all you want, I'm not gonna play Kinect Adventures.
I worked in an after school service for underprivileged youth for a while when I was in school and never in the time that I worked there did a single kid play on the donated Kinect. I can't blame them.
The Kinnect was my first console, as in my dad bought an Xbox 360 but only purchased Kinnect games for them. It was all a scheme to get me and my brother to exercise more, and to be fair, it did work.
Including it with Xbox One means they didn't learn anything from 360. Please tell me the new Xbox does NOT have Kinect too. If it does, I might just stay with Switch, PS5, and my computer.
@@LadyOnikara the opposite, the new xbone doesn't support the kinect at all.

The problem is that only certain control actions translate well on the kinect, and rather than focusing on those it was used in ways that made it extremely clunky.

Which is required by most titles.

I feel fart jokes are basically the children's version of "edgy humour". Part of the appear is supposed to lie with the "rebellious" or "forbidden fruit" value, but the lack of wit possessed by the person deploying the joke stops it from being actually funny.
I think it's less that adults think it's funny for children, and more that adults think that children will laugh at anything, so might as well just go lowest common denominator. Although there are adults who think that's funny, so maybe it's just a fundamental difference in mindset.

Whew.. Pseudo intellectuals debating humor on TH-cam. Well it's better than race and politics I suppose. Carry on
I was wondering why this list didn't include Oscar. Launch title for the CD32 and a 90s platformer so forgettable it doesn't even feature on the Oxbox list videos about forgotten 90s platformers. Then I realised that any game launched on a console that was directly competing with the Atari Jaguar and Trevor McFur could never make the cut.
I enjoyed it at the time myself, but I can't play it at all anymore. Though I still think the multiplayer mode where everyone got secret instructions through their Wii remote speaker is a pretty cool concept nobody's really done in any fashion since.
I was bracing for Red Steel to be on this list. In my experience, it's an acquired taste, but its jankiness helped me adjust better to other FPS games on the Wii, which refined the meaning of pointer controls in that genre. There are certainly worse launch titles for that system.
"Thus singlhandedly killing off the tradition of using the number of bits a console has as shorthand for how powerful it is" Not true. We use teraflops now
Maybe it was because I was young but I remember LOVING Red Steel. The multiplayer was so fun. I can probably guarantee it was because I was young but it still brings back good memories
2:30 OK, the game looks like crap, but having the exposition delivered by someone reading a storybook, complete with silly voices, sounds pretty charming and appropriate.
@@xandertrejo It's like with FFX-2. I keep thinking it has more voice work than it does. It has awesome voiced cinematics, but.. those and not normal gameplay.
@@hugofontes5708 seems pretty obvious my point is gay dudes don't like the movie because they don't like fine honies in spandex... Whyask stupid questions
You know, I played Red Steel 2, the launch title for Wii Motion+. Some of the controls were still a bit clunky, but you could switch between sword and gun at will, and the story wasn't bad. Also, the controls were only really ever any bad if you were trying to use your special sword abilities, such as the "dragon", which was pretty much an air cannon, "eagle", which launched enemies into the air(and supposedly let you follow them for aerial combat, though I never could), or "bear", where you punched the ground to cause a small earthquake, and was pretty much the only way to beat the Katakara heavy gunners, who had miniguns with small blast shields, so you had to somehow get behind them, primarily by making them lose their balance with the Bear, and just running around them while they struggled to pick their gun back up. The other two abilities were the "Cobra", which was essentially a mark-and-execute with your gun, and the "Tiger", which let you do a really good block. The normal sword block just blocked bullets. The Tiger deflected them back at the shooter, or if it was a melee fighter, staggered them, which let you do an instant finisher. The Cobra and Tiger, however, were reliably usuable.
And was a very nice fighting game. The problem is that most of this channel's editors were too young to know or play it, or weren't even born when it was released!
@@MsCunningLinguistic I see, I'm not the only one who wondered what it would be like to date their best friend. Only difference is, when I asked my best friend, she straight up said she's not interested, but in the nicest way possible. Nothing new for me, I mean pretty much EVERY girl on earth isn't interested anyways, and they never have been, even when I was a kid i knew it. I don't know why i keep trying, honestly. But I'm sure you'd succeed. I don't know what success looks like. But I'm not stupid, I know why girls aren't interested.
Oh, I actually really enjoyed Tony Hawk Downhill Jam as a kid? Great for competing against my brother, and the challenge of exploring while racing to find better routes was fun.
For good reason, presumably these are the first games ever made with new hardware specs and new dev tools. To be ready in time, they either have to have a bazillion developers or pretty low quality standards akin to releasing a demo build.
@@bolieve603 Other, better games probably start development earlier, but are not completed in time for launch. Terrible launch titles are either crap because they rushed to release at launch (in which case they could have been good if given more time to work with the new specs), or they were the sort of game that would always have been rushed to completion and half-assed on a pathetic budget-- looking at you Shrek the game.
My brother had Red Steel on the Wii, and I thought it looked good. Part of the allure, though, might have been that I was too young to be allowed near it and other than occasional glimpses my main interaction was playing with the laser sight built in to the gratuitously pointless pistol shaped wiimote holders we had
love that "science rocks" t-shirt friend looking very uncomfortable in the background of that fighting game commercial. why is he even in the shot laksjf
In these troubling times, that darth vader joke at 15:42 reminded me of his most famous quote. “I find your lack of TP disturbing.” Darth, a long time ago. Probably
15:50 - okay, it was sh*t. Still, I’m kinda impressed they had 64-bit machines of ANY sort back in 1993. 17:00 - I’d be willing to believe the 1990s are to blame for the issues, because the CPUs and memory things (be it the RAM or how much info could be shoved on discs or in the cartridge) just MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN READY to do stuff in 64-bit.
The closest the Jaguar came to being 64-bit was the memory bus; the two coprocessors that shared it were only 32-bit(for further fun, the Jaguar didn't come out on top even by this measure, with the Saturn going to 112-bit by Atari's "math").
For the ones that dont know, Battle Arena Toshiden, was pretty much the prototype of the Soul Edge/Calibur Series(in some ways, it got all the Don'ts you should Avoid, and got a Few things right)
"What will be the worst launch title of the upcoming console generation?" The only launch titles I even know about are Halo, Gears, and The Last of Us. All of those are already established and massively popular franchises, and 2 of them are essentially ports from the previous gen. I don't know if all launch titles have been announced yet, but I would love to see a list as you guys are wont to do.
As much as I hate most movie tie in games there is one that I love and I am certain that this is the best movie tie in game ever (drum roll please) THE PUNISHER game
Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game isn't that bad! (especially compared to the original arcade version). And the movie it's based on was pretty good, too!
Ooh! I had an idea for a list. Most amusing/ridiculous incantations for spells/powers. My vote is for Rita Mordio from Tales of Vesperia. When you cast her strongest spell, she has a long, very anime style incantation. However, when in Limit Break mode, it shortens to "Blah blah blah. Tidal Wave!" followedby a massive whirlpool. I'm sure there's more, but I'm not your List McGuffin, just a fan with a suggestion. Besides, others likely have their favourites.
But have you ever actually PLAYED it before, or the Switch version, or the sequel? Or the 3DS version? The one that plays like an Ace Attorney game? Where Andy kicks you in the face, and it's like an Ace Attorney game, (if it were a JRPG), and during the game, slams his desk constantly, and tells you to bury the Kinect and any ads in a lead-lined box.
we need a "7 launch titles that would've been better if the hardware they relied on hadn't experienced decreased performance capabilities due to the hardware developers cutting corners"
Honorable mention goes to Lair. This PS3 game was hyped up an announced as a launch title, which demonstrated both the graphical power of the PS3 and the possibilities of the Sixaxis motion controls. However, it got delayed multiple times and released a year after the PS3s launch. Even with a year of extra development, it is clear the creators could not figure out how to make motion control based dragon steering at all functional.
Xbox Marketing Director: We should get Christian Slater to make a commerical for our new Kinect fighting game. Phil Spencer: We have Christian Slater at home. Christian Slater at home:
As a person who owned both a Xbox 360 and a Kinect, I can say that the only game I really played on that thing was Kinect Adventures, which was actually kinda fun tbh. Otherwise, it kinda just sat there collecting dust.
Considering you made me remeber it a few weeks ago, I'm suprised you didn't put Fusion Frenzy on the list. It was sort of like if someone made a gritty reboot of Mario Party without including any Nintendo IP's.
11:04 there was also a game called conduit which was I guess supposed to be Nintendo's answer to halo and call of duty though it did have an interesting premise and from what me and my brother played was pretty good
Xbox Kinect seems a lot like Nintendo Wii, if I wanted to movie around I'd just go outside. I suppose they now seem like a great way to exercise with the quarantine if you don't have a workout bike
I'm gonna be honest, I loved red steel until I got stuck on a sword fight because the sword fights were garbage & one of the required moves you need to do wouldn't work.
I had the original Xbox, and multiple of its launch titles, including shrek. It was ok, i dont think it was bad enough to be launched into the sun, but it wasnt good. The best launch title, and one i wish would be remastered for current gen consoles with functional online play, is Whacked! It was actually amazingly fun. One of my favorites from the og xbox, along with DaH, crash n burn, and voodoo vince (which has been remastered, try it if you have the ability to, one of the best 3D platformers)
You asked just what was Toshinden. Battle Arena Toshinden was a 3D fighting game with characters who each used a specific weapon (a club, a sword, claws etc.). It beat Tekken to the UK market, was miles better than Street Fighter: The Movie: The Right Royal Mess, and was a fun, playable beat-'em-up that spawned at least two sequels. It deserves a reboot.
apparently shrek is a really good speedrunning game. that might actually be a good idea for a list, terrible games that speedruners love
I love this idea!!!
Heck yeah! And AGDQ's Awful Block is truly a treasure trove of possible entries 😂
Yes this is a great idea! Would watch! I mean I guess I'll watch literally anything these people put out, but still!!!

I enjoyed it at the time myself, but I can't play it at all anymore. Though I still think the multiplayer mode where everyone got secret instructions through their Wii remote speaker is a pretty cool concept nobody's really done in any fashion since.
Redsteal 2 was really good in my opinion.
E. T. I thought RedSteel was revolutionary lol. Maybe I was naive. But man I had so much fun with that game, I beat it like 5 times.
I thought it was great 👍
@@k29king1 I absolutely loved it, i would play it over and over before my wii broke
I was bracing for Red Steel to be on this list. In my experience, it's an acquired taste, but its jankiness helped me adjust better to other FPS games on the Wii, which refined the meaning of pointer controls in that genre. There are certainly worse launch titles for that system.
Why did the words "enjoyable cinema experience" overlap with footage of "Catwoman"?
"Thus singlhandedly killing off the tradition of using the number of bits a console has as shorthand for how powerful it is"
Not true. We use teraflops now
25 years later and I'm still waiting for Super Mario 128
Maybe it was because I was young but I remember LOVING Red Steel. The multiplayer was so fun. I can probably guarantee it was because I was young but it still brings back good memories
2:30 OK, the game looks like crap, but having the exposition delivered by someone reading a storybook, complete with silly voices, sounds pretty charming and appropriate.
It kind of is tbh, I owned it, but honestly it is super weird walking around and hearing nothing but dumb sound effects and no voices.
@@xandertrejo It's like with FFX-2. I keep thinking it has more voice work than it does. It has awesome voiced cinematics, but.. those and not normal gameplay.
"That are best left forgotten"
Yet here we are, outsidexbox.

>Enjoyable Movie
>Catwoman
Pick One
I think Catwoman qualifies for the so-bad-it's-good category

...no. Wanting to slit my wrists every moment of that film is certainly unique, but not an enjoyable emotion.
@ chad
@ what is your point?
@@hugofontes5708 seems pretty obvious my point is gay dudes don't like the movie because they don't like fine honies in spandex...
Whyask stupid questions
You know, I played Red Steel 2, the launch title for Wii Motion+. Some of the controls were still a bit clunky, but you could switch between sword and gun at will, and the story wasn't bad. Also, the controls were only really ever any bad if you were trying to use your special sword abilities, such as the "dragon", which was pretty much an air cannon, "eagle", which launched enemies into the air(and supposedly let you follow them for aerial combat, though I never could), or "bear", where you punched the ground to cause a small earthquake, and was pretty much the only way to beat the Katakara heavy gunners, who had miniguns with small blast shields, so you had to somehow get behind them, primarily by making them lose their balance with the Bear, and just running around them while they struggled to pick their gun back up. The other two abilities were the "Cobra", which was essentially a mark-and-execute with your gun, and the "Tiger", which let you do a really good block. The normal sword block just blocked bullets. The Tiger deflected them back at the shooter, or if it was a melee fighter, staggered them, which let you do an instant finisher. The Cobra and Tiger, however, were reliably usuable.
Credit where credit is due: Battle Arena Toshinden had an awesome soundtrack.
And was a very nice fighting game. The problem is that most of this channel's editors were too young to know or play it, or weren't even born when it was released!
@@flaviofr4v0 I loved that game, it was and still is one of my favourites.
"Have you ever asked yourself, 'would my best friend be able to POUND me?"
I HAVE asked myself that!
So, do you WANT your best friend to pound you? Like, in an actual fight, or do you mean; like, the other way?
@@shawnfields2369 it was indeed a sex pun yes 😊
@@MsCunningLinguistic That's what I was thinking, thank you.
@@MsCunningLinguistic I see, I'm not the only one who wondered what it would be like to date their best friend. Only difference is, when I asked my best friend, she straight up said she's not interested, but in the nicest way possible. Nothing new for me, I mean pretty much EVERY girl on earth isn't interested anyways, and they never have been, even when I was a kid i knew it. I don't know why i keep trying, honestly. But I'm sure you'd succeed. I don't know what success looks like. But I'm not stupid, I know why girls aren't interested.
Any updates on that front? :P
Oh, I actually really enjoyed Tony Hawk Downhill Jam as a kid? Great for competing against my brother, and the challenge of exploring while racing to find better routes was fun.
I agree it was a lot of fun.
what about that one game that you have to that one thing with that one character in that one place
At that one time? I ducking love that one thing that your talking about!
"scrutinizing your family's bones"
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 I'm fuckin dead
_"Launch Title"_ has become such a dirty term among gamers 😂
(With good reason, of course)
Except when referring to Halo.
For good reason, presumably these are the first games ever made with new hardware specs and new dev tools. To be ready in time, they either have to have a bazillion developers or pretty low quality standards akin to releasing a demo build.
@@bolieve603 Other, better games probably start development earlier, but are not completed in time for launch. Terrible launch titles are either crap because they rushed to release at launch (in which case they could have been good if given more time to work with the new specs), or they were the sort of game that would always have been rushed to completion and half-assed on a pathetic budget-- looking at you Shrek the game.
Super Mario 64
It's really only recently that launch titles started being s***
Is it weird that the “wii would like to play” hits me with nostalgia?
My brother had Red Steel on the Wii, and I thought it looked good. Part of the allure, though, might have been that I was too young to be allowed near it and other than occasional glimpses my main interaction was playing with the laser sight built in to the gratuitously pointless pistol shaped wiimote holders we had
Battle Arena Toshinden is actually a pretty decent fighting game, that also had a lot of follow ups.
10:37 wait so the evil within 2 penguin trailer was inspired by the launch video for the wii? Huh, weird.
@SaintNomad That commercial is super creepy.
I had gone 10 years without listening to CKY again until this very day.
Thank you, OutsideXbox
Dropping off from Luke's stream ✌️
love that "science rocks" t-shirt friend looking very uncomfortable in the background of that fighting game commercial. why is he even in the shot laksjf
Never thought I'd see a digitized Ming-Na on one of these lists 😂
Haha, she looks good in the game.
Mike Myer’s father is Scottish! He’s doing an impression of his dad, he said in an interview with Conan O’Brien
In these troubling times, that darth vader joke at 15:42 reminded me of his most famous quote.
“I find your lack of TP disturbing.” Darth, a long time ago. Probably
15:50 - okay, it was sh*t. Still, I’m kinda impressed they had 64-bit machines of ANY sort back in 1993.
17:00 - I’d be willing to believe the 1990s are to blame for the issues, because the CPUs and memory things (be it the RAM or how much info could be shoved on discs or in the cartridge) just MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN READY to do stuff in 64-bit.
The closest the Jaguar came to being 64-bit was the memory bus; the two coprocessors that shared it were only 32-bit(for further fun, the Jaguar didn't come out on top even by this measure, with the Saturn going to 112-bit by Atari's "math").
How dare you diss Tony Hawk, 8 year old me had a fricken blast!
For the ones that dont know, Battle Arena Toshiden, was pretty much the prototype of the Soul Edge/Calibur Series(in some ways, it got all the Don'ts you should Avoid, and got a Few things right)
Red steel is one of my favorite games ever, like hands down best game on wii
I suspect Andy, with his encyclopedic knowledge of strange and obscure fighting games, knows *exactly* what a Battle Arena Toshinden is.
This is the first time anyone has ever said "enjoyable film going experience" while Catwoman was on screen
That movie's executive producer was cocaine.
I am so sorry you guys had to play these for footage, but I do admire your bravery and commitment.
"What will be the worst launch title of the upcoming console generation?"
The only launch titles I even know about are Halo, Gears, and The Last of Us. All of those are already established and massively popular franchises, and 2 of them are essentially ports from the previous gen.
I don't know if all launch titles have been announced yet, but I would love to see a list as you guys are wont to do.
Is gears already out, and last of us 2 is supposed to be PS4 but it has been delayed again so you never know
Thank you for not playing that irritating smashmouth song.
What is the TH-cam algorithm trying to tell me now that Cyberpunk is released ?🤔
CyberPunk got lucky they weren't out when y'all made this lol.
"...enjoyable cinema experience," while showing a bit from Halle Berry's Catwoman. Oooookay. lol
Do most unsatisfying villain deaths (Include the wolf from mw 2019) and most 4th wall breaking games (Include deadpool and sunset overdrive)
"Have you ever tried being sad on a skateboard? It's almost impossible."
The teenage version of me and my emo skater friends would disagree.
As much as I hate most movie tie in games there is one that I love and I am certain that this is the best movie tie in game ever (drum roll please) THE PUNISHER game
Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game isn't that bad! (especially compared to the original arcade version). And the movie it's based on was pretty good, too!
Andy likes it!
Honestly I prefer the movie named Real Steel.Giant robots boxing will always be cool!
11:27 it almost looks like they modeled that after a freaking Hi-Point.
Ooh! I had an idea for a list. Most amusing/ridiculous incantations for spells/powers.
My vote is for Rita Mordio from Tales of Vesperia. When you cast her strongest spell, she has a long, very anime style incantation. However, when in Limit Break mode, it shortens to "Blah blah blah. Tidal Wave!" followedby a massive whirlpool.
I'm sure there's more, but I'm not your List McGuffin, just a fan with a suggestion. Besides, others likely have their favourites.
Just because you were bad at Downhill Jam doesn't mean it's bad.
I love the game called Andy Farrant, it’s so much fun and the story is thrilling
But have you ever actually PLAYED it before, or the Switch version, or the sequel? Or the 3DS version? The one that plays like an Ace Attorney game? Where Andy kicks you in the face, and it's like an Ace Attorney game, (if it were a JRPG), and during the game, slams his desk constantly, and tells you to bury the Kinect and any ads in a lead-lined box.
"Trevor Mc Fur"
*Notices ur launch title OwO*
we need a "7 launch titles that would've been better if the hardware they relied on hadn't experienced decreased performance capabilities due to the hardware developers cutting corners"
"Which we don't, because it sUuUcked"
Okay so Shrek sucked but does anybody remember Shrek super slam? Truly the best Shrek game (and not just for the announcer)
Awh, I loved Red Steel! 😂 I was also 10 tho so....
We now know what the bad launch title of the PS5 and Xbox Series X is... “Cyberpunk 2077”
Honorable mention goes to Lair. This PS3 game was hyped up an announced as a launch title, which demonstrated both the graphical power of the PS3 and the possibilities of the Sixaxis motion controls. However, it got delayed multiple times and released a year after the PS3s launch. Even with a year of extra development, it is clear the creators could not figure out how to make motion control based dragon steering at all functional.
Great video, guys! Thanks for the wonderful content, and stay safe and sane... Luv ya!
Ok, am I the only person seeing the similarities between the Fighter Within trailer guy and Jim Carrey's Riddler?
Maybe, maybe not?
Xbox Marketing Director: We should get Christian Slater to make a commerical for our new Kinect fighting game.
Phil Spencer: We have Christian Slater at home.
Christian Slater at home:
The original XBox was pretty groundbreaking...if you dropped it.
Weirdly, the Shrek game is actually has a pretty entertaining speedrun.
First thought looking at the Kinect ad: How did they get Christian Slater to do promos for the Xbox?
Well, how else was Christian Slater going to eat that day? He wasn't doing anything else at the time, was he? Oh, wait, he's still not...
As a person who owned both a Xbox 360 and a Kinect, I can say that the only game I really played on that thing was Kinect Adventures, which was actually kinda fun tbh. Otherwise, it kinda just sat there collecting dust.
Considering you made me remeber it a few weeks ago, I'm suprised you didn't put Fusion Frenzy on the list.
It was sort of like if someone made a gritty reboot of Mario Party without including any Nintendo IP's.
11:04 there was also a game called conduit which was I guess supposed to be Nintendo's answer to halo and call of duty though it did have an interesting premise and from what me and my brother played was pretty good
"Not even an optional CD-ROM drive that made the console look like Darth Vader's toilet could save it." Oh, ouch, laughed too hard... (my kidney!)
Xbox Kinect seems a lot like Nintendo Wii, if I wanted to movie around I'd just go outside. I suppose they now seem like a great way to exercise with the quarantine if you don't have a workout bike
I'm gonna be honest, I loved red steel until I got stuck on a sword fight because the sword fights were garbage & one of the required moves you need to do wouldn't work.
Mike McSkin should be a character on D&D adventure.
I had the original Xbox, and multiple of its launch titles, including shrek. It was ok, i dont think it was bad enough to be launched into the sun, but it wasnt good. The best launch title, and one i wish would be remastered for current gen consoles with functional online play, is Whacked! It was actually amazingly fun. One of my favorites from the og xbox, along with DaH, crash n burn, and voodoo vince (which has been remastered, try it if you have the ability to, one of the best 3D platformers)
You asked just what was Toshinden.
Battle Arena Toshinden was a 3D fighting game with characters who each used a specific weapon (a club, a sword, claws etc.). It beat Tekken to the UK market, was miles better than Street Fighter: The Movie: The Right Royal Mess, and was a fun, playable beat-'em-up that spawned at least two sequels. It deserves a reboot.
WTF how many ads do i need to see for one list guys?
Red Steel was great. I never got the hate for that game.
