That's how you do it. It's got heart, and the intimacy needed in a private setting. Marriage isn't about the public; it's about the couple. Hence, the proposal should be the same.
On topic of Easter eggs, here's a nice one. In Earthbound, in Magicant, there's a little girl NPC named Nico. She's named after Marcus Lindbloom, head of localization for Earthbound, daughter who was born during the localization.
There’s another one similar to this. In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire there is a girl named Kiri who will give you a rare berry every day. She is named after Junichi Masuda’s (director of Pokémon) daughter who was born right before the games released.
@@springcheese3642 I forgot to also mention the "Get Dismembered in Dead Space 2 Contest" where by winning an art contest you could be a victim in the game. The winner was Dan Emmerson. He's the guy in Chapter 2 who tries to climb into the elevator, then gets stabbed and pulled out screaming. Honestly I'd love to have won that. Dead Space 2 is incredible.
@@LordVarkson Oh shut up. Itoi was in the room for the entire localization process, and every change from the original had to go through him. It changed a name, grow up.
Woah! I'm a fan of the channel and have been watching for years. That ending was surreal. I didn't tell my wife we were in the video before watching it and got to see her tear up all over again. Thanks Whang!
Oddly enough I was married to a game designer and both my name and my son’s are used in the game. My son has had his name in graffiti in another game my ex did. They spend years making the games and work looooong hours. It’s a great way to pay homage to your family. Even if your name happens to be above a topless woman in a brothel in The Godfather 😂😂😂
I named my first born son whang in your honor btw. My wife isnt speaking to me anymore since i did this behind her back, but i knew you would love it 😁😁😁
its so weird when people do extremely public marriage proposals, it puts way too much pressure on the recipient of the proposal to say yes when they might want to say no, or take some time to consider it.
It only works if both are on the same page, you can tell when they both are waiting for the question to come up, but if you're not sure then a smaller more intimate way is better
A marriage to proposal to save your dying relationship? Now that is a lesson I had to learn the hard way. At least I did learn though, and now I'm with someone new who I proposed to while our relationship was going strong!
@@klamarl bible says not to correct a fool, as they'll hate you for it - so when someone gets mad at being corrected, it shows that they can't handle correction, and would rather be ignorant to the truth then face reality It's sad but this is what I see here, someone trying to help him improve himself, let's attack him! Someone that's just as dumb as I am? Let's be friends, so long as you NEVER correct me. *Shrug*
This was neither sad, gross nor rage-inducing - this was just some misguided people who got through their problems, with the addendum of an actual and really nice proposal-by-game story at the end. Awesome.
no, it is absolutely gross and rage-inducing, not the simple fact that he did it (although I think that was clearly a pretty ill-conceived idea), but the fact that he publicly spread lies about her, including claiming she cheated on him with his brother, as well as distorting the situation to sound like she was just massively unfair to him (when in fact he had been given opportunities to improve things between them, but would've rather focused on some fantasy of a marriage proposal doing all the work for him), and basically brigaded a bunch of other online losers against her. The dude acted like a butthurt little boy after being dumped.
The best public proposal video I've seen is the one in the mall next to a mariachi-like band. He gets down on the knee and she keeps trying to tell him to not do it (presumably, you can't really hear what she says). Finally, she has enough and grabs a little guitar and El Kabong's the guy. It's hilarious.
I had to look up the video after reading this, everything about the proposal is disastrous. The stupid mall setting, the train passing by and interrupting his speech, the janitor mopping the floor behind them, him constantly saying "you're my sweetie pie you're my cutie pie," and she's visibly uncomfortable the entire time. The fact that she whacks him in the head with a comically small guitar is just comedy perfection.
@@Sweetestsadist oh dear lord, I didn't even notice that. "NOT SO SWEET" indeed, I bet he wasn't expecting to get whacked in the head. Not that I blame her, I had an urge to do the same thing just listening to him.
What, you mean propose marriage to longterm partner, go through multiple issues of buildup, only for editorial to not let it happen because reasons? Actually that works for Batwoman as well - so it can ruin non-hetero relationships as well! Bravo, DC Comics...
Imagine going out of your way to convince a large developer to put your GF's name in a game for a failed proposal, only to then later discover that someone else used that same easter egg on their own proposal with a similarly named SO and managed to pull it off. Even if he's moved on from it, that has to sting just a little bit.
This game contains an even sadder Easter egg, a few years before the game released a 4 year old Spider-Man fan passed from cancer and his father wanted to put Spider-Man on his grave stone but Disney threatened to sue him for copyright infringement so he couldn’t. In the video game’s cemetery you can find a grave with the boys name not too far from uncle bens grave.
I think what's also interesting is that in the sequel "Marvel Spider Man 2" if you go where the proposal was on the movie theater. It got changed into the clinic, and it's called the "H.E.A.R.T Clinic." I'm not sure if this is Insomniac Games' response of what happened after the proposal or it's just a big coincidence.
My favorite example of "getting your name in the game" is when Disney and Squaresoft ran a contest to have one of the secret bosses in the first Kingdom Hearts be named after the winner. Said winner was a guy from New York called "Kurt Zisa" and thus the secret boss in Agrabah was named after him. Which, honestly, it just sounds obvious now because his name is "Kurt" but for the longest time I thought it was some weird made up name fitting for a weird desert snake monster.
I never found the idea of proposing your love publicly a good idea, I like to keep thing between two lover so that it would feel more like "this is a special moment for only two of us" and won't seem like a big embarrassment for other people to know when it's fail
It's somewhat poor taste to choose a gift for someone else based on what the _giver_ would like to receive. He liked Spider-Man and video games, and wrongly assumed his girlfriend would be wooed by Spider-Man and video games. Young children often do this, because they haven't yet developed "theory of mind"; the understanding that other people have different thoughts, feelings and interests from their own.
There was another video game proposal where a guy created a level in Super Mario Maker for his gf to play and she loved it and said yes. It was pretty sweet and adorable.
When the Trivia Game You Don't Know Jack was on Facebook, somebody arranged for a proposal to be given in the form of a question on a special episode by the host. What's cool about that is that the actual proposal was recorded and is still on youtube! (She said yes)
I remember back when mother 3 was being developed on the n64 there was this competition to show of this piece of technology Nintendo where working on where you can capture someone's face and put it in the game. Whoever won the competition got put in the actual realise version of the game. So this boy won and you can see screenshots of him in the game in some publications. However mother 3 never came out on n64. It got cancelled and remade from scratch on the game with no sign of the contest winner. Probably up there with one of the worst ways of being included in a video game outside of this case. Well, if you consider this being included
I don't think Tyler expected this to actually happen, likely expecting Insomniac to ignore his post like so many others. But when they actually messaged back, he probably had an "oh shit, now what do i do" moment before deciding to forge ahead with this. I hope Tyler and Maddie find happiness, and I'm pretty glad that at least someone got to use this successfully for its intended purpose, so good for Mitch too.
Massive proposals like that are a terrible idea. Doing something small is a better idea. I hope Maddie and Tayler are doing alright after this whole thing happened
People are supposed to TALK about wanting to get married before the actual proposal. I thought that was blatantly obvious. But I guess some people just figure from TV that the proposal alone is fine.
If there's one thing these stories have taught me, it's never mention anyone in your personal life on social media unless you want them to get harassed
Whang is a true internet historian. Without his deep dives, fantastic scripts and the editing, I feel like we may have lost so much early internet history. The internet is never going away.. and there has had so much happen since its inception that future generations will never know just how wild it was. The internet is becoming homogenised and heavily policed. The wild west days on the internet are long gone. Thankfully Whang is there to document everything that has happened.
Funny enough, I was invited by my aunt to go to a religious convention where we saw a public proposal during the lunch break. About 5 or 6 thousand people applauded the guy before the woman even gave her answer, but when he pulled out the ring, she ran off, crying. I later learned that the guy barely even knew her, and that his only real contact with her was casual small talk. It was really, really weird.
Mad respect for the Wiz n Liz music, dude. I feel like I half watch your videos because your content is awesome, half to hear what obscure video game tunes you pick to put in the background.
Its possible that's just what he thought at the time. He was a young guy going through a hard breakup and suddenly his brother gets close to his ex, he probably just jumped to conclusions.
@@Chilli2001 Nah, its the most dumb sitcom drama situation possible that the guy could think of to get out of the embarrassment without people laughing at him. The kind of excuse a guy who wanted to propose using a spiderman video game would think up.
I don't know why people haven't gotten the idea that public proposals are a bad idea. As you said it puts a lot of pressure on the other party And unless both parties are a 100% on the same page. It can go horribly wrong, but when it goes right It's wonderful but that doesn't happen very often.
thanks for posting these, i always find your videos funny and informative. Typically, if i look into something i listen to a video on i find its not quite as its told, they will exaggerate for the sake of a joke, but i don't think you've done that.
I like the use of the Truxton soundtrack in this video! Didn't even pay attention to the background music at first but once I realized what it was I couldn't ignore it anymore XD
After watching this video, I went to the location in Spider-Man 2 to see if the theater was still there. It's a H.E.A.R.T Clinic now. Damn, the proposal bombed so hard the whole theater shut down.
The spiderman bed spread got me pretty good, then the double whammy of the ex saying she used to play mom and his save all being a proposal in a spiderman video game. As much as I love spider-man, she definitely made the right choice lol.
Even if she was interested, she probably wouldn’t have thought the marquee in the video game was directed at her. There’s a lot of videos of failed marriage proposals like that you could probably find here on TH-cam. It just seems like a mess doing all that.
Oooh, that hot air balloon clip is making my skin crawl. "Hey guys, does anybody have one of those base jump parachute packs by chance? I've gotta get outta this basket, like immediately."
2:18 a small nitpick (and I could be wrong and this could just be a specific version feature) but the game asks you to put in your name and what you put there will appear on the name tag as a sort of meta commentary on free will. You likely confused it with many other games who did actually do stuff like that. Correct me if I'm wrong as I wanna learn more about this.
theres a youtube arg called catghost, and each video had a game attached. each of these games had an easter egg for typing a certain word, usually resulting in something creepy. the one for the ending of the series also had one, but instead of being creepy, it lead to a proposal from one creator to the other creator (they were a couple and worked on the series together) i think thats unironically the cutest way to propose to someone.
God my heart I love the two happy ending stories at the end 💕💕😭😭 This video hits kinda different tho cos me and my bf just broke up (on very good terms tho we're still very close!)
Saddest easter egg? Isn't this the same game that shows the Twin Towers in the reflection of the Freedom Tower? It's insane, and the developers swear up and down that they didn't put it there.
Why are you framing it like they’re lying about putting the Easter egg in and it was obvious intentional they’d have actually no reason to lie about that especially when the feedback to it was positive
Reminds me of this one local radio station that for months when you tuned in instead of displaying the song names (which I HATED having removed) it read “x female will u marry me?” Only to be updated like a month later with “SHE SAID YES” 3 years later and it still there, unlike Maddie’s yes
I think the issue was Tyler was dating a girl who didn't like or had the same interests as he did. Yeah his financial issues was a big problem too. So if the person you're dating doesn't like the same stuff you like the relations won't last long.
If you are going to propose to a girl through a video game you should: 1) make sure she likes video games and 2) do what the second guy did and make a little custom game for her or if you really can't figure out coding pay someone to make a short little custom game for her.
so he lies that she left him to be with his brother, but says he didn´t mean to talk crap about either of them I can totally understand why she left him
Spider-Man 2018 is just packed full of easter eggs, man. Avengers Tower and Nelson & Murdock being my favourite. But my god I hadn't heard about this. I only played it when it came to PC.
Whenever I hear about TV related marriage proposals, I can't help but think of that character in Fresh Prince proposing to Hilary in during a live bungie jumping broadcast. "Hillary Banks,will you marry m-..." And the whole family just goes quiet. Will breaking the tension with an observation that things probably wasn't supposed to happen like THAT.
happened to me once, my ghost ex propose to me just me, we just date a mth, i said no in front of his friends. he straight up block me from all socials & gone like missing person. the most wtf happened to me.

SAME! I searched through the comments to find this one before I said something similar haha.
"I see you are also a man of culture." 😂
Surf Wisely.
After watching this video, I went to the location in Spider-Man 2 to see if the theater was still there. It's a H.E.A.R.T Clinic now. Damn, the proposal bombed so hard the whole theater shut down.
Do wavy and wang coordinate upload schedule? No complaints here
you bout to make me cry with that last little story about the game developer guy
On god its been 6 years. I remember when this was discovered. 6 years since that game came out.
she really hit him with the "I'm not happy"
my hubby also proposed to me making a videogame, the thingy no longer runs on new PCs but I keep the file for sentimental value
The spiderman bed spread got me pretty good, then the double whammy of the ex saying she used to play mom and his save all being a proposal in a spiderman video game. As much as I love spider-man, she definitely made the right choice lol.
Hey, a Whang video I can watch while eating!
Mmm a delicious thanksgiving meal. Thank you, Whang.
I have haven't been getting notifications for your videos in over a year so it's good to see your videos in my notifications again.
Even if she was interested, she probably wouldn’t have thought the marquee in the video game was directed at her. There’s a lot of videos of failed marriage proposals like that you could probably find here on TH-cam. It just seems like a mess doing all that.
Oooh, that hot air balloon clip is making my skin crawl.
"Hey guys, does anybody have one of those base jump parachute packs by chance? I've gotta get outta this basket, like immediately."
thank you for ending the video on a positive note with that 2D platformer game story, I think I needed that
2:18 a small nitpick (and I could be wrong and this could just be a specific version feature) but the game asks you to put in your name and what you put there will appear on the name tag as a sort of meta commentary on free will. You likely confused it with many other games who did actually do stuff like that. Correct me if I'm wrong as I wanna learn more about this.
theres a youtube arg called catghost, and each video had a game attached. each of these games had an easter egg for typing a certain word, usually resulting in something creepy. the one for the ending of the series also had one, but instead of being creepy, it lead to a proposal from one creator to the other creator (they were a couple and worked on the series together)
i think thats unironically the cutest way to propose to someone.
The dog tags were also in Twin Snakes, the Gamecube remake of the first Metal Gear Solid. I used to speed run the all dog tags category :)
I had only heard that the sign in the Spiderman game was an actually proposal so i was in for a lot of surprises
That ending is just so gosh darn wholesome, I love it
Dude, did you use Truxton for some of the music in this? That's awesome!
Yeah, I've been playing a lot of different SHMUPs lately and love Truxton's music and thought it'd be fun to use.
I also noticed this and geeked out a bit! 😅
Surf Wisely.
God my heart
I love the two happy ending stories at the end 💕💕😭😭
This video hits kinda different tho cos me and my bf just broke up (on very good terms tho we're still very close!)
I remember reading about this when it happened. Good lord, it's been five years now.
You know it's a Whang ad segment when that River City Ransom Shop Music kicks in
Bro at the end is an absolute LEGEND
Saddest easter egg? Isn't this the same game that shows the Twin Towers in the reflection of the Freedom Tower? It's insane, and the developers swear up and down that they didn't put it there.
Why are you framing it like they’re lying about putting the Easter egg in and it was obvious intentional they’d have actually no reason to lie about that especially when the feedback to it was positive
Got a bit teary eyed at the game development proposal. What a lovely surprise.
that second story was totaly wholesome
Reminds me of this one local radio station that for months when you tuned in instead of displaying the song names (which I HATED having removed) it read “x female will u marry me?” Only to be updated like a month later with “SHE SAID YES” 3 years later and it still there, unlike Maddie’s yes
I think the issue was Tyler was dating a girl who didn't like or had the same interests as he did. Yeah his financial issues was a big problem too.
So if the person you're dating doesn't like the same stuff you like the relations won't last long.
If you are going to propose to a girl through a video game you should: 1) make sure she likes video games and 2) do what the second guy did and make a little custom game for her or if you really can't figure out coding pay someone to make a short little custom game for her.
so he lies that she left him to be with his brother, but says he didn´t mean to talk crap about either of them
I can totally understand why she left him
Love the New Jack shirt Justin
Its a kind gesture, i think its sweet.
I can’t believe I had just witness a Whang video with no depravity on it. Can’t believe it, I was waiting for the gross part 😂😂😂😂
I love the rare Whang videos with wholesome endings 👍
Spider-Man 2018 is just packed full of easter eggs, man. Avengers Tower and Nelson & Murdock being my favourite. But my god I hadn't heard about this. I only played it when it came to PC.
That's insane the developer's actually put that in the game for a random guy on twitter
this is the spiderman game version of that sad walking spiderman meme, explosions and all
Holy shit. What is the banging chiptune in this video?
That last story was actually pretty damn cute
Whenever I hear about TV related marriage proposals, I can't help but think of that character in Fresh Prince proposing to Hilary in during a live bungie jumping broadcast.
"Hillary Banks,will you marry m-..."
And the whole family just goes quiet. Will breaking the tension with an observation that things probably wasn't supposed to happen like THAT.
Wait did Kotaku actually do journalism??
Nope, they took other people's work from Reddit.
@@TheJcris87 Yeah this checks out
happened to me once, my ghost ex propose to me just me, we just date a mth, i said no in front of his friends. he straight up block me from all socials & gone like missing person. the most wtf happened to me.
She dumped a gamer with no ambition AND an anger problem? THE FOOL! Those guys are one in a million!!
My highschool buddy was in 3 games by name, they where sports games but it's something
Maybe they can put in an update patch where you can change the name on the to suit who you're proposing to.
her saying oh me n his brother are just friends .. is the most bs thing ever
0:53 - Um; ok??? Whatever works……
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You should “NEVER EVER” put
“THE PERSON YOU LOVE THE MOST”
In a “SITUATION LIKE THIS”
“STUPID FUCKING IDIOT”!!!!!
Oh good I needed a pick me up today
Now this is something I wanna watch while eating
Not about that guy messy jesus thats disgusting
