I love how Frank is giving a second chance at life and he just goes back to drinking beer and watching Ancient Aliens! I swear that would be me I would go back to watching American hauntings and drinking miller lite!
I picked this game up over the summer and struggled with it, primarily because I had no clue what was going on. I'm glad that you covered this because I now have a better understanding of the game & how it works-- plus I learned some things that I didn't know about the game in general. Thanks for this!
@@MajinCCBThePrince I wish there were walk-throughs when I was a kid. There were more than a few games we just couldn't figure out what to do, tried everything we could think of, then gave up. A good example is Flipull for Gameboy (and you bet we lost the instructions).
@@scramblesthedeathdealer true, but it's to the point these days that it's easy to not even bother trying to figure out a puzzle, just look it up. Kinda ruins alot of games, it's ok not being able to beat a game.
@@MajinCCBThePrince I absolutely agree with the second part, I haven't beaten most of the games I own (at least without a little, or a lot of cheating 😔). 😆 It's all about having fun. Like the name of the NES, Nintendo *Entertainment* System. Everyone has their own idea of what is fun, and it's only a competition if you enter one. I'm not very good at most games, but they let me take a quick break from the stress of life, maybe a good hit of nostalgia. 😊
This game is a perfect example of what we gamers are thinking of when we reminisce of the first decade and a half of the console era...the 80's and early to mid 90's. We remember and appreciate just how good, fun to play and entertaining the ingenuity of simple gameplay could be.
I love this this game! I remember, though the scares being really jarring for how explicit they were. You'd have some scares that'd be laughed out a children's haunted house ride at a cheap fair, to shit like a woman peeling her own skin off, the Buzz saw hacking people up, and then the car trunk full of one of the Sardini's body parts.
Great episode, good Frank ratio. Send my deepest sympathies as well as a pat on the back for the resurrection. Maybe your best episode yet, probably because it was Sega ;)
Can't believe someone reviewed Haunting. This is one of my favorite games and such an over looked game. I never hear anyone talking about Haunting and its great that its getting a little love. Great review, brother.
This is Pat's best video so far next to Alisia Dragoon, and Frank's acting is actually really good. Got a great laugh out of the beer joke at the start. Keep up the great work!
I know I’m a little late to reply to your comment, but I couldn’t help myself.. I was JUST saying that same exact thing to Jesus at the Prosecutors Office yesterday! It’s completely understandable that they went to sports. But now that they make more money of their yearly FIFA game (the virtual cards) EA should make amends for their decades of evilness bestowed upon us all!!! Make games like Poulterguy! Or even Skitchin’! Road Rash, Jungle Strike, Mutant League Football, Populous, oh SHIIIIIT!!! GENERAL CHAOS!!!!! I friggin LOVED THAT GAME!!! EA could at least try to atone for their many MANY sins. They’re still going to hell no matter what. But maybe they could move up from the 7th layer to the 6th….. Maybe?
Yay a new NES Punk episode and I'm in the under 300 club! :D Pat might see my comment! That would be my dream! ... I need to get a better fucking dream I just realised...
My life is now complete... I don't even know what to do anymore. Pat noticed me... Life has now become meaningless. I shown my friend that Pat the NES Punk replied to me and tried to tell the full truth. I think I said something like "Oh me and Pat? Yeah we are best buds, we communicate online all the time. I'm going to his brother's wedding, I'm best man with Pat you know. Yeah things are getting pretty serious. Pat and I even caught the bouquet together at the wedding. I dunno what that means but obviously no homo." That was pretty much accurate wasn't it? No homo. Love you man. ...no homo...
I'm Ian's defense, I've seen Pat's Haunting starring Poulterguy video and forgot about it. I was intrigued by it and looked it up and discovered I'd seen it already.
This was a game I got countless hours of fun out of as a kid. The one big gripe I had was that because the Sardinis tend to run back and forth between a set number of rooms, your chances of entering some of the more interesting rooms (like the garage in the first house) are very limited. That end boss fight is a complete joke, too. Accuracy is not one of this game's strongest points, and you somehow need to be spot-on with your shots.
When the video started, I glanced at the screen and did a double-take. For a second it looked like Frank was wearing an Intercontinental Title Belt shirt
I always loved this game as a kid. When I was in highschool in my rom days it took me forever to figure out what it was called, just looking through lists of games.
wow, you really are getting Frank to participate in the storylines a lot more! Hooray! Maybe you and him can do your own feature length production like the Nerd!
I remember playing this a long time ago and enjoying it, but I unfortunately had a bootleg version of it, and it was missing the intro. Just dropped you in the game with no explanation and didn't make a lot of sense at the time. Good to see it again.
dude this game was worth renting for the weekend when i was a kid back in the 90s. I remember I showed my friend who had a SNES, and he begged his mom to get him the sega genesis just so he could play this scream bloody gore game. sadly he never got one, but everytime I'd rent it he'd come over and I'd let him play :)
whoa. i was worried there. i'm glad Frank decided to go back into his body. he makes the episodes so much fun! he should do a little stretching before Pat comes over. he probably is a bit stiff. no i don't mean that way. good episode. i really like this game. i don't remember if i had it or my friend did. he lived across the street so who had what is confusing now.
I loved this game on the Genesis and still play it today! Has anyone else checked out Poltergeist on Vita yet? It has a similar play style but the art direction is very different and a nice change of pace.
You know you've seen too many Troma movies when you immediately misread "Polterguy" and "Poultrygeist." And this is coming from a guy that owns Polterguy, complete with box and manual.
I loved this game as a kid. I never owned it but I always rented it at the local video store. I've been looking for this game for years since every once in a while I forget what it is. Still great game, never beat the game but I still loved how each item could turn into evil uses.
I remember getting this game at blockbuster. I didn't really understand how to play the game lol. It seems simple enough but I guess I was expecting more from it.
i used to watch my dad play this all the time when i was a kid, one of my fav retro games ever and im sad we never bought it for our genesis, only rented :
I have attempted playing this many times over the years. The visuals look great but I could never figure out what to do. I think I may give it another try.
It's videos like these that help me to remember there was a time when EA wasn't totally twisted and evil. Sorta like when Luke could still sense the good in Vader. It might actually be buried deep in there somewhere.
I love how Frank is giving a second chance at life and he just goes back to drinking beer and watching Ancient Aliens! I swear that would be me I would go back to watching American hauntings and drinking miller lite!
Great video man. I can tell Frank had a good time helping out on this one too, he was definitely into his part. Thanks for making these videos for us!
I found the beginning of this video genuinely upsetting until Frank reached for his beer. Damn I'm getting old
Man, me too! D-: Great acting on Frank's part.
At first I was like, "No, Frank!!!" But when he grabbed the beer my face went to -.-
Cheers! 🍻

is it me? Or is this Pat's best review yet? Great work Pat! Frank's Awesome :D
I get it now,that red spot on Polterguys face was the injury that killed him! he must of fallen off the board and smashed his face in

I wonder if one day Danny Sullivan will find out how much Pat loves him and his slightly uncommon NES game.
I have this game in my Sega Genesis collection,and it's very fun and unique. "Haunting" is such an underrated overlooked obscure hidden gem.
Frank watches Ancient Aliens? Damn that guy just gets even more awesome with every episode.
This might be Pat's best review,mostly because of Frank.
John and Brian Versus I think it's the pad games one. With Pat dancing around everywhere

Thank you sooo much for a new episode! Keep them coming! I love how long it is!
Someone needs to make a GIF of ghost Frank dancing.
I have never heard of this game before. This would of been a great idea for a Beetlejuice game at the time.
Goobian would have, dumb shit.
You dumb fuck. Never say it "would of" been a great game. Say "could of" instead!
Jeez! The reply section literally got pissed off over grammars.
Great review Pat! This game is amazing on the Genesis, I love how you mention all the details about the game; lots of it I didn't know.
Great episode, good Frank ratio. Send my deepest sympathies as well as a pat on the back for the resurrection. Maybe your best episode yet, probably because it was Sega ;)

And Frank!

This was an amazing episode Pat and Frank!!!
Frank is the best, he's like Pat's version of Wilson from Home Improvement.
man frank did such a great job :D
Frank reaching for the beer instead of the phone was priceless! ALL HAIL FRANK!
Yay a new NES Punk episode and I'm in the under 300 club! :D Pat might see my comment! That would be my dream!
... I need to get a better fucking dream I just realised...
Yup.
***** Unfortunately +JamesTavRule died moments before Pat posted that message. Sad,but so it goes.

...no homo...
It's like a precursor to "the sims."
Frank? FRANK!? FRANK NOOOOO! You were so young! D':
Hey Pat please review Journey to Silius. It's an NES gem that has become increasingly forgotten.
Beautiful game, man I loved that one.
13:35 - it is implied that the entire family are a bit scummy, so relieving any twinges of conscience.
Thumbs up for Frank's dancing skills
Frank was so green! I love that he is always watching ancient aliens,and how he pronounces Mario!
Fuck I laughed so hard when Frank grabbed the beer.
Frank gets extra points for not spilling his beer 2:26 ... even after death. lol
While laughing my ass off, I was so relieved that Frank was finally able to reach his Sierra Nevada.
I loved this game as a kid...
I choked on my water when I realized you photoshopped your face on the cover art after not noticing for the whole episode
MORE FRANK THAT WAS AWESOME 10/10
10:52 You would think the Sardini family would be used to seeing body parts in the trunk of a car. :P
those damn aliens, they took our women and killed Frank! D:
Anyway great review!
So glad you did a review of this. One my favorite games! Awesome video, Frank was great!
I'm Ian's defense, I've seen Pat's Haunting starring Poulterguy video and forgot about it. I was intrigued by it and looked it up and discovered I'd seen it already.
13:40 - Well, you just had it in their introduction screens. They are equally evil and spoiled people, so scaring all of them makes sense. 2:12

I think I'm actually tickled pink to see Pat review Haunting Starring Polgerguy! Not to mention Frank had me laughing the whole time. Great video Pat!
Holy shit, Pat! A video that isn't a podcast!(were they being uploaded somewhere else this whole time?)
Glad to see you back
When the video started, I glanced at the screen and did a double-take. For a second it looked like Frank was wearing an Intercontinental Title Belt shirt
Best Halloween themed show ive seen on youtube this year, really liked this one.
Lol, when Frank was having his little "heart attack" my video encountered an error. Perfect timing.
Good god I LOVED this game as a kid! That medusa head always freaked me out.
"It's a me Mario, I'm going win. Yeah baby! Wahoo. It's a winning time."
Oscar for Frank's death scene.
I always loved this game as a kid. When I was in highschool in my rom days it took me forever to figure out what it was called, just looking through lists of games.
wow, you really are getting Frank to participate in the storylines a lot more! Hooray! Maybe you and him can do your own feature length production like the Nerd!
Frank is hilarious! I was pretty bummeb when he was dying but the beer thing made up for it.
Loved this game as a kid. It was so unique!
Okay that was f word-ing funny, and Haunting Staring Polterguy was one of my favorite childhood games. Bravo!
I remember playing this a long time ago and enjoying it, but I unfortunately had a bootleg version of it, and it was missing the intro. Just dropped you in the game with no explanation and didn't make a lot of sense at the time. Good to see it again.
this autoplayed for me after new James and Mike Monday (10-9-17). my daughter freaked thinking Frank died for real. we love ya Frank!!!
[2:41] *It's me, Papa Mario!*
Frank looks like Mario's father LOL:P
I don't want to imagine Frank dying.
8:51 You couldn't get someone to throw a real stress ball at you?
Freako. ♥ Good to see you around since 5SF (mostly) petered out.
This was a documentary. It was filmed as it happened.
lmao
get outta hear freako go watch some shitty axman
Yes Yes he could have and?
This just made my day, thank you guys!
great video, never heard of this before, i had fun watching it, it seems ive somehow missed some of these ones, so its nice to see a few in a row
I love how Frank's first line is "what the fuck" lol
Hahahahaahah the frank acting in the intro is FUCKING AWESOME
Frank should win an academy award for this one.
dude this game was worth renting for the weekend when i was a kid back in the 90s.

I had this game in my late teens and a ton of other Genesis games
I loved this game on the Genesis and still play it today! Has anyone else checked out Poltergeist on Vita yet? It has a similar play style but the art direction is very different and a nice change of pace.
Frank needs to write a book of his life philosophy to pass on to later generations.
I'm glad Frank is willing to participate more now. Nice job loved it!
You know you've seen too many Troma movies when you immediately misread "Polterguy" and "Poultrygeist." And this is coming from a guy that owns Polterguy, complete with box and manual.
Awesome review Pat. I actually just got this game about a month ago in a craigslist lot.
Favorite line: "Sega, FairKID..."
Keep up the good work.
I LOL'd at the Danny Sullivan part. You couldn't just leave it to be a pod cast gag lol.
What a dramatic beginning, and a strange ending. Good work, Pat. The game does look pretty interesting, too bad I never had a Genesis.
Surprisingly dark opening, looked almost like a real heart attack!
I loved this game as a kid. I never owned it but I always rented it at the local video store. I've been looking for this game for years since every once in a while I forget what it is. Still great game, never beat the game but I still loved how each item could turn into evil uses.

that outro music from the game!?!?
Damn its as rocking as road rash 2 songs!
That couch looks comfy. Your garden is nice, too.
That beginning was surprisingly dark
Lmao, this was a great video Pat.
Yet another game I wish I had been aware of when I had my Genesis back in the day. This would have been great to share with friends over.
Brian Cole Likewise. I didn't hear about this game or Zombies Ate My Neighbors until recently.
Brian Cole EMULATE BUDDY...it's worth it or you can try for pc Ghost master or Poltergeist : A Pixelated Horror (puzzle)
I feel the same way every time I watch Ancient Aliens I die a lil inside
i used to watch my dad play this all the time when i was a kid, one of my fav retro games ever and im sad we never bought it for our genesis, only rented :
+Ashley Zera What's the name of the first Genesis fighting game he showed that was extra bloody?
Even though he referenced it, I was still hoping for him to get attacked by the candy bowl again!
I wonder what this game would be like with a new installment today? Same premise, different ghost, different revenge plot.
I had this game on my SEGA and enjoyed it. To this day it's the only game I can think of where the only objective is to...FUCK WITH PEOPLES HEADS!
XD
I have attempted playing this many times over the years. The visuals look great but I could never figure out what to do. I think I may give it another try.
wow I cant believe I remember this! Thanks for the reminder!
Did anyone else noticed the CoolSpot2 jump animation and framework? XD
Bought this at Babbage's on the clearance shelf back in the mid 90's
I've always wanted to play this game. It's nice to see it get some attention.
Well done! Loved this game from the first time I played it as a kid. Rented it from Blockbuster and was hooked.
Another Oscar worthy performance by Frank! Oh, and you were pretty good too I guess, Pat. :P
At least that damn skeleton hand didnt get you this year!
I bought this game at a Needs convenience store for $40 back in the day. Great game
