    It's time for Bad DC and Batman Games! Be it comics, movies, or cartoons these old superheroes have been in MANY video games... and well, I decided to sweep the bottom of the barrel. Why? Because I have weird taste. So join me for licensed comic book games from the NES all the way to today! No Switch though. They got better after Arkham, weird.

      Adding onto what TheMadmanZero said, there's a podcast interview with Mark Hamill and Kevin Smith where Hamill recounts how he was hired as the Joker. The way he tells it, he was going up against Tim Curry - an absolute behemoth in VA at the time - and because he figured he was never gonna get the role, he might as well go full ham with it and leave the audition with no regrets - really give something for the producers to chew on.
      Then the producers called back and told him he got the job, and he realised he had no goddamn idea what he'd even done during the audition. He'd squared it away and come to terms with not getting the part, and when they called him back, he totally blanked. But being VA work, it had been recorded, so he was able to listen back to it and develop the role from there.
      I probably didn't do the story justice - if you want to hear it coming from Mark Hamill, the interview is an episode of a Smodcast show called Fatman on Batman. It should be the first Mark Hamill episode, so you'll want to sort from oldest to newest and scroll down until you see the Mark Hamill episode.

    Batman and Robin on PS1 fascinates me. When I first heard about it I didn't believe it ever existed. It's really interesting that a comic book licensed game is bad bc it was way too ambitious not bc it was phoned in. But there's little info on the development.
    I really want to know the behind the scenes. It was so ambitious it got delayed and released a year after the movie and was way too big for the hardware's capabilities.
    The extent of the game's world and mechanics was clearly purposeful and this is prior to GTA 3 so open world games like this weren't in vogue. There was passion to this! And its story is lost to time.
    How did the devs get DC to fund this? Why even take this direction for a movie tie in game back then? And Acclaim of all publishers was cool with this and not demand a quick cash grab? So many questions, so little answers...

    Wasn't _Young Justice: Legacy_ the game that explains at least half of the stuff that took place between the first and second seasons of the show? And didn't bother to release until well after the second season had ended?
    It's a little annoying when the show/movies/books you're watching/reading have a spin off in another medium. It's worse when that 'spinoff' actually upends the status quo in significant ways.

      To be fair the show isn't written in a way that it needs to be explained, season 2 is intentionally written with that gap in mind as. You slowly learn about the new status quo and about the missing time as it goes.
      It's not like they wrote it with the intention of a game filling you in on needed information.

    Seems to me that if you want an authentic Superman game, keep Superman nigh-invincible, but give everything and everyone else around him a HP bar or the ability to be destroyed. Thus the challenge of the game is not surviving as Superman, it’s learning how to use your awesome powers in the least destructive way possible.
    I don’t know if a game like that would be fun, but it would certainly be interesting.

      I personally always thought that the best way to do a Superman game would actually be to make something akin to Telltale's stuff, something more story-driven than action-driven. The best Superman stories (All-Star Superman comes to mind) have never been about how hard Superman can punch a badguy. After all, remember that as a superhero created by Jewish creators in the friggin' late 1930s, there's always this subtext (and text) about how The Man of Steel has trouble relating to humanity and vice versa, where his superpowers become an active hindrance to him.

    If you make a video about good superhero games, I highly recommend Batman Begins (GCN, PS2, Xbox). It's a good game imo. Kind of like a proto-Arkham Asylum. It has many fun sections where you're Batman trying to sneak on people from behind to scare them. The batmobile levels are fun too.
    I'd also like it if you talked maybe about the Teen Titans game that came out during the 2000s. It got good reviews back in the day, but I haven't had the ability to play it for myself.

City came with my PS3 Slim I was upgrading to from the PS3. I got about halfway before being bored with it.

    In Young Justice season 2 its mentioned that Tula/aquagirl died, the only way you can see her death is by playing the terrible tie-in game. This is extremely annoying for YJ fans

    I pre-oredered YJ Legacy because the showrunners said the plot was canon and would take place between seasons 1 and 2. It was true... but boy, oh boy, was it a drag.
    I took advantage of the multiplayer and begged my brother and sister to help me play it so I could get through it as quickly as possible.
    It ended up being a smart choice because there's at least one part of the game where you need to rely on your teammates to work some switches in order to progress while enemies spawn near endlessly, and I later found out that the AI is so crappy that the single players' teammates would always prioritize enemies over puzzles, lol.
    Edit: FFVI, you say?

      That'd be cool. The only video game appearance (that I know of) from The Batman Who Laughs is in Mortal Kombat 11. You can change Noob Saibot's skin in the game and he looks like Batman Who Laughs. Although it kinda sucks that he doesn't have his own fighting style, or voice intros - just borrows the ones from Noob Saibot.

    I WAIT UNTIL THE ENDCARD yeah I'd love an ff6 video, especially if it covered all the weird various versions of that game because there's some with subtle differences and then there's that... mobile thing? That game's fun as hell to me but also I don't know a lot about the differences

    • @krimsonkatt
      @krimsonkatt 2 года назад +1

      The mobile version is actually lost media now. It was taken down from both mobile and PC when Pixel Remaster was announced. Luckily I still have the older versions of both FF5 and FF6 on PC. Even though both kinda suck graphicly, at least with the player sprites, the new enemy sprites are gorgeous.
      The stupid thing however about all of this is that pixel remaster is based on the original NES/SNES releases so you're missing out on a TON of bonus content for 4, 5, and 6 that was in the GBA, PSP, DS, and Old Mobile/PC releases. This list of removed content includes:
      FF4
      -Switchable party members (GBA/PSP)
      -Lunar Ruins (GBA/PSP)
      -Character trials (GBA/PSP)
      -Ancient Cave bonus dungeon (GBA/PSP)
      -Extra equipment (GBA/PSP)
      -Zeromus EG, Omega Dragon, and Lunar Summon superbosses (GBA/PSP)
      -Augment Abilities (DS)
      -Voice acting (DS)
      -Remixed and more challenging boss fights (DS)
      -Proto-Babil Superboss (DS)
      -Whyt Summon (DS)
      FF5
      -Omega MKII, Neo Shinryu, and Enuo superbosses
      -Lost Tower bonus dungeon.
      -4 additional jobs including necromancer.
      -Multiple additional weapons.
      FF6
      -6 additional espers+bosses including Cactuar, Leviathan, and Titan.
      -Dragon's Den bonus dungeon.
      -Kaiser Dragon Superboss.
      Really the biggest loss in all of this is FF4. SO MANY FEATURES were cut unessessarily from pixel remaster and there's still no legal way to play the GBA or PSP versions on modern platforms. (the PSP version for the record is identical to the GBA version except with way better music and very pretty graphics) They're still no definitive edition of FF4 with all content from both the PSP and DS releases combined even with pixel remaster, and that seriously sucks.
      At least the losses for FF5 and FF6 aren't as bad, though they still suck and they'res no reason why they couldn't have included them especially since they took down the mobile versions which in spite of their bad graphics had all the GBA-exclusive content.
      1 and 2 as well as missing major content, 1 missing the earth, fire, water, and wind temples each with special cameo bosses from other FFs and the secret final dungeon and it's superboss Chronodia and FF2 missing it's entire second campaign soul of rebirth.
      FF3 pixel remaster is the only one that's the true "definitive edition" since the 2D version of FF3 was never re-released and the 3D version sucks in general and changes too much from the original, plus QoL added in PR that wasn't in either the NES or DS versions.

      @carn9507 2 года назад

      Right? John Wesley Shipp is awesome and I loved how, not only that he got cast as Barry's dad Henry Allen in the early seasons of the current Flash show, but then he played golden age Flash Jay Garrick (and still does to this day in the Flash and Stargirl) and also reprised his original 1990 Barry Allen in the Elseworld and Crisis on Infinite Earths events that took pretty much all prior DC movie (even a surprise appearance from current movie Flash Ezra Miller) and TV adaptations as part of the overall multiverse. Oh and John Wesley Shipp also voiced Flash villain Professor Zoom (who is similar to Reverse Flash in many ways) in Batman: The Brave and the Bold. He's the Flashiest actor there ever was or probably ever will be and is a huge fan favourite despite his original show only lasting one season (and much of that was down to the cost of producing it and usual idiotic network scheduling that killed other short lived fan-fave TV shows such as Firefly). :)
