My trucks broke down and I'm stranded out on some farm road but I've got just enough service to watch this while I wait for my rescue to arrive
a fine consolation
Maybe you should look up how to fix your truck instead of watching useless youtube videos 🤔
@@666slateran666 you mean this video isn't about fixing trucks? Damn this clickbait!
@@666slateran666i wish i was as lucky as this guy and that all my problems are solvable by youtube videos
@@666slateran666found the boring-ass party pooper who can’t go along with it 😹
4:44 If someone said "Look out, here comes Future Mr. Popular. It's tickle time!" I would run faster than you could blink.
The following sentence was, "everyone knows what to expect when they see Chad Ambiguous coming up the rear." Tbh I think you picked the milder threat there and tickles seem joyful in comparison.
When you take it out of context like that, yeah.
I'm imagining Wario Wah-ing whilst running away help-
That was my teachers line. Found it strange he still kept it up as I became an adult.
With no clothes.
@@Wario-The-Legend I dont even think context would help.
“I can’t decide whether I’m really cool or whether I’m just some sort of advanced neckbeard” I’ve never heard a more relatable quote in my life
😅
the sims is so realistic cause i also go to a party, talk to one person, and immediately need a nap
"It's Tickle Time, Fergie!"
- Chad A., hours before his incarceration
...it was such a violent arrest
I initially misread that as "incineration" and honestly I don't know which option is funnier
the best part of these console sims entries for me was the ability to play co-op with my siblings, truly a wonderful time
I too enjoyed playing with your siblings
@@ambiguousamphibian Woah WOAH. Settle down now you naughty amphibian! 😂
I have many fond memories of playing the Urbz with my brother growing up. Good times.
For me it was one of my friends at the time (brother wasn't really into the Sims growing up)
@@ambiguousamphibian😂
becoming the creepiest popular person in real life is how you become a movie producer
Too real🤮
now that makes sense why hollywood is like that
Or nickelodeon producer
You also need money. If you don't have that you become a VH1 reality tv show star instead
As a Sushi chef, I can speak to the accuracy of tickling my boss for party invites and slapping problem customers.
Every two years, ambiguousamphibian plays the Urbz. We don't know why.
😂😂😂😂
*Gives Will-I-am an unprompted back-rub*
"Yes! I'm popular enough that my face is on posters all over town!"
*Doesn't realize that the posters are there to warn people away from the crazy back rubber*
Item descriptions in the Sims series have always been tiny little masterworks in literature.
Also they're entirely different form one language to another. Each localization had it's own for the most part.
"it's tickle time, fergie" may be an entirely brand new arrangement of words. great job!
I remember playing this game endlessly on my GameCube. I remember I had the black eyed peas copy so you could befriend the band (but not sleep with anyone)
I played this game a bunch when I was in high school. The funny thing about Urbz is that all the weird minigames pretty accurately predicted post-recession gig work. Honestly a wildly depressing game in retrospect lol
jesus, you're right lol.
Anyone else need a drink?
@@darlagoddesshate quick, let me minigame one together…
This might be the most interesting Sims game. From acknowledging strippers exist to a guy with pierced nipples, it's automatically more interesting than most of the sanitized stuff that's come out in sims 4.
Honestly my fave, hands down
The worst part is. This year would have been perfect to release a urbs 2. This year marks the 20 year anniversary and it would have been perfect while waiting for the sims 5. Maybe they could have made a game were instead of becoming popular in different spots you have to bring back the night life to save the economy.
@@saberruntv thay could even make the player be like, a younger cousin of the first one, and they grew up on stories about how fun and vibrant everything was. Maybe the first pc was abducted/dissapeared years ago (as usual in the sims lmao) and now everything is depressing and boring and the economy is in shambles.
It's truly the red-light district of the Sims universe
@@saberruntv There was an Urbz 2 planned not soon after the original came out, unfortunately I don't think it sold enough though.
There's also a scrapped PC build out there too, which was supposedly almost complete.
Watching videos like this makes me strongly consider my long-standing contemplation of deliberately inserting a specific word into my vocabulary each day to make my coworkers suspect I have a new "word of the day" calendar, when in fact I'm just fucking with them.
He ambiguous on my amphibian until I Urbz
EXTTEMELY LOUD CORRECT BUZZER
He Urbz my amphibian until it’s ambiguous
@@Bubbarain717you should probably see a doctor for that
MY BRAIN ROTTED
A fellow SuperRad enjoyer, if i may assume? 😄
Finally some normalcy and sanity, the early 2000
Let's get *simlish* in here
Let's get *simlish* in ha
“Everyone knows when Chad Ambiguous walks in, it’s Tickle Time.”
The Sims 2 for Nintendo DS is a truly bizarre game if you can get your hands on it. Running a hotel, dealing with a mafia boss, cows, alien autopsies, becoming batman, and monkey-like robots.
This game is so early 2000s I can smell the bacon scented perfume off of it
what, noone was into bacon nothing in the early 2000s, that's a cringy gen X thing from the 2010s
@@DrBananananananananananananana First of all Gen X are the late 80s to mid 90s generation, you're thinking of gen Z, and second of all, you're wrong, the whole bacon in everything craze started way back in the early to mid 2000s, it was just gen Z that ran it into the ground, by the 2010s it had become cliché.
@@DrBananananananananananananana you are the most insufferable person I have ever seen
@@DrBananananananananananananana Woah, guys... guys. Can we just agree bacon is good in regular doses, but not as a perfume?
I'm injecting bacon grease into my veins as we speak
Please play the Sims 2 DS. That whole story is like a fever dream and I want confirmation it’s all real
You should check out Starrbean, he makes similar content and has a pretty good video of Sims 2 DS
Dude they must have been eating copious amounts of Benadryl while making that game. It actually freaked me out when I was younger.
Or Sims 2 for PSP. Just finished playing it for the first time and it was a trip
The Urbz: Sims in the City on the GBA was definitely a highlight for me in The Sims series. Strangely because it was very much unlike normal Sims, where you played through a story mode rather than have your avatar run around in a guided sandbox.
I should play that again.
I worked on a small team to remake this game for mobile a couple years back, it failed horribly and the funding was cut like 6 months in lol. 😂
Sounds like a wild story
that sounds just specific enough to be true maybe
@@shybread315 All true, was a weird and wild time
@@Thegetitguy like 90% of the team left the game industry including me after it failed lol
Came out right around when Hot Wheels Acceleracers came out. The coolest Hot Wheels promotional material I've ever known.
Highway 35, World Race, Acceleracers... peak. King. Kino.
the urbz for gba will always be my favorite urbz
This version is somehow even more unhinged than the handheld versions. XD
nds version is the premium experience
It was so damn good
Lol why does it sound like AA is in the middle of a mild stroke for this one? Hope he's alright
I heard one of the Black Eyed Peas songs that are covered in the game today and started waxing lyrical about this game, and then you post this AA, the universe is in alignment today...
"its not boarderline personality disorder if it makes me more popular with women." im telling my doctor that next time i see him.
The Urbz is what happens to a copy of the Sims 2 if you left it in a Spencer's for too long.
Ah yes, Chad Ambiguous, decendant of the legendary GURN GRUNT. Following in the footsteps of those before him within this strange groundhog day style timeline.
Thus began the origin story of the supervillain known as "The Tickler"
When i was young i had a crush on the Female Sim of the Cover, and the default female model
I have been watching you for years. I have seen - in real time, via your content - the unravelling and unhinging, the metamorphosis into insanity.
I am so here for it.
Mazuiko is such a mean name to give your kid lmaooo
My first instance of playing the sims that wasn't SimCity was the urbz. And i remember it fondly
Why is Chad earning more money than me in 2004 URBZ world than I earn in 2024?
That’s simoleonflation my friend.
You're drunk, Amphibious Ambiguan! Go and get forklift certified~
the devs were the ones that were smoking some good 'Urbz'
The Urbz is hands down my most favorite of the sims games, though it has definitely not aged as well as i thought it would with its incredibly repetitive gameplay loop and its very small selection of customizations at each location. This game would definitely shine very brightly if it were remade today.. well of coarse aside from the utter nickle and diming that EA will shove down your throat with it too.
Sims Castaway has to be my second most favorite, and came out around the same time too iirc. If i had to pick a sims game that id like to see you play, itd deffo be Castaway. Definitely another title that neeeeeds a remake.
Just look at how much personality they put into castaway, urbz and bustin' out. I miss it.
I love this game, it’s so wonderfully weird lmao
The early 2000s were truly the golden age of experimental gaming
Urbz was the first sims game my parents allowed me to own and it is still by far my favorite one. it also caused me to be obsessed with old school black eyed peas, elephunk and monkey business were the first two CDs i ever bought. thank you for making videos about this game, they legitimately make my heart swell
I like the backflip and wink lol, and "It's tickle time!" had me laughing audibly... that's not allowed at work d*mn it! I should probably stop watching your videos at work, not because I need to work (they get enough out of me), but because laughter's frowned on. Damn it, someone had to come over and find out what I was laughing at, to become "the creepiest popular person of all time."
I mean you can do more of this literally any time you wish. We'll be here for it.
That bouncer looks like he could bench the clubhouse.
bro he could push SimPlanet out of orbit by doing push-ups
14:46
Aah yes, the origin story of how Waluigi got swol.
Gosh, the nostalgia! I loved these little asides when the true Chad underneath the false, yet socially more acceptable, Chad comes out.
Also I remember a schoolmate of mine playing this on a GameBoy Advance. The gameplay loop was SIMiliar but the artstyle was surprisingly different.
I love the Urbz for the ds, it's much more of an adventure game than you'd expect
hey AA i hope this is okay to ask but is everything okay? in the last few non-compilation videos you've sounded really high strung, i hope you're doing alright :(
the strangest sims game, but one of my ALL TIME favourites 😃
this ones special to me too, was all I had growing up in smallville.
thanks dude. fun video
Would love to see you do the Sims 2 GBA and like maybe a Sims 1 Magic expansion challenge become an Archmage or something.
Please! Play more of this! This is my all time favorite game and you made it like 10000 times better with your commentary!
"Is your flabby disgusting body holding holding you back?"
This game is _so_ 2000's 😂😂
This is the first game that ever compelled me to pull an all nighter. Couldn't stop playing this on my GameCube
i remember watching somebody play this before i could comprehend much of what a videogame was. cool to see abit of what it was about
fuckin loving the new drunk energy
currently playing this on ps2. my ALL TIME favorite Sims (besides Sims4) 💚💚💚
also the soundtrack is amazing.
This feels like a fever dream from an alternate timeline tbh
i love how you always manage to get my childhood games xD thats why i love your channel and twitch streams! :)
I played this game so much as a kid, this is one hell of a blast from the past
I'm happy my bad mood will be stopped by the fantasy worlds of Mr. 🐸
Loved playing Urbz during my middle school days lol
The narration waa totally unhinged , it got me 😂
I rented the Urbz from Family Video way back when and I only remember being confused and young enough to keep playing regardless
“Mazuiko”? Wow, “Bad Girl”
God I remember absolutely loving this game. This and the sims 2 psp game were such good memories.
Gosh, I haven't played this game in like 17 years. All I remember is some guy on a rooftop taming ferrets?
The neck-scratch-to-tickle tactic is an all time power move.
Sounding very very froggy in this video, Mr. Bian.
Sims 2 Castaway was a banger, I hope AA tries it, if he hasn't already.
Truly the Patrons are the sudden but pleasant backrub that make all this possible.
just the way you say things is so funny to me. love it
The absolute pain in his voice at 1:14 as he reads that line it fantastic.
I remember playing the gameboy version of this growing up, the fact that the actual real version fell so deep in to the uncanny valley never fails to unnerve me, like I'm being gaslit.
I'm late but I loved that BPD joke, as someone who told myself that same lie for almost an entire decade.
kinda curious what you would do with the sims medieval
play it, id hope
Good memories from this and all console Sim games.
Froggy RUclipsr guy, i hope you became famous. I see your videos in my feed all the time and watch them but i still have no idea who you are yet you've impacted my life so much to the point i hold out for another video from that strange frog like popular person
Ahh, neon east as your first area. A true connoisseur
Only you can make Sims as unhinged and interesting as the urbz fashion is
I played so much of this game with my cousin back in the day, a split-screen sims game was amazingly fun and janky! XD
I used to play this game with my little sister back in the day. The nostalgia is real!
Great Sims game if you aspire to transform your character into an eternal adolescent Capitol City buffoon.
The ambiguousamphibian’s videos are like the comfort food of RUclips. Always a good day with a new upload!
Still feels weird to me knowing that kink, bondage and strippers are canonically in the sims universe
One of my favorites thank you for this blessing
I love this game! My favorite district has to be the neon one. It's so my style!
Watching you play this again made me question my existence.
Geez This is a blast from the past.
Loved this game on the ps2.
Right up there with mortal kombat deception and monster hunter.
13:40 yet another good use of Future Joust - Powerwalkin'
when i finally got a 360 last year, this is one of the first games i bought, i reallly enjoy it for its weirdness
I have never seen anyone dance so hard before
he sounds like he's gonna cry any second now from how popular he becomes
Pink Kermit the frog dancing is wild to watch
People lag... And Chad dances. When will he stop dancing?
You better believe as a baby weeb, I picked Neon East as my starting area. I liked The Urbz, honestly. It wasn't the most robust or challenging game, but hopping around all the different districts and meeting all of the goofy locals never stopped being enjoyable (aside from maybe the Black Eyed Peas' district because they had no real character to them). And you know what? Maybe some day, I WILL ferret-wrangle my way to superstardom!
10:37 You should get a Turbo controller. I don't know what the availability of an Xbox one is, but I had a really nice Mad Catz Programmable one for Gamecube. Ironically, my cats knocked it off a coffee table and killed it, and now the only Turbo controllers made for the Cube are for stinky Smash players, who don't need programmable inputs, so it can only mash the face buttons and the start button. It's a depressing state of affairs, but it kinda almost half gets the job done.
This was great I remember roleplaying as a skater
