My nephew was into tornadoes and my wife bought this game for the Wii when he was watching me playing the PS3 version. He thought it was so cool that you play as the tornado.
As a huge Sly Cooper fan, I can't believe I've never heard of this game! The art style, cutscenes, and voice acting give the exact same vibes. Even the UI is Sly Cooper coded. Great find dude! I will have to check this one out
Great find, these were the last days of gaming where game studios could "afford" to make these weird, random ass games. Unfortunately, by the Ps3 era the term "AAA" game was starting to become a more used term and gaming studios like this one had to find someone to buy them out instead of being able to continue making silly, goofy games. These games definitely still exist, but mainly on Steam and not on a big platform, or maybe there is, idk I'm old.
i agree, i think the ps4 and ps3 gen has AAA and indie and very little in between. PS2 era was the best for obscure gems. PS3 era introduced many amazing new IPs that are now just milked and remade into the 2020s
Just wanted to say that I’ve been loving the playstation retrospectives. It’s been so fun to be taken back to the ps3 days and to see you play through a delectable variety of ps3 gems. Thanks Ryan!
I had a dentist office with PS3’s and the ong two games they had was this tornado game and pure that you could play and I remember having a lot of fun with this game
Never knew this game was a thing till I got to watch this video. Sly Cooper style cutscenes and character designs seems to fit it very well, plus the katamari gameplay is also fun. Thanks for the video Ryan, hope you keep finding these rare gems. 😌🙏
This game was on sale during the 360 store shut down so I picked it up for $5. I thought this game was ridiculous. Thanks for showing this one some light.
I’m surprised so many people didn’t know anything about this game. It released such a long time ago, and on every console at the time! Especially as PS3 enthusiasts…
That game is actually pretty cool. I also did not know of it until recently before the Xbox 360 store front closed down. They had it on sale for like $4 or $5 and I decided to give it a try after I looked it up and saw that the physical copy was way more expensive. After I download it, I thoroughly enjoy it. I am glad you are giving it some shine Ryan for the people like us that had no idea about it. Happy gaming brother!
I was junior in high school in 2009. Time is flyin. I never played this game but just from this video I can see the spyro and sly DNA spread thoughout which is nice to see. Crazy how those two games and crash impacted the industry for decades afterwards.
Your amusement will slowly turn to horror as you begin hearing it in every single action movie (and many games) out there. Sound producers have run this joke into the ground. I used to really enjoy this inside joke of a scream...but I now find it very distracting. Any major release in the last 25 years has a 95% chance of containing the scream: Star Wars, LOTRs, Marvel, etc.
@@deltron2772 That's the thing. I'm absorbed in a gripping battle scene and here comes the goofy Wilhelm Scream to pull me out of it. It has its place...but should not be at the cost of the story.
Had this on the Wii as a kid, no clue why, but I seem to remember not being able to get past the "connect your nunchuk" screen for some reason and gave up lol. A couple years ago when I decided to play some old Wii games I decided to try this one as I remember not having actually played it all, but I didn't even finish the first level as I got bored, I guess something just didn't click with me. I'm playing Destroy All Humans and hopefully Katamari at some point, so maybe those'll give me the itch to come back, third try's the charm as they say. Cool series!
Very cool, this is one of the games I'm always on the lookout for. I know I would enjoy it becaus I love Katamari and been a bit obsessed with weather from early childhood. No this is not metrologicly accurate but it looks really fun.
King Fu Factory sounds familiar. It is the same one mentioned in a documentary video about the infamous developer of Yandere Simulator, Alex Mahan aka Yandere Dev, who apparently worked there for a few years.
Why do I keep hearing part of the melody to Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas? The part that goes “Once again, as in olden days Happy golden days of yore.”
I always saw this on the shelf at EB games/ GameStop back in the day, but it was like 50 bucks, which I thought was overpriced at the time. I did end up picking it up years after somewhere else for a cheaper price, but it is definitely a hidden gem.
This could have been a cool curiousity to check out on a whim, but as of Dec 2024, the PS3 version of this game is worth $125 CIB on pricecharting ... and that is just insanity! So I will look for the $20 Wii version instead.
Yeah, I'm just gonna put it on my 3rd PS3. That one is the hacked one (Slim). My main PS3 is a Super Slim, still on OFW, and I have the 60 GB one I occasionally use for PS2 games and PS Plus games that won't fit on the Super Slim, also OFW.
Thanks for the breakdown! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
I might be blind, but I keep waiting for deleted scenes and they don't seem to get uploaded on Patreon? The one for 50 Cent game still is nowhere to be seen

You're nephew was a psycho in the making. Into games? Ok. Into tornadoes? Psychopathy
You’re one of those PS dudes that goes deep into games even the ones that we’ve never heard. Respect 👊🏽
Except everyone knows about this game
Me too, I love exploring games on my own, regardless of console, age and graphics.
@ that’s true
@@amazingflavour I agree and I didn’t even knew that Pain was a PS3 exclusive
Respect for making gaming videos? Lol

Never heard of this game until today. I definitely can see the Sly Cooper references with the art style.

I know these videos aren't getting many views, but I do love this type of content. It's what makes RUclips feel special.
Those cutscene are very Sly Cooper. The dialogue, music and how the clips are edited. The dialogue delivery is definitely Sly.
Please keep doing these o watched your one on folklore and immediately bought it, doing the same thing now with this one
What a convoluted plot about a tornado 😅
Ryan you're hilarious! "I've never met a tornado, and certainly dont like what they stand for" 😂
This is definitely a hidden gem in my opinion!
Funny, I have actually heard about this one, but I remember it from being on the Wii. Cute little game that I always wanted to add to my collection.
Favourite series on RUclips! Keep coming, Ryan. Another great video 🔥
I just recently found out what the Wilhelm scream was 😂 it makes me laugh every time! Great vid you should cover Naughty Bear next 😂.

@@antiquecardboard Heard it a million times in my life and it still makes me laugh. Thanks for the heads up 👍🏽

Thank you so much for posting this. I posted this game like 5 times on Reddit and people barely like it
This is the exact type of Mystic content I’m here for. Please play all the esoteric games you have in this format for us.
really enjoy this series so far, ik there’s a lot of smaller titles on the ps4 that’ll be fun to watch you get to
i remember playing this game as kid!!!!!!!
We all gonna buy this game now LOL
Good luck. I was telling people about this game when it was 30-40 bucks. Is soo much fun
Lmfao🤣
@@Joelda23I picked it up a month ago for $50 CIB and I just checked eBay, wow that skyrocketed quickly.
After this video:
Tornado outbreak stocks ↗️😂

I played this on the PC as a kid. Holy shit what a throwback
This game is hella fun! I got it digitally on xbox 360 before the store closed.
Love this series please keep it going!!
love these videos hope you keep them coming
Really enjoying this series can’t wait for more u should do a video on platinuming jak 1 with the new trophy list tough love
Zephyr looks just like Rosie from a Bug's Life, just without the legs 😀
I love these types of videos
Another fun looking game. Can’t wait for the next video
It will blow you away. I remember playing this long ago. It was better, than I thought.
Always love hearing your thoughts Mystic.
Awesome PSR as usual! Next vid exploring old memory cards PLZ 🙏
Looks like a pretty good time, Big fan of that art style for sure.
Love this new series. You should play Mister Mosquito on PS2 Ryan
Please continue the PSR series! These are great.
"Sometimes, MYSTIC, the mission chooses us."
He couldn't have been more right... As always.
You can definitely see the Wrath of Cortex DNA in this game too.
Very cool, this is one of the games I'm always on the lookout for. I know I would enjoy it becaus I love Katamari and been a bit obsessed with weather from early childhood. No this is not metrologicly accurate but it looks really fun.
Cool twist on Katamari :3
Another Amazing video
Loved this can’t wait for the next one 😆
You just convinced me to nab a Xbox 360 copy for on the cheap. Definitely checking this one out!
This game was already expensive Mystic....now, there's no way I'll be able to add it to my collection 😂
Well you can thank RUclipsrs for ruining the hobby of retro video game collecting
Got it a month ago and I’m so glad I did. eBay rn is 👀
Because of this video you have gotten me to wanna find and buy this game now 😃
More weird games plz
I wonder what the plot twist is on this game
damn the physcial of this game is expensive :,)
The narration is a play on twilight zone or the outer limits.this game updated to new consoles could be very very cool
King Fu Factory sounds familiar. It is the same one mentioned in a documentary video about the infamous developer of Yandere Simulator, Alex Mahan aka Yandere Dev, who apparently worked there for a few years.
This game has been on my backlog for a year or so since I got it
I had no idea this game existed, seems really cool. Aside from Sly it reminds me of Psychonauts esthetics.
Why do I keep hearing part of the melody to Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas? The part that goes “Once again, as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore.”
Good god, i loved this game back in the day .. 🌟
I always saw this on the shelf at EB games/ GameStop back in the day, but it was like 50 bucks, which I thought was overpriced at the time. I did end up picking it up years after somewhere else for a cheaper price, but it is definitely a hidden gem.
No!!! That is NOT Solid Snake!!!
Your content is good.
Love your vids, dude!
Nice find!
I love your videos mate!
I finally bought it for the Wii. I really enjoy it.
i remember this coming off katamari damacy/we
This could have been a cool curiousity to check out on a whim, but as of Dec 2024, the PS3 version of this game is worth $125 CIB on pricecharting ... and that is just insanity! So I will look for the $20 Wii version instead.
i had this game on the wii. super fun
Kinda knew who the bad guy was but I wouldn’t mind giving this a go.
I never heard of this game but it seems fun
Love this series from ps3
I just bought that game on xbox 360 last month and just beat it 2 weeks ago, what are the odds
$130.00-USD 180.00 used on Amazon.
The dude Sony collection is impressive.
0:00 Where did you get that PlayStation 3 sign?
I've been looking for this game in the wild for several years and I've never found it. I've only ever found the wii version
Just grabbed me a copy New and Sealed for $99.99, all the other listings were over $100.00
On his way to making a F5 Tornado
I checked the game oneline on eBay. The cheapest one is 41. Everything else is $80 Plus. It's a rare game
I paid like 40 last year for a cib copy
Yeah, I'm just gonna put it on my 3rd PS3. That one is the hacked one (Slim).
My main PS3 is a Super Slim, still on OFW, and I have the 60 GB one I occasionally use for PS2 games and PS Plus games that won't fit on the Super Slim, also OFW.
Been wanting to get this for my son
Is the voice actor at 10:40 the same as Spider-Man from Web of Shadows?
I'm playing ps3 right now as we speak
Thanks for the breakdown! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
PS3 ERA'S RULES!.
Checked out the prices for a used copy, and died a little bit inside 😅
We eating good today 😤🙏
This was painful to watch.
What is the background music in the video from? It sounds so familiar!
Nimbus!
I bought this game off the Xbox 360 store before it shutdown. 😅
I was trying to pick this one up if I ever found a decent price. I guess it’ll rise at least $20 after this one
Yep now my chances of getting a copy are out the window
Keeps saying on his PS podcast he doesn't have time to play new games. Then plays PS3 games.
Can we get a mega ton counter 😂
I miss my PS3, its broken with no repair 😥😥
What happened to it?
@Vik1919 the Cell processor died
I might be blind, but I keep waiting for deleted scenes and they don't seem to get uploaded on Patreon? The one for 50 Cent game still is nowhere to be seen
I'll just see if I can emulate this before I copy files over to my JB PS3 Slim
M Y C H I L D H O O D!!!!
