Animorphs to people who haven't read the books: Scrappy kids turn into animals Animorphs in reality: High school students get mentally and emotionally scarred by the horrors of war
it's also way weirder than people realize, like I missed reading any of the books as a kid, but someone I dated ended up describing a bunch of the lore to me when I got older, and it was so much more bizarre than I ever could've anticipated, I missed out, tbh
Fun fact: Animorphs had some questionable quality transforming action figures that were made by Hasbro and marketed under the Transformers brand for a short time before becoming an independent toy line. Because of this, Animorphs is considered a continuity within the Transformers multiverse. Bonus fact: a few animal-to-animal Animorphs figures were designed and cancelled, but then repurposed and slightly redesigned as Transformers: Beast Wars Mutants.
So how do the fans explain it? or is it just "that one time kids turned into animals and the transformers happened to be in a different part of the continent so it's technically cannon I guess"?
@@DoitForTheLolz1 The Animorphs universe is a parallel dimension where the ability to transform happened in organic beings instead of robots. Their inclusion in the Beast Wars toyline actually meant that the number of show and comic related robot figures released in those waves was reduced to make room for the Animorphs characters.
Funny I loved beast wars when I was a kid as the TV show and the toys. Never liked the anamorph books as I was more of a Ghostbumps on scholastic book fair day guy myself.
That batman game looks like its following game conventions of today, I mean the close up walking, the bassy sound design, the pretty good graphics for the time, an open world where events are triggered at certain times and you have to do your research. and also did anyone notice that that cape has physics? you can tell someone put a lot into this game. I feel so sad that someone made this and it didn't fulfill their expectations. maybe it was too ambitious for the time, but it looks like if you tried to make an arkham style game for the ps1.
My thoughts exactly. Too bad the source material was a widely derided box office flop, it might have done better if it was based on a better Batman movie.
It certainly is proto-Arkham game. Gameplay is also abhorrent so it cannot be disregarded as complete trash. More like failed attempt to achieve something (then) unachievable.
@@TheLateLordKardok it sucks because Lucas film used to never care about it before Disney took control. Before LucasFilm would provide the soundtrack and sound effects for fans to use! Now Disney would sue you for thinking about star wars without paying them
That crow game is garbage, but having a button to find items in a fixed camera game is kind of genius. Especially in that game since the rooms don’t make sense
I dont know what I expected an Animorphs game to be like, but it certainly wasn't that. Fun fact, the morphing was NEVER as smooth as the covers -or that cinematic- showed, it was very much body horror. Except for Cassie, iirc she had better control over it than the others. That series got a lot darker than one might think...
The arthropods were always the worst. Spoilers for the end in case people care I got all this from the wiki so I could be wrong. After they kill Visser and get rid of the yeerks they go looking for Ax out in space and discover he’s been consumed by a hivemind. Jake is all messed up after the death of either Rachel or Cassie, and he kamikazes his ship into the hivemind to kill it and himself once and for all. For kids!
Didn't they give a bunch of disabled kids Animorph powers at one point and then literally all of them died because the original Animorphs sent them on a suicide mission to serve as a distraction?
Pretty sure it has a super depressing ending and the author shrugged and went fuck you this is war if you don't want it to happen vote in your elections and goddamn that's a bold move
When I played the game at a local game store as a kid, I found it funny how someone thought those words sounded cool in a name (the space in-between doesn't help). Never really thought our language was fitting for fantasy naming, but maybe other nords feel the same way about their languages. At least they have deeper mythology to draw cool names from than we do. Our mythology is mainly used for swear words. Well, at least it provides some entertainment to hear people mangle our lexicon in strange ways.
@@Madpotator I dunno, it certainly depends on the context and the tone of your fantasy, but I'd say Finnish can be spun to have a mystical quality to it. So much so, in fact, that Tolkien took part of his inspiration from the language when inventing elvish for Lord of the Rings, fun fact. This alone I think colours the perception of the use of Finnish in the context of fantasy. It sounds more whimsical, because it was literally used as a backbone for fey tongue in the most influential fantasy novel of all time. I still think there are some words I like though, like I always preferred "Hiisi" to "Goblin", the hissy pronounciation just gives off a more sinister vibe. Also, "Örkki" is just how the word "Orc" was made to be said, let's be honest. From a modern perspective though, Finnish is just a weird language to listen to, because it one of the least formally spoken languages. Like, it can sound very beautiful and poetic if you speak it to the letter and how it was designed, but because it's so stupid complicated, most people just mangle and twist it to make it easier to use. I think that, most of all, is what contributes to how ugly the language can come off, because a good 70% of spoken Finnish is spoken through so many dialectic spins, shortcuts and general bastardization of the formal version.
Animorphs was a big part of my elementary school days. I learned a bit about animal biology, a bit about the questionable ethical choice to force someone to live the rest of their life as a rodent because you don't agree with their tactics, and a lot about how disappointing it is when an author loses interest 50 plus books in and rushes to a (really dumb) finish line just to promote a new, different series.
@@creepypato3984 late reply but if youre referring to jk rowling being a TERF, shes a big one alright. wrote some sort of insane essay in response to some covid doc referring to, like, menstruation stuff gender neutrally where she said taking out the women part was oppression or something? idk, its been a while meanwhile iirc animorphs author has a daughter whos trans so
Every time I see The Crow game, I learn something new about how bad it truly is. I really dodged a bullet back then, I *love* The Crow and really wanted the game, but man, it's horrendous.
did you know: According to Jay Barnson, the former senior programmer of SingleTrac, the Animorphs game did not start out as a platformer and had a completely different plot. Due to the Columbine massacre and the media's claims of the video game industry being partly to blame for the tragedy, Scholastic and K.A. Applegate, the author of the book series, asked for the game to be redesigned so that they could distance themselves from anything resembling “violent video games,” even though the books themselves featured violence too.
I get what happened around then, but it still feels like you're drinking stupid juice if you're going this far to distance yourself from "violent video games" all because of a tragic event that made the news.
Good to see this is the first of a number of streams, because I can think of more bad PS1 games off the top of my head that could be showcased: - Cheesy - Cosmic Race - Miracle Space Race/Rascal Racers - Santa Claus Saves the Earth - Shrek Treasure Hunt - The Simpsons Wrestling - Spice World
1:22:15 Frankenstein is the doctor's surname. A major portion of the novel is the monster perceiving himself to be the doctor's son and attempting to take on human cultural tropes - he should therefore hold his father's surname, and thus, the monster is also Frankenstein.
1:23:29 Vinny: Y'know what's not fake? William Defoe's confusingly large hog Me: Ye it's weird that's he's so endowed- Vinny: So he owns this farm.. Me: oH *THAT* hog
So, the voice actor for Sean, Jake, and Commander(?) in Chaos Break is the guy who voiced Brisco from Michigan: Report from Hell. Remember, the guy who had one of the best drunken meltdowns in video game history.
Teras Kasi is the first video game I remember playing. My mom has a picture of me playing against my uncle (who owned it), and repeatedly claims that I beat him nearly every time. I was 2.
I was born in the 80's, I vividly remember Celebrity Deathmatch. It was so great staying up late as a kid watching clay get torn to shreds. And now I know where I got my personality and affinity for blood and death. Huh.
that batman and robin game used to scare the ever-loving shit out of me because of the slow and minor key/low pitched soundtrack and sound design, the blocky graphics, the batmobile and the draw distance surrounded in darkness, the slowness of yourself and the enemies; it was all just so bleak and dark and it was too much for babby me. at least the movie was funny though
i love how nobody acknowledged how wildly fucked up the animorphs series actually is. like vinny if you didn't know this series was like childhood-trauma levels of fucked. transformation scenes in particular were graphic and horrible. and the series had a really desolate ending apparently the author said it's because animorphs is about war and war doesn't have happy endings. fun 90s books for the kids!
@@LeviathanRX Which at that point, they should've just instead localized Dragon Ball Z Legends instead since that one was more faithful and slightly better polished
IIRC, the Barbie Explorer game was on some demo discs included with the 2000 redesigned PlayStation console (it was even featured on the console's box), so it was probably the first game people played after buying their system. Wonder if they're still into gaming today.
Guys come on its just a boring lame licensed game, and i bet people who played it for the first time just thought their skills sucked instead of game being sloppy
That The Crow game made Brandon Lee turn in his grave. Also the soundtrack for The Crow is amazing indeed, it made me fall in love with NIN when I saw the movie when I was 12. I own it on vinyl now and occasionally still listen to it. The soundtrack for this game however...
Your skill level is off the charts. I'm in awe of how you can navigate through those challenging levels with such ease. It's inspiring to watch and motivates me to improve my own gaming abilities. I've been a fan of your channel for a while now. I just wanted to say that your content never disappoints. Whether it's a Let's Play or a tutorial. I always enjoy watching and learning from you.
Same! Also a lot of the music and sounds from playstation games in general. There's just something about it. It was all dark and slightly strange. I love it
@@ruadeil_zabelin Ugh, right? I broke so many discs and an entire PS1 just by leaving games on to listen to the music while I did stuff (Internet was really bad back then lmao)
@@kaydwessie296 I wish I could still play games that much, it just feels like I don't have the stamina for it anymore. Then again, I haven't played the kind of games I did as a high schooler for years, most of what are reaction-based action games like Monster Hunter, Dark Souls, etc.
Holy shit I remember Animorphs from when I was in like 6th grade. I only read like the first 5 out of order and stopped when I found out that there were apparently over 50 books in the series.
Man, I loved Animorphs as a kid. Good stuff, got real dark for a series aimed at kids sometimes. Too bad it had a lot of low-quality ghostwritten books and some weird plotlines that never went anywhere, like that time they went to Atlantis and then never mentioned it again. And the ending sucked.
For the love of god DBZ: Ultimate Battle 22. I had this nightmare when I was babular, because I loved DBZ and had no methods of finding video game reviews. Even then I realized, as a young child who had no eye for quality, "This game is BAD. Like, BAD bad." I TRIED to play it more, just because I was a kid with not much to do, but I'd stop after like 10 minutes of being even more bored than not playing the game. Then I got a PS2 and the DBZ Budokai games, and all was well. Sorry you had to be exposed to Ultimate Battle 22 Vin, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemies.
I actually have a physical copy of that animorphs game.... We use it tho as part of a shelf holder, watching Vinny trying to play that game has reminded me why we do such.
I rented that Barbie game from Blockbuster's way back as a kid because there wasn't any other game to rent that looked decent. Never finished it, hard as nails. Hate it.
Oh shit. I always wanted to see footage of the Celebrity Deathmatch game but never bothered much. Hoo boy... Also glad Dragon Ball games got way better later. It may be dooty poo poo games but it still sort of has that ps1 charm.
Even without the music and fanfare, just hearing the announcer proudly declare "Hoar" in that Warriors of Teras Kasi game makes me giggle. You know, I've heard that Hoar is really into Jizz music. Can't get enough of it.
Conceptually, the Batman and Robin game is pretty neat and has some surprising mechanics (the time system) It's just a shame that the execution is... yeah. Maybe if it was more Arkham-like.
Vinny, at 1:20:21 you talked about Williams Pig farm so I tried to google William Defoe's award winning Hog. But I'm not finding what I was expecting to...
wow i remember clearly when i was a kid and i was jelous of one of my friends cause he had dragon ball z ultimate battle 22 and remember watching a bit of him playing and me thinking it was so cool.....
@@0neDoomedSpaceMarine I know B&R isn't what most would consider a good movie. But it is entertainingly bad, and frankly I think Joel was aiming for that. He wanted to put some of the 60's style camp back into it, and his set designs are admittedly impressive if nonsensical. My only actual complaint is that Bane was some nobody criminal who was just dumb muscle, when every other version has his intellect as a defining feature.
At first I did not like Batman & Robin, but after exploring and finding clues on the city I started to understand, and even enjoy the soundtrack. Even though it sucks how it has a time limit, but with enough clues one could kind of guess the next targeted area I needed to go, and find the diamond early.
3:45 "Eagles. I guess Eagles." Red Tailed Hawk. Tobias, one of the Animorphs. Perhaps the most tragic. 14:00 "35 year old man playing Barbie games, here we go" Ha! Barbie detective on the PC was a hidden gem of a point and click adventure.
"I like the Akira song that goes Bum Bum" I think Vinny has only listened to one album and all references he's made to music is something he heard on a street corner in Brooklyn. Edit: It's a joke probably but it sounds like he's thinking of Tetsuo's theme.
Akira Toriyama the author of DB did the character designs for Chrono Trigger and every Dragon Quest game, he also did the character designs for Blue Dragon
I feel really sorry for the guy accidentally killed Brandon Lee. It's a movie, it's all fake, you probably did this before, but this time, the shot was fatal, and that's just...that can't be easy on any magnitude.
38:13 Michael Massee fired the gun that killed Brandon Lee during the filming of The Crow. It had been fired earlier and the round had gotten stuck in the barrel, which was ejected into Lee when Massee later fired it. Not his fault - they were real guns with real bullets (blanks and dummies) and the prop guy(s) should have checked the guns every single time they were set down and picked back up. The Crow was Massee's debut film. Lee's death traumatized him so thoroughly that he took a break from acting for a year, never saw the film in his life, and said he still had nightmares about it 12 years later in 2005. Massee passed away in 2016 at the age of 64 from stomach cancer.
At a sleepover we convinced the evangelical kid's mom that MTV Celebrity Deathmatch was just a silly wrestling game. We ruined a child's chance at heaven and I feel awful. Thanks Anna Nicole Smitch and Ron Jeremy!
I am sincerely sad that anyone believes that, and I am fairly religious myself. It's just a stupid video game. Besides, anyone who has actually read the Bible will know it's full of violence.
God, they wasted a perfect concept for the Animorphs game. There's this one game on PS2 where it's a modern revamp of the Altered Beast IP, and it's more or less an open world game where you shift through different forms for combat and exploration. They should have done something like that for Shattered Reality, where you unlock different morphs as the game progresses and you can revisit areas and open up new paths to get more stuff! That would've been perfect but they wasted it! Hell they show Tobias in the cutscenes of the game but you never get any sections where you use him to fly around and reach a goal that can't be acquired on foot.

like vinny if you didn't know this series was like childhood-trauma levels of fucked. transformation scenes in particular were graphic and horrible. and the series had a really desolate ending apparently the author said it's because animorphs is about war and war doesn't have happy endings. fun 90s books for the kids!
it was like as if watership down was _actually_ marketed at kids

I unfortunately used to own that DBZ game.
I still do. Picked it up as a kid AFTER playing Budokai... Seeing the ad on the back of the manual felt like a huge middle finger.
It was half decent when it FIRST came out in Japan, then Funimation decided to localize it like 10 years late
@@LeviathanRX Which at that point, they should've just instead localized Dragon Ball Z Legends instead since that one was more faithful and slightly better polished
That alarm in the Batman game really came for how shitty my laptop speakers are.
watching vinny play a barbie game and hearing something close to my name activates parts of my brain and i'm not sure they're good ones. 4/5 stars
The old lady in Joel's meme house stream had my name and it was fucking surreal (I mean, before he renamed her lmao)
IIRC, the Barbie Explorer game was on some demo discs included with the 2000 redesigned PlayStation console (it was even featured on the console's box), so it was probably the first game people played after buying their system. Wonder if they're still into gaming today.
Honestly it didn't seem that bad compared to most of the trash in this stream, just an inoffensive Crash Bandicoot clone
Guys come on its just a boring lame licensed game, and i bet people who played it for the first time just thought their skills sucked instead of game being sloppy
Please do another part! I love watching your megadrive/genesis and ps1 gameplays, regardless of how shit they are lol. I can’t get enough sega and ps1
bump
"Resident Evil, Metal Gear, and Alien all rolled into one" sounds like a really solid game idea and it's a shame that it turned out to be Chaos Break.
That The Crow game made Brandon Lee turn in his grave. Also the soundtrack for The Crow is amazing indeed, it made me fall in love with NIN when I saw the movie when I was 12. I own it on vinyl now and occasionally still listen to it. The soundtrack for this game however...
I feel like animorphs is the game that your parents get you if they don't love you
Your skill level is off the charts. I'm in awe of how you can navigate through those challenging levels with such ease. It's inspiring to watch and motivates me to improve my own gaming abilities. I've been a fan of your channel for a while now. I just wanted to say that your content never disappoints. Whether it's a Let's Play or a tutorial. I always enjoy watching and learning from you.
Omg that PlayStation intro not only gave me nostalgia butterfly's but also made me sad to think I'm not that age anymore.
Life was so easy back then. When life shat on me I could just play an RPG for like 9 hours straight.
Same! Also a lot of the music and sounds from playstation games in general. There's just something about it. It was all dark and slightly strange. I love it
@@ruadeil_zabelin Ugh, right? I broke so many discs and an entire PS1 just by leaving games on to listen to the music while I did stuff (Internet was really bad back then lmao)
@@kaydwessie296 I wish I could still play games that much, it just feels like I don't have the stamina for it anymore. Then again, I haven't played the kind of games I did as a high schooler for years, most of what are reaction-based action games like Monster Hunter, Dark Souls, etc.
it finally happened, vinny finally shat on a game from my childhood that I loved (armorines) 😔
Holy shit I remember Animorphs from when I was in like 6th grade. I only read like the first 5 out of order and stopped when I found out that there were apparently over 50 books in the series.
Man, I loved Animorphs as a kid. Good stuff, got real dark for a series aimed at kids sometimes. Too bad it had a lot of low-quality ghostwritten books and some weird plotlines that never went anywhere, like that time they went to Atlantis and then never mentioned it again.
And the ending sucked.
Sh - shov - shovelware showcase is that you?
For the love of god DBZ: Ultimate Battle 22. I had this nightmare when I was babular, because I loved DBZ and had no methods of finding video game reviews. Even then I realized, as a young child who had no eye for quality, "This game is BAD. Like, BAD bad." I TRIED to play it more, just because I was a kid with not much to do, but I'd stop after like 10 minutes of being even more bored than not playing the game. Then I got a PS2 and the DBZ Budokai games, and all was well. Sorry you had to be exposed to Ultimate Battle 22 Vin, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemies.
I saw barbies bloody leg too.
“what did Carmen Electra do?” Be hot
OMG, that intro!! *tears and ASMR*
I actually have a physical copy of that animorphs game.... We use it tho as part of a shelf holder, watching Vinny trying to play that game has reminded me why we do such.
That Batman game almost look impressive compared to The Crow game.
34:07 I was hoping for a SPEEN moment right there.
I tend to like the "bad game" videos more than the food ones , I know the good ones ha
whoa dude you made a typo, gotta dislike you bro.
I rented that Barbie game from Blockbuster's way back as a kid because there wasn't any other game to rent that looked decent. Never finished it, hard as nails. Hate it.
Aw yeaaaaah! I've been waiting for Vinny to play Animorphs: Shattered Reality! I grew up with that game.
It's so bad. ^_^
Oh shit. I always wanted to see footage of the Celebrity Deathmatch game but never bothered much. Hoo boy... Also glad Dragon Ball games got way better later.
It may be dooty poo poo games but it still sort of has that ps1 charm.
god that intro is just so amazing, even all these years later
I'm officially too tired I really googled "willem dafoe pig farm" thinking i was gonna see some cool animals
Even without the music and fanfare, just hearing the announcer proudly declare "Hoar" in that Warriors of Teras Kasi game makes me giggle.
You know, I've heard that Hoar is really into Jizz music. Can't get enough of it.
I used to play the barbie explorer game to death when i was younger because it was the closest thing i could get to tomb raider
His prediction of 2021 was pretty dead on, very impressive
The Animorphs game felt more like a knockoff of Pitfall 3D: Beyond the Jungle.
That boot up gets me all the time
this man is about to shit on our collective childhoods
Conceptually, the Batman and Robin game is pretty neat and has some surprising mechanics (the time system)
It's just a shame that the execution is... yeah. Maybe if it was more Arkham-like.
@@Phoenixifyable Yeah, I realize that.
Probably should've just said (maybe if they worked out the issues).
No it needs to be souls-like haha
When you don't know if you wanna play Resident Evil, Metal Gear or Half-Life so you make all 3 into 1.
I'm sure that the reason that Barbie game had a decent cutscene and voice is cause they used the same people that do those direct to video movies.
Vinny, at 1:20:21 you talked about Williams Pig farm so I tried to google William Defoe's award winning Hog. But I'm not finding what I was expecting to...
ah yes another great stream from Steem-boathouse “Vinny” Vinesaucr
wow i remember clearly when i was a kid and i was jelous of one of my friends cause he had dragon ball z ultimate battle 22 and remember watching a bit of him playing and me thinking it was so cool.....
Such were dragon ball games back then
rip joel schumacher
He was actually a really good director, Falling Down and Lost Boys are fantastic films, and Batman & Robin can never take that away.
@@0neDoomedSpaceMarine I know B&R isn't what most would consider a good movie. But it is entertainingly bad, and frankly I think Joel was aiming for that. He wanted to put some of the 60's style camp back into it, and his set designs are admittedly impressive if nonsensical. My only actual complaint is that Bane was some nobody criminal who was just dumb muscle, when every other version has his intellect as a defining feature.
@@OtakuUnitedStudio what's impressive about "his" set design
Remember...for every Metal Gear Solid and Symphony of the Night, there were 5 of each of these.
I'll never know why people loved the PS1 so much...
At first I did not like Batman & Robin, but after exploring and finding clues on the city I started to understand, and even enjoy the soundtrack.
Even though it sucks how it has a time limit, but with enough clues one could kind of guess the next targeted area I needed to go, and find the diamond early.
omg that crow game and the half life anime girl metal gear solid game killed me, it was so funny lol
There’s actually a sixth-generation version of the Celebrity Deathmatch game with more characters, “better” “gameplay”, and Ron Jeremy.
Should've checked the options menu on Teras Kasi, I believe there was an option to turn the music off.
Teras Kasi is mentioned by name in the movie Solo. Yes, it’s canon
3:45 "Eagles. I guess Eagles."
Red Tailed Hawk. Tobias, one of the Animorphs. Perhaps the most tragic.
14:00 "35 year old man playing Barbie games, here we go"
Ha! Barbie detective on the PC was a hidden gem of a point and click adventure.
"I like the Akira song that goes Bum Bum"
I think Vinny has only listened to one album and all references he's made to music is something he heard on a street corner in Brooklyn.
Edit: It's a joke probably but it sounds like he's thinking of Tetsuo's theme.
(Vinesauce) Steven
The same guy who drew DBZ's characters actually did do the characters for Chrono Trigger!
And Dragon Quest, iirc.
Akira Toriyama the author of DB did the character designs for Chrono Trigger and every Dragon Quest game, he also did the character designs for Blue Dragon

14:38 “Welc-“ *skip* “WUH.”
14:49 “Press the- press the X- press the X button now. Pre-” “PEH.”
20:48 “The-“ “THUH.”
20:55 “The deh-“ “THUH DEH.”
I feel really sorry for the guy accidentally killed Brandon Lee. It's a movie, it's all fake, you probably did this before, but this time, the shot was fatal, and that's just...that can't be easy on any magnitude.
From the intro, title and the mansion thing I've thought that barbie game would be a Tomb Raider knockoff, not Crash Bandicoot.
Yeeeees. Finally someone had the courage to play Armorines: Project SWARM
Is animorphs just a re skin of crash bandicoot? That run animation is suspicious
38:13 Michael Massee fired the gun that killed Brandon Lee during the filming of The Crow. It had been fired earlier and the round had gotten stuck in the barrel, which was ejected into Lee when Massee later fired it. Not his fault - they were real guns with real bullets (blanks and dummies) and the prop guy(s) should have checked the guns every single time they were set down and picked back up.
The Crow was Massee's debut film. Lee's death traumatized him so thoroughly that he took a break from acting for a year, never saw the film in his life, and said he still had nightmares about it 12 years later in 2005.
Massee passed away in 2016 at the age of 64 from stomach cancer.
At a sleepover we convinced the evangelical kid's mom that MTV Celebrity Deathmatch was just a silly wrestling game. We ruined a child's chance at heaven and I feel awful. Thanks Anna Nicole Smitch and Ron Jeremy!
I am sincerely sad that anyone believes that, and I am fairly religious myself. It's just a stupid video game. Besides, anyone who has actually read the Bible will know it's full of violence.
@@OtakuUnitedStudio Jesus literally does some Pro-wrestler shit and throws tables everywhere at one point.
Haven't looked into it, but I'm 300% sure that Chaos Break's VA also did Michigan: Report From Hell. I'd recognize Brisco anywhere.
Looked it up, you are correct. Greg Irwin plays both Jake and Brisco.
@@OtakuUnitedStudio Awesome. Greg Irwin always delivers.
I can't stop hearing "BRUH" while Vinny playing The Crow game and I heard it way before Vinny pointed it out.
God, they wasted a perfect concept for the Animorphs game. There's this one game on PS2 where it's a modern revamp of the Altered Beast IP, and it's more or less an open world game where you shift through different forms for combat and exploration. They should have done something like that for Shattered Reality, where you unlock different morphs as the game progresses and you can revisit areas and open up new paths to get more stuff! That would've been perfect but they wasted it! Hell they show Tobias in the cutscenes of the game but you never get any sections where you use him to fly around and reach a goal that can't be acquired on foot.
