    Welcome to Madness Season 3: Best PS1 Games! We're trying to decide not only what are the best games that released on the PlayStation 1, but which is THE best game on the PSX. In this episode it's two powerhouses of Capcom and Konami, Metal Gear Solid vs Silent Hill, but who will win?
    In this season we have two guests:
    Caddicarus: bit.ly/2SdipZN
    Barry Kramer: bit.ly/2DZOCkc
    Madness is a discussion/debate show where we decide what we think is best in any given category of video games, movies, food or anything else. We make a tournament style bracket, and the winning subject of each discussion goes onto the next round until we find a winner.

    In defense of Caddicarus, I don't think he's intentionally trying to dominate the discussion or disrespect the rest of the panel. He just seems like an energetic guy who's passionate about expressing his opinions whereas the rest of the panel, especially Jirard, are simply less confrontational and more passive in a debate environment, allowing themselves to be talked over more frequently. On several occasions throughout these 2 episodes, he's either apologized for interrupting, stopped himself when someone else has taken a firm foothold in the discussion, or been subdued by Furst's command over the panel. I understand why people may be put off by his personality, but I find it adds some much needed heat to these debates, especially ones like this where it could have easily become a very boring MGS circle-jerk without his input. Compared to Alex, he's not nearly as bombastic, and I appreciate his ability to play the fence.

      Thank you. I feel he honestly is a bit too excited by all of this and I'll explain why.
      He's the only member of the whole HB and NB clan as such living abroad so seeing Shane and Jirad after so long he is like... Happy to see them. He also is doing something,like you said,that's apart of madness, explaining what he means.
      And yes. I'd admit it. He is basically got verbal diarrhoea. But he is a lot better in this than the first one

    Forrest is doing a great job as mediator. When people come forward with blunt, unexplained comments like "silent hill is boring" or "goldeneye sucks" which discourage reasonable discussion, he's the first to jump in and be like "ok, explain what you mean by that." He does a lot to keep the brainless mudslinging to a minimum, props for that.

    • @rj78678
      @rj78678 5 лет назад +5

      @@DiabloCloud Jirard definitely had an argument lined up, but leading with an inflammatory statement using words like boring or stupid puts people on the defensive and risks having the people who disagree dig into their position because they feel attacked. There is a better way to lead the argument Jirard made is all I'm saying. Forrest was good to jump in and try and cut off the defensive back and forth that was about to happen (which still almost happened anyway with Caddy coming back with "you're wrong" in reponse). You could tell by the tension in the rest of the episode that Jirard's opening comment set a rough atmosphere for reasonable debate, and it's only because all the guys in the room (including Jirard himself) are reasonable dudes that the whole thing didn't devolve into a less reasonable discussion.

    As someone who complained on the first episode of this season - This one was far easier to digest. The overall group dynamic has absolutely improved and they really took the time to analyze these two games. Seeing as he was the main name I mentioned last time, I absolutely have to compliment Caddy for his patience and focus. Having watched his videos, I know he's super fast paced and I must apologize. At no point do I feel he's made any bad points, It took this video to make me realize he naturally moves quicker than the group, which led to this disjointed feeling. You can definitely see him evening out with the group and I can't commend him enough for that. Great episode guys!

    • @karolinks5718
      @karolinks5718 5 лет назад +1

    Yes, a win. I really appreciate Caddicarus talked so excitedly about the one he wasn't voting for just to make sure it got its props. These episodes have been a great reminder about just how good the playstation 1's game selection was.

  • @scottshanbom
    @scottshanbom 5 лет назад +70

    Some people are going after Caddy, but honestly, I’d much rather have someone like him rather than Alex (no offense Alex). He does need to calm down a bit, but he is clearly passionate while still observing the validity of other people’s concerns. One thing that Alex did that always bothered me was that he picked a side and fought for it to the end. What makes Madness enjoyable, to me at least, is knowing that the arguments can shift a person’s perspective, and Caddy is much more open to change than Alex was. Hopefully Lee reeled him in a bit to get his excitement down a little, but he is still super knowledgeable and entertaining.

    • @karolinks5718

    This series has really shown me how much I love Jirard as a gamer.

      You're right, but Jirard stops him just enough. Super Beard Bros is great because of that, and when they have guests they always have a voice thanks to the synergy between Alex and Jirard. The problem would be, everytime Alex and Jirard agree, that vote would win.

      Lost me with Alex but Caddy is great.
      Jared establishing the “essence of the N64” thing thats become a meme was a genuinely good, albeit informal way to route discussion away from game design so they had to think about what made the N64 fun as a console on its cultural impact which changed with each game.
      Just like how in the first episode this season they established that they’re voting for “the best game that happens to be in PS1” so that keeps things formally organized and facilitated stuff like this awesome episode.

      @@DiabloCloud you make a good point but the structute of Madness as a relatively loosely moderated and casual discussion kinda means that those present are just going to talk as much as they normally would. In every group discussion there will just be people who talk more or less. For better or worse that's just how the chips will fall.
      Also, isn't Shane just so damn efficiant when he speaks up? He says relatively little but when he does speak it almost always contributes greatly to the discussion and brings up an excellent point. It's like how a scalpel is so small but still cuts a person open as well as a sword.

  • @justins5666
    @justins5666 5 лет назад +37

    Honest critique of this show here: I think the editing is kinda lackluster, especially when it comes to inserting the scenes from the video games (not the inlaid ones that pop up while they are talking, the ones that actually interrupt the discussion). Most of the time the game footage comes off as disconnected, random, and doesn’t add anything interesting or funny.
    Example of what I mean: in this episode while they were deep into a discussion about Silent Hill it cuts to a clip from Metal Gear Solid. It made no sense - it had no context within the discussion that it interrupted. I think this show could go from good to great if the editor spent more time digging up relevant clips and placing them in at the correct moments.

    Didn't play SH for the first time until a couple of months ago, but I think it succeeds at being a game more than MGS does. MGS is brilliant, but it really is cinematic to the point of fracturing the medium that it exists in at times due to how often you're passively experiencing it. All of the horror and world building in SH is experienced in game, and it brings a cerebral horror to gaming that Resi never dabbled in.

    At one point they're discussing how one of the biggest things MGS has over SH is the narrative, and everyone acted like MGS was objectively better, but I really must disagree.
    All of the twists and turns in the MGS narrative are largely laid bare, and you can keep up provided you're paying enough attention SH had a story that still left you asking questions after the credits roll, and it's not because the plot wasn't there or it was in any way inferior, it's because GOOD STORYTELLING makes you reflect on what you just experienced, and fosters discussion and debate, and hopefully you've learned a little through it all. MGS is an amazing game and a good story, don't get me wrong, but it is NOT on the same level of storytelling that SH is. Kojima's written some good stuff, but his best stories were definitely the next two games.

    Nice, I love MGS so much (I'm sure profile pic didn't give it away). The Cyber Ninja/Gray Fox story and hand-to-hand boss fight is unparalleled, in my opinion. I remember feeling a bit spooked by the Cyber Ninja before his story is revealed the first time I played, especially going down that bloody hallway with the weird distorted noises in the background. Also funny they bring up David Lynch because in the codec conversation with Sniper Wolf before the second fight she actually uses a quote from the Lynch movie Blue Velvet, "I'm going to send you a love letter... do you know what that is? It's a bullet straight from my gun to your heart."

      In comparison: SEGA sold about 8 million consoles with the Mega Drive, the PS1 sold 40 Million. Oh, and SNES sold about 8 million as well, but those include all other regions as well.

      FFVII is one of the most iconic PS1 games along with MGS, but FFVII is no where near as good as FFIX, imo.

This is all just my opinion though, and I don't expect anyone to agree with me. All great games still.

    Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid are two amazing games on the PlayStation. RE2, MGS and TR4 were the first games I played on PS1 so MGS stuck with me early on, but SH left me with a bigger impact. If you look at these two as franchises Metal Gear is bigger and did greater thing as Silent Hill derailed pretty quickly. It's hard to decide between the two, if a gun was held to my head which one to erase of the two I think I would let them pull the trigger on me. Okay, maybe SH is more dear to my heart.

    I sadly want to disagree with the outcome of this but to me this is an excellent matchup from a time where (as barry stated) Konami was something to be impressed about!
    Honestly Jirard's first comment really stunned me, calling SH boring and comparing it to RE2. The type of survival horror genre legacy it left was way more psychological and slow paced, working with the graphical limitations at the time and being off-putting (even in a cheesy way) to evoke that feeling. Growing up with both series really showed me how different they are at their core despite being under the same label. Not the correct show for it, but instead of a debate i'd love to see a kind retrospect from people who fully played both series on their history and impact to their subsequent downfalls.
    I think it says a lot that Kojima wanted to work on the SH series and bring it back to its roots.
    Once again a little sad seeing this particular matchup so early and not getting both games a chance to be compared to others first (also that the table didnt have experience with the matchup) but i'm glad to see them both on here for best PS1 game. Public did me proud.

    the whole thing about the guard mechanics only being used once isnt completely true. so yeah the water and snow foot prints onlt happen the once because your only in water or snow with guards once, but as barry said the environment changes with new challenges. like the weaponless room, but other areas are the wolfs before the sniper wolf fight, you can either kill them or use a special item to get past them easily, and also the catwalks around metal gear itself, if you run on the wrong parts it makes noise alerting guards a mile away. so there are other areas where you have to be on guard about the environment.
