Watching Kev go through the sheer pain of getting Scammed then getting Scammed again then finally getting it resolved was worth watching the stream altho it was a pain for him it was Entertaining to us and the fact he even still played it despite the games Shortcomings really shows how much Kev Means as a Content Creator I think we can all Learn from this
"We have a brand-new villain with a brand-new backstory. What evil plan should we give him?" "What about the exact same plan as the series' usual villain?" "BRILLIANT."
You know this game starts strong when the very first cutscene of Sonic being crushed by the advanced physics boulders made me laugh both times that I viewed it.
It's like a "My First Sonic" game. Almost like they started making an actual Sonic game; then halfway through development they checked the shows demographic and decided "We need to make this easier."
That is kinda what happened plus a bunch of other stuff that Sega did that screwed the developers of this game, this game has a sad development history. If you're interested look up Sonic Synergy.
I’m sorry but they aren’t great movies, honestly I’m surprised people are more lenient on the movies than the games. Because aside from Rise of Lyric and Colors Ultimate they aren’t that terrible
@@theminecraft2516 Interest from general audiences is what can revive a series and bring in new fans, they aren’t amazing movies yes, but there mere popularity and box office growth is overall good for the franchise.
I want to thank you, for enduring the insanely painful game that is Sonic Boom. Holy shit I'm half way through, and the repeated dialog is already driving me insane, and I'm sure you cut the majority of them out lmao
Man the glitches in this game are hilarious. I burst into tears of laughter every time. Also the situation with this game is very bizarre. The game itself is a disaster and yet the TV has positive reviews(it has two seasons). I watched some of it and it is pretty funny. I prefer the 90s sonic shows(awesome childhood memories 😎👍🏼) but the Sonic Boom tv show was good.
I’m glad the boom games and tv show are in a different universe from the original games so now the we are back to the original universe we can leave the boom universe behind
Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric is one of those games that the story of the development cycle is nore interesting than the final product: The game started development by Big Red Button in early 2010's targeting next gen platforms (PS4, Xbox One and High End PCs). The game was going for the name "Sonic Synergy", with heavy focus on 4 players co-op multiplayer and story. The initial pitch was for this to be a origins story for Sonic and Eggman - something Sega at first wasn't keen on letting a western studio doing, but after some rework they found a middle group. Development was going swell, to the point some advanced prototypes, voice acting and gameplay footage was recorded. In fact there are a ton of gameplay trailers already made for the annouced of Sonic Synergy, however... In 2013 Sega struck a deal with Nintendo to release the next three Sonic exclusively on Wii U. Two of said games became Sonic Lost World, and Sonic & Mario at thw Rio 2016 Olympic Games, both developed by Sega. For the third game Sega had nothing, so they forced BRB to port Sonic Synergy to the Wii U. The problem was Synergy was made using Cry Engine, an engine the Wii U didn't support. They had to get in contact with Crytek to make a special version of Cry Engine to work on the Wii U. During this time Sega also made a deal to make a TV show and toy line based on the Sonic Synergy, and because of this, demanded the overall of the game and name be changed to match the TV Show brand. This is why the Sonic Boom TV Show is considered so good, but the Wii U was awful, BRB had to crunch hard to remake their entire project to fit the new vision in a limited time.
You know why it took him so long to download Sonic Boom? Because most of the raw data is the voice lines of these characters who dont wanna stop talking!
It's too bad that you didn't use Knuckles and discover his infinite jump. I can only imagine the reaction to the fact that this game has yet another neverending loop of misery.
Bro I love your videos, I have been watching them nonstop for the past few days and they are so funny. But then when I'm drinking they are that funny I can't help but cry laughing over them. your videos are some of the best I have seen this year, keep up the great work.
First time I’ve ever seen his face and not the persona character. I’m here for the content not the looks however so even if Batman shows his identity I’m not disappointed
At the "The miners dug it up a long time ago" part I thought you paused and it took me a minute to realize why you were confused. Really goes to show how incomprehensible it was to just stop that sentence there.
We never saw your face until today so that's a surprise. Even before your 1 million sub video. Anyways, thanks for playing this game so we don't have to.
The real problem with this game was that it was originally intended to be a PC game, had to be very quickly ported to the Wii U due to some stupid deal Sega made, then heavily rushed out the door, kinda like Fallout New Vegas on the PS3.
I've seen people play this but I didn't know about the constant talking. Maybe its the way you edited it but the ENDLESS banter between them is somehow anxiety inducing omg sorry you had to go through a game of that but we appreciate it
Hey Kev if you ever want an Underated show to watch check out Transformers Cybertron… not only are the human characters actually likable and actively help the Autobots but all of the Autobots and Decpecticons have unique personalities and accents… we even have an Australian Autobot… also Soundwave’s personality is based off of his original concepts which was that of Starscreams… also Soundwave is a DJ and Literally says “He’s trippin because he got Served”
Watching you Kev is a highlight of my day. I’ve been very sick lately but when I watch you I distract myself from thinking how sick I am to watch such a funny creator. Thanks for making me smile Kev
Thank you for going trough this hell for us. I don't know how you were able to play the game so long. I'd have uninstalled it after 15 minutes of constant talking. That's just torture.
I love the fact that Kevin isn't like these other trash youtubers that get sponsored by TERRIBLE games and the fact he tells his honest opinion, I genuinely appreciate this ALOT.
You know its funny cause he didnt even discover the glitch with knuckles that trivializes the game because did you know knuckles can fly with how bad the games made. Also hope your sanity comes back eventually you sounded so done at the end there.
Honestly i wanted to scream shut the f up on Sonic team the whole time and i only watched this video. I don't understand how Kev even made it that far.
Well, I guess you aren't Cloud805. For the longest time I thought this was his ghost channel because your voices sound IDENTICAL, but the facecam crushed my dream😞 oh, well. I still love your videos 👍
Sonic boom is the Definition of why Sega is or with how successful frontiers is was holding sonic back While I didn't like boom when it was first revealed the game released shows the incompetence that is Sega with sonic They screwed big red button over I'm so sorry you suffered through sonic boom though
I didn't think the dialogue was that bad. The trick is to see it as a jumping point for your great commentary and suddenly you're glad the lines are terrible and make no sense
Ironic how the tv spinoff is actually more popular than the game it's based off of.
I watched both seasons and it is pretty funny. Seriously it made me laugh and I loved it.
oh, i thought the tv series came first
I've never played a sonic game BUT I watched the tv series
Because the show is really funny.
It took me 5 years to find out there was a game

Despite it's shortcomings? You mean... being absolute garbage. lol There are zero redeeming qualities to Sonic Boom.
@GundamGokuTV The only redeeming quality this "game" has is Kevduit playing it. And game grumps made a mockery of this "game"
They do have a word for that you know. It's called masochism

“Look, ramps”

No no, listen, the trap trapped them, okay?

The sonic films basically saved the series and have reinvigorated interest in it

I love how he is slowly losing his mind playing this game I've never laughed so hard 🤣
Bless the guy on stream who made this possible in the first place. I salute you ho whose name I forgot o7
both a blessing and a curse
the sheer pain of hearing the voice lines over and over without making sense is hard... i didn't watch the stream but i can feel the pain
The pausing sound is engrained in my soul because the many pause jumps of knuckles is best part of the game.
At least Sonic 06 doesn't have pre-recorded voicelines every 6 seconds.
it's no use! it's no use! it's no use! it's no use!
I don't think I've seen Kev lose patience with one of these "Forced myself to play: etc" and primarily because of the dialogue.
I was feeling all the pain with you with every second of this video.
I want to thank you, for enduring the insanely painful game that is Sonic Boom. Holy shit I'm half way through, and the repeated dialog is already driving me insane, and I'm sure you cut the majority of them out lmao
"Up is my favorite direction!"
- Amy, at least a billion times in Sonic Boom
20:10 - the point where they went beyond "not syncing voicelines with each other" to "not syncing voicelines with the subtitles".

'90s Sonic is still the best Sonic, IMO!
Still wonder how we went from knuckles punching sonic out of super mode to him not being able to tell right from left.
RIGHT? Pisses me off! He's gullible AF, but not DUMB! There's a difference! X'D
I have never seen Kev's face and I was not ready for him to be so cute...
Sonic: Got any advice, Tails?
Tails: Yeah! Avoid getting hit by their swords!
Dang. Why didn't I think of that?
Love seeing Kev's face ngl, such a chill dude
Sonic Boom: constant talking
Sonic Frontiers: talks only during cutscenes or when it's ABSOLUTELY necessary
Yeah, I can't wait for Tuesday...
Yep
The fact that the characters don't ever shut up is the worst part to me
Games like this make me appreciate silent protags like Link WAY more! lolol.
I cant believe you done this
I had to

Don't let kev know about Sonic '06
The pain will exceed into astronomical levels

haha, thank you Chaos, appreciate that!
@@Kevduit no thank you for all the laughs you give me
there is "4th wall breaking" and there is "complete mental breaking"
this game ... "everything is breaking"
When Tails said that they can use ramps as ramps it cracked me up :D
First time I’ve ever seen his face and not the persona character. I’m here for the content not the looks however so even if Batman shows his identity I’m not disappointed
I wish there were recordings of the drawing board and discussions for this game. Who were they going for target audience?
Weird how the show was to help sell the game yet it ended up surpassing the game in popularity entirely.
Matt McMuscles did a great "Wha Happun" video on the development of it. Basically Sega screwed the developers over constantly and without warning.
@@VeraTheTabbynx Ah, that makes sense.
At the "The miners dug it up a long time ago" part I thought you paused and it took me a minute to realize why you were confused. Really goes to show how incomprehensible it was to just stop that sentence there.

Anyways, thanks for playing this game so we don't have to.
The Freedom Planet games were not needed to make the Sonic the Hedgehog series look like a joke but they do not help, being superior as they are.
The real problem with this game was that it was originally intended to be a PC game, had to be very quickly ported to the Wii U due to some stupid deal Sega made, then heavily rushed out the door, kinda like Fallout New Vegas on the PS3.

Amy: I know your weak spot
Kev: what- AHHHHHH
Famous last words
I've seen people play this but I didn't know about the constant talking. Maybe its the way you edited it but the ENDLESS banter between them is somehow anxiety inducing omg sorry you had to go through a game of that but we appreciate it
Webcam Kevin would lead to some abilities many would consider.... Unnatural
Ah yes, my favorite game
Kevduit you are a serious trooper for playing this..😓 I salute you my man💯 🫡
Knuckles looks more like a fan's weirdly buff OC, rather than the actual character.
If you haven't watched the Sonic Boom TV show you really should, it's great and a really good watch! Hulu has it last time I checked.
There is an official RUclips channel with complete episodes.
If they removed the voice lines I swear the games rating would go up by 30%
Remember kids if you see a Kevin in your disc, your all clear, if you don't see him and you hear breathing. F*CKING RUN
God I knew it was bad, but whoever made this should be locked in a windowless room and forced to listen to these voiceless on repeat for eternity.
The story behind the development for this game makes me sad
They think you're an idiot because you bought the game and they're not afraid to tell you
Kev, sorry you had to endure this sheer agony. That said, this video is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen.
it had to be done
I’m gonna replay Transformers: FOC to rinse my brain with absolute bliss
I find it hilarious kev whent through all that crap but the thing that finally ended it was
“HEY there are things inside these things”
Hey Kev if you ever want an Underated show to watch check out Transformers Cybertron… not only are the human characters actually likable and actively help the Autobots but all of the Autobots and Decpecticons have unique personalities and accents… we even have an Australian Autobot… also Soundwave’s personality is based off of his original concepts which was that of Starscreams… also Soundwave is a DJ and Literally says “He’s trippin because he got Served”
Sonic + Bullet Hell = the excellent Velocity 2X.
I stumbled across this guy on my recommended the other day and safe to say I am now addicted, this guy is so jokes
welcome here!
dude, this guy is zanny's twin. same memey thumbnails. jokey nature. easy to amuse.
i want them to collab.
@@nota444tm2they did, one time on for honor and the other on destiny 2 idk if they did other colab tho.
Watching you Kev is a highlight of my day. I’ve been very sick lately but when I watch you I distract myself from thinking how sick I am to watch such a funny creator. Thanks for making me smile Kev
Hope you get better soon, king!
I’m feeling a lot better. Just glad that you make me smile.
Thank you for going trough this hell for us. I don't know how you were able to play the game so long. I'd have uninstalled it after 15 minutes of constant talking. That's just torture.
I'm usually patient when it comes to dialogue in puzzles because sometimes they're helpful...BUT IF THE HELP TIPS POP UP EVERY 0.1 SECONDS, I SWEAR-
Never seen kevs face prior to this video so this was the most outta nowhere face reveal for me lmao
Actually, I get the feeling Knuckles could solo everything in this game; probably not on glitchless% though.
sonic and the dark knight. best sonic ever
Sonic boom rise of lyric- I get $60 you get extreme pain and suffering
I love the fact that Kevin isn't like these other trash youtubers that get sponsored by TERRIBLE games and the fact he tells his honest opinion, I genuinely appreciate this ALOT.
This game felt like SEGA ran out of ideas and made whatever they could think of at the time.
i hate the fact that one of my favourite childhood games was actually pretty crappy all along
I’ve gotta give it to RUclips’s algorithm, I’ve never watched anything sonic related until this video and got 2 sonic frontier ads throughout this 😂😂
I know that people say that it was a bad game, but when i played it as a kid i actually like this a lot.
Im just surprised that "NO ONE" made a mod for this game to make it better xD
Sonic Adventure DX, damn I feel old...
You know its funny cause he didnt even discover the glitch with knuckles that trivializes the game because did you know knuckles can fly with how bad the games made.
Also hope your sanity comes back eventually you sounded so done at the end there.
I attempted the glitch, but it seemed like they might've fixed it
bro why does the old man give me arkham knight scarecrow vibes 💀

To answer you Kev: I believe that was Natsuki cracking her neck again.
8:35 "It's all about the hips, he's just using his hips." Yeah I think that's how a lot of the Sonic fanfictions go as well.
Honestly i wanted to scream shut the f up on Sonic team the whole time and i only watched this video. I don't understand how Kev even made it that far.
Bayonetta 2 was also made for Wii U and it looked amazing. This game has sub-Gamecube quality in the cutscenes.
I was there live, seeing him suffer on stream. You should check out Kevduit at Twitch! Link is in the description.
Fun fact they repeat the same line over and over again if you idle for a good while lol
Well, I guess you aren't Cloud805. For the longest time I thought this was his ghost channel because your voices sound IDENTICAL, but the facecam crushed my dream😞 oh, well. I still love your videos 👍

It's all fun and games until Sonic finds the Ring of Power...
The sonic boom tv show was amazing
Poor Knuckles really got the short end of the stick in this one. I always thought Sonic was supposed to be the dumb one of the group.
Nope
Shadow: "You have the reflexes of a panther."
Sonic: "Is that an insult? I thought panthers were fast."
Shadow: "Maybe compared to you."
15:17 We can use these ramps as ramps. Ah yes, the floor is made out of floor.
He doesn’t know. He doesn’t know knuckles can fly via glitch.
When I saw him and his thumbnail I could only think “oh you poor man”.
Huh, I remember this game being pretty good when I was a kid, maybe I should replay it...
Finally some real content!!!
If you ever wondered what it's like to have more than one child then play this game.
This game gave me flappy bird level rage....I KNOW ITS A BOOST PAD!!!!
