      @SquareEyedJak  6 лет назад +40

      Don't fret, was just an experiment. Figured Call of Duty with all the gunfire and explosions, it'd be a good excuse to use those to help cover up the fucks in this episode, which there are only 5 anyway.
      Just looking to see how it effects this videos performance.

      @adamlach6572 2 года назад

      i went back to ps2 era of cod and moh games - good how diverse they were, how less scripted while still really well made. I can't stand sitting through a single on rails modern cod campaign, even though these are short, yet i can play old cod games for hours on end, even re-doing some missions for the sake of it, without any boredom. I forgot how much better these games were. Finest Hours is almost tactical, very diverse, and it mashes together large epic missions with actuall objectives that won't do themselfs. CoD 2 Big Red One is a perfect bridge between old and new shooters, with great scripting, and amazing gunplay. CoD 3 has the intensity of modern CoD games, but unlike them, you really have to conquer every inch of a map - no bs retreating because you crossed scripted line. I won't even start on Medal of Honor games becasue i won't stop typing.

    I don't know where or when I got it but I had found this game in a CD wallet and played after watching it, it's very dated and rough around the edges but it still holds up (or not) for many of the reasons covered here. Probably not as good as COD 1 on PC, but it was great for the time.

    One thing CoD Finest Hour did that a lot of PS2 games didn't was attention to detail. Like the magazine on the DP28 actually rotates (for perspective, the one in World at War, which came out in 2009, didn't rotate), and the bolt of the Mosin Nagant bolt actually moves while firing (again, something even World at War, a game I also praise for attention to detail, doesn't do lol)

  • @cadjebushey6524
    @cadjebushey6524 10 месяцев назад

    Here are my tips:
    1. Play on easy mode.
    I figured out the reason it was so hard on the American campaign was because it was on medium.
    I DO NOT wanna know what its like on hard.
    2. Seach around for ammo and medkits. Every last corner. Memorize where they are too.
    3. Light machine-guns like the DP-28, Bren, BAR 1918, MG-42 and Browning M1919 work best fired from a prone position. Firing while standing up is only recommended in close-quarters because of the recoil.
    4. For some reason, the aforementioned Browning has this weird thing where the bullets travel above the crosshair. I figured this out after noticing riunds hit a wall a few feet away. So knowing this, you generally wanna keep whatever you wanna shoot at or above the top notch of the crosshair rather thsn in the crosshair.
    5. Dont pop out of the turret hatch in tanks or go into third-person view. Your exposing yourself to enemy fire and wasting ammo for later on-foot encounters and the camera wont follow your tanks turret if you rotate it. Also, the crosshair in third person is uselessly inaccurate.

  • @JayEmPlays
    @JayEmPlays 6 лет назад +1

    New intro is pretty nice! Sticking with the old but reliable style, but still telling us that you can stick with the times.
    There were good amount of good editing for both game and live footage, and the "censoring" with explosions and such actually got some laughs out of me. Maybe being more consistent with it would have worked nicely, as people can also flip out from something as regular as "shit". Maybe only blocking the most vulgar ones, which could actually work towards writing for more freedom with the choice of words to express yourself.
    I barely was interested in the game, but the review in general was great and gave a good glimpse of game in question. Goes to show that it's not the game, it's the guy talking about it that counts (or at least, it should).
    Great kickoff for Season 5! Hopefully we are in the right to expect that the quality of the reviews in the future will satisfy both you and us, the viewers.
    Cheers!

      Just what I like to hear, thanks. Way too many channels have the topic or game as the main focus, but that's just not interesting to watch imo so, I always try injecting as much personality and personal opinion into everything.
      And as for the censorship, it was just for this video as an experiment with the explosions to help blend it into the episode more. I'm interested to see how it will effect this videos performance. :)

    Fun review.
    I remember getting this along with Timesplitters Future Perfect in early 2005. I just remember not liking the aiming sensitivity of this game and only playing it for about 30 minutes, so I returned it the next day since I was only playing Timesplitters. Thought of giving it another chance after price drop and I wasn't playing nothing else, but by that time it already had a sequel, Big Red One, I got instead during the period I was waiting for 360's to be findable in stores.

    The reason in the first mission you are given just bullets is because the Soviet Union had more men than rifles so soviet soldiers worked in groups of two, one carries the rifle the other carries the ammo. When the man with the rifle died the other man picked up the rifle and continued the fight

    I recently played through this on my modded xbox, not sure if it's the Xbox version or the fact I'm running it off the hard drive but the I almost got soft-locked on the end of the final mission with one of the planes at the end getting stuck midair out on the horizon, good thing I still had a sniper rifle (not to mention a couple odd times that I could hold 500 bullets or 50 rockets) lol.

    Really liked the revamped square eyed jak intro. I still prefer the chase scene from crash 2 always found that funny when you were looking back, like always a fantastic review. I’m really looking forward to the Black Ops 1 review, that and World at war are my all time favourites in the franchise.

    Awesome video Square Eye. So what are you thoughts on Call of Duty WWII (the 2017 COD game)?

    Ah. What a peculiar entry this game is for the franchise. For dipping their toe into the water, it isn't a horrible first time console iteration. Albeit somewhat rough around the edges.
    I must have had a lot of time as a child, because I don't recall the difficulties of navigating this game when it was first bought for me. I suppose it came somewhat natural, though having an ample amount of time to get familiar with this game probably helped. I do recall the final level for the British to be particularly harrowing, along with the escort mission for the American tanks. Now that level certainly puts your skills to the test, making sure not only you keep yourself alive, but that you also keep the enemy anti tank teams from destroying your armor. Fun times.
    One thing I distinctly remember was how *dark* it it could get sometimes. I suppose it did add to the difficulty aspect of the game, but damn if it didn't irritate me quite a bit. I even turned up the brightness setting on my TV just to get a better picture.
    I do remember liking the extra features tacked on, such as the behind the scenes, proto animation reels, and so on. Gave me a little insight into gaming development before I ever had access to the Internet. It was such a cool thing at the time. Same applies to my Xbox version of Call of Duty: Big Red 1 with their little tidbits of history and behind the scenes for their multiplayer maps that simply isn't seen in games anymore. Though that being said, I suppose you could say that this has been more than made up in with how social media facilitates access to such knowledge without needing to put it in the game anymore. Still, it was a nice touch that gave such games a little personality to it which showed that the game devs actually gave a bit of a damn about what they were making.Those were indeed different times to say the least.
    The game certainly had its fair share of flaws. But taken for what it is, the game isn't all that bad. Just a little janky.

    Great video Jak!
    Even though I've never played this game I have a lot of nostalgia for it because it highly resembles COD 1 on pc which I absolutely loved!
    Like the opening mission where you hold rounds of ammo also exists in cod1 later in the game. Same as the tank levels etc.
    Main differences are level structure and designs.
    Also, I replicated my own version of N.sanity beach for my 3D college assignment
