This really makes you Feel Like Summertime High School. A Young Man’s Notes - How a New Exchange Student Like Myself Ran Into His Childhood Friend On The School Tour, Then For Some Reason Became Super-Popular With The Girls For His Daily Scoops On The School Photography Club Even Though He Only Takes Panty Shots, And What He Thinks As He Goes On Dates During His Summer Of Island School Life
Ridge Racer has my favorite fictional car designs, next to burnout. Usually, a car game with no licensed cars goes the obvious frankenstein approach, with designs just mashing 2 or more cars together, rather than using them as inspirations. RR cars are also well proportioned, not looking like mid 2000 Hot Wheels. Having actual designers on board also helps. Your comment on RR7's cars feeling otherworldly is on point, and why I like those designs. A glimpse of the future.
Thor you L.L.L.L Legend tamsoft sponsor this man, he never fails to impress on the detail for these games a man who was born in the jank moduled by the jank
SG/ZH: Schol Girl/Zombie Hunter is currently in a humble bundle and this is the second video in 2 days that i've seen a mention of "Summertime High School. A Young Man’s Notes - How a New Exchange Student Like Myself Ran Into His Childhood Friend On The School Tour, Then For Some Reason Became Super-Popular With The Girls For His Daily Scoops On The School Photography Club Even Though He Only Takes Panty Shots, And What He Thinks As He Goes On Dates During His Summer Of Island School Life" in a YT video. What a time to be alive. I guess.
Always a treat to see a new video and was happy to see it touching on Kiryu's story in IW. I had only gotten into the series very briefly when Zero came out, was at the beginning of a doomed relationship and gaming became less a focus of my free time. After that very very rough period after I used the games as a sort of an inspiration to rebuild my life better, with tons of great success. Ended up really loving the new direction with Like a Dragon only for Gaiden to hit me with major feels that got completely eclipsed with Kiryu's cancer diagnosis. Before was easy for me to approach the games a sort of virtual vacation with friends but having lost my mother to cancer about a little over a year before IW came out it absolutely destroyed me. Still nowhere near processing all those emotions (from the real life loss, not the gaming one) but I think seeing that dose of reality thrown into my escape fantasy has helped on some level. Also really looking forward to the next topic as I pretty much ran into the same kind of issue with the same titles. I think it took me a bit over a real life month to beat IW with it being the only title I played the entire time. Did maybe a third of the content? Meanwhile titles I ordered months ago started showing up and suddenly I've got at least 3 games that are going to be 60 plus hours to finish all sitting on my desk.
As a Yakuza fan, finding you from Mysterious PS3 Games and at this point seeing every damn video of yours cause of your chill voice, deep narration, picking open the game and concluding it is so damn good. So, yes, yes I did see your Yakuza 0 to 6 on how to end a series video as going back to 0 was fresh and ending it on 6 on a light tone was flawed but good.
i dont know if you have been inn Japan before, but the moment i arrived to Tokyo i understood Japanese videogames design, art, and culture behind then, suddenly everything off about the places, the corridors, the roads, the colors, the items, the characters, come on even the paths you follow on a city , ALL HAVE SENSE FOR ME.
Couldn’t watch the whole thing because Yakuza spoilers, but amazing video as always :) the way you describe games is always such a vibe and hella inspiring, and your game is looking really sweet too! Can’t wait to explore in it
If you want an official one, but I'm pretty sure that clones and 3rd party ones are still plentiful. I have a cheap bluetooth controller I bought to use with my phone and while reading the manual I discovered it also worked with PC, Xbox, PS3, and Switch.
SG/ZH made a poor first impression on me, but I insist on 100%ing any game I start because I am an idiot, so I went back to it after a few years. Ended up rather enjoying it, despite the game's best efforts (mainly the maze stages). The opening song is truly awful, but the rest of the 10 or so music tracks in the entire game are pretty good, even if at least a few are reused from Oneechanbara. The mechanics felt more satisfying as I put more time into it, dodge rolling around and abusing i-frames on physical attacks. The character designs are pretty good too. I'd play a sequel, especially if they gave it the Oneechanbara Origin visual treatment.
The high school zombie game should have had something like Left 4 Dead's AI director. That would have made have it at least a little bit more replayable. And yeah it's pretty depressing to see Kiryu go through so much shit. Hopefully he gets a satisfactory ending in the later Yakuza games.
oh god, I felt the the PS3 hacking segment, I realized late that my BT module was damaged and turns out it kinda bricks your ps3 if you update it, fun times :)
I hope you succeed in installing ps3hen. I did it on my ps3 and I find it so convenient to rip whole discs onto usb drives an play them entirely from there.
From my understanding, the reason the PS3 still gets updates is because it's also a blu ray player and since blu ray encryption updates from time to time the PS3 needs to update too. I'm fairly certain that the source I read that on ages ago (when dealing with the frustrations of blu ray encryption) mentioned that they basically have a legal obligation to update it.
25:46 is that actually a thing cause i've played ridge racer 7 on a external hdd until it specifically stopped working before i could finish the GP so i gave up for months. Until i saw ridge racer 7 on the thumbnail, so i finally got motivated to copy it to the actual ps3 hdd and it worked! so i finally finished the final 14th RSGP and hadn't had any visible issue yet, but maybe it might just randomly die 1 day just like when it was on the external hdd or maybe i misunderstood what you said idk
For real, the Japanese created a concept that allows them to make INFINITE stories around a franchise without an arch, and is called GAIDEN, the gaiden concept is basically "just stories", or filler, your can work forever and in anyway you want with the GAIDEN concept, also you can set the gaiden or gaidens at any period of the arch, if the YAKUZA team wants, they can make "gaidens" of young Kiryu or adult or old Kiryu, the bad side of this is that it can get the public fed up or tired of the formula, so far they kinda made this with the feudal japan spin-off, but their strategy were the spin-offs, on PSP, now "like a dragon" series, the "judgement" series, the shooter on the ps3 and so on.,

I would love to believe that they got artists from the Ace Combat dev team to design the fictional cars but I haven't find any concrete answers.
Hell yeah, Cars like the Soldat Raggio, Rivelta Solare, Assoluto Fatalita, etc are some of the best car designs ever

ridge racer 7 mentioned woo hoo
I’m so glad Thor core is a genre of videos here. Always good vibes that improve the work day. Big up.

It's an Easter miracle! Legit made my day

Kiwi Maru isn't the right font (you can tell especially by looking at the lowercase "g"). The font they're using is called ニューシネマA (New Cinema A).
thanks
31:21 the dreaded poking out corner
Oh damn i just got SG/ZH from the humble bundle and now a thorhighheels video about it? damn what a good day to be
Thanks for the video, ur the best
Instant Like before even hitting Play! Keep'em coming, bro!
The Legend of Dragoon music was an unreal nostalgic blast from the past Thor. Thank you.
Shoutouts to all of us still using the PS3 in 2024 on the regular. Thank you, Thor, I salute you.
SGZH: SCHOOL GIRL ZOMBIE HUNTER SWEEP
Another incredible video, thank you for your hard work!
The bit with Pikachu riding shotgun in a police car anytime Underage Japanese Bullshit came up has the capacity to being a great running joke.
I started playing Yakuza thanks to your videos! I'm only up to 3 so far but I'm making steady progress over the months, lol.
I totally feel your struggle with doing a ps3 softmod, It took me like a month to get mine done.
you cant just send me with the loop when starting a journey like that dam good job
The chill hang out vibes of "So I've been playing" is only rivaled by the greatest of PSP games.
Gosh, that was a real nice Yakuza wrap up from you.
yo found out about you through something rotten - great stuff man, been binge watching hard xoxo
Hahahaha when you were on Something Rotten those fellas said "prescient" about 100 times each god damn.
another stylish, interesting, informative video from tor !
Continuing with the "whoa whoa whoa whoa" sounds from 17:20-18:20 had me crackle up, not gonna lie.
Oh whoa….oh whoa….oh whoawhoawhoawowo
i never thought to think about how funny concept cars are looking sometimes lmfffaao
Tamsoft's Strongest Soldier, we salute you🫡
me when I think the video is over but I see 23:29 - "hell yeah brother"
Man. Am I happy to see you have fun, and go on bike rides and play games for your own sake
But I missed these videos hella
When I get some good take out, I find a good Thor vid. This one hits full. ❤❤❤
GREAT video as always!
17:03 I'll be honest, the grunting in the background was so hard to listen to and went on way too long. I couldn't even hear what he was saying.
Honestly the worst thing about wanting to play a PS3 right now is finding a controller for it.
not in Venezuela, you can find controllers like that for 10 bucks in most tech stores, 20 for ps4 controllers
ps4 controller + chronus zen
If you want an official one, but I'm pretty sure that clones and 3rd party ones are still plentiful. I have a cheap bluetooth controller I bought to use with my phone and while reading the manual I discovered it also worked with PC, Xbox, PS3, and Switch.
Hey babeeeee new thorhighheels just dropped!
Fiets segment FTW 🔥🔥🔥
I'm surprised about the ps3 disc based games giving you issues thing. But in any case, ridge racer 7 had a download only version too!
1:49 Yeah, this genre I'd generally call a Thirst Person Shooter.
"So What I've Been Playing" intro makes me grin hard
>Ridge Racer 7 time
>Ridge Racer Type 4 OST
oh it's peak
Omg I FUCKIN LOVE THIS CHANNEL GADDDEM thank you for another banger
Pre = Before. Science = knowledge. Prescience = Foreknowledge. Aka, magic fortunetelling psychics
Always a holiday fo me when a new Thor vid drops.
Almost had a nostalgia seizure when the snes Paperboy 2 music snaked outta nowhere.
I liked the part where the Kitty gets up to the camera and Thor goes "I'm dead." **woooooosh**
I love that thumbnail.
SG/ZH made a poor first impression on me, but I insist on 100%ing any game I start because I am an idiot, so I went back to it after a few years. Ended up rather enjoying it, despite the game's best efforts (mainly the maze stages).

The character designs are pretty good too. I'd play a sequel, especially if they gave it the Oneechanbara Origin visual treatment.
0:57 bruh, this a game title or the name of an old school Fall Out Boy song?
I will eagerly await the game length video, Thor-sama
God damn those BIOS noises scared the shit out of me
29:38 That's right, the Mascara Snake, fast and bulbous!
*#FBI**! Hands up, kneel down and get your hard drive out!*
Ridge Racer the goat
We may never see another game again, and it may ultimately be for the best, so let's enjoy and celebrate what already there
Perfect vido to go to sleep to ❤️ warm blanket kinda feel every time
The high school zombie game should have had something like Left 4 Dead's AI director. That would have made have it at least a little bit more replayable.
And yeah it's pretty depressing to see Kiryu go through so much shit. Hopefully he gets a satisfactory ending in the later Yakuza games.
Damn, ya I've never a sniper rifle not be a one/two shot kill weapon in a game. That's their entire allure for players.
Thorhighheels dropping more peak content?
Sign me up 🤘
Time to watch Thor after drinking NyQuil fuck yeah
oh god, I felt the the PS3 hacking segment, I realized late that my BT module was damaged and turns out it kinda bricks your ps3 if you update it, fun times :)
26:10 "I basically own every PS3 game worth shit already"
proceeds to show the only PS3 game worth less than shit
Girl what? I didn’t see Siren Blood Curse anywhere😂😂😂
babe wake up!! new thorheels just droppé
I hope you succeed in installing ps3hen. I did it on my ps3 and I find it so convenient to rip whole discs onto usb drives an play them entirely from there.
I'd take zine vibes as a compliment.
i love the cat footage
this reminds me i need to remember to look up the font they used in dark cloud.
DF FUUN is the font they use for all the regular text im p sure. same one thats in harvest moon wonderful life.

ghost partitions 👻
How did you drop a video talking about summer time high school the same day as relax Alex
He talked about it in another video within the past year or two.
Jesus bless ya THH! Happy Easter!
What type of game are you making? I think the visuals are really cool and think itd be a fun Yume Nikki or LSD type game.
Hey the PS3's update isn't for security reasons, its a license update for the Bluray movies
Thor needs a neocities site

or maybe rr7 on external hdd not working one day for some reason is that lol
wow, this zombie slash high school game makes OneChanbara look like Bayonetta.
Dang it, SGZH IS related to OneChanbara!
