Glad to see Policenauts mentioned in this episode. Truly a great game and the successor to my favorite game of all time, Snatcher. Damn shame it was never officially released over here but thank goodness for the English patch.
Mr. Kojima has been pretty honest about the films that inspire him. Snake from Metal Gear is inspired by the hero with the same name from "Escape from New York." Oh and Snatcher has a lot in common with Terminator. If you love Policenauts try Snatcher. It's another great gem.
I've played the demo for Metal Wolf Chaos; it was hidden on one of the OXM demo discs back in the day. REALLY wish it had seen a US release; that demo was a blast to play.
Theodore Relic Fuck I miss stuff like that... I used to really enjoy trying to figure out the button combination to unlock the hidden games on OXM disks.
I have never heard of Metal Wolf Chaos until today. Holy shit, that is one of the most badass things I've ever seen. It was so epic, it literally brought tears to my eye. And also made me laugh. Thank you, Japan.
Over the longterm, I keep coming back to you guys and probably enjoying you the best out of all the major game review shows on RUclips and there are a lot of them, so feel complimented!
MoonSpirit Because of by the time it came out it was already pretty late into the original Xbox, and localizing it with the 360 looming with a small budget for marketing probably for a niche tittle was probably it, or at least that's my assumption.
Seriously...From Software would never release this game in the US, if certain people caught wind of a JPN game making "fun" of the American government heads would have rolled. W was still president, no way this game was coming out over here. Even now From won't entertain a US release, Digital Devolver asked and they ignored the request. Google - Digital Devolver metal wolf chaos If you want to read more.
Part of it was also due to Metal Wolf Chaos being a parody for George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, so it was created over a decade ago. From Software didn't know if we'd "get the joke" or find it insulting, so they held it back.
Hi guys!, I love your channel and it is one of my favorites on RUclips, I wish you the best to its channel, greetings from the distant country of Chile!
Am I the only one that always Adds GameSacks videos to the top of theier Watch Later playlist on youtube even if there is another 75-100 videos in front of it u havent watched XD haha
Another dam awesome episode. Thankyou guys. Your shows have such a 90s nostalgia feeling to it. Reminds me of all those 16bit video game magazines like cvg and sega power etc
Ah man all these cool titles you guys keep introducing us to are soo cool =D I'm really curious of Policenauts and the Starfy games ^^ Keep up the good work guys.
The patched version of Policenauts is so cool I was able to pickup a limited edition repro with the patch at the last PRGE. Super high quality job on it, full color super glossy cover and the discs look very similar to working designs, iridescent and shiny.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you've ever covered Bahamut's Lagoon for the SNES. It's a tactical RPG made by squaresoft. You can download a patched rom so your not totally stuck as it's pretty unplayable in Japanese.
The Lethal Weapon thing just blew my damn mind. I'd heard of but never seen Policenauts before and in seeing it my mind just said "Oh. Anime designs." You literally had to show Lethal Weapon there and now I can't unsee it. They're the spitting image! It's nuts! :D
Bottle of scotch? CHECK 3 day weekend? CHECK Pneumatically actuated robot vacuum vagina? CHECK New episode of Game Sack? CHECK I'M READY TO F***ING ROCK 'N ROLL THIS SATURDAY NIGHT!
I totally missed Policenauts English patch! For a long time I checked periodically, but finally I lost patience. Thank you so much Joe, for reminding me =)
Uppers for PlayStation Vita. It came out last year in Japan 🇯🇵 but has yet to get a western release. It seems like a decent brawler with lots of style.
PSA(that lots of commenters probably already pointed out) Chalvo 55 is a semi-sequel to the unreleased Virtual Boy game Bound High where you controlled the ball form of Chalvo bouncing on enemies from a top-down perspective, made awesome by the Virtual Boy's 3D capabilities. A rom as well as reproduction cartridges are available, try it if you have a Virtual Boy!
Fun fact: Super Mad Champ was originally going to be made as a Kunio-kun racing game based on the motorcycle gameplay segment on Japan-only Shin Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-tachi no Banka.
It's cool that you guys go all the way to Japan every time you make one of these videos.
Ohh yes, I've been waiting for Policenauts to get mentioned on this show. I love that game, it's one of my favorites ever made.
Just like Barney Rubble stealing Fred's Pebbles in the old comercials Dave yet again is swindling Joe's Snatcher. What a rascal!
Phunqsauce But Joe is left with GreenDog, and that is a blessing.
g1nobleteam you mean GRRREEENNN DAAAWWGGG
I was hoping to hear him say that.
Too bad, because I was gonna rate this episode a 10.1
Now, it just gets a lousy 10.
Policenauts is awesome. I played on PS1 but awkward shooting with D-Pad.
I forgot my son in Japan one time. Does that count?
this channel needs way more love.....way more.
I try to spread the *Gospel of The Sack* wherever I go.
Whenever someone brings up gaming channels on IGN I always mention Game Sack.
Are you a bad enough dude to BE the President?
Lar's Gaming Channel "I'M BAT!"
When you beat the game, you get to lounge around the White House in a bathrobe and watch Fox News while drunkenly embarrassing yourself on Twitter.
lol. There is no cheese like the Japanese cheese! Oh, wait...
"I'm getting too old for this shit." Had no idea Policenauts was a follow-up to Snatcher. Game Sack dropping some knowledge.
Glad to see Policenauts mentioned in this episode. Truly a great game and the successor to my favorite game of all time, Snatcher. Damn shame it was never officially released over here but thank goodness for the English patch.
thanks joe and dave for all the hard work
Anyone else find it hilarious that in Metal Wolf Chaos, the President of the USA is voiced by a dude with a light Canadian accent?
"I'll smash it faster than a florida recount." Holy crap Japan! You never cease to amaze and entertain me.
SO happy I now have metal wolf in english! Thank you super best friends and devolver!
Mr. Kojima has been pretty honest about the films that inspire him. Snake from Metal Gear is inspired by the hero with the same name from "Escape from New York." Oh and Snatcher has a lot in common with Terminator. If you love Policenauts try Snatcher. It's another great gem.
Policenauts! Kojima should be making more games in this style.
There need to be more games in this style period. Any similar ones on PS3, PS4, or Xbox one?
also Doflamingo/Otacon is Jonathan Igram
yeah same voice actor (Hideyuki Tanaka)
no cause konami is disgrce to video game industry
Who said anything about Konami?
I liked the part where he said Hideo Kojima. But seriously, Policenauts looks awesome.
Yet ANOTHER awesome episode. Great work Game Sack! The work put into these videos shows and is always a joy to watch. Keep up the great work.
you guys are my favorite show on the internet. bar none.
Another Gem of an Episode! Thanks guys!
What I love most about this show is that it is a fantastic resource for game collectors.
The Saturn port of Policenauts is awesome and emulates very well on modern computers
Back in the day I ran an online petition on Usenet to get Konami to release Policenauts on the US Saturn. I think we ended with 300k names.
Love these sub-series! You can easily go as far as Left in Japan 99!
I legit thought I was going to bed early tonight....thanks Gamesack
Two things we learned from this episode.
1, Blast Processing is real
2, Dave loves taking Joe's games.
I've played the demo for Metal Wolf Chaos; it was hidden on one of the OXM demo discs back in the day. REALLY wish it had seen a US release; that demo was a blast to play.
Theodore Relic Fuck I miss stuff like that... I used to really enjoy trying to figure out the button combination to unlock the hidden games on OXM disks.
Can not wait for what is especially Metal Wolf...REMASTERED!
I love game sack. Cheers from Spain
You guys do amazing work...thank you.
"By the end of the first quarter of the 21st century, freedom was dead in America".
Sounds legit.
I have never heard of Metal Wolf Chaos until today. Holy shit, that is one of the most badass things I've ever seen. It was so epic, it literally brought tears to my eye. And also made me laugh. Thank you, Japan.
Over the longterm, I keep coming back to you guys and probably enjoying you the best out of all the major game review shows on RUclips and there are a lot of them, so feel complimented!
We do, thank you!
Update here, Joe!
FromSoftware had announced that there were a HD remaster version of MWC for PS4, Xbox One and PC.
It's called Metal Wolf Chaos XD.
Wasn't this already released two years ago?
Liked before even watching
Bobby Cornwell what I love about Game Sack is that you *can* like before watching.
Every. Single. Time.
George R Majchrzak Agreed
Same here :)
Bobby Cornwell same here.
Ditto
Happiest Sunday is when Game Sack new video notification and Vapor Trail music rocking!
Policenauts on the Saturn is great. i'm playing it with the translation patch, which is perfect.
Thumbs up for using a brief section of that cover of the Vapor Trail bgm in an transition. Vapor Trail should never go unappreciated.
Why didn't we get Metal Wolf Chaos? This could have been the game we needed. Make America get this game!
MoonSpirit Because of by the time it came out it was already pretty late into the original Xbox, and localizing it with the 360 looming with a small budget for marketing probably for a niche tittle was probably it, or at least that's my assumption.
Seriously...From Software would never release this game in the US, if certain people caught wind of a JPN game making "fun" of the American government heads would have rolled.

If you want to read more.
gamesmaster5555 I would say watch the episode of Punching Weight on Metal Wolf Chaos as well.
Part of it was also due to Metal Wolf Chaos being a parody for George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, so it was created over a decade ago. From Software didn't know if we'd "get the joke" or find it insulting, so they held it back.
Thanks, I did, been watching Derek since he was a little "happier" aka HVGN.
Only channel I put a like on before I even watch the videos. Glad to see another video posted. Keep up the awesome work guys.
I believe that Metal Wolf Chaos is how Donald Trump expects his term to be.
Thanks GameSack for your awesome videos!
Metal Wolf looks so rad..
For Joe it was the day that Dave graced his game room with his presence, for Dave it was a Saturday.
It literally was a Saturday.
Another great episode. Good job, guys.
AT LAST MY DOSE !
BenzaieLive u a franch boi
BenzaieLive Aaaaaah yeeeeeeeah
Ah Benzaie qui suit Game Sack ça fait plaisir ! Faut dire que cette émission est carrément addictive haha
Weird to see a Benzaie comment on a Gamesack episode ! :)
YESS !! NEW GAME SACK!!! I LIVE FOR THIS!!! - rips off clothes and makes guttural noises while staring at computer -
For including policenauts, I included my like.
'And that's okay with me'
Can you remember when you used to call it moon language? That was so funny.
Hi guys!, I love your channel and it is one of my favorites on RUclips, I wish you the best to its channel, greetings from the distant country of Chile!
They need to release Snatcher and Policenauts in HD.
I love this show. We always watch it on the 4k TV when a new one pops up.
Policenauts is a game that would fit perfectly on the 3ds!
that's right Dave, sometimes you just gotta take that Snatcher.
Game Sack is the BEST game review show on youtube.
Yesss, I've always wanted to play policenauts, and I hadn't heard of any of the others. You guys are still finding gold!
The music in this Star Cruiser is beyond amazing!! You really know teh good stuff!!!
I miss the days of weekly vids, but alas. Love Game Sack no matter what
Am I the only one that always Adds GameSacks videos to the top of theier Watch Later playlist on youtube even if there is another 75-100 videos in front of it u havent watched XD haha
BTW great video :)
Another dam awesome episode. Thankyou guys. Your shows have such a 90s nostalgia feeling to it. Reminds me of all those 16bit video game magazines like cvg and sega power etc
Still nice to see games I never have heard of before, like super mad champ!
Metal Wolf actually recently got a re-release on Steam as Metal Wolf Chaos XD.
Wow that Florida Recount line made me LOL
The florida recount joke is absolute kino
Great job guys as usual.
imagine if a 90s tv show in the youtube...
its game shack
That road rash clone could be good if it had a bit of blast processing!
The episodes where you both wear a Sega shirt are always good !!!
thanks a lot for sharing this with us
Another great episode guys!
You both kickAss..Thankyou Game Sack for your contributions on youtube
Ah man all these cool titles you guys keep introducing us to are soo cool =D I'm really curious of Policenauts and the Starfy games ^^ Keep up the good work guys.
The patched version of Policenauts is so cool I was able to pickup a limited edition repro with the patch at the last PRGE. Super high quality job on it, full color super glossy cover and the discs look very similar to working designs, iridescent and shiny.
Metal Wolf Chaos is gonna make America great again
Absolutely lost it at the insane boob jiggle around 5:10 LMAO
Starfy was a cute game for the Nintendo DS.
Someone needs to weaponize Gamesack sarcasm. With a little refinement, it could be used to depopulate entire cities.
There was in fact a 4th Japanese only Stafy game released for the DS in 2006.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you've ever covered Bahamut's Lagoon for the SNES. It's a tactical RPG made by squaresoft. You can download a patched rom so your not totally stuck as it's pretty unplayable in Japanese.
The Lethal Weapon thing just blew my damn mind. I'd heard of but never seen Policenauts before and in seeing it my mind just said "Oh. Anime designs."

Hope it's Balvenie
Robot what... bwa ha ha ha ha!!

I totally missed Policenauts English patch! For a long time I checked periodically, but finally I lost patience. Thank you so much Joe, for reminding me =)
Uppers for PlayStation Vita. It came out last year in Japan 🇯🇵 but has yet to get a western release. It seems like a decent brawler with lots of style.
These and left in arcade are my favorite, especially when there's a Saturn game involved. Awesome job. 🏆
MY favorite youtube gaming channel ever keep going
Haha while waiting through an ad for this video I was thinking "I wonder if they'll ever do Policenauts". Yay
"No matter what you do, the news spins it so that YOU look like the bad guy." Hmmm... Sorry, I couldn't resist.
I love you, Game Sack! Lol.
PSA(that lots of commenters probably already pointed out) Chalvo 55 is a semi-sequel to the unreleased Virtual Boy game Bound High where you controlled the ball form of Chalvo bouncing on enemies from a top-down perspective, made awesome by the Virtual Boy's 3D capabilities.

God bless jiggle physics! The president would be proud.
great show, as always.
another gamesack vid another one out of the park. great job!
Love Policenauts for the story. And the opening theme you can hear in the first MGS too. :)
Fun fact: Super Mad Champ was originally going to be made as a Kunio-kun racing game based on the motorcycle gameplay segment on Japan-only Shin Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-tachi no Banka.
nice, finally someone puts Kojima in his place
LOVE Policenauts! Wish there were more games like this (hand drawn/point n click)...for those of us that don't do 1st person 3d well...😥
just bought Policenauts.. thanks gamesack. maybe one day ill eventually figure out how to download the english patch
awesome episode! never knew policenauts and metal gear solid have that same "du, du, du, du du du" intro!
Ah, Densetsu no Starfy
Great episode!
