That Metal Jesus reference though... lmao
It's like the third time they've done it though, lol
NERIFES88 So what? It's funny.
I wonder if he knows how much they pick on him though; rofl
Mark Tubes, They aren't really picking on him, it's a joke.
Yes it was... that's why I said "lmao"?
"Soul Feces"
AVGN: Oh yeah, it's all coming along...
I bought a game recently because it had a dumb name, and I'm glad I did, as it turned out to be a pretty cool game. It's a badass robot-on-robot arena fighter for the MSX2... called "Girly Block." I have no idea WHY it's called Girly Block, but it totally is, and it likes to remind you of that fact constantly since the game's title is a permanent fixture on the HUD, in big, fancy, angular letters.
The game also wins bonus points for its Game Over screen, which reads as follows (word for word, in English): "NO! NO! OH! MY GOD! YOUR MISSION ENDED IN FAILED. WHAT A MISERABLE CHAP!"
Game of the Year, all years.
Another excellent episode from RUclips's most consistent gaming channel.
"Hidden Gems" I just chocked on my lunch laughing hahaha
3 years later and he just got me too. lol
Choked*
Chocked?
the hidden gem part hahahahaha. well done guys
There's an arcade game I discovered on MAME. It's a shooter that is really fun to play and it's actually much easier than most shmups because it doesn't bombard you with a million bullets on screen. It has good graphics and a pretty nice intro but the music is the best part. Really awesome music. What is this amazing game?
Hot Dog Storm. Why? Because the emblem of the pilots is literally a hot dog in space. A hot dog IN SPACE!!!
Good game I have it on Coin-ops ignite
How about "Irritating Stick"? To be fair, that _IS_ an accurate translation of the game's Japanese title, Ira Ira Bo.
Then there's puzzle-themed Bubble Bobble spinoff, "Bust A Move"! Really? That sounds like a dance game! Why didn't they call it "Puzzle Bobble"? ...Oh wait. They did in every place _BUT_ the US!
Bust a Move is a perfectly fine name
You guys totally missed Revengers of Vengeance on SEGA CD! The ultimate dumb name game. It literally means "Revenge of Revenge"!
Revenge of Revenge sounds like it could be the tag line for that Kill Bill 3 people keep talking about
despite what metal gear would have you think revengence isn't even a word.
@@angelusnielson7135 According to the oxford dictionary "revengeance" is a real word, albeit antiquated and rarely used these days. It was common in the 16th century though.
Worst video game names? Here ya go!
Touch Dic
Beyond the Beyond
Spanky's Quest
Sticky Balls
Booby Kids
Divine Divinity
Psybadek
Irritating Stick
Divine Divinity is an amazing game though and the start of Larian who are now famous for Baldur's Gate 3 ^_^
@@Justforvisit I love Divine Divinity. It is one of the best "Diablo clones".
Without a doubt the hardest I have ever laughed at the title of a video. I hope this will not be the only installment in this new series.
Even paused my adblock and watched the ENTIRE ads just for you guys..Because you rock.
Super Robot Death Machine 2000 kickstarter needs to happen!
The skit at the end was one of the best yet! 🤣
Thanks for bringing “Abadox” to my attention, Dave. Great ending sketch, too!
I love your unique topics for videos. It keeps me entertained and your show is one of the most looked forward to on RUclips for me. Hopefully you will do another game vs. video like you did for Rad Racer/Outrun. Good stuff! Thanks for your hard work, fellas!
Your segment on Hey, Punk! Are You TuffENuff? Master the Moves to Master Me! is what I've been waiting for since I discovered this channel. You even mentioned K's. God bless and thank you, Game Sack, for making us laugh about love again.
L Drake Tuff-E-Nuff: MTMTMM!! The immortal classic! This video could have legit been like three hours long.
Star Wars: Super Bombad Racing
Another great video guys, thanks so much for all the hard work you do for our enjoyment.
Xexyz was obviously named by the same person that named VVVVVVV; a guy desperately trying to win Scrabble.
LOL. That's funny.
Game Sack Dave Why thank you; I'm glad you liked the joke. I almost didn't post it, thinking it too nerdy and cheesy, but then I quickly remembered that this is a Game Sack video, and that the community around you guys is really awesome. Thanks for making such great videos and for being such cool dudes.
I'd laugh until I pulled something if it turned out that this account ( Game Sack Dave) wasn't really Dave, lol.
Hah, reminds me of an MST3K riff. "That's not a name, that's a bad Scrabble hand."
That game is pretty Xexyzt
Don't forget about Xexex or Zzyzzyxx.
Thanks Joe and Dave. I got a few good tips, a good laugh, and good times watching games with dumb names.
Ok, that was the best ending skit ever. Thank you for the much-needed, genuine laughs!
Still hoping for a second installment for this topic. Great job, guys!
as a person who only collects fun games you guys are the shit. so many channels only focus on completion. so sad you all don't have more subs. thank you for everything.
Any of you ever heard of a Korean DS game called Touch DIC?
It's more of an app, but still.
I have a feeling we have a few high-level players around here...
I always thought Slap Fight for Genesis was completely stupid considering the fact that it's a standard space-ship shooter. It's kind of like the box art of Phalanx in that it seems completely random and has nothing to do with the game.
Slap Fight is an amazingly awful name.
Well I was gonna get my life together but Game Sack uploaded
Another cool episode. does make you wonder what goes (or doesn't go) through the developer's minds when they come up with some this stuff lol.
I have fond memories of Tuff Enuff. I first saw it in GameFan and thought the graphics were pretty good. My friend at school used to talk about how much he liked that game, so I finally rented it for a weekend. My friend hyped it up so much that I was really excited to finally play it. It was different then other fighting games and felt unique, and the graphics had that SNES look to them and were crisp and cleanly drawn.
There is some good fun to be had playing Tuff Enuff if you give it a chance and look at it as it's own game without comparisons to other fighting games.
The last minute was pure gold! LOL
My friend had Xexyz when I was a kid! He pronounced it "exes," like, "all my exes live in Texas," and he talked about it so much and sounded so damn stupid when he said it that I never played the game. Now I see I missed out! He got it new at KB Toys for $15 like a year after it came out.
LoL. Good story.
Hehe. Thanks, Dave! :D
PS, good video! And that was seriously the best ending skit ever.
The fact that you mentioned RUSH makes this episode perfect!
P.S.: S.C.A.T. is a really stupid name for a game...anything but SCAT.
Greatest band ever! Neil Peart R.I.P
i love the skits at the end. Thats where dave shines
If you do a second part here is a suggestion: Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late.
Yeah, there is a game called Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late
Metal Jesus #hiddengems 😂😂😂😂
that fucking killed me XD
lol
Hotrodney prime do you mean Metal Joesis
man, ninja gaiden 3 for the NES is a great hidden gem!
gold
And here I was, thinking you would open with Bad Dudes vs Dragon Ninja.
Great clip as usual, keep it up DUDES. Always a pleasure to see what you come up next.
It's the first week of January 2024 and this is going to be your first episode of the new year and I believe it's going to be awesome thank you Joe
The dumbest video game name I've ever heard has to be Infinite Undiscovery.
And the best name is of course Fat Worm Blows a Sparky
always love your videos guys keep it up, cant believe you only have 170k subs!
I love Game Sack. Thank you for all the great content guys!
Rudeness! >:0
Oh my goodness, the dad joke montage at the end was just glorious. Please do more of that.
No love for Dash Galaxy in the Alien Asylum for NES? Maybe round 2.
Should have followed Xexyz up with Xexex.
awesome game, btw
In Finland and Sweden they should have followed with Xeåäö
Ashura96 no thanks but if you have any xanax to spare😀
Zezex!
Always the best. Just wish this show to be weekly again. Gratz
I thought I was the only one who called it "Residential Evil" just for kicks. You guys are awesome.
Faxanadu is a great RPG! I find it crazy that I have almost every game in this video and only paid on average $0.50 per game. Metal Storm is selling for $130 and I got it in a lot of 30 games I paid $5 for at a yard sale about 10 years ago. Now I can't even find NES games or when I rarely find some they want $5 for their Mario/Duckhunt at yard sales.
6 years later I know, but garage sales have gotten even worse. People see what others are asking for online, and think they can actually get that much, so they either don't put them out for sale, or try to price them at online prices
Abbadox should be named "The Insider"
I dunno... S.C.A.T. is kind of a winner.
Nothing ages like fine wine like a game sack episode 💯
Some nice games on the NES side I've never seen before. Thanks Game Sack!
You should do an episode titled "Games We've Showed in a Montage But Never Looked At Individually"
When I think of games with dumb names, I think of: Tongue of the Fatman for MS-DOS, Irritating Stick for Playstation and Sticky Balls for the Gizmondo. But that's going into the really dumb category.
The skit at the end might be my favorite of any you've done; Idk why, but I couldn't stop laughing for like, five minutes after the video. But yeah, great job as always, Mr Whitey and Mr Readyfiver.
Milton Bradley also distributed the Vectrex in the USA btw. They did dabble in video games.
5HINOBI Best Milton Bradley game on the NES hands down is Captain Skyhawk. Game kicks all kinds of ass
I like the quick reference to Airplane in there.
That got a hearty LOL from me. XD
I am one of those rare people with actual fond memories of Xexyz from back in the day. My friend got it back in 1990 when I was 7. We never beat it, but it was entertaining enough we never really stopped trying, at least for a few years.
Dave's on point about the "Faxanadu" name origin. It's true that Japanese love to combine words like that, usually it's to shorten popular phrases. You definitely have learned about their culture through games! LOL
"Nipple Tale for the Dreamcast" LMFAO! ooooh I'm so immature...
You tube channels with dumb names: Game Sack
legbert123 Yeah, what idiot would name their channel gamesack?
RUclips users with dumb names: legbert123
I always think of Bawl Sack when I hear game sack lol
at least that name is a pun, Game Sack makes me think of Video game testicles and makes me want to polish my kicking boots.
Game shack
Nut sack
Nut SHACK AAAHHHHHHHH
This end sketch was one of the funniest of all time. I'll be keeping an eye out for when it comes out on the sketch channel.
want to say i love you two, i watch every video and you guys really bring back memories for me, ive been gamiing since the Magnavox Oddessy ! early 80s
Don't forget Metal Gear Solid: REVENGEANCE!!!
mr.big excuse me but it's actually "metal gear rising : revengeance", and its not making it any better lol
how about ''Magical Flying Hat Turbo'' or ''Decap attack'' as it's known on the Genesis
Love your videos GameSack! Keep up the awesome job!
Skit at the end. the best. Hands down. Love it.
cant believe that " Marc Echo's Contents under pressure" isnt on here
Ar tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel that's a dumb name for a game.
nathan cadorette thats a pretty shitty game too lol
Rikku Freak I thought it was just average.
I thought was OK.
Wow, that one takes the cake.
Neo looks like one of those sticky wall slapper hands attached to a flash drive.
Woke up at 4am to get my 10 day-old son to my wife when, instead of going back to sleep, I get a Game Sack alert.... GREAT EPISODE! I always wanted to know if ABADOX was a good game but I never had the courage to try it out due it's name. THANX
when I saw the dreamcast I thought it would be Seamen
The game is Seaman, but yeah crazy title and crazy game.
love gamesack. cheers
Eric and the Floaters. One of the strangest game names I know of.
Extra points for that sweet Rush reference, Dave!
Did you guys record the Dreamcast footage using VGA? It looks incredible!
Time to open that Sack!
Love the Rush reference guys! Xanadu is such a great song too!
Yes. I love that song...
thank you for the correct pronunciation and explanation of Faxanadu, most people dont have a clue about the original series from Falcom. :)
You guys are 100% cooler now that i know you like RUSH. Xanadu kicks ass.
RUSH is love. RUSH is life.
I find the lack of Karnaj Rally for the GBA disturbing.... what would I call it? Who knows. Great game though.
LOVE you guys for introducing me to new games. Super Magnetic Neo? Crash Bandicoot? Bookmarked.
Faxanadu is one of my favourite NES games. I love sidescrolling RPG adventures, and this one is a lot of fun. The atmosphere and soundtrack is excellent. I recommend checking out the OC Remix Faxanadu funk medley, which is also awesome.
Dave mentioning Rush? Another reason you guys are great!
Aaron Jessee Mentioning their best album too.
The first album I ever bought was Rush's "Retrospective I" which had Xanadu on it, and it blew me away.
I can see Semen in here... i mean Seaman on dreamcast, damn autocorrection.
Yukito Atari You should expect to see semen in the game sack shouldn't you?
Do it for Nimoy. FOR NIMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!
best episode ever , thanks gamesack ,plz keep up
that's funny you mentioned "Faxanadu" the game not only is a spin off of Dragon Slayer but it is also the Origin of Ys from PC. and yes dammit i have all 3 titles of the games on my shelve.
But some games with dumb names have some of the best gameplay
Yesss! Rush rocks.
Not sure if this is really dumb, or just plain silly, but one of my favourite stupid game titles is 'Bastard!!' (with the two exclamation points). From what I understand, it's actually based on a manga, but received a couple of games on Super Famicom and Playstation.
Also, liked the little skit at the end with the messed-up game titles.
When you mentioned Xexys being a hidden gem on the NES I thought, "You know what else is a hidden gem and probably belongs on this list? Faxanadu!" Seconds later...boom!
no... not Faxanadu. that's a great name!
And a great game. Love it. I wish it was on the 3DS virtual console
What's a Redifer? -Fer talkin' about games.
Ha
I love the WKRP reference at the end. Gotta love Les.
Loved the quick/subtle WKRP reference in the post credit stinger ;-)
GREEN DOG!!!!
I expected it the whole damn video.
Sitting here working on my next review video when I get a Game Sack alert.... What to do.... What to do..... Really, is there any debate about what I need to do? I'm watchin me some Sack!
This deserves a part 2.
Loved the "hidden gems" shoutout to Metal Jesus... cracked me up... Hellfire, seriously one of the toughest games in my library.. couldn't even make it past lvl 4 with a GameShark
where's my beer? time for some,game sack!
All I got is Rum.
Andrew Vrba
Fair enough.
Anjel Alcaraz I has some jerkey
Final Fight Guy. It's about a guy who fights, finally...
Not sure if you were joking, but it's named after a character that was missing from the original SNES conversion of the arcade game. The original SNES version had "Cody" and "Haggar", while this later version replaced Cody with Guy. Hence the distinction: Final Fight Guy.
I know that. But the name does sound dumb like it's about a Final Fighting Guy.
Yay, some NES-games! Faxanadu is a great little game with lovely atmosphere. Only played through it once but the music alone brings a smile to my face :) Havent played Xexyz or Abadox yet, but im determined to!
In Veigues, your chest-mounted machine-gun can be aimed up or down with the D-Pad.
Although the game is very unfair, a simple cheat unlocks Easy Mode and the game becomes much more fun.
The American boxart is awful, but the original Japanese one is fairly cool.
just when they convince you there is no such thing as religion - a metal jesus appears
