15 Delicious Games Based on Food Products - Game Sack

[@vulgarismagistralis6974]

The Game Sack logo always makes me want to watch two gnarly dudes talk about a hobby we love. Cheers Mates. P.S. The burger king games can be played in both xbox and 360. The 360 enhances the graphics. Just pop one in the 360 if you want to hate them in higher res.

[@avatarofkomma2525]

Jeez looks like 90% of mobile games have Pepsi Man to thank.

[@Iliek]

Truly a game ahead of its time

[@billywhite6730]

Not sure if anyone pointed this out, but it's kind of a crazy story why Dominoes stopped having the Noid in their ads: On January 30, 1989, Kenneth Lamar Noid, a mentally ill man who thought the ads were a personal attack on him, held two employees of an Atlanta Domino's restaurant hostage for over five hours. After forcing them to make him a pizza and making demands for $100,000, getaway transportation, and a copy of The Widow's Son, Noid surrendered to the police. After the incident ended, Police Chief Reed Miller offered a memorable assessment to reporters: "He's paranoid." Noid was charged with kidnapping, aggravated assault, extortion, and possession of a firearm during a crime. He was found not guilty by reason of insanity. Noid spent three months in a mental institution, and eventually committed suicide in 1995. This incident caused Domino's Pizza to discontinue advertising using the Noid as their mascot.

[@Jesse__H]

That's really interesting! Thanks for sharing.

[@NickJaime]

Well they thought enough time has passed because he's back in there commercials.

[@KasumiKenshirou]

😆 "He's paraNOID"!

[@ShenRHHINOTR]

@@KasumiKenshirou Dislike for the emoji, but the joke was solid.

[@deftones8717]

@@ShenRHHINOTRsorry, I know I’m a year late, but the dude didn’t come up with the “paraNOID” joke.. the OP pointed out the irony of the Sheriff’s comment about the suspect being “paraNOID”… the guy who you replied to literally just repeated the same joke, but capitalized the NOID part. Haha

[@Kem1kal13]

So the California Raisins basically shoot their own blood at people? METAL

[@hoodieninja_7203]

Game Sack? More like Game Snack!

[@SuperPiposaru]

......

[@escapegoat1847]

+HoodieNinja_7 More like Game Slack judging by the frequency of their videos.

[@hoodieninja_7203]

Chris Johnson Uh... No. They produce long videos with footage from tons of different games, and all carefully edited. Their videos come out rather frequently, given that.

[@escapegoat1847]

Well, compared to Feminist Frequency, sure.

[@hoodieninja_7203]

Chris Johnson Okay, let's make a deal. YOU produce a show with about 30 minute episodes using footage from over ten games and scripted narration, do all the research to make yourself not look like an idiot, coordinate all that stuff with another person, meet up to record with that person, and don't hire anyone to edit for you. THEN try to put out one episode of that out a month. Anita is a fucking scam artist, and I say this as a feminist gamer that actually knows her shit. She selectively picks out details that sometimes don't even support her case (example, Krystal, a character who AFTER Starfox Adventures goes on to call out Fox on being a fucking sexist before running into battle with nothing but a blaster and hatred), just to make some claim to the nearly 1 MILLION DOLLARS she scraped off of the asses of uninformed feminists who thought she was anything but bigoted, sexist, and a downright bitch.

[@TrueyLewis]

I adore Cool Spot. Such a guilty pleasure.

[@scottcowan7343]

+RetroGamingTube 85 Agreed.

[@MartinCaballero77]

+RetroGamingTube 85 My cousin, my brother and I loved that game until one day we used an infinite lives or somthing similar and ruined the game experience.

[@juanfacundomendozabari8589]

idk why or how i own that game for my snes. but my GF loves it

[@TesseractE]

Totally. I had it on the Game Gear (which the guys didn't mention!)

[@MizfitZer0]

The mega drive version controls like a dream. It is has amazing controls and music. Better than it has any right to be lol

Best birthday gift I could ask for, a new Game Sack episode! Thanks so much guys, although I'm not sure if anything can top the last one.

Love watching Game Sack before going to sleep. You guys rock!!

[@stevebourassa8874]

They should make a fighting game with all these mascots. Imagine a dual between Colonel Sanders and good ol'Ronald. Or Captain Crunch vs Tony the Tiger. Wouldn't it be exciting ? By the way keep up the good work guys, it's always a pleasure to watch your videos.

[@Andres33AU]

At 13:05 I'm surprised Joe didn't say "Well these games will really cut the mustard!"

[@Johnathan1988]

Another great video Game sack! It's always interesting to see what kind of games were out there that I never would have considered or known about thanks to you guys! I've been able to recognize these games easier in the wild. Looking forward to the next one!

[@swissmrkc]

Great video as always. The hate with the burger king games" trying to sell it self as a full game?" not really.. this was 3.99 with purchase of burger king food. I thought it was quite good for 3.99. Big Bumpin ice hockey was the best, we'd play that exclusivly back in the day for hours. that was a tiny hidden gem in those 3 games.

[@swissmrkc]

+swissmrkc also the 360 and og xbox were the same disk...can be played in both systems, the graphics are cleaned up a bit for the 360

[@terencehill2320]

Tommy Tallerico didnt make his own music in the McDonald's commercials and he sounded like Norm in that game but Norm was a much better person rest in piece Norm.

[@slopesgameroom]

mc kids WAS also released on the gameboy but was renamed mcdonaldland so cool spot was a sprite swap of that game. also mc kids changed its name to mcdonaldland here in the uk with far better box art.

[@sgiacomo84]

One of the few channels that I click the like button before even watching the video!! Always that good!

[@isidromontes6046]

Haha great episode! Hate raisins but loved the California raisins when I was a kid.

[@JohnToner320]

Crazy Taxy on the Dreamcast had cool product placement in the form of franchise buildings. I think Pole Position had Marlboro billboards. I think I want to take up smoking.

[@JAC3DG33K]

Pizza Hut while playing TMNT 2 The Arcade Game when I was a kid.

[@TheLastLineLive]

actually funny that Pizza Hut sponsored the game because Dominos sponsored the movie.

[@PcVgLife]

This skit foreshadowed the future!

[@wendyrobinson9759]

Fun fact: Yo! Noid included a coupon for a free Domino's pizza. A fun game and a free pizza? Yes please!

[@terencehill2320]

That's not a fun fact. Turn in your gamer card

[@tightlypackedcoil]

Japanese Fighting Vipers with PepsiMan would have been a good follow up to PepsiMan. Also, TMNT2 for NES featured many ads for Pizza Hut, and even came bundled with Pizza Hut coupons.

[@frozenaorta]

Domino's is actually pretty good now. I grew up in the late 80's and 90's eating Domino's all the time (it's what my parent's ordered). It was awful. Cardboard crust, bitter sauce, and dried up cheese and toppings. It was balls. But they reinvented it, and it's now quite tasty.

[@GameSack]

+frozenaorta Jen bought Domino's recently and it still wasn't very good. The crust was the best part but still not as good as Pizza Hut pan crust. It tasted better reheated the next day than it did fresh.

[@frozenaorta]

Game Sack Hm. Well, perhaps it differs from store to store. I really enjoyed the pepperoni and mushroom I had. The crust was flavorful, and the cheese and toppings were prepared well. Honestly, I think Pizza Hut has gone downhill a bit. I LOVED it as a kid (remember those "Book It" free personal pan pizza coupons you'd get at school for reading a book?). But I don't think the crust and overall quality are as good as they used to be. Maybe I'm just getting old and bitter. For my money, Giordano's in Chicago still makes me the happiest.

[@vtrip_]

+frozenaorta i think that dominos best thing ever was their new yorker pizza. unfortunately they dont make that anymore. other than that i really dont like dominos. back in the 80s it was crap, and even today its still crap. i like pizza hut or papa johns.

[@TooBokoo]

It honestly depends on the location, if you ask me. My local Domino's is always pretty damn good, but I've ordered from some that are downright awful. Same goes for Pizza Hut. They've also changed their recipes quite a bit in the last ten years. I still like their deep dish, but back in the 90s and early 00s, nothing could touch their deep dish. Then they went and fucked with the formula!

[@stephenbianchi7141]

+TooBokoo I agree, and it's kinda crazy. As much as these franchises try to eliminate variables, you really can't depend on two different locations to be similar. When I worked at Taco Bell, things were always getting simpler to try to improve consistency.

[@JomasterTheSecond]

"Short lived mascot Pepsiman"?!?! PEPSIMAN IS ETERNAL!!

[@b3ans4eva]

You mention Tommy Tallarico on both Global Gladiators and Cool Spot, but neglect to mention Dave Perry programmed both of them. They even share the same engine. :p

[@GameSack]

Yep. I usually blame Dave Perry in other episodes when I complain about the screen snapping back and forth. Didn't wanna sound TOO MUCH like a broken record.

[@ColourShedProductions]

Great episode as usual guys! I've got a good idea for a future Game Sack episode, Metroidvania games that aren't Castlevania or Metroid. If you want you can also add those games...

[@bennyblancofromdabay9280]

hey when are you guys gonna do the episode of games that use the select button?

[@joeedwards2524]

Wow!!! The only thing more scrump-diddly-icious than a game sack episode is GAMESACK: the MOVIE!!!!

[@escapegoat1847]

Pepsi was the taste of a new generation 2 generations ago.

[@joedigger9919]

Yup, which is also the time they tried Crystal Pepsi (which I actually kinda liked)

[@escapegoat1847]

I remember limited edition strawberry, raspberry and cherry pepsi here in Australia in the early 90's. I'd never heard of Crystal Pepsi til you brought it up, which is a shame. I can't get a cherry coke here unless I pay import prices.

[@GameSack]

+Chris Johnson The taste of that generation. Not this one. Sorry Pepsi. :)

[@rnk99999]

+Game Sack were you able to get the pepsi stains out of your shirt after you dribbled on it lol? this episode was great!!

Not gonna mention that Pepsi Man is essentially Temple Run on mobile phones? Except made nearly 20 years beforehand? Temple Run is a blatant rip off of the game.

[@GameSack]

Yeah we don't really play games on our phone.

[@ViperAcidZX]

If you guys do another episode based on food products, you gotta include the Chex Quest series. It's basically a G-rated Doom game sold in cereal boxes but it's good.

[@domb2NY]

lol I remember Chex Quest. I think it also had additional DLC levels

[@darthv72]

they got whataburger in Colorado? thought that was a Texas thing.

[@GameSack]

I wish they had it in Colorado. I, however, have been outside of Colorado so I am aware of its existence. So good.

[@the_original_Bilb_Ono]

+Phillip McConnochie Could do a few episodes :D

[@Boojakascha]

+Game Sack +jimu _ I think Joe assumed you were trolling =) They did a great episode on this topic on: finalbosses.com/game-music-sack-is-some-video-game-music-plagiarized/ They can't put it on KZbin because of the money hungry music Nazis.

[@GameSack]

Boojakascha That's a good one we could only do on Final Bosses since we compare it to a lot of non-videogame music. Definitely worth checking out. But we'll do an episode just about some of our favorite videogame music next month. :)

[@OperationPhantom]

Another winner! Nice theme, the general level of writing is really good and well paced compared to the early days. The Sack now oozes proffesionalism, for quite some time too! Someone should make a Game Sack based game one day. Thanks also for including Amiga footage! That's MY teenage years computer (after the C64). That's probably because I'm European and somehow, computers were more common than consoles as entry level machines. I'm still catching up! The Cool Spot platform game was also released for the Amiga. It came on three floppies, if I remember correctly... Another game with sponsored interests, was Zool, a Sonic inspired game that was made possible because of the kind folks over at Chupa Chups. Lots of lollipops.

[@yourpoodlebobthefish]

whenever I get hungry, I just look to The Sack to fill me up

[@TFSyndicate]

That Raisins game was the icing on the cake. Way to go, guys!

[@DennisTrinka]

Not gonna lie. I was eating pizza while watching this (not dominoes), and the more y'all talked about Pepsi, the more I wanted it. Eventually ran across the street to the corner store and got one. Well done product placement team, you win.

[@MiloTheMightyDude]

Similar thing here, though I wanted Coke.

[@Shawn__Martin]

Cool Spot was one of a hand full of games I played on my friends Genesis as a teenager (I had an SNES). I have always had fond memories playing that game and remembered it as a good game. I'm glad it actually was good and not just nostalgia I've been on the look out for a copy and don't want to be disappointed when I finally get to play it again. Great video as always and good topic.

[@4packdaddy]

The McDonald’s jingle you guys are too much ! I love it.

[@camtoth8864]

The only one i could think of was the PIZZA HUT logos in TMNT the arcade game on the NES

[@brianlauber]

TMNT 2 and 3 for the NES had a lot of product placements for Pizza Hut, if I remember correctly. In fact, I'm pretty sure they included a Pizza Hut coupon in the back of one of the manuals.

[@JMFSpike]

The 2014 movie was a reboot, not a remake.

[@KamisamanoOtaku]

Aww... not even a brief mention of Pepsi Man in the Japanese version of Fighting Vipers?

[@BKKGarrett]

"... and the music complements the graphics with its uninterestingness" . Love it!

[@jasonhubbard6775]

I've eaten Dominos Pizza a few time over the past year. The thing with their pizzas is that they butter the crusts, which is yummy enough, but I wish they could add more sauce without having to make you pay extra for it.

[@JazGalaxy]

+Jason Hubbard I ordered a pizza for the first time forever last week and I ordered it with extra sauce. It STILL had very little sauce. I was disappointed. I guess that's a cost saving thing, maybe?

[@DonutSwordsman]

Rock on Gamesack!!!!! made my day, thanks for all your guys awesone work

[@tonk82]

Nice video. I really like when you choose this kind of peculiar themes.

[@MissAshley42]

Of course I remember the Noid! Even as a kid, I thought the idea of him in a starring role was novel, so I rented Yo Noid and (somehow) beat it. And I'll never be able to forget the California Raisins because I had to wear a trash bag and dance to "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" in my 2nd grade PE class. As far as other food-branded games go, I hear people really liked that Sourpatch Kids game.

[@AlienExorcist]

Domino's has definitely gotten better in the last few years, Dave. Try one of their subs too! Also, I agree with Joe. Coke kicks the crap out of Pepsi ;P

[@joedigger9919]

Nah, it's really all about Dr. Pepper.

[@antthomas1041]

Kaneko made a SNES game based on 7 up's Fido Dido mascot in the 90s. It never got an official release

[@MartinCaballero77]

+Ant Thomas It was also going to be released for the Genesis but it was cancelled too. The ROM is widely available on emulation sites, though.

[@Sidescroller64]

That end skit was brilliant.

[@frankgonzales115]

Thanks guys! As always, I enjoyed your videos and keep them coming

[@MrKroogur]

Yes i do remember the Noid. And since i am apparently older than dirt here are three games you may have overlooked. Kool Aid Man for the Atari/Intellivision Pepsi Invaders for the Atari And for our four legged buddies (say that 3 times fast) Chase the Chuckwagon for the Atari, yes they actually made a game about dog food and it was terrible

[@JazGalaxy]

+MrKroogur I wondered what happened to the NOID a few years ago because he just disappeared. The story is pretty fascinating and bizarre...

[@noelvandemaele2765]

Crazy Taxi springs to mind with product placements for Pizza Hut, the Levis store and Tower Records among others ^^

[@SomeOrangeCat]

My favorite Tie-in is Chex Quest. It came free with boxes of Chex cereal, and was basically a standalone DooM II conversion, and believe it or not, its actually pretty entertaining.

[@sarmak87]

I love when I remember it is Saturday night, and there's new game sack!

[@Aco137AR]

TMNT II had pizza hut ads in level 2 I believe.

[@stufaman]

Pepsiman also appeared in some versions of Fighting Vipers, YAY!! ROBOCOD (James Pond 2) advertised Penguin biscuits in the UK. And the brilliant ZOOL originally advertised Chupa-chups sweets and lolipops. They made me want to eat muesli.

[@gnussyflarkin]

[@ssjup81]

I remember the Noid. I used to like the commercials. California Raisins too. I actually used to have a California Raisins poster in my room when I was in elementary school. I used to have a few of the small figures too. Lost them when my family moved, though. Talk about a blast to the past. I forgot all about the California Raisins.

[@juiceala]

An episode dedicated to food themed games, honestly I didn't see that coming, but I'm happily surprised. Ya know, Pepsi-Man was insanely popular here in the middle east back in the day, even as a crazy Pepsi guy I never knew what's people saw in it, even today people get very nostalgic for it. @Joe funny you would use the term "This is a crappy mini-game trying to sell itself as a full game" I felt the same about most iPhone games including the all mighty Angry Birds.

[@NuclearCherries]
