Binging Bad Influence | Breaking Bad Influence | Series 3

[@YouTubeMrP]

This is a brilliant video that I really enjoyed. I can’t fault it at all. Absolutely brilliant and a guaranteed 5 out of 5. Despite that, as it’s an upgrade on an older version so I have to give it a 3.

[@Jizzlewobbwtfcus]

LMAO! the tone you conveyed was 100% accurate haha :D

[@SuperMookles]

This deserves at least 1000 times more "likes" than it currently has. Screw KZbin's algorithms.

[@arostwocents]

It's an issue for the whole channel. 😭 Just keep recommending RTS everywhere you go and every time you comment on another games channel ❤

[@gavinjohnson2640]

I just helped as much as I can by liking it.....

[@Lordborak316]

Yep, recently discovered and am recommending the hilarity to everyone I know.

[@KC_Runz]

This channel is CRIMINALLY under-followed! Have literally spammed your content the last few days since discovering you! Superb!!! 👏🏻 The Dizzy deaths vid was hilarious!!!

[@RoseTintedSpectrum]

@@KC_Runz shhhh, I'm a secret

[@mattffolliott-powell5105]

That bit with the virtually impossible CITV show was comedy genius! Had me cracking up! 😂😂😂 We need a whole series of that!

[@StolenArt]

So glad you're back! I paused this vid, went from one corner of my room to the other, started it again and KZbin had already shit the bed. Pleased they sorted it

[@freemansteinslab]

2:44:36 Oh god! Forgotten memory unlocked right here! The Innovation catalogue!! I had forgotten that legendary tome was even a thing back then!!

[@cubeflinger]

This channel has unlocked some of my core christina model mammaries. Sorry, memories.

[@dinobotswoop]

Time for a tea break Jeremy!!!

[@bunchofwordsaftertheurl]

He changed it from the manufacturer's name!

That's going to be my new e-mail signature... none of this Sent from my iPhone.

[@MoriartysDemon]

😂 absolutely hilarious. Totally jurassic

Much later: "Time to go get pissed down the pub Jeremy!!!!!!!!!!"

[@Infamousuk]

Bloody hell four hours! .. season 3 must be where things got really bad 😂 can't wait to get stuck into this .. recently lost my job so need something to cheer me up and this is just the ticket

[@RoseTintedSpectrum]

@Infamousuk you'll get there mate, good luck!

[@polymatt]

1:38:24 This fish bit had me absolutely f’n dying… just amazing man.

[@leonwalsh1978]

This is very funny. It’s not often I laugh out loud a fantastic series.

[@Makeroomformushrooms]

Adjusted for inflation, £49.95 in 1994 is approx £125 in today's money....insane!!!

[@Vassatta]

This just kills me. Amazing nostalgia crossed with wonderful humour.

[@TheBerendir]

This Channel through... The best on you tube, totally Jurassic!

[@isoesuper]

Even though this is so much less entertaining than I remember from when I was a kid, watching media from the transition period between 16-bit and 32-bit eras still feels strangely exciting. (I do remember being very upset when Sega Power magazine announced they wouldn't be covering Mega Drive games any more and were rebranding to Saturn Power, but that did inspire me to defect to PlayStation when we could finally afford a new console so I guess it all worked out in the end.)

[@Mr3Machine]

I find these immensely chill to binge, good stuff

[@destyrian]

I met Violet Berlin when I was 12 when I was a contestant on Head to Head - in retrospect, not a great show. However, I won two games before being beaten out on the third, and it was surreal to meet Violet after seeing her on several shows back then. I'd love to get ahold of those episodes I was on but there aren't many on KZbin.

[@ED-209UHD]

Love it how Violet grips that joystick 2 hours in 😂😂😂

[@AcornElectron]

You have to remember, the hype for rise of the robots was incredible.

[@RoseTintedSpectrum]

@@AcornElectron so was the hype for The Phantom Menace to be fair

[@AcornElectron]

@@RoseTintedSpectrum Episode one is waaaaaay more tolerable than Rise of the robots though. At least there’s duel of the fates. Also, there’s a scruffy flying Toydarian who the Jedi can’t blag. That must give it some credence over the janky shitfest that was ROTR?

[@RoseTintedSpectrum]

@@AcornElectron meesa robits wantu rise?

[@Nethetir]

@@RoseTintedSpectrum youtube offering to translate that to English ... good luck, youtube!

[@CruelestChris]

Then we discovered the advanced AI could handle everything except you jumping backwards in a corner and kicking. Right up there with Epic for the Amiga having the cheat included in the box.

[@thematicschematic]

"Computerised Noel Edmonds" - the most terrifying three words in the English language.

[@EvanBThompson]

What an amazing time for gaming. Saturn, Playstation, N64 on the horizon and 32x, MegaCD, Jaguar, 3DO, Amiga, ST, PC, Megadrive, SNES, Lynx, Gamegear, and Gameboy available. Will never be a time like that again.

[@alloriginalpirates]

The Lan Jam section was honestly inspired and just what I needed. I was beginning to get a bit privileged and bemoaning the fact that series 1 and 2 had more opportunities for your scathing but then Lan Jam put it into context/made me feel sick. Back into the warm arms of Bad Influence.

[@slippifishi]

56:09 WOW, when the 999 music started I was instantly taken back, I wasn't ready for that, what a blast from the past; I could hear the Michael Buerk!

[@tragiclantern]

2:49 I had a Super Game Boy and I *never* knew about the colour changing!

[@fattomandeibu]

Had that Bruce Lee game on SNES, it's down there with Rise of the Robots, but for different reasons. It has AI so unfair that it would make a King of Fighters boss blush, along with most fights being 2 on 1.

[@ae5668]

I had/have it on the jaguar no chance of beating it.

[@Lordborak316]

Started watching since, seeing you on This Week In Retro. Hilarious stuff. (Yes the 3DO had some alright games, if you chuck enough shit there are about 10 good games)

[@calamitysi]

2:58:55 Warning! DO NOT stare at the magic eye picture to try and reveal the hidden image. Andy Crane sudden pops into frame and will undoubtedly scare the shit out of you, as he did me.

[@simonRTJ]

Its so funny because i remember this episode mentioning Lucas prepping the new star wars movies, then later the following year I eventually worked on phantom menace! at leavesdon studios. so bizarre.

[@simonRTJ]

correction, it was two years later, not the following year. not that it matters i guess.

[@TrevorKevorson]

This probably my favourite of your videos yet. It brought back so many memories of talking about the new Jaguar and 3DO with friends and how amazing they were going to be. I've been in hospital for the past couple of days and your videos have really helped me pass the time. I wonder what some of the kids are doing now? I wish they'd do a Bad Influence special episode with the kids all grown up now, I wonder if Adam is still as brutally honest about the games 😀 Thank you for such a funny video, I didn't know what to expect at first and watched the first season over a couple of days after you had a guest spot on This Week in Retro. I'm glad I subscribed and I'm looking forward to passing the next few days in hospital chucking away at your great commentary 😀

[@RoseTintedSpectrum]

Thank you buddy! Hope the hospital treatment is going well - and glad my daft nonsense is helping in some way!

[@JBS201]

This is the funniest commentary I ever seen I like the running gags you make each episode

[@Jizzlewobbwtfcus]

I have NEVER heard of this _Lan Jam_ and it hurt something inside me. yikes! And Sensible Soccer was SUPERB!

[@grant3044]

It's brilliantly addictive. If you haven't seen the original you must watch this. The beauty of this show is you can just sit down and watch; and you'll never get bored of it because no two episodes are the same. Had it been original it would have gotten 5 out of 5. But because it's a commentary watch along, and part parody piece, our panel decided to mark it down by 1 and give it 4 out of 5. However I'll restore a star because I think the world could really use a laugh.

[@fatrunner]

I really enjoyed this video, it was very watchable. The graphics were good but once again it's just the same thing as the last two. Three stars.

[@ieatwobblebassforbreakfast627]

This video has consumed three hours of an actual day in my real life thus far, I have zero regrets... zero.

[@ED-209UHD]

You’ve destroyed my childhood and I love it 😂😂😂🤦

[@MMattJ72]

Sublime editing and veRy funny to boot.

[@tezzaskayakfishing]

I think season 3 finished you off mate, and I’m not surprised. A great watch (your video not BI) chuckling all the way through it🤙

[@neilok17847]

Hilarious stuff. Wish that Knightmare clone with you voicing the fish was a real show.

[@chrisburns7979]

love the 12 days christmas episode

[@seanpaulluke]

Still can't believe the cost of games back then. With inflation, they're probably closer to £150 now.

[@tarnetskygge]

I think about this fact every time I see people on the internet losing their minds because a new AAA game costs $70 or whatever... modern gaming is certainly not without its problems, but at least the games are cheap 😂

[@seanpaulluke]

@@tarnetskygge remember how dear the neo geo was?!

[@CruelestChris]

​@@seanpaulluke Adjusted for inflation Viewpoint for Neo Geo cost about £500.

[@user-yv2cz8oj1k]

I hadn't realised rebel assault was a rail shooter. So glad I was on a PC and was able to play Tie Fighter in the mid 90s.

[@vinnycochrane5139]

Your style is similar in tone and register to the brilliant Charlie Brooker!

[@ErikLosLobos]

Exactly what I thought

[@Phallica-js7ht]

Said the same thing to my friend when I started watching these.

[@martinmcwilliams]

Mate these videos are incredible.

[@TheTootyFrooty]

I will stick to the bootleg Lion King game were Simba hangs himself in the death animation when he dies.

[@LordmonkeyTRM]

Ah yes Socket the duck and Nuggets the honey badger. Also Nam Rood getting the derision and scorn he richly deserved ❤

[@bryngunn]

Because of this the phrase “information super highway” is how I only refer to the internet

[@arostwocents]

As long as you only "Surf" it as we did back in the 90s 🎉 I honestly think 'Information Super Highway' and similar phrases aided adoption of the net. It was a genius phrase that explained to non technically minded people what it was.

[@freemansteinslab]

1:30:10 That's Twycross! Funny story...I used to live in the East Midlands growing up, but moved away in ~91-92...wasn't until much later that I found out I had been living in the same town that Rare was founded...Ashby. They then moved to Twycross right around when this was filmed.

[@jimibaboza]

It is amazing to see how much technology has improved. I wonder how this show would have handled the 3D era.

[@f0rtuzer0]

Good stuff mate, thoroughly enjoyed :)

[@davylyons5704]

Dear Mister TintedSpectrum, thank you for your absolutely amazing vids, especially these Bad Influence ones, they're the most underrated thing ever, should have seven billion views imo. Man I'm so sad about what they did to Violet and Z and, of course, Nam. Things will just never be the same. I blame this terrible decision for everything bad that's happened since... Keep up the amazing work ❤️🙌 😁

[@fatmanonabike238]

Can’t wait to watch knighmare

[@Nethetir]

My main memory of Magic Carpet was when the Kennedy's got a PC in Neighbours, and Magic Carpet was literally the only game they played on it for about 4 years. Maybe it was a product placement or something. Umm ... not that I ever watched Neighbours ...

[@RoseTintedSpectrum]

@Nethetir I remember that to, I brought it up in my review of Magic Carpet, haha

[@CrashHeadroom]

Pressing F to doubt this, everyone's damn mum made them watch neighbours and you were no exception sir V_V lol

[@AgtX999]

Cowboys were the thing in the 90s, American Adventure theme park, Young guns, Tombstone, Unforgiven. Yeehaw mellonfarmer.

[@meneldur19]

2:14:50 - Holy shit, i know it's obvious but the amount of things this segment predicts in the most charming slightly wrong way is incredible. Wikipedia, Netflix, Just Eat, Amazon, Teams/Skype, PSN, Peloton - all mentioned.

[@user-yv2cz8oj1k]

No, in 1990s gay still meant gay, but it's showbiz and it was being used in it's previous usage from the 1930s, where it still had a double usage. Also I had a friend who worked in UK TV and media, and there were a lot of drugs, a lot of drugs involved, mainly anything to keep people working long hours. And from what I hear, there still is. Also in the music scene, because driving you around London, giving you drugs, and getting women to do things to bands, gets them to sign really bad contracts.

[@Simon_Simon_Simon_Simon]

Had to watch multiple times to try and see that hidden picture at 02.58.27,still no luck!

[@jimibaboza]

2:54:32 is that really posh kid?

[@bloodrunsclear]

Yup!

[@thebinkbink6349]

Cool!

[@EvanBThompson]

Amazing video, thankyou. Love their email address, clearly taking internet seriously. So funny when you subtly edit the footage.

[@251TheMechanizedSingfantry]

Namco's patent expired years ago (2015?), but nobody cared anymore by then

[@RICHL74]

No wonder the Stampers never give interviews 😂

[@ErikLosLobos]

I think this series documents the absolute tipping point from the era of 8 and 16 bit classic games to the early 3D dark ages (with some exceptions of course)

[@SingledOutPodcast]

I could watch a foul mouthed VR fish swear at kids for way longer than I would like to admit.

[@MMattJ72]

A dry sherry to match the wit 👍

[@Resimaster]

Violet looks like she raided the RARE studio and was holding Tim hostage, like when Smithers was telling Tom Jones to just smile and wave...

[@mrnaughtycat]

Me never watched it after nam left he was the man

[@mysterycrumble]

Kudos for The Grid and Rollercoaster!

[@andyspruce7817]

Saturn games came on carts and cd, wow i missed all those cart games. Did they ever not just make stuff up?

[@arostwocents]

Club Drive actually looks quite fun as an exploration experience rather than as a racing game. I want to try it oit.

[@TonySpike]

As someone who has actually played club drive i can honestly say no The san francisco level was interesting, but on hindsight was done better in Vette 😂

[@daveydavey3494]

This is what you tube is for love your content and no bullsh1te or telling me how to fcuking live pure fun keep doing what you do happy to sub to your channel ❤

at 17.44 all i can see is jimmy saville, i cant un see it lol

[@arostwocents]

I remember klick n play 😮 the games were awful but i remember having fun with it! Had forgotten about that completely ❤

[@andrewkent7677]

Love these videos, funny and nostalgic at the same time, I vaguely remember most episodes, strange we don’t have video game shows now with how popular games are, anyway the 90’s was a special time, keep up the good work.

[@JonathanAshworth-mm4jp]

Geeze there's 4 hours i won't get back. Did they think they were Tomorrow's World in this series. So many off game topics and VR. You done good though buddy ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🤘✌

"Cough up your dinner money, NOW, CRANE!"

[@FFVison]

George Lucas will continue to tinker with the Star Wars movies even in death. He did go to the "dark side" by selling out the franchise for a cool 4 billion to a company who never did anything questionable and always kept things true to the originals, Disney. Yes, Leia is a Disney princess AND she was indeed put into a movie using CGI after her death... We are all doomed.

[@arostwocents]

"youve only got four direction buttons" how many direction buttons was she expecting? 😂 Did Killer Instinct arcade and Gold have ring outs? 😮 I hadnt seen any of series 3 so this was great ❤

[@chebghobbi]

Eight? I always hated the PSX pad with its four individual buttons for directions as it made quarter-circle motions impossible for me. I could kick everyone's arse at any Street Fighter game *except* if we played on PlayStation.

[@CountryPistolBB]

This video is great. 4 out of 5, as good as Bruce Lee’s Dragon

[@robbrodie7581]

I am rewatching your bad influence videos very funny lol

[@arostwocents]

Wow i had no idea the Super Game Boy had a drawing feature (or that you could chamge the palettes) that's awesome 😎👍

[@L0VETANK]

1:25:30 Klik & Play had a posher 'pro' version called Click & Create. It basically became 'The Games Factory' and 'The Games Factory 2' then 'Multimedia Fusion 1+ 2' and is now called 'Clickteam Fusion 2.5'. FNAF and the AVGN game were made with it ( and a dubious app I made a couple of years ago). Also, David Firth of Salad Fingers fame is a fan: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2enl6eHq8p2gNEsi=lpDtxglMLmwFvv18 Liking this series btw. Been watching a lot of this and your Gamesmaster ones the last few days and chuckling quite a bit :)

and now we need one more video to finish the quadlology

[@RoseTintedSpectrum]

Just processing the HD version now, should be live in an hour or so hopefully

[@Cunaverse]

Another comment so soon because I just finished watching this over course of night, well morning now lol but that's another series down, your commentary had me laughing all night while I was playing new Indiana Jones game lol, straight onto watching series 4 now good vibes2u

[@TheBeird]

3:51:34 Now this I can vividly remember watching for the first time as a little kid, and even tho back then I took everything at face value and wasn’t full of cynicism like I am now, my feet curled up as tight as Bruce Lee’s fists with secondhand embarrassment. But after seeing that Lan Jam abomination? Andy and Berlin are tops in my books. At least they gave a shit, and in the end that’s all you can ask of people innit?

[@PokePub]

Holy shit. I nearly had a heart attack when Shaq-Fu got 4

…I actually remember that ‘Cartridge in a TV’ bit quite vividly…I thinking I have PTSD now…👀

[@DeeDeeKL]

Czech dude who lived thru it: The magazine was called just "Excalibur", together with "Score" and "Level", the Zeitgeist of gaming in east Europe... What stuff was there, would not fly at all today... Example one: Ad for the PSone was on three right pages. First page had a guy pointing a gun on another by a wall, shouting something in russian, you flipped and seen just a blood splatter on the wall, flipped again and "Playstation" logo. Example two: Duke Nukem with a recycle tattoo grabbing Lara by her hair, pointing a gun to her head and "Are you tired of her? Get rid of her!"... was an ad for a 2nd hand shop for games... Add to that long essays about "how drugs influence game creation", "How much fun is to kill nazis", "8 page analysis of the boobs and booties of any real life Lara models"...

[@RoseTintedSpectrum]

@@DeeDeeKL hahaha, insane!

[@jean-lucpicard5510]

[@ghostpanic]

I can't get over the heavy cost of console games in the 90s! around £50!, and people complain about AAA games coming out at £60 nowadays!

[@Walboro]

No, I'm not sure it's really fair to say MK2 is just an iteration of MK in the same way Super Streetfighter 2 is a minor upgrade from SF2.

[@D187S]

Shaq-Fu scoring the same ss SF2 is just ridiculous.

[@freemansteinslab]

2:12:31 Wait...is that...Ghost Girl!? I mean, it had been a year or two since we saw her last hadn't it? Maybe she'd had a growth spurt?

What's the song the Terminator's dancing to at 2:50:40?

[@leecroft1983]

Really wish they did side scrolling games for the Star Wars prequels. Super The Phantom Menace, Super Attack of The Clones and Super Revenge of The Sith. If they were made now they would no doubt sell well, idea waiting to happen.

Has anybody ever told you that you have the exact same voice of Rob Grant (Red Dwarf). This is a compliment by the way.
