Hope you guys enjoyed the episode! Glad to be back!

[@therevenger259]

That was one of the funniest episodes I have seen. Also why does the snes version turn pink when you use the super scope?

[@AmigaVR]

Awesomeness

[@DaGameNerd]

I still remember how funny it was that so many people donated this game xD

Back in the early 90’s my family stopped off in Las Vegas at Whiskey Pete’s. There was a big screen version of the T2 arcade game and all the kids gathered around to play it. I was totally sucked in and amazed by the graphics and set pieces just like the movie. Good times.

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

@@3nriquez It is I, lol. Thank you!

[@themcadamsminute8494]

Omg!!! I totally remember that game as well as Whiskey Pete’s! Thank you for bringing back this memory

[@Rschr101]

I've lost some money at Whiskey Pete's gambling. They should bring back that T2 arcade on the big screen. I'd drive to state line for that!😅

[@GPWT-video]

90-е - золотое время :-)

[@Level1Sword]

Dang, that sounds like a legit Weird Al song.

[@marcuswalker3409]

Question: What was the original song?

[@Bubba__Sawyer]

@@marcuswalker3409 You'd know if you'd seen Terminator 2....

[@desiv1170]

Yes, we are going to need them to release the full song now!!!!

[@miesvaillanykyisyytta3252]

You know how I know that Console Wars is pretty high quality and have high production values? I initially thought that the Weird Al video was real.

[@ConsoleWars]

We work hard to bring you guys the best production we can.

[@PurpleSanz]

24:27 You KNOW you were waiting for this since the beginning of the episode. Stop acting like you weren't.

[@baalfgames5318]

At least since the second hand guesture.

[@BM-wh5qk]

"I better destroy those desk drawers or else Skynet will exist!"

[@NotABot55]

Not that it mattered, since T3 more or less shat on the whole "no fate but what we make" coda established in T2 (and the less said about Salvation onwards, especially Wokeinator Dark Fake, the better.)

[@freakyfornash]

L.O.L., and what DIDN'T you have to destroy in that level, in order to truly beat the game? Apparently even telephones, fire alarms & extinguishers, lights/lamps, signs, and mere drinking cups somehow determined if the machines would succeed or not too! The desk drawers at least made far more sense, since there could have been vital, classified information in them at least though! 😂

[@The64Whore]

You guys never fail to make me go back and binge old episodes every-time a new episode drops. I love console wars!

[@SuperJim]

First episode where Sega hasn't defaulted back to "well your screen is cropped!!" as a comeback 😁 great video guys

[@ecernosoft3096]

Well.... 320 pixels is 64 more than 256 pixels in width. Even the atari 7800 manages higher resolution at 320 * 192 or 320 * 240! (In some modes.)

[@Wolfdragon92584]

Wow. You put a lot of work into this one. This episode is fantastic!

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you!

[@OnionLancer]

This episode of Console Wars was better than any of the films from T3 forward.

[@RockmanMegaX]

I liked Salvation though. I walked out on Genesis or Genesys or whatever

[@OnionLancer]

@@RockmanMegaX My dislike of Terminator Salvation lies at the acting performance of Sam Worthington, the character that didn't know he was a machine. I don't care for him as an actor.

[@RockmanMegaX]

@@OnionLancer If that’s the case then you’ve given the movie an unfair opinion. It’s not nearly as strong as the first two entries but it’s definitely not horrible. Worthington had some strong acting points though I don’t think he keeps up with Bale. I’ll give it a 60%.

[@OnionLancer]

@@RockmanMegaX You're correct. I'll not deny my bias against Worthington, thus my dislike of the film. I'm not saying it's fair, but I'm unable to separate my dislike of Worthington's performance from the film as a whole.

[@LUCKO2022]

@@RockmanMegaX Salvation sucks. They are supposed to be Terminators not throw people around inators. Plus the fact that it follows T3 broken ass which is impossible since T2 prevented Judgement Day (I don't care what the other films say, there is no way Judgement Day can happen at the end of T2) since Kate Brewster is in Salvation. Plus for end of the world they all seem to have perfect teeth and hygenie plus the sun with it being nice and warm (when there should be a nuclear winter) also hurts the film. Being PG-13 was the dumbest thing they did to the series.

[@SpotOnJ2K]

Dan and Pat's combined impression of Weird Al is always amazing.

[@mysega]

"The three b's" ? "I like drinking!"😂

[@dyl_pickle16-mta48]

The SEGA Genesis version’s soundtrack kicks butt!

[@ryzmaker11]

Yup! That Matt Furniss soundtrack is lit and I love when arcade ports get some special value like this.

[@crawlingkhaos8970]

A new episode of Console Wars? Nice. I always knew that..."you'd...be back." Dun-dun, dun-dun-dun! PS: I too am a bit worried about Eric.

[@ConsoleWars]

Dont ask about Eric!

[@GuestZer0]

I’ve been hoping you guys’d make this episode ever since “Revolution X”. Probably because that was available as a conversion kit for T2 in arcades. The trivia bits that stick with me…

[@ConsoleWars]

We like to goof around.

[@miahthorpatrick1013]

@Nathan Taylor I think you nailed the appeal of Console Wars: the perfect amount of cheesiness blended with a passion for video games and filmmaking (due to some ACTUAL production value being present) while being entertaining and comedic in nature.

Next Episode: fudge fighter. Delicious, delicious fudge.

[@raphaelturtle4146]

@@geebounit clay fighters? Never heard of it. You sure that's even a game? Listen man. I know my fudge and that is 100% a picture of fudge. Fudge fighter 63 1/3 for sega Neptune. I used to play it all the time when I was a kid.

[@andrewwissman6910]

Haha, I thought the picture was chocolate fudge too, which is a dessert. So I was thinking the next game might be "Desert Fighter." But apparently that game is only on Super Nintendo and not Sega Genesis so that wouldn't work.

[@mrdownboy]

This episode's amazing!! Great job guys with the deleted scenes! I'll take one of each please!

[@djayk9692]

Pro tip for the SNES, you take less damage using P2. Damage is divided down the middle of the screen and as the screen moves to the right, enemies move faster from the right side of the screen versus those from the left who have to walk with the screen moving. This leads to less enemies attacking on the right side. Hence less damage for P2. I always found myself dying far less using the P2 position.

[@ConsoleWars]

Interesting. I'll give that a try

[@gfkgrgrkm]

the edits are spot on, great job! loving the video👍👍👏👏

[@ConsoleWars]

During the lava deleted scenes: "Okay, when are they going to flip off the camera? I know they're building to it. OKAY there we go!"

[@ConsoleWars]

It had to be done

[@justanotheryoutubechannel]

This episode is amazing, and it’s very interesting for see that the SNES game gets much brighter with the Super Scope, I wonder if that’s because of the Super Scope’s sensing abilities as a light gun.

[@seXXXpac]
