DRUDES SANDSTORM - Buggy, Broken, Asset Flip? What Could Go Wrong?

[@colmoe]

That Iconic character is more Iconic than all of the 'Iconic' Ubiconic characters, since he has appeared in dozens of Gameguru asset flip games.

[@RubberyCat]

I'd say it is pretty iconic. It is recognized as "Generic Spec Ops guy that just _might_ be a character in disguise".

[@DangerNoodless]

Plot Twist: He is THE Gameguru!

[@Restless_Hermit80]

Well it is after this video came out :P

[@panko2848]

waiting for the store page of this game to have: "This is basically Dark Souls" - Jim Sterling 2017

[@smokegreeen4556]

He has no face, so his face never gets tired. Truly a super-soldier.

[@cheezdoodle96]

Well memed, my good sir. Well memed indeed.

[@jarg8]

Gripping let's play, Jim. Finally someone decided to make the Ghost Recon game that Ubisoft won't. This is the return of the true tactical shooter of yore. Thanks for playing it!

ARE YOU A BAD ENOUGH DRUDE TO STOP PLAYING SHIT VIDEOGAMES?

[@somelosercalledjab]

Are you a bad enough drude to rescue the sandstorm?

[@adampoole948]

i heard the lastest tom clancy game wasn't good.. but this is ridiculous

[@LifeWulf]

>lastest That's a new one!

[@drewsauveterre8867]

It's more last than any of the firster ones.

[@Python-el5hs]

Bioware helped with development.

[@DeathmanElf]

Well if you have 3 people to play with its quite good I heard But is fucking expensive for game needing 4 players to get most out of it

[@chdreturns]

Adam Poole Actually it was quite good solo.

[@sinwhisper1662]

"Hello, you strips of scrotal flesh stretched over a bicycle frame! :3" *JESUS. FUCKING. CHRIST.*

[@Call_Me_Matrix]

Hey, it's not as bad as being called a Konami Executive.

[@od1401]

Sinwhisper one of the best

[@sanmeiwolf]

The last one I watched opened with "Hello, all you sexual organs filled with hot wet cabbage!" I have no words.

[@Pyrorufus]

"I heard a reload noise. I think I've got bullets." Is there a sentiment that better describes this whole game?

[@Claymann71]

I made the mistake of making a large plate of midnight nachos & eating during your video Jim-Fucking-Sterling-Son. I nearly died choking on uncontrolable laughter at your sudden pitfall death at the 4:13 mark & then at the end at 11:39. That's TWICE I cheated death by nacho! I was even being really careful because the 1st time scared me a little but the ending was 111/10 MAGNIFICENT. THANK THE ALL-FATHER FOR JIM

[@finalcipher457]

You know you're in for a good time when the main character's opening statement is basically lifted from BUBSY.

[@c-puff]

I always imagine when Jim plays video games he's ALWAYS in the Jimquisition outfit. So when he mentions wearing headphones for some reason it really throws me for a loop because I'm still picturing the hat X'D

[@la120899]

Honestly how does Jim play these? After 1 minute I'd be done. But he goes for 11 minutes on a shitty game. Also he plays shitty games all the time. How does he deal?

[@Jerbsinator]

Lauren Because he gets paid to do it.

[@Silvernirvash]

he deals because he gets that great big green at the end of the day from each video he uploads lol. the money softens the hurt from these piles of shit cause him.

[@saromsalt1375]

U have to make longer than 10min video to get good pay.

[@kalackninja]

i as well remember the advertisement that didn't play before the video started

[@iglidor]

Regular bouts of insanity work well to vent acumulated frustration. Also Boglins. Boglins are answer to everything

[@RC__1207]

Meme based games like this are proof that the internet may have been a mistake.

[@scottholland4415]

Strelok the internet gives us porn easier. That is never a mistake!

[@RC__1207]

I didn't need the internet to discover porn when I was 6 years old. I had the luxury of owning a VHS player and a friend next door whose dad had porn movies on VHS tapes.

[@scottholland4415]

Strelok yeah but you couldn't take that into the bathroom to rub one out. Think logically! I remember young me discovering my dads porn stash. It was the greatest day of my life.

[@RC__1207]

Scott I didn't need to go to the bathroom to choke the chicken. I had my own room and the VHS player was put in my room so I could watch cartoons. Of course I smuggled porn as well.

[@RC__1207]

OldSchoolGamer Since you put it that way making Unreal engine free was also a mistake.

[@zombiegandhi8405]

"I'm not going to try fighting them from that wind--".....silence. Brilliant.

[@MegamanXfan21xx]

That ending... beautiful.

[@looker999997]

A Bubsy reference in a game that's named after an annoying meme that's set at the scene of an ongoing conflict that has ruined millions of lives. Ah, the times we live in.

[@LoonOfNature]

3:00 Honestly surprised the enemies didn't just keep going and kill you several times when you paused. It just would've been perfect and petty if the game took the opportunity to murder you while you were laughing at it, but I guess functioning pausing comes with GameGuru (damn!)

[@thene0nreaper878]

The main character apparently went to the Cyril Figgis school of shooting at things.

[@locust76]

Jim... why didn't you mention the hilarious recommended system specs for this game? OS: Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 Processor: Intel *i7-6950x* Memory: *32 GB RAM* Graphics: *NVIDIA GeForce TITAN X* | AMD Radeon RX460 DirectX: Version *12* Storage: 2 GB available space

[@sbuderlenyora]

Salamihawk storage: 100mb

[@TheSefirosu200x]

They expect us to think that something which needs those specs can fit in 2GB? What?

[@MSipher]

....I think the game is respawning badguys every time you die, but without removing any of the badguys spawned from the previous attempt. Because... that opening area gets REAL DAMN CROWDED a few lives in.

[@ambermauer8410]

when the character says "what could go wrong" does anyone else think of that one really annoying squirrel Bubsy from a tv show who's catch phrase was "what could possibly go wrong?"

[@Nikke-nn5mn]

"sometimes the gun just doesn't work" Well obviously jim, the game is aiming towards realism. Guns can jam and they do even in battle.

[@L-kun]

Bubsy's fallen on hard times.

[@Koboldfunnywow]

[@andhieyusuf7008]

WHAT COULD GO WRONG???

[@gimmecat6251]

Was Bubsy ever not on hard times?

[@L-kun]

Good point.

[@CarozQH]

The writer's strike of Bubsy 2 never ended...

[@etstral]

Gotta love that the loading screen is from original Dune game on the DOS. Cute.

[@Redbl0odx]

Hilarious how you were literally just talking about a few of these asset packs...and here they are!

[@Fiery891]

In the immortal words of the famous Bubsy. What could possibly go wrong? Everything. The answer is absolutely everything.

[@saifis]

"You die several times just trying to figure out how it works, and then you die" Words taken out of context can be so.... confusing.... because that sounds like a very critically acclaimed game about souls and shit.

[@bismuthcrystal9658]

It's such a cool, inclusive move to make the protagonist grey-skinned. It really says something deep about personhood and lets people of any race relate to Shooty Guy.

[@fang4223]

J.T. Seusoff as I identify as an automotive, I am very disappointed they don't allow you to play as the white van.

[@GhostofPhoenix]

Of course not, the SJW agenda has banned vans. Only black, pink and rainbow vans are permitted.

[@johnpolsen]

*cough*DUNMER*cough*

[@cian2168]

[@nopenope1]

The last few seconds killed me :'D the pause and then the "aha" xD perfect.

[@capthavic]

1:43 Hahaha! Holy shit are we in The Matrix? Are Trinity and Neo gonna show up and tell us to take the red pill? XD

[@unimaginativehandle4201]

from Level 3 onwards, they forgot to set the Lives counter, so you can get infinite respawns with your 3-shot 100 Health; it isn't worth it though.

[@erenyaehger6641]

I for one am glad Metal Gear Survive is coming along so nicely.

[@HitrisonMusic]

I love that the very first enemies you fight have goddamn rocket launchers.

[@Kuuenbu]

I'm trying to think of the last game where the player character's shots have no muzzle flashes, recoil, or reload animation, and the most recent I can come up with is the 1980 arcade game Berserk. That's a 37 year technological gap. Also that FOV is something fucking else, even for a third person game.

[@chiffmonkey]

Game name?

[@mrgaudy1954]

Why does Jim love asset flips so much?

[@ceglip1]

So is the character supposed to be one of those plastic green army men come to life or is it just that terrible?

[@P1nkR]

Actually, that would be an improvement.

[@EnderGraff1]

The ending lmao

[@crafterlula1328]

My jaw is on the floor... also my heart hurts... What a day to be alive! Thank god for ya, Jim

[@CarlSlime]

I want to believe the AI is actually sentient and made to fuck with you, because every time you get a step closer to progressing in terms of figuring this game out you die immediately. Between getting shot through cover, killed when you work out the reticle, blown to shit when you find out you can vault, it's uncanny.

[@lrr138]

That moment you remember a meme from 3 years you forgot about...

[@tfh85]

At 2:39 in the distance you can just see an NPC running away. Even the shitty NPC's of this game want to escape from it...

[@Hammerite]

2:42 What? wait... So i just looked back to the The Last Patient video and that has the same death scream at 10.16

[@easyvnie6496]

Hammerite its a game guru asset. Ive heard this fucking scream in many of Jims videos.

[@asszudemi2647]

the voice acting and radio chatter is actually pretty good ....are those store bought assets too?

[@LyghtningStryker]

asszudemi2647 probably

[@Arrowdodger]

Can't wait for this to come to PS4 and be featured by them

[@AceOThorns]

That last ten seconds - so profound and complete a summation of a product I have never before witnessed.

[@mrcheesemunch]

Watching this makes me want to die I wonder if one of this will ever...actually be good I'm half tempted to make my own one day, I have no game design skills at all, or programming skills so it'd be mostly if not all stock shit So basically I'd be in the exact same boat as them, is it possible to make a good game with this...

[@koobyboy4304]

Hello my good fellow youtube users, does anyone here happen to know the name of the song used halfway through the video? And if so, would you be so kind of telling me?

[@entity8019]

No, I don't.

[@HEYBUDDYMAN86]

No.

[@erenyaehger6641]

Some edgy name idk no one cares honestly No Bullets Fly by Sabaton

[@Romanticoutlaw]

Some edgy name idk no one cares honestly His World - Sonic '06

[@koobyboy4304]

I'm pretty sure those songs aren't quite the right ones

[@twitchfixer1344]

come to the UK Jim I'll get you a pint!

[@easyvnie6496]

Twitchfixer Jim wants the D

[@madness1931]

He never mentioned what he'd give a pint of.

[@jessedorame9064]

I'd give him my pint

[@LieseFury]

If you get him a pint, Laura will just shit in it.

[@klonvomhaus]

11:41 JFSS.exe (JimFuckingSterlingSon Inc.) has stopped working.

[@Biibop-cd3mh]

This video needed a laugh track at the end.

[@go_gorilla_go]

The misalignment of the menu over the triangle thing...aaah

[@MegaRfreeman1]

I think asset flips are a meme at this point.

[@edeyboy2931]

That last bit left me in stitches. I wonder how much longer the video would have been if Jim didn't drop dead right at the end like that.

[@revenhyrule7405]

Did he just take a RPG to the groan that killed him and bounced off lmao

[@striderkiwi2]

Happy to see CoD going back to it's roots!

[@almightysloth7627]

such an iconic protagonist. I'm waiting for t-shirts with his face on with his classic quote "What could go wrong?"

[@Jigglysaint]

Imagine if somebody made an asset flip so hilarious that it turns it into a legit good game. You would need a massive amount of talent to pull that off though.

[@ApanTrikha]

Here, "Something" in your video's description means everything 😂

[@TheTimeSlider]

The title is a pun from the 90s music. Drude was the "artist" sandstorm was the name of the track

[@Morkins324]

So, regarding the shooting, it appears the character shoots in the direction he is facing, which is not always in line with the reticle. When you you run any direction except straight ahead, that causes the character to turn and the aiming breaks. The flailing seems to be the game trying to reorient to the reticle.

[@hydraa2367]

Jim versus an undetermined number of bad games. What could go wrong?

[@trevorvogel8132]

I know it's early. But I do believe this a definite candidate for many GOTY awards later on. Bookmark this one!

[@micc98]

that final death was a masterstroke of game programming.

[@Liesmith424]

I've never identified with anyone more than I identified with Jim's moment of silence for the loss of his final fuck to give.

[@queenypie4543]

I like how at the end, it looks like the guy dies by tripping on a rocket launcher.

[@phoenixlich]

Oh this video ends so wonderfully! i'm out of breath from giggling

[@Mouzekiller83]

i lterally love the last 2 secs of the video. the reaction nails it!

[@magnatcleo2043]

I've heard of spray and pray, but generally that doesn't mean flailing like maniac while firing a gun.

[@WoodManGamer]

I almost spat milk all over my screen at that first shooting animation. at 2:35 we can see an enemy in the background run from screen left to straight off the cliff on the right.

[@vermilionshadow]

Whelp, might as well play the actual meme music in the background for this video. It's surprisingly fitting for this game.

[@XOLiD55]

Strips of Scrotal flesh stretched over a bicycle frame?

[@notdavid6893]

According to an ad on Facebook, there's going to be an actual HD remake of RE4 rather than a pachinko machine. Supposed to come out August 30th?

[@Shrike-Valeo]

Saw you hovering over main menu and thought "oh no..." haha :D

[@erionmema1]

I just calculated that the main character holds about 21.7 kg of bullets (47lbs) (Uzi pronunciation.45 ACP(15 g)*1450=21.75kg )

[@Choppytehbear1337]

Isn't that the No Mans Sky logo?

[@jebadiahjackson]

Dodging those rockets looks actually kind of fun.

[@mutantfreak48]

One would almost think that this is a BMC game, judging by the choice of name, engine, assets and amount of care and attention put in the making of this game.

[@JohnnyOstad]

Good luck in Seattle Jim, make us proud!

[@NelsonsTrousers]

Even the background art of the start and loading screens are free polyscape wallpapers.

[@curtiswarren183]

That main character is Ubisoft levels of Iconic. If this was a Ubi game, they'd sell his mask as "Green Man's Iconic Mask." Incidentally, anyone remember an old Ubisoft game called Pod, from the 90's?

[@paulkielty8385]

That. Is. The. Best. Insult. I. Have. Ever. Heard! Jim! Thankyou for that! I will be calling my friends bicycle scrotums for many years to come!!!

[@mr.sarcastic4679]

Well this game has implemented a reworked spray and pray technique where you just twitch just everywhere, and maybe hit someone, MAYBE, and the positives of this game well, it didnt crash

[@keld_rhygar]

If you listen at the beginning, it's that same music that plays at the end of "my bones". What is that music called??

[@seriousspikesam7770]

"What could possibly go wrong?" EVERYTHING COULD GO WRONG!

[@RGBeanie]

I know you've just played it Jim but this is so going on my to do list. I really want to do the odd terrible game on my channel for the lulz

[@haldeline8663]

6:31 I see all the budget for the game went to that UH-MAZE-ING mantling animation.

[@BuzzaB77]

It even nicked the name, a trance track in the 90's called Darude - sandstorm....

[@kirkpurdy1995]

Would be cool Jim if you would start showing us the graphics options, kinda interested on how they look haha

[@Freerunnerx10]

"Now what I'm going to do is i'm not going to try fighting them from that window *dies* ... (pause)... aha (video ends) I dunno why I found that so funny

[@Muida123]

The main character is basically a random soldier from MGS3 with diarrhea. Cool!

[@OmegaSoypreme]

"What could possibly go wrong?" Oh my god, is this the long awaited Bubsy 4?!

[@RiseAgaisntRocker]

That death sound! sounds like someone taking a dump after a night on the lash and a vindaloo.

[@andyenglish4303]

Watch out Jim, they don't need windows to shoot you, they have super clipping powers.

[@ryanpearse910]

I just had to chuckle when I saw this pop up on Jim's twitter xD

[@massivepileup]

Ah, so that's what the big number below the health means on the default Gameguru HUD: It's the lives counter! Some games simply set it to 1 but don't hide it.

[@richardcheese8095]

would you mind giving my game a quick review when i finish it? (simple suggestions would be fine)

[@FrankHarwald]

What's the name of the song 0:00-3:52? ;)
