The PS2 version of Xtreme Stunts was notably less buggy, and analog control is a godsend.

[@TheyMightBeBricks]

Lego Island 2 will always be my favorite computer game

[@DecaafTweakin]

[@hbcreates8355]

TheyMightBeBricks hey you’re here!

[@MDLuffy1234YT]

[@ultrarageman2956]

First and favourite

[@NO-1-U-NO]

🙂 Same here! Out of the 3 Lego Island games, 😄 Lego Island 2 is my favorite!

[@ireallydontcarewhatthisis]

About the "invisible platforms" in Island Xtreme Stunts - what you're supposed to do there is turn the flowers into trees or other things, then use them as platforms to jump up. I mean, abusing bugs in the physics/collision works too I guess, hehe.

[@Vectrex4Life]

+jamessterV2 Interesting, I had no idea such a mechanic existed in the game. Lol.

[@asasnat342]

it's been there since the first lego island, where clicking on things would change them

[@FlipzMCL]

Oh, man, the nostalgia trip! LEGO Island, LEGO Alpha Team, LEGO Stunt Rally, and LEGO Rock Raiders WERE my childhood, so it's always great to find other people who grew up with them. :) Interestingly, the Game Boy Advance port of LEGO Island 2 was surprisingly decent; it was extremely simple, and not all of the minigames were winners, but it certainly seemed a lot more comprehensible than LI2 on the PC, and it definitely ran better (though admittedly that's an extremely low bar to clear). From what I've seen of the other LEGO games translated to handheld, it's definitely one of the better portable LEGO releases, at least pre-3DS era.

[@taylortotter1579]

ITS BEEN 4 YEARS GIVE THE CREEPYPASTA

[@YOSUP315]

The large islands in Lego Island 2 a complete farce, serving only as a hub between very hit-and-miss mini games. The really funny part is how they let you travel back to islands you already completed so you can do... nothing.

[@kanjosidr]

Maybe that's where my habit of pointlessly walking around places in videogames was born

[@Dan_1348]

Hey! That's not true! You could go and visit your dinosaur friends who were all cheering you! Or go and collect any of the golden cups you missed from the knight's island!

[@ItsYaTrashboi]

8:13 comedy gold

[@gary0163]

dang. I went from lego racers 2 to this and I am incredibly impressed. you went from numerous loud outbursts and tons of time wasting to a good, informative video. Good job

[@Vectrex4Life]

Haha thanks! It was a coming of age.

[@graffitigorsk2989]

Dude, it's good to see you back, your video are actually what made me go into video making

[@Vectrex4Life]

+Brian Gorski Thanks dude!

[@WAGMILLC]

Whenever you did a skateboard trick in xtreme stunts it would display your score for that trick, then slowly "transfer" those points to your overall score. It must have been a glitch, but one of the times when I did a trick off one of the high points on the map, the score I got for it was so high it took HOURS to transfer over. It was probably over half the points I score overall. Tried for weeks to replicate it but was never able to.

[@Pokemaster-rm7vk]

good to see you back you make good content it's worth the wait

[@Vectrex4Life]

+Danny Boy Morris Thanks!

[@TF2Starlight]

+Vectrex4Life u think lego racers underrated... U r underrated :)

[@ccflegoandhistoryfreak4920]

Vectrex4Life do alpha team for forgotten games

[@mateenr7]

Dude, I am not one to comment on videos. But this literally took me back in time!!!!!! Your commentary on this was so good too! I use to play these games when i was 5 years old up to the age of 8. Now i'm finishing my first year of university and seeing this just made me appreciate how amazing childhood was. Thank you :)

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thank you so much! Glad I could bring back some memories!

[@Kooltrex]

THIS DIDNT APPEAR IN MY SUB BOX Im gonna drop everything Im doing and watch this because you make some of the best videos on youtube imo

[@JDDL2011]

I enjoyed Lego island 2 more than one. Just my opinion. Still enjoy watching your videos.

[@andrewhaywood1262]

IXS was one of my favorites growing up. I must say that the game was self-aware that the movie didn't make much sense because if you're listening to the in-game music in free-roam, D.J. Jackitt will advertise the film by saying "80% action, 20% plot. TV moments not guaranteed, imagination may be required".

[@TROOPER685HD]

I loved Lego Island 1 - my favourite game of all time :) I still love it but I can't play it on my computer :'( its probably too old and I don't know how I can slowe this problem

[@Cyberbrickmaster1986]

I'd buy that game again if I can find the Fun Club re-release that supports up to Windows Vista. The Fun Club re-releases of those old Lego games were the very last re-releases we'd ever see, as Lego is unlikely to allow them on GOG.com or Steam.

[@LeonMichael97]

U make these types of reviews so funny man 😂, damnnn i got nostalgic trips and im from 97

[@pokepat4433]

i have lego island on my current pc even though i was born after lego island was launched i was so obsessed with it when i saw it for the first time in 2012 on youtube, and also because lego is a very HUGE part of my life

[@zri3781]

6:53 “ They probably couldn’t afford me “ 💅🏽

[@colzarmckenzar9193]

i was 2 years old when i played lego island 2 and i felt that it was very intuitive game the storyline and exploration stuff and games that were going on and the environment was good too. it doesnt need to keep to its name been on an island either... because he goes to save his island.

[@Cyberbrickmaster1986]

Also, I'm glad you said that Island Xtreme Stunts was better than 2, because that's my personal favourite in the series! Also, did you know the guy who plays the director in Island Xtreme Stunts, also performed in Lego City Undercover, as the Italian mobster Vinnie?

[@lordreptilestormblade1749]

Brickster is most likely upset because he always loses. his few wins include: he stole a helicopter and the power brick (until it got recovered), he destroyed the Constructopedia (except the spine of it which allowed us to repair it with the recovered pages), and formed an army of robots (who have an IQ of 3 combined)

[@CEO100able]

I have all the three LI games. Good job!

[@ivancrosbie3576]

Awesome video. Keep on playing these GAMES!!!!!!

[@maxaffe3195]

Island Extreme Stunts was so much fun.

[@Bennett.R]

DOOOOD YASSS I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU AND THIS VID YASSSS

[@ovidio589]

Lego island 2 its amazing! I loved it

[@w1ntermode]

Holy crap, your editing is on point! Big step up from your last few videos, keep it up!

[@Vectrex4Life]

+SqueekyBeanz Thank you so much! This one took a while to make but I believe it was worth it!

[@w1ntermode]

***** Hell yeah it was worth it! I think you need more recognition.

[@FireAntoniyo]

Nice vid dude :) I remember playing these games. Keep up the good work

[@Yetoob8lWuxUQnpAahSqEpYkyZ]

The only access I had to Lego Island 2 was at Legoland in their digital building attraction in them in to late 2000s. It was always on every time I went there. I wanted this so bad.

[@SeriousGamingSteam]

Hey man, just discovered you. Great videos about my favorite childhood games! Loved the gag at around 5:35 where you were going to the hospital. XD

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thanks! Glad you found me.

[@longarmsshow]

Duuuuuuuuude, this video was so good! I loved it! Your editing is light years beyond mine! You have no idea how impressed (and jealous) I am! Can't wait 'til the next one, bro! =)

[@Vectrex4Life]

+longarmsshow Thank you so much Marc, really means a lot to me! I actually did everything in Premiere so getting those green screen segments to look just right was a bit of an eyesore but I'm pleased with the end result. Your editing is without a doubt inspiring and fantastic though! =)

[@lolman9630]

I used to play Island Xtreme stunts and Lego Racers 2 all the time when I was a kid. They might not be as good as the earlier games in those franchises, but I still enjoy them.

[@Thinginator]

I had Lego Island 1 and 2, but couldn’t get 1 to work on my PC so all I ever played was 2. I have a lot of nostalgia for 2, but now I feel like I missed out on something…

[@SQGReviewShow]

this Lego trilogy video was inevitable. I LOVED IT!!! I played the third one as a kid and loved it. I've yet to play the first two.

[@SQGReviewShow]

great work, Jason!

[@Vectrex4Life]

+The Side Quest Gamer Thank you so much!

[@null2846]

Holy shet, this is actually a pretty great video, subbed

[@mrcoolguy32]

Finally!!! I HAVE WAITING FOR DIS!!!!

[@mrcoolguy32]

BAHAHAHA "windows shitsta" That's so true!

[@claytonwhitacre1335]

Yay! Lego game!!! Great to see you back. :)

[@friendlyneighborhoodnoob]

I will never forget this genre

[@theoddster830]

Man, I remember watching this when I was younger

[@computercatgaming02]

You deserve much more subscribers man :)

[@pieterboelen2862]

I really enjoyed the comedy cut-scenes of the original. But the gameplay and controls were obnoxious. The third I never tried, but if I had to choose, *I* will choose number TWO! Sure, the loading times were RETARDEDLY long, but there was the JACQUES COUSTEAU section and the BLACK KNIGHT and a WHOLE INDIANA JONES island!! Plus, the music was GRRRRREAT!! Only that final platforming level was hoooooorrifying. It took me FOR BLOODY EVER to finally succeed. Even WORSE than Von Beck's Revenge on Emperor's Tomb.

[@DeckliStrater]

My two favorite lego games is lego islands and island XTREME stunts and for that game they release some lego sets based off it.

[@WeatherupStormz]

I played Lego Racers years ago at my aunts house when I was a kid I really enjoyed it :)

[@fvninja.]

3:30 how many times you tried to throw it into the trash

[@Maximus6G]

FINALY another one, its been 6-8 months to see another video on the channel

[@Vectrex4Life]

+Mustang Fan Yes, it has been a while. Thanks for watching!

[@Maximus6G]

your welcome :D

[@passagress]

Awesome video as always! Keep up the good work!

[@Vectrex4Life]

+Spyro Thanks man!

[@TheOstahaps]

I love this series.

[@drifter402]

I used to play extreme stunts 2 with my brother. Got a lot of fun out of that one

[@legonenen]

As a kid, I only tried LEGO Island 2... And thought at the time that it was a pretty fun, good, game :P I've even considered making a fan remake at times. for Nostalgias sake.

[@flying_Night_slasher]

They made Pepper's face bad in xtreme stunts just like the first one his face was good in 2 and I like his voice in 2 we need to petition Lego for more of this. Come on Lego!

[@lastnamefirstname5546]

I just found out about your channel, nice work! 😊

[@MrJoeyWheeler]

The inferiority of Lego Island 2 is because of how it was developed by different people. We could have had a different "Lego Island 2" which was based on other lego themes, with an underwater focus (hence the cave in the first game with the locked door), but the entire Mindscape dev team were fired so the company wouldn't have to pay bonuses, which basically killed the true Lego Island.

[@goblinwrecks698]

So sad that these characthers are forgotten. Although peppers face in X-treme stuns was really creepy.

[@matthewlea1634]

ITS ABOUT TIME

[@bluecometzola773]

this video looks xtreme

[@casaclub988]

island extreme stuns is my favorite

[@DeJake]

My God 3 videos in and I love you. Watch out for the bad guy everyone.

[@Vectrex4Life]

Thank you! Glad you found me!

[@lordreptilestormblade1749]

they can count those as stunts in their world, but in real life those would likely end in our deaths.

[@tarantula4197]

i watched 5 videos now,and NOW i realize this isnt lazygames

[@grilledcookie6259]

As a kid I enjoyed Lego Island 2 the most, haha.

[@showalk]

Dude, Lego Island 2 was awesome...

[@gamerofgamers1417]

WATCH OUT FOR THE BAD GUY, YOU MUSTN'T LET HIM WIN.

[@brennan2683]

When will you upload again?

[@ChuzzleFilms]

[@ZPS_STG]

Island Xtreme Stunts was actually the 2nd game I ever beat.

[@hillboy55games]

[@zpbstudios9551]

What was with the hiatus?

[@kl1970]

I have not forgotten

[@johnssonsmixed8303]

my first lego Island game was xreme stunts and I loved it. I was about 5 year old at the time, I was born 2002. then I got lego Island 2 and I got dissapointed. so I continued playing xtreme stunts until one day... the day my Windos XP died and I got a Windos 7. I couldnt run xtreme stunts on it so I had no way to play it so I started playing Lego Island 2 and now I've completed it more than 10 times. and now that I know there is a Lego Island 1 I just wanna buy it and play it. Today I'm 14 and I wanna play xtreme stunts and Lego Island 1

[@petarjordanov6240]

The greatest Memes of LEGO 2:48

[@silenceenigma587]

I heard from somewhere (mostly comments from Brutalmoose's Lego Island 2 video) that there was a patch that was given out from Lego and it was a requirement to have or else the game won't run, and once the patch was taken down, the game became near impossible to play. Is that true, or just another myth?

[@Vectrex4Life]

+SilenceEnigma For Island Xtreme Stunts, I believe so. I could never get the game to run on Windows Vista, 7, or XP. I ran it on Windows 98 in this video. I never got the patch so it is a pretty crappy situation for most.

[@ireallydontcarewhatthisis]

+SilenceEnigma The downloadable patch seems to just be a rumor started by a wikipedia vandal, but there are indeed two different versions of the game, with different EXEs that have different version numbers. Nobody's really tracked down the exact history of it, but one version tends to work better on modern PCs than others.

[@sir.confident]

I agree! Lego Island 2 wasn't really a good sequel. My reason was everything you said + the fact that you could barely go in any of the places and that you could only play as Pepper. When you finish the game, this is still the case - despite the citizens saying there is still lots of fun to be had. After finishing the game, I would've made it so you could go inside all of the buildings and play as other characters which would have missions attached to them.

[@thomaszaniboni1212]

Lego island was my favorite

[@robertcarldecker]

I owned the Game Boy Color version of Lego Island 2!

[@TheFlashStickman]

I wish silicon dreams were still around.
