Oh man, Hook on SNES is a surprisingly good game. I remember getting it for Christmas and thinking "darn, why did they buy this instead of something better?" only to put the cart in and and quickly realize it was a very good game. The gameplay really made the game work. It's definitely worth playing even today.

I bought the Genesis at launch and while I didn't hate Altered Beast, I never thought it was a good game - other than the graphics, which looks stunning at the time. But in general everything I ever heard about Altered Beast was that it was a good looking game that wasn't very good - and that was what people, my friends, what I read in magazines, all said. Not a bad pack in game, but not a system mover, and if you're going to pack in something, it should make you want to buy the system to play it. Sega did eventually figure this out with Sonic.

Thank you Joe 🙏 it’s nice to see someone stick up for Altered Beast for a change. I never quite understood why Altered Beast gets so much hate. Game devs were working with a new system/new software I suppose, but I think the game is fine. Nothing spectacular or noteworthy really, but I don’t think it warrants the hate it receives. Also, like you Joe, my opinion may be a bit biased and might be skewed through my nostalgia goggles, as it was the first game I had for the Genesis as well. Admittedly, the game is quite primitive and there isn’t a whole lot to it, but it still plays pretty well. The whole vibe of the setting, the characters, and especially the music, gives off a sense of foreboding. I don’t ever hear anyone praise the music, so I guess I’m in the minority with my appreciation for it. I LOVE the first song. It’s amazing how much of an impact music can have on a game. But anyway, I know I’m 6 years late to this video but I’ve seen all of the newer gamesack videos :( so now I’m binging on the older ones. This channel is by far the best gaming channel! We all miss Dave, of course, but I am so glad that Joe stuck around for us! I totally understand and respect Dave’s decision to part ways so he can focus more on his family and his responsibilities, but I bet he misses you Joe! Poor guy, being an adult sucks lol. Who wants to sacrifice their fun video game channel with their buddy, for their job at UPS 💔 lol I’m sure it pains Dave deep down, but I hope he and his family are doing well! Miss you man! And Joe, I love YOU! thanks for remaining faithful and not cheating on us like Dave 😆 jk Great video by the way! 🖤

I'm honestly kinda surprised you didn't accidentally luck into that, as that's how I figured it out.

Milon's is a great game. It's like a mix of The New Zealand Story, Metroid, and Simon's Quest. It is hampered by frustrating controls and sloppy hit detection, though. It's also great proof that nobody reads manuals, as it clearly states that you're meant to use your bubbles to break blocks to find items. Angry Video Game Nerd single handedly made this game out to be something mind bendingly impossible and ultra confusing, when in fact all you need to do is fire bubbles at everything and rub up against every wall. It's exactly the same as what you do on Metroid, but Metroid is a huge sprawling planet whereas Milon is a handful of little rooms.

A couple of things on Yoshi's Story (from memory having last played the game in...1998 or so?) - I remember the disappointment that it was more a kid's game than a sequel to Yoshi's Island. A lot of people were hoping for the latter than the former. That it was so easy was a bit of a letdown. - If you take it for what it is - a cute, happy game with fun mechanics - it's a lot better. - I think you can hit L or R or Z or something to hide the fruits - There's a bonus for collecting all of the light green melons instead of the other fruits. That's what I used to do for an added challenge.

Ahh such nostalgia with the snes version of Hook. I remember seeing previews of it in EGM. The colours jumped right off the page. It had great a snow level (a must for any platformer.) And it was as platformy as it gets. Just one of those good games you can pop in and turn your brain off

you can totally hide the fruit on the side of Yoshi's Story. I thought it was a shoulder or a c button. You guys should be more thorough

Another game that gets a bad rap is the western rpg Elex. Very underrated gem despite mixed and mediocre reviews.

I think it's the adhesive that starts bleeding through the label? My Altered Beast and GREEN DOWG are in the same shape. Streets of Rage, as well. I'll eventually replace the labels, because screw people these are my games. Not sure if I'm right about the adhesive bit, but I'm totally right about screw people. And I think they redid the voices from Altered Beast because Neff sounded like the snarky guy at a... specialty bar...

One game that I had a lot of fun with but got a bad rap is Way of the Warrior on 3do. The controls were different but not bad once you got used to them, and the graphics and secrets were insane for the time. Plus I really like White Zombie so I thought the soundtrack rocked, remember this was before almost any games had “real” music.

In "Hook," you hold down the "Y" button to fly faster and to RUN. That's how you get through the spiked corridors AND how you make Peter look badass. Also, the music is EXCELLENT. Easy one of the selling points for me as a kid - aside from the GamePro review of the SNES cart, which gave the game PERFECT SCORES IN EVERYTHING (seriously), was the amazing work on the soundtrack.

I have never heared a whole lot of bad things about Yoshi's Story before. Maybe Europe just liked it a lot more than America for some reason? Anyway, one game that I think is not as bad as others think is *Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts*. Yes, it's not the Banjo-Threeie we are still waiting for (but probably will get in the form of Yooka-Laylee), but it's a perfectly fine game in it's own right. Just forget about the marketing leading up to it or pretend that it's Lego Racers 3 or something, and you will have a lot of fun in a vehicular platformer with your favorite characters from the BK franchise.

I'm unlike most in that I don't let a brand name make me expect and hate something. If a Nintendo IP turned into some kind of RTS or TBS, I might be confused (unless, you know, it was one in the first place), but if it's a good game, I don't give a darn if it's the next Pokémon game.

I had no idea what B&K was before Nuts And Bolts, so, with an unbiased opinion (and as a child), picked it up, played it, loved it, broke it, cried for it. Stupid Xbox 360 laser!

You can run in Hook. Great game! Just hold the Y button down while pushing a direction and after a few moments Pan will burst run. Much easier to jump bigger pits later on. Love the show!
