Games That Can't Decide What They Wanna Be - Game Sack

[@GameSack]

What are some other good games that can't decide what they wanna be?

[@Ninjamohawk]

Game Sack WURM: Journey to the Center of the Earth for the NES. Really late title that is part vertical shmup, part horizonal shmup, part first person "shooter" and part platform adventure action game like Golgo 13 (many people from the first Golgo worked on this game). It's a mess, and not great but very interesting.

[@duhmez]

Another great game for this series, "Henry Hatsworth Puzzling Adventure for Nintendo DS. Awesome, half platformer, half PUZZLE game! Truly unique an dowuld fit this series perfectly! And it's really really good. hack and slash action platformer and 1/2 puzzle game with blocks. Another great one, "monster Tale" For NIntendo DS. It is 1/2 metroidvania platformer adventure, and 1/2 monster pet raising and leveling and the monsters al level up and assist u too and u can feed them down in their home on the bottom screen. Reaslly amazing game.

[@duhmez]

Also ACTRAISER for SNES! It is 1/2 action sword platformer, and 1.2 town bulding SIM game!

[@Ninjamohawk]

duhmez great recommendations. Both actraisers and Henry hatsworth are great games to boot

[@dabomb3336]

I'll say Starfox Assault or Megaman X7

[@28Pluto]

*ActRaiser* has that crazy combination of action platformer alongside a build-a-city simulator. Luckily, it's a great game and the two genres work surprisingly well together.

[@JetWolfEX]

Quintet was great at doing that sort of thing, many of their games had multiple types gameplay , kind of like the Dark cloud games, action RPG and town building.

[@thingsiplay]

Yes, Actraiser one of my favorite games. The European version got an extra mode to play the action platform levels only for those who don't like the sim part. It is nice to have.

[@sirisaxmanable]

Beat me to it, but yeah, I agree. That's the first game I thought of when I saw the title.

[@michalander2131]

But the sequel, ActRaiser 2 was "100% Pure Action and Excitement!".

[@SomeOrangeCat]

[@niespeludo]

"(Some of the weakest music you'll hear on the Genesis)" on Back to the Future 3...

[@almightycinder]

Hybrid Heaven on N64 is a good example. It's a 3D third-perspective game like Resident Evil... until you bump into an enemy. Then it's an RPG-wrestling hybrid, where you use turn-based RPG menus to fight the monsters with your wrestling, boxing and kickboxing moves. You're also a blue mage, so the only way to learn new moves is for the monsters to do their wrestling moves on you. It looks really weird to see this skinless broccoli monster pick you up and do a power bomb, then while you're still on the ground, put you in a Boston crab.

[@chaospoet]

Never heard of CrossFire but now I have the 90s toy game theme song stuck in my head.

The Bayou Billy comics that were published as a tie-in to the game actually retain some decent value. They were drawn by Amanda Conner.

(in a weird electric voice) THE ADVENTURES OF BAYOU BILLY

[@spongbros]

“Bayou Billy? You’d better’ve saved the receipt!”

[@iami3rian394]

I have always liked this game. I feel like Bayou Billy is underrated

[@jkajmo]

Wow I am blown away at the footage of the Toy Story game. Not only does look stellar but the frame rate is unbelievable! Wowza! See, this is why I freakin love this channel. Only these guys would take the time to present a game like this. I'd always look past Toy Story when game shopping & not once ever gave it a chance. I need to get my hands on this little gem. Thanks Sacks!

[@shaggydee91]

Toy story is an underrated game indeed it's a great license tide in movie game

[@CrossoverGameReviews]

If you are interested in the game, check out GameHut. It's a channel owned by the creator of that and many Traveler Tales games and goes into detail about how they made it possible. It's a really great channel.

[@jkajmo]

@@CrossoverGameReviews Ok sweet, I'll totally check it out. I really like Travelers Tales & especially seeing the behind-the-scenes on video games. Thanks for the recommendation. Yesterday I actually watched the "making of Axiom Verge" DVD that came included in the ultimate edditon of the game & it was AWESOME.

[@duffman18]

His channel really makes me appreciate how much of a genius programmer he is. The way he managed to get a full FMV intro on a regular genesis cartridge for Sonic 3D blast, not the Sega CD and not requiring special chips, is incredible. That should be impossible you'd think. When I was a kid playing it back in the day I didn't really get why that was such a special thing. His Directors Cut of Sonic 3D Blast is on the steam workshop for the genesis classics collection if anyone wants to try it. Also it's available on sites like Sonic Retro to play in emulators. Fixes all the issues with the game. Mind you I loved it back in the day anyway, though I know I'm in the minority.

[@Wyrdwad]

Obligatory, but Golvellius definitely counts, seeing as how it's an overhead-view Zelda-style game that suddenly becomes either a side-scrolling platformer or an auto-scrolling overhead shooter as soon as you enter a dungeon. Falcom's Star Trader mixes RPG and shmup in a different way than was covered in this episode. The Adventure of Little Ralph on PS1 is a Ghosts 'n Goblins-style platformer, but with random fighting game-style bosses thrown in from time to time (and it's also a really damned good game!). Speaking of fighting games, Vanillaware is pretty good at mixing fighting game-style combat into RPGs. Just look at Princess Crown, Odin Sphere, and/or Muramasa. And for an obscure totally-out-there title, I recently bought an MSX game called "Cosmic Psycho." The disks are moldy and need to be cleaned, so I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but it's apparently a hentai visual novel... with shmup stages mixed in. Hopefully, I'll get to see how that turned out sometime in the near-ish future! Because I am definitely very curious.

[@jonathanaust8688]

Namco did a RPG thing in point blank. The random battles were levels from the arcade version. You used the gun to move around the map you just shot where you wanted them to walk to

[@worsel555]

I can tell you what Back To The Future III could not decide to be: a good game.

[@Drinkabeerandplayagameofficial]

Shadows of the Empire could be good for this...you have racing, platforming, space battles, etc

[@LegendarySuperMario]

Literally my brother yelled YEAH out of context upstairs when I got the notification to get over here! YEAH IS RIGHT.

[@marakarthegreat]

Good to see you again Moka 👍

[@LegendarySuperMario]

@Maruko Chan 99 Likewise!

[@zorochii]

Spore. It starts off as you controlling a creature, then it's an strategy game, then when you start to understand that they ditch it and throw you a different kind of strategy game. Then space, where you can't even see your creature. Also Evoland, which sticks to RPGs and I understand the concept but still it's kind of weird. And finally, the first Act Raiser. Action platformer plus real-time strategy.

[@Xeo7]

A good recent example of Nier: Automata. Shoot 'em up, 3D action brawler, bullet hell, RPG. Lot of stuff going on in that one.

[@rojovision]

With the exception of the super zoomed in view in the exploration stages, that Sigma Star game looks awesome.

[@MrBacchus18]

Love these Game Sack episodes, hope you guys keep doing it for a long time.

[@doctorhandsome]

I see the focus was more on games that combined two genres than games that changed it up every level like Battletoads or Earthworm Jim. Good call, IMO.

[@sollanorabelobraga7592]

Youalways make my Sundays better. And since this is a specially crappy one, thanks a lot guys. I appreciate it.

[@schtive81]

Earthworm Jim 2 is another good candidate for this category. It's all over the place, as far as game design goes. Same with a little game called MDK2 on the Dreamcast. Which was jumped between 3 or 4 different genres all throughout the game.

[@TheRicFactor]

I don't know if you would count it as a true hybrid game, but I am a huge fan of The Goonies II on NES. Most of it was really fun platforming action, but then it would switch to a first person view with typical commands like GO, PUNCH, TOOL, and the like. The first person exploration I thought was really fun because you would find items you could use in those sections like ladders and keys, plus you could find different weapons and armor like a boomerang or a helmet. I still play The Goonies II at least once a year and enjoy it just as much as ever.

[@thedugal1373]

Don't hear people talk about that game often! I have some nostalgia for it, but I never could go far in the game since I couldn't read back when I played it! Will have to go back to it now that you reminded me of it!

[@PikaLink91]

My favorite hyrbid game, based on one of my favorite cartoons, is Tintin in Tibet. First stage is a multi layered side scroller, next level is a swim stage, next is a side scroller this time where you run back and forth doing errands, next you are in a hotel going up and down the floors to talk to different people etc. Sometimes you have your straight forward side scrolling stage, but these are only about 1/4th of the game. One level has you autorun down a slope while avoiding obstacles, and another has you scaling a mountain side where you need to keep your stamina in mind. And the sequel, Tintin and the Temple of the Sun has even more variety, with one level having you traverse by kanoo while fighting aligators, one level has you riding the claws of a condor down a mountain while avoiding everything from falling rocks to cliffside branches, and yet another level has you run towards the screen running away from an avalanche. The Tintin games are, in my book, the kings of gameplay variety. I still prefer the less technically advanced GameBoy Colour versions, as in the SNES versions they have stuck a little bit too close to the original comic artstyle, so interactable objects and platforms can sometimes be hard to distinguish from those that are just part of the background.

[@muhanc.a.9299]

I liked this episode so much but allow me to bring another player to the table as the pinacle of the games that can't decide what they want to be.... yeah…. you guessed it right I'm talking about GreenDog!

[@MrEdenbeast666]

for me is the game with the most variety "robin hood: prince of thieves" (NES) nad i love this game...

[@evank1246]

I'm glad they mentioned blaster master zero. Zero 2 was also excellent, with new gameplay mechanics, and story.

[@themblan]

My problem with the overhead sections of Thunder Force 2 is that the ground-based attacks have an extremely short range, and thus I am constantly having to move back and forth to hit ground-based targets, in addition to dealing with all the projectiles. Being able to adjust the speed would be great.

[@Aboveup]

The Guardian Legend is one of those games I booted up once to see what it even was and wanted to come back to at a later date. Maybe that later date is now.

[@Dj.D25]

Vice: Project Doom on Nes is a great game with side scrolling platforming (and even cut-scenes) similar to the Ninja Gaiden games, but also has overhead driving stages and shooting range style stages.

My wife and I have watched your show every other Saturday night for nearly half a decade now. It makes me look forward to non-payday weekends. I'm sure you're familiar with the Golgo 13 games on NES. They combined side scrolling action, horizontal shooters, first person shooters, swimming and racing.

[@thesouz18]

I'd also throw in basically any of the James Bond games as most of them had some combination of first/third person shooting, rail shooting, combat driving, skiing, etc.

[@bizarroman69]

Giant Citizen Kabuto: Its a 3rd person shooter, plus a sim city type contruction game and a game racer and a Kaiju destruction simulator, all in one game (not joking). Use it in the next episode! Regards from Argentina

[@QualityApeMan]

I quite like Urban Strike as a multi-genre game. It has the isometric helicopter shooting levels but then does a bit of a Blaster Master and you land your helicopter to do run-and-gun stages too.

[@redjed100]

I’d personally prefer that you called the episode “Games That Contain Multiple Established Gameplay Genres,” because many of the games depicted DO know what they want to be, and that’s a multigenre game. When I think of games that don’t know what they want to be, I think of multigenre games that have one or more of their genres undercooked.

[@JetWolfEX]

It's always really cool seeing that some game devs like gamehut have their own KZbin channel and basically make behind the scenes videos, I enjoy his stuff, the way they used hardware is fascinating.

[@Shrapnel82]

SNES Batman Returns springs to mind. It's mainly a 2.5D brawler, like Final Fight, but with side scrolling action/platform stages. Plenty of games have different modes for a stage or two, but Batman Returns had these almost as much as the brawler stages, with a boss stage being in the style. There was also 3rd person driving/shooting. I'd also count the Super Star Wars games, as they were mainly 2D shooters, with flight stages sprinkled throughout. Shadows Of The Empire also carried this, with a...sorta 1st person shooter, sorta 3rd person shooter main game, and several vehicle stages.

[@RemyLabue]

Was disappointed when Omikron: Nomad Soul didn't make the list. 3rd person adventure, 1v1 fighting, and 1st person shooter. Not a popular opinion but one of my favorite games of all time. Play the PC version, not console. If you're a fan of Bowie, you need this in your life.

[@thepickles8833]

Anything to avoid Omikron. You can not open your inventory to heal yourself when you’re thrown into Fighting Mode or Shooting Mode. You have so many guns and yet Fighting Mode doesn’t let you use them if you’re low on health or you simply don’t want to fight them. The game’s ambitious yes, but further cement that David Cage doesn’t understand or respect player rationality in game design.

[@SuperLlama42]

I couldn't stand Omikron. David Cage wanted to make every genre of game at once but couldn't do any of them even halfway decently.

It actually is kind of impressive for the machine. It can't remember that enemies that are barely off the screen are dead, but it can ralways emember where SOPHIA is.
