Mario Sunshines summer vacation vibe is really really strong. It always feels like summer, even if you play it in winter.

[@tellyg7985]

Never forget what they've taken from you.

[@ChrisDeBug91]

Sonic Adventure was always the one that sticks with me, constant nostalgia feels everytime I see it.

[@Fyrrkye]

Clearly, Sonic Adventures and Mario Sunshine were something

[@Spudtron98]

The calm Noki Bay music playing over The Silent Cartographer was... interesting.

[@TimJimBuam]

When you find a banger video with only 100 views 😎

[@mrlucius57]

this has to be one of my favorite videos ever, thank you so much for capturing all of these feelings/memories in a video like this

[@Zaybuhr]

Ty the Tasmanian tiger had a pretty good beach too on ps2

[@DrSalTree58NG]

Ship Rex is one of my favorite levels in video games ever, that whole game is amazing

[@amit_patel654]

I freaking loved Sonic Adventure for the beach level alone!

[@eneada2618]

for whatever reason there was some weird naivety / optimism to some games in this era and these beach levels capture them perfectly

[@NarokathCrimzonAE]

Put together just lovely

[@ln5321]

I miss summers

[@eriafatiny3479]

I always love the water part in any map in game. it feels fun to explore water map

[@tannerpoulis3156]

DUDE this is legitimately too sad and accurate fuck man Veniccio Beach in Dark Cloud 2 is unmatched it’s not even funny

[@Mauldrex]

Wow thanks that felt good to my soul !

[@TheLegendofLeo]

Ha, some of these games have been on my mind in anticipation of summer! I didn't expect to see the beach from MM, but boy, does it look incredible.

[@claracunico]

Lovely video! Made me want to go to the beach lol

[@shambler-wares]

okay, i see your point

[@gnardawgyt]

Agreed but why you got Halo in here XD

[@gloving4hire]

757 90s baby lets goo

[@zephyrias]

Water graphics in games are the best 😂 glad chrono cross is here ine if my fave beaches

[@jasontillerson9022]

what song is in the first 15 seconds ?!?

[@Lavkia]

Chain Dive - Track 6. You'll find it on one of those "Chain Dive full soundtrack" videos

[@brownranchman4084]

What are the songs in the background

[@TheUltimateNatural]

What soundtrack is that in the intro? The first twenty seconds.

[@Lavkia]

ChainDive - Track 06. You can find it on videos with the whole soundtrack of the game. Other videos only have the "Stage 06" theme, which is a different track entirely

[@TheUltimateNatural]

@@Lavkia This? kzbin.info/www/bejne/jma1Za2di9Gnm7c It sounds a tad bit different. When does the part in the intro play?

[@Lavkia]
