Indiana Jones and The Great Circle. Best Licensed Game Ever. Period.

[@MrTheKurgan]

Great review, thanks very much. This is exatly what I wanted to see. Those little extended scenes without spoiling the story, so good!

[@ScottyGG]

@@MrTheKurgan Glad you enjoyed and thanks for the comment. :)

[@ashleighwillis8564]

Once you get to Gizeh, the game just opens up and becomes otherworldy in its storytelling. Like a natural continuation of the original movies, it fits in seamlessly as if directed by Spielberg himself. They utterly nailed it. Bringing in science fiction but using it tastefully and sparingly to elevate the biblical aspects of the story. Keeping in line with the original feel of those original movies. I have this just, and I mean just, behind Silent Hill 2 for game of the year.

[@ScottyGG]

You should be making these videos. :) Great thoughts, thank you.

[@nguyenhaiong7209]

Such underrated review.

[@BenHeckHacks]

It's a fantastic game but you need to get 2-3 hours in before you really start to realize why. It's just so DEEP. And it captures Indy perfectly, not just the character but the tone of the movies (like when he's feeding the snake in the background while 2 other character talk) The ending fight was kind of a let down, difficulty ramped too much and the part where you're hanging seemed just random. Still, every Indy fan should buy this!

[@ScottyGG]

@@BenHeckHacks you're not going to believe me, in the same way I can't believe you posted here, but I sub to you! You're awesome. Ben rambles about Terminator while fixing acid damage,,,, lmao, so good. I appreciate you taking the time to comment as yourself. Means a lot.

Im 46, I love the game.... ive been waiting for something like this for years...

I suspect you'll 'get' my videos. We're in the same place in life. Thanks for taking time to write.

My game of the last 5 years. I love Indiana Jones…I had posters on my wall growing up and the original trilogy on VHS. I was so excited for this and they did EVERYTHING right. I haven’t had this much fun with a game in years.

[@LucasBNagy]

Awesome stuff, I liked your points and script, along with the editing. Very entertaining Great video, enjoyed it!

[@ScottyGG]

Very much appreciated! Good luck in your KZbin adventure as well!

[@LucasBNagy]

Thank you so much!

[@leeware2117]

You summed it up perfectly...."It's Effffffing Great"

[@VanGohman]

Fantastic game that truly captures Indy in his prime. Still, I appreciated the last two films. Sure he's old, sure it's not that same feeling of the original three, but I thought it was an honest way to wrap up Indiana's life. Now with this game, and the already green-lit sequels, we can bask in Indy's prime in perpetuity.

[@ScottyGG]

@@VanGohman thanks for taking time to write bud! I should go back and watch Dial of Destiny again, maybe I'd reconsider. Have a good new year man and hope to see you again.

[@VanGohman]

@@RalfPinkaire-f7w That was the rumor, but when I saw it, turned out it wasn't woke at all.

[@bodacious117]

This game is amazing

[@ScottyGG]

@@bodacious117 it is! I appreciate you taking time to write. Happy New Year!

[@yeruschmift8422]

I haven't watched the films actually. But one day, around 2006, I just stumbled upon a CD-R that my dad had burned, thinking he had downloaded a new Indiana film and probably discarded. What I found on the disc was the 2003 Indiana game. It was like finding a lost artifact of the ancient. At first I didn't expect anything good, but ultimately loved it and still remember it more than any Uncharted or Tomb Raider. The new game is somewhat similar. You don't expect a whole lot from it, but it ends up being actually special.

[@ScottyGG]

@@yeruschmift8422 awww, he was once just like you. :). Thnx for the story .

[@LoopyChew]

I would say that Fate of Atlantis did a great job replicating the Indy spirit as well. But this game does its level best to outright replicate the cinematography of the films in its cutscenes, and it’s almost what we were promised when we were told about “Interactive Movies” back in the days of CD-ROM.

[@ScottyGG]

Thanks for the thoughts. You're going deep on that one! Never got to play it but you're making me wish I did.

[@danielstudart2062]

Loved playing it so much!

[@ScottyGG]

@@danielstudart2062 glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for taking time to write.

[@kevinderrek]

Great video! Btw do you play with HDR on?

[@The_Courier55]

Wonderful editing for such a small channel!

[@ScottyGG]

@@The_Courier55 that means a lot, thank you. :)

[@yeruschmift8422]

Popularity is not the thing that speaks of quality.

[@rayj5059]

Best game that I have played so far no doubt. And even better if you play it right by not RUSHING to the storyline. Doing side missions, collecting items, and upgrading your skills will make the game even more fun.

[@TheVaivoda]

You have put in words absolutely everithing I think about it. It's an awesome great game. And I think the key is humor. The game is hilarious, but right to the level as the films are. Loved it. Thanks for the video

[@tyb6770]

Had a smile on my face my whole play through.

[@Michaelth55]

3:19 I think the only one in the modern era that you would consider is Henry Cavill with Superman and the Witcher although they were already established characters and it’s not really the same level definitely worth a mention.

[@ScottyGG]

Solid mention, big fan and you nailed all the things I think mentioning his name. I also thought about Keanu Reeves, Matrix and John Wick.

[@Boss-gk1ym]

Awesome review man. This game absolutely nailed everything Indy. Amazing, amazing game overall. I don't think I've enjoyed this level of first person gameplay since Chronicles of Riddick.

[@ScottyGG]

I freaking love the Riddick franchise, sooo much potential. That's a game/brand they should make more for, and maybe the success of this Indy game will give it a better chance.

[@MichaelLewis-sg4hx]

Great video man...i was concerned about 1st person but it works for the best

[@ScottyGG]

Thank you and agreed! Thnx for writing.

[@RetroniOS]

The real GOTY of 2024.

[@Hammersplat-the1]

It was good but not great. Very true to Indiana Jones and Raiders which was awesome. However, it had its issues. Great maybe compared to the garbage of a lot of the AAA titles coming out today, but not great. Enjoyable and entertaining but not like I couldn't put the controller down. A great game is one I don't want to walk away from.

[@ScottyGG]

@@Hammersplat-the1 That's fair. Thanks for your thoughts, much appreciated.

[@ct592]

Other good games that capture the vibe of the source material: RoboCop: Rogue City, Terminator: Resistance

[@ScottyGG]

Thanks for the suggestions, I've heard good things about both and almost, almost bought each a few times. I'll have to give them a shot.

[@kendrickstarr]

You gotta learn how to box. I rarely use guns. Also turn combat to hard. Game gets real. This game was great.

[@norwegianblue2017]

Isn't Uncharted pretty close? Just different era.

[@ScottyGG]

@@norwegianblue2017 yeah, Uncharted games were great, I'm just partial to Indy because of the emotional connection.

[@Jaytee.]

It was good... Until the end. 😔

[@adrienned7440]

[@Antsa-qh3tr]

The boss fight was easily the worst part along with snake parkour. Otherwise 10/10 will now go back to do sidequests

[@ScottyGG]

@Antsa-qh3tr lmao, that blind boss was real bad no doubt, the snake parkour gave me vertigo, but I did kind of enjoy the karate fight.

[@patrick924]

Was a great game, finished it 100% yesterday within 41 hours. But not worth the 70 bucks.

[@ManofSteel4889]

About….what $1.71/hr? Me personally its included in my subscription so it felt worth it for me.

[@ScottyGG]

@@patrick924 Patrick, I feel ya, but look at it like this. If the industry says games are $70 now, this is one Im cool spending that money on. 40 hours of fun, bug free, feature rich, cutting edge tech, incredible performances and art, great story, no stupid monetization and all that. But I feel ya, to each their own, thnx for writing.

That makes absolutely no sense.. gamers these days are so spoiled.. I bet you want every game to be free also
