LGR - H.U.R.L. - DOS PC Game Review

A disgusting DOOM clone that swaps blood & gore for farts & garbage... just charming! Locate the world's stolen panties in this review of:

Played on a 486-66.
The goal of these videos is to see how quick I can crank out a review after a long day at work, with about one minute reviews based on a game or theme of games (this one is a single game, HURL, for the MS-DOS OS).

I remember playing this when I was a kid and it really creeped me out. On the first level, I entered a room with two distant entrances and was followed by a duck. I ran inside and away from the door, glitching the duck into the door. So, while looking at said duck, I moved backwards and FWOOOP the door behind me opened which opened the other door, letting the duck free. I immediately tried to exit the game, while I could see the duck moving towards me. It was terrifying. Awesome videos, btw.

[@TheEarthbounder]

I have to admit. When I saw this video back in 2010, I instantly subscribed to this channel. Your humor and love for the classic PC games brought me to find my favorite series on the system. From your humble beginnings, I'm glad to see your show improve as the years go on. Thanks for the enjoyable experience and keep on rolling with your (Not so) Lazy Game Reviews.

[@LGR]

I'm glad you've stuck around for so long!

[@MaoRatto]

+Lazy Game Reviews Oh so, this is Duke Nukem 3D For kids?

[@doomworship4995]

it is a sin of epic proportions that I just found this channel in 2018! for an old school PC gamer like me, this is the best content on the internet! Thank you. now I have so much back content to get caught up on!

[@ProtoMario]

Fallout has toilets that restore health also =D

[@hdoug9325]

I played this all the time when I was a wee lass and I couldn't remember the name, THANK YOU FOR YOU

[@StarfighterJohansson]

”it is summertime and that means... nothing” had me laughing well over a minute. Lord have mercy.

[@angelived]

I'd love to help but I've got to stay here and shampoo my kangaroo......well I know what my new excuse is

[@Gem145Producciones]

"It is the summer time and that means... nothing" those intros are so nostalgic, fam. I can also identify with that kind of lifestyle, i dont know why i should have fond memories over sitting to play on an old computer with food besides me like some nerd, but i do. I have been following your stuff since i found the depth dwellers review and let me say that you are one of the few people that truly do justice to PC gaming back in the day and even today, your videos have slowly but surely gone from top to god tier, and it has been a truly enjoyable ride from the start to this point, keep up with the good work, man! Also adlib, i also love it. Specially the Tyrian soundtrack.

[@justmechanicthings]

The thrown eggs have faces on them, how horrifying

[@supajasiu]

I don't know what that kangaroo was smokeing, but I want some.

[@FedorovAvtomat]

Looks more like, "Please keep this guy from showering me, he does... things to me"

[@bobbyberetta4206]

In a little more than 3yrs it will be a decade since this episode, I love the fact that even as of today your reviews are the best out there and haven't sold out (joking of course). I wish you & Kim all the best for the future and I Thank You for LGR!

[@LaguzzA]

For some reason, I my brain just reminded me of this video, but had forgotten any name attached to it. Thank goodness for the "sort by oldest" function on youtube, it's fun to revisit these videos!

[@ELUNO119]

I had the demo for this game! It was for the first level only and I loved replaying it over and over.

[@WakkoKakko]

I hated this game so much as a kid (1995-96) that I eventually broke the CD for it. Now, I'm giving it another chance, after going out of my way to re-learn the name by looking up all of the first-person shooters from that era.

[@yellowblanka6058]

Naw, it's still crap. It could have been a decent game if it wasn't so buggy and broken.

[@WakkoKakko]

@@yellowblanka6058 You’re not wrong, I quickly lost interest after a day or two. Controls were way too fluid as to be unmaneuverable.

[@yellowblanka6058]

@@WakkoKakko The fact that maybe 1/4th (I'm probably being generous) of your hits actually register - and if land another hit while a hit animation is playing out the second hit won't register, doesn't help things either. Whatever QA/programmer who thought this was fit to ship out should have been ashamed of themselves.

[@TheMentalRelapse]

Damn that turning is giving me motion sickness.

[@TheMentalRelapse]

ralph anderson Ya thats true.

[@JamesKelly89]

For some reason I love this game too. Maybe it's just the nostalgia. I'd recommend playing it on DOSBox where you can drastically reduce the clock speed. A lot of games from this era didn't have a time based game loop.

[@RatelHBadger]

I remember a shareware version of this game attached to a "kids" magazine. When I was playing Wolfenstein and Duke Nukem my younger brother was allowed to play this.

[@BrolyTheLSS2]

This is the video that’s getting me into your channel here in July of 2021. Let’s see how far I go!

[@whitetrashog1603]

that's venetian snares and it's actually pretty awesome.

[@simplyjustjoni]

the back of the cd case makes it sound like an educational game or tree hugger game. EDIT: 3:53 Oh.

[@simplyjustjoni]

That ending montage was hillarious

[@giantsquidy3491]

The pig reminds me of Primus' Pork Soda.

[@Milesisspiffy]

have to say... ur videos are very underdoggish, very good and informative, similar to ashens ur videos are timeless and very similar from 08 to 16. u deserve many more subs also, request: do touhou pc98 even if u dont... cheers m8, keep it up, ethan great work!

[@LGR]

Thank you!

[@Milesisspiffy]

o shit instant response i have been touched by a goddess

[@SirWeirdGuy]

I'm surprised at the immediate jump in quality here. In the first review he spent half the video on awkward jokes and barely talked about the game but here in the second he's already a full fledged reviewer.

[@tonyadames873]

Played this game as a kid; loved it. The game isn't actually supposed to move like that; you probably have your clock rate way too high. I'm pretty sure the game's speed is tied to the clock rate like most other DOS games.

[@GearStrike]

This game was also featured in a book called "Amazing 3-D Games Adventure Set" which calims to use a game engine called the "ACK-3D" engine. the game also goes under the title "Slob Zone" of all things.

[@KyoshoBallard]

"This has to be one of the few trailer parks in the game, other than Postal and maybe Redneck Rampage ... " There's one in No One Lives Forever 2. The scene from the demo with the tornado and ninjas. God I love those games.

[@jasonmetcalfe4695]

I have memories of this game... and lots of motion headaches afterwards

[@kevinblack16]

Wow. It took me YEARS AND YEARS to find the name of this game. Thank you

[@randomforum]

Working toilet = Duke nukem 3D. And yes, love adlib sound!!! Memories from so many games.

[@wondeboy12]

I'm concerned as to why the kangaroo has a thousand yard stare, the horrors he must see during shampoo time...

[@Dosgamert]

7:55 Cellphone handshake haha

[@black_platypus]

7:55 Aaand here's the old-school cellphone interference sound :)

[@Trevor_NewJerusalem]

That duck was the worst jumpscare I've experienced in a long time.

[@Dreadjaws]

This is driving me crazy. I went through your video library and I was 100% sure I had watched all your reviews. But now a bunch of the old ones started popping up on my feed and, such as this one, I've never seen them before. How did I miss them?

[@ColynBowman]

I'm using a 1280x1024 flat panel and just love when I come across older reviews in 4:3.

[@lemonapocalypse414]

Still the best LGR intro.

[@Darusamon]

I know this review is super old and someone might have already mentioned this, but No One Lives Forever 2 has a really awesome trailer park level, complete with a tornado ripping through it.

[@cameronperry8582]

Happy 8 year anniversary video made by lgr

[@barowt]

This game needs a reboot

[@Pillowcase]

I'm not proud to say that I played this at some point in my childhood.

[@Flowtail]

Damn Dem production values

[@CaseyChevalier]

Dang, I remember when my dad got me this game when I was really young and I completely forgot about it until today!! Such a trip

[@kulrigalestout]

8:36 That's some impressive architecture right there!

[@SudzDude]

The timing is too fast because it was meant for the CPUs of the mid-90s. As it says on my website, if you want to play it the way it was "meant to be" you should run it from within an emulator like DOSBox.

[@kidferocious]

Somehow, I feel bad for the kids who had to play this while other kids had DOOM or Wolfenstein 3D.

[@sfrazeur]

The level design and art look awesome. The NPCs look like they are from another game.

[@kurtg5405]

I remember this game as a kid! It was off a shareware disk and our old 586 AMD with 16mb of ram didn't run it anywhere near as well, probably had about 3 FPS.

[@xClaraJaynex]

I love how they've named a game after something you'd do when you throw up xD

[@AwesomeRepix]

Oh yea! I noticed that Comanche 4! You must take a look at it some day.. I played the hell out of that!

[@crimsoneternity]

ahh you took me down memory lane. i was the same way. i didnt like the game but at the same time i couldnt stop playing it

[@smuckfuzzer]

I used to have this game when I was young and we had a 133mhz computer. I would play it again completely for nostalgia purposes. Of course if you play this game when you're 40 and you play on a modern pc it's going to suck.

[@Galaxieretter]

I remember this from way back when I was a little kid. I didn't like it too much but seeing this brought back some memories. I always wondered what the name of this game was.

[@DagothBob]

They can be "defeated" but they don't disappear, they just stop attacking you. It's a very kid-friendly game, remember.

[@funkophone]

I used to play this when I was a kid! good review.

[@Mikitanfox1]

I loved this game so much growing up, makes me happy to see it again and visit the nostalgic happy feels. [I saw my aunt playing doom and i wanted to play... my mom was unsure and got me HURL as a compromise] my uncle secretly installed doom on my pc he made for me but for a few years I still liked HURL over doom, got to play both though! fond memories of simpler times LGR

[@Vojingamer]

Your aunt played doom. Woah

[@hoodedman6579]

I can tell this was from nearly a decade ago because the intro is fucking 30 seconds long. Seriously, why was that a thing that so many channels used to do?

[@MuttFitness]

They didn't understand people can skip or leave

[@supermariosunshine64]

Thanks for introducing this game, I will have an illicit substance-full fun time with it.

[@0raffie0]

Were you recording your voice on Type 1 cassette tape here, Clint? If so, might I suggest Dolby noise reduction or perhaps even just Chrome Type II cassettes? ;)

[@drizzyrauvryar6992]

Wow, I had this game as a kid but I didn't know how to open it until my cousin came over and had to show me how to use a computer

[@12me91]

This is a doom mod/clone? And here I thought it was weird when they made chexquest from the doom engine, but this takes the cake man.

[@RetroFill]

That more looks like the Wolfenstien 3D engine (to make things worse). You can tell due to a static height (including the buses).

[@rachu]

Yeah I vaguely remember it as well... I've always remembered the name but as a kid I could never play it because I just could never figure it out! And the graphics are so different from how I imagined them from all those years ago...

[@terminaldeity]

Holy shit, I remember this game. My friend had it. The deodorant is what triggered the memory for me. Can't say I remember enjoying it, though.

[@Parody42]

Weird question: but is this based on an early Build Engine? I don't know why but I just kept getting flashes of Ken's Labyrinth in my head as you played.

[@ThisIsEDX]

Plumbers don't wear ties. Ducks wear ties. Therefore, ducks are not plumbers.

[@B0nezee]

8:34 hahah trailer park boys..RIICKKKYYY

[@BIGMIKEREC]

2:01 Ayyyyyyyy push the button man PUSH DA BUTTON

[@AgentTasmania]

People responsible for horrible cartoon 'Australian' accents are very lucky Australians are collectively well humoured.

[@ideitbawxproductions1880]

damn, 12 years ago... and somehow, I only found this video today 🤦 been watching your channel for a few years now (can't remember when I first discovered it, around 2015 I think?) and I always seem to uncover something you've done that I've never seen before. how deep does the LGR rabbit hole go? 🤔 guess there's only one way to find out... just keep digging! also, am I the only one who was getting Cyberdillo vibes from this game? this at least looks coherent in comparison; Cyberdillo looks more like Hunter S Thompson threw up mid-acid trip and decided to make a game based on what he saw in his puke at the time

[@Parsec994a]

Is that a sticker or something you got from the HR GIGER museum? Do tell!

[@PhaytalError]

The graphics engine looks almost identical to the pre-Build engine that Ken Silverman made for Ken's Labyrinth.

[@twithnell]

I thought of redkneck rampage when I saw you playing this too. lol

[@hobocamptheater]

I was playing the game and I couldn't find the fire button, I pressed every button on the keyboard and nothing worked. I looked through the folder where I stored the files and the only setup I found was for sound. maybe I'll figure it out later.

[@lionocyborg6030]

6:50 Don't forget GTA Vice City Stories. That had a trailer park where one of the first bosses lived.

[@kanedaBJF]

Why is that Aussies are invariably in games just as some kind of stereotyped comic relief? Bring on Crocodile Dundee: The Game!

[@SwedishEmpire1700]

haha, i remember trying the demo for this sometime during the late 90's.

[@mspeter97]

@phreakindee the download link on your desc. containt fix images and text scenes

[@invghost]

As an Australian, I can confirm that isn't an Australian doing the voice work. It sounds like an American trying too hard.

[@ShonkyLegs]

This is like a weird prequel to "Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor"

[@THEmuteKi]

An interesting game, but do your weapons actually do anything when they DO make contact?

[@ZoneCracker]

Never played the original but played the re-release called Slob Zone 3D. It was one of those annoying yet fun games I loved as a kid. :P

[@myang12003]

This game really makes me H.U.R.L.

[@RetroGameFreakHD]

I have this game! Not the download the actual game disc, manual, and artwork that I picked up at a Salvation Army. I think we can all agree...this game was made by some tree huger on crack.

[@FedorovAvtomat]

Surprised nobody noticed this, but what kind of mobile home, or any home for that matter has sliding grocery store doors?

[@Soapmore]

@DarkArtistKaiser the tornado followed him there and messed him up

[@TheLambdaTeam]

What's the reason of phoning and using the radio transmitters? I could not find any use of them at all...

[@sagesmith1076]

I think that Australian guy is going to road the kangaroo I mean just look at it

[@DarkArtistKaiser]

O_O...at around when you first used the phone your dirt meter went up. I don't even want to know why that happened.

[@Sadwaffles]

Wouldn't mind a revisit to this

[@zesty2023]

thanks for the DL link, Im totally gonna try this Xd

[@TheDiscoMelon]

DUDE, what is that intro track

[@soniccool34films]

you don't know gross untill you've been hit with old kitty litter LOL Great Review

[@Kitties_are_pretty]

I don't know what it is about this game but it just seems so comforting and nice. It has the tone of a Christian game without all the scripture.

[@austinreed7343]

Someone made a Doom tc based on this, and then I added the Bolognese mod.

[@alphablack5520]

HEY!

[@SprocketWatchclock]

Looks like the poor man's Chex Quest.

[@DJ_BoomBear]

what game did the song at the start of your episode come from? its like dos dubstep.

[@yellowblanka6058]

I sincerely doubt anybody actually tested this game before release, the hit detection etc. is some of the worst I've ever experienced in a game. Hell, sometimes the fire button doesn't seem to work. It could have been a decent little novelty with some more Q&A - even if everything worked as intended it was never going to compete with Doom, but at least it would have been a working product.

[@CattyMintgum]

Awe, those pigs are silly.
