Life of Black Tiger Review

[@coachrenaldo]

The trailer for this game was put onto the official PlayStation KZbin channel... Let that thought sink in...

[@Darklordjadow1]

Yes, I am aware. They not only let it onto the store, they looked at it and said "yup; we should advertise this!"

[@a.q.2330]

@@Darklordjadow1 lmao in the trailer they also used a song without even giving credit to the creator

[@Real1Gaming]

"The rhino has a tree lodged in its back" I lol'd, and then I subscribed.

[@SuperPlusher94]

I'm a bit sad that Sony is allowing crap like this on the Playstation Store. It was bad enough when Steam and the Nintendo EShop was affected with this crap.

[@DonutSwordsman]

Dude, I love the style you in these videos, it reminds me of the chill and casual feel that James Rolph has now, but has the depth of critiques like Matt mitosis/Zaric Zhakaron. Keep up the good work, it's always awesome to see you in my feed.

[@elin111]

The Digital Homicide school of design needs to happen. And put a giant "So you know WHAT NOT TO DO!!!" sign on the entrance.

[@AmishParadise27]

I don't remember Shere Khan from the live-action Jungle Book movie being this pathetic.

[@Diamhea]

Spoony ain't coming back. The fact that he is still milking his fanbase for ~$1k a month despite no new content for MONTHS has killed off what little work ethic he had left.

[@Darklordjadow1]

I don't think he's intentionally gone forever, but I think his work ethic has gone seriously downhill.

[@shawklan27]

Diamhea true

[@Diamhea]

If he comes back I'd be shocked, but really, there is no way him and his girlfriend are affording to live in their new house on his current Patreon money alone. I think he has a real job now.

[@svarog8298]

I instantly connected the thing about the tiger in Beastmaster being painted and dying to Spoony before you mentioned him. My favorite reviewer on the internet by far. There's still this spark of hope in me that some day he will return. I believe his work has influenced your style of reviewing :)

[@TheReaperofHades]

Incorrect. It looks like a Magnavox oddysee game

[@khafail6902]

@Foaad Hisham lol this game would have blown people's minds apart if it was released during the NES era. Looks like a PS1 game

[@qinlongfei]

Why do I have this sudden fear that Digital Homicide may find a new lease on life with Playstation 4

[@Darklordjadow1]

I, uh... oh shit; I had not thought of that.

[@qinlongfei]

I just hope I didn't jinx it. On the other hand, if Digital Homicide returns at least we'll see more glorious quality content from Jim Fucking Sterling Son. With all the recent negativity, let's try to focus on something positive for a change.

[@Decider0916]

Speaking of Digital Homicide, I just saw SidAlpha's video on their lawsuit against Jim Sterling. In short: It's finally over and done with.

[@Khenfu_Cake]

Christopher Rollins Jim Sterling also finally spoke about DigiHom and the lawsuit in his latest Jimquisition. An almost 40 min. long video where he is basically (and rightfully so) wiping the floor with those asshats. It's glorious:)

[@Darklordjadow1]

Thank you very much!

[@shnick1990]

As an answer for why the PlayStation Store lost its quality control, perhaps Sony's just looking for more cheap indie games to offer as free PS Plus games...

[@BurningAzure]

I got the Uncharted Nathan Drake Collection (the first THREE Uncharted games) for FREE during Play at Home. And that program since put Ratchet and Clank up for offer and Horizon Zero Dawn is next.

[@shawnwilliams4296]

Your reviews are so darn funny and I love it when you make funny quips in between scenes of gameplay! I really loved your reviews on the Batman Dark Tomorrow and Batman Vengeance titles which were the first two I've seen you do when I just gotten to know your KZbin channel. Keep up the good work with these reviews! By the way, the review you did of this wretched game "Life of Black Tiger" was an obvious one, especially if it is even remotely seen as an actual game!

[@shawnwilliams4296]

I am so glad you finally did a review on this game! As a matter of fact, I was waiting for you to review this title and I already knew that you would review it, because of its low quality production and the fact that it slipped into the Playstation Store with the permission from Playstation!

[@Calhounlaw12]

Man this is my new favourite video games channel ..thanks for all your uploads..

[@shawnwilliams4296]

I love your reviews! I especially wanted to see how much you would put into the review of this glitchy game that made its way on the Playstation store! I definitely saw this review coming! ;)

[@ryanhutchinson4467]

I find it odd how the game just kills off it's main character, and there's no impact on anything else in the story. He didn't sacrifice himself or anything like Starkiller in the force unleashed, he just.. dies.

[@Darklordjadow1]

Exactly. He just dies for no rhyme or reason and nothing is accomplished; the end.

[@Galactipod]

They also made Wolf Online, which I kinda liked.

0:24 "And I'm looking for a copy of Godzilla that doesn't cost $30!" And then it shot up to over $100 by the time you reviewed it and seems to be sitting around $200 to $300 at the time of this writing. Least you took it out from the library for nothing once the review was made. Both a blessing and a curse at the same time.

[@Ida6Leter]

You should play Yandere Simulator. The unholy glitchy mess would fit right in your channel.

[@stalectos]

it was my understanding that game was still in development and actively being updated. i don't think jadow has reviewed any not full release games that are still receiving updates. granted i could be wrong havent actually checked.

[@elin111]

Good thing Rolfe is still making AVGN episodes. He did say he's slowing them down though

[@OblivionOtaku]

Moral of the story: all people who requested this trash will have a tiger as a girlfriend, while Jadow laughs at you all with his cute girlfriend.

[@Darklordjadow1]

I'll take that as the moral; it's better than anything the game itself has to offer.

[@crazytankxd5758]

[@BurningAzure]

Persona 5 Royal, Horizon Zero Dawn, Genshin Impact, Ratchet and Clank (PS4), Uncharted 4, God of War, Insomniac's Spider Man, Spider Man Miles Morales (also on PS5).

[@BurningAzure]

Hell, the PS4 even has better indie games than this shit. No Straight Roads is a good example.

[@munchmandrifta]

[@Takimeko]

I actually went and bought the first Skylight Freerange game since it's on PS4, too. The dev also made this really, really janky-looking sidescrolling action game called Dragooned. Not only is Skylight Freerange really cheap-looking, and overwritten as hell, but the combat is outright broken. You can die so easily due to running out of ammo for your guns, and once you're locked into combat with an enemy you cannot leave. You have to sometimes let them curbstomp you until you game over. There is a basic stealth system that can be really useful, but sometimes they plop you down in large rooms filled to the brim with enemies while you can only bring 4 (either that or 5) party members at a time. No random encounters to grind on, either, so levelling up in order to progress with the game is stupidly hard. It's like if MDickie tried to make an RPG but without any of the charm of his games.

[@dustinj918]

It's amazing how the worst games make the best reviews. Who in their right mind looked at this game and said "yes, this must be on the PS4 immediately"? This looks like something that was shat out on Steam in under 3 days. Actually, no, not three days. This looks like it was shat out during a lunch break.

[@albertarias8233]

Dustin Jackson it's probably because the worst games show how fun it is to exploit (out of bounds, beating hard enemies anticlimatically, etc.) and exposes hacks like BMC studio, DH, etc.

[@cursedhawkins1305]

So, this is the Black Tiger game Angry Joe talked about so much when it came to any news story related to Sony, I can see why it's bad because holy shit. Edit: and the game couldn't even call Boars what they are! "Wild Pigs" do not exist, if you see a pig with tusks like that, it's what we call a Boar even when they are tamed, they are still called Boars and Boars are one of the most dangerous animals on the planet, next to more commonly known animals, but a Boar of that size would instantly kill ANYTHING that crosses its path because all it would need to do is plunge one of both of those tusks into whatever it's targeting to cause enough damage that not only would the impact likely result in several broken bones and some internal bleeding, the tusks would punch holes through the damn body.

[@AmishParadise27]

It's interesting. Watching Jadow's reviews have given me legitimately good ideas for potential future video games that I would like to make. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to make them (and even put his name in the "Special Thanks" or something).

[@Darklordjadow1]

Happy to be of assistance. Somebody already made an improved version of Decimation of Olarath after seeing my review of it.

[@cody2819]

Huh, you know if this game had a better writer that twist with the human could had been bloody awesome! But, it wasn't. I mean can you just imagine this story being written by a master of thriller and suspense? WHY did it have to be wasted on such an terrible never to be remembered game..? Such an waste of what could had been an great twist to the story. I Am Legend had a similar thing, tho I won't spoiler what even tho it was removed from the final film.

[@shnick1990]

I don't know if you're interested in this sort of thing, but I always wanted a remake of a certain fighting game to happen. Hokuto no Ken by Arc System Works, to be exact. You know what? I don't even know why I'm telling you this. Guess the pure boredom of watching that real-time fight halfway through the video just made me think of it. lol

[@Darklordjadow1]

I was hoping to avoid total boredom, but that seemed the most effective means of conveying the game's biggest problem.

[@AlexR-ATG]

Yeah...I wasn't one of those people who recommended Life of Black Tiger either. (Never heard of it until now.) Seriously, though, if you want the pure definition of "So busted it's actually amazing" then Hokuto no Ken is the game to go to. Yes, more so than Smash Bros. Melee, and more so than any Marvel Vs. Capcom title. I can give you a link to some proof if you want.

[@BlazeRhodon]

[@k.roberts8541]

Have you thought of trying the dark souls series for review? Personally I like the series but it does have a few flaws that make it a rather a decisive game for some people. Plus might quell the "Wahh kid games" crowd

[@EarthboundX]

What kinda flaws do you mean?

[@k.roberts8541]

EarthboundX First of all when I first tried it I was expecting it to play out like your base line rpg with follow the dotted line and kill that thingy and it kinda tail spinned me a bit, then I met the stats screen. The whole "git good" thing springs to mind..but a lot of people would go "fuck no". That and I admit it I did use a walk though to get through most of the second and third part, mainly to figure out where I had to go next. Also what is with the crossbow not having a manual aim? Is it just me? Im not trying to say that the game has problems it just people get turned off easily by having to do work, not giving themselves time to see the method to the madness. What makes the challenge fun

[@Darklordjadow1]

PS4 standards have definitely taken a major hit. We'll have to see if this trend continues. Utter confusion at the game's mere existence is the prevailing reaction to this game. Seems fairly appropriate.

[@trooper9249]

Sadly, Spoony's been going through a ton of health issues over the last year or so. Nothing life threatening, but it's been leaving him too physically drained to do anything more than the occasional livestream.

[@TheGoldenKing20]

What type of health issues? I knew Spoony was going through some personal shit, but I didn't think he was actually physically ill.

[@trooper9249]

Some respiratory issues that required him to get a CPAP machine a few months back. He's also had trouble sleeping due to said CPAP machine. Admittedly, I don't know the full specifics of everything he's been through, just what he's posted on his twitter account.

[@TheGoldenKing20]

Damn. You know, Noah will always hold a special place in my heart. He was the first reviewer I ever watched on KZbin, even before the AVGN. His questionable work ethic aside, you can't deny he had talent. It's just a shame he seems to have the worst fucking luck in the world. Seriously, that guy can't catch a break. At this point, I don't even care if he makes a comeback or not. I'm just really hoping I don't log on one day to find out he went down the same path as JewWario.

Wait AVGN retired?

[@shcdemolisher]

No he hasn't, he's still active, just doing other stuff on his channel.

[@Darklordjadow1]

He still does other things on the Cinemassacre channel, but the part of his Mega Man review where he talks about not running a series into the ground after it's run its course; it's pretty clear that was his way of saying "The AVGN is over aside from the occasional special."

[@Feltzer342]

Ah, but he made four other episodes after saying this, did he not? The Power Rangers episode is his latest one, made on March 23, 2017, and those weren't exactly specials, right? So... forgive me if I'm a little skeptical about James's retirement of the Nerd.

[@Darklordjadow1]

"Retire" may have been the wrong word, but he did say he was majorly slowing down the AVGN and only coming back a few times a year. I think "bringing it back every now and then" were his words. I know he'll keep doing Halloween and Christmas specials each year. And given his Power Rangers episode was timed to coincide with the new Power Rangers movie, I might classify that one as a special.

[@Feltzer342]

Fair enough of a point. So, that's four regular episodes if we're talking technicalities on an episode being a special... that's why I say I'm a little skeptical.

[@Burberrydalive]

wait...predators is a good movie?

[@ReptileViking]

I liked it. It's not as good as the first two but it's a hell of a lot better than either of the AvP movies.

[@Darklordjadow1]

I really liked it! My roommates liked it better than Predator 2; thought that one was too much like a cop movie rather than a Predator movie. Good characters, a new spin on the formula, and adds just the right amount of new lore to the series. Beats the ever-loving snot out of the AvP movies, if nothing else.

[@ReptileViking]

I actually like how much of a cop show P2 is. Much like how the first one starts as a big dumb 80s action movie and then a third of the way through the Predator shows up like, "Sup muscleheads, now you're in a horror movie!" I guess the genre switching just works for me.
