7 Videogame Sequels That Changed Setting (And Became Totally Different Games)

[@jonvanherenhuisabandonedch5277]

Great list, Rob! I think, in honor of Dan becoming an on-screen member of PS Access (I know he's been there long time), I think you should do "7 Best Characters Introduced Halfway Through A Franchise" or something along those lines =)

[@Platinumstyx]

Jon Rhys Johnston This is a great idea!

[@umont13]

Jon Rhys Johnston if love to see that

[@VluggeJapie59]

Jon Rhys Johnston great idea

[@Anouar947]

Is there news about PS5 ?

[@jrreogreugerugregreger7486]

Really great idea Jon.

[@BucketHeadJunior]

I don't even have a play station and I watch these guys daily. as always great vid.

[@shantiermadani6432]

Chidori916 im actually the opposite i have a ps4 but not an xbox but loves watching outsidexbox

[@kingquan3826]

Chidori916 I watch both

[@MsWatismyname]

I watch both too.. and I only have a pc xD

[@maloc1824]

i watch both (outsidexbox and PlayStation Access) and while I dont currently have a Ps4 I will soon

[@nightsean5193]

Same I love xbox but this channel is priceless

[@johnmills9954]

Rob is such a funny and bubbly guy, his wife would be lucky to have him

[@bishlasaga2052]

Jerry Yawning then don't watch his videos if you don't like him (rob is great)

[@bird__xyz9520]

You know he does that for the camera right, I highly doubt he is like that all of the time.

[@dangermouse4196]

Waw Newcastle. You're so worldly! Do they even speak english there?

[@johnmills9954]

are you ok? newcastle? thats no where special.

[@GlasgowMick89]

I honestly wouldn't mind if Rob did speak like that irl. I'm Glaswegian through and through (Scotland, Glasgow for anyone who's confused). Nothing wrong with his way of speaking. I find it quite refreshing.

[@dirgecry2047]

I'm surprised not to see Resident Evil 4 on the list

[@trellz17]

I expected that too.

[@grahamwade5932]

The starting comedy skit in this episode was great guys!

[@Ivotas]

Seriously Rob, please never change. I admit I'm overall a sucker for lists about video games but yours is the only one I really look forward to on a weekly basis. It's really your personality, humour aswell as the great chemistry with your mates that sets your videos appart from all the other lists on YT.[/fangasm]

[@fufufu7034]

These lists actually gives me a list of games I should be buying 😂! Makes life easier than reading reviews, reading spoilers or just plain gambling if the game I bought will be good (which is not bad if you land on a good game though).

[@noelquiromero4900]

Rob, I love and always look forward to your Friday Feature videos. They never fail to bring smiles and chuckles. I constantly wear a grin of delight throughout the video just listening to you passionately talk about video games. You are the man!

[@drakeanton2000]

Man bioshock infinite was a very interesting setting. It was like the whole world was hiding behind a mask it was kind of a happy bright feeling even though it was truly dark and intense

[@KeybladeMasterAndy]

d r a k e a n t o n 2 0 0 0 Agreed. And it's a stark contrast to the Horror-style setting already established in the series.

[@Avatar_Sokka]

Jak 2, GTA that parents were okay with.

[@gaymurpreservationchannel4988]

jak 2 is one of the best games ever made in my opinion,the challenge, the art style and the polished action platforming makes it so memorable for me.

[@juanescobarrojas8330]

Victor Sullivan The funny part was i never saw Jak 2 as diffcult. But then again i play the Soulsborne game like its a goddamn religion.

[@miguelcardona8430]

Juan Escobar Rojas souls games aren't that hard compared to bloodborne

[@juanescobarrojas8330]

Corvo Attano Bloodborne wasnt that bad though despite some select bosses...

[@miguelcardona8430]

Juan Escobar Rojas well I think it was a bit harder then other souls because in this one the shield became absolute which was pretty much the strategy for most souls games

[@maxii6254]

The only reason I watch PlayStation Access is for the Friday Features (With a view or two on some other videos) lol

[@KeybladeMasterAndy]

ToTheMaxGamerX Same.

[@erraticonteuse]

Yeah, same with Outside X-Box/Xtra too. Gimme all the list vids! I don't need reviews or Let's Plays.

[@maxii6254]

LexiDizzle Same here! LOL. I don't even have an X-Box but their content is just hilarious

[@leetleboy4998]

I love the charming production value of these videos. Keep it up guys! Also, how about RE4? That game smoothly pioneered the third person, over-the-shoulder shooter and strayed far from zombies and cities with raccoons.

[@PlayStationAccess]

+leetle boy A very good shout with Resi 4! And I'm loving the diplomatic use of the word 'charming' -Rob

[@SushantThapaliya]

He is right though. Dr. Pepper tastes like cough medicine at room temperature.

[@miguelcardona8430]

サパリーヤスシャント I like cough medicine

[@rogerwho5012]

Tolyngee serious i always thought it tasted like vanilla

[@xandertrejo]

i think that is because soda used to be medicine when it was first invented

[@Crit-Chance]

I haven't had Dr. Pepper in over two years, so don't quote me on this but... doesn't it taste like medicine _regardless_ of temperature...?

[@PredaConvoy]

could be worse, could be root beer. that stuff tastes exactly like TCP.

[@tylersmall637]

Loving the longer sketches! Been a dedicated viewer for a bit more than a year now and the quality in these is still really rising, keep it up!

[@BeFreeBeUnlimited]

Its not exactly a sequel but I remember how excited I was about Final Fantasy X and the fact that it involved spoken dialogue which was something unheard of in previous Final Fantasys

[@KeybladeMasterAndy]

Simon Tobin Also not quite a setting change.

[@PenguinAlex94]

Final Fantasy XV's setting really changed the series by making a world map with a bigger scale and explorative factor. Shame we only got to really explore the one continent though. Great vid as always Rob!

[@banishedpotato2268]

Alex Advani I really expected FFXV to be on the list. I thought the change was huge from any Final Fantasy I'd seen before.

[@AsterSea]

I just realized that you guys need to change the ending template of the video to include Dan. It's an outright travesty that the hand puppet takes priority over the newly employed human.

[@Platinumstyx]

AsterSea Badger hand puppets are people too... sorta.

[@Astfgl]

I think we may have just solved the mystery of who controlled the hand puppet all this time.

[@AsterSea]

+Astfgly The only mystery left now is to figure out who plays Rob's mom.

[@futoijosei]

Is he a puppet, or is he a man's hand? Who knows?

[@-Guts886]

AsterSea dave plays Robs mom....OR..maybe dave is in fact his mom..hmm

[@Animeniac00]

Excellent video Rob, I greatly enjoyed this one! The especially liked how you make the connection between the first and the last entry, and then mentioned how it has changed gaming since. Thanks a lot, see you next week. :D

[@markmclean9640]

There's this obscure little Japanese series that changes with every entry. You've probably never heard of it, but it rhymes with Binal Bantasy.....

[@rink9815]

mark mclean I cracked up at your comment.

[@randyowen86]

mark mclean they're designed to have standalone stories in each game, there are rarely any direct sequels

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

I think you mean Vinyl Vain-I-See

[@brookiecookie472]

Nurin Tajul linal lantasy

[@---------------10]

is it some weird porno or something

[@ooobbwolfooo]

I don't know just how much it shook up the culture of gaming, but for me, the transition between the 1st Prince of Persia and the 2nd was VERY gritty and jarring! In the end, I really ended up enjoying it, but initially, it really was quite an unsettling shift. Also, I agree with others: you guys (and gal) really put up great content and Rob you are an unquestionable powerhouse of wit and a naturally engaging personality in front of the camera! Thank you!!!

[@videogameplayer1557]

Haha aww the room temperature Dr. Pepper 🤣😆🤣

[@Mogsters]

Black Flag was just brilliant

[@ninjahack11]

Damn BRILLIANT

[@davidmuzzall375]

Soooo was that a dramatisation of what really happened and Dave just came up with a great idea, or did you just wrote heroic Dave into your script??

[@shadow3675]

Muz Entertainment knowing Rob probably the latter.

[@burningace4852]

Gotta say the writing in this episode is extremely good and well done. Very thoughtful

[@timallanmusic]

These lists are always sooo strangely accurate with my everyday life. How did you know 10 year old me was always playing Gta 1 as a kid because my older brother had it and we just loved running around being bad. Literally, I had Gta and the crash bandicoot series.. Those were essentially the only games I could play as a 10 year old. Parent logic... Well to be fair they never knew I was playing GTA now that I think about it.

I'm just gonna say I lost the game, not only because I just did, but so I can remind all of you about it and make you all lose, and so I can be sent reply emails forcing me to keep losing.

Disclaimer: Bioshock Infinite was not actually this astonishing.

[@goldengamegod1439]

Lol

[@omelfilip]

Portal 2 had many shifts of setting/environment while playing through the game, from the run down vegetation covered test chambers, to the pretty all built chambers, to the behind the scenes of the lab, to the abandoned underground, back up to the now broken new lab, this game is amazing really.

[@daksh8747]

I was 302nd damnit

[@bdgilliam7610]

Still coming back to binge watch these videos from time to time. Probably will forever. lol

[@mathewm6294]

Thank you for showing love to GTA 3, the game that kick started my love of modern gaming. Sure, I've beena gamer since the NES days when my dad bought my sister and I the NES bundle that had the Running Pad for Track and Field, the Duck Hunt gun, and of course Super Mario Bros. And that love carried on through to the Sega Genesis and original PlayStation, but somewhere after RE 3 Nemisis I lost interest in gaming. Even after the PS2 released I still wasn't interested in getting that system...until GTA 3 came out. Then MSG 2 released too and I was suddenly all about gaming again. I got GTA 3 and Max Payne along with my first PS2 and I haven't looked back since.

[@Rodrigo.Gui_R]

Access, u need to start doing 2 Features a week cuz during the week I'm always watching the old ones!

There aren't many things that are as funny as grown men acting like little kids. The "like medicine" bit had me in stitches! Well done, sir.

[@caiomiatello2595]

Ooooh c'mon guys! You could have easily mentioned the final fantasy series. The change of turn based combat to the action type and the graphic evolution was really mind blowing as the years went by. It just changed so many times!

Keep up the great work PlayStation Access.

[@bella_iris]

Driver turned into the Watchdogs series. I don't know if this would count as a sequel to you but if you do, going from being a playable car to a huge open world human character with abilities to hack the streets and people's phones is pretty massive.

Fantastic that Rob addressed the metal gear tally complaints :D

[@maynardhuynh5054]

Hahaha Gotta love Rob's bluntness and sarcasm. Awesome video. I reckon Final Fantasy 15 could be on this list. Also, are you a Dr. Pepper Fan or Cherry Coke? LoL I think both are great!!!

[@AhJong0]

So pleased to see Delsin made the trip!

[@Connor_Tyler]

I was so shocked when I played Jak 2 for the first time. It was way back when we had a video store, and I rented it after finishing Jak and Daxter. It had a generic, white case with the store logo on it, so I had no idea what the game was like, since I couldn't read the back of the box. I was dumbfounded.

[@SoftBank47]

That Dr. Pepper bit killed me. It's funny because not only is it true, the Dr. Pepper that made me like it was at room temp.

[@dionysuskiss1]

That Dr. Pepper bit, reminded me of Hot Dr. Pepper. I haven't had any in ages. It's wonderful. Served in a mug with a thin slice of lemon, it takes like a cider, or a type of Hot toddy.

[@barewheels5730]

I say Need for Speed Underground is arguably an example. I say arguably because maybe some people prefer the old style of supercars in picturisque locations, but you cannot deny that Underground was a hit and a fan favorite.

[@devastatheseeker9967]

final fantasy should be here and I'm surprised it isn't because of the love this channel has for it. it used to be a straight up classic fantasy game and then it went industrial and then sci fi.

[@matthewoates9863]

While my love for both you rob and the rest of the crew is unending, are we really going to brush over the fact that the words sea man really came out of your mouth without laughing

Can't think of a bigger shift than Fallout 3 in the Capital Wasteland - not only a whole new sprawling environment but also a 1st person, non-turn based masterpiece!

[@bella_iris]

It's not the second in the series, but the reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise with the fresher just named "Tomb Raider" for PS3 was the most glorious new/different/sequel I've seen in years.

[@EyePlay2]

Does anyone know the soundtrack in the background when Rob was talking about Bioshock?

[@djordjemiljkovic1563]

Hey is that Soul of Cinder next to Altair on the shelf? I'm curious.

[@barrydingall]

It's funny how it comes full circle. Now Rockstar just announced they're going back to top-down for their next racing DLC for GTAV.

[@wariodude128]

I nominate Darksiders 2 as a sequel that changed setting. Not only did you play as a different character from the first one, but they added RPG elements, pieces of equipment that you could switch out for better ones and a much larger open world to the game as well. Not to mention the DLC areas that made the game even longer than before.

[@maloc1824]

What are the blue, purple, and yellow cube type things on the shelf

[@sidneydavis3854]

Yaaay! Delson's back

[@Nootcaase]

Red Faction Guerillas shift to third person and making it open world changed Red Faction in my eyes. Gone were the days of seeing just how deeply you could tunnel in the land scale, but also every part of every building could be ripped apart.
