Oh yes! Frankie's pop punk impression was ON POINT! Video of the year.

[@AlexFehrTheLoneWolf]

To this day, that original Power Rangers theme is still one of the best "GO GO POWER RANGERS!" Ron Wasserman is the man!

[@reiddutchess9955]

“Go Green Ranger” and “White Ranger Tiger Power” are such iconic songs from that series

[@mr.serious9538]

I think the Jackass game for PS2 is a lot of fun. One of the minigames--they're all minigames--is called Pachinko Precipice. You throw one of the guys down a hill and wrack up as many injuries as you can by tilting the playfield left and right to gain momentum on the ragdoll. The scores are then delivered to you in dollar amounts with accompanying x-rays, ha ha. I keep coming back to that one in particular, so that's my PS2 rec for today. Love the videos.

[@DannyDeVoid]

Frankie can see why Burnout 3 is popular

[@IDHLEB]

I was just wondering if he likes to smoke weed, drink DIET soda and play Burnout Revenge for the PeeEssToo

[@RxYouth]

Hes a Big Burnout 3 Fan BTW

[@Tenfey]

But can he see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?

[@crush41gb]

Love Burnout 3! 🤘

[@lukethompson1517]

Lmao

[@TheLoneGameMan]

Playing this game solo is pretty funny because your Ranger will CONSTANTLY say things like, "Guys, can I get some help?!" and it implies the rest are just hanging off screen like, "Nahhh, you got this! Morphenominal!"

[@joshuaG_Sea]

I’ve only discovered this channel recently. Loving the videos!

[@Kryfton]

The hand blur had me dead. That's amazing!

[@ConnerNielsen6]

This video descending into pop punk impressions warms the cockles of my heart. (lol I typed this with a pop punk singing voice in my head)

[@RedCowArcade]

THE CAWKLES OF MY HAAAART

[@ConnerNielsen6]

Yesssssss!

[@roneteus]

It's Morbin time

[@AoiShoudou]

I kinda hoped to hear from the Red Ranger the sound of Big Ryan’s HIYAH

[@joeyisjustso]

The karate arcade game inside the power ranger game is the best part about it. My wife asks to play just that all the time.

[@mr.vidjagamez9896]

There needs to be a modern PR game based off the snes games by the original devs, like what occurred for Wild Guns and Ninja Warriors.

[@chalie091892]

I hooked up my PS2 to play Burnout 3 just the other day. One of the best aged games maybe ever?

[@TheParappa]

For PS2 I like some Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks, Gradius V, Rumble Roses, Parappa the Rapper 2 and Demon Stone.

[@thingsturnout]

Frankie's MMPR Rita's Rewind Review: Klanoa 2 is a good game

[@mister-x2]

Waking up extra early to rent the Power Rangers The Movie snes game before anyone else. Nothing but good memories.

[@hooptyhoop7862]

I passed up on this game. I think the only thing that I’d ever get Power Rangers is if there is some Power Rangers collections for games.

[@viraticwars]

The SNES, GBA, Sega, GG games would be awesome.

[@viraticwars]

You would need Might Morphin Sega Genesis/Sega CD/SNES/Game Gear, Mighty Morphin the Movie Genesis/SNES/Game Gear, Might Morphin the Fighting Edition, Power Rangers Zero racer. The GBA games like Wild Force, Time Force, and SPD would be cool too.

[@apolloforabetterfuture4814]

It's weird how I watched TMNT pretty frequently as a kid because it was on TV and it got a new reboot every few years but Power Rangers I never watched or even heard about. Like maybe I met one other kid who liked them but they have not translated over to gen Z much I don't think, that recent live action movie wasn't popular either and that was directly targeting the younger generation. I think kids nowadays just watch Japanese anime directly from the source and don't even bother with the Americanized version lol

[@Marisquizo11]

Have to disagree here. I'm gen Z and Power Rangers was THE cool thing that every boy was into. The toys definitely did heavy lifting. I didn't even know what TMNT was back then. This is probably a regional thing instead of a generational one.

[@MonoGrinded]

I've played a lot of PS2 the last year the best one I played was Neversoft's Gun its just got great shooting mechanics, a good story and getting upgrades as you go along is fun. I did remap all the controls and get a hd texture pack though

[@mr-century]

Blink 182, Alkaline Trio, Sum 41, good times. Where are yhiouuuuuu, and oim soh sohrhee! I would recommend GodHand, insanely in-depth game from the guy who made RE4

[@futureskeletons66669]

I used to work with the guy that did a lot of the art and animation for Shredder's Revenge. Hurrah. PS2 recommends - Contra Shattered Soldier, Gradius V and God Hand.

[@Se7enBeatleofDoom]

I am waiting for the street sharks and Biker mice from Mars to get beat ‘em up video games next. Especially street sharks. Mattel has been teasing Street Sharks getting some reboot for some time now.

[@AAWinnerMichaelCaine]

10:51 Mister Mosquito and Way of the Samurai. Both exclusives.

[@SooshieBoy]

1:45 real missed opportunity to slip in a Ryan HIYAH, also Burnout Revenge is worth checking out, basically an improved 3

[@halcyonways1476]

@6:00 There's a FREE Fan Power Rangers game that's coming out soon that look like that old saga game. It's 4 players and it looks better than Rita's Rewind. It's called Power Rangers It's Morphing Time! You can play it on those hand held things you guys have.

[@thousandyeargems4360]

Physical edition did get announced for retail, coming out late may or early june

[@Aenima308]

I liked the game gear power rangers game a lot

[@groalerable]

how many desserts can you eat if you add ice cream to all of them

[@joshtoten]

The Genesis MMPR movie game is still the best imo, just for the soundtrack alone.

[@Weird_VHS]

It’s 2025 and I’d love an open world, MMPR game where we could freely explore Angel Grove, the juice bar, the school, command centre etc. Putties randomly showing up all over the map.

[@RealJeffTidwell]

Bend Studio is available

[@Weird_VHS]

@ What’s that?

[@RealJeffTidwell]

@@Weird_VHS Makers of DAYS GONE, one of the better open world games from the past several years

[@SuperNicktendo]

Burnout 3 is the best of the series. My friend and I ripped it to the xbox and almost 100% it. Got stuck on the F1 track in Chicago. Stupid L track.

[@joshtoten]

Also if you havent tried them out already, shinobi and nightshade on PS2 are good arcadey hack and slash fun.

[@GGFTV]

Burnout 3 is awesome!

[@btr3k]

I'm just old enough to not be a fan of MMPR at all, so Rita's Revenge just kind of whooshes over my head. But if they made the same thing, but Thundercats... I think I'd be all in. Anyway, Digital Eclipse who has a series of great documentary games like Atari 50, so I know their heart was in the right place at least. They also made Cowabunga Collection, so maybe that's where the confusion is that they made Shredder's Revenge (which again, they didn't).

[@MonoGrinded]

The super nintendo power rangers game is really good. many of the reviews at the time said it was too easy but I dont think a game has to be hard to be fun.

[@syles0003]

DONT WASTE YOUWR TIME ON ME YOUWR ALREADY THE VOICE INSIDE MOI YEEEEEEEEEEAAD...

[@AlexandriaBrah]

i think your criticisms for Rita's Rewind are mostly valid, although i think for many people the criticisms wouldnt have been as harsh if the had game launched at a more fair twenty dollar price point. im unsure why this game was ever compared to Shredder's Revenge besides consumer ignorance. it was never marketed as such, is made by a different team, and production value for MMPR games has typically been lower than that of Turtles games. however, as a love letter to the original show, it really ticks all of the boxes for me. i dont think it needed some deeper, overarching story as it captures the cheesy "monster of the week" vibe of the early show almost perfectly like i hoped for. so many MMPR games go for the epic narrative so i really appreciated the simplicity of future and past Rita teaming up to take down the rangers. i enjoyed Rita's Rewind enough to 100% it and play it for almost seventeen hours, and i suspect ill return to it again for more co-op with friends too. the visual aesthetic is top notch, and i will definitely disagree on the music which i found stellar as well. the beat 'em up gameplay is very competent and satisfying, with five standard moves and a room clearing special move for each ranger. all the rangers play similarly, but also have their own feel which is noticable to a seasoned beat 'em up player. the Zord levels are very solid and enjoyable, and i enjoyed the motorcyle levels too, although the latter were quite short. im surprised you didnt touch on the boss battles which were really fun and well done. i loved rewatching early episodes of the show after playing the game and comparing how the monsters had been portrayed in game, which was very faithful. the Megazord fights were definitely the weakest part of the game, and i dont think the devs had much faith in them since you can't actually lose/game over on them. the game definitely has a lot of gameplay variety, with all of the previously mentioned levels, side segements like the rollercoaster ride, collectibles/secrets/level goals, and the three surprisingly addictive arcade games in the juice bar which are SO much better than they have any right to be. for the discounted thirty dollars i paid for it at launch on Steam, i cant complain much. it was a nostalgic fantastic time and got me watching the original series which i barely saw back in the day. i loved the game even MORE pre launch patch and i wish there was an option to switch between versions. the slower ranger gameplay was more reminiscent of Streets Of Rage 2 combat, and the harder Zord levels got me actually having to practice like a real shmup game. i havent played the 16 bit MMPR games, ill definitely need to try those on my Miyoo Mini soon!

[@RedCowArcade]

There’s also a really great OpenBOR fan game based on those you can play too! I should’ve mentioned that, it’s one of my favorites.

[@AlexandriaBrah]

@RedCowArcade ive heard about that one too and is also on my list to try out! ^-^

[@itsnotme987]

Pretty good game

[@Willtendo2]

Crazy to me they didn't just make a sequel to power rangers battle for the grid

[@loganlabach4227]

Oh hey I wanted to say this that metal heroes series that shatter hand is based on is really cool I think they are better than sentai or kamen rider discotek released them!

[@RedCowArcade]

I’ll check it out!

[@ToLa-qe1pg]

Can we really trust the opinions of someone whose favorite movie is Joker 2? 🤔

[@RedCowArcade]

Favorite movie! 🤣

[@ToLa-qe1pg]

@RedCowArcade you didn't deny it! 😂

[@chuckycheesechucky]

i'm like chili

[@MAXX1up]

Burnout Revenge is essentially a better version of Burnout 3, highly recommended.

[@futureskeletons66669]

Shortcuts are a nightmare.

[@joypadlad]

Frankie, look up the Beats of Power fan game. It’s a great game.

[@RedCowArcade]

Yeah I've played it and I really like it!

[@KingRey2001]

Game was so mfing difficult and slow at launch, after patches…….. it’s fair and a bit faster but it’s still a short game, still fun but shredders revenge is still the best modern beat em up out there

[@rickylewis1451]

I remember playing burnout 2 or 3 on OG Xbox with my custom soundtrack it was awesome. Disappointed about the Power Rangers game I'm glad I didn't buy it.

[@onkkell]

these absolute nintendo boys never tried Burnout? pretty tasty, I see why people like it.

[@RedCowArcade]

Never even had a PS2

[@onkkell]

I didn't either at the time, played it on muh xbox. bought a PS2 later though and I love it.

[@Mrajtheartist]

[@groalerable]

someone should make an Ernest game

[@TheUballe]

Shooting ropes.

[@andrewlima7242]

Hard disagree. I thought the music was tremendous in RR.

[@JimEpcotLive]

Comment

[@i0606]

play some SSX and SSX Tricky

[@ZeroBusterXX]

There's not really a ton of good PR games outside of some okay SNES beat 'em ups. There's not even many good Sentai games you could pretend are PR ones. Which is a shame since Kamen Rider and Ultraman have decent games in quite a few console generations

[@joshtoten]

Those DS Kamen Rider games were so dang good.

[@ZeroBusterXX]

@joshtoten They were. The Lost Heroes crossover RPGs and stuff on the PSP are good too

[@MrXabungle]

Rita's Rewind is so damn sloppy even after the update.

[@liquiterge]

I never played the Burnout games because I never cared much for racing games, but I can’t believe they have ponk for the soundtrack. Good lord.
