Cinemassacre Id tell you guys to do the lost levels and AVGN Adventures together..

I was honestly laughing out loud watching their reactions to the most intense moments. I really wish they'd do more straight playthroughs of difficult games.

[@joshuahyde6840]

Hahah I agree. I could not stop replaying the spaghetti hallway scene over an over again because of how hilarious it was. I could definitely watch more uncut James an Mike videos.

[@GlitchyCheckpoint]

There aren't that many hard co-op games though. This means they prefer to invite Bootsy and Kevin.

[@Riehardo]

Difficult games? Have a mercy. They just barely beat an easy one.

[@swaxTV]

Riehardo shut your mouth

[@SPARK19064]

RedHairdo I got really confused for a moment since the name of the dude you responded to is Riehardo and your name is Redhairdo lol But I always thought that a difficult game would be the kind of game that require you to pay a lot of attention even if you're really good at them, kinda like God Hand for the ps2, or most Ninja Gaiden games. The Contra games are this kind of game too imo. Sorry for my shit english.

[@MephMetal]

"I don't wanna see one damn cut" *cuts immediately* :D You guys have such a good humour. I love watching these.

[@TheTigeressGuy]

God just watching people play this game has my heart racing. You guys are true gamers for beating this game without the 10 live code, and with two players. I could never do it.

[@Peter_Morris]

I don't know why you guys keep avoiding the R power up. It stands for Rapid and it speeds up the bullets. It works on all the guns, moving the bullets across the screen faster so you can get more hits in. It even works with the machine gun.

Super C is better than Contra, for one simple reason: The enemy bullets flash in Super C and are more visible than the ones in Contra, which way too easily hide in front of some backgrounds.

[@ViremiChan]

I grew up with this game. We only had Super C and Ice Hockey, and I always watched while my older siblings beat the game over and over. When I was older enough to play, I already memorized the whole game. Playing it in co-op for so many years, we can finish it with no code and no continues pretty easily.

He's "deeeeead fuckin serious."

[@mickeymouse12678]

He's smiling almost the whole time. It's kind of adorable tbh. :)

[@assassinhunter]

Just some tips: S is better when you shoot twice for a 5 spread instead of just tapping like crazy F is the most Overpower weapon of the game, it insta kills bosses immediately (try holding fire and re tap fire for double fire) R just increase the shooting of the weapon you have, which is good with S and I agree with the L, it sucks.

[@DrBeef216]

Realistically, most of the NES library hasn't aged too well by this point. It's nearly 30 years old, so it's understandable. The Contra games though...they were SO well done and unique that they set a benchmark that almost made them immune to aging. If the Contra games are still fun at this point, I see no reason why they won't be when I'm an old-assed man.

[@mikedeni4512]

Coming from an old ass man....they are

[@pentelegomenon1175]

I'd say the NES library has aged pretty well compared to, say, the PS2 where most games have lost nearly all of their value in a year or less.

That was quite a ride down memory lane, you should do more of these... Viewers are sympathetic to what you guys "go through" so it adds to the fun factor! Thumbs UP!

[@mattynigma]

I think I speak for everyone when I say you can run these as long as you want, guys.

[@SnepSquad]

Oh, by the way, that powerup that you guys thought did nothing, it actually slightly increases the firing rate. Collecting multiple can make your bullets fly at faster speeds. They actually really help, especially if you have the Machine Gun.

[@SnepSquad]

I LOVE this game. Play it all the time on my NES. I actually find this one more fun than the original.

[@montelwiyums00]

I love Mike at 22:12 "You killed me, you fuck!" then five seconds later, "I'm not blaming you for that." lol

[@JackLiberty0]

Mike Matei, James clearly told you not to make a single cut and immediately after you laughed, you made a cut.

[@Peter_1986]

He meant after they had started the game.

[@Ryusuta]

Honestly, I think it was funnier without the explanation.They should have just left it as a joke.

[@hablahivan6110]

Mike died in the last level, I guess he didn't make the cut

[@Easyflux]

This was very interesting, the whole no-cut thing. I think you should definitely do this waaay more. Kind of feels like you're there with you guys :D Kind of like that feeling when a buddy got a new NES game back in the day, and he wouldn't let you play lol... And all you could do was sit there and watch the trial and error.

[@Arko777777]

Lazor doesn't sucks! It's my favourite weapon in both games because you can make a light saber by pressing turbo button :D.

[@hunterkluth9142]

James and Mike have seriously the very best, best friends relationship I've ever seen, they have been friends for soo long. I've like never have seen either one of them get mad at each other. It's so enjoyable to watch them play games or be on camera together.

[@markhowardganzon8992]

Hunter Kluth I'm pretty sure they wouldn't include an argument in a video.

[@DrGordonFreemanPhD]

You guys need to do more of this kind of stuff. I love the random commentary mixed in with familiar gameplay. I love listening to you guys shoot the shit about random videogames and I love watching you guys get that intense mouth hanging open zoned in nerd-out look on your faces when you get to a screen that requires serious focus. Reminds me of my younger vidyagame days.

[@skan898]

I'd like to see them play Contra The Hardcorps , I had that game since I was a kid ,and used to play it with my little bro all the time . Good times ..

[@2DSM2]

That was actually a good run guys :D. You two are an awesome duo at 2player games. Shame there aren't many games like this nowadays.

[@sillypenta]

Contra 3 has 360 spread if you pick up two spreaders and hold L, R and the fire button

[@t3hPoundcake]

Something kids much younger than 20 (my age) will never know now days is the joy we all used to get from having a sleep over on Friday night after school and sitting on the couch or on the floor on an old ass tube TV playing some video games co-op. I still love playing games over the internet with my friends and meeting new friends in games is awesome, but nothing will ever again compare to the memories I have of gaming with my friends and siblings all night like this.

During the last part with the collapsing ceiling and all the orb things...once the wall comes all the way down, you can still jump over the next gap to the platform. The character will kind of "stick" to the ceiling thing and you'll make it across.

Mike to James: You need to get spread man James:👀

[@martinbondesson]

You need to do more playthroughs! That was funny, intense and entertaining! :)

[@Jetsudo]

My mate and I loved this game, though in Australia it was known as Probotectors 2- Return of the Evil Forces. We would play it all the time and that is how we discovered the first one (from a second hand store). It was like a revelation, to finally start it from the beginning... We also used to race at the end of the side scroll, if you jump at the right time, when the music starts up, you're further to the right than your mate. With the top down- we tried to stand in the exact position where you walk straight and not have to be corrected. Added that little bit more fun to the game haha!

[@JellyfishOverlord]

Intense.

[@Ryusuta]

I'm just going to throw this out here, guys. I think it would be AMAZING to see more straight, uncut playthroughs with you guys. Like... Kirby Superstar would be AWESOME (one of you as Kirby, one as the partner[s]). The commentary doesn't need to be absolutely fluent, it's just fun seeing a nice, long playthrough of a game with you two. Just my two cents, though. =)

I hate two player games. I'm glad they got rid of them as the years went by. Nintendo and Capcom keeps making local multiplayer games and that's probably why they're hurting so bad. Have we learned nothing from the L4D2 hate!?

Wait, L4D2 hate? When did that happen?

[@sparkydeltorro]

Local Multiplayer is/has always been better than Online multiplayer. If you don't think that, it's because you've no real friends and that's not an insult just a fact.

[@realKyleReese]

My friends hate it too. We'd rather game together online. If you think LAN is better, then you're the reason the gaming industry is hurting. Battlefield 4 got rid of local multiplayer. Look how successful it is. Same with Half Life 2. Everything is online. My friends don't won't to CoOp on the same screen in each other's homes. We'd rather be in our own home on our own console/PC, on our own TVs, with our own ISPs. I know plenty of people doing this. Look at GTA Online! Face it. Local multiplayer is going the way of the dinosaurs. It's not because the hardware is limited and incapable of rendering separate images, no. That's not the reason. The reason is that people don't want it. It's a nuisance. >Playing games with family and bringing people into your home. >2013 >ISHYGDDT
