A small little thing, but I found the animation in this game pretty amazing for a time where 3D fighting game animations can suck. They sell their motions much better than any Mortal Kombat game. Sion's backhand kick is beautiful and they all actually look like they know how to fight. People don't appreciate good animation anymore. Bad ones still exist, trust me. They're just covered by the graphics.

I watched this video with the full intent to shit on it because I remember loving the Bouncer when I was younger but none of your points can be refuted. I think a big problem with the game was that, at it's heart, it was supposed to have been a fighting game and the story mode was just meant to unlock the characters. It gets judged by the single player mode which was lackluster and, in the grand scheme of things, it wouldn't have measured up as a fighting game either.

Wait...you played through the game multiples (as is common for the game) but you don't understand why Mikado did what his intentions were? How did you not gather that? Dauragon and Dominique were poor orphans turned away by the hospital they came to when Dominique was sick because they had no money and no one cared about them. She died of her illness, and so Mikado devoted his life to becoming someone rich that everyone else depended on. Then he made a robotic version of his sister because he missed her, and also used her as part of his cannon to just murder everyone, starting with the hospital that turned them away. He used the public's dependency on him and his technology against them. Like, it's not the greatest motivation, but it's definitely there. Hell, I think you can get all that from the first playthrough of the game, even...

Yeah, this guy had all of the most absolutely plebian responses to The Bouncer that mirrored why people didn't like it at the time it came out. Nothing really treats a game from the 90's or early 2000s quite as bad as it's initial, base value reception, and because of that a lot of fantastic video games have been buried by the tide of time. That is why I loathe a lot of the big name "game reviewers" of the day, they felt only the absolute most mainstream, superficially important games of the day were worth playing. People even sort of shat on Final Fantasy VIII at the time it came out. Austin didn't take an actually critical or introspective look at the game at all, he mirrored all the basic bitch gripes people had at the time it came out.

While I will not refute any of the points you made in your video, I must express that this game actually holds an incredible amount of nostalgic value for me. This was actually the first PS2 game I ever played, and I remember being totally blown away by the graphical capabilities of the then brand new system, as well as enjoying the story and overall presentation. I was also playing it as a rental with a group of friends, which no doubt helped. Of course, we had also rented Onimusha at the same time, so playing that immediately after we pretty quickly forgot about The Bouncer and I never did play it again. Still, while it may be terribly flawed, it remains as probably the best-looking of all the PS2 launch titles, and being one of the few of that lineup, I'm sure there are many more people out there that were introduced to a whole new generation of gaming with this title. Good video man, brought back a lot of memories.

Its like the wu tang clan in the 1990's vs wu now. the 90's they were hungry so they worked there asses off for better living situations. vs now there more relaxed from there success so they dont put as much effort in it like they use too.

It's nice that Kou turns out to be a spy. Kou's casualness on the phone at the start didn't strike me as poor storytelling, it struck me as suspicious that he could be so casual in the midst of what's meant to be a kidnapping. I actually thought he was a spy for Mikado actually. I don't see what the issue is with "underage girls" if he's around the same age. (He is, isn't he?)

It was on an emulator, and I don't believe there was any problems following that. The story was pretty dumb, so was the characters, but it in no way diminished the fun we had, thanks to the voice acting and crazy short levels. We did get a couple cases of the enemies getting trapped in the environment, maybe that was because of the emulator? Can't say for sure.

Kasper Pedersen lol story was anime fueled. It's very basic. If you watch anime, you'll appreciate it more. Every game could glitch that way. Sometimes the triggers are specific with rendering. I've never, nor have I heard many of any players see any bugs like that. So I'd say it just shouldn't be counted as buggy cause the majority didn't have that problem. And it's probably more prevalent on the emulator. Could also try to get an iso from another site. That works a lot for games I've had bug problems woth...if I made sure my computer and emulator was set right already. Rock on.

Have you seen the Japanese culture that tries to emulate American in Japan? You get these variety of mixed styles in their effort to try to make it their own. Its actually common in the early 2000's, though to not that extent of the "super long pants". Sion is only a few years older than Dominique. He is not a pedophile.

yea. I got this game for Christmas I think. anyhow., beat the game a few times. Replayed it periodically, for a year or so before I graduated. Went to Japan right out of bootcamp, that Iwent to immediately after graduation. And sure enough, games like this captured the general young population of Japan at that time. I loved the weird quirky looks. Being themselves and blending our styles was amazing. Coming back to america, it was boring. I felt like there were only avery small amount of us that did this. blending of the world's culture. UNtil this coming generation. I'm 34 now, and I see kids now dressing the way these games used to have their characters do. Or more accurately, how I saw Japan back in the very early 2ks

Whoa, this is so weird! Earlier today, I found this game on my shelf randomly, among a collection of PS2 games given to me by a relative. I find it, see that it’s by SquareSoft, think that’s bizarre as I’ve never heard of it, and then put it back on the shelf. But then, a few minutes ago, I’m watching a video by you, where you mention you reviewed The Bouncer! So I had to go and check out the review. It’s kinda disappointing that it turned out to be bad, but still, it’s cool that it’s the only SquareSoft game I own. Oh, and yeah, it’s impossible to read on a PS2, or even the real original box.

Javier Molina kingdom hearts has little to do with the KH plot,because in every game Kingdom Hearts is something different, thus Kingdom Hearts is arbitrary. Kingdom hearts is basically "the name were going to call this thing in this game" despite the fact that kingdom hearts is a different thing in every game. And the game being good is subjective. The writing from DDD onwards is absolutely atrocious; even fans of the series (such as myself) can't refute this. Aspects of the games are good.

I actually like the costume design. It has this blend of 90s punk//goth clubkid but in a fantasy world. It's pretty current with the time it was released in. If you look at all his work you definitely get a feel of where Tetsuya's inspiration comes from. Which is mainly street fashion. Even looking at his design for the characters in FFXV shows he's still influenced by it.

The Bouncers main flaw was that DreamFactory, left the development because of the Xbox which was the result of Kakuto Chojin which like The Bouncer was rushed. Still despite both games being heavily panned, I still enjoy DreamFactory games for what they try to do to innovate the fighting game genre which a lot of their mechanics where later used on other fighting games.
