[@tsyumamatsuthehavenofguard32]

Well considering there's an illegal game I wonder if that'll show up

[@suntannedduck2388]

To me it's either they are comfortable with particular audiences/topic as a lot of effort/expectation to branch out. That or lack of research on Ratchet game audiences/creators for speedrunning, or general reviews. That or have no interest in the games just like many prefer Jak/Sly probably for being open world or charm I don't know. But I think GamingBrit does a good job of obscure and favourites (Ratchet, big hit action games, obscure like Another Code) and gets the views among other creators that have covered Ratchet or B grade platformers even so it can't be that hard to bring in other audiences with 1 video every so often doing so and we gamers do care about old systems not just Nintendo especially if we did start with PlayStation or other consoles and aren't all into the latest things stereotypically. That and trashing shovelware I guess works for views maybe *shrugs* along with other bigger surface level IPs even though Ratchet is Sony's big platformer so it's not like they aren't not relevant.

Mama saying "pics or it didn't happened" it's the thing I needed the most in my life and I didn't even knew it

AntDude is quickly becoming one of if not my favorite KZbinrs. Every time I see an upload in my subscription feed I know I'm in for a treat.

I never thought I’d live to hear Ant say, “It is finally time to take the Mama fun outside”

After listening to all of the alrocast and hearing you talk about hellofresh it makes me happy to see that you finally got the sponsor!

This is your funniest video in quite a while. Keep up the great work!

i think gardening mama is a gorgeous game, it was the best mama game imo. its pixel renderings are so pleasing to the eye, and the feeling of growth and achievement i got playing it during long days in the car is tangible

Always good when a person who uses a service irl finally gets dream sponsorship. Only played the original but might use the game if it's on discount

Sweet shop had some fun mechanics for running the shop and doing challenges to unlock new National dishes. OG and sweet shop are my favorites.

I loved the cooking one for DS. Just a good way to pass time. Edit: It was cooking mama 2.
