These Video Games CHANGED MY LIFE

[@tomallica420]

Your saying that you always had comedy around as a kid reminded me of all the comedy specials I got to watch as a kid because of the same thing. And now I can't stop cracking jokes and comedy is one of my most favorite things.

Of the games you've said you've worked on I've played most of them and I'd say none of them are bad that I've played. Great job sir stay proud!

I played NCAA 204 a TON in college. Thank you sir.

Love hearing your personal experiences! For me, due to my age, video games in general greatly affected me. I remember the first time I saw a pong console in the Sears catalog. The concept of playing games on your TV was mesmerizing to me! Then when the Atari VCS came out, that was a game changer! While I did spend my fair share of time outside playing and riding my Honda CT70, I was never bored inside thanks to my Atari!

I know it's not necessarily too late to do a video response to this, but I really wish I would have done it 3 weeks ago... Stepped my head and my heart haven't really been into making videos lately. Love all the mentions here. Figured out a few that would be on the list. I really got to make Scott play Siukoden 2 this year and while I'm at it I got to make my self play the first one 😂

Thank you so much for the shoutout. I really enjoyed your take on this. I hope more people find games that can truly help them in life.

First game i bought with my own money was Mike Tysons Punch Out in 1988. Toys R Us (32.99 plus tax).

SMB2 really got me into the Super Mario universe as well as I never really played the first game much after getting Double Dragon.

I will never forget the day my friend got the sega megadrive, when we put on sonic, the sound, the graphics, we freaked out. Coming from the Nes, it was so amazing.

I first heard about Red Skelton from an episode of I Love Lucy

I cant believe suikoden 1 and 2 remake or remaster, whatever it is, is actually coming to reality. Those 2 and suikoen 5 have been my all time favortie games. I was hopin it would become something like the Final Fantasy series and have countless new games over the years. All they had to do was minor updates and a new story upon every new release. But they messed up just like so many before them and released stuff that divided fans, instead of sticking with what worked and what fans wanted.

Great video. I love your choices and I love the fact that you still enjoy gaming even though your older than me. I am 41 and still game when I can or have the energy for it. Some women think it’s a waste of time and I’m too old but I don’t care. Gaming is what has kept me out of trouble and doing other things such as joining a gang or doing drugs or worse. One franchise that definitely has changed my life was the metal gear solid series and GTA 3 and Vice City. I know you play the bad guys but they there for me when I had no friends to hang out with. Keep up the good work

@MrBigphil83 I'm around the same age. How do you find time to play with family, work, everyday life etc?

[@austintaylor5683]

Awesome list. Mine would be the halo series and playing those with my dad and siblings, Pokémon fire red, melee and twilight princess on the GameCube, and more recently breath of the wild

It's okay I failed algebra 2 as well lol

Right there with you on Mario 2, NHL, Monkey Island and Gamecube NCAA 2004. Where we differ is in Destiny Knight. I still contend that it's the worst game in the series by far. It was constantly hamstringing the player, taking away your abilities in ways that weren't fun. Plus the Snares were just a series of tedious high stakes puzzles. It never felt like you were on a real adventure. The third game retained everything good about the second game (Archmages, ranged combat, wilderness exploration) but also returned to the same sense of adventure you felt from the first game. In fact the C64 version of Thief of Fate may be my favorite game of all time. As a side note, just a reminder here about possibly doing a roundup of all currently available Switch hockey games, including those part of Nintendo Online collections and whatnot. Ideally I want EA to give us NHL 94-24, which is just NHL 94 on a modern platform with updated rosters and online multitap functionality. Seems it would take a minimum of effort on their part. Oh well. I can dream.
