I was just going to post this... glad I saw this thread first. Anyway I'm sure you all have a lot more respect for Zaxxon's Motherbase 2000 now! :)
I was excited to share this Joe! Hope your not mad ha ha! :mrgreen:

I tried commenting on the video, but it seems that youtube is broken at the moment. :?
My favorite thing is the pitch perfect voice. The diction, attention span, attitude and general knowledge are all bang-on. It's one thing to have the idea to do something like this, but it's a lot harder to pull it off well on purpose. You nailed the performance. :clap:

Joe had me send him a copy of Viewpoint for the Neo Geo so he could do a type of YT review that needs to be poked fun at. Check it out!

I did,damn joe just man handle your copy of viewpoint i suggest wipeing it clear of finger prints for when you get it back :roll:
I kind of expected something like this. Not a big deal. :)

It's OK. I sterilize all outgoing packages to make sure my diseases don't spread. No carts or boxes were harmed in the video.

Joe, that was as painful as the Real McCoy. :)
I want you to do more reviews, but I don't think I can handle another parody!
Quite entertaining, nonetheless :)

I do have something else up my sleeve, but it might be a couple of weeks before it is unveiled. It's no parody or anything like that and it will be kind of review-ish.

lol, great job Joe! I laughed pretty hard. Was it the easiest video you've uploaded, or did you find it more difficult to force yourself to do such low quality? LOL
You should do more vids like this to increase views.

Actually there were a few things I had to do retakes on because I started making sense or I just wasn't being obnoxious enough. After editing I went back and added that bit about Zaxxon's Motherbase 2000 at the end, just to be a turd. :)

New Game Sack episode!

Joe, this episode was absolutely wonderful. :) I'm going to watch it again.
But, first, who is your co-host?
And, the music that played during the ending credits is from Slap Fight? I'll have to check the tunes out, the short excerpt certainly sounded very nice.
Bravo.

Post by: Joe Redifer on April 18, 2011, 10:43:12 AM
Ooops I also posted this link the the "What you watchin' on Youtube" thread. Oh well.
My co-host is Dave White whom I've known since high school. He and I are both very into retro games. He has more games than I do. In high school he was all about Nintendo and I was all about Sega. I eventually got him to sell his Nintendo stuff and get into Genesis. He has since gotten all of his Nintendo stuff back (and then some) but is now in the process of collecting every game released for the Genesis. And yes, he has a bunch of Turbo stuff as well. Anyway, we play on the old fanboy-isms in these episodes. Next week's episode (already shot) is just plain ridiculous, but that's why it'll be great.
And yes, that's Slap Fight. Music by Yuzo Koshiro. The music in the game reminds me of Gradius but that tune played at the end reminds Dave of Ys or Dragon Slayer, he said.

Yuzo Koshiro. Damn.
In this episode, the banter/chemistry between you and Dave improved...we are starting to see more personality and character. Definitely a good thing.
Anyway, I love all the little touches you two had (e.g. the pair of you, donning glasses, dodging in unison at the end). Grabbing the missile. Etc. etc.
Has anyone pointed out that you look like the NON-SWISS TATSUJIN (aka "The American version of Tats" (TAVOT))?
I can't wait to see the next episode.

I guess I'll post the links in this thread.
Jen randomly pulls two games out of the game sack to compare. This time it's Rambo III on the Sega Master System vs Panzer Dragoon Saga on the Sega Saturn. Which is better?
Title: Re: Joe Redifer Reviews Presents...
Post by: esteban on April 25, 2011, 08:21:55 AM
Joe.
Awesome.
Seriously.
FANTASTIC.
:)
So, take all of the comments I made about the previous video, since they apply to this new episode as well.
Plus, I really like the concept of "Random Battle". It works well since you both have interesting/amusing reasons to support the game you've been dealt.
Please don't stop entertaining us.
Title: Re: Joe Redifer Reviews Presents...
Post by: Joe Redifer on April 25, 2011, 01:33:25 PM
Glad you like. We'll do lots of Random Battles, but obviously we won't do them every episode. Next week might be a bit special for Turbo users. :)

I really liked the Crush video. It didn't sell me on Jaki Crush, and may have sold me away from picking up the Genesis version (they squished everything? Really!? wtf... Though I do like the Genesis version of some of the music)
LOVED the Sonic vs Mario episode. The stop motion bit at the end was awesome. No Bonk? There was mention of Sonic jumping over to a Nintendo system, and there could have been mention of Bonk jumping to the NES. I guess Bonk is a distant cousin compared to Mario and Sonic.
Every episode has been all sorts of entertaining. I love the quick cuts with the "swoosh-bang" sound effects when you put a cartridge in the systems. Lot's of neat little touches like that.
Title: Re: Joe Redifer Reviews Presents...
Post by: Joe Redifer on May 10, 2011, 10:47:57 AM
The thing with Bonk is that he jumped to other systems while the TurboGrafx-16 was still being supported! That kind of makes me not think of him as a PCE icon. Air Zonk, on the other hand... but even he is just a mutated Bonk. Damn you PC Engine, for not having a true, dedicated mascot. Keith Courage doesn't count!

Jaki Crush is just as deep of a video pinball game as Devil's. I picked up a copy at MGC this year and have not regretted it. If you like DC then get Jaki! :)

Jaki Crush is a poor man's Devil's Crush. Which isn't a knock against Jaki or anything, as it's a great game in its own right. DC is just so f*cking good. The only area where JC might have a leg up on DC is in the bonus round department.

That's the main thing I like about Jaki. Sure the main table, and I should have stated this, isn't quite as busy as DC, but the bonus rounds make up for it IMO. :)

We are definitely NOT doing an episode based on movie games next week. Dave better not try anything or else I'll have to remind him of the beating he got in this episode.
Also, we're doing another random drawing where a lucky viewer wins a random game next week. Enter now!

Thanks for the Neo Geo games Joe...I guess. I do have a Neo Geo, but mine is the Special Edition prototype that plays Genesis, PC Engine, Commodore 64, as well as Ultra 64 games. It will even play games from the upcoming next generation of gaming platforms.
Don't "lose" them in the mail this time Joe. [-(

A nicely informative and really funny video this time round, guys. Way to evangelize CRT TVs and turning off the damn 16:9 mode when playing old game systems!

Joe makes fun of Dave because Dave, poor Dave, has a collection of gaming swag that made every eBay seller in the area blush.
Joe, since you like space-based games so much you should do an episode based upon your love for any game set in a vacuum. Plus, I bet you have way more space games than Dave has. :P
