Medal of Honor in 2024 - Retrospective and nostalgia free Review
When Medal of Honor was released for PlayStation in 1999, it revolutionized the first-person shooter genre on the PS1. In this new retrospective, I look back at the milestone of the FPS genre and shed light on the history of the game's creation. I also examine the question of whether Medal of Honor is still worth a look 25 years later.

F-Zero is one of the oldest Nintendo game series, but unfortunately the last part of the F-Zero series, F-Zero Climax, was released in 2004. Why haven't we seen a new game?

Rise and Fall of Wave Race
Переглядів 1,6 тис.2 місяці тому
In this video I talk about the Wave Race series from Nintendo. Back then, the games showed the technical possibilities of a Nintendo console and were also a lot of fun to play. What happened to the series? Why haven't we had a new jet ski racing game since 2001? I'll try to answer all of these questions in my new retrospective. So I hope you enjoy the "Rise and Fall of Wave Race" #riseandfall #...
A brief history of the OG Xbox

The good old Xbox is turning 24! To celebrate, I'm looking at the history of Microsoft's first console in a detailed retrospective. From Microsoft's beginnings in the gaming market, to the creation of the Xbox, the purchase of Rare and the introduction of Xbox Live. It's been a wild ride, but it's definitely been worth it! #xbox #retrospective #pixelchronicles
Rise & Fall of the Sega Dreamcast
Переглядів 4,6 тис.2 місяці тому
The Sega Dreamcast ushered in the 6th console generation in 1998, but was doomed after just 26 months. In my new gaming documentary, I take a closer look at the Sega Dreamcast and try to show why the console didn't work out and why Sega gave up the hardware business completely. I hope you enjoy the "Rise and Fall of the Sega Dreamcast".

Ryse and Fall of the Son of Rome
Переглядів 1112 місяці тому
Ryse: Son of Rome was a visually impressive launch title for the Xbox One. It set graphical standards in 2013, but was not really convincing in terms of gameplay. The release was also accompanied by negative headlines, which also damaged the game. In this video, I will therefore shed light on the Ryse and Fall of the Son of Rome.
Rise & Fall of Prey

This time, the new gaming documentary is about Prey, a first-person shooter from 3D Realms that was released in 2006 for PC and Xbox 360 and took 11 years to develop. In the brand new "Rise and Fall" retrospective, you'll find out why Prey became a hit despite its difficult development but is now unjustly forgotten. #riseandfall #prey #pixelchronicles

GoldenEye 007 - History of a masterpiece NOBODY believed in
amazing video, please transale also the video about the saturn see ya
I absolutely had the same feeling about Sacred Odissey!Playing it even today on my Xperia play!That was in 2011,and,yes i was also with Samsung Galaxy S back then and havent got a chance to try an Xperia play,but now i bought it!
Jump & Run... aka 'Platformer'.
I just got this in the mail. I have played and loved MoH Underground for the last weeks so I couldn't stop myself from ordering this too.
Great to have your real voice in the video
Some skipped numeracy class clearly. Calling N64 the N, 3DO the Do and the PS One the PS 🤦🏾♂️
Some other skipped reading class. Or did you read the note at the beginning of the video?
Lol Columbine. It's about a world war. Not teenagers doing a drive-by 😂
And yet the game was heavily censored. Just look at the gamepad in the beta trailer
Great Video, great memories.
hey guys, this is my first video without AI translation. What you hear is my voice and it's clear that I'm not a native speaker. I will work on my pronunciation and think that future videos will be even better. But for now I hope that you can enjoy this video anyways. I
Sounds great! Much preferred
@@jeffstein4578 Absolutely agree, real human voice > ai voice.
Achoo.. SNEEZE controller lol
PC over PlayStation, PlayStation over Xbox , Xbox over Baywatch Season 1
Excellence? To those who don't know better i suppose. I have worked on game hardware for a while now. It wasn't until 2010 or so that Sony finally made a reliable playstation. On top of that a rather large portion of the games that made the platform big were from third parties that could have gone on any platform but chose playstation because Nintendo and SEGA were in mid F-up. Sony themselves are not a game company. They didn’t really have a history in the craft. They let other people from third parties do most of the work for them and hired outside talent to produce their in-house franchises. This is not to say that a good time cant be had on a playstation mind you. However Sony gets an awful lot of credit for works that are not theirs on hardware that historically dies way too easily.
the AI voice is annoying either pay someone to do the voice over or do it yourself
This voice is doing better than previous videos at least...
what, bring it back sony!
Thank you for highlighting our work ❤
Awesome video I just subbed up to your main channel also 👍
There's no link in the video description
I have like 3 or 4 of these I did a Whole butt load of research into the emulators that worked well with it and found that the independent ones were best I was actually carrying it around an a daily basis when the screen got fucked up After that I freaked out about messing it up forever and put it down I actually found it after letting it sit for years It still had a charge from sleep mode it wasn't even turned off I never tried the Android games but some of them look good I'm going to have to get a hold of them
Awesome video and insights new sub 4life have Awesome day FYI watching in Houston Texas you're work is paying off.
Nintendo's biggest fumble lol they created a monster!!!!
My sister had this in the past and I got it from her when she upgraded her phone. It still works well as an emulation phone, but that's about all I've tried to do with it.
What are the games listed in the video?
Had fun with this phone back in 2018 thru a cheap Ebay buy. Beat MegamanX4 on it. Wish we had a modern option.
If Sony dropped a (well done) Playstation phone in the price range of an S series I'd be in there like swimwear my friend.
Id buy a modern version of it
Amazing content still watching btw but passing by to be the first to comment 👏
Is this nade by AI?😮
Have you read the note at the beginning?
Ai really has come quite far. Cool to see it being used like this. The translation gave your voice a bit of a lisp though lol
Wait... I had no idea they issued refunds and shut down the entire game. That's nuts
I’ve notice the six vs eight years discrepancy too. I think it has to do with Firewalk being founded in 2018. To raise money and attract employees there must have been seed ideas for the studio. So, the idea for Concord probably existed in 2016 (or so) although actual work did not start until later.
11:39 - There were 6 broadcasts, 4 for BS F-Zero Grand Prix, and 2 for BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2. The Grand Prix 2 roms have never been found. Earlier this year, I was part of a project that restored and recreated the missing content from the VHS footage. So the courses are now playable, and recreated accurately, but we still don't have the actual rom.
Then F-Zero 99 got an update on Oct. 1st, adding Big Blue II, Sand Storm I and II, Mute City IV, and Silence II in the form of the Ace League. Even added the F-Zero 2 machines as new decals for the other machines (though I don't know if it's just a sprite swap or if they actually preform different). The one thing Nintendo could of done to really win me over with F-Zero 99 and they did it.
The execs who geenlit this for wider release without working on the beta feedback, needs to be sacked
$400 mil and play like shit? DEI hires sure asking price too high with low skills/none at all
Yeah, because that's the number one problem with this game: "woke"ness and not pandering exclusively to straight white men.
Nobody praised the worldbuilding in concord, it was rediculed as a cheap guardianse of the galaxy knock off. And sony paying for it to be on secret level says nothing about the quality of the world building especialy when pacman and spelunky are part of secret level as well wirh bouth having close to zero world building themselfe.
But atleast they released that game after 8 years of development unlike yandere simulator
Concord failed because it fell under the influence of Rainbow Terrorists.
I think sony is going the path of sega and will begin bowing out of video games. They’ve shown in this year alone that they completely lost touch with the gaming community with what they tried to do with helldivers 2 and now this
I hope so. Maybe some Japanese companies can buy some of the IP when Sony sells them.
The Dreamcast have been technically Sega‘s best system, but it was my least favourite Sega systems, it was mainly a placeholder for the PS2 and once Sony announced the PS2 and it’s gained it was pretty much over for Sega.
When the PS1 came out in Britain I bought ridge racer but also found out that ridge racer revolution was out in Japan hence why I used the disc swap trick as .od chips weren't out yet❤️🏴
Blame shigeru miyamoto. He's on record stating the sole reason there have been no more f-zero entries is becuase they cant think of any new ways to innovate in the game. Like, who the fuck cares my guy? Its a racing game, i dont want to steer with my butt, just release a tight, fast, balls-to-the-wall experience with a metal soundtrack and I'm golden.
Alot of people complain about Call of Duty, Dynasty Warriors, and Ubisoft games for not being innovative enough. What's why Nintendo takes innovation very seriously, because they don't want to end up like Activision, Blizzard, and Ubisoft.
I'd rather have the accent than more AI narration. Your English is more than good enough.
Will confirm.
Great videos either way, but 100% agree that I would prefer Andy's actual voice
This must be the first video you translated without AI help?
Ahhh so its the fake wario fans fault, got it.
Is it just me or does anybody else get the impression that this is voiced by AI?
It's translated by AI as shown in the note at the beginning of the video
@@PixelChronicles-yt ah, I missed that. I was just listening to it
Watching this as I wear my new Dreamcast tshirt I bought yesterday at Tokyo Game Show.
One thing I most certainly don't miss about the old days of getting is the huge delay between the US launched and EU ones. And that's if we ever got the game at all! But damn, it's still crazy that it took them 5 years to launch the Game Boy game over here. I wonder if they even changes anything in the game whatsoever for the PAL launch. What I do miss about the 90s era of gaming tho is the marvel it was to behold with how technology constantly evolved and each new generation of consoles would represent such a monumental leap in what was possible compared to before. If we take 1990-2000 We literally went from the 8 bits of the NES, to the very realistic look of the PS2 era. We got to witness the advancement 16 bit provided in 2D visuals and even sneak peaks of 3D before the whole new dimension was cracked open with the N64 era. So many cool ideas ans concepts during that one decade. Today, tho, we are seeing such diminishing returns in technology. As in you can almost barely tell the difference. The excitement, magic, wonder of the next Frontier is basically non-existing. It's just more of the same.
The thing is, I think an F-Zero GX HD would get lots of hype from the dedicated fans and win word of mouth advertising. If a niche game like dark souls could become the blue print for all action games because of the devotion of the fanbase then that proves that fan word of mouth can do a lot of heavy lifitng.
Really great in-depth history video. It's fascinating how goldeneye went through a rail shooter before landing on the FPS genre. It's also crazy to think that the multiplayer which really was what have goldeneye it's longevity and cult status in the bedroom was pretty much a rushed afterthought. I have a question about the video itself tho. Why is it in many parts of it when we see still shots of photographs that there seem to be generated lip movement?
I have 4 of them, all working !
F zero X is a timeless game, it’s a great game , can’t believe it sold less than 1080 snowboarding, I mean 1080 is a great game but I thought f zero x was more successful, the rearrange sound track was on my Winamp list when I surfed the web and chat with friends on ICQ back in the late 90’s 🥹
This game never fell from Grace. It's just that Nintendo didn't give it another chance after they hit perfection on the GameCube.
Pero si es graciosos es BACILOOOOONNNN
