In a better universe this video is called "Peggle Abomination is a Blast!"
lol
Penny brought me here.
same
Saaame
Who’s penny
I have to admit, I've never before watched these videos, because it said "watch later" on them and I subconciously went "ok" and scrolled past them.
here's the trick I did: Play with data and wifi off so you don't get ads, and before losing your last ball, close and reload the app so you don't lose a life. Too bad the level design is still bad
Same thing happened to Plants VS Zombies sadly. EA bought Popcap and it's been all downhill from there. Makes me extremely upset.
At least garden warfare is good, which i would say evens out pvz 2's shittiness
oh look its the ea bad popcap good person
@@buckethead_cdsonic Thank you. The fault is shared equally among the companies.
My god
Everytime I've downloaded Peggle blast I've gotten some glitch where everything is unlocked and all the bonuses were 100%. Made the game slightly less frustrating
how did that happen?
Putting Peggle Blast on Blast
Can’t wait to see Grayfruit suffer through this
ONE TRICK you can do to not lose lives:
if you fail the level, DO NOT PRESS END LEVEL, instead, restart the game!
"Peggle is proven to improve your mood..."
Damn, really? I think I've seen similar research done to PvZ! Man, Popcap used to be cool. What ever happened to them? Well, we all know the answer's EA, but...
But what? also EA sucks.
@@yusahsener1494 popcap is the one at fault. they make the game and add microtransactions. ea publishes the game. they do that for as long as they can until popcap goes bankrupt
My biggest problem with peggle blast from a "have not played it but seen people play it on youtube" perspective is that when you hit the last orange peg, there's no fanfare. It just zooms in and does the drumroll, then nothing. No ode to joy, no custom classical music for each character just "dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun... music note"
WHY????
I think they took peggle off of the App Store. Good thing they cant take away my ds peggle duel shot
I miss my old iPhone that had regular Peggle on it before they removed it from all app stores. Those were the good old days.
Man, Leo really loves Peggle Blast
If you go to a map management you can close out re open and not loose lives, also if you do it during a duel on blast you won't go back to the first lvl
I redownloaded and played Peggle a couple months ago and it reminded me how great it was. This just makes me sad.
The word Peggle sounds dirty.
Amazes me that Peggle Dual Shot on Nintendo DS is still the best portable Peggle experience.
For a series I thought would follow what Tetris or Puyo Puyo had single player wise, it sure fell quickly and sadly.
Oh interesting, yeah I forgot about that one.
Too bad the Zen ball sucks on DS, regardless i agree.
@@endlessedgar4576 fr i use ar codes on there and the zen shot is so bad
Wish they could've just sold us peggle pointer and block skins and multiplayer Peggle where you flex your competitive peggling skills over a discord call
I actually beat this game in a week without paying for anything but I watched a bunch of ads for rings of fire.
What’s even worse is they never updated Peggle on iPhone to remain playable AND they never put proper Peggle 2 on iPhone or mobile anywhere. It’s locked down on consoles. It plays fine there and it’s a great game but I played probably over 1000 hours of OG Peggle on my phone and now I have nothing. I am a husk of meaningless nothingness.

What is this?
@@justabystander5303games that were ruined by the new mobile game business model of cheap repetitive gameplay designed to give short dopamine hits then tempt you with microtransactions or flood with ads
peggle 1 perfect peggle 2 decent, peggle blast no just no
As someone who has 100%'d Peggle Blast twice, I totally agree.
i just beat peggle blast after like 5 years of playing it on and off WITHOUT any micro transactions bought, one of my biggest gaming accomplishments
0:39 legit sounds like a Scott The Woz bit. IJBOL
Sucks this happened to Bejeweled too. PvZ3 is still somehow holding on though, albeit hanging on the edge of the grave, but still holding on.
What sucks about Peggle Blast is that horrible app design aside, it has some great music, visuals and characters. I loved the new designs for the older peggle masters and the new ones were equally as charming, and that was really the only thing that pushed me to keep playing through the game. It was like a cartoon with a wonderful animation budget but horrible writing...or gameplay in this case.
really? They butchered poor Jimmy.
Closing the app right before you lose won't make you lose a life, because it only takes a life after you lose, and same for continue the fnord levels.
Always good to call this crap out.
Just swipe out the level before accepting defeat. Zero ads and no lives lost
This is just great ^^ nice work, Leo
This video inspired me to fully complete Peggle Blast without spending any money
How's that going. You don't need to do this
This comment inspired me to do it too
I wouldn't say this game is an abomination for its mobile gating schemes, as scummy as they are. It's an abomination because compared to the original Peggle it's a soulless, rushed, unpolished pile of garbage. The amount of polish in the original Peggle is insane, from the physics, the framerate, the mechanics, the theatrics, the particle effects, the sound design, the challenges, etc. It's night and day that the original had an extreme amount of polish and Blast was cobbled together with the lowest effort possible, mobile shovelware with a Peggle veneer.
I mean i can see all of that now. But when I had this game a couple years ago I still 3 starred everything in like 2 weeks(?). Is not THAT bad.
Love that laugh at the end
Honestly, theres really easy ways to avoid losing lives (closing app before failing) and super easy ways to avoid ads (go to home screen and go back into app, worked me for at least). That makes the game awesome and totallly worth playing! Ive beaten every level with 3 stars and found all the secret pegs and have 77/78 achievements. Peggle blast is life.
I agree it was crazy to me how they took something so purely fun and difficult to fuck up, and they fucked it up
i agree. peggle blast is horrible. there was this one level called “blossoming” and it took forever to beat it and i eventually deleted the game because it got too boring. i’m way farther in the original peggle and almost beat the original game (besides the challenge levels).
Peggle blast is so broken it was updated 6 months ago and now it just doesn’t work
Yup, that's about why it was only on my phone for a day
Peggle Blast on Blast
Start a petition to bring back Peggle to iOS
Peggle Assblast: A blast from the past? Or a blast from the ass?
Im 2y late but i noticed that if u pay for extras like balls or fireballs (i just used lucky patcher to destroy the game and see how the pay2win experience is), and of course it is easier, but thats not everything, the game just helps u a bit (making hit more oranges and more catches from the bottom thing
Siituations where i need to hit 5 oranges with 2 balls and those hits 3 oranges and gets catched i thing is managed to make u win... Just a bit
They should just bring back the original and nights
Peggle is my childhood game and i was excited to try the mobile version out. It felt soulless and so much different from the peggle that i remembere
It took me about 4 years to beat level 75. Because I didn’t know about the life cheat and refused to pay. So I’d get frustrated and just forget about the game for months at a time.
I beat the whole game in a month
Well said, mate
I actually like Peggle Blast,it does suck that it has microtransactions and all of that jazz,but its still fun,and the soundtrack is quite good
"Peggle" "blast"
Actually, if you lose prematurely you don't lose lives. Makes for a pretty boring experience with 0 stakes tho
Ofc the game is any better for this and it sucks to have to close your game. And it doesn't stop the ads after the levels either so...
It's a shame because I showed my 3 year old Peggle on the 360 and DS and she loves them. It'd be great if there were a version she could play on her tablet but not this. Not like this.
I beat the game in one month no money spent but I did use the trick to glitch the game to lose no lives but I also never got any ads
I 1000% agree with this.
I think they did a great job with the game, the long vertical format makes it a perfect phone game and its much harder and challenging than the other versions and the main reason people get frustrated with the difficulty, lives, and egg drops is because people are conditioned nowerdays for games to be stupidly easy, early arcade games were also hard so players would insert more coins, so its the same thing here, but the trick is to get good and figure out which character is best to use for specific levels... harder is better ,so stop crying about it and get good i say, theres a "knack" to every level if you figure it out and the difficulty is nothing compared to games like High level pac-man, Ninja gaiden, battletoads etc so seeing people crying about this game being too hard is hilarious, I got 3 stars on every level, sure it was tough in places and had to wait a few times for lives to regenerate but so what its free! and i had a great time playing it and didnt need to spend a dime.
Eh, harder isn't better all the time, especially not for an entry in a classic series. While some may appreciate the challenge, many previous fans of the series would notice the aspects which make the game harder for the sake of it, not to make the game more fun and rewarding to play. The easiest example is the Free Ball pot design, which minimizes the amount of lucky bounces you can get by removing the slopes and reducing its speed across the screen. Being harder by the virtue of gutting a fun feature can already sour an experience, and knowing it is likely to have you buy into the stamina system doesn't make things better.
@@tracyblanchard7663 its subjective ;) for example i found the slopes on the pot made the game way too easy like having stabilisers on a bike so what is gutting a fun feature to you is a difficulty balancing improvement to me so even though changes like that could of been intended just to make it harder to make more money it can also be seen as an improvement, like wiggled-dee doo darr nahh mean
@@Rockysbeats That's fair, though it doesn't really detract from the fact that many fans seem to agree it wasn't a good change for the game, especially since it was never a game that prided itself on difficulty. So while you can say it helped your personal experience, to say that it's only being panned because people are just mad at the difficulty is reductive at best. For fans of the series, the difficulty's not the fun part.
@@tracyblanchard7663people are not just mad at the difficulty spike alone they are mad because the old versions did not have any sinister micro transaction pay to keep going bullshit or adds popping up all the time, i still prefer blast because besides all the corporate downsides it still holds up much better then the other versions in terms of challenging gameplay, animation, music, sound, designs etc ;)
I feel this
Thanks for telling me, i deleted it.
peggle blast is not hard this is easy lol
Im here becase grayfriut said something about a pegle mobile game
Dont worry Leo, we'll get a real peggle game on mobile.... eventually...

I wanna play Roundguard but I have an android. 😭
It’s really not that bad

I love me some Peggle... but I would definitely not put it on the same level as Tetris.
Very much in agreement with most of this, but as good as Peggle is, Tetris it is not. Not by a long shot.
Peggle 2 sucks
This game is great, but it's a shame that EA ruined it.
popcap downgraded it
It's 2014 game. Calm down and maybe talk about 2020 games you barely mentioned...
