    Honestly man, loving the videos you are making, makes me want to try some new ps1 and ps2 titles and inspired me to actually 100% complete Timesplitters 2 and unlock all the characters properly for the first time. STILL arcade league makes me want to shit in my hands than clap constantly.. < Sad that really hey hahahahahaha

  • @RaeIsGaee
    @RaeIsGaee Місяць тому

    Fun fact; Surfing H3O's controls are Like That™ because it was sold alongside an actual mini surfboard that you were expected to strap horizontally to both controller sticks, so moving it up or down ""felt"" like turning the back of the board to steer. Even with the gimmick controller it still feels weird, but it intuitively makes much more sense than without it.

    @STARPHASE Місяць тому

    They just need to make a surfing game with a REALLY in depth career mode. Different tours, different 'leagues,' etc. It could be pretty cool. I could even see a game like Rider's Republic adding a surfing mode. That'd be dope, but probably not likely. I'd like to see a good surfing game be made. Currently there's a few out there, but they aren't good. Barton Lynch Pro Surfing looks worse than the Kelly Slater game. Virtual surfing looks better, but is still pretty lackluster and bare bones.
