![[OLD] THE NEW WORST GAME EVER MADE - Caddicarus](/img/n.gif)
I feel sorry for the kids who got this fucking shit for christmas. rip
Dayum, I feel ya man, I'm grateful I played games like pac man world and sonic heroes as a kid. (In fact I knew nothing about Phoenix)
Meh too
Actually, I got dalmations 2 for christmas when I was a kid. After playing it for some time and sleeping through most of the cutscene, I've decided to send it back to where it belong, my garbage can that is. It's terrible even with my standard back then
This is the new device to torture children, even if you say it's a game for kids, the main target is to torture children.
Luckily, I only ever got one thing from Phoenix Games, and it wasn't for Christmas...
From what I've looked up, and I may be extremely late for this, apparently Phoenix Games suddenly declared bankruptcy in 2009.
Good
I looked up that they had 26 games. 26 GAMES! Thank the Lord they lost the money. If your gonna make a game that takes 3 or 5 months, at least make a (as I like to call it) a quick play game fun for the family!
+harry fisher that's how many they developed they published MANY more
No shit. They suck.
khfan4life365 They do, and I'm glad they're gone.
The people of Phoenix Games need to go to jail for ruining childhoods and for charging money for this garbage.
Con artists
To be honest I've never played a bad game Oney good ones. In lucy
@Johusep Lopez
If someone is uninformed and dumb enough to actually buy shit like this, they deserve it.
I might be late to this but even I wonder if this studio is actually a front for money laundering
Pretty awful aren't they?
“Whereas Phoenix games need a mere 3-5 months.” That shouldn’t be a selling point at all
since i talk spanish im gonna translate the part in 11:50
in the cover it says: "animal soccer world" includs: animated movie, puzzle, color the book, memory game.
in the back of the game says: all its prepared for the biggest event of the year, the futboll game that everybody expected its going to beggin the fc wild dogs its going to play against the sv lion rock, the trainers of both teams still think in the positions of the players, today is the big day, the game its going to start, let the better team win.
thats the best translation i can do of this shity game cover...
I hoped it was a kids football game. But it was another shitty interactive type of game.
harry fisher this game is made by satan, still glad someone readed my translation n.n
Anusmal Sucker Balls
That is now the name of the Title
Que Mierda...
Thank you, Spanish human!

I'm from Germany and I feel the urge to apologize for this game :D
Don't worry, I don't think anyone will force "collective guilt" on the Germans for the making of these games.
gantzisballs Yeah, we're all still in collective guilt for the holocaust and stuff. I don't think this game will make the situation worse.
Yes, that would be the joke.
Danke schön. We feel sorry for you.
Not your fault
Apparently, these discs only used just under a tenth of the total capacity of a PS2 disc and the discs themselves were so weak they could get warped and broken easily. This along with the obvious mockbuster undertone should technically qualify these games not just as shovelware but as bootlegs.
How did Sony license these disasters? Were the executives held at gunpoint or something?
They were probably gonna make a quick buck. You suprised? Also they used the cd format which was sort of popular for ps2 games.
A minute of silence, for my poor brain cells that died during the viewing of those cutscenes.
Turns out that Dingo didn't always give permission for their stuff to be used. Although they still make stuff, they mostly focus on corporate advertising now, probably because of Phoenix's behaviour.
Interestingly enough, most of the titles that the 'games' (read: Shoddy Animations) were given completely different titles by Phoenix, probably so they could avoid copyright with Dingo.
EDIT: Had Phoenix never gotten involved, Dingo certainly wouldn't have gained the infamy it now has. Looking at its website, it seems to really be a small company who stopped making anything significant years ago.
EDIT: Also, Phoenix wasn't British originally, it was Dutch. It just so happens that most of their 'games' didn't sell well outside of Mainland Europe, and so they moved production of the discs to the UK instead.
7:46 OK, I am not a soccer expert, but I am pretty sure you can't do that in the soccer.
Voltorb1993 you mean football? (I'm a proud Brit)
You can't do this in football, but this game is about soccer, which seems to be a hybrid between basketball and handball.
Mr Blonde [Houston] no
should be called "animal gaelic football world"
You got love when their first-person shooter is literally called “SHOOT” how redundant can’t wait for a platformer called “JUMP” and also a fighter game called “FIGHT”
And i can't wait for a visual novel titled *READ*
And a movie called "MOVIE"
i can't wait for the next fire emblem game... *GRID*
These games are pure insanity.
That makes two thousand of us.
So the animation wasn't even done by Phoenix and was done by a piss poor German company? Jesus guys!
Ultimate Kars Dingo Pictures
fuck it being done in germany it looks like it was done in some shitty eastern european country, hand drawn in the back of a wrecked lada being pulled by a horse
Daddy Kars
I think he already knew that
one little thing i have to say: the "yee" meme is from italian version of "Dinosaur Adventure" by "Dingo Pictures" and "Pheonix Games" bought licences to use those movies by "Dingo Pictures" and that's why you see them
I actually started laughing nervously during that loading screen, after seeing the MB total. I was terrified of what I was going to see after it loaded, if it was having that much trouble.
***** I was expecting a jumpscare after the "Wait for it..."
Actually, Dingo Pictures also animated short films for German clothing shops and they were played in a child corner. The animations were pretty much as shitty, but I knew that I recognise them from somewhere.
Lovely video btw, as always
My mom gave me a video game from phoenix games for christmas in 2011. what should I do, I still have it.... Burn it?
The commenter Try to find the nearest waste recycling center.
The commenter Destroy it by using the Kamehameha move!!!
Now I got an used ps2 with 5(!) Phoenix games. I guess I should burn them
Watch the videos and hope to make a meme as successful as YEE
Take a shotgun and blow holes in it
I think in German Class we watched a movie from Dingo Pictures - It was awful and I fell asleep.
Are you from Germany? Because from what I gathered from these comments, Dingo Pictures is used a lot in Germany, I went to their site too and nearly got radiation poisoning from looking at it, how it's used for advertising and whatnot... )x
Please tell me it wasn't Wabuu
We mostly watched German dubs of preexisting films. There was this one film I presume was originally made in German about an autistic boy who becomes friends with a horse, but that's about it.
Im crying because i had animals soccer world and dino adventure on ps2 when i was a kid
Sensei Shedletsky And I have Downhill Slalom on ps2. also made by phoenix games.... help me
Here’s a hint
Throw them into the incinerator
Has there been any lawsuits from Disney?
Mokibo I doubt it. Phoenix Games keeps too low a profile. If Disney could, I'm sure they would've sued them.
Or it would be a waste of time on Disney's end.
But apparently, Phoenix Games went defunct a few years ago. (For good reason, too.)
+The Eagle Not just Disney, Don Bluth should slaughter Dingo Pictures too, because Dingo Pictures did some horrible cartoons that are mockbusters of a few Bluth films.
The Eagle I'd laugh if Mickey Mouse went to Phoenix games with a gun I'd so watch that film
Go for it, I don't mind.

wow, pheonix games are games you get bored really fast, like I mean games like new super Mario bros, had mini games and more content in that. Pheonix game should've game called "pheonix minigames and animation", even Zelda cdi is better than this.

Anonymous11243 You old dictator >:V
D:
Allow me to educate you on the Phoenix Games assembly line.
Step 1: Horrible movie is produced by Dingo Pictures.
Step 2: It is dubbed to Engrish and given to East-West Video.
Step 3: East-West releases it on DVD.
Step 4: A company called the Code Monkeys buys the DVD, rips the video, and takes a couple screenshots to put in their coloring page/slide puzzle minigame templates.
Step 5: The "game" finishes "development" and it is sent to Phoenix Games.
Step 6: They sell it to parents who can't tell the difference between 101 Dalmations and Dalmations 2.
Honestly, London Cab Challenge makes Sonic '06 look like GOTY 2006. A GAME SHOULD NOT DO THAT!
No.no. There's a worst game than sonic 2006 (I actually like 2006, IMMA eat my popcorn in a minute) sonic boom rise of lyric.
Yep! "London Cab Challenge" is even worse than "Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing".
@@Musicradio77Network Its stupid because when Sonic Adventure came out they used REAL pictures as textures and it worked perfectly for a game of that time...... It would of not taken any effort for LCC to do the same thing
So I'm almost 22 and I don't drink. I find it a nasty habit. However, these "games" make me want to raid my dad's liquor cabinet and find the most potent drink available. FFS!
these games make getting drunk look like helping the homeless
... oh wait getting drunk IS helping the homeless 🤣🤣🤣
The saddest part abut this, is that ann indie developer team (that sometimes involves only one person) does a 10x better job than these people by today's standards. Look at games like Undertale made by Toby Fox. Fez by Phil Fish (as much e hate him) was made by one person.
One Person MAKING a Indie Game=Greenlight to Steam=Makes a Big Fanbase.
Yup.
*cough cough* MDickie *cough cough*
Konami: We'll fire kojiima and make pachinko machines and slots for casinos.
EA: We'll make shitty sports games with mcrotransactions, and assimilate and kill off game companies.
Pheonix games: ASSET FLIPPING
This is the most funniest review I've seen. You did a great job ripping those mockbusters from Dingo Pictures apart. Not to mention you also tore Phoenix Games a new one (no wonder they were never released in the U.S.). Not to mention I love the part that you said about the cast of characters from "Animal Soccer World", which made me laugh.
I honestly jumped when he showed that image from Dinosaur adventure!
WHAT THE F(yay)CK IS THAT?!
no. i know the refference. Dynasty Warrior's HORRIBLY HILLARIOUS english dub. XD
Claudio Teixeira i.ytimg.com/vi/kxDmGhPkEyM/hqdefault.jpg "Yee"
You didn't have to show me more! ;3;
+Claudio Teixeira He's Oro, the teacher of that green dinosaur with a red puppy dog nose. The way they design Oro like this, that'll give kids nightmares, due to having a horrendously deformed face like that.
HOLY JESUS, WHAT IS THAT?! WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!
These games are like I'm receiving experimental therapy for psychological conditions caused by these games.
DX I found a UA-camr who hates Phoenix games as much as you. his name is Tennings. also, you should review Daemon Summoner
What about Caddicarus?
Pokemaster2016 I watch him too
What about Phelan Porteous?
I found a guy called Smiggiles who has done a few videos on phoenix games
why did I post this
"3-5 months to make a quality game up to standards" LOL. Action 52 had about 3 months to its development time as well. It's clearly a quantity over quality business model.
3:53 That "What The Fuck" sounded so confused and dissapointed at the same time
This company makes LJN look brilliant
Or my archenemy, Data Design Interactive.
Stuff like this is an amazing antidote to my impostor syndrome, thank you very much.
4:38 so that’s where that meme came from
A UK developer, named after a Greek mythological creature, works with a German company named after an Australian wild dog? These guys are all over the place!
Am I the only one that mis-read the title as "Phoenix Wright." I seriously go pissed until he said "Phoenix Games." -facepalm-
Linnah Eeve Haha, don't worry. I'd get pissed too, I'm a huge Phoenix Wright fan.
Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney has become my life now
I thought that too
Haha, same! My UA-camr username and profile pic is one of the characters from Phoenix Wright. I was kind of shocked but I wanted to see his reasons why and then I re-read the title and completely flipped out.
Same, I got so pissed until I read it.
You don't consider "Plumbers Don't Wear Ties" a video game, and yet you consider Phoenix Games' things as video games?
I don't consider any Phoenix Games/Dingo Pictures "thing" a video game. It isn't interactive enough either. It's just a disk of a movie with games on it. It's like saying that a DVD with games on it is classified as a video game.
Yes. I find the interactivity of Phoenix Games garbage (aside from their actual games like London Cab Challenge, and w/e the fuck that game with the white vans is) strong enough to warrant them being called video games. I used to have a rule where if "it" could be played on a DVD player, I wouldn't consider it an actual video game. Then I realized you can play virtually every visual novel ever created on a DVD player and abandoned that ideology. Plumbers Don't Wear Ties is more of an interactive film to me and therefore doesn't fit my definition of what a game is or should be.
DXFan619 I still don't consider them games, just movies with games on the disks.
***** Honestly can't argue against that.
They've not video games. They are abominations of the worst kind.
A British game company with the name of a creature from Greek mythology that contracts a German animation company with an Austrailian name that has games that like they were animated by sleep-deprived Filipino workers on speed in a Korean sweatshop.
I did a double take on that song at 7:30. That language... is Dutch. It literally translates to "Here we are with all of us, having a good time, we're going to play a bit of ball, it's going to be a good match". From this point the accent and intonation of the voice actor clicked with me: that accent is 100% Dutch. And terrible.
7:46-7:52 Is he DRIBBLING the soccer ball?
I just noticed that!
Holy fucking shit... those Animal Soccer World cutscenes... I never laughed so fucking hard in my entire life, in fact I have a hard time writing this comment right here because of it!
Oh, by the way, "Polizei" is actually a German word, which translates to, well, "Police"
Same, I was laughing my ass off when I made this! And yeah, I knew about Polizei.
DXFan619 Do you know how animal soccer world was made? It's pretty impossible to make something terrible as that
DXFan619 Just be glad they went bankrupt.
Xiristatos I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry. It was that bad.
Ah yes, the origin story of the squealing nurse goose.
"Uh ee uh ee uh ee uh ee uh ee uh ee!"
Lion King on Acid holy shit......
Jack Doe more like Lion King on crack
DRAG QUEEN GANG MEMBER DUCKS are now a meme. Thats what this game left behind for me. Also the "dinosaur head"
The ducks are a meme too 😂
Way to go, Phoenix. YAAAAYYYY. Your games are some of the best I've ever seen. Amazing cutscenes. Great controls. I especially love the lack of music and the sound effects.
(You can almost smell the sarcasm, can't you? XD)
I am suffocating on the pure amount of sarcasm.
Never knew Italy was sarcastic. Huh.
Hodan Osman I can be if I feel like it. XD
You call that sarcasm?
PH0ENIX IS DU BUST CUMPENY DAT MEKE GR8 GEMES 8/8
How's THAT for sarcasm so?
J1984 (Julian.1984) True, true...and Phoenix is also a great example of what NOT to do for anyone who wants to make games.
All but two of the really REALLY shitty game companies are still up and running today, Kemco and Accolade. Kemco today currently publishes JRPG games while Accolade only exist as an in-name brand that was acquired by a Hong Kong based company.
lol, have you notice the same piece of music loops in animal soccer world and even when other music plays it stays in the background and never EVER stops?
Although I do like his new Style, Old DX is always good to come back to.
Dude you need to be hired by gamespot or IGN or TGN for honest game reviews. You are fucking hilarious.
The voice actor of animal soccer is probably dutch, because the song they sing before the match is in dutch. It goes like: "we're here everyone, it's gone be great. Let's play some football, it'll be a great match
You really deserve much more subs, you're like angryjoe in the making 💪✌️
That animation is fucking hilarious, i bursted out laughing when i saw that 3-frame running
All your videos cheer me up with laughter thanks man
The voice acting at the end!😂😂
Mufasa clone: what's going on.... who do we have here? lmao this is so funny
I absolutely lost my shit at the "Mufasa" cutscene. You're the greatest reviewer of videos games ever. Keep doing what you do.
6:41 wHAT
There are even more Phoenix Games "games" that you should review:
Peter Pan
Snow White and the 7 Clever Boys
American Pool
Iron Chef
7:36
This.
this is it guys, you cant make something worse and at the same time so hillarious
It's so funny how almost all the minor characters are from other "games" they made (Wabuu the Raccoon, Dalmations, etc.
4:37 "Yee."
Animal Soccer World hurts my entire soul just like ride to hell games because of the voice acting is a son of the worst i've ever encountered in my whole life even generations of gaming
I have the same problem as you.
yeah true
Super Genji They are not the biggest abominations the biggest will be these racing games like CrazyBus, Desert Bus or Big Rigs and makes me sad whenever I think of them. They ruined the game industry as possibly as they can and even I can do better, seriously.
yup no doubt about it, that day, lots of unfinished game also worst dating simulators like plumbers dont wear ties, that one i can remember how bad that game was
Speaking of Ride To Hell, did the other two games even come out? (Let alone get to the development stage)
4:08 Is-i… Is that a fucking Kiki's Delivery Service ripoff?
I can't believe these games exist...how they haven't been sued for ripping off characters from Disney movies and The Land Before Time is beyond me, btw great review! :)
That last part, when DX played Animal Soccer World..holy jesus christ..it was hilarious to watch!
I could imagine when this was released in their release days, and Phoenix Games deceiving you into playing a Disney game
The ONE guy that made five nights at Freddie's one and two did a better job than Phoenix games did with all their games
The people who made Maymay Run did a better job than Phoenix "Games".
I'm sorry to say it, but I still don't like Five Nights At Freddy's, it's gameplay is extremely shallow... -.-
It's still better than these games though, obviously...
He even did a great job in the voice acting department haha. Very fun and terrifying games. These Phoenix games are just scams.
Five Nights At Freddy's is a very simplistic game but that had thought put into it, Phoenix Games just made turds of no value gameplay to speak of with terrible outsourced animation that look like shit
I really dont even consider these things as video games. They are just beyond that
Mhm indeed….
You gotta admit though, That super mario world athletic theme for London cab driver was kick ass though
Phoenix Games was the Digital Homicide of the Late PS1-Early PS2 Era.
Phoenix games reserved themselves a special place in hell
Congratulations Shinji! You made it into a hidden frame!
Well, I guess the congratulations depends on your perspective...
I think anyone could do better voice acting for this game.
"After this I stopped because my eyes started bleeding."
What was that Athletic remix? It sounds like a MIDI.
Dude!!! i've been watching your games i f*cking hate and there so f*cking hilarious! you are so funny dude! XD
I'm pretty sure that Dingo Pictures didn't make the mentioned Mulan movie. I've watched a review of that movie, and it's animation (even though it is terrible) is far too good for a Dingo Pictures movie. Also, they regularly recycle characters, music and backgrounds in all their films, but I couldn't recognize anything in the Mulan movie from any of Dingo Pictures' "works".
This video is a certified hood classic ❤️
Phoenix Games a LJN of this generation..................
LJN is actually just a publisher for smaller, independent developers.
+MrWhatdafuBOOM yeah and take account that LJN managed to make one good game ultimate spider man for the snes
+Jason Miller They didn't make it, they published it for sale.
+MrWhatdafuBOOM Still it was good enough to give them some credit on their company
phoenix games were just publishers as well so yeah it doesn't matter whether they made it or published it
It's like I discovered an entirely unknown kind of nightmare. I should've never watched this video. *shivers*
So.... I saw the Shockmaster image you placed. His debut entrance was less screwed than ANY of these games. XD
Blast games are clearly worse
4:38 I'm laughing so hard I can't breathe XD what the fuck is that!?!?!
Yee.
11:20- Looks like Digital Homicide beat that record
I love your channel. I couldnt agree with you more with this company/games. They were so bad I couldnt even finish the video you made cause im still in tears lmao
Thanks! I had a blast making it.
If I have to put my ear close to the speakers to hear the voice acting........something is wrong.
RedAsHalo Wear headphones. My videos aren't leveled best for speaker systems.
DXFan619 i am using a headphone, and i cant hear them very well.
+SuperKratosgamer Why would you want to? :(
chibidark321
Haha! to laugh?
SuperKratosgamer
Is it even worth that? The unending pain :D
They basically have the same characters but different names and stories
Yeah back in the day I swear it seemed like nobody could see how bad the games were that 989 studios were shifting out,they were absorbed into its parent company I think
Good review; these literally rotted my mind. I subbed because of this.
Only a minute in and i'm ashamed to find out that the developer was from the UK. Oh well we don't always have the worst video game developers, case in point - Rare and Rockstar Games.
U mean dma design, rockstar games is based in USA mostly
@@claudespeed277 DMA Design got rebranded as Rockstar North in 2002.
I miss Rare and Nintendo being together. Banjo Kazooie and DK64 were the shit.
I have a suggestion: you should review shovelware games for the Wii such as Ninjabread Man, Anubis II, M&M's Go-Kart Racing, and others.
Oh God, Ninjabread Man, lol. I'll definitely try to do this in the future!
"But, WE have to talk about ANIMAL. SOCCER. WORLD!" - I died. Lmfaoooo!
The goose nurse in animal Soccer World sounds like somebody is scraping a bow across violin strings
Crazy Taxi on the dreamcast looked better than london cab driver.
***** London Cab Challenge is a cheap knockoff of Crazy Taxi.
Correction: Mulan was not a Dingo Pictures Movie. There was a book by them but not a movie. as seen on German Wikipedia de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dingo_Pictures or the dingo pictures wiki. BTW: Phoenix Games got also a wikipedia entrance in germany. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_Games
You're videos are awesome. Subbed
Some of Dingo Pictures' movies were also distributed by another super-budget game company, Midas Interactive.
The running animation for animal soccer world made me laugh so hard
Looks realistic to me
boy, i dont wanna finish this vid, it is too insufferable.
but, suscribed.
Hey, what's the name of the song playing during London's Cab Challenge loading screen?
Fffffuuuucking HELL those cutscenes are awful. I missed this review as it's one of your older ones, DX, but I think you really showcased the worst Dingo has to offer.
