    Ehh, I felt like the X-Box 360/PS3 Monster Madness game to be a closer sequel (well, spiritual successor) to ZAMN, myself as it hit on more of the hallmarks that made ZAMN so memorable; ecclectic B-Movie enemies, wacky weapons, bizarre bosses, and a demented sense of humor with quite a few pop-culture references tossed in for flavor (Zack and Andy's Red vs Blue references when getting tanks later in the game were my personal favorites) and the very similar gameplay style just felt more ZAMN than Herc's Adventure.

    I found the title misleading. The second game was news to me but the herc game has nothing that says to me it's part of the same franchise. I can see why one might include it in a set of games but that would be the [insert game developer names] Trilogy *featuring* Zombies Ate My Neighbours. I enjoyed your history of Streets Of Rage and Golden Axe videos and I love the game Zombies, but the content compared to the title for this video is disappointing.

    That opening made me a bit sad. It made me realize that the once epic Star Wars Trilogy has been reduced to "just a set of old sci-fi movies" for those who didn't watch the original unaltered versions. Before the prequels stained them, those three really *were* something special.

    • @VicodinElmo
      @VicodinElmo 7 років тому

      jack squatt I don't mind the prequels. They're not perfect but they hold a certain place in my heart. Star Wars Episode I was the first Star Wars film I saw in the cinema. In fact, I'm pretty sure it was the first ever film I saw in the cinema. I loved it. The whole experience. I didn't care that Jar-Jar was an embarrassment to the saga. I didn't care that the script was dire. I didn't care that midichlorians ruined the mysticism of The Force. As a 25-year old man, I care more about those things from an objective viewpoint. That said, the nostalgia I feel for the prequels - particularly Episode I - makes it difficult for me to hate them.
      The problem was that most people saw the original trilogy first. Watching them in chronological order shows you how the galaxy morphs from this fun place of adventure with a functional (if bureaucratic) government and at the centre of it is this innocent kid. And we get to watch all that gradually get deconstructed over three films. By the time we start A New Hope, we know quite how much these characters have all lost.
      People forget the original trilogy wasn't perfect. Personally, I rank RotS, TFA and RO higher than it. I know everybody's personal Star Wars rankings are always going to be furiously smacked down by fellow fans but that's part and parcel of being a Star Wars fan. No one can really agree on anything...perhaps with the exception of AotC being generally perceived as the weakest. Most people I know do rank that at or very near the bottom.
      The funny thing about RotJ (which everyone sees as better than the prequels by default without really thinking about it) is that people forget how controversial the Ewoks were due to the way they contrasted with the tone of the rest of the trilogy - they probably wouldn't have been out of place in the prequels. We ignore that inclusion though because we've convinced ourselves that the original trilogy will always be superior just because it's the original trilogy. Then again, not objectively looking at sequels/prequels and relying on sentiment to enforce our opinions is hardly a phenomenon unique to Star Wars - it happens with gaming all the damn time.

      @jacksquatt6082 7 років тому

      This is what I was referring to in my initial comment: the idea that the prequels were equal or better than the originals, and the thinking that the originals were not actually freakin' amazing when taken by themselves.
      I'm not saying the original trilogy was perfect, but I *am* saying it had very few problems, the Ewoks probably being the biggest of them. Still, those problems were *nowhere* near as bad or as numerous as the ones in the prequels. I don't feel like getting into an argument about it though, and there are no doubt many places on the internet you could look to find better constructed monologues than I could make here. The guys at Red Letter Media come to mind, with their Mr Plinkett reviews, but if you're a Star Wars fan, you've probably already seen those.
      Another video you probably have not seen (because he usually doesn't make this kind of content) is the Amazing Atheist "Why the Star Wars Prequels suck". I found that quite interesting, because he managed to pinpoint a single problem with the prequels, from which most of the other major problems spiral outward from. I would recommend that video to any Star Wars fan, and to writers in general.
      However, while I see the prequels as inferior movies, there were some things I *did* enjoy. A lot of people said they didn't like the political/economic conspiracy stuff that cropped up in the second and third prequels, but I really enjoyed it. I also liked that we got to see these fantastic other planets at the height of the senatorial power. We got to see the Jedi order before it was eradicated, and that was pretty cool too. In general, it was fun to just revisit that universe, the look and the feel of it all, aside from the CGI characters.

      Star wars films in order of greatness:
      Rogue squadron--Superb, great effects, fast paced and good acting
      Return of the jedi-- Good apart from stupid teddybears
      1977 original--Good apart from the added cgi in the re-releases
      Disney reboot#1--Ok i guess, cant really remember much about it, which isnt good
      Empire strikes back--Pretty meh with boring yoda bits, AT-AT`s are cool though
      Disney reboot#2--Forgettable film with nice special effects, much worse than first reboot
      Holiday special--So bad its good, at least its entertaining in its weird awfulness
      The 90`s prequels --Fucking awful, full of boring dialogue and dreadful acting. The 3 films blend into 1 tedious ordeal. Good special effects though.

    Herc's Adventure was a great game that was derailed entirely by timing. It had the works: satisfying gameplay; appealing graphics; three different playable characters, with different playing styles; kickass character and enemy designs; kitschy tunes; a large, open world map; a decent challenge and a funny storyline.
    What doomed this title is it came out right around the same time as Disney's Hercules. The massive marketing campaign for that movie, complete with a licensed game release, totally overshadowed Herc's Adventure. I saw a kid hold up a copy of Herc's Adventure, for the PSX, and declare "that's not Hercules", before putting it back down. His loss was my gain, because I snatched it up right behind him.

    I don't know if there are so many zombie games because the world really loves Zombie's that much. I think it's just because zombies are such a convenient enemy in video-games. They don't need to explain where they come from, why there are so many of them, why they move in predictable patterns or do dumb things, or why they go take so many hits to go down. They're the easiest antagonist to utilize, aside from Nazi's.

      Ahhhh yes I was happy with how this one turned out :) and I too did not know of Herc's Adventure until I was tagged in one of those daily posts by RGG on twitter. It's a seriously good game. Unfortunately the Saturn version only came out in America, so unless you can import it I would say just go with PS1.
      It is also available on PS Network, but again... only in America! AAAHHHHHHHH

    Zombies Ate My Neighbors is one game in need of a remake or reboot. Add twin stick shooter controls...that'd be the only real change needed in the gameplay/control department in my opinion. (and of course an option to switch back to the classic control scheme)

    It was one thing when you say it's a trilogy, one game being developed as something elsr then getting an asset transfer, then you say Herc's Adventure is kind of a third game cause it's somewhat similar and shares most of the development team...You hadn't crossed the line until you said Herc's Adventure is a better game, with better gameplay AND a better soundtrack. ZAMN has one of the best soundtracks ever to date.

I was thinking it was Grabbed by the Ghoulies but that' an Xbox game. I swear the game had both a guy and girl characters to play as and I think there was a monster truck involved. Nevermind finally found it, Monster Madness. It's considered a tribute to the series.
