Warning! Buying this game will cause many injuries such as broken controllers, bruises on your head, bite marks on your arm, causing your parents to wake up from their sleep in the middle of the night, crying, depression, and the most important thing of all..... Rage quit
Addendum- Most of us do not live with our parents. So too that list is having a full swat team at your front door because your neighbors think you are murdering people in your home. This of course means that you are screaming every known obscenity known to man and maybe, just maybe new words that have no meaning but at the time meant fuck this fucking cheap gam...I beat the boss, I love this game!
Tethys414 dang, i hope you enjoy cuphead and get flashbacks of your youth of when times was simpler and alot of cartoons ( if not all ) was hand drawn :)
After some complaints about difficulty, i hope MDHR Makes a "baby" difficulty available, and make it a joke with no bosses or enemies and no levels just run to the finish line. lol
The difficulty is spot-on and so well balanced. Everything is telegraphic and just requires you to memorize the pattern. I also like how each weapons have a distinctive use in certain situation. There's no worthless weapon (The first weapon is meh though)
obbly I would say your wrong but there is no good cartoons these days Cartoon Network a tv channel for cartoons only has reruns of one show Nickelodeon had nothing good Disney nothing because everyone wants money so they put as few thoughts and dollars to mindless children that stare at a screen never stopping nor moving or doing anything
i bet a drawing board with transculent center was used (to help animate like in the old days cartoon) it's nothing new really: draw > scan > tweak > animate. some artists just don't give a damn really.
There are plenty of gems in the rough! Still many gorgeous anime, rick and morty, indie stuff, gumball, etc, etc. There is A LOT of trash getting in the way of people seeing these though
I'm hella sad the music wasn't mentioned more because it's not just catchy it's actually probably the best game soundtrack I've heard. The jazz music fits perfectly and is extremely awesome, and I dig it a ton
I hope this game sells well, I mean it's not really my type of game but you can see the developers put a lot of care and love into it. They've also made it very challenging which a lot of games these days aren't really thought provoking or difficult. The art design is so 1930's cartoon style too and the music is great. I might pick it up but wish it had been released when not so many big hitting games I want is out at this moment
This is easily game of the year stuff....this game takes me back to the type of game play from the 80's and 90's where every time you beat a stage it was cause for celebration. As frustrating as it seems at times, one of the most original and satisfying games that I have played.
HAHA, i made fun of them on my latest video. They compared the game to dark souls, than proceeded to compare it to every other hard game in existence. Cuphead = every hard game ever made lol...
ninja of fire he also game pokemon 3/10 and said too much water And litterally every sonic game ever theyve said is bad but theyve given the actually shit ones 7.5/10 I think they just hate platformers that arent mario
bigcmlg I was wondering how he beat the frogs without the slot machine transition. Why bother with simple? I want my $20 game to last me a little while!
At least 7 hours unless you are a god? I am doing every level on regular difficulty and have easily 7 hours into it at 44% progression, did you play much of this game?
I think I'm at 50% and I've played like 2 hours (regular only). Thou I can almost do Metal Slug 1 on single credit (last level fucks me up) so I guess there's that.
Not even 2 minutes in and already marveling at how fucking well they nailed the animation style of older cartoons. Like, damn. Some serious love and study went into that.
This is a real HARDCORE game. Just like the old Run and Gun games for the super nintendo were. It is were it belongs. It HAS TO BE THAT HARD. It is meant to be in the same league as Contra, Battletoads and Turtles. Man I'm glad this game turned out this way even it had to be so long in development. It's for oldscool gamer who like to have the challenge and also for newer players to finally experience something like that for the first time in their lives. Only by making it so difficult you're getting the way it is meant to be played. Same as Dark Souls. If you would make the game have an easy mode it would destroy everything it stands for. And yeah actually cuphead has an easier mode but it's still challenging and hard enough :P
United Potatoes I remember being a kid and just endlessly repeating the first level of Contra, and thinking to myself, as a kid, this game isn’t for kids, this is for adults...
Me and my brother played the toads boss on simple, and were so pissed when we found out we had to play or on regular. We finally managed it though didnt get a single tiger on the slot machine part. Lots of the fights are won by pure luck.
Game of the year for me. Fantastic music, the levels are challenging as hell you feel cheated but in all honesty it's you who messed up. THE Bosses oh my I love the bosses every single one is so unique. Best game hands down
if you like cuphead, have you also tried hollow knight? that is also a really great game, kinda similar in a way by the looks of cuphead, kinda not, for me that is GOTY, its only 15 bucks, 10 on sale, with free dlc included. give it a go, i think you will be pleasently supprised
I'm about 5 hours in (just a bit into the third isle) and I'm still loving the game, the difficulty spike was a bit off putting at first but once you start to really get into it the game is really fair and incredibly fun, I would recommend it
I love the segment after you lose a battle that shows just how close you were to beating the boss and "crossing the finish line". I think I actually prefer this to a standard on screen life bar that depletes during the battle itself. It adds more tension to the boss fights when you feel like you're so close to winning and just have to hold onto that last hit point for a few more seconds...it also keeps you from focusing on checking that near-empty life bar instead of the action at hand.
Regular is a good difficulty level, Simple is for when you can't be bothered to actually learn how to play and just want to win, anything easier would be a joke.
That isn't entirely true, beating a boss on simple opens up the map a bit more, so you could get past a more difficult boss to get to a run n' gun stage and gather coins or visit a shop for better gear.THEN you could come back with a different weapon or charm and shove the win down that FUCKING GENIE'S THROAT.
all the gear in the game isn't better, it's diferent. The base weapon is one of the best, and the smoke bomb (wich is your first charm) is by far the best. so after the first run'n'gun you are ready to finish the game fully prepared
If my experience with weed is the norm, then I would have to disagree. I tried playing Overwatch when I smoked for the first time; I didn't even know where the enemies were half the time.
This game rocks! It's like perfectly made for us who grew up with Contra or Contra III, rather. Back in the day when if you wanted to beat the game, you had to work for it, goddammit! It's still more forgiving than those classic games, giving you the option to retry right away, instead of only 3 continues, then back to the start. I think that if they implement an easy difficulty, they'd just give you like 3 lives per level, and keep the difficulty as high as possible.
It feels much harder than DS3 to me also. I'm stuck on the 3 headed dragon, phase 2 is just annoying to me. Although sometimes I feel the game can be cheap at times, being unable to get yourself out of some situations.
Actually, the smoke bomb is objectively the best charm, since it makes the dash massively more effective for avoiding damage, and allows you to skip past certain sections of the run n gun levels, especially the mini bosses at the ends of some of them. You can beat Treetop Trouble in less than a minute by just dashing through the last guy at the end and landing on the final platform.
I pirated it then deleted it, Its an amazing game. I only won the 1st level but refused to continue, these developers really put a lot of effort into this and I honestly plan to buy this on PC when the online co-op drops
Ricky Spanish that's good of you dude, these devs actually deserve the money, there also an indie studio. and same, I want to play online coop with my friends. Can't wait till they drop online mode.
Honestly one of my all-time favorite games. 100% on co-op & Solo. Co-op took me and my buddy I’d say a week or two. Totally challenging, loads of fun. Then I went back and beat it again on solo, but because I had the muscle memory from the previous run, it was surprisingly a lot easier. 😅
I know this game is an exclusive to Xbox and PC, but this game would be perfect for the Nintendo Switch. I have both consoles, but bringing this on the go would be fun, especially with the two Joy-Cons to play with someone else
My gods how I love this game, It's so different from other "Rage" games, this game...is so hard to be mad at....so freaking beautiful, the hand-drawn art, the music, the mechanics...all of it, I love that it shows you just how close you got to beating a level or boss, There is just something about this game that makes me so happy. It's little doorway to a world where things are crazy and unpredictable and I am in love. But then again, I always did love those types of things. lol.
Last night I completed the game. I played the entire game by myself, and it was SO rewarding. I’ve been playing it for about a week, and I raged so many times, but I just pushed through it. Definitely recommend!
lakamokolaka He definitely knows there are 2 modes, you have to SWITCH OVER to easy mode when you start a boss. If he didnt know he would be playing it on the defualt normal mode.
I think most, if not all, of the footage in this video is pre-release stuff. The big flower boss, whos name i forget is much simpler in this footage than the finished game on easy mode. The ooze boss is using the pre-release footage background as well.
Major Clay He was making a joke about that game reviewer who took like half an hour to beat the tutorial. This reviewer looks like they actually enjoy video games.
Honestly this game is really enjoyable and fun, not to mention just how vibrant the colors are. The game is super enjoyable yet at the same time challenging. I play this game by myself and I had to go through the first level at least 7 time before I beat it. Very challenging but still super fun.
The problem with the keyboard is the 8 way aiming. I will never get used to it. I also keep forgetting that you cant run, shoot and jump at the same time
Uncle Don I play it on the keyboard and I manage to beat the game pretty easily, but on the controller I suck pretty bad :/ its a matter of getting used to it
I play on PS4 and even though I will probably play this on PC, I am really glad it its an exclusive for X Box, this "Console war" needs to be a little more even in order for us to keep getting quality games on both PS4 and X BOX
is not anti consumer, if you create a console and you help creating a game (either producing it or in house development ) you have all the right to make it exclusive, it is just how business work
+FreeKeKistan or how about you stop being entitled to games cuz you are not. games are a luxury not a necessity. they made the game they keep it, would you like it if you invented something , and people forced you to give you're inventions away. exclusives are not anti consumer. the stupid arguement of "they are holding those games hostage to force you to buy their platform" no one is forcing you, you can easily live without playing those games. if you really want them then shell out the cash, and stop whining.
"Right to make it exclusive" That is not an argument against anti-consumerism. "If you create a console and you help creating a game" That is not an argument against anti-consumerism "It's just how business works" That is not an argument against anti-consumerism. Exclusives are anti-consumer. When they are purposely implemented, then they are discusting business practises that should not be accepted.
The Coolest I know it's it's a fun game instead of praising the great graphics and unique pink pickup system problem is "TOO HARD" always the case in all reviews and when people talk about it.
BellowD Gaming I haven't seen anyone have a problem with it being too hard except gameranx, and literally everyone is praising its art style and gameplay, I get what you're saying, but I don't see anyone doing what you're saying.
Vincent Schelhaas Since you mentioned PewDiePie, we shall just wait comments from people that hate him. There will be someone who will reply to that: ''pewdiepie is cancer'' etcetera
Andrew Ryan xbox 1and ps4 are practically the same thing, just with exlusives here and there. This game is only on xbox because PS4 has a larger fanbase, and dont want them shitting on thier game.
Nadir Bait Saleem try and play it on someone else's like your friends pc/Xbox.Split the money half half or just pay for it all if they're not sure bout the game.Then play through the whole thing 2-player.
I'm loving it so far! I just made it to area 2. I'm playing it alone but it looks so much fun on co-op! I worry about online co-op because of the speed of gameplay but I'm excited for it. I've been really scared about upcoming surgeries and it's been great to have that enjoyment of improving at the game every time I play.
I get pretty upset with hard games, but that is because I hate being cheated, and too many games make themselves hard in that wrong way. Cuphead is different. The way I described Cuphead is like chess: Chess isn't hard because you have one king and all the rest pawns while the other player has all queens; chess is hard because it takes skill and an understanding of the game to play. It's hard, but it's very fair.
So I’ve been playing by myself and I was trash at it at first, but now I think I’m really good at it! I beat all the run-and-gun levels on Pacifist, beat all the bosses with an A rank, found all the coins, and bought everything in the shops. I’m gonna start an Expert play through soon as well
there is replay value to it like trying to get an S on every level, right now im trying to get a P on all the runandguns so i can unlock the black and white mode
Everything is top notch except the amount of content. You should try it. On steam you can refund it before playing it for 2 hours. This is beyond the quality we have seen in games for years.
Gabe Grant Better than Dark Souls, in some ways. FromSoft has a nasty habit of reskinning bosses to pad the game while this game has a bunch of unique bosses.
I am playing on pc by myself and JESUS it is difficult but the feeling when you finally beat that boss you were trying to beat for an hour is unrivalled by any game I have ever played before it.
I'm sick of people complaining about xbox exclusives when playstation also has a lot of exclusives. Shut up already. That's how business works. Go buy a damn xbox and be happy.
t o So, in that sense, iconic games like MegaMan are mediocre because the game mostly consists of dodging projectiles and shooting from the right side of the screen?
Cuphead better than The Last of Us. An actual original masterpiece, with great gameplay, not some dilapidated cliche ass interactive movie with a cheesy predictable narrative we have seen a million times. Bout time.
EElectric_M And yet people still use TLOU as a reference for the quality of ANY game. Must mean something.... I mean even you who apparently hated it, are comparing Cuphead to it. You must be a closeted TLOU fan. Be honest. The hardest part is admitting. 🤣😉 More seriously I am not telling that TLOU is the best game ever. I can understand that some gamers did not like the gameplay. And I can understand that others absolutely loved the story and the characters. But I find that funny that even those who did not like TLOU, admit, at least on some level, that that game is one of a kind. I mean we never hear/read "well, that game is better that Ride to Hell: Retribution". 😂😂
I get what your saying you're against the modern era of AAA games that focus on graphics and immersion rather than old school games that were actually challenging and had learning curves. Modern AAA games aren't even really 'games' when you think about it in the technical sense, because games are supposed to be challenging and have goals unlike certain modern titles. Many modern games cater to kids' ADHD where it's more about wandering aimlessly and doing random shit in an open world with no end goal.This is why video games originated from table top board games due to the simplest games always having an objective that was challenging to complete. Examples of real games wherr gameplay is focused on objectives includes titles like cuphead, contra, pac-man, Madden, tetris.Modern console games have gameplay that is more focused on wandering and doing pointless activities such as in GTA.
Uncharted just uncharted4 i i trust the people that say it has a good story but idc im for gamplay and its lame for me i ve play it on hard and it was boring and cutscence dindt care just skip them well atleast i dind buy the game i got it sharet
Jeremiah Hunter « games are supposed to be challenging »..... I disagree. All gamers are not the same, they don’t want the same thing from gaming and that is why there are so different kinds. Some want games to tell them an intricate story, so they will play story-driven games like TLOU or Metal Gear Solid. Some want to relax and have some fun, so they’ll play titles like Mario Odyssey or The Stanley Parable. Some want to role-play in a big world with amazing lore, so they will play Mass Effect or Persona 5. Some want games to be different and they will play Journey or Hellblade : Senua’s sacrifice. Some want games to let them be creative and they will play Cities Skylines or Minecraft. Some like games with challenging puzzles, so they’ll play The Witness or Professor Layton. I could go on and on. Games are « supposed to be » entertaining. It depends on what you think is entertaining. I mean somebody who likes to play Overwatch, doesn’t play Alien : Isolation. Or maybe they do. Who knows? And that’s good. Thank God. We are not the same. Modern gaming has a lot of shitty flaws (cough microtransactions cough) but you can’t deny that it’s a great time to be a gamer when you think about the fact that whoever you are, whatever you like, there is a game for you.
I’ve been playing this game since it came out and I’ve tried co-op and single player and I prefer single player because I’ve noticed that with co-op the bosses health are almost doubled
How to confuse your grandparents
My grandma is dead :')
You got that from Sir Swag
already happened with my mom, lol she was like "What.. are you doing?" "That's crazy"
My mom was like what cartoon is that and I said it's a game, she said

Thunder Kat Please let this be a true statement. I laughed out loud reading this.
I heard the tutorial level is boss.

I know right!!
Couch Co-op not online multi-player
Don’t forget, no DLC!
exactly
This game is brutal af. That first plane stage, Threatenin' Zeppelin, took me so many tries but damn it felt good to finally win
Steve G awesome! It's so satisfying to beat a stage you've spent ages on!
That is just the tip of the iceberg my friend. Enjoy your victory for now, because I know a certain robot that is going to kick your teeth in!
Same
I used 3 hours yesterday to complete one bossbattle with my friend
Just like old school games, it's awesome.
Warning! Buying this game will cause many injuries such as
broken controllers, bruises on your head, bite marks on your arm, causing your parents to wake up from their sleep in the middle of the night, crying, depression, and the most important thing of all.....
Rage quit
i haven't rage quit yet...or done anything out of anger, I just say "god dangit" and try again

I'm a 60 year old grandfather and I'm digging on cuphead!
Awesome!!
A game from a simpler time
Play it tethy! It's worth it!
Animation style from even before your time.
Tethys414 dang, i hope you enjoy cuphead and get flashbacks of your youth of when times was simpler and alot of cartoons ( if not all ) was hand drawn :)
Just came today for Ps4. I’m sooooo gonna buy that.
Now on PS4, you are welcome
@@Strider-yn9hs they literally said that
Do it, its awesome
Stupid hipster
Don't get it on PS4 there is input delay
After some complaints about difficulty, i hope MDHR Makes a "baby" difficulty available, and make it a joke with no bosses or enemies and no levels just run to the finish line. lol
I want asset viewer mode JUST SO I CAN KEEP HAVING EYE ORGASMS.
So the difficulty levels will be:
Game Journalist
Simple
Normal
Expert
Jose Luis Esquivel I hope they make the next one harder!
The difficulty is spot-on and so well balanced.
Everything is telegraphic and just requires you to memorize the pattern.
I also like how each weapons have a distinctive use in certain situation.
There's no worthless weapon (The first weapon is meh though)
Jose Luis Esquivel a baby mode? Come on man. Remember the old days of Zelda or Metroid? It was just the game. Play it until you master it.
Cuphead before you buy:
Don't be a video game journalist
hey no n
Stop
DansBLACKFLAG Did i miss the Polygon gameplay? I think i did.
Beautiful game. Makes me painfully aware just how bland animation has become these days.
obbly I would say your wrong but there is no good cartoons these days Cartoon Network a tv channel for cartoons only has reruns of one show Nickelodeon had nothing good Disney nothing because everyone wants money so they put as few thoughts and dollars to mindless children that stare at a screen never stopping nor moving or doing anything
Matthew Andrews I know :(
i bet a drawing board with transculent center was used (to help animate like in the old days cartoon)
it's nothing new really: draw > scan > tweak > animate.
some artists just don't give a damn really.
There are plenty of gems in the rough! Still many gorgeous anime, rick and morty, indie stuff, gumball, etc, etc. There is A LOT of trash getting in the way of people seeing these though
I'm guessing you've never seen Gumball then.
Heads up for anyone playing on Simple Difficulty: From what I've seen, you're missing out on the final transformation of the boss fights.
And you can't progress without beating the boss on regular
Yeah that's the difference they get rid of one stage ( the root pack get rid of the onion instead of the carrot)
Slickcracker low quality b8. Nobody will watch it.
nice self-promo
My copy of the game must be glitched or something, The only difficulty options I have are "Regular" and "fukn noob"...
I'm hella sad the music wasn't mentioned more because it's not just catchy it's actually probably the best game soundtrack I've heard. The jazz music fits perfectly and is extremely awesome, and I dig it a ton
DakotaDoesIt it was mentioned tho lol
Have you ever heard of hotline miami? (Probably not) that is the best game soundtrack I've ever heard this is pretty good though I do have to admit
It is at 3:29
Undertale?
Mayellman no
I hope this game sells well, I mean it's not really my type of game but you can see the developers put a lot of care and love into it. They've also made it very challenging which a lot of games these days aren't really thought provoking or difficult. The art design is so 1930's cartoon style too and the music is great. I might pick it up but wish it had been released when not so many big hitting games I want is out at this moment
FALCONHOOF I actually ended up pre-ordering it the night before it's release 😂 definitely worth it.
Ultimate Buzz! I just love the art style of this game
FALCONHOOF Yea I'd heard it was only that price 👍
DiamondCrust Productions It's brilliantly done and very unique
I'd say put one of the "big hitting games" on hold and buy this one. Don't regret spending a single penny on it.
This is easily game of the year stuff....this game takes me back to the type of game play from the 80's and 90's where every time you beat a stage it was cause for celebration. As frustrating as it seems at times, one of the most original and satisfying games that I have played.
3:45 Why tho.
if metal slug and disney had a baby
TBH this game is harder than metal slug
Contra / Merry Melodies love child
It is... and its hella hard. I played around 2 hours and still at 20%ish percent done
yep \ö/
If metal slug and *fleischer had a baby
"Some of us don't really have nearby friends"
Translation: "Some of us don't really have friends"
Luke Jones no he means friends that play cuphead
No one near me speaks my language.
You can put a controller in someones hand next to you on a couch regardless if they "play Cuphead" or not. lol
Dad: Are you winning?
Me: **listen here you little shit**
Ign gave it one out of ten because they couldn't finish the tutorial.
HAHA, i made fun of them on my latest video. They compared the game to dark souls, than proceeded to compare it to every other hard game in existence. Cuphead = every hard game ever made lol...
You can't spell "ignorant" without IGN...
The only reason I would compare this to dark souls would be learning the patterns of bosses
ninja of fire he also game pokemon 3/10 and said too much water
And litterally every sonic game ever theyve said is bad but theyve given the actually shit ones 7.5/10
I think they just hate platformers that arent mario
GhostlyGoo shameless plug
He was playing on simple lol.
IK
Benjiizus things don't actually really go slower in simple, you just skip the final stage of the boss and have less shit on the screen
Its slower for your heart
So THAT'S why the bosses seem different.
I also saw a different background to Goopy Le Grande?
Was that simple or Xbox? (I play it on Steam)
bigcmlg I was wondering how he beat the frogs without the slot machine transition. Why bother with simple? I want my $20 game to last me a little while!
At least 7 hours unless you are a god? I am doing every level on regular difficulty and have easily 7 hours into it at 44% progression, did you play much of this game?
I mean speedrunners can be under and hour
I thought their was a hair on my screen 😂
I think I'm at 50% and I've played like 2 hours (regular only). Thou I can almost do Metal Slug 1 on single credit (last level fucks me up) so I guess there's that.
I beat the game in 9 hours idk what ur saying plus he's playing on simple just goes to show he's bad
Gaming Culture lol
Now that this game is on PS4, time to watch "before you buy" after I bought.
Lol Same!! I was so excited I scooped it up quick!
IKR
Me at this moment
Yep
It's good fun and only 20 bucks.... what else can u buy for 20 dollars today? Pizza? Jake says pizza is on him. So go buy cuphead.
Bill Dude sonic mania
Gerald The Seal nah
That's some expensive pizza.
It’s only $20?? I assumed it would be $60
For the amount of effort they put in this game I'd expect at least $45.
Not even 2 minutes in and already marveling at how fucking well they nailed the animation style of older cartoons. Like, damn. Some serious love and study went into that.
This is a real HARDCORE game. Just like the old Run and Gun games for the super nintendo were. It is were it belongs. It HAS TO BE THAT HARD.

Battletoads wasnt hard...
United Potatoes also it pushes you no do the harder difficulty since you can’t progress without doing it
United Potatoes Stop comparing any difficult games to Dark Souls.
I read this comment in the voice of Duke Amiel du H'ardcore.
United Potatoes I remember being a kid and just endlessly repeating the first level of Contra, and thinking to myself, as a kid, this game isn’t for kids, this is for adults...
Cuphead? Don't you mean
*CUP SOULS*
stop
SPEGHET
It's nothing like Dark Souls, it's just hard.
Omg im dead
Kim Jong Un I
If this looks hard to you.. you should know that in this video it was played in the Easy difficulty.
FenriS to be honest it looked kinda easy lol but I haven't played it so idk
Algis Barysas its a "easier than it looks" game
FenriS you can tell because the bosses don't do there last form like the toads don't become slot machines
Me and my brother played the toads boss on simple, and were so pissed when we found out we had to play or on regular. We finally managed it though didnt get a single tiger on the slot machine part. Lots of the fights are won by pure luck.
Its not pure luck its whether or not you get the attack you can fend off easier
This game looks fucking awesome
Alec Wilson it is worth 20 dollars
Game of the year for me. Fantastic music, the levels are challenging as hell you feel cheated but in all honesty it's you who messed up. THE Bosses oh my I love the bosses every single one is so unique. Best game hands down
God damn it man, Game of the Year is a HARD choice this year. Too many great games have come out and are COMING out.
Dark Dodgers I've waited for this game for years man! And it was every that I wanted and more. For me at least it is the game of the year
Felix Paz agreed it's like a modern metal slug
lol try Zelda and Horizon then
if you like cuphead, have you also tried hollow knight? that is also a really great game, kinda similar in a way by the looks of cuphead, kinda not, for me that is GOTY, its only 15 bucks, 10 on sale, with free dlc included. give it a go, i think you will be pleasently supprised
I'm about 5 hours in (just a bit into the third isle) and I'm still loving the game, the difficulty spike was a bit off putting at first but once you start to really get into it the game is really fair and incredibly fun, I would recommend it
Well if it isn't my old pal Jake!
Christian Studios Jake paul?
Simple Geometry no
finn and jake one?
Danold Duck what?
opps my mistake
I love the segment after you lose a battle that shows just how close you were to beating the boss and "crossing the finish line". I think I actually prefer this to a standard on screen life bar that depletes during the battle itself. It adds more tension to the boss fights when you feel like you're so close to winning and just have to hold onto that last hit point for a few more seconds...it also keeps you from focusing on checking that near-empty life bar instead of the action at hand.
Regular is a good difficulty level, Simple is for when you can't be bothered to actually learn how to play and just want to win, anything easier would be a joke.
That isn't entirely true, beating a boss on simple opens up the map a bit more, so you could get past a more difficult boss to get to a run n' gun stage and gather coins or visit a shop for better gear.THEN you could come back with a different weapon or charm and shove the win down that FUCKING GENIE'S THROAT.
all the gear in the game isn't better, it's diferent. The base weapon is one of the best, and the smoke bomb (wich is your first charm) is by far the best. so after the first run'n'gun you are ready to finish the game fully prepared
anything easier is a goldmine for me
Tyler Krueger I feel your pain man the clown is worse tho
Clearly you have never played the game
"Some of us don't have nearby friends"
- Sad violin playing in the background.
I can hear it
This looks like a great game to play when you’re high
Lobster with Mustard and Rice too much going on at once to be fun
it is!
Lobster with Mustard and Rice I played this high as a kite, borderline traumatized me
If my experience with weed is the norm, then I would have to disagree. I tried playing Overwatch when I smoked for the first time; I didn't even know where the enemies were half the time.
I must be smoking some shit weed compared to you guys. Only way to game is stoned for me.
This game rocks! It's like perfectly made for us who grew up with Contra or Contra III, rather. Back in the day when if you wanted to beat the game, you had to work for it, goddammit!
It's still more forgiving than those classic games, giving you the option to retry right away, instead of only 3 continues, then back to the start. I think that if they implement an easy difficulty, they'd just give you like 3 lives per level, and keep the difficulty as high as possible.
Already bought! ITS EPIC! Music and graphics are so goood, and the game is more difficult than dark souls 3, trust me I've played it too.
It feels much harder than DS3 to me also. I'm stuck on the 3 headed dragon, phase 2 is just annoying to me. Although sometimes I feel the game can be cheap at times, being unable to get yourself out of some situations.
Dizionario i new to dark souls
I'm curing my souls fatigue. Its a really amazing game.
damien Those situations you can't escape is probably just the RNG factor of some of the enemies attacks
Dizionario lol
Came back to watch this before I buy it for my PS4
Me too
Sorry Jake, I bought it before your before you buy and I love it
Antonio Trejo lol same
Same 💓
Antonio Trejo first time for me to buy a game before before you buy is out
The art style reminds me of semi old Mickey mouse and Donald Duck cartoons, got that nostalgic feeling
Daniel Solbrekke that's the point
and he is missing it!
You mean Bimbo the dog and Betty Boop. Disney came after with different anymations
This comment reminds me of something Captain Obvious would say.
Daniel Solbrekke I hate this comment alot
I am from the future, this also comes out on PS4
This game out now? I can’t find it on PS store
Frank Castle Look harder
Conner 1234 will do
It’s on the front page in all caps for me
Everyone: beats game in 7hours
Me: 'played for 60hours or more'
Same
I complete 1 level in 1 day......fuck this shit
Someone did it under 23 minutes
Your lack of parrying hurt me personally.
Parrying takes risk lose health trying to parry it while there's a thousand different things happening around you it's very hard for some people
How do you parry? o.O
That's why p sugar is best charm
Actually, the smoke bomb is objectively the best charm, since it makes the dash massively more effective for avoiding damage, and allows you to skip past certain sections of the run n gun levels, especially the mini bosses at the ends of some of them. You can beat Treetop Trouble in less than a minute by just dashing through the last guy at the end and landing on the final platform.
GhostlyGoo ya slap things lol
I pirated it then deleted it, Its an amazing game. I only won the 1st level but refused to continue, these developers really put a lot of effort into this and I honestly plan to buy this on PC when the online co-op drops
Ricky Spanish that's good of you dude, these devs actually deserve the money, there also an indie studio. and same, I want to play online coop with my friends. Can't wait till they drop online mode.
Ricky Spanish good job man!
FFORR REAL IM PLAYING THIS BYMYSELF CAUSE I DONT HAVE FRIENDS SO IM WAITING FOR ONLINE TO PLAY WITH MY FRIENDS ONLINE THIS GAME IS SO GOOOOOOOOOOD
Ricky Spanish You could only beat the first level?
DevilWaffle nah he played the first level and went " I want to aupport this game so ill buy it 4 real" and deleted it
"you'll put a good 7 hours of gameplay into the game!"
day 13, I'm not even half done the second world.
Have you finished the second world yet
Ohhh same damn I felt that I still bashing my head against the wall on that *D A M N R O B O T*
*controller
50 minutes and game already done
A YEAR AND I STILL HAVEN’T BEAT CUPHEAD.
Honestly one of my all-time favorite games. 100% on co-op & Solo.
Co-op took me and my buddy I’d say a week or two. Totally challenging, loads of fun. Then I went back and beat it again on solo, but because I had the muscle memory from the previous run, it was surprisingly a lot easier. 😅
Anyone else too hyped for Monster Hunter and Code Vein?
Cuphead looks good too.
Ilias A. Code vein is basically Tokyo Ghoul meets Dark souls
A new FromSoftware game would be awesome too.
MH yess but code vein looks just meh
super hyped for Monster Hunter, Metro Exodus and Shadow of War, i have played Dark Souls but i just dont like Code Vein
So glad we are getting an actual graphically good looking Monster Hunter.
This game almost makes me want to buy an Xbox...
Almost
Chris Higgins 😂
Well what about PC, why dont you just play on there?
just get it on PC. I can run this game perfectly on my shitty laptop so most people should be fine
Chris Higgins As long as your PC is from this decade you should be fine.
Why not get this on a PC? My laptop isn't even high end and the game still runs great.
I know this game is an exclusive to Xbox and PC, but this game would be perfect for the Nintendo Switch. I have both consoles, but bringing this on the go would be fun, especially with the two Joy-Cons to play with someone else
AngelPlayzStuff wait wrong comment
That's what I said!
I have a Switch and I disagree. It would be too expensive throwing it on a wall instead of a controller. ;)
AngelPlayzStuff not to mention that Cuphead and Mugman look like colored joycons.
Ox King 😂
My gods how I love this game, It's so different from other "Rage" games, this game...is so hard to be mad at....so freaking beautiful, the hand-drawn art, the music, the mechanics...all of it, I love that it shows you just how close you got to beating a level or boss, There is just something about this game that makes me so happy. It's little doorway to a world where things are crazy and unpredictable and I am in love. But then again, I always did love those types of things. lol.
This game looks perfect for the switch.
Too bad it's not coming for the switch
Patac Luminita I bet everything looks perfect on the Switch to you. Be happy with what you got man.
Pilot Bt7274 it’s not impossible for this game to come to the Switch, INSIDE was an Xbox exclusive and now it’s on Switch.
Finn the Mudfish I just think that this game looks like a perfect fit for the switch.
Finn the Mudfish Uhhhh maybe he only has a Switch? Come on, man, he was just voicing an opinion.
I'm tripped out I pressed on a different before you buy and another one uploaded
I bought this game yesterday at 11pm and seriously guys it took me 5 hours to get through the mouses in ship!!
Tooo difficult and fun
Last night I completed the game. I played the entire game by myself, and it was SO rewarding. I’ve been playing it for about a week, and I raged so many times, but I just pushed through it. Definitely recommend!
this preview is the game on easy mode... you can tel because the frog bosses skipped the last phase
I don't think he realize there are two modes simple and regular already before he did the video
lakamokolaka so he manages to not notice the difficulty seletion screen? wow 😲
lakamokolaka He definitely knows there are 2 modes, you have to SWITCH OVER to easy mode when you start a boss.
If he didnt know he would be playing it on the defualt normal mode.
and you can not unlock new worlds in simple mode.
I think most, if not all, of the footage in this video is pre-release stuff.
The big flower boss, whos name i forget is much simpler in this footage than the finished game on easy mode. The ooze boss is using the pre-release footage background as well.
Buy it please don't waste such a good potential for a sequel.
VALLY completely agree*
pretty smart
VALLY it's gonna take years for a sequel
VALLY It took them 10 years to make this game. It will be 2030 by the time Cuphead 2 comes out.
I wouldn't watch an old school cartoon that looks like this, but I would be willing to play one.
Is he playing on simple
Owen Kayton yep
Owen Kayton yes
Owen Kayton yup...
*sigh*
Obviously by the way he talked about difficulty. Also flower boss you can see its simple 100%. Casuals...
EVEN IN EASY MODE THIS GAME IS DIFFICULT AND FRUSTRATING TO ME :((((
THERE SHOULD BE BABY MODE :)))) SO I CAN ENJOY AND FINISH THIS GAME :)
Looks like a new castle crashers, looks awesome! Been dying for a game like this, will be buying asap
HEHEHE IM AM A SUPAHSTAR WARRIA single player.
Amirul Harith ???
HEHEHE IM AM A SUPAHSTAR WARRIA insane mode is soooo difficult man on castle crashers
How are you reviewing it already? I heard the tutorial by itself took hours!
is that GLaDOS on your pp?
nice
The tutorial is like 30 seconds
Major Clay He was making a joke about that game reviewer who took like half an hour to beat the tutorial. This reviewer looks like they actually enjoy video games.
Joe Doe lol this reviewer was playing it on easy and still whined about the difficulty being too much. Pathetic.
only if you play on Dean difficulty
Honestly this game is really enjoyable and fun, not to mention just how vibrant the colors are. The game is super enjoyable yet at the same time challenging. I play this game by myself and I had to go through the first level at least 7 time before I beat it. Very challenging but still super fun.
I have 12 hours on this game with 550 deaths and im only on wordl two.
Thats why you dont use a keyboard.
The problem with the keyboard is the 8 way aiming. I will never get used to it. I also keep forgetting that you cant run, shoot and jump at the same time
Uncle Don I play it on the keyboard and I manage to beat the game pretty easily, but on the controller I suck pretty bad :/ its a matter of getting used to it
I'm on world 2 and I have over 1.5k deaths...
Kelsee wiley HOW. You played the game for too much time lmao
im at world 0 and have 1 deaths
i still need the game to continue
I play on PS4 and even though I will probably play this on PC, I am really glad it its an exclusive for X Box, this "Console war" needs to be a little more even in order for us to keep getting quality games on both PS4 and X BOX
finally! thanks
luis suarez How about we stop encouraging greedy anti-consumer practices and have every game comes to every modern system that can run it?
is not anti consumer, if you create a console and you help creating a game (either producing it or in house development ) you have all the right to make it exclusive, it is just how business work
+FreeKeKistan or how about you stop being entitled to games cuz you are not.
games are a luxury not a necessity.
they made the game they keep it, would you like it if you invented something , and people forced you to give you're inventions away.
exclusives are not anti consumer. the stupid arguement of "they are holding those games hostage to force you to buy their platform"
no one is forcing you, you can easily live without playing those games. if you really want them then shell out the cash, and stop whining.
"Right to make it exclusive" That is not an argument against anti-consumerism.
"If you create a console and you help creating a game" That is not an argument against anti-consumerism
"It's just how business works" That is not an argument against anti-consumerism.
Exclusives are anti-consumer. When they are purposely implemented, then they are discusting business practises that should not be accepted.
Contra was release decades ago no one complained how difficult it was, Cuphead was release in the new millennium "IT'S HARD!"
BellowD Gaming It's not a complaint it's a compliment, people are loving the fact that it's hard and are often making comparisons with it and contra.
The Coolest
I know it's it's a fun game instead of praising the great graphics and unique pink pickup system problem is "TOO HARD" always the case in all reviews and when people talk about it.
BellowD Gaming I haven't seen anyone have a problem with it being too hard except gameranx, and literally everyone is praising its art style and gameplay, I get what you're saying, but I don't see anyone doing what you're saying.
The Coolest
lurk more ;)
BellowD Gaming I'll do so
I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEE this game! This takes me back to when games were hard and took skill to beat.
Alex O they still do...
Alex O I don't remember the kirby games needing skill....
Than try super ghouls and ghosts.
Very far and few between.
'While some of these bosses might piss you off and you'll think it's bullshit' Hahahahaha I lost it when he said that 🤣😂🤣
The 1930's animation looks lit in my opinion
Hard game = just like darksouls
The Gaming Snake ikr the comparison to dark souls can get kind of annoying, especially since it doesn't make any sense.
Pewdiepie reference!
The Gaming Snake ZERO DEEEEEEEFS!!!!!!!
The Gaming Snake dark souls ain't that hard when you grind, and roll.
Vincent Schelhaas
Since you mentioned PewDiePie, we shall just wait comments from people that hate him. There will be someone who will reply to that: ''pewdiepie is cancer'' etcetera
That moment when the game title ironically fits the thumbnail
"...it's only on Xbox..."
Well, now it can be played anytime, anywhere on the Switch. Seems like someone heard your complaint.
Now its on ps4 haha
@FMONEYFMONEY FMONEY thats y I’m watching this video lol
The8bitdin0 lmao right
Switch is actually a bad console
Obama Cone I respect your opinion and see where you’re coming from but I like switch
What do you mean xbox exclusive? *checks psn* HE'S right! NOOOOOO
Ryan Bissonnette lol sorry but PlayStation sucks in general..
JvstEvan wow...
Andrew Ryan xbox 1and ps4 are practically the same thing, just with exlusives here and there. This game is only on xbox because PS4 has a larger fanbase, and dont want them shitting on thier game.
+JvstEvan What sucks about it?
JvstEvan Stop making the rest of us xbox players look bad fanboy!!!!
Now I just need my rule 34 cuphead.
Darkness Prevails Wow, not only do you get top comments but you're also early!
Well good news for you there's tons up already
Bruh first why
2nd how are you everywhere
im not sure if im comfortable with that
Thats what jaltoid is for.
I've been watching TheRadBrad play it and it seems awesome!
If it was on PS4 I would DEFINITELY buy it!
It is not on ps4 only xbox. :( I have a ps4 and am upset.
Nadir Bait Saleem try and play it on someone else's like your friends pc/Xbox.Split the money half half or just pay for it all if they're not sure bout the game.Then play through the whole thing 2-player.
Nadir Bait Saleem not s ps4 its a xbox x , im playing it on pc
Sean Watts Moore Good idea but unfortunately I don't live close enough to my friends + none of my close friends have an Xbox One.
buy it on pc get DS4windows play the game using a ps4 controller call it a day
I'm loving it so far! I just made it to area 2. I'm playing it alone but it looks so much fun on co-op! I worry about online co-op because of the speed of gameplay but I'm excited for it. I've been really scared about upcoming surgeries and it's been great to have that enjoyment of improving at the game every time I play.
Is he tea or water?
Edit:thank you for giving me 100 likes and thank you gameranx for loving it
sanic the hedgehog Milk, I think.
sanic the hedgehog milk
or cofe
Milk.
Wine
I'm not getting this game due to my anger issues.
good idea
NinjaWalrus i can support this
XD
Just buy a few extra controllers. You'll be alright.
I get pretty upset with hard games, but that is because I hate being cheated, and too many games make themselves hard in that wrong way. Cuphead is different. The way I described Cuphead is like chess: Chess isn't hard because you have one king and all the rest pawns while the other player has all queens; chess is hard because it takes skill and an understanding of the game to play. It's hard, but it's very fair.
Sorry, but how can there be a "before" you buy when this game is an *_INSTA-BUY_* ???
THEMrFill this game doesn't even look interesting.
Typical Noob living up to the name
typical noob everyone has thier own opinion?
Venom Art yes, you're correct. that's why i have a different opinion from most people.
Typical Noob totally agree...
My opinion is this game is worthless :3
So I’ve been playing by myself and I was trash at it at first, but now I think I’m really good at it! I beat all the run-and-gun levels on Pacifist, beat all the bosses with an A rank, found all the coins, and bought everything in the shops. I’m gonna start an Expert play through soon as well
'you can put 7 hours of fun in it' i've been at ING for 13 hours now and still at world 2 -_-
Bjorn Wow, i beat it in 10, still longer than 7
7 hours is the normal average for a game of this length, it doesn't really take hardness in to factor
Bjorn I've died over 160 times and haven't beaten 1 boss on World 2
DevilWaffle at the moment i have died 400+ times in 12 hours of playing
there is replay value to it like trying to get an S on every level, right now im trying to get a P on all the runandguns so i can unlock the black and white mode
So far this looks like a strong 4.5/5 game!
MrDjBigZ looks like someone didn't have his fucking Wheaties in the morning.
IGN 8 - not cod
Lol xD
Everything is top notch except the amount of content. You should try it. On steam you can refund it before playing it for 2 hours.
This is beyond the quality we have seen in games for years.
1. Is hard
2. Has bosses
3. Is a game that exists
Guys...
it's just like Dark Sous
ALL HALE THE LORD TACHANKAKANKA!!!!!!!!
Gabe Grant but not at all
Literally Dark Souls 4
makes you think
Gabe Grant Better than Dark Souls, in some ways. FromSoft has a nasty habit of reskinning bosses to pad the game while this game has a bunch of unique bosses.
I am playing on pc by myself and JESUS it is difficult but the feeling when you finally beat that boss you were trying to beat for an hour is unrivalled by any game I have ever played before it.
I'm sick of people complaining about xbox exclusives when playstation also has a lot of exclusives. Shut up already. That's how business works. Go buy a damn xbox and be happy.
No. Just buy. No "before".
RoomerJ Yep ☝️
RoomerJ But the game is mediocre AT BEST. Gameplay consists of dodging projectiles shit from the right side of the screen
sigh, do you even know what boss rush is lol
t o
So, in that sense, iconic games like MegaMan are mediocre because the game mostly consists of dodging projectiles and shooting from the right side of the screen?
t o Game is amazing. Phahahahhaha. This dude has no idea what a good game is.
Cuphead better than The Last of Us. An actual original masterpiece, with great gameplay, not some dilapidated cliche ass interactive movie with a cheesy predictable narrative we have seen a million times. Bout time.
EElectric_M
And yet people still use TLOU as a reference for the quality of ANY game. Must mean something....
I mean even you who apparently hated it, are comparing Cuphead to it. You must be a closeted TLOU fan. Be honest. The hardest part is admitting. 🤣😉
More seriously I am not telling that TLOU is the best game ever. I can understand that some gamers did not like the gameplay. And I can understand that others absolutely loved the story and the characters.
But I find that funny that even those who did not like TLOU, admit, at least on some level, that that game is one of a kind.
I mean we never hear/read "well, that game is better that Ride to Hell: Retribution". 😂😂
I get what your saying you're against the modern era of AAA games that focus on graphics and immersion rather than old school games that were actually challenging and had learning curves. Modern AAA games aren't even really 'games' when you think about it in the technical sense, because games are supposed to be challenging and have goals unlike certain modern titles. Many modern games cater to kids' ADHD where it's more about wandering aimlessly and doing random shit in an open world with no end goal.This is why video games originated from table top board games due to the simplest games always having an objective that was challenging to complete. Examples of real games wherr gameplay is focused on objectives includes titles like cuphead, contra, pac-man, Madden, tetris.Modern console games have gameplay that is more focused on wandering and doing pointless activities such as in GTA.
Uncharted just uncharted4 i i trust the people that say it has a good story but idc im for gamplay and its lame for me i ve play it on hard and it was boring and cutscence dindt care just skip them well atleast i dind buy the game i got it sharet
Jeremiah Hunter
« games are supposed to be challenging »..... I disagree. All gamers are not the same, they don’t want the same thing from gaming and that is why there are so different kinds.
Some want games to tell them an intricate story, so they will play story-driven games like TLOU or Metal Gear Solid.
Some want to relax and have some fun, so they’ll play titles like Mario Odyssey or The Stanley Parable.
Some want to role-play in a big world with amazing lore, so they will play Mass Effect or Persona 5.
Some want games to be different and they will play Journey or Hellblade : Senua’s sacrifice.
Some want games to let them be creative and they will play Cities Skylines or Minecraft.
Some like games with challenging puzzles, so they’ll play The Witness or Professor Layton.
I could go on and on. Games are « supposed to be » entertaining. It depends on what you think is entertaining. I mean somebody who likes to play Overwatch, doesn’t play Alien : Isolation. Or maybe they do. Who knows?
And that’s good. Thank God. We are not the same. Modern gaming has a lot of shitty flaws (cough microtransactions cough) but you can’t deny that it’s a great time to be a gamer when you think about the fact that whoever you are, whatever you like, there is a game for you.
@samantha clyde totallllly agree!!! comparing this game to tlou is kinda apples and oranges, tbh
I. Came to watch this because it just released on ps4 I never thought this day would come!
I would get it but I don't have any friends to do the couch co-op with me.
I also don't have a couch.
More like "before you die"
rust bolts no
Cuphead over Bendy and the Ink Machine any day
Bendy and the Ink Machine is such a dumb game. I don't get why it's so praised when the story and gameplay is so god damn stale.
Nooby Weeb true lmao
TheGameDeviant yeah Bendy is too short the episodes are way too short. I want to get cuphead. I hear great things about it.
Does Bendy in the ink Machine even have a combat system?
I like both, and yes Bendy and the Ink Machine has combat
Hey gameranx I just got cuphead on my pc and I've been having a tough time but it's just so fun I can't stop playing.
I’ve been playing this game since it came out and I’ve tried co-op and single player and I prefer single player because I’ve noticed that with co-op the bosses health are almost doubled
this would be good on the nintendo switch
Yaaaaaaassss!! Nintendo buy the licence plz we need our revenge
Eli M ha nintendo peasent
The guy who made the game said it would Xbox/PC exclusive i saw
Its an xbox exclusive, nintendo can't just "buy" the license lmao
Eli M nah wouldn’t run as smoothly also would be downgraded
I am joining to wait for the Xbox One X and play it on that
hey me too!
why would u get the xbox one x.
Jeeroy Lenkins
Why not I guess?
I bought this game before watching this video and I’m gonna go play it now it looks amazing
4:30 hold my beer
Wdym?
No mention of Dark Souls anywhere. 10/10 review would watch again
You sure about that
Can’t wait to play this on my Switch
I ADORE this game. I'm not the best at it, but Cuphead is dripping with so much character that I can't put it down.
It's currently 2023. I'm posting a comment on a five year old video. Whatever. I just, finally beat Cuphead. On Expert. It's cruel.
