7 Times Minigames Were Harder Than The Final Boss
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 тра 2024
- Minigames are meant to be a break from hard games - but these examples didn’t get the memo. Here are 7 times minigames were harder than the final boss. From impossible arcade games to nightmare rhythm games, this week’s Friday Feature is about big challenges in small packages. How many of them have you played?
If you scoff at the idea of a nightmare minigame then you’ve clearly never wrestled with the higher levels of blackjack in Red Dead Redemption 2 or tried to take home the trophy in Journey of the Prairie King. And spare a thought for people trying to conquer Kingdom Hearts’ Ice Cream Beat or Dead Space asteroid shooting. There’s nothing mini about these challenges.
And if you’re only just joining us, yes the Friday Feature is back. A new list feature every Friday at 4pm. Check out Rob’s recent ponderings below…
7 Dilemmas Only Married Games Will Understand • 7 Dilemmas Only Marrie...
7 Videogame Weapons We’re Too Scared To Use: • 7 Videogame Weapons We...
7 Brutal Bronze Trophies That Could easily Be Gold: • 7 Brutally Hard Bronze...

Hello, You've caught me absolutely loving that these Friday features are back!
Same
Still can't believe it ❤😂
It's too good! The dream would be the onesie getting back too!
Hello You've caught me agreeing with you!!!😂
They are the absolute best imo. Game on gamers. Be good to each other out there.
Man seeing Rob say “Hello you caught me….” And the trumpet starts playing in the background hit something deep inside me. I needed this back in my life, I don’t care what the list is about I just need Rob’s voice about anything video game related and that music. Could be 7 title menu that let us know we’re in for a treat and I’ll still hit watch faster than lightning.
I 100% agree, I don't want to take away from other hosts wanting to do their lists but Rob is just A PART of PlayStation for me at this point, PlayStation Access in its entirety is the best thing to exist when it comes to building a community from any developer, The content is fantastic, the personalities are engaging and lovely, and Rob's Friday Features are a key aspect I think of the whole channels success
7 title menus would be pretty sweets. I mean 3-4 leap to mind and I'm always ready for more. 7:43
Same i missed these
Same.
Rob, Dave, Rosie, Dan, Nathan... and Delsin.
PERFECT FRIDAY FEATURE!
Ah mini games. They can be a delight or a pain in the rear. I definitely prefer the former but as a completionist gamer I unfortunately have to deal with both
Before watching this video: "This list could be 7 minigames from FF7 Rebirth alone"
I enjoyed the minigames. Fort Candor was a blast!
@BaajAnima I love Fort Condor and Queen's Blood. The only mini game I've had to rage quit is the piano. I just can't do it. Why did they have to make the sticks the way to control the notes?! Why?!
@madalice5134 Yeah, the piano was a challenge. You definitely have to make sure you adjust the speed of the lines. Otherwise the lines won't be in sync with the music. You can get some nice materia but not good enough in my opinion for the time and effort.
That line about letting Sephiroth destroy all life had me rolling! Like it's so relatable if you have ever felt that wrath inside! Lol!
I keep coming back for more of Rob's writing. We joke how he's not the best at CTR, how he rages in every single game he plays. His writing is impeccable, erudite, and well thought out. I need more please Rob!
Nates in a box to stay fresh
7 Signs Friday Features are Back
1. You get insanely excited for Friday!
2. You start grouping things into sets of 7
3. You start missing fictional characters - Rob’s mum, Plat man, Mystic Mike, Dan
4. You wish you had a small puppet sidekick
5. You start drinking Dr. Pepper
6. You learn the word penultimate. hint: it’s not what you think
7. You start every conversation with “Hello! You’ve caught me…”
You get excited about bodies of water
The PS Access team feel fresh and fun again. ❤
I don't think I have ever met someone that thinks penultimate means something else than what it means. You only ever encounter it in a context, where it is somewhat easy to figure out what it means, even if you haven't heard it before.
*"Farming" There's a reason is one letter away from HARMING."* I laugh so hard at that😂
Phantom Menace Dan back on camera & around 20% of Nath. I bet Rosie had a blast playing Yakuza dress up.
Two words - Flappy Goat.
That mini game is the reason I still don't have the Goat Simulator platinum. Such an infuriating mini-game that one.
Definitely. I got the plat, but don't mistake that for me bragging about my skills in the game - it was a combination of pure luck & stubbornness.
WHAT'S IN THE BOX!!? Apparently, Nathan and another Friday feature! Never stop making these! Happy weekend, everyone! ✌️😇
Woah, spoiler alert!
Having the Friday Features back has helped me get through the worst third trimester ever. Thank you team Access. ❤❤
Rosie being able to bang out all those individually distinct character voices was very impressive!
The Queen of Cards.
This thing is rage-quit built directly into the game. FFVIII takes this crown, spins it around its finger, and pops it on its head at an angle while flashing you a cocky grin with all of the mouths on its cover.
Nath's head in a box was like something out of a Suda 51 game 😂 (Killer 7 etc)
For me, thus far anyway, it’s gotta be the squat challenge from Final Fantasy 7: Remake. While an iconic mini game in a game filled with iconic moments, the Remake version of the Squat Challenge is especially difficult since you actually have to have a sense of rhythm to do the squats. You can’t just press the buttons in order like in the original game, you actually have to press them in time with the movements. I was practically screaming my lungs out at how frustrating this mini game was after my dozenth attempt at trying to beat Jules on hard difficulty. XP
The squats weren't that bad as the button prompts always had to be pressed in a circular order. The pull ups in chapter 14 and the sit ups from Rebirth however can go die in a hole.
Good luck with Rebirth mate
@@inferknowingfrank Oh i already did it. It just took me a couple of days worth of attempts to finally get it. The pull ups took me a whole week lol.
I'm so thrilled that the Friday Feature is back. I literally dropped watching the channel during the hiatus. ❤
I got Final Fantasy IX's "Hail to the King" trophy. It took five days of practicing and experimenting, but I got there in the end. Never again, though! 😣
Rebirth. All those god damn mini games broke me. Moogle mischief is the one mini game I actually enjoyed.
I did not enjoy it but it was not hard either, only the last one I failed a few times.
I enjoyed a lot of rebirth mini games but hated the moogle one 😅
3d brawler last 3 (Ifrit, the middle manager, and Sephiroth) are total BS.
hello, you've caught me
im a fish
Now I’m imagining the fish head news anchor from SpongeBob making a cameo, and I thank you for that.
hello, you've caught me
im a cold
Someone needed to vent about the FF7 Rebirth minigames. I love Stardew.....but I heard that the creator regrets putting in the Junimo kart quest to get 50,000 points in endless mode (it's evil).
...I am so happy FridayFeature is back! I'm going to rewatch them all again
The Chocobo dodge game in FFX to get the celestial item is my pick. Those damn birds!
It's been said so many times I was glad to see someone ignore it for once.
This one was definitely hard and annoying af🤣
Finished that on my first try playing my third playthrough. Saved that playthrough, haha. I might have gotten bored and moved on to other games if I didn't, to be honest. Blitzball was always pretty easy for me. But the one thing I never had the patience for is the lightning dodging.
I always found Blitzball fun and yeah I could never get through the lightning dodges or jump rope from ff9 no matter how much time I sank into it.
@@scotthart134 Yeah, the jump rope was too much. I've always tried it for some 10 minutes at the start of every playthrough with a mindset of "This time I will do it!", and getting disheartened very quickly.
Loved the Friday Features being back!!! Makes my weekend!!!!
Ice Cream Beat....took me weeks, now I NEVER have to play it EVER AGAIN at least.
It looks like you guys are just genuinely having fun with these! It's a joy to watch, love all the skits and and Nathan camio 😂👌 Rob's writing has only gotten better over the years.
That kh bbs minigame gave me whiplash, holy crap it was annoying.
Agree so much with the Stardew one! Also love that you guys are making Friday Features again, I’ve watched the channel for years (started around when FFXV came out) and the features have always been a favorite.
A Friday Feature, with a Kingdom Hearts segment, a Nath cameo AND a Dan cameo?! Christmas has come early this year!
I lowkey love how they put one of the most modest looking outfits on Eve for the stellar blade clip 🤣
Thank you sir for bringing these Friday features back. The comfort food of list videos. Your like the friends of playstation channels.
God bless you, I'm not religious but it's the sentiment that counts, I think.
I have sorely missed these, good to be back.
Friday features being back are just what you need at the end of a long work week
A Dan sighting, Nath in a box, and 6 Persona Rosie...aaahhh what a treat!
Doing Friday Features every week must feel a bit like a minigame harder than a final boss - Great work, Rob!
And yes Gambler 8 challenge in RDR2 is a coin flip whether to continue or not haha
Omg Journey of the prairie king is horrendous. Glad the Friday features our back
the blasted card games in EVERY Final Fantasy game
Rosie's silly montage of Yakuza mini-games was amusing. :D
Also - Ugh, Fire and Sword: Spiders. I think what makes that one so bad is that the levels get so long and complex as you get further in, and there's generally only one right way to solve them, so if you get most of the way through a maze and make one mistake, you're gonna have to repeat each step that got you there when you inevitably die and have to restart.
Thank goodness the Friday Features are truly back, best bit of the week Rob!
Woooh a mention of Catherine, however brief! Still need to 100% that game, and yeah, Rapunzel is gonna be a nightmare.
Was not expecting Rob to do a gruf cowboy accent 🤣
I knew jounery of the prairie king was going to be here. That is a brutal mini game
Not once have I thought I'd see Stardew Valley on this channel but my god, yes. I find both mini games insanely difficult.
Never stop doing these please
Wonderful Nath appearance!
I remember playing ratchet and clank games, I forget which installment it was but there was one with a mini game called “my blaster runs hot”. I also remember having tried it for 10-15 hours, failing miserably and becoming so scarred that I refuse to try it to this day.
"UP FOR SOME JENGA!?" 😂 God I love Rosie!
I cannot stress enough how much we have needed these Friday features. Thank you Rob 🎉🎉🎉
3:25 So THAT'S where Nathan has been the whole time.
Fantastic to see Nath back even if only briefly even if he's more management now, still miss him and remember the 301 Club. Nice references to games a former colleague enjoyed as well both FF & Yakuza.
I cannot even describe how much I love watching Rob's Friday Features. To see that they are finally back makes me really happy. They were the reason I started following the channel, I was always hoping for their return. I love listening to Rob talk about games. FF Fridays are BACK! 😍
The stupid drinking mini game in Watch Dogs is the only thing standing in my way of the platinum trophy.
me too
PlayStation Access has been absolutely smashing it with the recent videos.
Great job team! Love the skits & I'm still laughing about the Banana breaks in the Topspin Livesteam.
#PODSQUAD
Thank you for including Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep!! That damn minigame is literally the reason I'm not going to platinum the game + without that minigame, I was even going to platinum the whole series!! Another awesome Friday feature, so glad theyre back
Farming there’s a reason it’s one letter away from harming 😂😂 made my day
I needed Rob’s Friday features in my life again. Cheers 🍻
I think a lot of devs forget mini games are supposed to be fun not insanity inducing
The production quality of these videos are amazing.
So cool to see Dan again :D I'm loving these Friday features
So glad to see Friday Features is back. Rob could do a top 10 worse mini games on just Final Fantasy series. 😂😂
Thank you for bringing these back!!!Like a little pre-weekend treat😁
King Rob why isn't he wearing his crown today 😂he's the king of making Friday perfect
I’m with you, Rob. I’m 40 years old and have been playing FF since the 90’s and I have never wanted to kill a moogle until playing that godforsaken moogle herding minigame in FF7 Rebirth
Yay Friday features are back! You caught me doing my happy dance!
Great to see Friday Feature back,,Rob is as brilliant as always..keep the shows coming every Friday please...
P.S i miss Ash..😢
The BBS minigames for the plat almost drove insane. Doing all that and the whooole Mirage Arena 3 time was brutal
I wholeheartedly agree with you on the Moogle game and WOW!!! you went all the way back to Birth by Sleep??? dang that's a reach. I love it!!
It's about time. I haven't seem these in forever. Rob is my favorite.
The butterfly catching mini game in FFX. Pretty much any mini game in any FF title now that I think about it.
Hello, you've caught me waiting for next weeks friday feacher. I love that they are back as well as Desmond 😁
Woo! Friday features!
So great to see these Friday Features back!! I always looked forward to these every week back in middle school and a little bit in high school. Now I'm 21, I've moved across the country, and I'm still looking forward to the new FF every week. Keep it up, guys! :)
Box Nathan, Just Caught Rob, Ace Dave, and Yakuza Rose-Mary prove why PlayStation Access has always been and continues to be the best and funniest gaming channel on UA-cam. 😁🤙🏼
This was an amazing episode. And yes, I do want to play EVEN MORE Sega games!
Well, you certainly hooked us with these Friday Features. Get it, hooked, because of fishing...
Rob, Dave, Nathan, you guys are truly back and at your best. It is so good to have you back and making new top-level content together.
Nice to see every OG plus Rosie in one of Friday's Feature videos....Nostalgic...feeling old all of sudden😢😅
I'm getting far to happy coming home from work finding a Friday feature waiting for me. Thanks gang ❤❤❤
If half of these aren't FF7 Rebirth...
Please God! Let these "friday features" videos never end! 😍😍😍
I subscribed for robs Friday features years ago, so happy they’re back
Missed you Nathan! Beyond happy Friday features are back!🎉
Love seeing the Friday features back, I missed them! The pac-man mini game in jak2 I think is probably one of the hardest I've ever had to complete. I swear they made it easier for the ps4 re-release, thank goodness
So glad the Friday Features are back. One mini game that frustrated me was Monkey Fling from Bully/Canis Canem Edit.
Yay, love the return of the Friday Feature ❤
Rosie was hilariously brilliant playing all those characters hehe
Rosie’s yakuza minigames should be a new segment. 😂
Hello, you caught me squealing with joy that Rob is back with the Friday Features…
thanks for shouting out Rapunzel from Catherine, that was so annoying but i kept going back to it...
A friday feature to get me trough the last 2 hours of work? Thnx Rob!
I simply can’t believe the Friday feature times are back, it’s just too good to be true! ❤
By the way, talking about old times, I really struggled with Tetra Master the first time I played FF9, only recently I have been able to play it properly 😅
rob's friday feature is just the best
10:44
Wow, "Huge Bear". Such an intimidating name. Way more intimidating than, I don't know, Blood-Starved Beast ? Orphan of Kos ? Metal Gear REX ?
Love seeing Dan back on camera!
Friday features are back! Now wating for access granted
I kind of thought the Lost Viking from StarCraft 2 Wings of Liberty might have been on this list. I lost a pretty decent amount of time on that mini-game.
Hello, you've caught me finally getting back into my routine of watching Friday Feature every week with my dinner
It’s always great to see Nathan make an appearance.
Ohh FF my Friday's are more bright with this amazing videos.... and delsin...
2:17 the goddamn cactus gates in the chocobo races 🤣
