Here is how this project started: ua-cam.com/video/suXiVALa35g/v-deo.html
You have a beautifully posh accent. What part of the country are you from?
I would definitely love to watch a video series of 'Gemma's thoughts' where you just talk to us about what goes through your mind.
"basement dwellers, flat earthers" OMG I nearly choked on my tea LOLing at that. Brilliant. 😂
@@fallwitch 🤣🤣🤣 You catch my drift
Wow. You have a great speaking voice. You definitely could be a professional narrator.
It's astonishing how Rule of Rose was banned in the UK. It's nuts!
Anyway, you did a great job on that shelf 👍
@@BritishVideoGameNerd Thank you mate. Yeah the story blew my mind. I’m happy to own a piece of history
It was banned around the world actually, that is why it was rare and why the prices were high up since day one ...
Why? It's because the game events overall story are morbid, depressing and really pointless, why they made it so dark is beyond me. Whoever was in direction of this had some major mental issues is all I can say also who on earth published in such a state is also quite questinable ... But yeah the game was banned pretty fast around the world for a valid reason.
Nevermind what was said in the video, it's not just UK or that one article bashing it rather it's much more then that. The game is way too dark.
Other then that the game graphically is beautiful, the CGI videos are high quality for the time too, great music but that is pretty much it.
Wish they toned down the dark themes and made the story more coherent and it would be right up there with Silent Hill 2 and 3 levels of revolutionary.
Watched a stream of it last year and the streamer first hyped it all up but she changed her mind up to a point where it became really depressing. I had to stop watching it and she also quit the stream maybe 30 minutes in and never finished the game too.
First I didn't wanted to say much but yeah she admitted right after that she fangirled over it completely blindly since she likes horror games and adventure games a lot BUT said that the game is just too much to handle ...
Sidenote: From what I remember the European (UK included) came with a OST disc too so I am surprised to see this version in the video not having that at all.
@@minmogrovingstrongandhealthyThat's your opinion, but by using this reasoning you should also advocate for the ban of Joker 2 as well.
Now, I'm not saying it's a good movie, but nevertheless, it shouldn't be banned just because it's extremely dark, depressing and demoralising.
@@minmogrovingstrongandhealthyP.S. the funny thing is that while the controversy was started by that terrible Panorama article (which I remember reading, my father used to buy the magazine at the time), the game in Italy was never banned.
Luckily, since the Catholic Church lost much of its power, it has become quite difficult to impose bans on things over here in Italy.
It’s wild that Rule of Rose was banned in the UK & the story actually takes place there in the 30’s!😅
I had my copy of RoR the past few weeks. Came from Italy and the same version as yours. Exactly the same condition as yours and other streamers that opened theirs.
Guess Rule of Rose won't be rare at all anymore. Seems like everyone and their grandma has one 😆
Was there any information on how many games were in this found package or whatever it was?
@@philberto78 It looks to be between 500 and 1000 based on ebay sales.
@@Sasahara-Lafiel Ahh That will definitely lower the price, at least for a few months anyway. Thanks for the info!
There’s way more than that. Hundreds more continue to pop up.
People still trying to get £400. It's more like a £50 game nowadays, there are everywhere
Much prefer the white units, look cleaner, don’t show dust so much and white opens the room up more.
The room is looking good brev..and that rule of rose is just levels 🔥🔥
As for gaming graders in the UK A place SuB center?? I think ❤❤❤
Thank you my lovely. I might email them for more information Brev ❤️❤️❤️
My ps2 games are double stacked in alphabetical order so I know your pain, I always have to move everything round when I get more games to go in the right places. Also gotta add what a good egg Jess is helping you x
Love how the room is coming together!
Thanks! I think the room is starting to look better than my cooking skills... and that’s saying something!
New subscriber here :) Just want to say these videos are so strangely comforting to watch, and I'm so glad this channel came up on my feed as it's rekindled my love for retro games and now I'm hunting for the consoles and games I had as a kid, or lusted after! Keep doing what you do, you're great
Welcome to the channel! I'm so glad to hear that our videos have rekindled your love for retro games. Happy hunting for those consoles and games!
I have the Alien Trilogy VHS box set as well which I bought from new. I still have the T-Shirt as well tho I used to wear it all the time. Really is cool. I also have the 25th Anniversary “Alien Head” Quadrilogy DVD box set as well which is a must have for all Alien fans and collectors.
Still have mine, and the terminator tin set.
Rule Of Rose..that magazine ad gave me the chills for some reason
@@TTrigg Ans to think it was plagiarized and added made up rhetoric, which led to the ban in the UK 🇬🇧
hi Jess
I just have to let you know about your new billy bookcases. they can hold about 400 games if you add 2 more shelves. I cut my own shelves for my ikea units with old white wardrobes.
Also with 8 shelves including the bottom, it looks much cleaner as all the games are facing the same way and games aren't on top of each other.
Project continuing nicely.
Doing sort of similar thing myself these days, I'm preparing my stuff for a very likely move in coming months, so have started packing some stuff already, for example my PS1, packed it in it's original box, cables, memorycard, controller, everything, so it's easy to carry all in one unit. Collected also it's games to a cardboard box.
Later will disassemble some furnitures so they take less space during the move, and of course in the new place, will have to put them together again.
Let me rip & burn those discs
I have great desires to sail the seas.
have you ever noticed the when you look at a black xenomorph...take the time to get a good photo to check it out, try even Alien Isolation... and go over how Frieza looks untransformed and now then ask E.T. what E.T.'s level 3 transformation might look like!! its really really trippy to some, how all their life's watching Aliens and never ever noticed that it casually looks like an E.T. Super transformed..i mean look at Frieza to Level 3. hope all is well with yuh!, love the show!! stay safe and take care!!!
Rule of Rose wasn't actually banned in the UK - or anywhere else for that matter...
505 Games just decided not to distribute it here after all the false reports and media backlash...
I believe there was genuine concern over a character taking their own life though but other than that the game must be quite tame as PEGI only certified the game with a 16 rating!!
@@WayneCatlin It was never imported or sold commercially in the UK 🇬🇧
@@TheGebs24
Yeah, by choice - not because it was banned.The VSC passed the game and PEGI certified 16!!
Only the VSC have the authority to ban a game and I'm pretty sure they defended Rule of Rose against the false reports around it...
@@WayneCatlin Thanns for the clarification Wayne 👍👍
@@TheGebs24
I've tried to research it a few times to figure out exactly what happened??
I can imagine that very few retailers were interested in stocking the game, obviously they would have to commit to hundreds, or even thousands of units. The game had reviewed poorly and the backlash was quite intense. PS3 was on the horizon and the popularity of horror games were in decline...
I can only assume that 505 couldn't come to an agreement with any retail partners that made sense to them and so abandoned the planned release all together...
@@WayneCatlin Who knows. Overall, it’s a fascinating story.
Previous owners of RoR will lose money as the market is now flooded but at least more people get to own a piece of gaming history
PAL Rule of Rose what a gem grail. Great video Gemma and Jess.
The aliens set came with a T-shirt i still have my shirt and wear it every now and again
That Alien Trilogy set is "Hands-Down" is really freaking awesome ...but I'm 100% certain that playing the VHS Cassette Tapes or just in storage as you have them ...they still "Deteriorate" over time. Said Trilogy Set is still extremely collectable though!🙂
No point getting Rule of Rose graded the market is being flooded with them. Price is decreasing month on month I think it will be sub £200 in a couple of months. Not a cheap game by any means but this isn’t a grail anymore.
For now no but it will probably be one in another decade or so, especially if it is a sealed copy. also 200 is still aint cheap mind you.
I've never heard of this game before or the story about it. What a find😮Great video as always Gemma
@@stealthninja4299 Thank you Stealth
Wow Gemma that Rule of Rose is such a cool find with such a unique story! I don't know about getting it graded though...having a game entombed in plastic where you can't even touch it let alone play it just seems wrong.
you are telling this to a person who sits on items never to be touched upon ... case in point she shown a rare TEST PS2 unit with a HDD attached to it and she doesn't even know what is on it nor seem to care ...
typical hoarding basically
as for the game too, it's hella depressing anyway, I like to collect games I like and play from time to time but in this case I would probably make it more collectible and store it away for a future sale when time comes for it, the game is just way too dark, hence why it was banned around the world and why it's rare since day one ...
watch out with those short socks and the ladder stairs, few years back one of those slide off my foot on similar stairs and I went flying down XD
Yikes, I hope you were not hurt
I lost track of what you were saying when you laid down on the carpet.😂 But you knew that.
OMG a painting on the attic lid; that's epic... molly and a xenomorph. you win the internet, cheers
@@Whisky_4_1 Haha thank you
Didn't think I would see my RoR unboxing vid on here :)
Have to be honest, I wouldn't have bothered changing the black, but seeing the white now looks really good. Nice transformation
@@Press_Start_Games Your RoR?
Yeah the white, is much brighter and I think my mood needs brighter right now 😄
@@TheGebs24RoR = Rule of Rose
Ok mate you win the internet today!!
Aww thank you mate
I got one of those Rule of Rose I opened mine as I am going to play it and the relief I had when it was genuine was so happy
@@jaygallacher6544 Awwww yay Jay! Congratulations and thanks for verifying it too
Remember pre-ordering mine years ago then being let down by the Ban :(
Gemma did you get your M's Pacman off eBay, please say yes ,coz I sold one ages ago on there
You could open the rule of rose game and play it Gem. But yes there is a UK Grader out there.
@@tomfum Nah mate. She is staying sealed. Could always buy a second copy 🤪🤪🤪🤪
i started the switch to white particle board just in case i need to use a bit of bleach based cleanser to deodorize / disinfect
Great stuff, as ever Gemma - you're 41, seriously, I thought you were in your late 20's, maybe 30 at a push, what's your secret?
I know where the boxes came from as i was the first round of people that purchased from the first batch that came out so i pestered the seller if they were fakes and they told me where they got the box from and so i did some research and found out exactly where it came from :) i ended up buying two copies cos i wasnt sure if they were fake so one i opened to check it with my italian copy and cross ref with scans of the british copy!
usually random storage liquidations where they make lots and set bidings for them, this is how people find random stuff from back in a day so as new things for dirt cheap, this is basically all over the world
I seen things that I didnt even knew was sold in my country but my guess is that it was smuggled or taken by authorities for whatever reason and then forgot about only to resurface decades later on these liquidations ...
Fab! And are you happy?
@@TheGebs24 of course I was looking for an English copy for so so long!
There have been reports suggesting that some copies of Rule of Rose discovered in Italy are considered counterfeits. Rule of Rose is a rare survival horror game. Collectors should exercise caution when acquiring copies of the game, particularly from regions where counterfeiting has been documented, as it may be difficult to distinguish between legitimate and counterfeit copies.
True but in this case this is some old stock that was left to rot in some warehouse since the game was banned worldwide. Some say it wasnt banned BUT IT ACTUALLY WAS due to it's dark tones.
Game themes are suicide, animal cruelty, bulling list goes on and it doesn't send a positive message about it but rather seems way too morbid. These are the same reasons why it was ordered to be banned and pulled off the shelves where it was shipped.
I saw that article too!
Thank goodness for Jess, making your shelves, love her too bits. Give a big cuddle to Jess xxx
@@22fairywings Truly
Your gameroom looks very impressive and very well organised, Gem! 😎👍🎮
@@FalcomScott312 thanks mate
@@TheGebs24 Welcome!
That's a Brown recluse spider.
What is that? Does it bite?
@@TheGebs24 Yes it bites and it leaves a very nasty sting, if the bite is also infected with bacteria it could leave to a very nasty sore wound that could start to necrosis.
Omg I remember that alien trilogy box, I always looked for that and never found it
I cut back on my collection because it was getting to big
I always thought that grading was a scam
@@NeilCooper72 I never got anything graded
How come you haven't checked out that EA console yet? Would be interesting to see what's on it :)
awesome video gemma!!!!!!!!
I got one of my grail items through the door today. Not masisvely expensive, but i was waiting literally all summer for a copy to get onto cex shelves. Pixel ripped 1985 on psvr. I wwnted a hard copy ever since I saw john riggs and Metal jesus heap praise on it. Admittedly, i couldn't wait for a hard copy and already purchased it digitally. But it's not the same as owning' so now i have a physical copy that I'll probably never even put in the console, lol. Damn just noticed you have a super mario all stars snes boxset lol. Another grail item i need. And one i will eventually get. Bills need paying first though. Ill save by not eating lol
13:32 I had no idea Syberia had a release on the PS2! The True Crime LA steelcase also looks hella slick!
Syberia 1 and 2 were on PS2 and for ages the only way to play them properly is on PS2. The PC ports are on Steam and GOG but have no support for PC and it's unplayable for 20 years or so.
The last time I managed to play these games on a PC were on back in Pentium4 days. Ever since then I only played them on PS2. No hassle and waste of time just plug and play that is why I still love the consoles.
@@minmogrovingstrongandhealthy Syberia 1 and 2 were also ported to ps3.
Who doesnt have a copy of rule of rose now?
@@jf-zq2qz You?
OMG I have Rule of Rose . Had it years and years my sister sent it to when she use to live in Canada. Just checked ebay selling from £300 to £600 crazy. Have you played it Gemma ? it's a sad story and the dog she has can't remember it's name looks like Molly lol AWESOME VIDEO.
@@mancavehobbies6213 Is it a UK copy? It should have a small Union Jack on the back.
Not played it mate. I only just learnt that the journalist lied about the story. I decided to buy a piece of history
Just my .02. If it is something that you never plan on selling, there is no sense in grading it. Save that money and add to your collection.
This game is hard to find and expensive 😢😢😢❤❤❤need to play own it 😂
I'm glad you have rule of rose I have it in my PS2 collection I have it sealed as well to complete my survival horror collection next to kuon. I love the alien trilogy case that's amazing I loved alien trilogy back in the PlayStation 1 days many spooky evenings playing those levels and facing the queen!
Definitely go after haunting ground or kuon if you haven't gotbtgem already keep up tge fantastic work! 🌟♥️😎
Thank you! It's always great to connect with fellow fans of classic survival horror games. Happy gaming!
@@TheGebs24 I love the survival horror genre my first ever survival horror game was clock tower the first fear back on the SNES long before resident evil and silent hill that came after. Remothered is another gem that came out on PS4 and XB1 it's very similar to the clock tower series.
Going get back to the silent hill 2 remake on PlayStation 5 stay safe! ♥️🌟🫂
Wow, you're the second person I've seen that has a copy of Rule of Rose game for the PS2. The first person I saw that got it delivered to him(sealed) is G.o.G.(Gentleman of Games) here on UA-cam, he recently did a video about it. He wasn't sure if the copy he got was the real deal or a counterfeit, but yeah he kept it sealed. I think he has an unsealed copy, those white shelves do indeed make the room a bit brighter. Cool Aliens Facehugger case, didn't know you had that. The room's coming along great, great video as always Gems
A quick question lady loft owner.... If Rule of Rose was a lost shipment of games that were banned and rejected by the UK how come he had other rare titles too including legend of Sayuki for ps2 & Wii ? They were not banned games. I just think they over printed them in Italy and put them away, when they saw how much value they were creating they sat on them and now the market is at the peak they are selling them and the legend of Sayuki on Wii was being sold for between 400-800 now it's being sold for 120 and less than 100 for the ps2 version even though it's the Italian version not the UK version I find it fascinating how caes keep just turning up of "authentic rare titles" because this guy has sold everything in the top ten except Kuon which will probably be next 😊
@@TGWWUC Great question! No idea 🤷♀️
Strong chance these are just really great counterfeits. If Italy suddenly has a bunch of Kuon show up then has to confirm it.
@@olioctane the peeson who is selling Rule of Rose had 3 Kuons on his list and is selling 3 games kuon, rule of rose and another title for 1200ish so as of 2 days ago he has listed 3 of them
I can Explain 505 games is a sub company under sony that produces and distrubes a lot of the european copies of games, including the Rule of Rose uk vers as they manufacture the games to be distrubuted to several dif european nations. The stock they had was the one they intended to ship out to uk but had to pull back last minute when the ban took place, so they just left them in storage for all these years but now are clearing them out. Sayuki Reload was another game they produced and distributed and they also distributed the european vers of Michigan Report From Hell so i will not be surprised they might also have stock of that game.
@@Bird-Birdy-Love so they just kept them in storage from that consignment, it makes sense I suppose because the games they are selling in Italy are mostly 505 games and there is a few of them there must have been a box or 2 of Kuon in there too as they have a few of those listed too. 👍
It's huge let's get it out LOL ❤😅
Nice job girlie ✌
