We need a falcon channel just like jakes
That would be wild to all the people that still think Falcon is an AI😂
I 2nd that motion I love Jake to but I would like to see falcon get a channel as well deep diving in different game stories
@@Ichiban_Kasuga. fr people be thinking that?? Lol
@@snoopwillpaci think and believe that Falcon is a real human being BUT you can’t deny the fact that every 5/10 videos his voice changes COMPLETELY out of the blue and it’s alwayssssss different. My man is trolling us or has the vocal control of a harmonizer. Shit is crazy sometimes 😂😂😂
@@snoopwillpac GIVE US A FALCON CHANNEL PLSSSSSS
"I'm a bird, I don't know." -- I love it when he commits to the character!
Was gonna comment on this 😅, glad to see someone else noticed and appreciated it earlier.
What do you mean "character" he IS a bird
Character?
I hope he uses that with his kids... "Dad... I'm hungry... make me breakfast" "I'm a bird...."
That alone killed me 😅
Activating Ghost Mode in Ghost of Tsushima. Seeing all the enemies start freaking out and then just cutting through everyone in front of you was the most badass feeling I’ve had in gaming in a long while.
Remember getting goosebumps that first time man
Especially when it’s black and white and flashes red when you strike. Gives strong Acheron vibes from HSR
Ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh, it's awesome
I've gotta say my favorite skill is Heavenly Strike. Satisfying as hell to use against weaker targets. Unfortunately not very effective against bigger and stronger guys, but still very fun to use.
Same. I love how the environment starts going crazy too, with the wind picking up and the like
Trueeee 💯
Whether Falcon is unhappy when making a list, or truly enjoying himself, his unleashed passion is so infectious. Love it!
Throwing the Leviathan axe over a cliff, walking around for half hour and press triangle and waiting for that axe to land right on your hand is soooooo satisfying 😁
Sometimes I forget I threw it and have to wait a full minute for that thing to travel across the map
First time I played that game I swear I spent a solid 30-45 minutes just tossing the axe around and calling it back for absolutely no reason at all. I'd then occasionally decide to fling it at shit just to see if I could hit random things in the environment....there's also something super satisfying about throwing it just before a dodge, then calling it back and having it fly through the enemy from behind.... the whole mechanic is absolutely fucking peak in every way.
@@Astraeus.. sammmmeeeeee
@@bennyblunto973 feel like MCU Thor
We all did that
For me prototype was a game that had a plethora of abilities that blew my mind away
Agreed.Especially that Tendril Barrage attack you pull off which just straight up scares me out cus of how devastating it is.
was prototype the one where you could turn a citizen into a biobomb and just throw them?
Exactly and Infamous.
@@izayiahklawans1048 That would be the second prototype, where you controlled Heller instead of Mercer.
Prototype came to mind watching the Spiderman cpmbat
The best ability in games is where you actually own it. 🎉
That’s nice but the people who own physical editions really think they own it, ya don’t you have a key to put in your console when they shut down the servers you will no longer have access just like digital, just like subscription 🤷🏾♂️ but we can fight back
Ubisoft would like to have a word
@0OnSoul0 no it just depends on the game....
That's soo CUTE! You actually think we OWN our games these days?
🤣
Metal Gear Rising with precision slicing
Was about to say the same thing.
Dude I’m literally playing that RN
Zandatsu I think
They talk about MGS Rising and the slicing feature all of the time
Rising the first demo, yeah.
The weird, low grade knock off that is revengeance that only has some small aspects of greatness? No.
I know it's an old game already - but getting a Takedown in Burnout 3: Takedown was one of the most awesome gaming abilities I've ever experienced.
The way the visuals and sound design complemented it - hearing a high note, slowing down to focus on the crashed car, a section is added to the boost meter with a sonic boom, then rushing back to focus on your car as the view blurs from speed, and the boost meter fills with fire that you can hear burning like a jet engine.
Truly a masterpiece of game design.
My all time favorite racing game. Maybe more appropriate to call it arcade racing.
Damn, Falcon is INSPIRED! 😂 I enjoy the levitating in CONTROL. So simple but so awesome.
Surprised Infamous Second Son didnt get a mention here. Every ability in that game felt so badass, smoke and Neon especially. The movement and the particle effects were top notch for a game that was so early in the ps4 life cycle.
Agree I thought the same
Felt powerful
Nothing tops the lightning strike in infamous 1 and 2 that felt sick especially since you could control the direction with the controller
God, i wish that game came to pc. I really wanted to get a ps4 when i saw that game
Second Son is mentioned in the part 1 video. Hope that helps.
I love that falcon takes his time to fly to the studio and talk to us.
You can also call your axe in god of war during a combo when u don’t have it. Instead of pressing triangle, throw ur axe, sprint , L2 +R1. This will automatically call back the AXE and HE DOES A POWER SLAM THAT DOESNT NEED ANY RUNIC. Pretty cool
You can't talk about the Ghost Stance without talking about how you aquire the Ghost Stance. You are defending the city of Yarikawa from a Mongol invasion, the enemy has broken through the final wall and is in the castle courtyard preparing to storm the keep. You come out of the shadows and viciously decapitate the enemy general in front of his men, then absolutely slaughter his best warriors while they are paralyzed by fear. This leads to a full rout as the Mongols flee in fear at the very sight of you as you carve through the entire army like butter. It is easily one of the most satisfying moments in gaming history.
"Flee, you cowards! Warriors of Yarikawa! Hunt the Mongol dogs! Slay them to a man!"
So fucking cool
I like throwing the axe as far away as possible and then the recall isn’t just a teleport the axe actually travels in real time back to Kratos. Really awesome.
And ge recalls it, everytime before he opens a door to a separate area. Just for immersion purposes. 🎮😆
Deadeye in Red Dead makes the game so much better
Call of Juarez bound in blood was the first to use it❤
@@PRITISINGH-hj6kk Nope, Max Payne 1,2,3, Red Dead Revolver, GTA V, rdr1 and rdr2
definitely. not a feature I'd say "blows me away" by any stretch though
@@PRITISINGH-hj6kk Deadeye is just VATS from the fallout series
Forgot F.E.A.R
Just started playing Control.
The whole game feels like it belongs on this list.
When I played Control I would end up getting distracted due to how fun it was to just mess around and throw office stuff around. Breaking things and making a mess is just a fun aspect of that game. The physics effects they built in their game engine does a type of real time damage effects that makes that gameplay not repetitive. It's such a satisfying thing that I wish all games can implement. I prefer aspects like these compared to games that put graphics above all else
Trust me, these guys love control. That game is almost in every video.
Yeah, it's pretty nuts. I am going a little crazy finding locations, but the shooting feels like Reservoir Dogs, and it runs butter-smooth on my xb.
agreed, but uf u have to pick one it's either throwing a giant explsoive forklift at a group of enemies, or doing a dive attack, which can absolutely demolish everying within impact radius if you invested enough points and upgrade items
Thank you for including the Mikiri counter. Its such a simple thing and it makes you feel awesome every single time.
One of the most satisfying moves in gaming, although the lightning deflect in Sekiro is also awesome
The Devil May Cry "look at this" followed by 3 achievements unlocked at the same time says it all
That's Vergil in a nutshell. 😂
There's a guy with a whole essay, about why Vergil is the coolest character in gaming.
My biggest takeaway is his quote: "Vergil is the character you choose, when you want cool things to just... HAPPEN!". 😆
Vergil is literally so badass that an easy combo tutorial single handedly boosted sales of DMC5
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood - calling the rain of arrows on the ennemies
One of the most badass move of all time when you do it while slowly walking towards a large group of ennemies
I commented in the last op video on Brotherhood calling in all the other assassins was so fn satisfying!
I swear, falcon mispronounces at least one word each video on purpose, just to see how we'll respond.
Well, he’s a bird so his English is still better than most humans
It’s equal to when those snap chatters draw a little circle on their pic to get people to view it even tho there’s nothing there
He’s a hot bird.
Thought the same thing. He repeats “symbiote” wrong on purpose forsure.
"I don't know, I'm a bird." Made my day. Thank you!
Honestly, that power lighting storm power fantasy from Infamous actually made into the demo. And it was such fun skill to use, that it's the primary factor that got me to grab that game.
“Embrace the Darkness” Jedi survivor, very underrated.
BASED
YESSS.
So you ARE a talking bird! The legend of Falcon lives in.
Lol so true
My favorite mechanic in Ghost of Tsushima is a subtle one, but a good one, if you play the flute when its storming the skies clear and the sun starts shining its amazing doing that after you clear a camp because the fight usually creates a storm, it's so dynamic.
Maya's phaselock ability in Borderlands 2, with converge, ruin and a full kit of elemental upgrades. Phaselock lets you immobilize one bad guy in a bubble so you can then unload on the poor bastard without him shooting back. Converge yoinks every enemy in the region towards the phaselocked target like a black hole; if it was just those two, you could follow up a phaselock with a grenade to just shred the jujubees out of everything, but then ruin causes a blast of fire, corrosive, shock and slag to everything in the area. You can't really do this until late in the game(I wanna say you need to be level forty something before you get both abilities fully upgraded), but once you can you can pretty much stomp around clearing out rooms like a bamf.
Doing all that with a Sandhawk + Bee combo is pure bliss.
Where’s the Arkham Fear Takedown?
Thank you for including InFamous on the list. It is definitely my alll-time favorite apocalyptic superhero video game.
The Fear Multi Takedown in Batman Arkham Knight is super badass too. It was downright revolutionary and mindblowing the first time it was featured and shown in the game and there wasn't anything like that back then across all games. And god does it feel badass, like it really makes you feel like you are the Dark Knight kicking serious ass and tearing the criminals apart. It is a sad thing that Gotham Knights or Suicide Squad never had such features.
Lightning Storm from infamous, will always be my all time favorite move.
It felt electrifying using the controller to steer it, into whatever direction you wanted to go.
I’d also like to add: the way you can interact with enemies using your lantern in Lords of the Fallen.
Knights of the round from the original Final Fantasy 7 will always be my favorite
Junctioned with double cast.
The special abilities in AC Odyssey was absolutely badass. Being able to Spartan kick an enemy off a cliff was badass as hell!
Falcon, your passion is the best part of this video 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I thought the God of War axe recover would of been for when you catch an enemy on the way back to your hand??? THAT'S BAD ASS!
That MAX PAYNE move will forever be the most bad ass ability in video gaming. STRAIGHT GANGSTA!
When the video started , I was thinking of it but couldn't remember the name . Then it was in top 3 in this.
Working off the Leviathan Axe idea, I love going from on foot to into a Titan in Titanfall 2. Those transitions feel so insane.
That Izuna Drop just reminded me of when I was a game tester on Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. After buying a series of move unlocks by spending experience (you need this move unlocked to unlock that one, etc), you can get this juggle a lot like that Izuna Drop. Plus I liked to include this optional decorative thing, I think called Flurry, where if you pause a moment between sword slashes you do some decorative swirls in between slashes - which seemed to mean more hits too. So this juggle move could be with or without the decorative sword twirling. He'd slash one way, slash the other, do a force stomp to pop the enemy in the air, I think slash jump up with him, then a slashing slam to the ground. If the enemy was the right strength (strong enough to survive that long, but able to be defeated by the whole combo), he'd be disintegrated by that last slash. I think the ONLY way to disintegrate an enemy short of putting him into something destructive like a force field. As a game tester I abused my tools to pause the action and move the camera to get some pictures of this from the side, including the disintegrating enemy, :) I just loved doing this to every enemy I could, I would usually get all the required moves unlocked by a planet called Felucia, and the Felucians were nicely the right strength for this, :)
Really needed that 45 second clip of GOW
Lmao it had to be the most boring clip from the entire game too
Shadow of mordor ability are too badass
Seriously! Every melee encounter starts with a teleport into the bonfire
Linking Shadow Strikes on multiple enemies is highly satisfying
Wild 9. The way you can grab a enemy and just fling them around and pop them in a trap is so badass.
Also essence of orbital laser in yakuza like a dragon.
KoA Reckoning (An absolutely Hidden Gem) has some of my favorite abilities in fantasy RPGs
The Mage tree has 3 badass ultimates, one where you summon a bigass Meteor, Tempest where in a very Thor fashion you rain down a bunch of Lightning and Winter’s Embrace where you summon a howling blizzard that chases and damages and slows enemies
The Warrior has Wrath where you “Force pull” enemies towards you afterwards you jump up lifting everyone around you and slam them downwards as you fall down. It looks badass
The Rogue tree has Gambit which is simple but super fun to use. You charge up the ability and then leap backwards while throwing a bunch of tripmines in front of you.
The combat is hella fun, I highly recommend it
*You have me inspired to start making vids.* Much love and major props to you gamer 🤬
Yeeting a zombie off a roof with a drop kick in dying light will always be bad ass to me.
I feel that either the Maelstrom or Meteor from Dragons Dogma and DD2 deserve a mention. Calling in a Literal Tornado, watching enemies sucked into it or calling in a meteor shower in an action game is peak sorcery lol
Blink in Dishonored is great fun. Never gets boring teleporting right behind enemies.
Umm.. as a huge GoW fan, yes the axe recall is awesome by itself, but does anyone realize WHY manual recall exists?
1) Tactics. You can keep one enemy frozen with the axe while you pound another with your shield and fists.
2) It's required for puzzle mechanics.
3) THIS IS THE BIG ONE! It allows for special moves like the recall hammer.. or whatever it's called lol. It's been a hot minute since I've last played this.. but basically, if you have the move unlocked and Kratos' axe isn't in his hand, you can perform a move (multiple moves I believe), with full and awesome animation sequences, where Kratos will recall the axe mid-fight, or while running at an enemy and grab it in the air and slam it down on an enemy. Seriously.. I'm not explaining it properly to give it enough credit. Gameranx should have mentioned this as the "special move." Go look up the axe recall combos on UA-cam and you'll see what I mean.
Oh.. also.. it's just bad ass that Kratos' is equally as strong as Thor's hammer, and they both kind of work the same way. Kratos' axe doesn't have "infinite weight" but it's indestructible and can (seemingly) slice through anything. It can't help him fly like Thor's hammer does when he throws it with enough force.. but it does recall the same way the hammer does and will pass through or around ANYTHING to get back to Kratos. Sometimes it's fun just to throw it as far as you can and then recall it just to hear it cut through wood, rock, etc. and whoosh it's way back to you lol.
It's an AWESOME game mechanic, but the skill of being able to throw it at one enemy while attacking another and then recall it mid-fight for a massive combo hit is just... 😗 chef's kiss!
This is what I thought they were going to show.
5:10 " .. I don't actually like it when you call the axe back .. " hilarious!🤣🤣
Nothing beats the satisfaction of Mikiri Counter and the disbelief when Owl Father counter yours !
The symbiote ground combo in web of shadows was great since time slows down for each move, and it's not even necessary for enemies around for the full combo to be made. You just obliterate an entire block in front of you anytime you want
the boardslide and the whips were also sick for the black suit, the web yank as well
launch from control is insanely satisfying and the sound design for it is phenomenal
Love that Ghost stance!
I'm glad you mentioned all the bullet-time stuff in the Max Payne games, even though some of those games are old. It made playing those so much fun.
Vergil is still a badass boss when you unlock him as a playable character unlike in other video games.
On the subject of Kratos calling his axe back what makes it even cooler is when you're fighting & mid combo call it back while simultaneously landing a power shot on numerous enemies. That really made it over the top to me
I got a few moves I wish was on this list or a future one:
Blue Venom blast abilities from Miles in SM2, Links flurry rush, especially against Ganon while using the full power Master Sword, and Batman multi fear takedown from AK
Great, you just added to my list of games I've got to get!
Unrelenting Force should have been an honorary mention at least. I spent the whole video waiting for it. Few things have ever come close to the feeling of being charged by a group of bandits and blasting them down a mountain with a well placed fus ro dah.
Falcon is why I subscribed! Lovethe passion he has for gaming, after that I just fell in love with the channel haha I love gameranx!!
Perfect timing for my early lunch 😊
Man, I remember Mass Effect 3 when they had multiplayer. There was one special biotic class I unlocked and maxed out. The powerful combos I would dish out on a bass-enhanced surround system just absolutely made me feel like a god.
Does anybody remember the game *stranglehold?* It was on PlayStation three I love the slo-mo bullet gimmick it had, it was the best part of the game. They should remake it for PlayStation five I’d love to play it again fully
The Leviathan Axe's recall ability just feels so satisfying to throw and a great method at chipping away at boss' health from a range
really really good list, awesome points too
12:08 I really wish they redid Infamous. Really any of the fun open world, wreck stuff games with updates for current consoles.
James Heller’s devastators should have made the list. One of the most badass OP characters I’ve played as in gaming.
this video was BADASS! thanks guys ❤
Dragons Resurgence from Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth was amazing and a great callback to the older games, i really loved Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth as a send off for Kiryu-san but man, i'm sure going to miss him, what a saga, i'll never forgot the series and it will stick with me for life
the last clip got me laughing, the dude just screaming and getting an arrow in the face is too funny😂😂😂😂
I like the Dragon Age Inquisition Knight Enchanter class spirit sword, it makes a mage who usually stand at the rear and dodging enemy aggro became a literal warrior charging ahead. It just makes other classes pales in comparison. Hope the new DA create awesome classes like this
I love calling the axe back in GoW 2018 when it shreds thru enemies on the way back to you it’s epic and badass
The telekinesis in control where you rip concrete from the floor and wall and throw it is the coolest thing I've used. The sound effect definitely adds to its allure.
Judgement Cut End is epic because of the OST goes with it as well
Shout out to the Halberd in Zone of the Enders The 2nd Runner. The wind up time alone is so satisfying.
Spiderman "thwiping" all over the place in the thumbnail was a bold choice. 😂😂😂
4:41 think my favorite part about The Leviathan Axe, is that the recall can do damage if it hits something on the way back to kratos’s hand
The ghost stand was very cool when I played Tsushima, especially when they introduced it first time in the Mongol battle inside the castle, it was so epic when the whole army started running away from you with terrifying screams, it was fantastic.
Would like to add Middle Earth 1&2 game's teleport with chain killing enemies, so BADASS!! And Assassin's Creed Brotherwood raining arrows on enemies with signal! And I know Vergil's Judgement cut is iconic but man DMC 5 Dante's Sin Devil triggers's "The Judgement" move imo is one of the most badass ability I've ever seen in gaming history, soooo cool to watch! And in Sekiro Mortal Draw is as equally badass as Mikiri counter❤️🔥❤️🔥
What I like about calling back the axe is when an enemy is in front of you it hits the enemy, and yes the sound it makes when it flies back and you grab it is so satisfying
Always love to hear the Falcon on Gameranx videos. Superlative Narrator, Orator Supreme.
The fact the axe could do damage on the way back too to help with combos😊
Jedi survivor‘s turning to the dark side ability is amazing as well!
you get so addicted to bullet time, never gets old
Your video reminded me one of the best game "prototype 2" who's character had a destruction power ..which actually was so damn cool in comparison with many current games👏🏻😍..great video.👍
10:56 Falcon, that was outta nowhere! A surprise for sure but a pleasant one, glad to see you enjoying it this much xD
The Tiger Drop from Yakuza series,Issen Counter from Onimusha,Tendril Barrage from Prototype,Musou Attacks from Dynasty/Samurai Warriors franchise are some of the most flashiest badass moves you could pull in a video game.
The Izuna drop comment had me laughing so much! Absolutely relatable!
Honorable mention to "Chain Assassinate" in GoT, I've literally never felt like more of a badass than when using that ability.
Not a specific power, but comboing powers in Control definitely gives a feeling of badassery; and all of them together in the Ashtray Maze is just 👌
Mass effect pull + slam was so much fun when there's a cliff nearby
Lightning Storm is super cool in Infamous ❤
I remember every game practically has a special meter with some kind of badass move behind it. Feels a bit rarer nowadays. One of the reasons I love freeform combat orientated games a bit more. They make you feel so badass
The shoot dodge in total overdose makes you a complete badass tho!
Izuna drop was easy to do because the inputs didn’t require much timing. You could just input the whole combo as fast as you could push the buttons and then Ryu would execute the combo at his pace. As long as you connected with the first hit it was done.
“I’m a bird, I don’t know.” = all timer Falcon line
What i like about throwing the axe is if you path it right, it will damage things on the return. I love it.
I love watching people’s reactions to ghost stance on UA-cam.
Calling the axe back and it cutting thru monsters on the return is bad ass
