I'm hoping this will lead to another episode of The Old Game Show taking a look at the "sequel" of Snatcher, Policenauts as it was translated into English a few years ago.
+castlevania78 also everything was recorded in a warehouse with clip mikes because they couldn't afford a studio. Turns out you get really good readings when your VAs get to play off each other face-to-face
+poobumbutt Hahahah I had completely missed Jeff's reaction because I was busy paying attention to Brad's confoundment. That is fucking _gold_. Thank you for this comment.
Just now realizing read only memories appears to be heavily inspired by this game. Don't know much beyond what I saw of REM at PSX so they may have already confirmed that.
Pretty cool game. Hadn't really heard of any Kojima games other than Metal Gear. Seems very interesting, but I don't think I could enjoy it nearly as much as people did back in the day.
+PassTheGrenadePlease Kojima should just buy the rights or Sony even. This would make for a cool digital exclusive for anybody imo. Hell if sony owned the rights we could even see a big budget version, a man can dream.
I think this game encompasses the good and bad of Kojima. It looks great, great music, and cool world. But it can't go 5 seconds without expositioning every little thing at you.
Hey, are you here for UA-cam comments? People not knowing "oriental" is offensive? We got it. People just randomly feeling like hating on one of the GB crew? You know we got it. Oh, people defending Kojima's writing like he is a god among us puny beings...well, actually we're fresh out- NOPE WE TOTALLY GOT IT.
+Trafalgar Law It's one step above "Asiatic" or "Chinaman." The preferred nomenclature is either Asian or, even better, the actual nationality of the person you're talking about.
+Richard Aka Silver You are wrong Jason is great. Smart, funny and experience of the game mean that I think he adds a lot to this video and to giant bomb as a whole particularly when you realise he is actually hired for his video production skills. I think it is actually you who is the absolute worst.
The music for this game is fantastic.

This game's intro is fantastic. Kojima had the A E S T H E T I C.
wow snatcher audio quality is not to bad for back in the day and there is a lot of spoken dialog to, tickle me impressed.
+joshua meeks The same guy was in charge of the localization for mgs1.

As a cyberpunk myself this is highly relevant to my interests.
I had the opportunity to buy this for thirty bucks and I didn't because I finished it when I rented it. I REGRET THIS.
Oh man I loved this game way back in the day! Great choice for a video!
Holy shit, Jeff's reaction to "Where does Napoleon keep his armies?" Fucking instant revilement.
+poobumbutt Hahahah

One of my favorite games ever!
Brad almost looks like Ricky from Trailer Park Boys.
Who's got your belly, Bubbles?

Yep, played ROM and heard about its influence so started playing Snatcher about a week ago. I enjoyed ROM but this is sooooo much better.
Love Snatcher so much
I believe I did play this with the Menacer. I was a cool teen.
Man, I miss Jason
This music sounds exactly like T-Square

I've always wondered why the NK in JUNKER isn't Neo Kobe
They need to release this again for current consoles, or better yet, on PC with a new coat of paint ala Grim Fandago. I would seriously buy 10 copies.

+Kasaioni my understanding is that all the "tributes" within the game make it very difficult from a copyright standpoint

Jeez where was Dan? His Kojima fandom is slipping!
Also the music in this game is raaad
It seems like the music for every area has some kind of alarm and/or ticking in the background.
I think that's the "percussion"
+Apéritif 420 Percussion. Insanity. Same thing, right?
interesting information
Is that the narrator from Darkest Dungeon?!
OH MY GOD, I was literally just played this game on youtube last month.
Awwwwwww! I want my pizza!
Brad looks like he is losing some weight. Good for him! ;)
How do I get this game running? I tried it for like a days and gave up on it.
Gotta get that BIOS, son
Got it! Thanks m8s
Ah the good old Japan, but not Japan
Please, Giant Bomb, continue this and make it an LP of Snatcher.
It used the lethal enforcer guns as an option... another konami shooter.

+Anthony Tufo Quit being so ignorant.
Kish Jugo I didn't mention offense, and, since you mention it, westerner is inaccurate as well since it promotes a Euro-centric view of the world
Kish Jugo I don't really care
Did they ever continue Snatcher?
PLAY THE REST!
Kinda hoping for some Policenauts action.
Thank god there's no Rorie

I really wonder what Jason brings to the table, I think his personality is the absolute worst.
+Richard Aka Silver You are wrong Jason is great. Smart, funny and experience of the game mean that I think he adds a lot to this video and to giant bomb as a whole particularly when you realise he is actually hired for his video production skills.

+foxrenard Sure Sure go ad hominem, just shows how dumb you are kid.
+foxrenard everything you said is 100% correct.
I didn’t like him for a long time but he’s grown on me a lot lately. He’s not as one-dimensional as a lot of Jason haters make him sound
