    I completely missed all these games somehow as a kid, so it's nice to see what they were like through your videos.
    I do have sympathy for the writers of the Samurai Jack games since their hands were tied with the conclusion of the story.
    You did unlock the memory of the frustration of the jump good episode ending so thanks for that 🤣

    What's even more impressive with Samurai Jack is that the characters don't even have outlines.

    "But I never really used it"
    Poor shadow. Outdone by his own Leet Gamer Skills.

    Shame that this is the one of the only & last times we hear Aku being voiced by Mako in a Samurai Jack video game. Honestly, this is one of the few CN games that seems very enjoable to play, compared to many others.

    Good to see you again. Loving your licensed video game reviews you've done so far. Hope to see more of those, like Billy & Mandy, Kids Next Door, Johnny Bravo, Foster's, Camp Lazlo and the remaining ones from Dexter and PPG. I'm also kinda curious what you'd say about the Nicktoons Unite games.

    Another solid PS2 Cartoon Network game is Codename Kids Next Door: Operation Videogame. Solid control, decent level design, and some well done gameplay variety.

      If you can, I recommend a channel named Cartoon Review. It's a channel that has reviewed practically every single Cartoon Network game, and is doing the same for Nickelodeon games. You two would honestly make for a good collaboration video.

      @@ShadowStreak That's not dissimilar to the problem I had with the time slowing mechanic in Samus Returns- I'd mentally cast it off as a "Oh, this is just for making things easier, it's either not important or a crutch", so when the game designed mechanics around it more than the short semi-tutorial time after getting it... I just got annoyed at them instead of figuring them out.

    After looking at the graphics for this game, wouldn't it have been interesting if there was an episode of the show where Jack entered some CGI world (a la 'Homer^3 from "The Simpsons"') to battle some random villain? Just a random idea I thought of.
    Can't wait to hear about those "Danny Phantom" games, though.

    The whole "downward aerial attack being universally OP" holds true in Elden Ring. Jump attacking is broken.

    Not gonna lie, The downward slash move reminds me of Ratchet's downward wrench attack move from the Ratchet and Clank games.

    I thought the game was too easy even on max difficulty, also there was an annoying trick to the last 2 fights. Throughout the game, you get upgrades to your sword to do more damage, but for some reason the fight against Mad Jack and the fight against Aku are barely affected by the upgraded Swords, you have to use the base form Sword to do damage- which the game doesn't tell you, you just have to figure it out.
