I've received a lot of positive reception and negative reception on this video, and I very much appreciate it! I am proud of the jokes, the storytelling structure and the songs, and I'm glad a lot of people enjoyed it. However I also glossed over a large chunk of newer rhythm games/mobile games that a lot of people are very passionate over. I wanted to go more in detail at the end, but I made the decision to value storytelling rather than pay homage to the recent resurgence of rhythm games. Rather than a small collage at the end and "until a company can breathe life back into rhythm games" I should have gone more into detail, and I love seen some excellent points and feedback that I admire VERY VERY much. I played over 150 rhythm games in total, and this video took 9 months to make, and honestly I just wanted to get it out and over with. Which in hindsight I could have handled it a little better. I value all of your feedback cause this has been an excellent lesson in trying to constantly one up my content, and I hope you stick around to see what comes next and how I can improve after reflection on this video!
After working on a video for that long, it makes sense to want to stop it there. And since I'm already here, I might as well ask if you've played "Rhythm Doctor"? It's a pretty delightful "one button rhythm game" with a nice little story and fun music.
Hehe I play rhythm games (I'm curious have you tried etterna, Cytus 2, cytoid, quaver, deemo, phigros, arcacea, o2jam, wacca, or perhaps even possible osucatch?)
28:54 Small correction! The costume scoring system ONLY applies to Project DIVA X and Project DIVA XHD. In every other instalment the costumes and accesories have NO effect on score, or timing and are only for aesthetic purposes! Hope this helped! :3
the developer of osu! is not the same developer as elite beat agents, he only saw elite beat agents and wanted to create an emulator for pc that allowed users to create their own maps for it, it grew in popularity from word of mouth alone and has developed into what we know as osu! now. the name "osu!" also comes from the original japanese counterpart of elite beat agents called "Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan"
@@tnovuh be fuckin for real do you think that literally anyone who clicked on this video thought he was gonna play multiple variations of guitar hero, three Singstar games, and Kuma Uta? It should've been, AT MOST, 2 Guitar Heroes, 1 Singstar game, and idk maybe a rhythm game that has modern relevance?
@@idontknowwhattoput5851 When I clicked on this video, I expected to watch a dude play a bunch of mainstream, nostalgic, and random rhythm games. That's exactly what I got. Also, a pretty sizable amount of the rhythm games talked about or mentioned in this video have modern relevance and are some of the most POPULAR and commonly talked about rhythm games I've played, and heard about over the years. This video was also obviously made for fun and is only 30 minutes. It's not a 2 and a half hour long retrospective video essay about the history of rhythm games and their importance to culture or something. And lastly, I've seen so many videos that almost exclusively talk about mainstream rhythm games so seeing random ones like Singstar get brought back up after years of not hearing that name was actually pretty entertaining and refreshing. Lighten up a bit. Life is more fun that way
@tnovuh I am not saying that Singstar shouldn't have been included, but 3 games is like very excessive. Listen, I'd be perfectly fine w him just putting 5 repeats of each game, but he should at least put a disclaimer of that at the start of the video. When people think "101 rhythm games" the expectation is 101 DIFFERENT rhythm games, not 80 different rhythm games and then 3-5 variations of the same few rhythm games for the last few. I am not expected a super retrospective video, but it would've been nice if he at least acknowledged the repeats, cause that aint what some people are looking for. I enjoyed the video myself, but acting as if he did exactly what people thought he would is completely and utterly delusional, and its a perfectly valid thing to be disappointed about. And I dont even dislike the video, its just that people should be allowed to have different expectations of what the video could've been as long as they aint hating on him for it. No ones mad here, you just assume that we hatin' cause you're the one who cant tell the difference between a joke, an opinion, a criticism, and a hate comment. Also, I just said the modern relevance line in relation to your comment, cause god knows that its a lie when you said majority of the games here are the most popular ever, of course him talking about obscure games is fine. In fact, my comment isn't even supposed to be a direct criticism of him or his video in the first place, I only made the comment because I wanted to defend OPs comment from you, lol.
Feel like I should mention this but Pump It Up & DDR are two different game series made by two different companies. I had to mention this because you made it look like they were in the same ballpark.
I can't believe Xalem made a whole video just to release his new hit single. and how is it better than 90% of songs released by top artists these days?!
27:45 "Have you ever heard the music in star wars Kinect?" YES, and you picked the best parody from that game. Immediately started singing along and waving my arms like the move on screen. Love that song.
Honestly there's some points that are poorly researched or grossly misleading: 1) Beatmania did get a US home release. Also Beatmania IIDX got 30 releases while OG Beatmania got 8 and Beatmania III technically only 2 not including appends and side games. 2) Osu! has no connection to the developers of Elite Beat Agents/OSu! Taakae! Ouendan. 3) DDR , Pump it Up, and ITG are completely different games. Showing footage of the other two games while talking about DDR is the equivalent of talking about Guitar Hero while showing footage of Guitar Freaks and acting like its the same thing.
This video was really entertaining. As a huge rhythm game nerd its interesting to see the POV of someone that wasn't able to "jump ship" so to speak into the rest of the Japanese rhythm game scene. Rhythm games are super hardcore and aren't something most people will get into. Making these for casual play is a delicate balancing act that few have actually been able to achieve.
It's funny to me that in order for someone to even vaguely consider getting into something like IIDX they have to use note charts and songs from literally 20 years ago. Onboarding is definitely not that game's strong point.
Considering you have access to a round 1, I'd love to see a video about all the different arcade rhythm games there. I'm personally obsessed with a lot of those games, so seeing a sequel to this would be amazing :3
@@Xalem_Plays You also have a huge array of mobile rhythm games with various gimmicks, like multiple judgement lines, judgement lines that *move around*, tilt controls, and various other gimmicks.
Great video! Btw, at 21:17, the makers of rockband didn't copy singstar, they made a game prior to singstar called Karaoke Revolution. They just implemented what they created into rockband.
Love how Arknights OST was apparently used according to the description when they don't even have a rhythm game spin off, and only have collabs with Muse Dash and Cytus
29:13 The scoring for PDX is unique to PDX, none of the other games have the scoring system with the costume + accessories and it is only in cloud requests + event requests ! I also found most of the time you don't really need them to beat the songs unless you are doing the event requests ! I also don't recommend fcing in cloud requests as it won't save as an fc in free play (because of the effects of some costumes) Just think cloud/event requests to get the costumes and accessories and free play to actually get scores off of accuracy :3
There is some miss information. The DDR cabinet you labeled DDR 4 is actually the DDR A (Pronounce Ace) cabinet. It came out before the A20 (Ace Two Oh) Cabinet, the one you called 20th Anniversary which is correct since it's the gold model and not the blue. Osu! / Osu! Lazer on PC was not made by iNiS Corporation the developers of Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan (Known as Elite Beat Agents in the US) on the DS. Osu! / Osu Lazer on PC was made by Dean Herbert also known as Peppy. Great video otherwise
wow! this video is amazing! from the peak editing to having other people play off of your energy for some amazing bits, everything about the presentation of the video had my jaw dropped! i never thought that i needed an actual musician dissecting every single rhythm game known to man (including the persona rhythm games which i definitely did not expect) only to end out the video in an epic music video, but i am so glad that youtube recommended me this video! from now, i will be cheering you on on the sidelines, and i cannot wait to see what you do next!
25:51 "osu!" (stylized as all lowercase) was made by "peppy" (same deal) and has no involvement with the original dev team of Elite Beat Agents (aka Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan!)
This is bloody mint. Nice work dude. I understand the time and effort put into this AND THIS VIDEO DESERVES MORE ATTENTION. You are one of the most talented dudes I've seen on this website. Being able to play multiple instruments while also being able to master video games AND BE ABLE TO FILM AND EDIT HIGH QUALITY CONTENT? Like dude you are awesome and don't let these negative comments get to you. Keep it going dude! I genuinely think you can make it far on this website. I'm rooting for you!
this video was very well done. i loved the editing and there was some pretty hilarious moments. I'm hoping that if you ever make a follow up video on this, that you talk a tiny bit about spin rhythm xd. it's a really fun and unique rhythm game!!
Just stumbled across your channel. The format you use for your videos and how you engage with your viewers is honestly really catching. Definitely got a subscriber from me, look forward to binging your channel :)
Good video, im looking forward to a part 2 considering all of the comments are asking for it. I never expected Gitaroo Man to make an appearance, but I'm really happy it did. If I were to add some you should look at, Rhythm Doctor (especaially act 5) and A Dance of Fire and Ice are my personal favorites. Vivid/Stasis is also really cool even though I'm not very good at it.
24:28 KESSOKU BAND SPOTTED 32:53 the "idk" would be Chuntihm, which goes hard. Maybe I'm blind, but you show footage from a Round 1 location several times in this video and a handful of the games that are near-impossible to find outside of there eluded this video, and you should really give them all a good try if you haven't.
I throw around magnum opus a lot, but I know the STACKS of work that it took to make this and your love of music has never been more obvious! I only wish I could be the 5th backstreet boy
Really great video! I've been a huge rhythm game fan my whole life so it was fun go through the history of them, loved the song at the end as well! I'm surprised your channel isn't bigger, you've definitely earned a new subscriber! Excuse the infodump, but I think Dance Central was actually a really well made game, at least 2 and 3 were! Dance Central 3 had a really neat feature where if you were struggling with a song it'd let you pick a move or part of the song and 'break it down' into a slow step by step on how to do it. Just Dance was good for turn your brain off fun, but Dance Central always felt like it also offered ways to help me improve and work towards perfecting the songs. Harmonix put a lot of love into that game and I felt like each iteration only got better! Also I'm not sure if you're aware, but I think Project Diva X is the only release where the costumes affect your scores, in all the others the costumes are aesthetic only which feels much better to play! I'm looking forward to seeing future videos from you, in the meantime it looks like I've got a lot of your previous ones to catch up on!
@@Xalem_Plays Thanks for the response! A video or short comparing the two made by you would be awesome! They're both really great games and were a big part of my life growing up, even if I am a little more biased towards DC.
harmonix made gh1/2/80's. when gh80's released, activision bought red octane and red octane owned the gh ip. then harmonix made rockband because they still liked the formula and wanted to keep making games like it. thats the story of what went down for rockband to be a thing for anyone that dont know
9:04 I got into drumming via drummania (or it's unofficial PC port, DTXMania) and I can vouch for it being a good intro and gamification method for playing drums, I think the UI is pretty intuitive and the accuracy of _most_ charts on hardest difficulty are accurate to how you'd play on a real kit
Oh my god dude this is AMAZING!!! How do you have so few subs??? The production quality is amazing, and your original song (I think) at the end was great as well! As a fellow guitar player, I can appreciate the effort put in here. You've earned yourself a subscriber, keep up the good work :)
oh wow :D you've gone through quite the journey! i love the production of this video you've done fantastically my favorite game of all time is actually "metal hellsinger" unironically.
"I played 101 rhythm games!" plays eleven copies of guitar hero, and not a single game of the Patapon trilogy mid video 7/10 taiko and rhythm heaven carried
agreed. not to mention he trashed on Dance Central even though it objectively takes more skill and accuracy bc of the Kinect full body tracking than Just Dance on the Wii 😭
10:49 YES. this game is getting some love. this was my 1st introduction to Rhythm games ALSO YES. Kitty Nakajima's song IS the best song in that game altho Kelly, Hero, Shorty and Pinky had bangers as well. THESE games deserve a remake
I would like to suggest beat hazard games. The concept is that you put music in then do a bullet hell like game that’s in sync with the music you chose. Just the first one is already insanely good, the only problem is it is unbelievably epileptic with so many god damn flashing lights. Other than that this was a great video to watch.
This video was so damn good! The Donkey Konga line at the very end was the cherry on top! I am surprised you didn't mention the pro intrunent modes of Rock Band 3 tho. I think you would have really enjoyed them.
The Project Diva thing is incorrect by the way--just throwing that in there :P You can play the game without adjusting the outfits at all and not have to worry about it whatsoever. That's how I play. Passing a song is entirely dependent on your skill at the game.
I WANT to do a second verse at some point. But I wanted to keep it simple for now. Know my limits. (: (Will definitely update when there's a second verse though)
If youre not telling me that this guys favorite youtuber is scott the woz, you are lying to me. But in full honesty, this video was edited to perfection and it was really funny. Good work
i had the dance pad as a kid and it was my fav game omg i would play with it for hours. we didnt have any arcades near me and even now the only arcade opened two years ago and is an hour away from me
You also missed a lot of modern Arcade games For example: Sound Voltex maimai CHUNITHM O.N.G.E.K.I. WACCA jubeat There’s also a lot of other rhythm games that you either missed or glossed over such as: A Dance of Fire and Ice Rhythm Doctor vivid/stasis osu! Muse Dash Beat Saber
I e seen all your comments, and LOVE your passion. I debated on doing MORE than 101, and played truthfully 150+. But I knew if I kept going and editing if never stopped, so for my own sanity I kept it to 101! That didn't stop me from playing Muse Dash for 6 hours straight lol
@@Xalem_Plays Ah alr lol Keep up the good work btw, even though i may come off as negative your vids and style is so good and i like em a lot :D Youre super underrated
Honestly, despite how taxing it may be to play rhythm games constantly in a stretch if you want to do a follow-up video I would suggest the fan communities of OSU! Guitar Hero (Clone Hero) and FNF (Friday Night Funkin) as those communities hard carry having consistent charts to be challenged by. FNF might shock you with how insane the community is about the mods if you at least choose to ignore drama that seems to rise up a bunch. Would also like to see the footage in which you played these possibly uploaded to YT as it seems that your thoughts weren't fully portrayed when you went into montage mode.
Every single time people make the same mistake LMAO. I guess in a way I'm glad Beatmania didn't take off globally because if it did we'd be getting the same thing but with EZ2DJ (I love PIU and EZ2DJ)
i heard dream theater and my mind activated and i emediatly thought of my mom and my dads and my fav song "a change of seasons live at rossland theater" that 20 min song goes HARD oh and PON PON you missed PON PON

Also I'm not sure if you're aware, but I think Project Diva X is the only release where the costumes affect your scores, in all the others the costumes are aesthetic only which feels much better to play!
I'm looking forward to seeing future videos from you, in the meantime it looks like I've got a lot of your previous ones to catch up on!
I've been wanting to compare the two, maybe for a short or so! That gives me some ideas and whatnot 👀
@@Xalem_Plays Thanks for the response! A video or short comparing the two made by you would be awesome! They're both really great games and were a big part of my life growing up, even if I am a little more biased towards DC.
michael jackson the experience is a game i remember playing im my after school program back in 2016 for wii. how i missed those days
100 is Chunithm
I would have expected you to mention Rocksmith.
very well made video, i enjoyed it! i hope it gets more views
harmonix made gh1/2/80's. when gh80's released, activision bought red octane and red octane owned the gh ip. then harmonix made rockband because they still liked the formula and wanted to keep making games like it. thats the story of what went down for rockband to be a thing for anyone that dont know
9:04 I got into drumming via drummania (or it's unofficial PC port, DTXMania) and I can vouch for it being a good intro and gamification method for playing drums, I think the UI is pretty intuitive and the accuracy of _most_ charts on hardest difficulty are accurate to how you'd play on a real kit
Oh my god dude this is AMAZING!!! How do you have so few subs??? The production quality is amazing, and your original song (I think) at the end was great as well! As a fellow guitar player, I can appreciate the effort put in here. You've earned yourself a subscriber, keep up the good work :)
Completely ignored the mobile rhythm games like: Phigros, Arcaea, Orzmic, Lanota and so much more
the fact that you only have 7k subs is absolutely mind boggling
keep up the great work big dawg
Thanks! I appreciate kind words like these!
Underrated and That's alot of rhythm games geez!
This better be a musical
I'm pleased.
oh wow :D you've gone through quite the journey!
i love the production of this video you've done fantastically
my favorite game of all time is actually "metal hellsinger" unironically.
"I played 101 rhythm games!"
plays eleven copies of guitar hero, and not a single game of the Patapon trilogy
mid video 7/10 taiko and rhythm heaven carried
agreed. not to mention he trashed on Dance Central even though it objectively takes more skill and accuracy bc of the Kinect full body tracking than Just Dance on the Wii 😭
Brother this is one of the most fun and entertaining videos I've seen uploaded in a while. Can't wait to see what you make in the future.
Yoo great video!! Really appreciated the two Taiko no tatsujin references lmao. Anyway, hilarious video, I really enjoyed it
10:49 YES. this game is getting some love. this was my 1st introduction to Rhythm games ALSO YES. Kitty Nakajima's song IS the best song in that game altho Kelly, Hero, Shorty and Pinky had bangers as well. THESE games deserve a remake
I would like to suggest beat hazard games. The concept is that you put music in then do a bullet hell like game that’s in sync with the music you chose. Just the first one is already insanely good, the only problem is it is unbelievably epileptic with so many god damn flashing lights. Other than that this was a great video to watch.
wow super underated chanel . this was amazing
also osu! isnt made by the guys who made EBA
it was a fanmade version that ended up growing into its own thing
Glossing over beatmania and iidx like that is criminal tbh
*ddr*
*pump it up is shown*
this hurts me way more than it should :'D
holy fuck i just started this video drunk and suffered from audio whiplash
Super underrated, fun video man!
18:13 That "Trogdor!!!" sent me back, holy cow. I miss HSR.
Taiko barely made 5 seconds 😂😢
This video was so damn good! The Donkey Konga line at the very end was the cherry on top! I am surprised you didn't mention the pro intrunent modes of Rock Band 3 tho. I think you would have really enjoyed them.
i do have some problems that you've already aknowledged but otherwise, this was a fantastic video! Loved the storytelling and jokes, new sub for sure.
The Project Diva thing is incorrect by the way--just throwing that in there :P You can play the game without adjusting the outfits at all and not have to worry about it whatsoever. That's how I play. Passing a song is entirely dependent on your skill at the game.
Loving the original piece! My only problem with it is that it ends when it feels like it's starting to pick up!
I WANT to do a second verse at some point. But I wanted to keep it simple for now. Know my limits. (:
(Will definitely update when there's a second verse though)
If youre not telling me that this guys favorite youtuber is scott the woz, you are lying to me. But in full honesty, this video was edited to perfection and it was really funny. Good work
Taylor Swift just dropped her new album and here I am listening to Right Now by Xalem... I'm okay with this.
My Roommate is playing Fortnite, and here I am listening to Fortnight.
omg, bust-a-Groove is such OG dude, never expected it to appear in the vid, haha
5:32 that's actually footage of pump it up, not DDR
5:46
hey how did you get my wallet?!
0:23
That Periphery shirt is so peak
That twerk on the Tom Morello guitar battle 😂😂😂😂😂
The Enperry-brand cap gives +15 charisma to whosoever equips it
i had the dance pad as a kid and it was my fav game omg i would play with it for hours. we didnt have any arcades near me and even now the only arcade opened two years ago and is an hour away from me
This quality with only 7k subs? Bro you deserve much more!!
You also missed a lot of modern Arcade games
For example:
Sound Voltex
maimai
CHUNITHM
O.N.G.E.K.I.
WACCA
jubeat
There’s also a lot of other rhythm games that you either missed or glossed over such as:
A Dance of Fire and Ice
Rhythm Doctor
vivid/stasis
osu!
Muse Dash
Beat Saber
I e seen all your comments, and LOVE your passion.
I debated on doing MORE than 101, and played truthfully 150+. But I knew if I kept going and editing if never stopped, so for my own sanity I kept it to 101!
That didn't stop me from playing Muse Dash for 6 hours straight lol
@@Xalem_Plays
Ah alr lol
Keep up the good work btw, even though i may come off as negative your vids and style is so good and i like em a lot :D
Youre super underrated
Honestly, despite how taxing it may be to play rhythm games constantly in a stretch if you want to do a follow-up video I would suggest the fan communities of OSU! Guitar Hero (Clone Hero) and FNF (Friday Night Funkin) as those communities hard carry having consistent charts to be challenged by. FNF might shock you with how insane the community is about the mods if you at least choose to ignore drama that seems to rise up a bunch. Would also like to see the footage in which you played these possibly uploaded to YT as it seems that your thoughts weren't fully portrayed when you went into montage mode.
I would rather recommend stepmania/osu!mania over FNF if you don't care about presentation and just want to play a bunch of songs.
Honestly don't even get into the mods. The base game is perfect and less of a hassle to play.
Loved the video, but also unless I completely missed it while playing with my cat....I am devestated that Space Channel 5 isn't here.
1:41 Killer queen. Bites the dust.
I love how the bocchi the rock anime is on his spotify wrapped 😭
8:07 MARIO BOAT HANDSPRING WHATEVER IT'S CALLED
Gotta tell my kids that he is scott the woz
30:55 You forgot mobile rhythm games, I mean, there's Phigros, Arcaea, Rotaneo, Beatstars, Kalpa, Paradigm: Reboot...
23:00 emu otori spotted, i'm happy
0:44 Nice D5 bro
My guy played every rhythm game except mobile rhythm games
This video is so cool! How did you get your hands on all these games?
sorry to be like this but when you show DDR you also showed a Korean game called Pump It Up just wanted you to know that
Every single time people make the same mistake LMAO.
I guess in a way I'm glad Beatmania didn't take off globally because if it did we'd be getting the same thing but with EZ2DJ
(I love PIU and EZ2DJ)
The stick figure squat meme sent me, sub earned XD
i heard dream theater and my mind activated and i emediatly thought of my mom and my dads and my fav song "a change of seasons live at rossland theater" that 20 min song goes HARD
oh and PON PON you missed PON PON
6:41 that wire shape💀💀💀
6:09 wait a minute...
That's High Point North Carolina?
I've been to that exact location toms of times wth
Please Rainbolt...don't tell anyone I was at Putt Putt Fun Center on N Main Street in High Point, NC!
Metal Hellsinger is my newest favorite rhythm game since guitar hero
