I wouldn't say the Rabbids were something to try and rival the Minions considering the first three games which featured the Rabbids all came out before Despicable Me. There's definitely some similarities, and maybe they tried to capitalize on the Minions' popularity, but they definitely existed 4 years before the Minions ever first showed up
exactly!! i vaguely remember playing a really weird rabbids game where you had to steal enough stuff to build a tower to the moon in like 2009 and him saying that made me question my entire reality lol
I remember the day I bought Dragons Dogma. I went to a gamestop and traded in some old games I never played (was a kid, so I didn't realize how badly the trade in system screwed me over), and I didn't want to leave empty handed, but the game I had originally come to pick up a copy of was unfortunately sold out and they had no idea if they were going to get another copy since the only copies they had were used. So I looked around at the other 360 games and there wasn't really anything that caught my eye. So I picked up the closest thing that looked mildly interesting and that was Dragon's Dogma. I figured, I live like 10 minutes walk from the store, I'm here like every day after school, if I don't like it, I can just return it for full price tomorrow. I had ZERO clue prior about the absolute diamond I had just discovered. The original JRock title song "IntoFree" by Dangan was on blast at least a few times a week for months on end after that. I played the hell out of that game. I STILL, nearly a decade later, play the hell out of that game. I just wrapped up another playthrough last week. I have been one of those avid fans of the Dragon's Dogma franchise since before Dark Arisen DLC was announced. I still struggle to get my friends to play it, meanwhile they whine about stuff like MK1 being lackluster with ruined pvp and ToTK not recapturing the magic of BotW. If only they knew.
Mad Max is actually such an awesome game, it was one of the first games I got on my first Xbox One. Very underrated & i highly recommend it to anyone who hasn’t tried it 🤙
I enjoyed it, not an amazing game, but it was fun. And I loved the Arkham style fighting system. Some of the controls were wonky. I enjoyed that you had to refuel your car, that was a great mechanic.
My favorite thing about Alien: Isolation is it's innovation in AI technology. The Alien runs on a completely separate AI than the rest of the entire game itself, simultaneously, and it thinks pretty well on its own.
in this case though its just procedural code it isnt some neural network AI which quite possibly makes it even better, but its not AI in the sense of machine learning
The fact that one of the AI in the Alien is actively trying to get you caught while the other is actively looking for you anyway makes it feel like it’s two against one.
I had forgotten up until now that Falcon is the reason i ended up buying Mad Max. After playing it i couldn't wait to tell everyone just how awesome it was
Mario + rabbids was amazing! Not so much the sequel but man, I couldn't put it down! I got 3 games with my switch way back but this was the only game I played exclusively. Funnily enough, I just picked it back up yesterday as I was going tidying thru my games I spotted it and thought "yea, why not". Definitely one of the greatest surprise titles of the recent years. I'd rank it right up there with Journey
I bought No mans sky day 1. I remember enjoying it but ultimately saw its short comings and the lack of overall content. I put about 70 hours on it over the course of like three months. Once i put it away that was it. I downloaded it again about 6 months ago. Absolutely bonkers what they did to it. I would say No Mans Sky is the greatest comeback for a game from a very rough launch to date. Its am incredible game. I wanna try it in VR sometime. The sticky icky plus NMS is a guaranteed good time, every time.
Dead Island 2 being as good as it is was practically a miracle. Mad Max was pretty damn good. I bought it cheap years after release after watching CallMeKevin play it on his channel and I actually liked the look of it. The only problem I have with the game was that it was too short. It felt like the story only lasted 3 hours or so. GOTG is great.
DI2 is a shell of the first game. It really was something that was scrapped a thousand times and cobbled together super quick to get it out. The card perk system is really the only thing it has going. Otherwise, each area is incredibly small and has very little replayability. It feels like a chore to do anything in the game.
@@StellarCosmic1the story, the lack of exploration, bad quest design, bad characters. It has decent melee combat and good gore, the guns feel like toys, despite the game being set in California is also has low enemy density. It definitely feels more like a AA game instead of a AAA game. It’s a 5-6/10 it’s definitely not good it’s mediocre to a little below mediocre. Tacked on perk card system that doesn’t offer much in a gameplay changing viewpoint.
Actually amazing seeing how far NMS has come over the years from the chaos engine it was at first. Good job filling everyone in on that one, Falc, I think more people need to try it! 💜🤘
I agree! I originally started the game and did not complete the first mission and began playing another game. I then went back to play the game about a year or so later and was wondering why I never kept going in the first place! It was fantastic and I think it even got nominated for best narrative and may have one at the game awards that year
Honestly Gameranx, you're my daily entertainment for quite some time now, with great, no, awesome videos and topics, Falcon and Jake you guys definitely need to know how incredible you guys are, and I thank you for that
It's a very unique channel compared to their peers. They way they cover news is entertaining in a way where I dont even think you need to play video games to enjoy following the industry. Heck, when I started watching, I only played sports games. Thats still mostly true, but if there is an exception, it's probably because I tried something at their suggestion. Never any clickbait, and I cant really recall a time where I took their word on something and felt misled. I pray that never changes.
Yeah, Dragon's Dogma. Took me like 10 hrs to figure out what this game was? It didn't come across as a real RPG, but once the game out, OMG what a joy to play. Good list Gameranx
One of the deva said they had DLC ready to go begged the publisher to push the launch a month so it didn't launch on the same day as mgsv and still got shafted
I think the Rabbids game's success was the connection to the controller and the interface. You have the circle kind of match the thumbstick and it allows for more intuitive control.
First of all, a huge thanks for your videos, it's always refreshing and handy to build our knowledge about games, but something bugs me out on this one : weren't the Rabbids created before the Minions ? I'm a french guy and I'm pretty sure I was watching Rabbids shorts on french tv, long before Despicable Me was out. But in any case, you make it cristal clear they're related in terms of creation and characterization, and so again, thanks !
DOOM 2016 is just something else... When you beat that laser trap and finally get the BFG.. That was so damn hype, I legit had tears in my eyes, doing it. I jumped out of my chair and screamed of joy. And then decimated the living daylight out of those pesky demons.
I was actually very optimistic about The Guardians before it came out so it was really great to see that the game was incredibly awesome! I loved every minute spent in it and couldn't stop playing it so I finished it in 2 days :P I *highly* recommend it!
One that sticks with me personally because it's one of my favorite series of all time is Kingdom Hearts 1. Sort of in the same spirit as Mario + Rabbids, I remember a lot of the initial reaction to the proposition of "Combining Final Fantasy and Disney characters in an ACTION RPG" was largely "....but...why?". But when it finally came out, man did it deliver. The quality of the series as it went on is debatable of course (although the series as a whole is still a personal favorite), but at the very least, KH1 and 2 were objectively amazing games, especially at the time of release.
While I agree Guardians of the Galaxy is an excellent game with a great story (even The Avengers has a great story buried underneath all of its crap), it’s painfully obvious the game started life as a live service. The gameplay appears to, at times, be a single player version of The Avengers gameplay. I think the game pivoted after The Avengers bombed.
@@leonr1985 I didn’t not just come here last year. What you on about? Been watching these guys for ages now (Haven’t been subscribed the entire time tho) and only just recently started commenting on stuff🫡
Doom 2106 story and setting was great. Alien Isolation had your heart beating. And Max Max definitely is a sleeper game. Great list Gameranx, hit the nail on the head.
It’s really unbelievable that Dead Island 2 finally released, and the game is genuinely great. It’s not a perfect game, or _Game of the Year_ content, but the fact the game went through almost a decade of development and avoided cancellation-then finally released in a solid game, is phenomenal. The game ran smoothly, the gore details were the best in gaming history, and the overall gameplay is fun. Just wish we had more enemy variety, longer story, and an actual final boss that wasn’t a reskin of a previous enemy. But for the game to release running this smoothly, this polished, and actually fun, is something extraordinary when you take into consideration the development hell it went through.
Only thing good about it is graphics and gore. Story was garbage, characters were boring, even the zombie types were lame. Only reason it got as much hype as it did was because of graphics and combat. Dead island one was miles ahead of 2 for the time period it was released
@@jacobchitwood4365the entire point of these kind of zombie games is the combat. If you went into this game or other games like the first dead island or the dying light games expecting a top notch story and characters these games aren't for you😂
Your complaints about DI2 are easily applicable to Dead Island 1. DI2 IS a fun game...the combat is fun, the zombie types are fun. Could it use more? Yeah...I don't know what you want as far as protags go. They're typical Dead Island protags.
Something that also helped with the success of Baldur's Gate 3 is their complete transparency into NOT adding Microtransactions or any other form to monetize the players in an era where every dang thing needs to be monetized, even the color of aim in some FPS games. I think, Diablo IV kind of helped with the RPG boom, and it was so bad that people tried BG3!
And the edition that came with the soundtrack, art book, and character sheets was only $10....which basically the price of a CD, which I think is so refreshing. Edit: $10 more than the standard edition, I mean.
Mad Max was one game that was actually worth playing for the Platinum Trophy in PS...The story, the side missions and the best was fight physics. Truly underrated gem
I loved it but a bug in it made me fail getting 100% completion as my locations were stuck on 98% and I'd done everything to do in the game, this really annoyed me as I'm a completionist and I really wanted that platinum... Other than this damn annoying thing, I really enjoyed the game, it's a very underrated, great PS4 game.
To me dead island 2 looks too serious a big portion of why I enjoyed the 1st is it was kind of silly 2 looks like a much more serious approach which I personally am not too fond of in this style of game.
I bought Sonic Frontiers hoping to God it was going to be good, and it was, but I had been burned so much that after a couple of hours of playing it I figured it was too good to be true and expected something to ruin it the more i played it. Then I saw the update map and thought to myself I'll give it another try when the updates come out. I was weak when they added the original music from past Sonic games. I still haven't finished the game, but the thing that keeps pulling me back is the fact that I still haven't found the OG Sonic Riders opening song, and I'm on a mission to find it
I think it's good, but it's honestly just dreadful in art style. The game doesn't look good. The gameplay really saved it and is giving the franchise new hope. All they really have to focus on now is the art and world settings.
@KuilowKey I actually loved the art style. It felt like a blend of the past and modern Sonic games with a slightly older voice acting to emphasize the passage of time
The craziest thing about the Mario + Rabbids game was that it wasn't even developed by Nintendo, it was only published by them. Ubisoft ended up having alot more passion for the Mario license than initially thought and you can tell they had fun making this game.
I played no man’s sky for like 500 hrs. That game is good and fun. Play it if you have any interest. I would get lost out in the deepest parts of the galaxy. I just wanted to see what was over the next hill, so to speak. I saw some truest awe inspiring things on my travels.
Currently playing through Guardians of the Galaxy. Outside a few bugs, it's been a fun experience that was definitely more than I was expecting after Avengers.
Man, after years of hearing how great Mad Max was, I found a sealed copy on eBay for like $10 and gave it a shot a few months ago. That game is freaking awesome! I loved Fury road when it came out and even though it isn't really a tie in (sorta prequel I guess) it fits really well together. I didn't even know the game existed until well after the fact. Such a fun time! The only bummer is that the servers are all shut off so there is no way to get the 100%/Platinum.
Pleasantly surprised to hear Dragon's Dogma get a mention. When I tried it on a whim, I immediately hit up all my gamer friends asking why no one had recommended it yet and why everyone was sleeping on it. Tons of fun.
yeah, game was great. I must of put at least a couple hundred hours into it when I got it on my ps3 back in the day. the fact you had to make yourself and your pawn giants or else you wont have a lot of carry weight was hilarious too. lmao
Same, my friends just said it's something like just another attack button masher, guessing they dropped it before any big enemy shows up, till I showed them I can climb the huge dragon and stab them in the eye
Yeah, I found on the online store for Xbox 360 while browsing the store for interesting demos to try, since just about every game let you download demos for them at the time. I played the demo, beat the Chimera, and absolutely KNEW I had to have this game. Got a used copy of the game from GameStop a few days later and have repurchased the game on every console it's come out on (that I have access to) ever since.
Sonic Frontiers I'm willing to go on record, and keep saying it for as long as possible (or until Frontiers 2 releases), that it's easily one of the best 3D Sonic games I've played! Up there with Unleashed & Generations. Yes, the visuals could've been much better. But the feel of just running around at the speed of sound, and doing whatever you want in an open-area, is exactly what I wanted from a Sonic game! The Super Sonic fights are incredible! The story is one of the best from a Sonic game! Especially now that we've got a more fleshed out ending with The Final Horizon DLC! Which adds Amy, Knuckles & Tails as playable characters for the 1st time since at least Sonic '06! Arguably, this DLC comes with it's own set of issues (like cutscene audio going out, and some intense difficulty spikes regardless of difficulty settings, etc.), which can hopefully be patched before moving onto the next game. Either way, I'm excited for the future of Open-Zone Sonic games! Such a great package here!
Baldur’s Gate 3 is my first foray into CRPGs. And because of it, I have even made the step into ARPGs another genre I previously ignored. So this game has definitely made an impact. It literally opened two genres to me that I had ignored for my 35 years on this earth.
Having played the original two I'm very heistent to actually play this one when it comes to Xbox my brothers are ready to play it tho and the thought of screwing with their game at every turn seems like too much fun to pass up
I remember when FF7 did that for me with jRPGs ages ago. I was so happy to have a new rabbit hole. Enjoy your new foray! Just know that as great as some of those other titles are, nothing is even close to BG3. What they pulled off was absolutely groundbreaking as far as movement and setting usage. But hey, dust off the OG BGs at some point. They’re dated, but still very enjoyable. Especially 2. If you dig em, I’d go with Icewind Dale after that.
Baldurs Gate - "It's a niche PC RPG".............. No it is not! It is right up there with Icewind Dale and Neverwinter Nights..... I would even say that Baldurs Gate 2 was probably one of the best "classic" RPGs ever made.
It's niche in that only the people who played those games might've played it, and that's not a lot of people. I only played them because my dad had them and I liked watching him play them when I was very little. The whole genre was a little niche before BG3 came out.
Alien isolation is a gem. One of the all time greatest games. Sad that it didn't get a sequel and now its developers, creative assembly have been "restructured" by sega
1:52 - the Hoots clone bug. You can see clone Hoots' shoulder bottom right. Theyve patched it out I think, but that would get you stuck in dialogue with them so you wouldnt be able to do anything else.
I hope devs of such good games watch these kinds of videos and feel proud of their work. The hardwork and creativity of the game devs is what that should be appreciated more.
Baldur's Gate 3 demonstrates that PC gaming has been in need of a game like this for quite some time. Underestimating this remarkable game only highlights the current direction of modern gaming, but in reality, gamers are yearning for something different, something akin to what this game offers.
PC gaming has had games similar, just not of that scale and popularity. Steam is filled with story rich RPG's that stay away from micro-transactions, story pack updates, ect. If anything, it's doing more for console gaming imo
@@bingobongo1615I don't agree. I believe firmly there's a real gamers backlash brewing. It's the one medium where people are really connected. You're going to have a sea of casuals who play COD and only COD and mobile. But that leaves a massive gap in the market. nd anyone who understands gaming is going to be eating just fine.
I knew No Mans Sky was going to be on this list. It’s come so far since launch. People really didn’t believe that it would amount to anything or even turn out to be that good. 7 years of free updates, bug fixes and improvements and not a single micro transaction ever. Hello games is the perfect example of what a game development company should be.
@@jumpbeatshootit was. It was just way over hyped so a bunch of people bought it with no idea what it actually was and then got mad. Its funny to me that people talk about how much "better" NMS is now because at its core its the same game it was at launch. You just have more other things to do.
@@AD-df5tm that is true, but atleast HG learned from their mistakes and rectified the problem, that may be considered the bare minimum to a lot of gamers but atleast they didn’t take the money and run. Overall tho, it’s great that they’ve listened to feedback and improved the game
I applaud Hello Games for sticking to their guns but saying that they are "the perfect example of what a game development company should be" is wild. 7 years of free updates came after releasing a game that was a bare minimum sparse if I'm being generous. No Mans Sky was unfinished on release. Sure they used the sales money to improve the game, however I'm frankly tired of companies releasing unfinished games and then using the "promise" of improving the game as an excuse to avoid criticism and keep people's money. If Hello Games releasing a new game in the future and it actually is complete and what they marketed it as on release, then they can be considered a model for other companies. As it stands now, they're still a cautionary tale.
@@AD-df5tmNo, it wasn't. If it was then they wouldn't have needed to fix it for 2 years. Don't forget THEY were the ones that overhyped it, not the fans.
Yeah dead island 2 is damn good in my book. I didnt really experience any glitches or bugs messing the game up on PS5. Looked great too start to finish. The nailed it. The long wait was worth it. Nioh 1 & 2 was just addictive. Mad Max was hot. I still have it for xbox one. I just never finished it
Nioh was one of the best games I ever played. I played ds 1,3, sekiro and Elden Ring. Haven't played BloodBorne cuz i didn't own ps4. And i don't think Nioh could top off the Souls games but wht makes Nioh really good is the variety of weapons that u get. The soundtrack was really good as well. Especially the final main story mission's background ost. And then Nioh 2 expands the variety even further. Nioh was a W imo.
@@PhaRoaH87 Nah i played rpgs like skyrim and witcher 2,3 and some others. Played Zelda botw, all of pokemon titles including scarlet and violet. Played city simulation games like simcity 4 and 2013, cities XL, XXL, cities skylines, Anno 1800, age of empires 1,3 1st person shooters wasn't my thing but i played cyberpunk, bioshock 1 and infinite. Played Nier automata and replicant. Played all the assassin's creed titles. Played cuphead but i haven't really played hollow knight after an hour into the game. I will one day tho. Played all of Gow games. Played dmc 5. Gonna try out dmc 1 to 4 next month. I am a fanboi of fromSoftware games but wht can i say they make really good games. I heard that ds2 was bad. I haven't played it tho.
@@jarse1991 Bruh...I might play bloodborne one day. Maybe at my friend's place who might own a ps4/pro. But nobody owns it sadly. And I ain't gonna buy a ps4 at this point of time lol
It's basically a looter soulslike. Maybe not as good as Fromsoft titles, but it's a great soulslike. Play Nioh 2 if you haven't, as if pretty much improved everything.
No mans sky didnt prove people wrong… They are lying thiefs with some later remorse… still unacceptable how the lied and released the game. Terrible example for the gaming industry- release broken messes you lie about if you later deliver
What also boosted BG3's success is before its release is that all the games on that very time are either unoptimized, devs doing public apologies, microtransactions here and there, and the most important part - lack of a full-package release once bought - until BG3 went out and showed the world that there is still hope~
That and let's face it BG2 was one of THE most highly praised games EVER released on PC. It's right up there with Quake II, Age of Empires II and Diablo II as one of THE top 10 games of the Windows 95-XP era. (Funny how all the best ones were sequels. Guess the devs learned from the first ones?)
I just picked up a copy of Guardians of the Galaxy for the PS5 a couple of weeks ago for $20 at Walmart. I'd heard how good (and underrated) the game is, so when I saw a copy in the bargain section of the Playstation games I decided to grab it. Haven't gotten around to trying it out yet, but I'm looking forward to eventually getting to it (got a huge backlog of games and so little time...)
I bought Mad Max after I saw my old man playing it, seemed interesting, and I helped him with some of the combat too, I'd enjoyed the likes of Interstate 76 and 82, so the vehicle combat also appealed to me, bought it, finished it, enjoyed it, and have never regretted it.
Not a PC RPG gamer, but damn I spent 200+ hours in baldur’s gate even tho up til this day I don’t really understand how DnD works LOL and still finding new things after new playthrough 🔥
00:04 Baldur's Gate 3 surpassed all expectations with over 10 million copies sold 02:19 Bethesda's Doom faced doubts but proved critics wrong 04:17 Nioh exceeded everyone's expectations. 06:23 Alien: Isolation surpassed expectations and gained positive reputation over time 08:17 Hello Games persevered and improved No Man's Sky against all odds. 10:25 Sonic Frontiers exceeded expectations and became the best-selling 3D Sonic game of all time. 12:44 Dead Island 2 defied low expectations and was a success 14:35 Mad Max and Guardians of the Galaxy proved skeptics wrong 16:39 Guardians of the Galaxy proved doubters wrong 18:34 Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle defied expectations 20:31 Capcom's game defied expectations
I keep having to remind myself that Alien Isolation came out in 2014. I got it around 2017 when I believe it resurged in popularity. Put in the context of being so early in the last gen life cycle, it really is an impressive game.
I didn’t beat the game until last year. It was a game that I keep putting down over and over. I bought the switch port because I kept hearing it was the best version. Finally gave it a try and I was hooked
I always thought I was the only one to actually like NMS when it first came out because,at the time, I was just so excited to have a space exploration game! I've always been a total space nerd since childhood so it was enough for me! 😆 Lol,imagine my face when I took a break and came back AFTER the updates! Felt like I reinstalled a whole new game!! 🤯 NMS will forever be one of my fav games of all time 👌🏾💯
You are so well spoken and I always know I can trust your takes. Side note: if you did audio books I would be never not listen, you have passion in your voice and it's so incredible to hear
Mad Max should have been a runaway success, because it's a freaking amazing game. It's so satisfying. The combat, the driving, the atmosphere - unparalleled and impactful, all.
The thing that helped with Doom (2016), at least for me, was the speed and their aggressive AI system. They designed it so if you stood still, the demons got more accurate so it pressed you to never stop moving and be aggressive.
I wouldn't say the Rabbids were something to try and rival the Minions considering the first three games which featured the Rabbids all came out before Despicable Me. There's definitely some similarities, and maybe they tried to capitalize on the Minions' popularity, but they definitely existed 4 years before the Minions ever first showed up

Overrated mediocre minimal effort in my opinion but to each their own I guess 🤔 felt like Batman Arkham asylum but with a car

I know Falcon is not a great person but don't blame him for your stupidity and besides Mad Max is a very very Cheap game
Ive tried to like it but I just couldn’t get used to the driving mechanic that shit sucked. And I couldn’t bring myself to play it any longer.
Mario + rabbids was amazing!
Not so much the sequel but man, I couldn't put it down! I got 3 games with my switch way back but this was the only game I played exclusively.

I mean, their entire studio went under during development. I mean literally. There was a flood. The water was 7 feet high in their office.
give them the anthem rights. or bungie they need smthn after destiny tanks
Dead Island 2 being as good as it is was practically a miracle.
Mad Max was pretty damn good. I bought it cheap years after release after watching CallMeKevin play it on his channel and I actually liked the look of it.
The only problem I have with the game was that it was too short. It felt like the story only lasted 3 hours or so.

Actually amazing seeing how far NMS has come over the years from the chaos engine it was at first. Good job filling everyone in on that one, Falc, I think more people need to try it! 💜🤘
Guardians of the Galaxy was so much fun. I unlocked everything in that game. Really wish they would make a sequel.
And DLC
👍🏼
I agree! I originally started the game and did not complete the first mission and began playing another game. I then went back to play the game about a year or so later and was wondering why I never kept going in the first place! It was fantastic and I think it even got nominated for best narrative and may have one at the game awards that year
But the gameplay wasn't that fun
Why
Seriously the story in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is SO GOOD , and the characters are so well made, and love the dialogues !
really good soundtrack as well!
The banter between the guardians is SOOOOO good. I loved every second of it
Honestly Gameranx, you're my daily entertainment for quite some time now, with great, no, awesome videos and topics, Falcon and Jake you guys definitely need to know how incredible you guys are, and I thank you for that
Yeah, I've been watching every single video since April 2020 during the pandemic
And I don't regret it
Falcon is totally that cool uncle who'd play any game with you as a kid when no adults would; dude is such a homie
It's a very unique channel compared to their peers. They way they cover news is entertaining in a way where I dont even think you need to play video games to enjoy following the industry. Heck, when I started watching, I only played sports games. Thats still mostly true, but if there is an exception, it's probably because I tried something at their suggestion. Never any clickbait, and I cant really recall a time where I took their word on something and felt misled. I pray that never changes.
@@JustinObi54are you coming onto me?
Yeah, Dragon's Dogma. Took me like 10 hrs to figure out what this game was? It didn't come across as a real RPG, but once the game out, OMG what a joy to play. Good list Gameranx
This is almost the only channel that sings the praises of Mad Max. I loved that game. I'm glad you guys liked it too.
👍🏼
Because this is the only channel you watch
@@leonr1985 Not quite, but who else has talked about it?
@@eric7591you can probably find it on channels that make lists like this
I've never heard a bad word about the magic that is Mad Max.
Mad Max was such a surprise hit. Right outta left field. Had such fun with it. I really hope we get a sequel someday.
One of the deva said they had DLC ready to go begged the publisher to push the launch a month so it didn't launch on the same day as mgsv and still got shafted
I think the Rabbids game's success was the connection to the controller and the interface. You have the circle kind of match the thumbstick and it allows for more intuitive control.
and how cute they are :P
The sequel did not sell well though.
First of all, a huge thanks for your videos, it's always refreshing and handy to build our knowledge about games, but something bugs me out on this one : weren't the Rabbids created before the Minions ? I'm a french guy and I'm pretty sure I was watching Rabbids shorts on french tv, long before Despicable Me was out. But in any case, you make it cristal clear they're related in terms of creation and characterization, and so again, thanks !
DOOM 2016 is just something else... When you beat that laser trap and finally get the BFG.. That was so damn hype, I legit had tears in my eyes, doing it. I jumped out of my chair and screamed of joy. And then decimated the living daylight out of those pesky demons.
I was actually very optimistic about The Guardians before it came out so it was really great to see that the game was incredibly awesome! I loved every minute spent in it and couldn't stop playing it so I finished it in 2 days :P I *highly* recommend it!
I'd say the first Kingdom Hearts could fit this topic. No one expected a crossover of Disney and Final Fantasy to be such a smash success
One that sticks with me personally because it's one of my favorite series of all time is Kingdom Hearts 1. Sort of in the same spirit as Mario + Rabbids, I remember a lot of the initial reaction to the proposition of "Combining Final Fantasy and Disney characters in an ACTION RPG" was largely "....but...why?". But when it finally came out, man did it deliver. The quality of the series as it went on is debatable of course (although the series as a whole is still a personal favorite), but at the very least, KH1 and 2 were objectively amazing games, especially at the time of release.
While I agree Guardians of the Galaxy is an excellent game with a great story (even The Avengers has a great story buried underneath all of its crap), it’s painfully obvious the game started life as a live service. The gameplay appears to, at times, be a single player version of The Avengers gameplay. I think the game pivoted after The Avengers bombed.
Yeah they confirmed that it was originally a multiplayer only game originally but thank God it's not
Guardians of the Galaxy wasn't going to be a live service game but it was going to be a multi-player in it
They absolutely did
You should do ten game everyone hate but still play.
Thanks for bringing awesome content over the years Gameranx! 🙂
Same
Over the years really? you just came here last year. I've been here 9 years
@@leonr1985 I didn’t not just come here last year. What you on about? Been watching these guys for ages now (Haven’t been subscribed the entire time tho) and only just recently started commenting on stuff🫡
Doom 2106 story and setting was great. Alien Isolation had your heart beating. And Max Max definitely is a sleeper game. Great list Gameranx, hit the nail on the head.
It’s really unbelievable that Dead Island 2 finally released, and the game is genuinely great. It’s not a perfect game, or _Game of the Year_ content, but the fact the game went through almost a decade of development and avoided cancellation-then finally released in a solid game, is phenomenal. The game ran smoothly, the gore details were the best in gaming history, and the overall gameplay is fun. Just wish we had more enemy variety, longer story, and an actual final boss that wasn’t a reskin of a previous enemy.
But for the game to release running this smoothly, this polished, and actually fun, is something extraordinary when you take into consideration the development hell it went through.
Only thing good about it is graphics and gore. Story was garbage, characters were boring, even the zombie types were lame. Only reason it got as much hype as it did was because of graphics and combat. Dead island one was miles ahead of 2 for the time period it was released
@@jacobchitwood4365the entire point of these kind of zombie games is the combat. If you went into this game or other games like the first dead island or the dying light games expecting a top notch story and characters these games aren't for you😂
Your complaints about DI2 are easily applicable to Dead Island 1. DI2 IS a fun game...the combat is fun, the zombie types are fun. Could it use more? Yeah...I don't know what you want as far as protags go. They're typical Dead Island protags.
@@hiRollrr the combat sucked, especially compared to previous games
@@14ElmStreet28 You being bad at it is not the games fault.
Something that also helped with the success of Baldur's Gate 3 is their complete transparency into NOT adding Microtransactions or any other form to monetize the players in an era where every dang thing needs to be monetized, even the color of aim in some FPS games. I think, Diablo IV kind of helped with the RPG boom, and it was so bad that people tried BG3!
And the edition that came with the soundtrack, art book, and character sheets was only $10....which basically the price of a CD, which I think is so refreshing.
Edit: $10 more than the standard edition, I mean.
Mad Max was one game that was actually worth playing for the Platinum Trophy in PS...The story, the side missions and the best was fight physics. Truly underrated gem
I loved it but a bug in it made me fail getting 100% completion as my locations were stuck on 98% and I'd done everything to do in the game, this really annoyed me as I'm a completionist and I really wanted that platinum...
Other than this damn annoying thing, I really enjoyed the game, it's a very underrated, great PS4 game.
This whole video is a massive Falcon flex 💪 lol and I’m here for it. You deserve it
I know a lot of people didn't like dead island 2 but I loved it. Had such a fun time playing it.
Dead island 2 is gorgeous and has a lot of replayability, but it needs ng+
@@Axtrudithorizeyeah I enjoyed it and some ng+ would be good. Was pretty much what we all wished left for dead was back in the day.
To me dead island 2 looks too serious a big portion of why I enjoyed the 1st is it was kind of silly 2 looks like a much more serious approach which I personally am not too fond of in this style of game.
@@D3vilishGames well rest assured once you get in there and play you'll realize that it doesn't take itself seriously at all
@@D3vilishGames it's definitely silly hahaa
I would be shocked and incredibly happy if they decided to make Prototype 3 or the Mercenaries 3... loved those games and miss em...
Mad Max 2 would be an amazing surprise if they ever make it
This video is why I watch this channel religiously
I bought Sonic Frontiers hoping to God it was going to be good, and it was, but I had been burned so much that after a couple of hours of playing it I figured it was too good to be true and expected something to ruin it the more i played it. Then I saw the update map and thought to myself I'll give it another try when the updates come out. I was weak when they added the original music from past Sonic games. I still haven't finished the game, but the thing that keeps pulling me back is the fact that I still haven't found the OG Sonic Riders opening song, and I'm on a mission to find it
I think it's good, but it's honestly just dreadful in art style. The game doesn't look good. The gameplay really saved it and is giving the franchise new hope. All they really have to focus on now is the art and world settings.
@KuilowKey I actually loved the art style. It felt like a blend of the past and modern Sonic games with a slightly older voice acting to emphasize the passage of time
The craziest thing about the Mario + Rabbids game was that it wasn't even developed by Nintendo, it was only published by them. Ubisoft ended up having alot more passion for the Mario license than initially thought and you can tell they had fun making this game.
I played no man’s sky for like 500 hrs. That game is good and fun. Play it if you have any interest. I would get lost out in the deepest parts of the galaxy. I just wanted to see what was over the next hill, so to speak. I saw some truest awe inspiring things on my travels.
Currently playing through Guardians of the Galaxy. Outside a few bugs, it's been a fun experience that was definitely more than I was expecting after Avengers.
I believe the Rabbidz franchise predates the Minions by 4 years.
It’s crazy that film has been out for 13 years, I remember going to the cinema to watch it.
Man, after years of hearing how great Mad Max was, I found a sealed copy on eBay for like $10 and gave it a shot a few months ago. That game is freaking awesome! I loved Fury road when it came out and even though it isn't really a tie in (sorta prequel I guess) it fits really well together. I didn't even know the game existed until well after the fact. Such a fun time! The only bummer is that the servers are all shut off so there is no way to get the 100%/Platinum.
Pleasantly surprised to hear Dragon's Dogma get a mention. When I tried it on a whim, I immediately hit up all my gamer friends asking why no one had recommended it yet and why everyone was sleeping on it. Tons of fun.
yeah, game was great. I must of put at least a couple hundred hours into it when I got it on my ps3 back in the day. the fact you had to make yourself and your pawn giants or else you wont have a lot of carry weight was hilarious too. lmao
Same, my friends just said it's something like just another attack button masher, guessing they dropped it before any big enemy shows up, till I showed them I can climb the huge dragon and stab them in the eye
Yeah, I found on the online store for Xbox 360 while browsing the store for interesting demos to try, since just about every game let you download demos for them at the time. I played the demo, beat the Chimera, and absolutely KNEW I had to have this game. Got a used copy of the game from GameStop a few days later and have repurchased the game on every console it's come out on (that I have access to) ever since.
The best part about Falcon is his straight-forward reviews and comments. If a game sucks, he will tell you! Love you guys!
Sonic Frontiers I'm willing to go on record, and keep saying it for as long as possible (or until Frontiers 2 releases), that it's easily one of the best 3D Sonic games I've played! Up there with Unleashed & Generations.
Yes, the visuals could've been much better. But the feel of just running around at the speed of sound, and doing whatever you want in an open-area, is exactly what I wanted from a Sonic game!
The Super Sonic fights are incredible! The story is one of the best from a Sonic game! Especially now that we've got a more fleshed out ending with The Final Horizon DLC! Which adds Amy, Knuckles & Tails as playable characters for the 1st time since at least Sonic '06!
Arguably, this DLC comes with it's own set of issues (like cutscene audio going out, and some intense difficulty spikes regardless of difficulty settings, etc.), which can hopefully be patched before moving onto the next game.
Either way, I'm excited for the future of Open-Zone Sonic games! Such a great package here!
To be perfectly clear rabbids we’re around YEARS before despicable me. If anything minions are a kid friendly version
Baldur’s Gate 3 is my first foray into CRPGs. And because of it, I have even made the step into ARPGs another genre I previously ignored. So this game has definitely made an impact. It literally opened two genres to me that I had ignored for my 35 years on this earth.
Having played the original two I'm very heistent to actually play this one when it comes to Xbox my brothers are ready to play it tho and the thought of screwing with their game at every turn seems like too much fun to pass up
I remember when FF7 did that for me with jRPGs ages ago. I was so happy to have a new rabbit hole.
Enjoy your new foray! Just know that as great as some of those other titles are, nothing is even close to BG3. What they pulled off was absolutely groundbreaking as far as movement and setting usage.
But hey, dust off the OG BGs at some point. They’re dated, but still very enjoyable. Especially 2. If you dig em, I’d go with Icewind Dale after that.
Baldurs Gate - "It's a niche PC RPG".............. No it is not! It is right up there with Icewind Dale and Neverwinter Nights..... I would even say that Baldurs Gate 2 was probably one of the best "classic" RPGs ever made.
It's niche in that only the people who played those games might've played it, and that's not a lot of people. I only played them because my dad had them and I liked watching him play them when I was very little.
The whole genre was a little niche before BG3 came out.
Alien isolation is a gem. One of the all time greatest games.
Sad that it didn't get a sequel and now its developers, creative assembly have been "restructured" by sega
1:52 - the Hoots clone bug. You can see clone Hoots' shoulder bottom right. Theyve patched it out I think, but that would get you stuck in dialogue with them so you wouldnt be able to do anything else.
Is it just me or was Falcon drunk when recording this? 😅
It’s annoying how everyone says the Rabbids were a knockoff of the Minions when the Rabbids came first
Raving rabbits came before Minions.
i absolutely loved the gore mechanics of DI2 ....but still IDK why the original dying light is still my favourite zombie game....
Dragon's dogma is definitely under rated. Hope the new one i think i heard in development hits just as hard.
apparently you live under a rock
@@DeterminedFC Just don't keep up on games as much as i used to, Been burned by so many games past few years.
Dead Island 2 was so much fun, one of my favorite games this year!
where is cyberpunk 2077😥
I hope devs of such good games watch these kinds of videos and feel proud of their work.
The hardwork and creativity of the game devs is what that should be appreciated more.
Baldur's Gate 3 demonstrates that PC gaming has been in need of a game like this for quite some time. Underestimating this remarkable game only highlights the current direction of modern gaming, but in reality, gamers are yearning for something different, something akin to what this game offers.
Great game but it was so successful thanks to absolutely insane social media marketing…
Wouldnt be surprised if its a one time thing…
PC gaming has had games similar, just not of that scale and popularity. Steam is filled with story rich RPG's that stay away from micro-transactions, story pack updates, ect. If anything, it's doing more for console gaming imo
@@bingobongo1615I don't agree. I believe firmly there's a real gamers backlash brewing. It's the one medium where people are really connected. You're going to have a sea of casuals who play COD and only COD and mobile.
But that leaves a massive gap in the market. nd anyone who understands gaming is going to be eating just fine.
Guardians of the Galaxy was the best pleasant surprise I’ve ever gotten from a game
I knew No Mans Sky was going to be on this list. It’s come so far since launch. People really didn’t believe that it would amount to anything or even turn out to be that good. 7 years of free updates, bug fixes and improvements and not a single micro transaction ever. Hello games is the perfect example of what a game development company should be.
It's good that they get the game better, but it should be good from the go.
@@jumpbeatshootit was. It was just way over hyped so a bunch of people bought it with no idea what it actually was and then got mad.
Its funny to me that people talk about how much "better" NMS is now because at its core its the same game it was at launch. You just have more other things to do.
@@AD-df5tm that is true, but atleast HG learned from their mistakes and rectified the problem, that may be considered the bare minimum to a lot of gamers but atleast they didn’t take the money and run. Overall tho, it’s great that they’ve listened to feedback and improved the game
I applaud Hello Games for sticking to their guns but saying that they are "the perfect example of what a game development company should be" is wild. 7 years of free updates came after releasing a game that was a bare minimum sparse if I'm being generous. No Mans Sky was unfinished on release. Sure they used the sales money to improve the game, however I'm frankly tired of companies releasing unfinished games and then using the "promise" of improving the game as an excuse to avoid criticism and keep people's money. If Hello Games releasing a new game in the future and it actually is complete and what they marketed it as on release, then they can be considered a model for other companies.
As it stands now, they're still a cautionary tale.
@@AD-df5tmNo, it wasn't. If it was then they wouldn't have needed to fix it for 2 years. Don't forget THEY were the ones that overhyped it, not the fans.
I'm getting baldurs gate 3 on Tuesday. Let's gooooooo
Dead Island 2 was fun in its own right but I can't be the only one who is pretty is disappointed its not an open world like the first game
Dead Island 1 wasn't open world tho....
@@Axtrudithorize how was it not?
Yes you are the only one. I am grateful it's not a boring bloated open world
@@Playradise It Just doesn't work in a goofy arcade type game like dead island 2, It worked it a more linear narrative game like metro exodus though.
@@zynterlinked says you
Just FYI rabbids predates minions by quite a large margin. I was playing Rabbids games in middle school possibly a decade before minions
Yeah dead island 2 is damn good in my book. I didnt really experience any glitches or bugs messing the game up on PS5. Looked great too start to finish. The nailed it. The long wait was worth it. Nioh 1 & 2 was just addictive. Mad Max was hot. I still have it for xbox one. I just never finished it
Yeah I remember the eerie feeling when I hear those heavy footsteps from those big thugs coming for me. 😮
I becameba fan of Gameranx because of their coverage and praise of Mad Max. I heard enough about it, then picked it up a few years ago and loved it.
Nioh was one of the best games I ever played. I played ds 1,3, sekiro and Elden Ring. Haven't played BloodBorne cuz i didn't own ps4. And i don't think Nioh could top off the Souls games but wht makes Nioh really good is the variety of weapons that u get. The soundtrack was really good as well. Especially the final main story mission's background ost. And then Nioh 2 expands the variety even further. Nioh was a W imo.
Sounds like your just a FromSofware fanboy. A glutton for punishment
Go play Bloodborne. If you don't own a ps4, then go buy one and play Bloodborne.
@@PhaRoaH87 Nah i played rpgs like skyrim and witcher 2,3 and some others.
Played Zelda botw, all of pokemon titles including scarlet and violet.
Played city simulation games like simcity 4 and 2013, cities XL, XXL, cities skylines, Anno 1800, age of empires 1,3
1st person shooters wasn't my thing but i played cyberpunk, bioshock 1 and infinite.
Played Nier automata and replicant. Played all the assassin's creed titles.
Played cuphead but i haven't really played hollow knight after an hour into the game. I will one day tho.
Played all of Gow games. Played dmc 5. Gonna try out dmc 1 to 4 next month.
I am a fanboi of fromSoftware games but wht can i say they make really good games. I heard that ds2 was bad. I haven't played it tho.
@@jarse1991 Bruh...I might play bloodborne one day. Maybe at my friend's place who might own a ps4/pro. But nobody owns it sadly. And I ain't gonna buy a ps4 at this point of time lol
It's basically a looter soulslike. Maybe not as good as Fromsoft titles, but it's a great soulslike.
Play Nioh 2 if you haven't, as if pretty much improved everything.
Guardians of the Galaxy really is a good game. Got it for free, over xmas, on Epic Games Store. Couldn't believe how good it actually is.
Im so glad No Man’s Sky proved ppl wrong. Just a wonderful comeback 👏🏾
Guardians of the Galaxy was SOO good. HIGHLY underrated game💯
No mans sky didnt prove people wrong…
They are lying thiefs with some later remorse… still unacceptable how the lied and released the game.
Terrible example for the gaming industry- release broken messes you lie about if you later deliver
Great video, Loved Guardians I was pleasantly surprised, This is the type of superhero games we need.
What also boosted BG3's success is before its release is that all the games on that very time are either unoptimized, devs doing public apologies, microtransactions here and there, and the most important part - lack of a full-package release once bought - until BG3 went out and showed the world that there is still hope~
That and let's face it BG2 was one of THE most highly praised games EVER released on PC. It's right up there with Quake II, Age of Empires II and Diablo II as one of THE top 10 games of the Windows 95-XP era. (Funny how all the best ones were sequels. Guess the devs learned from the first ones?)
Love Gamerax, love these videos so good. I would LOVE that you list the title when you list the time indents? Cheers
I just picked up a copy of Guardians of the Galaxy for the PS5 a couple of weeks ago for $20 at Walmart. I'd heard how good (and underrated) the game is, so when I saw a copy in the bargain section of the Playstation games I decided to grab it. Haven't gotten around to trying it out yet, but I'm looking forward to eventually getting to it (got a huge backlog of games and so little time...)
I love how this video is basically a 20 minute victory lap for our guy Falcon! He. Does. Not. Miss!!
So great to see games proving publishers wrong. Shame it doesn't happen more often.
Wow! Had no idea Nioh was in development hell like that. Nioh 1 and 2 are both awesome
I bought Mad Max after I saw my old man playing it, seemed interesting, and I helped him with some of the combat too, I'd enjoyed the likes of Interstate 76 and 82, so the vehicle combat also appealed to me, bought it, finished it, enjoyed it, and have never regretted it.
Dead island 2 co-op is fun af!
Awesome Like every Videoupload of you. Keep going. Love❤
Not a PC RPG gamer, but damn I spent 200+ hours in baldur’s gate even tho up til this day I don’t really understand how DnD works LOL and still finding new things after new playthrough 🔥

The Guardians of the Galaxy game was pretty good.
I keep having to remind myself that Alien Isolation came out in 2014. I got it around 2017 when I believe it resurged in popularity. Put in the context of being so early in the last gen life cycle, it really is an impressive game.
I didn’t beat the game until last year. It was a game that I keep putting down over and over.
I bought the switch port because I kept hearing it was the best version. Finally gave it a try and I was hooked
Alien isolation is one of the best horror games ever. The atmosphere is perfect.
👍🏼
Great video / series if it continues. Some games deserve a 2nd chance.
cant believe Gameranx got Mike O' Hearn for a thumbnail
Mad max is one of my all time favorite games
I always thought I was the only one to actually like NMS when it first came out because,at the time, I was just so excited to have a space exploration game! I've always been a total space nerd since childhood so it was enough for me! 😆 Lol,imagine my face when I took a break and came back AFTER the updates! Felt like I reinstalled a whole new game!! 🤯 NMS will forever be one of my fav games of all time 👌🏾💯
Nah homeboy was wrong for that Bauldur's Gate "assessment." BG is a true classic, any actual gamer knows that
Wait... Weren't the Rabbits first than the minions?
You are so well spoken and I always know I can trust your takes. Side note: if you did audio books I would be never not listen, you have passion in your voice and it's so incredible to hear
I love how he did the “Canadian” voice from South Park when he was talking about Doom 😂 2:43
I have no idea why Baldurs Gate 3 is so popular.
Mostly good game but...
Great list. I feel better now.
Mad Max should have been a runaway success, because it's a freaking amazing game. It's so satisfying. The combat, the driving, the atmosphere - unparalleled and impactful, all.
Yesssss No1! More people need to play it!!!
Mad Max was awesome.
LOVED the Dead Island games.!!
Weren't the Rabbids released in 2006 whilest Minions came along in 2010?
The thing that helped with Doom (2016), at least for me, was the speed and their aggressive AI system. They designed it so if you stood still, the demons got more accurate so it pressed you to never stop moving and be aggressive.
