i audibly said F*** when crunchball came up. How could we forget this gem!? so much time spent on kongregate playing this thing. thanks for the nostalgia kofie!
was gonna say "this looks heavily inspired by speedball 1 and 2 from the early 90s", then saw "Inspired by the classic amiga game "Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe"" in the description on the website...
This was basically Speedball 2 but flash edition. And to have all of this in a flash game was remarkable. Imagine a developer bringing this back to for steam
I haven’t even started watching yet but smashed the HELL out of the like button cause i felt like i was going crazy with no one else I grew up with remembering this game, holy hell. MY PEOPLE
KOFIE, I LOVED THIS GAME. BUT ONE IMPORTANT DETAIL (i havent seen the whole video so if you address this my bad😅 just excited) THIS IDEA IS FROM AN OLD SEGA GAME CALLED POWERBALL. IT'S SO GOOD!!!!!!
Thank you! I was like "this reminds me of a Genesis game" but I couldn't remember the name. My brain kept getting stuck on Cyberball(a completely different but also good game)
This video brings me so much joy and nostalgia. I used to not have internet at my house, so Id load this game up from Kongregate on my school laptop before I left school, and Id be able to play it offline. I learned all the in and outs of the game and would play career mode until all my players were the absolute best. Still to this day is one of my favorite sports games ever.
Wow somehow I never knew of this game Have you ever played Deathrow on original Xbox? Similar style of game with arenas styled to the teams Konvicts (prison) Ninja (Dojo) Droids (outerspace) we could fight an injure or ko the team an win that way or outscore them We could charge the disc instead of shooting just set it free, if any opposing team player picked it up it would detonate! Reseting the disc in middle of map There were powerups an items on the maps as well Always hoped we’d get a sequel all these years later.. wonder if ubisoft owns rights Haha sorry rant over memories!
Kofie did you ever play NBA Jam On Fire Edition? 2011 XBLA/PSN port of the failed NBA Jam 2010 reboot on Wii. Probably the best $15 I've ever spent. Finally beat it on Platinum this past month.
Anyone got any advice for beating counter attack. My go-to, like Kofie is Goal Hang but it really doesn’t match up well. Typically I’ve just run counter myself although recently I have found fortress works well at least in lower levels.
Kofie, thank you for this and for reassuring me that Crunchball 3000 was not in fact a fever dream of my childhood
Wow, just seeing this for the first time, totally reminds me of Speedball.
OH MY GOD this was one of the games of my childhood i never thought I'd see anyone talk about it
"not the library" (definitely, absolutely, 100% undoubtedly the library)
"With such a heavy ball, it's important to use a lot of power!
First thing that came to mind when seeing that good ol' freekick challenge game
god imagine a next gen version of this. madden would be in shambles
i audibly said F*** when crunchball came up. How could we forget this gem!? so much time spent on kongregate playing this thing. thanks for the nostalgia kofie!
Bro I used to play this all the time in computer classes lol. I got attached to my players and paid attention to stats. Amazing game.
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO REFIND THIS GAME FOR YEARS THANK YOU SO MUCH KOFIE
was gonna say "this looks heavily inspired by speedball 1 and 2 from the early 90s", then saw "Inspired by the classic amiga game "Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe"" in the description on the website...
I was absolutely going to comment "Kofie, please play Speedball 2", but I guess we got there already via a less direct route.
I would love to hear your take on weekly prep in older sports games. like training camp in the old Maddens or the weekly prep in the Maddens and 2k5.
woah it’s like the Bill Laimbeer’s Combat Basketball of the future!
A classic. It's on Flashpoint.
This was basically Speedball 2 but flash edition. And to have all of this in a flash game was remarkable. Imagine a developer bringing this back to for steam
The second I saw the gameplay I immediately thought of Speedball 2, was shocked when he said flash game instead of Gameboy!
I haven’t even started watching yet but smashed the HELL out of the like button cause i felt like i was going crazy with no one else I grew up with remembering this game, holy hell. MY PEOPLE
DAWG THIS GAME STOLE HOURS OF HOMEWORK TIME FROM ME 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
1:40 Stan Van Gundy’s heart just skipped a beat
KOFIE, I LOVED THIS GAME. BUT ONE IMPORTANT DETAIL (i havent seen the whole video so if you address this my bad😅 just excited) THIS IDEA IS FROM AN OLD SEGA GAME CALLED POWERBALL. IT'S SO GOOD!!!!!!
According to the developer's website, it was inspired by "Speedball 2" for the Amiga
Thank you! I was like "this reminds me of a Genesis game" but I couldn't remember the name. My brain kept getting stuck on Cyberball(a completely different but also good game)
It’s based off of speedball isn’t it?
Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe by the Bitmap Brothers
Yeah I loved playing this as a kid. One of the workers at my old game store hosted his own speedball tournaments on a Thursday night and we loved it.
Man, just a split second on the Stan James game made me have flashbacks to the amount of sports flash games I played
This video brings me so much joy and nostalgia.
I used to not have internet at my house, so Id load this game up from Kongregate on my school laptop before I left school, and Id be able to play it offline. I learned all the in and outs of the game and would play career mode until all my players were the absolute best. Still to this day is one of my favorite sports games ever.
Kofi brought his future hat from the year 3000 it would seem.
crunchball 3000 is my all time favorite flash game it's great to see it being covered
Crunchball 3000 had me HOOKEDDDDDD
*homefield ad starts* hell yeah go bruins. Crunchball was my absolute favorite, but I hadn’t thought of it in ages before this video.
This game was so good man. We were really eating good in the Flash days, basically getting classic games with better controls and graphics.
I would 1000% play a reboot with modern graphics and a roguelike spin like that one hockey game on steam I don’t remember the name
Bro explained a simpler version of fifa manager carear mode. I always put my American team into the bottom of the English system and work my way up.
DUDE THIS GAME WAS INCREDIBLE BACK IN THE DAY.
thank you for unlocking one my most special memories of wasting time in computer lab. God bless u
that basketball reference shirt goes ridiculously hard
CRUNCH BALL 3000 IS SO GOOD!!!!!!!! I wish they would make a more modern version to release on Steam
Wait CrunchBall3000 is just Speedball but expanded
Sweet Magic hat bro!
So I just found out about you and what a relief to see someone out here making quality
The neopets demolition derby game lives rent free in my mind
Such a deep cut core memory unlocked man you’re so goated for this vid!!!
I LOVED THIS GAME SO MUCH MAN
you just brought back a repressed memory I loved this game!
I love crunch ball! I go back to play that game from time to time.
I was already enjoying your content, and talking about Crunchball 3000 knows I'm watching the right channels. Awesome stuff
I totally forgot about this game.
Thank you so much, I used to play it as a child
Kofi u rl crazy for this video, unlocked a childhood memory
Game is hard, I think it would be very popular today
It's a remake of Speedball by the Bitmap Brothers. Which was amazing, but it originally came out in the Commodore 64 era.
LOL THE NOSTALGIA!
Forgot the brand, but there some food company that had a fantastic home run derby game on their website. Extremely addictive
I was starting to think I made up crunchball 3000 since no one else seemed to remember it. Hell of a game!
I'm still not sure if this is a real game or if Kofie just made an 8 minute video about a theoretical concept.
The unexpected depth reminds me of the career modes of Blitz the League 1&2
Omg I played Crunchball 3000 so much during my childhood
I’ve been looking for the name of this game for legitimately 4 years
WHAT A BANGER GAME. Played it for days of time😭 What a pull
the basketball-reference shirt its so hard too
This unlocked a core memory. Hell yeah.
Bro I just found your channel while on a business trip to Cali, good shit my man. Makes my driving a crappy rental a little better
core fckin memory this game had me in a chokehold all thru elementary and middle I put my whole homeroom class on
So it's an updated browser based version of "Speedball 2" on 8 & 16 bit computers and consoles. Looks like fun.
Crunchball 3000 was such a goated game
true hood classic right here
I REMEMBER THIS GAME my god what a flashback
was their a similar version of this game on the cartoon network website?
Candy Scramble, an Adventure Time clone.
But which one did you guys play first (Or which game came first), this or Adventure Time's 'Candy Scramble'?
If EA wants me to buy a sports game they can make a multiplayer version of Crunchball 3000
This game was absolutely fantastic
Brooooo I loved crunchball 3000!!!!! It was so fun to do a speed and pass build and just tiki taka the defense
loving all the solo work from one of the best in the game! are you not with secret base anymore!? happy to follow your content anywher! loved this!
I still work with them! I also like having my own channel as well!
@ happy to hear it!
Oh holy crap I thought I imagined this game, so so cool to actually see it
Sports illustrated’s flash games for kids website had bangers as a kid
This is pretty much just speedball which released on the PS1
lol, I was looking at this game and I'm like "Well Flash games did matter, but...This is definitely just speedball"
The bballref shirt 😍
If Kofie finds football manager I'm afraid he'll never recover.😢
losing my mind at kofie making a nakey jakey reference to open a video rn
Crunchball is a classic but real sports flash games heads know the GOAT is BotBall 😤
Wow somehow I never knew of this game
Have you ever played Deathrow on original Xbox?
Similar style of game with arenas styled to the teams Konvicts (prison) Ninja (Dojo) Droids (outerspace) we could fight an injure or ko the team an win that way or outscore them
We could charge the disc instead of shooting just set it free, if any opposing team player picked it up it would detonate! Reseting the disc in middle of map
There were powerups an items on the maps as well
Always hoped we’d get a sequel all these years later.. wonder if ubisoft owns rights
Haha sorry rant over memories!
Damn I can't believe I missed this growing up. Looks fun as hell. Gonna try it now
Not much has changed, but we live underwater
Crunchball was elite
Kofie did you ever play NBA Jam On Fire Edition? 2011 XBLA/PSN port of the failed NBA Jam 2010 reboot on Wii. Probably the best $15 I've ever spent. Finally beat it on Platinum this past month.
And here I thought the only sports video game from the future was Cyberball 2072.
Baseball Simulator 3000
Base Wars
Deathrow
0:36 I could be wrong, but I always thought crunchball was an illegal underground sport
Lava boy and water girl 1. My 8th grade computer class.
One of the flash games of all time
50k soon cant wait
FGC coverage WHEN ?!
they made a game about the guy from Outkast thats crazy
Use to put in real hours on this game you had me thinking they were coming back for a second
I played this in school so much
Anyone got any advice for beating counter attack. My go-to, like Kofie is Goal Hang but it really doesn’t match up well. Typically I’ve just run counter myself although recently I have found fortress works well at least in lower levels.
I loved Crunchball3000 as a kid!
It's a clone of Speedball on Amiga/DOS, etc.
Levi Tatum is the MVP
That basketball reference shirt is so fucking dope
Deluxe brutal!!
You should do a review of the evolution of dodgeball games.
oh my god i totally forgot about this game but i played it sooo much
What's the name of the soccer game at the start of the video?
I LOVED this game
Brutal Deluxe
Did you leave Secret Base?
Damn. I wanna play this now
Was I asleep when you mentioned how we could play this game at some point in the video? I didn't see it in the comments
NakeyJakey mentioned!!
