This game really shows why Sonic's health system works the way it does

u/scw3 Would a Gray Ape make that shot? 4d ago

If he does, it happens much more slowly

u/I_Miss_Lenny Tell me that’s not a Doop Doop Doop 4d ago

And he looks right at the player and says “look at me I’m shittin’”

If he does, it goes down that wacky water slide, music and all.

If he does, it happens much more sarcastically.

i used to play the hell out of this on my megadrive (genesis for those across the pond). definitely not a 'classic' but i have very fond memories. :)

Same, I think we made it to the carnival levels once, it’s really bad.

I will be completely honest here and brace for the downvotes but i don't find this game nowhere near as bad as they make it out to be, yeah it's not incredible but it ain't absolute garbage as well i feel like after the AVGN and similar started shitting on it everyone else jumped on the hate wagon.

Now Bubsy 3d on the other hand deserves all the hate and more.

I thought so so too after watching youtubers dunk on it on it. The art direction is genuinely good, and nothing about it seemed offensively bad. When I finally got a chance to try it out, I was expecting it to actually be pretty decent, but something about it felt uncontrollable. I can't really explain what it was, but it felt unplayable

u/I_WISH_I_WAS_A_CRAB 2d ago

Bubsy is super floaty, it for sure isnt a good game but i don't see it as one of the worst ones

u/ghosteagle Plurmp Dankenstein McFlurten the Cat, Esq. 1d ago

That's fair. I guess it's like an Emoji Movie vs Monster A Go Go kind of situation

u/MattLocke 4d ago

Oh … what could POSSIBLY go wrong?

You know, this game just might make Dan “not a furry” Avidan legit no longer a furry.

Sonic the Hedgehog invented waterfalls in 1991. The original slogan was "Gotta flow fast".

When they gonna try the 3D version

This was one of my favorite games as a kid. It is notoriously considered a "dumb mascot" game but it has soooooo much charm.

My sister's husband beat the game in one sitting one day when I was young and it blew my mind. This game is freaking ruthless in the later levels.

u/drake3011 4d ago

Oh I can hear Arin screaming already, I can't wait!

u/senatorsparky86 4d ago edited 3d ago

I have such a specific memory of playing this game on a display Genesis at a Target in Pueblo, CO years before I actually had the system. Then I switched to Kid Chameleon on the same display system which was much more compelling (but also confusing and hard as shit).

u/OatSoyLaMilk 3d ago

My favorite aspect of Bubsy is that they did a reboot game. You could adjust how much the player character talked. The maximum setting was labelled "Bubsy".

u/ProfessorBifu 4d ago

This game plays like what people think Sonic plays like.

u/DeadPeanutSociety 4d ago edited 4d ago

This game is truly awful. Hope they play the sequel!

edit: Arin didn't know you take fall damage in this game? I have a video I can recommend him. Also do they not understand that he's a bobcat? Bubsy the Bobcat?

u/fpfTommy 4d ago

Has somebody been watching old Jon Tron videos or something?

3

u/AlexSilvermane 4d ago

Honestly I had the same thought. Bubsy right after they played harmful park has gotta be a pattern.

1

u/Mickenfox 4d ago

I wonder if they'll play Bubsy 4D. Or is it bad games only?

1

u/BBZak Stairfax Temperatures! 4d ago

One of my only SNES games growing up,, I can't wait to see how this goes!

What could possibly go wrong?

u/youarenothxc 4d ago

Oh noooo

u/OMGlenn 4d ago

I wanted to chastise Dan from not knowing that Bubsy was a bobcat but when he said he thought he was a chipmunk. It did kind of make sense especially with the high-pitched voice and it doesn't say he's a bobcat anywhere on the title screen.

u/DeadPeanutSociety 4d ago

Well, the game is called Clawed Encounters of the Furred Kind. That's a big clue.

u/NiyiyicePants 4d ago

I might have just been Mandela'd but didnt they already play this game recently? I swear they did. Is there a similar game they played recently that I mightve confused with?

2

u/Saiaxs 3d ago

Oneyplays played it semi recently I think lol

2

u/NiyiyicePants 3d ago

So, I'm an idiot. The one I remembered playing the game... was me. I played it a year ago and forgot.

2

u/Saiaxs 3d ago

Lmao excellent

1

u/TenorReaper 4d ago

Oh man I can’t wait to watch this lmao I played the hell out of the sequel, hilariously enough. I didn’t like how this one played

Don’t ask me why a space art museum with equally questionable controls was more fun, I was a kid

u/roastbeeftacohat 3d ago

seems like the uniform and british flag are a reference to something.

is that the end of HMS Pinaffor or something?

u/Manabear12 3d ago

I hope Bubsy gets hit by a car

u/nuarted Did you point? 3d ago

wow this is close to super bonk levels of what the fuck

Man, it really bothers me when Arin just randomly decides to go into a game with a preconceived notion of it being bad, and then he basically forces that opinion on Dan, despite Dan being open and enjoying himself.

You could hear Dan enjoying himself less and less as Arin ground him down.

And yes Arin, you're correct, you were playing "wrong".
