. Sign up to receive a list like this every Thursday and beware of some minor spoilers in the following games Mike, sorry for the hair comment, what was he called for, that's what I was trying to do. a little bit Yeah, a little bit funny, then yeah, absolutely, oh roast, thank you.

Sonic the Hedgehog's nemesis, Dr. Robotnik, goes to great lengths to try and kill his prickly rival, including but not limited to chained Big Balls, giant drills, and robot clones that can turn into Buzzsores (really all he had to do). What to do was wait until Autumn built a bonfire and then let Sonic fall asleep among all that cozy wood and firewood and then drop the first fantastically robot-designed Sonic killing machines you find on the 1993 Sonic CD. a huge robot spike-covered biped with hedgehog-repellent bumpers instead of arms that rejoices in the high-tech-sounding egg name hvc001 It's certainly no coincidence that hvc-001, in addition to being the name of this robot, was also the name from the serial number of the famicom console made by Sega's rival Nintendo, look at the famicom hvc-001, also known as the Nintendo Entertainment System or NES, maybe that Easter egg doesn't sound like a burn, you might be thinking that the robot is rough and then you lightly brush the egg. hvc001 and everything is falling apart faster than a wish.com Tower Jenga haha, big blow in the console wars, how will Nintendo come back from this?

Oh right, winning easily and still making beloved consoles to this day. I remember it now as you could. I have guessed from the title, top down shooter enter dungeon is a game with many weapons, unless the title is a typo, it is supposed to be a dungeon and the number of weapons is just a coincidence, but there are plenty of weapons in the game for you to blow things up including a beehive, a pea shooter that shoots literal peas, and a shotgun shell that shoots shotguns. One of these many weapons is deadly in its own right, but it serves the dual purpose of also being a savage indictment of modern gaming. monetization practices, namely the microtransaction gun that costs a hefty 100 of the game's rarest currency Hegemony Credits.

The microtransaction gun looks like a big gold cash register. Shoot collectible statues and plushies. Art books. Cash and gems and use a shell, the game's other main currency, every time. You shoot it abroad if that wasn't enough, the description of the gun makes it clear what the agreement says. Everyone involved in the production of this weapon thought it was a bad idea, but superiors forced them to build it anyway, then management shut down. down that weapons factory for making a weapon no one liked to finish off with a specific dig when you get the gems that the shots are green and look very similar to the gems from EA's then recent Dungeon Keeper game that was so riddled with microtransactions trying than you buying green gems that were basically unplayable, as a side note, the micro transaction gun is free if you buy the Enter the Gungeons DLC.

I can't say if that's satire or not, but either way I think it doesn't exactly work. I remembered, only a franchise as esteemed as The Witcher could take a swipe at the concept of DLC from within some DLC and still come out smelling like roses much like Geralt after a trip to the bathhouse mmm fragrant in The With Witcher 3's Blood and Wine expansion, developers CD Projekt Red do exactly that, attacking the industry's practice of downloadable content in the course of their Witcher duties. Geralt ends up on the trail of a serial killer vampire who has left a fresh corpse.

Damian. from the tours The guards are already there securing the area securing the area better go there now before the trampoline track man handles any evidence investigating the scene of the recent murder Geralt discovers a fancy handkerchief that belonged to the unidentified victim floating in the river so what monogrammed DLC, the Noble's accessory clearly, this little DLC item must belong to a noble. Geralt the Juices because he is very expensive. You could say that if you are making a comment on the DLC, this DLC noble turns out to be a former Knight named Dulaqua One. something found a water monogrammed handkerchief DLC means anything to you, it can't be, wasn't he the one who killed to the Beast?

Then it turns out that serial killer Beast of Tucson has been murdering people for breaking the knight's moral code, as if Seven's killer had been in These Knightly Virtues and was also a vampire. Mr. DLC was murdered for failing to maintain the chivalric virtue of generosity. Being greedy, you could say if you were making a comment about the DLC and in the spirit of committing a murder with an ironic theme, the murderer stuffed a bag of money down Mr DLC's throat before cutting him into pieces and throwing him into the river, something strange with coins, and that's how The Witcher 3 pulled off its biggest trick of all time, which was putting a clever twist on an undersized and overrated DLC in rival video games from within the main questline of its own DLC which, on the contrary, was a deep 20-hour expansion and therefore a totally different thing, speaking of The Witcher, it turns out that not everyone is a fan or at least not a fan of Geralt's type of thing. he gets up in his free hours which we remind you involves doing so on the back of a stuffed unicorn again lets go the main one I know you I let you go you throw us among those numbers we can include the horse trader mahoyed in 2018 peasant Em Up Kingdom Come Deliverance, who has a horse for sale that shares a name with Geralt's trusty Steed Roach, inquire about purchasing this horse and you will receive a short summary of its origins from The Horse Trader containing some slides from The Witcher series.

Polish developer CD Project Red and also what has to be the most famous and hopefully the only example of stuffed horse romance in the history of video games. He's a pretty good horse, no, he has a mind of his own. I bought it from some strange saint, he said now. settled down with one who's afraid she wanted him to introduce all those perverts who said that almost all the horses in Kingdom Come Deliverance are Easter

eggs

in one way or another and that at least Roach is better than Epona, a horse described as only responding to wind instruments, who is also the most cowardly horse in the game, who will run away at the first sign of trouble, she is a good horse, no doubt, but she won't listen to anything but a flute or a flute, he's probably worried about someone catching him. and doing it face up seems like there's a lot of that out there, well it's not a very attractive Damsel in Distress, but it is a rescue mission to rescue the ape hoes.

This may surprise you, but the Metal Gear Solid games don't. They always take 100 seriously, that was probably the moment when BAFTA knew they had to give the scholarship to Hideo Kojima, perhaps the clearest example of this is the snake vs monkey minigame that appeared in the PS2 version of Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater and who saw genetically engineered super soldier naked snake running around trying to catch the ape monkeys Escape gotcha so he can unlock a monkey mask and banana camouflage escort you back to the other side of the Iron Curtain yet It makes more sense than dying stranded anyway if you've never seen it.

I encourage you to watch the introduction to snake vs. monkey mode, not only because it involves a snake and Campbell yelling about apes, it includes the phrase monkey catching action, isn't it just a monkey catching action and it has a snake inexplicably saying he? I prefer to collect pants. I'm not against monkey-catching, but rather pants-collecting, but it also includes a sly dig at the main Pretenders to Snake's Throne as king of stealth games. Splinter Cell's Sam Fisher and Siphon Filter's Gabe Logan as the The intro is mostly a snake complaining about having to do the mission in the first place, saying that someone with his skills isn't needed for such a basic stealth mission and asking why someone more basic and available couldn't do the job instead of names. suggests Sam and Gabe, why don't they have Sam or Gabe do the work?

Snake, take it as a compliment. Snake. Nobody does actions to catch monkeys like you. I'm willing to take responsibility for the last 24 hours, but you have to understand our interest in his life and everything has clearly gotten out of control now I'm not going to sit here and belittle the toughness of the Dragonborn from Elder Scrolls V Skyrim, after all, This is a person who can shoot fire with his hands. dragons and, most impressive of all, eating an entire wheel of cheese in one bite. Yes, there are few video game protagonists deadlier than Dragonborn, but if you had to pick one, I think the first thing that would come to mind would be Doom's Doom.

Slayer popping Demon heads As if to make this comparison official, the developers of the 2016 Doom reboot included a secret Easter egg for you to discover that consists of a long-dead skeleton wearing a particularly identifiable helmet, that's right, is Skyrim's Dragonborn who seem to have taken a lot more than just an arrow to the knee, although they've also brought a narrator to Knee Doom and Skyrim share a publisher, Bethesda, so this is probably more of a fun shout out That's a total roast, but the fact is that the Doomslayer is doing well in an environment that seems to have been suitable for Dragonborn, come on guys, no need to fight, at least none of you are in Fallout 76 Leon, we have a blackout in the main room, where is the doctor?

Damn. Out there immediately Aiden Caldwell, the main character of Dying Light 2, is a capable zombie survivor, but how does he compare to other iconic zombie video game characters? If the mission broadcast is to be believed quite well, that's actually because during this mission. in which Aiden has to scale a skyscraper full of zombies, he runs into not one but two characters who are sarcastic Easter eggs meant to roast the great-grandfather of the Resident Evil zombie games. First, during the mission, you encounter an injured peacekeeper who may look like I'm familiar with his Raccoon City Police Department uniform and 90s Boy Band curtains almost up, that's what my dog ​​tag says. , oh yes, his name is also Leon.

He asks you to go find his comrade Chris, who it must be said is doing even worse. Chris kills zombie Chris and you can grab his dog tags to confirm that yes, this was Chris Redfield, who apparently got a lot worse fighting zombies between Resident Evil Village and Dying Light too, and Leon presumably also disappears because he's so much worse. . in fighting zombies than Aiden to be fair I don't think Leon or Chris have ever had electrified arms so it's not really a fair comparison thanks for watching this video brought from outside of Xbox Mike already ran away for fear of being burn his haircut more I want to fix it himself with scissors, so if anything is worse, but it doesn't matter, let me interest you in more non-Xbox videos like this one about the worst consoles ever released that were hilarious disasters straight out of the kitchen of Xbox outside video from last week and then there's this video from our sister channel outside extra and it's about the games you can fail before you even start, go figure, so pick one and then we'll see you here next Thursday to see another video. very similar to this
