Game Sack

[Lastcallhall]

Awesome video Joe, I learned quite a bit about a system I knew very little about. I remember back in the day, my friend bought one, and told me "Yeah it's only 8-bit and you have to buy an add-on to make it 16 bit, I'm taking it back to the store and getting a Sega CD for my Genesis" So now you have just put Turbo-Duo at the top of my want list! Thanks!

With TurboDuo prices the way they are, you're gonna have to sell a lot of labels to get one... I've wanted one the better part of last year and this year, and I can't seem to find one that goes under the 150.00 mark (and those ones have a broken hucard cover). Good luck!

What about the japanese versions they talk about on the video?

[Lastcallhall]

The Japanese systems are the ones I usually find; they're about the same price. I have a guy here on CL selling his US system for 300.00, and he's firm on the price (believe me, I tried).

Behold, the TurboGrafx-16... the system you should love:

Nice inclusion of the 2600 with the 8-bit consoles there. (especially for the point being made about generational issues and bitness)

This time we take a quick look at Star Odyssey and have another random battle. Which two games are pitted against each other this time?

[Kamahl]

Hahahaha, man I love the random battles, this one was even better.
Excellent episode.

I've been watching Game Sack for a little while Joe, but I didn't immediately recognize you until I made the connection with your Sega video. Really like what you have produced so far, it seems to me like a much more competent version on Classic Game Room (competent meaning you actually go over things in detail, rather than a brief, often opinioneless glance.) You do some neat things with editing in order to spice the videos up rather than simply letting them be straight up, simplistic reviews, and they really give Game Sack a unique style compared to other YouTube efforts and the like. In short, lots of fun to be had, and Game Sack has quickly risen to be one of my favorite game related shows out there, surpassing the bizarrely focus-challenged newer rendition of CGR, and giving me a reason again to watch something other than poorly done Let's Plays.

I guess I should have also mentioned I find the subtly written humor really well done and does not hit you over the head constantly like some other review shows.

Hahaahaha, this was awesome
R-Type I like more than Axelay, aliens are always better than machiniery

[zetastrike]

Great video. I would have loved to see Axelay vs Thunder Force IV. I was expecting her to pull that out instead of R-Type. That would have been awesome.

[Joe Redifer]

That would have been awesome indeed!

How about alien cyborgs/biomechanical weapons/ships?

Saw this episode this morning. This is becoming one of my favorite shows to watch on TY. Thanks for the hard work!

[QuickSciFi]

Grand Papa! Lmao

That goes to show how Sega didn't miss out on Final Fight. I didn't know they downported it so heavily on the SNES. And, man, does Streets of Rage (1 & 2) have awesome music.

Great episode as always, Joe! There's only one tiny little exception that I took with it, and that is the claim that SoR 2's soundtrack is better than that of the first game. I love them both, and they are among my favorite soundtracks period, but I think that the first one slightly edges out the second in that category. And considering that for this episodes soundtrack you used 3 tracks from the first game and only one from the second, I think you secretly agree with me!

Anyway, keep up the great work!
