Plate Up! | The Best Overcooked Game That Isn't Overcooked!?
This is a review of PlateUp! developed by It's Happening, released in 2022 on PC and coming in October 2023 for PS5 and Nintendo Switch.
It's a very similar sort of game to Overcooked, being a co-op focused party game set in a kitchen, however it's got some tricks up it's sleeve to make it distinct from the game it's inspired by, particularly in the way that it's structured as a rogue-like.
But can it dethrone Overcooked as the king of co-op games? Let's take a look and find out!

How I Got Started With The Pokémon Trading Card Game In 2023!
Переглядів 2229 місяців тому
Over the past few months, I've unexpectedly been getting back into the Pokémon Trading Card Game which is something I didn't really plan on doing! After seeing some of the upcoming card sets were going to be based on generation one Pokémon though, I figured that now would be a good time to start and it turns out that there's a reason people are really into it! So join me as I talk about my expe...

How to Fix Bad Video Quality on Your Dreamcast | Kaico Dreamcast HDMI Adapter Review
Переглядів 4,8 тис.Рік тому
This is an unboxing and review of the Kaico Dreamcast HDMI Adapter. After recently purchasing my first ever Dreamcast console, I quickly discovered that the standard composite video cables don't do the system any justice due to the graphics being distorted and blurry. This is where Kaico and their Dreamcast HDMI Adapter come in, supposedly offering far superior visuals than what's offered by co...

    My Best games on Dreamcast... "SILVER" .."RAYMAN2" .."GRANDIA2" .."SOULREAVER" .."GTA2" .."LODOSS WAR" and "CODE VERONICA".. All look Stunning with a VGA Hdmi cable except Code Veronica which you will need a Dreamcast Scart RGB cable TV input. Sorry but to really play Dreamcast games looking their best you will need to invest in an old PLASMA TV with "SCART" "VGA" "COMPONENT" and "HDMI" input connections. They are really easy to find and very cheap to buy... Just make sure they have all of the game cable connections I have mentioned... Best Wishes and Happy Retro Gaming.

    The racism of the game is intentional. Old Danish white men, casual racist humor was the norm in Denmark.

    • @wile123456
      @wile123456 14 годин тому

      And yes, the stereotype accents are in Danish too. It's such a dumb choice, because the Danes making the game laughs at their juvenile joke, then sales plummet when the game is translated into German and other languages they make fun off, and the jokes fall flat, or the racism has to be oriented somewhere else

    I played Jet Set Radio and Sega Rally and worked fine. But when I want to play Tokyo Extrem Racer, the dreamcast tells be to switch cable, because it doesn´t run with that cable. Any workaround to start it with this HDMI cable?

    • @PixelPursuit
      @PixelPursuit 5 днів тому

      Unfortunately any game that doesn't support VGA video output won't work with this Kaico adapter. I've ran into the same issue with Resident Evil: Code Veronica and there doesn't seem to be any way around it. The only thing you can do is swap to either composite cables or a scart cable which isn't ideal.

      I personally want to see a Berserk game where you don't play as Guts or any of the characters from the manga but it tells its own story that's potentially set in one of the neighbouring regions to Midland that we've not seen much of. I think Santa Monica Studio could also do a really good job with adapting Berserk too!

    Oddworld's bad endings are a punishment towards the player if they fucked up during their playthroughs. Either it be failing to save all Mudokons, use a dark power constantly so it corrupts the amulet's spirit, or having less than 50% Quarma. So moral of the story is: Don't ignore a bit of small-fries on the lower levels. Rescue all of them so Abe would be claimed as a hero, and they'd make it out alive, and everything will return to the way it is before their enslavement. I'm not a masochist for bad endings, but Oddworld, Persona 3, 4, & 5, Sonic 2(Game Gear), and Banjo-Kazooie's bad endings are just so dark and distressing that they encourage the player to try again, whereas the latter was intentional if they save and quit the game or lose all lives.

    • @PixelPursuit
      @PixelPursuit Місяць тому

      I don't know, I think even at the time it was reasonably mediocre due to some of the more tedious elements. It did have some really cool ideas though and I have a lot of nostalgia for it. The beginning of the game in particular with the first level where you bounce bullets around to solve puzzles and then chase the train before making your way to the front is amazing. It just never quite reaches that height again after that 😅

    The zoom out to the fire extinguisher during the Soulstorm ending is legitimately one of the funniest pieces of visual comedy I've ever seen because i legitimately can't tell if they did it as a taunting visual gag or as a legitimate "a bridge too far" moment. Like, even if he got to the fire extinguisher, then what? There's no putting out a fire that large. Not to mention all three of them were actively on fire, even if they survived the fire completely unharmed, they can't reach the controls and are literally moments away from crashing into the factory and exploding.

    A major point about these reviews should be that these games were intended for children, not fully grown adults with over a decade of gaming experience.

    • @PixelPursuit
      @PixelPursuit Місяць тому

      While that's absolutely true, I still think that games primarily aimed at children can be fun for anyone. I mean Mario games are aimed primarily at kids and everybody loves them. Plus, games aimed at children still need to have a degree of quality, even when I was a kid I could tell the difference between a good game and a bad game, so I still think reviewing stuff like this is somewhat interesting.

    • @PixelPursuit

      Night of 100 Frights is definitely the more popular game, it was the only one of this weird trilogy of games that I had previously briefly played back in the day. I think Night of 100 Frights is way closer to the actual TV show which makes it far more charming, but for me Unmasked is the overall best even if it doesn't feel as much like Scooby Doo.
