My Top 5 Most Wanted Games to Come Back through GOG

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, here's an idea I been considering for awhile now. Earlier this year GOG changed their Wishlist system. Into a direction I really preferred a lot more. A lot of people including me left comments on many games. We all wish could eventually return through GOG in some form.

I figured the best course of action would be me discussing games with my five highest upvoted comments. They don't allow you to vote on your own comments. I won't give numbers because these games with some beneath em often gets more votes. Let's be honest, if I take too long writing this.

I may have to swap one of the originally planned games out. I will confirm this the top two most upvoted comments are notably higher than the rest. Now that speaks volumes how much people loved those comments. I have officially played all five games I'll be discussing shortly here.

Eventually I would like to do the flip side. Top 5 Games I put on their Wishlist with the most votes soon. Right now I'm waiting for a bigger gap between the sixth and fifth most voted game. Otherwise, it's a different kind of surprise. I don't think it'll caught your attention like this though.

5. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots

Back when I had an PlayStation 3. I gotten to play Metal Gear Solid 4. Later on, I let an friend play a lot of the game. Easily, one of my absolute favorite Metal Gear games. There's a rumor they might include the game in an upcoming Metal Gear compilation game.

At this moment it's stuck being an PS3 exclusive game. Which really sucks considering how damn great that game was. It was a near flawless Metal Gear game. The perfect conclusion to everything Solid Snake went through. Of course, I really want this Metal Gear game to come back soon.

4. Scarface: The World Is Yours

This might come as a huge surprise to some people. I did play some games similar to Grand Theft Auto series outside Saints Row series. One of my favorites among those was Scarface: The World Is Yours. It's essentially an what if sequel to the classic movie.

Al Pacino didn't reprise the role. He did help selected whoever gets to play the character. I felt this had a good balance of realism with some aspects not so much. There was a surprisingly great story. Even with it's flaws, it was quite a decent licensed game.

3. Saints Row (original)

I know a game I often talked a lot about. The short version is you could only play this on Xbox consoles. Most of the series reached PC bags the question. Is it possible for the original Saints Row game to get an official PC port or not? Volition already shut down making things more questionable.

This was a great game that improved in many ways from GTA series. A great story you could swap between rival gang's story lines. Some great rewards you could unlock. A good level of challenge at times. A good soundtrack for an early Xbox 360 game that held up amazingly well.

Three great games but only two had more upvoted comments by huge amounts. By now you may have a few ideas. Which two games I could be discussing? Both of these following games really meant so much to me. I would drop everything to buy em as soon as they become available on GOG I'm dead serious!!! Both of them are that damn great.

2. The Simpsons: Hit & Run

Earlier this year, I reviewed The Simpsons: Hit & Run. A truly fantastic licensed GTA clone that holds up incredibly well. This really felt just like the show in nearly every aspect. There's some rather cool mods as well. Right now there's an Futurama mod. A full recreation of Futurama show in the style of that Simpsons game.

This really had a lot of fan service for it's time. So many great references to the show. They recreated GTA but also made it their own. Some great jokes with rememberable voice overs. There's plenty of surprises to keep playing this game. People want this a ridiculous amount more than The Simpsons Game there.

1. Silent Hill 3

I confess Silent Hill 3 is among my favorite Silent Hill games. I always deeply respected this SH game. You get plenty of great unlockables. The story works well enough to keep you caring. Some great puzzles you won't forget. I like some of the bosses as well. I always liked the art design to a degree. The characters are all rememberable.

They somehow even further with the concept. There's some cool tricks not a lot of people knows. I always get a bit creep out by the enemies. The soundtrack is absolutely amazing!!! Not only that, this was among the scariest PS2 games I ever played!!! SH3 surprisingly had a decent PC port. Which was mind blowing due to how Konami regularly went about porting em to PC not great in comparison.

Four of the five games I deeply miss playing. I currently got the original Saints Row on Xbox Series X. I still felt the PC fans would enjoy it. Yeah three of these games are similar to GTA series. Yet all of them stands out enough on their own. Silent Hill 3 is a truly amazing horror game. Metal Gear Solid 4 is possibly one of the greatest video games ever made!!!

Darkenstein 3D (2025) review

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, today a particular free FPS game came out. I saw a few trailers with the launch trailer earlier today. I was curious to see if the game worth playing or not. It's one of those homage FPS games with a more humorous side. Darkenstein 3D was quite a surprise!!!

Darkenstein 3D (2025)

Darksenstein 3D about a hobo trying to get his dog from the Nazis I'm not kidding. I played an handful of FPS games with a similar plot. Mostly Postal 2 that's pretty offensive compared to this game. You get a good variety of weapons. He's a hobo with a shotgun!!!

Look I had to do the joke. There's a movie called Hobo with a Shotgun surprisingly decent as well. This is heavily inspired by Wolfenstein series. It actually felt like an actual Wolfenstein game. You get a few decisions that impacts some stuff in the levels. You got to collect two keys often.

This also references Duke Nukem mostly in lines. The last few levels being Serious Sam inspired. You even get to explore a similar huge location that's well hidden. It kinda reminded me the last level of Serious Sam: The First Encounter. There's some funny jokes in the game.

I absolutely loved the gore to a degree. You could get lost in the levels. There's plenty of ammo with so many enemies. Not Serious Sam amount of them though. Your dog suddenly falls into a portal reminded me of Postal 2: Paradise Lost. When the Postal Dude's ex wife grabbed your dog Champ before going further into hell.

Now I don't know if that inspired it or not. I didn't expect much from an free FPS game. I was quite surprised it ended up being very decent. Well designed levels that truly felt like real Wolfenstein levels. You can collect similar stuff to Wolfenstein 3D. There's a few bosses that all required you to do something.

Before you can damage them thankfully it's not exclusively using explosive weapons. Yes I am looking at you Duke Nukem Forever!!! I felt Return to Castle Wolfenstein was this game's biggest inspiration. I couldn't stop comparing this to that as I was playing the game.

I love this guy you play as he's called Hobo Guy in the ending credits. Some of the things he says I almost don't know what to say lol. The soundtrack was a little better than I expected as well. My biggest issue I hope they fix it soon. I kept getting this movement glitch that limited your movements to a degree.

Otherwise I didn't have anything more serious. In fact, Darkenstein 3D played incredibly well on my computer. I also notice some secrets were inspired by the original Quake. The famous after you activate an switch. There's another one you gotta find then activate to unlock a secret area.

I felt the most annoying enemies are scientists with an experimental weapon. Also snipers when you can't hit em with a long range weapon. I kept comparing this to UnMetal for a few reasons. You also could get a rat to throw at enemies. They actually shown this in every trailer.

This sorta felt like a weird mix of FPS classics that somehow came together. None of the levels are alike a huge positive I have. There's thirteen levels I started wishing it had more. There's no boring moment in this game whatsoever. I guess I'll reveal the main antagonist you probably already figured it out by now.

The final boss so happens to be Hitler in a mech. Obviously a reference to his Wolfenstein 3D boss fight. One of my favorite mess up moments is Hobo Guy kicked Hitler's head off sent it flying a good distance. The game has a little more following the final boss fight.

Like Wolfenstein 3D, you get a few lifes. You could find some extra lifes as well. Check points has a particular icon you can go through to activate them. Thankfully if you die, enemies you killed stay dead. You can't save often to get around things either.

The campaign itself is a few hours long. I personally had a great time from start to finish. In most aspects, Darkenstein 3D was a truly fantastic game. I also loved the rat talks to a degree in the game. No he isn't Master Splinter either. Although that could've been a great joke if they had an sewer level.

I already was surprised by I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream's newer version gotten onto GOG. Now I have yet another indie FPS game I really enjoyed. Honestly, a few of them I played this year. Easily among my favorites in recent years.

Games like this is why I been respecting indie developers more than big game companies. I easily would've paid $19.99 maybe $24.99 for this game. The fact this game is free virtually mind blowing. This plays just as great as similar FPS games around those prices.

You get a weird time traveling hippie chick as your biggest ally. Let's be honest, who expects an hobo to take on Nazis? I mean of course why not add in an hippie to this madness!!! Again this guy has the option to throw a rat at Nazis. I think that speaks for itself.

I know there's suppose to be Doom inspiration in this. I kinda gotten confused regarding that because of Wolfenstein. Not a lot of people knows this. Some Wolfenstein games involves other plains of existence. Spear of Destiny with it's mission packs had hell at the end of all those campaigns.

Even Wolfenstein 3D had undead soldiers. Doom obviously had a few similar enemies. The closest aspect I did think of Doom when I saw it was a few locations with lava. Doom also involved portals to hell. Which easily could've been inspired by Half-Life as well.

I know some of the enemies were notably inspired by Half-Life. I also liked you can increase your max health. Finding particular stuff increases your health over your max. At one point I had around over eight hundred HP no joke. Darkenstein 3D clearly earned my respect after fully played it.

I knew very early on I was going to love this. I felt for the most part the difficulty was well balanced. I actually enjoyed getting achievements I wasn't even going for lol. Sometimes you just wanna play the game. Then you end up getting a lot of achievements/trophies.

Darkenstein 3D was well worth the wait. This is how you properly bring back that nostalgia. At the same time adding in your own twist to spice it up. Honestly, it's a game you don't expect to work this well. Can I be honest I actually had more fun than the newer Wolfenstein games.

No disrespect towards MachineGames except for Wolfenstein: Youngblood. In the words of Mr. Horse, "No sir, I don't like it." I do prefer a more classic Wolfenstein experience than those. Darkenstein 3D kept me going for hours. A good variety of enemies that kept things interesting.

They nailed this perfectly I'm impressed. You do have the option to buy the soundtrack on Steam. There's a huge chance I'm going to in the near future. I also gotta mention the attack dogs loves to jump at ya. I will give this developer credit. None of the bosses were alike.

The regular enemies differs enough on their own. The weapons differ for a more unique FPS experience. There's a few cut scenes in the game. Alright I gotta mention this about Hitler. How he talks at all kept reminding me of G.I. Joe cartoon version of Cobra Commander.

I almost expected Hitler to say, "Hail Cobra!!!" LOL on a more serious note I felt the perfect overall ratio on everything. Just imagine if Rise of the Triad influence was in a sequel. I would be interested in someone making an FPS game. Heavily inspired by Hexen, Quake II and Shogo respectively.

I actually felt this looked and sound better than Shogo. Darkenstein 3D suddenly made a hobo into someone you really don't wanna mess with. Just like the guy in Hobo with a Shotgun movie. I don't even know if the developer seen that movie or not.

You do get to fully see Hobo Guy late into the guy. He did reminded me of Joe Baker from Resident Evil 7's End of Zoe. Both of them were going through hell to rescue someone they cared about. Darkenstein 3D should be treated as it's own classic.

This game was truly amazing at what it does. Free or not, I still felt like I spend every penny. I gotta ask my wife for a few cents lol. She'll probably say I never had any in the first place. Darkenstein 3D was a great FPS game. I easily could recommend this to a lot of people.

One of my favorite aspects was constantly kept finding secrets. A lot of it's influences shows in those secrets as well. My favorite weapon was easily the shotgun!!! No seriously this was one of the finest shotguns in FPS games I ever played!!!

Darkenstein 3D speaks volumes in it's greatness. I wouldn't even change a single major thing about the game at all. You can customize the controls, I chosen not to. I do try to respect the original control set up. I wasn't used to right mouse button being grenades or throwing the rat.

There were times by accident I press it to throw grenades I didn't wanna threw. When you finish most of the levels. It's similar to several FPS games. 100% in a few categories being the best you could do. Honestly, Darkenstein 3D came out at a great time a couple days before Halloween.

I'm glad it wasn't a trick. We actually gotten something worth calling a treat. This is great for people wanting more Wolfenstein games. Darkenstein 3D was in all honest way better than I possibly could've imagined. Here's a free game truly worth your time to play.

My thoughts on Treehouse of Horror 36

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, every year I look forward to watching the new Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror episodes. I previously given my thoughts on all the Treehouse of Horror episodes. Prior to the newest entry being Treehouse of Horror 36. I want to give my thoughts on that Halloween Simpsons episode.

Here is a link to my thoughts on Treehouse of Horror 1-34 down below...

Here is a link to my thoughts on Treehouse of Horror 35 down below...

Treehouse of Horror 36 (2025)

I will mention the beginning section done by a guest animator. Which is becoming more common within Treehouse of Horror episodes. The previous entry had Jorge R. Gutierrez the beginning section as well as the ending credits. This guest animator is Stan Kelly from The Onion. I have to clarify after doing some digging into him.

Kelly makes these parody political cartoons for his satire news show. He does a great job with his unique take for the intro section. Even Matt Groening cameos during this. I also loved they directly referenced the current season number as well. To be honest, this felt the weakest part of the entire Halloween episode.

At the same time, as unexpected it was I guess it's worked a little bit. I do prefer last year's intro animation by far!!! I will confirm beyond that intro you're really in for a great Halloween Simpsons episode. I guess they chosen to start in slow. Likely knowing these segments are going to hit ya like a truck!!!

Before I start talking about the main three stories. I really like the poster they created for this Treehouse of Horror episode. I actually felt this one pops a lot more than I expected. Easily among my favorites for Treehouse of Horror episodes from 2020s. Honestly, it's beautiful creative that tells you what insanity you're in for.

The first segment is The Last Days of Crisco. This is parodying The Blob again just done a little differently. The actual story more like The Last Thanksgiving from Thanksgiving of Horror episode. This creature steals lard from people's bodies effectively killing em. It may not sound scary but seeing what it does to people wow!!!

They actually has it's own parody poster it was great!!! They also parodying Jaws to a degree. Obviously I'm going to compare that aspect to a few Treehouse of Horror stories. Mostly likely Night of the Dolphin from Treehouse of Horror 9. It's similar to the gravy monster absorbing bones from it's victims.

I didn't expect to actually like this more than Married to the Blob from Treehouse of Horror 17. They actually had some rather decent jokes. The actual fat based monster was terrifying. It sorta reminded me of the ooze in the sewers of Ghostbusters 2 funny enough. Which also involved actions of people in a populated location.

In both cases, something beneath the town/city grew up notably larger. To the point, it's civilians became terrorized. This also had some brutal deaths. They even recreated the famous sink death scene from The Blob (1988 version). Surprisingly this is the first death in the segment we see. Of course, the mayor being a greedy prick caused a tragedy knowing this would greatly backfire on him.

The famous Homer with a hat theme catapult does make an appearance. Probably my favorite joke was the creature rips Moe apart not fully. Then the creature uses him like nunchakus. Oh come on I was really didn't expect to see that. At the same time, I did wondered how he still was alive. Not to mention, how amused I was the creature who could easily kill people does this!!!

This actually recreated what made the Blob so scary to people. They found a way to make it more Simpsons like than their last Blob parody. Personally I really enjoyed both those parodies a lot. I was more surprised Mr. Burns wasn't in any of these segments. Neither was the two aliens except their names appears on the twin girls' clothes later on.

You can tell they took time to make sure this was just right. This was a great one to kick things off with. This had the perfect when it needed to be funny. But also when it needed to be scary. Somehow they found the perfect balance for this!!! The protagonist isn't who you expect it to be either. I also gotta mention a lady kept saying the same line every time she shows up on screen was weird!!!

The second segment is Clown Night with the Devil. Yes they previously done a few stories with the Devil. Everyone knows The Devil and Homer Simpson from Treehouse of Horror IV. This time Ned isn't the Devil here. This is the second time someone sells their soul in an Treehouse of Horror story. In a way it's a spiritual successor to the famous Homer story.

I will give them credit what a twist at the end. We get to see Bart go to hell again. Personally my favorite of those was School is Hell in Treehouse of Horror 25. In both cases, Bart sent himself there. Of course they had to do an streaming job. This was quite a freaky Devil story for the show. Watching the Devil forced his way out of Ralph's body wow!!!

This is a parody of a movie called Late Night with the Devil. This one just an handful of it's description. I already knew what hell I was in for. It's one of those ideas I'm actually glad they went for!!! I also loved the Devil's appearance as well. This is why I love it when they have multiple writers for these Simpsons episodes.

This is easily the second best Devil story they ever done by far. This actually had some scary moments. Some rather painful deaths mostly from the Devil himself. I actually love this portrayal of the Devil a lot. I also gotta mention Homer's head gets forced up his butt. Which was rather unexpected when I first fully saw that moment.

I felt this is easily among the better recent Krusty stories in Treehouse of Horror episodes. They also parodied The Exorcist that gets interesting. In a way this also could be seen as a spiritual successor to The Exor-Sis from Treehouse of Horror 28. In that story Maggie gets possessed in a full Exorcist parody.

Then again that final story of the same Treehouse of Horror episode, MMM... Homer freaked me out more. Seriously how did Fox allowed this to aired? Clearly they have a thing for hell it shows. Honestly, I was surprised I actually liked this segment a lot. I actually felt this was well written. Some may criticize the pacing a bit which is understandable.

The final major segment is Plastic World. Some believed it to be a parody of the movie Waterworld. But actually parodying a newer Mad Max spin off movie instead. They didn't do well parodying Mad Max back in Treehouse of Horror 27. Then again that segment started as a parody of The Hunger Games. To be fair after I watched it I do see what they meant by that comparison.

I also love the ambitious animation angles for some of these Simpsons episodes. Just last year worked with the Robot Chicken team for Denim segment. Another unique animation style story they done I absolutely loved was Toy Gory. Treehouse of Horror 31 looked similar enough to Toy Story series.

At a point they swap from the regular animation to this plastic style animation. I always had some interest for shows that experiments with animation styles. A major reason why I love Robot Chicken so much!!! I actually was hyped for all three stories this year.

Lisa leads what was left of humanity. They found funny enough a particular store. They haven't shown on the show in a long time. Kwik-E-Mart with skeletons of Apu and Snake respectively. When the raiders led by her brother Bart shows up. I'm reminded me of Fahreinheit 451 story from Treehouse of Horror presents: Simpsons Wicked This Way Comes.

Both stories involve a group trying to save what they needed. But an opposing group attempts to take it away. Then a huge twist with some of the other Simpsons characters became plastic people. Indirectly this was like a couple Treehouse of Horror stories mostly their zombie stories. The ending really speaks for itself it's amazing as well as unsettling at it's finest.

I would say they nailed Mad Max way better this time around. Some truly impressive animation as well. This was so ambitious they almost failed to had this Halloween episode on time. They literately recently finished the episode right before it aired true story. The first two sections were done months ago. I felt this one hit me the deepest by far.

This final segment kept throwing twists. Somehow each one landed perfectly rather than ruined everything else. Which was often the problem in newer Treehouse of Horror episodes. I also found some of my favorite jokes were in this segment. There's no question, I absolutely loved this segment a lot.

They ended with the perfect segment for this Halloween episode. Again that ending alone completely sold me on everything honestly. Considering it's the most ambitious animation wise it was great!!! I felt this had the best surprises out of the three segments by far. I kept being reminded me of a particular Futurama episode about trash.

Just in case you may not seen the episode I'm referencing. The people of Earth decided to put all their trash into a gigantic trash bag. Then sent this bag out to space which later caused an situation to happen. This was similar since most of the planet was covered in plastic. I guess they never heard of recycling lol.

Somehow the plastic Simpsons characters freaks me out. Parts of their movements was a bit freaky. I absolutely loved an spicey snack caused one of them to melt that's funny!!! The special effects when they melt was mind blowing!!! Yes Maggie cameos when you at least expect it. I also loved nuclear waste caused their transformations.

What's even crazier is in some way Bart dies in every segment of this Halloween episode. The last one occurred off screen but a statute possibly confirmed how he died briefly shown. This could be seen as a spiritual successor to Groundskeeper Willie getting axed. In every segment within Treehouse of Horror 5.

The ending segment has this footage that's slowly going backwards at an angle. You kept seeing plastic versions of several Simpsons characters. Stuff like this was truly amazing. I actually loved this Treehouse of Horror episode a lot. Easily one of the finest among 2020s Halloween episodes. The entire episode was amazingly well done!!!

Now the last thing is which segment was my favorite? My least favorite to be honest I loved all three of these stories myself. The worst regardless which I picked are all recommended to watch. I have to say Clown Night with the Devil. The shortest reason why is I simply had more reasons to like the other two segments more.

To be fair, it's ending was alright compared to how those ended. Other than the little things it was a great story. This is going to be difficult like Treehouse of Horror 35 last year. I really liked two of these segments a lot. I will confirm I do like this more than that Treehouse of Horror episode. Mostly not being crazy for The Information Rage.

Although the other two segments I absolutely loved with a huge passion. Exactly how I felt about these two particular segments. Ultimately what helped made this a bit easier. I decided my favorite segment was the hardest to predict. The one that gotten the most raw emotions out of me. Even if it's by a little bit I prefer Plastic World over The Last Days of Crisco.

The Last Days of Crisco also had some of my favorite jokes. But it also was the most predictable out of the three segments. You can tell they had a lot of fun with this Halloween episode. Plastic World from start to finish ends up being interesting. There's no boring moments at all with that story. Once again that ending was truly amazing!!!

This had the most obstacles going against it from how the entire Halloween episode was created. I really couldn't believe this delivered amazingly well!!! I would even dare to say among my favorite ending segments within 2020s Treehouse of Horror episodes. I am not kidding it's that damn great!!! I even felt it out done Denim from last year that I really enjoyed as well.

I also liked The Last Days of Crisco over it. Which I really wasn't expecting to either. I am not kidding both those segments were well done!!! This actually felt like the classic Treehouse of Horror episodes to a degree. Sure it's somewhat modernize but it still works amazingly well. I really did enjoy the hell out of watching this Halloween episode the first time really speaking volumes!!!

My thoughts on Capcom believing Resident Evil remake trilogy superior to the classic versions

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I recently found out about a rather interesting statement from Capcom. It was during an interview with GOG. When Capcom stated Resident Evil remake trilogy to be superior. This upset a lot of Resident Evil fans. Possibly made some of them question to get Resident Evil Requiem or not.

I felt both Resident Evil trilogies has their strengths. Resident Evil 3 remake was simply cut down way too much. It had enough content to easily been an huge RE2 remake DLC. We don't even get The Mercenaries mini game at all!!! There's a few changes I did like. Sadly none of it was from the game play. I will be honest when I fully played RE3 classic through GOG.

I was really surprised how vastly different the two versions were. They removed a lot of what helped RE3 stand out. Like you get quick time decisions that impacts many things. An in depth creating later creating enhance variation of ammo. Several locations weren't used in the newer version at all. Even the police station now playing as Carlos was even shorter.

A lot of enemies gotten removed as well. We were lucky to get Drain Deimos in a particular section of the game. Originally you also had to deal with Brain Suckers!!! Nearly every insect enemy gone in the newer version. They even removed at some spots randomized what could be there. For example, it could be zombies to zombie dogs to crows even Nemesis himself.

Majority of the uniqueness RE3 classic had gone!!! Brad shows up a few times in the campaign. His final appearance being the missing RE2 remake zombie appearance. Although in this particular case it made more sense to do that. We actually get to see how Marvin gotten bitten. You could kill off Zombie Brad but you don't get gain anything this time though.

I also felt the newer version removal of Grave Digger played heavily into it's repetitive design. Majority of the bosses was Nemesis with the only possible exception. If you could call it one was Nicholai at the very end of the campaign. You got to time firing your shot then the game is over. This sucks compared to how he could've gotten killed in the original version.

He also had an optional helicopter boss fight. Which was kinda unique for it's time. Sure it's a huge pain to deal with. You also gotta realize they pulled this off on PlayStation 1. A little after Metal Gear Solid and Syphon Filter. Bosses like this were difficult to animate during this era of gaming. All those games are in 3D making it rather impressive.

I actually prefer the later Nemesis appearances in the classic version more. The version without armor with his tentacles exposed I loved that!!! Then among devouring some of a deceased Tyrant, Nemesis mutates. I always found this final form a bit weird. I do like both of his brains are showcased. You gotta fight him off while pushing stuff in to help with the rail gun.

Among defeating him you get two choices Nemesis dies regardless. Either you leave him behind to get nukem or directly finish him off in a rather sick cut scene. I wasn't a fan of the later appearances of Nemesis in the newer version. Suddenly, he became a huge monster that quickly runs away. Easily make long distance jumps reminding me of a few Metal Gear boss fights.

If anyone wondering which MG boss fights? Peace Walker had some AI weapons with some similar animations. I do prefer the final form of Nemesis in the newer version. Although it was pretty cool to use the rail gun. I felt some aspects of this boss fight was a bit too easy. Not to mention, Nemesis was a little too easy to predict what he's going to do.

Unless it's the harder difficulties that suddenly broken. Yeah I really gotta mention something about the difficulty. RE3 classic is a little funny regarding it's difficulty. Expect to die a lot there's plenty of ways you can easily die. But eventually you'll get a bit better at the game. It's more forgiving than the two hardest difficulties in the newer version!!!

Neither version going to be a cake walk let's be honest. RE3 classic has additional stuff that helps you a bit more. RE3 remake does have buying DLCs including all the unlockables. I know a lot of people hated some RE games does that. Even those doesn't help much against the final Nemesis boss fight on those difficulties!!!

The newer version felt shorter than the original version. In RE3 remake you could more easily run pass enemies. Much fewer puzzles compared to the original game. Which heavily impacted everything in the long run. I do get the newer versions they wanted to more directly tie in events of the later entries. Despite having slightly more hidden weapons than the original version.

Let's be honest you really aren't missing much here. I highly recommend you play RE3 classic instead. It's simply way more of a complete RE experience. Now I always respected Resident Evil 1 and 2 remakes for many years. I think I'll say it best with several aspects were done better in the classic versions. Other aspects were surprisingly done a little better in the newer versions.

Resident Evil 1 remake greatly expanded what the classic version had. You get more locations with actual story to tie in everything. I do enjoy majority of the locations in both versions. I confess I do prefer the remake versions of those shared locations a bit more. Not to say those same locations didn't feel complete or anything.

I know stuff like this can differ with the RE fans. The newer locations I actually found quite interesting. They even made the location with infected sharks stand out more. I also prefer how you find the elevator that leads into the underground laboratory a bit more. Soundtracks can differ to a degree. Director's Cut DualShock Edition had the worst lol.

I will say the other two soundtracks holds up amazingly well. It's highly debatable which soundtrack is slightly better. You could easily argue some versions of the songs being better. Both versions has amazing sound effects for their time. Unlike most RE remakes, none of the enemies were cut. They even made the later Yawn boss fight a bit more interesting.

Sure the newer version was more heavily puzzle usage. A lot of RE fans actually loved that about the newer version. Controls is one of those it depends on whoever playing the game prefers more thing. I personally grew up with the classic tank controls. Which isn't as close as bad as a lot of people make it out to be.

I felt the controls are really close in all honestly. It's more about the mechanics than anything else. The newer version has secondary defense weapons with one being shared by the protagonists. This is great when you gotta run through areas while being low on ammo. Suddenly enemies that attack you gets prevented while your character automatically use those weapons.

Unless you switch that off otherwise it's a great idea. I do felt the original version as well as the first Director's Cut version. Sadly I never gotten to play but I seen people played it a few ways. The cut scene before the main menu always sticked with me. I actually prefer the character selection screen a bit more.

I will give credit to the newer version's intro it's quite good. There's just something unique as well as special about the original version's intro. Which can differ depending on versions of the game. You clearly see it's inspired by Romero's Dead series especially the older zombie movies. To me, regardless of which version that intro simply came off being scarier.

I love along with the endings, those sections were done in live action. Sure, in both versions the endings plays out very similar. I slightly do prefer the classic versions of those endings more. Voice acting wise, I do like both version's a lot for different reasons. In the newer version, you can tell they care about the game.

It's among the best usage of a voice cast in an RE game I felt. At the same time, we had such rememberable, cheesy voice overs. Not to mention, lines you couldn't make up today lol. In a sense, among hearing those lines to the newer versions. It kinda takes away from them a little bit. I do felt the enemies were done slightly better in the newer version too.

Now you gotta either blow off zombie's heads or use a particular item with an lighter to burn their corpses. Otherwise, they will transform into Crimson Heads. Imagine more aggressive faster zombies in a nut shell. Suddenly zombies are scarier with that mechanic in play. Some of the death animations was a little better in the classic version.

One of my favorites was your head gets decapitated by a hunter with a lot of blood. What also helped was the famous game over screen with such a painful scream. I don't think the newer version is a blow out like Capcom claims to be. Both versions has their strengths. In fact, I highly recommend playing both versions.

Also expect to die a lot until you figure out a lot of the campaigns. There's some notable differences between the two protagonists. I also prefer the classic Tyrant attacks Wesker a bit more cut scene. I have nothing against the newer version. Where the Tyrant instantly goes for an impale claw attack to Wesker. Keep in mind, the creature still inside it's tank while doing this.

I do see how that could scare people. But seeing the Tyrant go from about to attack you regardless who you're playing as. Suddenly going to attack Wesker was genius!!! I may also prefer Wesker's death animation a little more. By the way, it was confirmed a few ways yes Wesker did die. Even moments like Enrico gets killed was a little better in the classic version.

I will give the newer version credit making some aspects of that moment a little more interesting. I felt moments like those was a little better in the classic version. I do prefer some newer version of the boss fights. Mostly the later Yawn boss fight and Plant-42 respectively. Majority of them remains the same with the newer version having a few more bosses.

My favorite among those bosses by far was Crimson Head Prototype aka George Trevor. This Crimson Head locked inside a coffin hanged up by chains. Each death mask correctly places loosen an chain holding that coffin up. I especially love how this creature gets up from the coffin. Easily among the scariest bosses in Resident Evil remake series.

Obviously, the map is a little easier to memorize in the classic version. Some might prefer it for that reason. A major thing I liked about the classic version more. Later into the newer version, you got to fill this capsule up. However you can't get attacked or run for too long. Otherwise you'll explode making things intense.

Sure you could kill the enemies directly in that path to make it a bit easier. I'm glad I don't have to do this in the classic version. I do prefer some classic puzzles more over some of the newer ones. Majority of the puzzles are great testing your wits during game play. If I had to give a particular example. Both has you needing a particular key to unlock the door.

Inside this long room has paintings for a puzzle. Originally you had to correct select each stage of a person's life span. Which was a rather cool theme for such an puzzle. They changed it to being this somewhat interesting jewelry color puzzle. The big twist is among pressing the buttons alters the color revealing their true colors.

This puzzle is notably easier as well as shorter than the original puzzle. I also particular some key item usage a little more in the classic version. A perfect example is you'll need four crests to unlock more of the outside locations. They changed the key item to unlock the same door in the newer version. Which also gets used to unlock a different location later on with another of the same key item.

As for the crests, there's a small graveyard area with crows. You have to find one of the crests. Don't worry the rest of the crests already nearby. Correctly placing them all gives you one of the magnums in the game. It sucks they now became optional for a great firearm. I also slightly prefer the first hunter cut scene.

To me, even seen both versions of the same cut scene. I felt the classic version was a bit scarier. I slightly prefer the enemies' sounds more as well. I actually prefer the newer version weapon sound effects a bit more. Although I still prefer blowing an zombie's head off sound effect more in the classic version.

Let's be honest, both versions with both characters isn't much longer either. Some may consider the newer version being a little longer. Mostly due to how much they changed from the classic version. Very little stays the same if you played the classic version first. Honestly if you could mod either version with exactly how the other version does better.

This could be as close to a true definitive RE1 experience possible. End of the day, it's not by much which version ends up being superior. It's easy to prefer either version over the other for many reasons. Where it stands I do prefer the newer version a bit more. However this isn't a clear blow out. Two legendary survival horror games that held up incredibly well to time.

Ultimately it comes down to which aspects of both versions you like more. As for Resident Evil 2, I always been a huge fan of both versions for a long time. It meant so much to me to finally play RE2 classic again. Just like RE1 side of the topic I personally felt both versions does things. Just a little better not being a clear blow out either.

Both The Fourth Survivor and The Tofu Survivor I really prefer in the newer version. I wasn't a fan of how they originally went about those mini games myself. Depending on versions, RE2 classic could also have Extreme Battle mode or not. Obviously I gotta compare this to The Ghost Survivors. Both mini games has their strengths as well as weaknesses.

The Ghost Survivors are non canon what if scenarios. All the playable characters originally died during the campaign. Three of the four scenarios is get from point a to point b. But there's an exclusive enemy that's a huge obstacle for each character. The sheriff gets kill all the enemies inside a store. Which does include the three exclusive enemies from those scenarios.

My big issue is these were more meant for hardcore RE players. There's a lot that could go wrong in all those scenarios. I do like how greatly each of the scenarios differs from each other. Extreme Battle mode has Leon, Claire, Ada and surprisingly Claire's brother Chris respectively. This is broken up into a few stages.

Majority of them is simply get to point a to point b. The final stage throws a huge curve ball. You must collect all the anti-virus bombs. Among collected the last one just leave that location to end the run. This felt more arcade style in comparison. There's slightly more difficulty levels than The Ghost Survivors. You also could run into G4 William as well.

I felt Extreme Battle mode is better balanced difficulty wise. I won't sugar coat this any further I prefer it over The Ghost Survivors. I do respect the intention of that mini game. I just felt parts of it could've been done a bit differently. There's more customization in the newer version. You easily can swap em out on the fly.

This is way better than you must get to the police station yes difficulty matters. If you do so without picking up any ammo. Go down the stairs to see if Zombie Brad there or not. If he is, you can now pick up ammo. He's among the strongest zombies in the game. But killing him gives you a particular key to a closet.

What's inside differs for the two protagonists. For Leon, he gets a choice of two additional outfits to wear. For Claire, she gets one additional outfit with a gun. Revolver Ocelot much? LOL it's the same gun how could I not make that joke come on? There's slightly more hidden weapons in the newer version.

I prefer the classic version of the shared hidden weapons a bit more. Some enemies were removed from the newer version. Not to mention, there's multiple G-Types that's only in the sewer. Originally you face one as the first boss in either character's 1st campaigns. Yes both versions has two versions of each character's campaigns respectively.

Among a closer look I gotta agree the classic version of the later scenarios was done better. In the newer version now called 2nd Run. Majority of the stuff in the police station done already. You can leave the police station way sooner. Beyond that, almost the remind of those campaigns is the same. The only remaining big difference is now you gotta face an additional true final boss.

G5 William whose remotely about the same. I felt the newer version tanks more damage. Both versions of that final boss fight differs. The classic camera view you remotely could see the distance between you and the monster. In the newer version, now in this unique third person camera style. You can directly look at G5 William now.

Personally I felt not being fully able to see him was much scarier. There also was more notable interaction between the two protagonist than in the newer version. Although, they added in a quick flirt cut scene. Scenario B was a vastly different beast for both characters. If you haven't played those versions of the campaign.

You may struggle a bit with learning everything again. It was essentially four RE games in one done right not sorry RE6 lol. This also affects Ben and Chief Irons' death cut scenes as well. Scenario B does change up the boss lineup to a degree as well. No question I greatly prefer Scenario B over 2nd Run versions of those campaigns.

Another notable difference is particular stuff only Leon could do. In comparison to stuff only Claire could do. I will agree this was a rather unique concept. Sure it could be considered taking some stuff away from the overall experience. Originally, both the protagonists can get all four keys that's card suite theme.

They changed to Leon gets the Clover Key while Claire gets the Heart Key. Suddenly, a few locations as either character you can't go originally makes more sense. Leon faces both the Alligator and Super Tyrant bosses in his campaigns. In vice versa, Claire gets to face G4 William instead. Which is kinda interesting because originally there was no campaigns.

You could face all William forms prior to this. Claire's 2nd Run version is the only RE2 campaign you can face every form of William in a single run!!! Clearly this was the newer version's attempt to differ things between the campaigns. I just felt the classic version differs way more in comparison. I do respect the newer version has two soundtrack including the classic RE2 soundtrack.

I do like the newer RE2 soundtrack myself. I simply prefer the classic RE2 soundtrack a bit more. I also agree both has some truly amazing sound effects. I always prefer RE2 classic's a bit more. Especially when you blow zombies apart I love that!!! Of course, a few spots you can fire directly at the camera. I personally love that sound effect too.

I'll be honest I do slightly prefer the classic enemy sounds more. I will say I do prefer the boss fights more in the newer version. Although not by much some of those I do prefer in the classic version more. A good example being G2 William. I simply love we go outside this vehicle used for a huge moving platform.

Then suddenly we get to see William transform then jumps down. This occurs in both character's Scenario As respectively. There's a later William encounter he attempts to claw ya from above. Now that was way scarier than anything the newer version does!!! Some characters I felt were notably done in the newer version.

I also prefer the Tyrant's appearance with a hat more. I kinda felt how they went about the tyrant outside his boss fight vastly different. Originally, he only appears in either character's Scenario B campaigns. Now in the newer version, the Tyrant appears in every version of the campaign. Also he was automatically show up at several locations.

I felt majority of those was done well for it's time. They changed this to now he pursues either character mostly in the police station. There's a few exceptions with a rather cool cut scene. Tyrant attempts to get Claire and Sherry. Out of no where he gets one shot by William. I absolutely loved this moment a lot. William always been among my favorite RE monsters.

As for Sherry/Ada portions of the campaigns. Originally with a few minor differences. You quickly do a crate puzzle to get the Clover Key. Then head back to where you gotten separated from whoever's campaign you're playing. They threw over the key they just picked up then leaves. They later are briefly playable in the sewers.

This is the most both these secondary playable characters differs. Sherry simply picks up one of your next key items. Ada explores a little bit in the sewers. Vastly different experiences in the newer version. Sherry gets this chasing/stealth section now. You run away from Chief Irons during it. Ada gets a more interesting section with a death puzzle to survive.

They even put one of her gadgets to use as well. Scenario B does affect some moments with them as well. For Ada, in Scenario A she gets shot to fall off the rails. But in Scenario B, she pisses off the Tyrant to supposedly die upsetting Leon. She mysteriously comes back with a rocket launcher. Which she also does for Claire no joke despite never officially met her.

Both versions of the Super Tyrant boss fights is vastly different as well. Originally, he's quite similar to Tyrant-103 in the original Resident Evil. Both ends with a rocket launcher shot. Although you still have to use the rocket launcher to end the boss fight. Super Tyrant has a few more attacks including an instant death attack.

A vastly different look for that transformation. I actually prefer the classic look way more. I just couldn't get into the newer version of the same form. I do prefer the newer version of the Alligator boss fight. But I prefer the fast kill method in the classic version more. You simply go to this button to press. It drops an tank simply wait for the Alligator to put the tank in it's mouth.

Fire a shot to blow it's fricking head off!!! This was such a sick animation for it's time I love it!!! I also like some versions of RE2 classic has a code for infinite ammo. Although in the newer version, if you maintain to meet the requirement for limiting your shots. As The Sheriff in The Ghost Survivors, you'll get cat ears that does the same thing.

It's safe to say give me that code!!! I know some versions of RE2 were on two discs. Honestly it was a clever design decision. Majority of everything else on both discs. The only real difference between who you play as in the campaigns. I confess I do like either PS1 version disc designs I had both of them. Let's put it this way doing this with Devil May Cry 2 made no sense!!!

People often forget for multiple disc PS1 games. You can easily open up the disc tray to swap out discs. Each campaign being a few hours long quickly made this not an issue. I also prefer the reveal of Marvin turned into a zombie in the classic version more. You finally meet up with him to suddenly see his appearance changed in a cut scene.

I also prefer Marvin's cut scene in either Scenario As. Marvin fills you in what's going on. Which ends with him forcing you to leave with a gun pointed at ya. In the newer version, he quickly saves you from a zombie. Marvin had more voice overs in the newer version. This is one of those aspects parts from both versions would've made it way better thing.

Either you get those cut scenes or you hear more dialogue from Marvin? I do love the police station in both versions. I slightly prefer the classic version a bit more. It's nothing personal against the newer version either. The sewers I do get more in the newer version. For me, either version regardless of campaigns felt among the shorter sections of those RE games.

Of course, we gotta talk about the final location being a well hidden underground laboratory. I actually felt they made it a bit too short in the newer version. I also prefer the actual look of the laboratory as a whole more in the classic version. I just felt all the stuff that happens being more interesting in the classic version.

Again I'm not saying it's boring at all in the newer version. It's a bit tricky to explain unless you played both versions. One notable change is William after getting hit with acid attacks Annette in the newer version. Suddenly, you realize how much of a threat that creature is. I will give credit for making Ivys actually scary!!!

The classic version works for the most part. But in the remake version, Ivys became instant death enemies. Unless you prevent them from killing you. You also have to burn em to kill off. By default you gotta run past hoping you don't get grab. Sometimes you could use one of your firearms. Then keep on firing until they fall down.

I don't recommend doing that since they can be surprisingly tanker than they appear to be. They also have this truly sick newer appearance I love so much!!! I do got to discuss the puzzles. None of them are shared this time around. Although many key items are presented in both versions. I do prefer the chess theme key items has more interesting usage in the newer version.

I felt the newer version had slightly tricky puzzles to solve. I do like you have the option in the classic version. When you find wire you could use it on a few spots to prevent zombies getting inside. You won't be able to prevent all locations. I do love how they changed this in the newer version. Zombies that's outside the building will attempt to break their way inside.

You could find wood to board up the windows or kill off the zombies. Sadly the iconic zombie sections with some of the zombie's arms. Trying to get ya from the classic version not in there. Another missing thing was tone down the gore. There's no question I prefer the classic version's gore more. In the newer version you could blow off zombie heads.

Which is easily it's best usage of gore in that version. Originally you could cut, shoot or blown off pieces of zombies!!! One of my personal favorite classic RE animations is blowing zombies in half. This was such a cool animation for it's time. Often doesn't kill off zombies afterwards. I was hoping slightly more gore in the newer version.

Obviously people going to be funny with the controls. Again it depends on your taste classic tank controls or this rather unique third person shooter style? I highly recommend both versions of this game. For me this is among the hardest to pick a definitive version because they're both that damn great!!! Again I don't think RE2 remake better or not is superior.

I strongly felt just like RE1, both versions has some truly amazing things over each other. The newer version of RE2 you could expand the inventory more than once. Originally if you go the extra route unlock a room. Inside a locker you have the option to take either an submachine or additional inventory slots.

Which simply ups your default inventory slot amount up by two. However whatever's left in that locker in Scenario B is what the other playable character gets. The newer version has more room of an inventory you can use. You even can drop things on the fly too. Also you don't have to worry about finding ink ribbons to save your process.

Let's be honest, this is a rather minor issue for experienced RE players. I just don't like how some of them makes such a thing a big deal when it never was in the first place. I do actually prefer the classic saving system for a great reason. Majority of modes has particular colors. It may take a little time to memorize which color represents what.

This greatly helps you figure out which save you wanna play. I actually wished they would've brought this feature back as well. The newer version was more designed to get speed ran by people. Which means it's actually easier to get around the enemies. For Lickers, walking slow hoping other enemies aren't nearby.

You can easily get around them instead of they automatically know you're there ready to attack ya. You also get some defense weapons to help off some of the enemies as well. They did change some aspects of the story. Mostly the Tyrant himself being the best example. Originally the Tyrant was intended to locate and bring an G-Virus sample.

The little girl unknowingly had the sample. They changed it to the Tyrant acts more like removing people revealing the truth. Which made more sense in comparison. Both versions was working for Umbrella. The later reason just lines up more with the corporation. They did add in another location for Claire's campaigns.

Sherry's portion takes place at the orphanage. Later on, Claire gets to explore there for a little while. This was a nice surprise for Claire's portion of the game. I know I'm going rather in depth with this RE topic. I personally felt I should to help prove an point. With the possible exception of RE3 remake not superior than the classic version.

Most RE fans felt the world needs both versions of the Resident Evil trilogies. It's purely up to debate which each RE fan considers superior? It kills me Capcom themselves didn't see the demand for the classic RE trilogy. They even stated the newer RE trilogy being superior hurts a lot. There's a few factors what this statement could mean.

Either they didn't realize there was a demand for them at all. Which doesn't make any real sense. There's plenty of examples the RE fans went out of their way to express. How much they really wanted those RE games back. They didn't want to go through the trouble of bringing them back fully. Let's be honest, there's several game companies that's been bringing back many classic video games.

They easily could've gotten any of those companies to port those classic RE games to consoles. I know those classic RE games now on PS4/PS5 respectively. Maybe they felt it's easier to get the newer versions working on most platforms. However RE classic trilogy is a lot smaller in data size. Which were all within Megabytes to the newer versions being more Gigabytes.

The newer versions are a lot bigger in data size is the point. GOG done a truly amazing job bringing back the classic RE trilogy. Another possible reason could be Capcom didn't care enough to do it. I felt a lot of Resident Evil fans could side with that reason. For the most part both RE trilogies means a lot to the RE fans!!!

Majority of us wants most of those RE games to play!!! Most of them are truly amazing survival horror games. Now all of a sudden why we didn't get a proper Dino Crisis revival making more sense. We were lucky to get the first two Dino Crisis games on GOG after all. Honestly, it's amazing they didn't even know their own fan base like this.

Resident Evil is among the best selling video game franchises in the world. Already big enough people within Hollywood knows of the franchise. Each newer main installment heavily hyped up by the fans including myself. I do wanna play Resident Evil Requiem soon. I know big game companies aren't perfect either.

I'm thankfully to currently have access to all those Resident Evil games. Sure it would be nice to get more RE games onto GOG in the near future just saying. What do we the fans needs to do for you Capcom to see how much we want something? A lot of us wants Code: Veronica and Dino Crisis to get remakes.

This one statement causes a lot of videos to show up on YouTube. Honestly, the point is Capcom failed to know it's own RE fan base like this!!! I know there's some deeply passionate RE fans within the community. Bringing those classic RE games in some form meant the world to em. I felt I went on long enough Capcom better do their research.

I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream follow up

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, I didn't plan on revisiting I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. As in the classic horror DOS game. My old review was way back in 2019 a long time now. I guess time has little meaning to these protagonists. Yesterday, GOG updated the game to be the newest version. You know the same version that's on consoles earlier this year?

Here is a link to my old review of this game down below...

I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream (2025 version)

Thankfully I didn't have to buy the same game again. I wasn't expecting that to happen with this since it's not an Bethesda video game. Although Nightdive was involved with this newer version. This actually on a different engine from majority of their remastered games on KEX engine. The engine in question was later used on Beat 'Em Up Collection (QUByte Classics).

Not to be confused with Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle. Which so happens to have seven beat em up games as well. A brief summary how this game works. It's based on a story of the same name by Harlan Ellison. Speaking of Ellison, he voices AM an AI that's taken over the world. For it's personal amusement forced five people into simulations representing what some considers to be their personal hell!!!

It's kinda amusing parts of this concept later used in Saints Row IV funny enough. You get five characters to play as. The game actually allows you to do their sections in any order. The endgame will follow shortly among finishing up their sections. I also gotta say there's some decent voice acting. This newer version was designed to work with controllers.

Unfortunately my controller didn't work with the game. Which is just a minor setback since it's a horror point & click game. I love how each of their stories differs so much. At the same time, all of it ties in together because AM torturing them all. It's very sadistic of a concept as inhumanly possible. You also get a decent size inventory system.

I dislike when you are limited how much you could use. I know some prefer it to be more limited. Which does make some of those similar style games more difficult. Sometimes forces in some back tracking. There was some back tracking during my newer playthrough. You might be surprise some of the topics this game covers.

As for achievement/trophy hunting it's easier than expected. You can find plenty of guides to make sure you get them all. It doesn't even include an achievement/trophy for beating the game. Not to mention, Nimdok's section lacks achievements/trophies altogether. To me both of those decisions was rather unusual.

Then again this game is rather unusual to begin with. I kinda hope the same engine gets used on a newer version of Harvester. This wasn't meant to be a scary game. I do see ways it could scare some people though. This is more about some twisted logic than anything else. Maybe not as out there as The Dream Machine.

Another horror point & click game I need to eventually finish. If you wanna see some weird stuff go play that!!! Back to this, it will take you a few hours following an guide to beat the game. It heavily plays off a moral system. If you keep doing good things, it'll help your chances at beating AM later. But you keep doing bad things not so much.

Honestly, a great game that does such an system is Fallout: New Vegas. There's some complexity within it's surprisingly simplify design. Here's a game you could die in if you aren't careful. Thankfully for the most part you can take your sweet time to play the game. I always welcome that for games you have a lot to do before finishing out sections.

Yes this game held up better than I expected. This is a sleeper hit for the genre. There's plenty of YouTubers that covered the game over the years. There's some cool bonus stuff in the newer version. Nothing actually new within the game itself. You can check out some stuff like listening to songs from it's soundtrack.

I will say this game plays a lot better than what I remembered of the DOS version. I also wish I could figure out to make the game's screen smaller. A lot of stuff you gotta do isn't that clear to figure out on your own. Unless you played through the game enough times. Games like this I prefer to play em windowed.

Basically it doesn't cover the entire screen. You could easily look up stuff. To be fair, it works much better than the original version in that area. If you tried to look stuff up while playing DOS games. The screen suddenly becomes smaller. It doesn't fit properly when you make it bigger. Unless you know how to fix it.

Thank god I never had that issue with this newer version. This is quite faithful to the original version. On those grounds the original story this game based on. I think the author who passed away would've enjoyed this version of the game more. This was a great remastered of a forgotten classic. I do recommend more people check this game out soon.

Shriek if You Know What I Did Last Friday the 13th (2000) review

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, there was another horror parody movie about Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. Which so happened to come out the same year as Scream 3 aas well as the original Scary Movie. It's called Shriek if You Know What I Did Last Friday the 13th. I recently watched this on Tubi I'll give you my thoughts over reviewing the movie.

Shriek if You Know What I Did Last Friday the 13th (2000)

Just like the original Scary Movie. Despite all the movies they parodied. It mostly was parodying the original Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer respectively. This actually came out last in the year of 2000. I strongly felt this is ripping off the original Scary Movie more than anything. Some of the same scenes gotten parodied.

Simply done differently to the point they were made to be incredibly stupid. Not even five minutes into the movie hiding it's a horror parody movie. This is much less focus than Scary Movie. I even felt Scary Movie 2 that parodied a lot more movies was done better!!! Originally the killer wore a hockey mask.

The killer stupidly caught his mask on fire. Which melted to look like an huge Ghostface mask. Honestly I prefer that later mask more. This movie barely takes itself seriously. Even when you expect it should at times. I also gotta mention the late rapper Coolio in the movie. It's a bit better of a performance than his role in Dracula 3000.

This movie is all over the place like a lot of newer parody movies. Nothing truly comes together at all. Currently the worst Ghostface horror movie I ever seen!!! None of the characters were remotely likeable. The closest characters I liked so happened to be played by Tom Arnold. I didn't expect Arnold to be in this movie!!!

There's some rather loose horror references. Like this kid dressed up like Chucky. Then says the famous Good Guys line. Honestly, Stan Helsing was a more entertaining movie than this!!! This high school has so many classes that couldn't be in real high schools. A lot of these jokes hit missing with little to none gets a little laugh.

The movie itself is kinda lackluster at best. Even the kills weren't anything worth writing home again. They don't even connect I Know What You Did Last Summer plot to everything. It's sorta in your face just never properly finishes. Even The Simpsons with Treehouse of Horror 10's I Know What You Diddily-Iddily-Did story better.

Scary Movie series had some dumb characters. Somehow the characters in this made them look like geniuses!!! There was one weird special effect usage with Coolio's character's death. It was very out of place with everything else in the movie. You can tell this had a smaller budget than Scary Movie 1.

Don't expect very much while watching this movie. Especially don't compare it to Scream series. Even Scream 3 way better than this!!! Honestly, this was better than many parody movies I seen. It felt like a huge waste of time. There's little to no real reason to watch this. Clearly 2000 had better Ghostface movies you could watch.

The main target was the new student. Which by itself doesn't make much sense. I figured to reveal who was the killer trust me it's kinda stupid. The killer was an evil twin cousin of the main security guy I'm not kidding. If you seen Scooby-Doo and the Boo Brothers movie. A similar twist involving this one character being the sheriff's twin brother.

Therefore, this cousin twist comes off being uninspired. It's almost like they couldn't think of a way to make the identity reveal interesting. The killer wore so many masks before getting fully unmasked. Arnold also in a cameo for Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare. A movie I found more entertaining than this!!!

Ultimately the good Arnold character was going to let his cousin go. Not long after that, shot him a few times. As I previously stated this entire movie doesn't make any sense. The best death in the movie was accidental that caused an explosion. Honestly, how they parodied the Scream scenes were all done horribly.

I felt the jokes went on too long. Not to mention, somehow they made such iconic moments. Into some of the stupidest, terrible variations of them. It virtually screams being a rip off of Scary Movie 1. At least Scary Movie fully came together with some great jokes. The only small positive is somehow it's slightly better than Scary Movie 5.

Let's be brutally honest, that's not really saying much. Scary Movie 4 had the famous Dr. Phil and Shaq scene. A few rememberable moments following that. It's safe to say that's better than this too. Scary Movie 3 despite not being done by the Wayan brothers was a lot funnier!!! Let's not compare this to the first three Scary Movie films.

It's amazing they made Ghostface such a lackluster slash villain here. I also gotta mention the later portions took place on Friday the 13th. You know the famous bad luck days of the year? Just like how they used I Know What You Did Last Summer. This also never truly came together at all. Honestly, I recommend watching Scream series as well as the original Scary Movie.

Those Ghostface movies are way better than this garbage!!! You could easily get confuse with the weird pacing. You also get a lot of random stuff you try to see. Sometimes you might need to rewind a little bit then pause. Just to see what you miss isn't fun at all. This movie felt like a cheap excuse of making their own Ghostface movie.

Considering it's budget of $5 million dollars. I seen some amazing lower budget horror movies!!! I don't think it's about how much money you have. It's more about how well you use your money. Even Popeye's Revenge had more going for it than this!!! Let's not even compare this to Screamboat a much better lower budget horror movie!!!

Thankfully you could watch this for free on Tubi. Easily the only way I recommend watching this. Seriously whose going to buy this movie on any services? Virtually nothing works with the deaths being far less interesting than expected. Just imagine a version of Scream that's low budget filled with bad jokes you'll get this!!!

My Favorite Villains theme Death Battle episodes

Hello everyone I'm XboxClown89, some of my absolute favorite Death Battle episodes. Actually were more villain theme that ended up being more interesting than expected. I know this might be a little early since the new season approaching it's end. We don't know if any remaining unconfirmed match up episodes going to be villain theme or not.

I know Gru vs Megamind going to happen soon. But they were villains that ended up becoming heroes. I'm not sure if I could work with that for this blog entry. If I had chosen to wait on doing this or not. I will say this though I'm very sure it's going to be a great episode. I just felt bad for Megamind fans last year with not great stuff for Megamind franchise.

Joker vs Sweet Tooth

I actually have a personal connection on a few fronts with this match up. This was one of my most wanted child hood matches. I even gotten my original Death Battle prediction blog on ScrewAttack's front page. Back when it was ScrewAttack a long time ago. I always been a huge fan of both these evil clown characters.

My prediction came true Joker did indeed won. Sadly this might be the only time they'll do Twisted Metal on the show. At the same time, this was a rather fair match up for both characters. Right now people wants Joker to face Green Goblin!!! Yeah no thank you that's going to suck. Especially compared to this episode it's no contest.

I loved this starts as a car combat scenario. At one point, Joker gets inside his ice cream truck. The animation for the fight was amazing. Most of the episode still holds up incredibly well. Despite Season 3 being one of my least favorite seasons. This was a great one to do in 3D animation. It really lived up to my expectations.

Shredder vs Silver Samurai

I know some might be a little confusing. Not about including the solo match up with an TMNT villain character. More on the fact both of them has traits of samurais and ninjas. If you know the actual history of ninjas. They had personal dislike to how governments at that time being ran. Originally started with farmers funny enough that stood a stand against em.

Both of them has a recurring capable mutant enemy. Obviously in most TMNT franchise, Shredder is the turtles' arch enemy. Silver Samurai is one of Wolverine's greatest enemies. Considering Wolverine has hundreds of years worth of experience that's saying something. It's a rather unique take on the concept of ninja vs samurai.

Silver Samurai had superior armor with his mutant powers increases his sword's cuts. Not a lot of people knows main TMNT comic version of Shredder. Actually mastered most fighting styles like Wolverine. I'm very surprised they didn't use that in their long list of arguments. I was quite happy to see Shredder on the show.

Carnage vs Lucy

This was a rather unexpected one for it's time. Literately no one knew this was coming when it gotten announced. In fact, at the time most DB viewers didn't even know who Lucy was. Of course I did since I seen the show. I later fully read the manga series as well. This is more of an antihero taking on an villain.

Lucy is essentially a neutral character. She also suffers from multiple personalities. One of her newer personalities is such a sweet person. As the events went on, she ended up doing some good things. It doesn't change the fact she murdered a lot of people. She has some form of humanity while Carnage virtually none at all.

I am a huge fan of both these characters. I really was expected they went for Carnage!!! Easily, among the most evil of Spider-Man's enemies. Then we have this chick of a nearly extinct species. Who has many invisible, longer arms. Capable of easily ripping humans apart with ease. This sounds like a great one to do for an Halloween episode right?

Ultron vs Sigma

Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite took away some of it's appeal. I really glad they didn't do Ultron vs Brainiac. Which in recent years I kept finding to be a bit boring. Especially compared to this one what a great idea!!! Two computer viruses with some strong connections. Sigma was originally meant to fight against Mavericks.

He ended becoming the worst of them through a weird fuse infection thing. He was designed to not get infected by the Maverick Virus. Ultron is usually fighting the Avengers. It's not often he fights anyone alone either. This AI was so dangerous, they even attempted to prevent his creation. Obviously they couldn't stop that from happening like Skynet lol.

Oh come on you knew that Terminator joke was coming lol. I also love they went for a war theme. At the time, we needed a better example than Eggman vs Wily. Someone had to say it oh okay!!! I simply love everything about this episode. I would even dare to say these two are virtually the same character.

Ganondorf vs Dracula

Easily among my most personal favorites. I always disliked Ganon's original episode. No I didn't want him to die because he killed Bowser either. It just came off as a rather unfair match up that's rigged. Bowser had no real way to put Ganon down for good. Despite how ridiculous he truly was with magic. Not to mention both these matches could be recreated in Super Smash Brothers series now.

Now putting Ganon against Dracula was pure genius!!! Not only this made more sense than his last episode. You also could argue they virtually are the same character as well. Even bringing in their original game's release dates. Ganon came first by couple months in 1986. Although the United States gotten the original Castlevania first by a few months the following year.

Two dark lords with rather impressive feats. Who wouldn't wanna see these two go at it? Even death is a small thing they always come back. Both widely known for impressive magic usage. A lot of big named villains under their command. A truly sick 3D animation fight. This is one of my absolute favorite Halloween Death Battle episodes to date.

Venom vs Crona

This would be a spiritual successor to Carnage vs Lucy. Which does get referenced in the actual episode. I simply love the concept of this match up. It's essentially two on two with both duos having a rather unique connection. Both had a parasitic partner that's more ready to fight. At times must deal with their human hosts in many situations.

The fight animation was amazing stuff. It's a match up as soon as I seen. I already knew which duo going to win. This was a great one for Halloween as well. What surprised me was their actual connections thank you Death Battle wiki. I was happy Soul Eater finally gotten onto the show. More recently with Maka vs Ruby another great episode as well.

I also love how unexpected of a match up this was for it's time. Crona's gender I don't think ever gotten revealed. It didn't affect things much though. These two duos were vastly different in many ways. I actually wish the fight was a little bit longer. I'm quite happy with what we were given as well. It was a great introduction for Soul Eater on the show.

Lex Luthor vs Doctor Doom

I know hard to believe any Marvel vs DC match up made the lineup here. Let's be honest these two has a rather impressive list of feats. I'm a bigger fan of Doctor Doom myself. This was a little closer than what I was expecting honestly. The fight song I absolutely love it!!! This was both characters' second episode on the show.

I actually felt for Doctor Doom it truly was his best to date. I kept going between both of Luthor's episodes honestly. I seriously love both those episodes a lot as well. I knew Doctor Doom had some critical advantages. If anyone had a great chance lasting a long time it's Luthor. To be fair, on both his episodes they kept mentioning kryptonite weaponry isn't the best.

I would be more terrified of the man who easily steal deity's powers with a device. I simply love everything about this episode. Both of them are heavily massive pain in the buttocks for everyone. I was really happy with the actual episode. I couldn't even change a single thing either. Honestly, it's a great episode representing villains on the show.

Goku Black vs Reverse-Flash

Hell yeah I really love this episode!!! Two broken time theme evil doppelganger villains going at it. Goku and The Flash with some notable changes. Reverse-Flash actually has more crazier abilities from his good counterpart. Goku Black also differs in a few ways from how Goku fights as well. Considering this was added in towards an end of a season it's great!!!

Both couldn't stay dead regarding different time related factors. Let's put it this way if neither had a solid way to put the other down. This actually would've been a fight with no end. I love time travel gotten used in the actual fight. They even tie it in with another Flash episode. I got a lot of respect for Reverse-Flash from The Flash show on The CW.

I personally do not like Goku Black at all!!! In fact, when he's about to die the first time. I really lit up with such joy god I must be a horrible person lol. I also love how they differ from their hero counterparts. At the same time, this ended up being more unique and exciting. This episode does a great job with it's creativity.

DIO vs Alucard

Another personal favorite among their Halloween episodes. Two unusual manga/anime villains going at it. Alucard had a few million souls with a rather long list of abilities. DIO has two Stands with The World capable of stopping time. Vampires is one of several types among demons for those didn't know. However in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, vampires aren't demons there.

Two vastly different vampire characters. Alucard started as a villain that ended up becoming an antihero. DIO was the main antagonist of two Parts in the original JoJo universe. Parts 1 and 3 for anyone curious there you go. I really love every aspect of the entire episode. The fight song is among my favorites for an Halloween episode.

It's crazy we get a vastly different portrayal of Dracula from the Castlevania version. This was a weird yet unique vampire episode. You may never see anything like it ever again!!! I'm actually a huge fan of both these characters being more of an Alucard fan truthfully. I'm glad another vampire won on the show.

Black Adam vs Apocalypse

This was a rather huge deal for me. Back when an friend's private chat on Facebook had four people. Majority of the group sided with Black Adam. I was the odd one out choosing Apocalypse. Then Apocalypse won on their show surprised all three of them. I also previously done a few fight predictions on this match up.

I do agree this had to get done on the show. Back when there's a few possibilities left for Marvel vs DC episodes. I'm a huge fan of both these characters being more of an Apocalypse fan. I'm more of an X-Men fan in that regard it shouldn't that much of a surprise. I absolutely loved almost everything about the episode.

I personally wish they would've changed some of Apocalypse's voice overs. It was a bit trickery to understand some of the stuff he's saying. I know both has an Egyptian background. I actually meant how his voice over said some lines was a bit difficult to make out among hearing it. Other than that, the fight song is among my favorites as well.

Sauron vs Lich King

I actually predicted in a old video. Sauron was going to face Lich King from Warcraft. My other main guess was Voldemort from Harry Potter. Personally hell yeah they went with the more bad match up!!! These two are strikingly similar even with major differences. A lot of DB viewers didn't properly understand The Lord of the Rings franchise especially Sauron.

I knew Sauron was going to easily win this fight. Some could view it a bit rigged due to how Sauron gotten defeated in the canon of the stories. I like both represent the opposite environments. Sauron has this sick darker, lava possibly hellish theme. Lich King was more of the colder, ice environments. This by itself gotten me very interested.

The 3D animation alone was among my favorites to date. Sauron's 3D model was truly amazing!!! It's no secret I really love this episode with a huge passion. I do like medieval stuff to a degree see what I did there? LOL on a more serious note they nailed it perfectly. I would love more of either franchise on the show in the near future.

Frieza vs Megatron

I gotta give this one credit right out the gate. For a match up I didn't want, it quickly gotten me sold. Among first seeing the full fight animation. Some question some aspects of their research. Who truly is more powerful no longer matters because Frieza found a faster training method. Even if Megatron had the stats, Frieza wasn't far behind.

I simply love we put an powerful alien against an powerful giant robot on the show. This shouldn't work at all honestly. Somehow it works incredibly well!!! I really enjoyed the entire episode as a whole. I never considered this match up prior to it's announcement. Possibly due to not even knowing it was a thing either.

Thanks to Death Battle wiki pointing out their connections. These two were more similar than I even realized!!! I will confess I was rooting for Frieza there I said it. I don't think any version of Megatron boring either. I just knew their otaku bias was going to show up again. For such a weird mess up, it earned my respect.

Galactus vs Unicron

Now here's a rather epic match up I wanted for a long time. In fact, most of the viewers on this show as well. Two of the biggest characters they ever done!!! Both being multiversal beings with some strong similarities. Just imaging a lot of planets getting blown up gotten me excited for this. Even not having Torrian animating this 3D fight.

OMG it was truly mind blowing stuff!!! It was simply unbelievable how damn great the animation turned out to be. I absolutely loved everything about this episode. This was one of those original big requests they had for a long time to do. I had several versions of predicting this match up. My finalized prediction actually in a post I made for my YouTube account.

I ended up siding with Galactus. This was a rather complex match up at it's core. I love they really went the distance with this one. It even blew the newest version of Goku vs Superman episode away!!! Easily among my favorite season finales to date. They really done justice to both these tyrants. I personally couldn't ask for anything else.

Bowser vs Eggman

Prior to actually happening, this was one of my biggest requests to date. I know some people might get tired of Mario vs Sonic. I felt this was a rather necessary one to do on the show. Two legendary video game villains with a long list of connections. At their core, they heavily played off of magic vs science theme.

Let's be honest, this easily blew Wily vs Eggman away!!! This was both characters' second episodes. Easily they're best one on the show. There's so many crazy possibilities to consider. I loved they went for a war theme fight animation. Personally one on one could've been too short. Not to mention, it wouldn't help people understand why Bowser wins against him either.

By doing a war with their armies. You truly see how these two tyrants differ in how they do things. I confess I'm a bigger Eggman fan myself. After doing research, I quickly went for Bowser. I'll give Eggman credit he put up quite a fight indeed. This was way better than Bowser vs Ganon it's not even close!!!

Shigaraki vs Mahito (current season)

It's been a few months since they done Shigaraki vs Mahito on the show. I figured it deserved a spot in the lineup as well. I love they heavily play off don't get touch by either villain character. They had some strong similarities since Mahito was inspired by Shigaraki. We get two unique villain characters going at it.

Shigaraki showcase how he was Deku's greatest enemy. In vice versa, Mahito was lucky Shigaraki didn't kill him on the spot. I knew from my research Shigaraki going to easily win this fight. I personally do not like Mahito either. Seeing him die the fact he does actually made me quite happy. We get two vastly different written villains.

Shigaraki had a lot of tragedies in his life. Mahito was simply born out of people's inner ugliness. Shigaraki had plenty of not pleasant stuff to become an villain. Mahito was never going to be good being an pure evil cursed spirit. The fight animation was rather impressive. I simply loved everything about the episode myself.
