hey everyone Arthur here with the second part of the 360 sale and this time they added a whole lot of major Blockbusters as well as a bunch of hidden gems too from several Publishers this is much bigger than the first batch so there's a lot to talk about here I am also doing a deep thorough coverage of everything the 360 has to offer before the marketplace is shut down in the end of July if you're watching this after the marketplace closed I will be changing the title and thumbnail of the video because this is definitely a proper coverage of what the 3 60 has to offer and not only of the sale itself so if you're new here check out the whole series for hundreds of games worth considering the next video is almost ready as well it will be on region free 360 games and that one is shaping up very cool very stoked about that will be coming shortly after this so stay tuned subscribe so you don't miss it help me out on patreon so I can keep making these let's get to the 94 games buckle up it will be a crazy ride there's no time to waste welcome to the channel this is from the void [Music] [Music] starting with Devil May Cry 4 [Music] this game is great you get exactly what you expect lots of hacking and slashing with insanely over-the-top enemies from hell and heaven to slash through it's been a while since I've played this but the game is great and I've said now there is a HD remaster special edition that adds Japanese voice over remastered visuals of course additional costumes and no less than three new playable characters in Virgil Trish and Lady which is beyond meaningful so most will prefer that version however hardcore fans of Dev M cry found a whole bunch of problems with the remaster in a gameplay performance sense like moves not working as intended a lot of problems with hitbox detection especially when frame rate dips some minor problems with textures and a lot more but most people won't even notice any of that this is apparently only for high level players really into the game so your pick here do you want the added features or the gameplay intact or both you [Music] [Music] decide then DMC HD Collection includes all three first games in the series note that one and especially two are very rough they have not aged very well but the HD remaster is seen as better versions of them even if far from perfect for either that will make Cry 3 is a fan favorite and I agree I haven't played in quite a while though but in this case the switch re-release is the best one apparently adding a very welcome ability to switch styles on the Fly and a co-op option where the second player uses Virgil for the buy Palace then finally DmC Devil MC cry which is the reboot with short hair Dante that was hated and criticized even before the game came out because of the changes to the main character which I agree to the view that the character didn't need a makeover but regard regardless of that the game is freaking great the true problem here is that the definitive edition is the best version available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox one so I would favor that one instead of [Music] this next is the best connect game ever or at least on the top three for sure and I will do a connect list soon by the way I'm all geared up and ready for that so stay Ted tuned I'll put a link in the corner if the video is already up when you're watching this but this is a major highlight among them it's digital only 360 exclusive so it needs to be talked about as much as possible this is lead [Music] Mees what a great and Incredibly fun game this is the kind of game we needed more of for motion controls Lead Me is a Mario versus Donkey Kong like you got a guide the lead me to the exit while grabbing Collectibles and avoiding hazard the catch is that instead of manipulating the environment like Mario vers Donkey Kong you are the environment it's awesome very clever use of the connect you use your limbs as platforms can form little walls with your elbows so that the little guys can turn around will need to crouch and hold your arms up for a long time so this is quite the exercise too and there are other clever details like if you extend your hand close to the lead me they will jump and grab it for a little while then climb up your arm it's super cool this is a 10 out of 10 game for me very creative and it does perfectly what it sets out to do so yeah lead me man this is a must get if you have or plan on having the connect and I finally get to talk about Bullet [Music] Storm hell yeah Bullet Storm you like awesomeness you like shooting you like boots in the enemy's ugly face then it's lowo so you can shoot their ugly face in midair but what about the far away behind cover ugly faces I can't kick those you might say well then pull them in with your leash why don't you and into bladed fences why not or electrified things or into the void and so many other insanely action things you can do in this game this is a spectacle capital S I mean just look at this sequence here with a skyscraper PR size out of control tire and you can't seem to escape its rolling path of Destruction it's so awesome it's breathtaking and by the way there is a remastered version of this called Full Clip Edition which includes Duke Nukem which is hella tempting but the awesome Graphics found here are actually downgraded there I'll leave a link to the comparison video in the comments I mean to me it's way better on the seventh generation that happens a lot actually they remastered stuff from the 7 to 8 Generations but they end up looking worse but anyway you decide do play Bullet Storm a total blast of a game and now a very important title I've been meaning to feature for a while dark stalker's [Music] Resurrection this is a mini compilation of two games night Warrior darkstalkers Revenge which is the second game in the series and its sequel dark stalkers 3 these two games have been made available in only a few platforms three is on the PSP and Sega Saturn for instance but this compilation to my knowledge is the only one with the HD remastered visuals as well as all content from other versions and several extra things like challenges and concept art and stuff for both games the games themselves are awesome three in particular is my favorite dark stalkers I've played so far Resurrection was very very well received and it's only found in the seventh generation of consoles the more recent Capcom collection contains all darkart stalkers games but they're all parts of the arcade Originals which is great in its own right but this is different and definitely holds its value so the discount is very welcome and makes this a must grab for fighting game fans in my [Music] opinion following up with a great shootter up from Capcom and hey if you like shootter up subscribe to the channel now so you don't miss the next upload which will be on Region 3 games featuring a whole bunch of awesome shoot UPS on the 360 in the meanwhile let's take a look at 1942 Joint Strike this is a pretty awesome shoot them up man it has a more old school approach with the normal style of accumulating powerups that keep making your shots better as long as you don't die there are missiles and bombs too and what's remarkable here is the level design each stage is very well made as it keeps ramping up the difficulty and in the end there may be even sequences where you lose the ability to shoot and have to avoid the incoming enemies and the boss chasing you down it's pretty cool so yeah if you like shoot them UPS this is more than solid great game 1942 Joint Strike this one has a physical though it's one of the eight games in the Capcom Digital [Music] [Applause] [Music] Collection next is the Street Fighter section several important games here with limited availability beginning with one of the most important titles in the series to talk about Street Fighter 3 third strike online edition what strike okay Street Fighter 3 is one of the least known in the series excluding the original because as far as home consoles go both Street Fighter 3 and its first update called second and P were only released on the Dreamcast more consoles like the PlayStation 2 and OG Xbox eventually saw the release of the second update third strike but it only happened like 7 years after the original Street Fighter 3 came out in arcades so many people missed on this entry and its updates more recently another version was released for switch PlayStation 4 Xbox One and PCs inside the 30th Anniversary Collection but that one is very different from this online edition which is stuck in the Seventh Generation as of now online edition is largely seen as the best out of the official versions of the game right now as it counts with a completely new artwork which looks great improved sound and the most amount of modes compared to all other versions including the 30th Anniversary one which is more like a part of the arcade which is cool in its own right of course but if you're looking for the best official version of third strike online edition most will agree currently still holds that title and like I said it's stuck in the Seventh Generation only on the 360 and Playstation [Music] 3 Street Fighter 2 has no less than eight different iterations or much more if you consider the sub versions of each version and they keep releasing more of them by the way to this day but two of those versions are on the 360 and in this price reduction Bonanza one of the best among all these versions is Super Street Fighter 2 turbo HD Edition until recently when Ultra Street Fighter 2 the final Challengers was released HD Edition was the most complete version of the game with the roster of Turbo fully redrawn Sprites and portraits as well as the option to use the pixel Sprites as well HD treatment new modes an improved training mode multiplayer online andr for a big fan of Street Fighter 2 this is a great entry to have it is also found in physical Farm however in the Capcom Digital Collection then the other version of Street Fighter 2 here is Street Fighter 2 turbo hyper fighting this is the entry that allows you to ramp up the speed to Crazy levels it also includes new color paletts for the characters a rework balance between them and more difficult to perform special moves this is somewhat less important because it's a straight Port that was also included in more recent collections such such as the 30th [Music] Anniversary up next is Street Fighter versus steken despite the negativity this game got at launch the reviews are very positive this is a great game but there are two important things to mention first there are loads of DLCs here including one for 12 edit characters which will set you back 20 bucks and the remaining DLCs are a bunch of costumes however the Xbox 360 version does not offer five extra characters that are exclusive to the PlayStation versions meaning PlayStation 3 and VA those are the guy from inFAMOUS two Sony mascots Pacman and the hilarious bad cover Mega Man which is a total must have for me and Street Fighter versus second is not backwards compatible and given that the steam version is absolutely broken do not get the steam version so if the 360 is your only option by all means take advantage of this sale but if you can opt for the Playstation 3 or VA those are [Applause] better following up with a harshly underrated game that I covered in my last video Remember Me this is freaking great and how the critics killed it is so unfair this is among the best AAA games of the generation with real high production value you would never guess by reading the reviews remember me is rather cinematic depicting a formidable dystopian future very interesting Graphics are impressive voiceover is Great Character models are cool story is exciting and intriguing the sequences where you have to rewind a memory and find glitches capable of being hacked are a great change of pace and the combat is pretty cool too similar to Batman Arkham games all about keeping up a combo while reading the actions of the enemies and reacting accordingly which is very cool because fights get really crowded I can't see much to complain about this game and I hate how many reviewers use the predictable and unfair pun of calling this forgettable it is most certainly not and with the awesome 90% discount this is a steal a must get right here next is a Hidden Gem for sure from a very well-known franchise Space Invaders Infinity Gene this was very well received and I agree if you like shoot them UPS this is up there with the best of them it may not look like it I realize and the sound effects are a bit irritating so I'd suggest tuning those down a bit the music is insane I like it but it can be overwhelming too because this game is intense in every single way I like the different weapons and the varied stages and enemy patterns it's good to see how much they can make in a game if the visual uals are kept super simple needless to say infinity Gene gets pretty hard but remains fun and engaging throughout excellent game here and the discount is great moving on to a game that surprised me because it's much better than what reviewers made it seem [Music] Strider this is the 2014 reboot that actually turns the game into a Metroid Vania I did not know that the viewer is calling this a platformer out there jeez totally a Metroid Vania and a great one because it combines the Exploration with the signature agility of The Strider series which results in an awesome mix you keep learning new moves that can many times be used both for the Metroid Vania exploration and for combat some of the things you learn here make the game quite enjoyable this counts with surprising amount of production it also looks and sounds great this is absolutely solid a a .5 in my opinion no less so with the discount this is an easy pick for [Music] sure moving on to half action half puzzle and another half unexpected violence for a total of 150% cool Hidden Gem right here this is warp you control this alien guy here who is being experimented on by creepy scientist guys but he gets his alien stuff back and now it's Revenge time bloody Revenge Revenge dude this alien guy looks in assuming but is a ruthless killing machine he can teleport through walls and also inside objects of about the same mass as his which is the main cool idea of the game and this allows you to move completely undetected but when you run out of cylinders to warp into you can just as easily teleport into the scientists and mess them up until they freaking explode from the inside out really gruesome of course there's a lot more but suffice it to say this is a really interesting game finding your way around especially while grabbing all the Collectibles is challenging and enjoyable and for mere 99 Cents this is a must grab in my opinion next is a freaking excellent series with three games that unfortunately never really stuck I guess Capcom has pretty much given up at this point after so many attempts which is a shame because these are great we're talking about Bionic Commando all three entries in the series were included in the discounts which is awesome cuz they're all excellent first let's talk briefly about the two reboots that are more faithful to the original 2D action Platformers called Bionic Commando rearmed one and two they are both very competent in keeping the high Challenge and the movement limitations of The Originals these are Platformers where you can't jump for Pat sake but they compensate with all the Fantastic things that the bionic arm is capable of doing getting good at using it though is what's challenging about these games especially because boss fights are real hard but they are great if you get into them very worth having on the 360 especially now with the crazy 90% discount they're getting rearmed one is digital only but rearm 2 is found physically for the 360 only in the Capcom Digital Collection along with seven other games and they also tried putting the series in 3D for the first time with a sort of reboot simply called Bionic Commando this is pretty cool I like it a lot it's a early game in the generation the combat feels a little loose could be a bit tighter there are also some gameplay design ideas that were gradually rejected during this generation like more scarce checkpoints that could lead to you replaying long sections but the issues are minor this is definitely a fun game the uses of the bionic arm are actually pretty impressive both for traversal and for combat you can attach it to poles and rails to fling yourself like Spider-Man the targeting system takes a minute to understand so you can expect failing a little bit in the very first stage but soon enough you will understand it and it works pretty well you can also attach it to enemies and launch yourself into them for a pretty awesome move this coupled with several other things you can do including using Firearms makes the combat rather Dynamic and enjoyable different enemies force you to make use of all your abilities this is a very solid and enjoyable game here check it out very much worth the $49 discounted price [Music] then one of my favorites on the list is burnout [Music] crash this game man what a cool and unique concept I already covered it once but I'm happy to feature it again cuz this is so much fun it's all about crashing your car with other cars in intersections believe it or not and Incredibly it manages to create a deeply and engaging game play with just that after the crash you immediately lose your ability to drive but your vehicle is equipped with freaking explosives naturally so you can choose the moment when to set them off ideally when you can cause the most amount of damage and impede other vehicles of escaping the intersection of hell you're creating as you explode your car is launched into the air then you regain control of it so you can fall into even more vehicles and after enough damage it's caused you get special feature events to happen like airplane landings and freaking tornadoes it's awesome this was already cheap for $4.99 and now it's an absolute must grab for mere 49 c49 cents I mean come on it's a bubble gum next is another one in the series Burnout 3 takedown before anything this as of the recording of this video is not showing up with a discount XBox is aware of this they had all all eight or nine games with this problem listed in the announcement and they fixed pretty much every single one of them but it has only been a few days since the discounts went live so they may still fix this in any case the game is great one of the best racing games of its generation the sixth generation this is a part of the OG Xbox entry and it holds up according to everyone I will play this I'm just waiting for the discount to take effect cuz I've spent too much money already buying most of these at full price and I am not rich I need help so subscribe join the patreon please [Music] thanks next is a brilliant and rather obscure action platformer called dust Force this is all about sweeping floors walls and ceilings to remove debris and dust during platforming movement which is very odd and very tricky to pull off but very cool if you do the stages are incredibly well crafted the music is a major highlight but it's copyrighted so I can't use it and the things you can pull off are awesome providing some deeply satisfying fluidity to the game d force is a great game from Capcom that few know about a unique take on platforming very much worth picking up especially with the crazy 90% discount reducing it to less than a dollar and this has no forwards compatibility easy pick right [Music] here next is adrenaline Misfits this is a connect game 100% I will be covering all the best connect games in a later video by the way so stay tuned but this one is a mixed bag I'm not 100% sure of it at this point I need to play more of it with different lighting and move the couch maybe cuz the thing struggles to get my moves it doesn't turn gray to the left and then suddenly does more than I wanted I do like the visuals though as well as the character's designs and if there is a way to make it work properly I'd say this is a great game but the way it fails to get my motion so far I can't really recommend it it's more frustrating than fun but stay tuned to the connect video coming soon when I'll have tried this [Music] more next is Mortal Kombat arcade collection with a K this is the compilation of arcade parts of MK1 two and Ultimate MK3 I refuse to explain what they're about now there are not too many modern time versions of these three games so these may be interesting on the other hand this collection does little to nothing to improve these three games and I hear the online mode they added is buggy so this is more for a Mortal Kombat fan that doesn't have the old school options for these the discount is not the best either it's actually the worst discount of all games on the list which is lame [Music] next is one of the two very underrated games on this series 99 nights [Music] too like I said last time I covered this both 9 nights were panned by Western critics but praised by Japanese ones and when that happens I almost always agree with the Japanese critics especially the ones from famitsu who always places four people review in each of the games critics in this side of the world complain that the game has no depth but that's totally not true the boss fights will require a lot of involvement from the player and I also really like the small campaign structure for each character plus the production value is real high with some awesome CG cutcenes and cool character designs fans of muso games should really considered both N3 games but the original was never released digitally I got this wrong last time I thought it was Dlisted but at least the sequel is found digitally and benefits a lot from the discount reducing it by over 20 bucks cuz this was kind of [Music] overpriced the next few are very famous but there is a reason to talk about these 360 versions these are the Batman Arkham games Arkham Asylum City and Origins are all excellent needless to say my favorite is the original with a more confined sandbox style that makes the whole experience is even more interesting to me though I also like the flying around open World style that the series took on Sin City no need for much explanations about these right combat is fantastic all about keeping a flow of hits managing the crowds of enemies reading their behaviors then exploration is awesome the detective mode is great I mean these games are excellent including Origins which may not be at the same level of the other ones but it's still pretty great and that one is not found in more recent collections they released your only options for that that are the PlayStation 3 Xbox 360 Wii U and PCs then Batman Arkham Origins Black gate is the companion game to Origins but now in a sid scroller style this one didn't get a great reception though and I haven't played it yet critics did not like the transition to 2D which they say feels sloppy with repetitive level design and not adding anything to the series in meaningful ways finally the original and City are available on more modern consoles but the visuals take a serious beating in the quote unquote remasters pretty much everyone agrees that the Seventh Generation versions look much better however all these have physical versions without all dlc's in the disc so that could be a better option then this next one is not excellent but still a fun time air conflicts Secret Wars this is a third person aerial shooter divided into stages with missions to tackle including stealth ones which makes you fly close to the ground which is tricky and cool I also really like the shooting here cuz there is a marker for where you need to shoot to compensate the enemy's movement and yours presentation is definitely lacking though Cuts scenes with a single picture and long conversations are a bit of a drag especially in the beginning but as the story unfolds it gets better but the game is definitely fun with varied missions and combat just not anything Stellar next is one of my favorite firstperson Shooters of all time black I play this one on the PlayStation 2 back in the day and what a phenomenal ride it was this game is not kidding around it offers one of the best shooting actions and it's hard to explain why it's a whole combination of things level design certainly plays a big role but so does the raw feeling that comes from shooting stuff the damage your bullets and explosions caus in the environment how you can make use of that to your advantage this is insanely wellmade so this is probably the easiest recommendation for freaking 99 Cents go right ahead black is a fantastic game [Music] next is a pretty obscure game from Bethesda called Brink this is a first-person shooter with a rather interesting setting as the sea levels rised people built a floating city called The Ark and now it's been overrun with climate refugees and it's out of control so a civil war has ensued the game counts with a pretty deep customization and progression system and is also very focused on the multiplayer aspect in fact even the the campaign mode feels like multiplayer it can be played with other people too with all stages revolving around typical online gameplay types like hold the fort escort the VIP capture the flag and many variations of those things it's definitely cool if you're into those and the progression is solid I mean people were not super hot about it but it's far from a bad [Music] game this next one is complicated alien Spidey okay this is Relentless however friendly it looks and simple the platforming may seem the game completely shatters all that by being really demanding with the Precision your Spider Guy can shoot webs to swing from side a to side B but the game wants you to be very precise about that and since you have to do it while falling and with only one chance to do it right most of the time you will fail a lot that's by Design though cuz it's going for the speed run side of gaming and respawns are generous so it's not a bad thing necessarily but right there it already removes casual platformer fans from the target audience which is okay but it's much more hardcore than that alien Spidey requires you to collect a big amount of medals before it allows you to reach the final stage in the world so that you can move to the next world problem is that it's the hardest thing ever to get two medals in a level let alone three four and five which are simply barline impossible so this game sets a ridiculously high learning curve for the player to the point where it's too much for most of us you have to be super into hardcore precision platforming and speedruns to enjoy this if you do alien Spidey is a total blast cuz you have the tools to do the things here you only need to train a lot to become an absolute Master at using them so it's not a bad game but do not attempt if you're not that very specific player [Music] moving on to choplifter HD this is odd but kind of cool you ride a helicopter and have to rescue War victims which is an unusual gameplay idea for sure you have to be extra careful about Landing hitting stuff and getting shot while carrying rescue Weis because they may die you can turn the helicopter facing the camera in order to shoot down enemies positioned that way which is an interesting addition for sure fuel is also a concern there will be a couple of spots where you can refill so yeah cool Hidden Gem here and this was delisted from Steam so right now only the seventh generation of consoles offers [Music] it the next we have Dead Island and Dead Island Rip Tide dude remember Dead Island's first announcement trailer with the girl and the Reversed zombie outbreak scenes that was sick and one of the most emotional trailers ever but anyway Dead Island and its Standalone DLC are pretty awesome these are first person open world action RPGs with zombies and an emphasis on melee weapons rather than Firearms so they stand apart for sure you progress by leveling up and doing quests cool games but they have been bundled together in definitive editions for newer systems which are seen as better options for most though the graphical comparison is a matter of taste the definitive edition has surfaces and textures looking more natural but the original looks more beautiful with better colors in my opinion but it's definitely a matter of taste you'll be the [Music] judge moving on to the Dead Rising series those are also zombie genocide types of games but now in third person and with wackier and over the- topper weapons to use to do the zombies Laing with it's been a while since I've played any of these and my memory may be faulty about them but I remember having good fun with one and two that Rising One's best version is either this one or the Xbox One and series people seem to be conflicted about it which tells me that they are both great so this is a safe grab then that Rising 2 is more complicated first of all it has a redcon reimagined version also on sale called off the Record that replaces the protagonist with Frank West from the original so the photography system from that game makes a comeback here it's considered by most fans a different game but the plot is the same only from a different perspective and the gameplay sequences are also copy pasted for the most part so most people will want to choose one or the other to make matters more confusing off the road has worse scores than two because reviewers didn't find enough additions to the game to justify players of two to come back for off the Record but if you ask people who played both of them the majority seems to agree that off the Record is the one to go with if you only want to play one of them all three games were re-released on one and series and Playstation 4 but many people say that they all have performance issues so I think the 360 versions are better and those are not backwards compatible so you may want to grab them with a [Applause] discount next on the list is Darkstar one broken Alliance this game is impressive your spaceship is capable of upgrading itself when you find the right parts which leads to a very engaging progression cuz everything changes for the better as you go on the combat here is actually great you can easily pick up speed and especially slow down drastically which enables you to regain the sights on your enemy quickly and in an organic and believable way too this is further enhanced by a clever targeting system there is a lot of freedom to do whatever you want with a whole lot of different missions Darkstar one is definitely one to consider especially with the 80% discount and physicals I believe have been getting price here moving on to [Music] microbot this one you control a tiny machine injected into the bloodstream of a host to help getting rid of infections and such it's a twin6 shooter where your machine has three appendages that you can equip with different weapons and proportion parts as well as upgrade them and later the number of appendages increases making it a whole lot better the combinations are varied and pretty interesting with homing missiles machine guns darkart weapons and a lot more the enemies posed quite a threat especially when in big numbers and exploring feels great solid game right here rather underrated too and now for less than a buck this is an easy pick in my opinion [Music] next for a nice change of pace is omera City of Gangsters this is odd it's half a strategy game half a city Tycoon simulation kind of deal I don't like the Tycoon side of it I find it rather boring lots of waiting around for your units to complete the tasks like negotiating raiding breweries gathering information and such there is not a lot of depth in terms of the Strategic side of it it's not bad but also not great the combat side is much better you have special moves for each character pistols and melee weapons environments with obstacles you can shoot through and a lot more so the strategy aspect of the combat feels very nice the gangster World they create here is also pretty well [Music] made next is the amusing death spank this is one of the most hilarious and thoroughly enjoyable action Adventures full of real funny lines between death spank and NPCs where you can actually choose the funniest one which is a blast because the voice over is great here the action is also solid you can equip up to four weapons at the same time melee or ranged this is all about getting random Loot and the graphics are pretty unique with the world rolling over like that I love it there's also a sequel on the 360 but at least for now the only one getting a discount is the original by the way there is a third game in the series that I did not know about until friend of the channel Dominic who has his own channel which is very cool by the way I'll leave a link in the description point it this out for [Music] me next Resident Evil the HD remaster of the original Resident Evil 0 4 5 6 and Revelations are all getting a whopping 90% discount these are super well known so I'll be extra quick HD remaster is grillin okay it's a must playay what a formidable game this version of zero is also the remaster with HD graphics a great way to play this game too Resident Evil 4 though is not the HD remaster version still a brilliant game so not a bad choice if you want to play it on the 360 but I think most people agree that the HD remasters on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are better than Resident Evil 5 has a Gold version physically for the Xbox 360 with the DLCs in the disc as well as in newer systems with remastered Graphics I hear the PC Gold Edition of five is even better then six is kind of the black sheep but not as bad as many people may think there are versions with all the DLCs on newer systems to consider though then Revelations is a pretty cool different take with several main characters in an episodic structure this one though has a lot of versions with significant differences including the original which is only on the 3DS they vary a lot between each other to the point where no one seems to agree which is a clear winner so another one you can safely pick here in my [Music] opinion this next one is a nice little throwback but only for a select part of the audience y Kung Fu no idea if I'm pronouncing that right probably not y was an arcade game from Konami it also made it to the famicom ZX Spectrum Commodore 64 and it's archaic let's put it like that few will jam with this game I believe this is a fighter but very old school predates any Street Fighter or anything else pretty much and it shows it's all about being careful very careful and finding the best way to hit the enemy without getting hit the rules that dictate who hits whom is what's odd about this cuz it never becomes apparent why your kick didn't hit but theirs did very rudimentary stuff here but kind of fun if you can handle real old school games like this there is definitely a addictive quality here just good luck getting past the club with Shield guy this version has different Graphics or the original Graphics to choose but frankly it doesn't matter much they both look bad the discount is also not the best 99 Cents would feel much [Music] better next is birds of steel this is a great aial shooter with heart pumping action a long campaign and great presentation I already covered it once so I'll be brief here and I'll just mention that it also comes with some very meaningful DLCs with new campaigns but those are expensive for almost 27 bucks in total check my dlc's video for more info on this DLCs unfortunately are not getting discounts at least not yet and Birds of Steel is a Seventh Generation only game found on Xbox 360s and Playstation 3 and that's it but it does have physical versions [Music] next is The Evil Within Great Horror Survival game with nice spacing that goes from tense to horrific and some great combat designed to boot if you're a fan of horror games you will likely enjoy this one note however that this counts with a lot of DLCs and they're pretty meaningful and expensive the game's full price is crazy expensive too but it got a 95% discount dropping it by no less than $57 but if you're also grabbing the DLCs you're still paying a good amount so note that this game has physical options without the [Music] dlc's next is an underrated game I'd even call it a hidden Jam more hidden than Jam but still and it's a 3D platformer which is a rare kind in this generation we're talking about spare parts reviews of this game are very very low below fives mostly and I disagree this may not be anything spectacular but it's a fun little 3D platformer with a bit of action and puzzle on the side criticisms of the game are as follows budget presentation dude what barring combat yeah kind of it's not the game strong suit for sure then sloppy platforming and bad controls I disagree there this is as sloppy and with bad controls as PlayStation 1 crash bandicoots okay it's the fixed camera that's the issue that's by design it introduces on purpose the difficult ulty of 3D placement without being able to rotate the camera if you don't like that kind of thing that's totally fine so this game is not for you but it's not sloppy in my view then on the plus side this has a bunch of cool moves to learn things to find and unlock as you do you have reason to come back to previous stages and explore some more I really like the small sandbox stage size here too I mean sure the game is nothing to write home about but if you're into collectathon 3D Puzzle Platformers this is definitely worth the 99 cents is going for now this is Anna extended edition this is a horror puzzle game in first person it comes with some great atmosphere that actually succeeds in making it scary The Narrative starts off very unassuming but picks up a whole lot and it even counts with multiple Landings the point and click nature doesn't migrate perfectly to the Xbox 360 and you will need to adjust the sensitivity of the analog stick also the item using system is not the best but these are minor problems there is definitely a worthwhile game here if you're a horror and puzzle fan the steam version of this game is currently very problematic with a intrusive launcher that forces you to watch advertisement so the 360 is the better option now that it's on sale next is a great puzzle Hidden Gem called Voodoo dice I already spoke about this one very recently the puzzles are excellent here all about moving as a dice that rolls around and figuring out ways to match your top side number with the number on block block impeding your progress or two other ones so you can combine with them then get rid of them in the correct places it's a whole thing it's pretty cool nothing glamorous but a fine puzzle game for [Music] fans this next one is probably a skip dollar Dash this is almost entirely a multiplayer focused game and online would be better but I don't think there is anyone playing this right now I didn't find this all that fun I'm afraid you control a thief breaking into a bank to rack up some cash which will make you slower to run and you have to carry it all the way to the van other players will try to seal the money away from you and you do the same to them there are other modes like the safe one where players compete to see who can hold a big safe for longer many items and powerups are available to use against enemies or improve your movement and defense I mean it's not a bad game but also not too exciting I don't think maybe if you have other people to play this with you could be a fun distraction otherwise I'd skip [Music] it now we have rocket Riot the game play is fun here but the single player to me left something to be desired you fly around and shoot rockets at opponents while the entire scenario can be destroyed which they also use for some missions where you have to find some stuff before the opponents do for instance I found it a bit repetitive though with only a few Mission types but it can be fun in sh bursts and multiplayer makes it it a whole lot [Music] better and next is the unbelievable the Fancy Pants [Music] Adventures this was originally a series of browser based games that got a lot of notoriety back in the day but it has since dissipated I feel like which is a very sad thing because this is a great platformer with handmade graphics and animations and remarkable physics you can do some awesome momentum based Maneuvers here there's a a lot of fluidity so many things to find with some Collectibles posing a real platforming challenge so there is a lot of game here especially for less than a dollar easy pick here go right [Music] ahead next is a pretty disappointing game called Russian attack X Patriot I find this ugly looking repetitive in gameplay and with a poor execution of its ideas there is a stealth in Clin ation that really doesn't amount to much because the AI is completely stupid the action is a bit better especially in boss fights and exploration is the best aspect of it but it's still a very rough game I don't see too much reason to go for it I'm afraid especially since the discount could have been [Music] better following up with Frogger hyper arcade edition this is okay I guess guess but there's nothing hyper about it nothing the game play is very similar to the original even with the five or six new modes here the game playay Remains the Same just hop your way to the top place a frog in one of the slots rinse and repeat I do like a few of the new modes especially the one where you compete with the CPU or other players locally while painting the floor with your colors this mode is cool but the game as a whole is very lacking there isn't anything deep or any kind of progression and the old school Frogger gamep play is just just not fun enough to sustain it this is very hard to recommend even with the discount you got to be very into Frogger moving on to a game that has gotten ridiculously expensive for physicals recently this is Tornado Outbreak you're definitely looking at a Hidden Gem here the game is pretty well made with some surprising production value it plays similar to katamar games your tornado guy destroys and sucks up stuff to become bigger and bigger and be able to cause damage to bigger things but it goes beyond that with some pretty interesting ideas there are these fire guys hidden under objects which you must find and there's a whole gameplay mechanism around that where you can chain them together and consume all at once as soon as you start doing that though the tornado gets lower so you need to find the next one fast the bigger the chain the more you add to your timer limit so it's a whole thing to consider here pretty neat game and the discount makes it over 20 times cheaper than the physicals for the 360 which is commanding Crazy Prices recently [Music] [Applause] [Music] next is the Fast Fire section because there is just no way I could cover 94 games if I were to play all of them and I don't have the monies for all this either so I chose some of them to Simply Manion Fest beginning with the Need for Speed games first of all undercover shows up in the discount list but the game has been delisted for some time so I don't know what's up with that I don't think they will be relisting it the other two are Most Wanted and Rivals Most Wanted by the way is the 2012 game not a part of the 2005 entry they have the same name because they like messing with us I guess and both Most Wanted and Rivals were very well received with scares up to Nines Most Wanted has a Wii U version that uses the gam pad in interesting ways and Rivals is also on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One next is Fight Night rout three I'm not into boxing games almost at all so I don't have a Fed opinion about this but review seems to be very positive which is true about all Fight Night games I believe I hear this series does a different control scheme where you use the analog sticks to do the punching which feels great so fans of boxing games should consider picking this one up especially with a substantial discount Red Faction gorilla is also on sale this game also received the remaster treatment so keep that in mind this is a third person shooter with loads of Destruction and pretty cool weapons taking place in Mars I am definitely playing this soon moving on to all the Lego games there are so many I had no idea there is The Lego Movie video game Lego Batman 3 Lego Jurassic world Lego Marvel Superheroes Lego Marvel's Avengers Lego Star Wars the Force awakens Harry Potter years 1 through 4 and years 5 through 7 weird names there and these are all fun and amusing games I hear always provide a lot of action and adventuring but also adding the trademark Lego silliness resulting in very fun games then there is Harry Potter for connect a lot of effort went into this you join in the Harry Potter World with a new character the move stuff replicates the Spells and many other things but reviews are larm about it sometimes very negative this seems to be more for young children who are into the Harry Potter World tropical 3 and five are also available I never played any tropical game can't say anything about them other than that they are construction manager mement Sims that have been well received especially three Gianna sisters Twisted dream I hear is a pretty solid Mario Bros style platformer it's found almost everywhere though and the Ultimate Edition for the switch has extra levels Dishonored is another excellent game with a definitive addition in more modern consoles including the DLCs this honored reminds me of Bioshock not only because of the first person view but more so because we explore the environments and gather Loot and money and lore in a similar IL way I like this exploration aspect a lot and I don't know there aren't too many games out there that do this I feel so I really like the dishonor series the next one is the cheapest on the list and a pretty great game home front it's going for 49 cents what a bargain especially considering the quality here pretty solid firsters shooter with a very interesting premise in a war against a reunified Korea led by the dictator next we have metal gear 5 the phantom pain and its prologue round zeros most of you know this better than I I do I have yet to play five and four for that matter I am late very late there's Delta coming I know anyways there's a definitive edition of five with both titles and a bunch of extras to consider next are metros 2033 and less light these are solid firstperson Shooters with a bit of horror which is pretty cool people who play them swear by them a remastered called Redux brings both to newer consoles with remastered visuals you should look up the comparisons to decide which is better cuz they are drastically different and I like both Redux is better looking but the originals have more fog which creates a different atmosphere so you'll be the judge Skyrim is also getting a discount this is a very well-known game I will not explain it to save us all time a bunch of different versions exist for this game including anniversary edition with all the DLCs fan-made content and loads of stuff I can't list it all here a superbly well-received game that I never played is Splinter Cell Chaos Theory 9.5 across the board and this one seems to never have been brought over to more modern consoles so there has never been a better time to grab it with the very low price I see little reason to grab Shadows of Mordor on the 360 or Playstation 3 for that matter as the PlayStation 4 Xbox One versions are Superior Plants versus Zombies Garden Warfare was decently well received mixing multiplayer online gameplay with third person shooting and the tower defense routs of the series people dislike the microtransaction action Focus here apparently though Wing Commander arena is a space shooter that received very bad reviews all between threes and fours so I'm trusting those that this is not a very worthwhile game a track and field Xbox 360 part of the arcade game with added leaderboards exists I don't know why but it does puzzle Chronicles is a clone of Puzzle Quest with bad visuals but apparently pretty decent puzzle gameplay that's all I know about it rabids Invasion the interactive TV show is a connect game that is what the subtitle says an interactive show you watch the animation and do a whole bunch of simple mini games apparently it's great for kids then the infamous Mighty number nine they tragically miscalculated the amount of work necessary to pull off this project and the game ended up under delivering you already know about that the game is not all bad though someone may have fun here the problem was more about the discrepancy between promise and reality the 95% discount May justify fire purchase though dark seems to be a very bad video game about stealthing as a vampire no one seems to like this the graphics look kind of cool but the same can't be said about the gameplay apparently Cars 3 driven to win I never knew existed until now it seems to be a decent racer though there are parts of this to recent consoles like switch Just Dance Kids 2014 is another game added to the discounts joining all the other Just Dance games and that's all I'll say about that and that's it people 94 games good grief stay tuned for part five C they will add more games to the discount on July 16th and in the meantime a lot more 360 stuff I am concentrating 100% on this now the next video is almost ready and will be about region free games and it's a total blast stay tuned for that and there's a lot more coming too if this was helpful to you please do the stupid engagement things subscribes and shares and likes and comments so this can be shown to more people and be helpful to them as well to help this channel stay alive though the best way is through patreon $1 makes a huge difference for you I will eventually have to stop doing this if things don't pick up cuz I have a daughter to put through school and it's so expensive man I was doing the math here and if just 1% of you would chip in it would already be enough seriously so come on over let's keep this going so all right that's it from me thank you so much for watching and I'll see you soon [Music] [Applause] [Music]
