Just posting for proof I'm not a game hater, only the naff ones receive shitometer ratings, here's my playlists of "Let's Plays" & "Let's Longplays" of really good retro games across many formats that I think are great fun to play, all contain commentary

Tried it again (CE2), superb music / superb graphics (real AGA) but gameplay is too frustrating so I gave up. Too stressful, split screen... Magic Pockets is super underrated on the other hand. One disk full of wonderful secrets & features... once you understand how to play properly.

My theory is that they made the game just so they could afford new clothes?

Sorry Zeus, but TBH I’m also not a huge fan of the style of these videos compared with the other stuff on the channel. I do like the idea of reviewing shit games but personally I’d like see more humour or playfulness alongside the faux anger.

There’s a perverse pleasure in experiencing “bad art” but I don’t get any sense of that here. This feels more like Monday morning at a dead end job: “this is all shit, I hate it”. If you don’t sound like you enjoy making a video, I’m not sure what I’m supposed to take from it as a viewer. But if you do secretly enjoy it, I’d like a hint of that.

Not a problem matey, can't please everyone
Stick to my "let's plays" and "let's longplays" then if you want to see GOOD games, but in my defence not all the shit games I review on the SGT series have me enraged , many of them have me on the floor rolling with laughter ,...check the following suggestions for proof:

Human Killing Machine (Amiga),
Double Dragon 1 (Amiga),
Outrun (Dos),...OMG I needed surgery on my sides after playing that!
Veteran (Amiga),
Sabrina (ZX Spectrum),....now this one gave me an excellent excuse to direct a piss-take out of the hardcore feminist movement, made me feel SOOOOOOO much better

Just a side note for those who don't like SGT videos, my advice, if you don't like them then don't watch or comment,...simple, I certainly won't lose sleep, I suggest either (as they say in TV land) turn the channel over.
If that doesn't work then maybe you could either watch reruns of Last of the Summer Wine or Gilligans Island and if that don't work then,....cry me a river!

Says the guy defending someone only posting here to promote videos where he shits on coders from back in the day.

Also, what Clebin and Dreadnought said in this thread.

No problem with reviewing and criticizing old bad games, but that whole over sensational "OH WOW, LOOK, IT'S SHIT GAME TIME AND LOOK WHAT THOSE LOSERS DID" angle doesn't gel with me.
What's next then? "OLD AMIGA CODERS DON'T WANT YOU TO SEE THIS VIDEO!!!"?

If not liking that low effort clickbait makes me a "bad and non decent person", then so be it.

Do you realize you are providing the "safe space" here for the OP of this thread, since you feel the need to protect him from being criticized, or are you really as dumb as fuck as you sound?

At least not 90% of my post history is dedicated to supporting and defending threads made by that one guy.

Are you by any chance a sock puppet account?

Yes please be pleasant on the threads,...that includes mine, Just watch the vid and enjoy or find something else to watch or read on EAB and enjoy that instead, it really Isn't that difficult, there has been many things on the EAB I have not liked but I have never bothered to comment on them,...I mean what's the point in complaining?

I'm too thick skinned to be offended if someone doesn't like me or my content, I got much more bigger things to worry about in life


Just enjoy!!!

So if I criticize a thread title that I stumbled upon in today's threads category that reads "Shit Game Time: Carver (Amiga), middle fingers to the poogrammers!" I am the "negative person" here? Sure.

I feel it's completely within my rights as a regular forum poster and general contributor to the Amiga scene to point out that I am not happy about wording and content of threads, as compared to someone like you who doesn't contribute anything to this board except ten posts about "Shit Game Time" and one about something else.

If you have a smartphone and have google translate installed on it you can take a picture of the text and the app will translate it for you.

The live translation in that app sucks so that's why I recommend taking a picture instead.

No, I am just pointing out those videos and the way they are being advertised here are lame as hell.
Seems you little hypocritical ugly nerd are the one needing a safe space here if you cannot take that.

By that same logic I can create a thread here called "SHIT VIDEO REVIEW TIME. GIVING THE MIDDLE FINGER TO SHODDILY RECORDED CLICKBAIT CRAP SHITTING ON OLD GAMES NARRATED BY A RETARD" and everyone criticizing this is a negative person or "needs a safe space".

It works both ways.

Just not sure this is the kind of conversation we want here.
