Quick Look: Thundercats

Snarf!

*Edit*

Since when did GB start QL'ing bad GBA games?

Hello!

Let's do this.

HOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Thunder thunder thunder!

Oh god. I've heard turrible things about this game.

Ohhhh, the Thundercats video game. For a second I thought that maybe they would quick look, well never mind what I thought.

SNARF!

They never had this cartoon on the TV channels I got growing up but I love Thunder and I love Cats. So how could I not love this?

Does it have Thundercats outtakes?

BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL!

I had no idea this game existed, 3DS purchase just went waaaay up the list.

Edit: Wait, wtf. It's a DS game? A sidescrolling 2D ds game? not sure what to think.... =(

Catch the juice?

14 seconds in and it's already magical.

This looks like something I never want to play!

By never want to play do you really mean go out and buy 3 copies?

The shit-flavored cherry on the Thundercats cancellation cake. :(

Admit it. You didn't watch it to see the Thundercats game, but for the commentary from the GB crew.

I know I did.

HHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-LD UP! DS?

I've only ever seen one episode of the new(ly cancelled) series and it seemed ok.

I thought the same. Ah well, we can dream.

It's a DS game and looks like it's based off the recent cartoon.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK RYAN DAVIS THUNDERCATS WAS AMAZING.

Thundercats ho ho ho
 
And no checkpoints?  At all?  In a game released in the 21st century?  Eegads.

"Feel the Magic, Catch the Juice" F***ing Halarious!!!

more like Thundercats Noooooooooooooo am I right?

Vinny "people find too much cynicism in games" quote of the fucking century

Are you guys sure this isn't a re-release of a terrible GBA game? Really? Really?

...Wow.

Catch the Juice: THUNDERCATS!

I don't think I had ever heard of Thundercats until Vinny showed the outtakes during the Sleepy Dogs QL.

Wait, so they liked it, right?

Ryan likes furries.

This guy does a damn good job of trying to sell a tough gig: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z5-dJ8vtLXE. Maybe you guys just need to love saying 'ThunderCats Hoooo' a bit more?

edit: added link properly

I see where Vinny is coming from with his cynicism remark, but really, when stuff like this makes it to market...also, as much as it sucks for them having to play these shitty games, I do enjoy watching them play shitty games.

We should have more reviews of bad games, just for the humor factor.

Shinobi?

From what I understand, the cartoon reboot was actually pretty good.. til it was cancelled at least.

Always like to see Ryan and Vinny doing a QL together, but then anything with Vinny in is pretty much instant gold.

I like Vinny's version of the lyrics better than the actual lyrics.

Wow.

I definitely wasn't expecting to say this, but I'm actually really impressed with his marketing.

Oh, wow, I never would have dreamed that this would've gotten a Quick Look... THUNDERCATS, HO!

I'm sure this game is 100% terrible though!!

When Ryan says "freshly rebooted" at the beginning of the video I instantly thought it was funny as the show was cancelled long before this game came out.

The "bla-bla-bla-bla" line delivery was sheer perfection. I don't know why but i just found it hilarious.

Ryan getting salty about a terrible game should be a regular feature, this shit is gold. Only thing that would make this better is if a WWE'13 video was spliced in, maybe a car could run over Lion-o....COLLUSION

I almost wanna purchase the game to support that guy

Almost

vinny's optimism for everything is infectious/adorable

I THINK "Tigra" (is that right?) does less damage than the girl cat. Either way, hoo boy, I haven't seen shitty cash-ins like this since the GBA.

Game looks whatever, but, oh man, the cartoon was really, really good. Shame that it was canceled.

So this quick look proves that if you're in the market for a 2d side-scroller based on an 80s cartoon then you should play the iOS He-Man game.

"Is this a loading screen?"

Oh Vinny...

Too bad. The new show was pretty damn awesome.
