Random PC Game: Phantasmagoria: Part 02

Best moment in Giant Bomb's history since Celebrity Poker. That was amazing.

Y'know what's truly amazing about this aside from the rape?...which also made me laugh in a way i haven't in a while. It totally has Daggerfall skeleton noises (Including other ES noises too)

It haunts Random PC Game! Shame no one noticed it.

This was amazing, it filled my ER hole (that sounds bad) it really was a test of endurance because damn i was fed up by the end, and then the credits happened.

This was fantastic.

hahaha "let me go"

This was amazing. Golden. I fucking love Giant Bomb.

Amazing.

You have expired.

- "like milk ?"

51 mins in and I'm trying to eat, ugh...

Watching this in the middle of the night while drinking some beer? Hell yeah.

Amazing RPCG! :) Too bad there is only one ending...

Oh man, my music teacher in high school was Mark Seibert who also did the music for this and King's Quest...I need to show this to him immediately.

I didn't see the beginning of the rape scene, clearer now, It started off consensual but then he went all- I'm going to rip out your IUD with my big screw driver. The acting wasn't bad enough to make me feel real comfortable. And neither looked like they enjoyed it..

Cyrus leave the cat ALONE.

Don reminds me of Leo from Twin Peaks

"This music is worth it", such an awesome ending.

this is one of the best vids this year i think it would be sweet if they completed more games for random PC game

That was really great, only wish I had caught it live, especially those "expirations".

That chorus is amazing.

You get the good ending by never checking behind the fireplace at the beginning. You can just walk around your sweet new mansion fixing your hair while Don repairs the sink for all eternity.

These are so amazing. Totally worth the membership, and I hope Dave and Vinny continue with the arguably better named sequel Phantasmagoria: A Puzzle of Flesh.

Woo! :D

I'm not going to lie, watching Dave just sit there and do nothing instead of just clicking on anything, hovering his mouse over stuff was pretty frustrating.

the credits are amazing

This has to be one of the best videos I have ever seen on Giantbomb!

It's a shame they missed some of the more hidden scenes.

Oh well, this was still an amazing video. This alone makes my subscription worth it.

I'm voting for this as Best Premium Video of the Year in 2011. That better be a category in the GOTY discussions!

the wiki page says this game explores adult themes and gore. Kinda makes you think how innocent the 90s were, don't it. I mean, if this passed for adult themes...

wha?? there's a rape scene, I may be forgetting but I can't remember the last time children's entertainment dealt with demon posessed rape.

This has to be my favorite feature on the site. Keep up the awesome videos, guys.

@vinny @snide Regarding the mirrors in the game: 

This was the best Giant Bomb video of 2011.

rape shrape.

I remember when FMV games were thought to be the future of gaming. Those were more innocent times (except for awkward rape scenes and gorey deaths, that is).

Fantastic stuff, can't wait to see the next "Random PC game".

So is coffee maker the new oat meal smoother?

Well this was great.

1000x better then the current endurance run going on. Good stuff

This video adventure definitely has some weird food fetish stuff in it. Most chapters end with making dinner, almost all the Zanzibar murders are stuffing faces with "food". Like the main character is all playing this out in her mind as a denial reaction to her having a pronounced eating disorder.

I love that this game was apparently quite popular and well-received upon its release. Just shows how the gimmick of including real people in your ultra-easy poorly written adventure game was enough to turn heads back in '95. Ironically, videogames.com, later known as Video Game Spot, and then Gamespot, gave it a 6.0.

You guys should play the X Files game.

I'm pretty sure it has been mentioned, but you guys need to play some night trap. Best fmv game ever.

am I alone in thinking the guy with the torch looks remarkably like Ron Swanson from "Parks and Rec"?

I fucking lost it during that "rape" scene.

This is the best GB Endurance Run this year. :P

Sadly yes. But this was amazing enough for 50 episodes worth of ER.

@Prodstep: I did too lmfao

Yeah man he just SUCKS omg! How could he not want to play this awesome game correctly! Seriously?

There's sucking and then there's intentionally ignoring the type of logic that the genre pounds into your head. Only the first one is excusable.
