Old Games: The Old Games Show: 07/08/2015

Oh man, this is like the third or fourth episode where Valdis III ends up second in the poll.

Jeff said it at the intro, pretty old games show (POGS) coming soon for games N64 era onward! More OGS!

I have a strong feeling that will become a long-running joke of the Old Games Show... If it's not qualified for that already.

Don't have the bottom of your shoes pointed at the camera unless they're clean.

Yiiisss

Satisfies my nostalgia craving

Some pretty decent games in this one. Moonwalker Arcade version is pretty fun and that last game looked pretty good as well.

If you don't like "Smooth Criminal," you are some kind of terrorist!

my favorite feature continues!! love brad, dan, and jeff and will watch anything with 'em, but love brad, jeff, and rorie and will watch anything with 'em even more so the slightest bit perturbed. they still seem like the perfect crew for this.

@danryckert It looks like you stepped in shit before this show.

Hey, I didn't know that Tencount got his own arcade game.

Played through the arcade version of Moonwalker for the first time with two friends a few months ago. It was pretty great.

Smell like straight doo doo on dans shoe!

Moonwalker, one of the best ever.

I came across Moonwalker last month when going though the Mame ROMs and was very pleasantly surprised. The music, sound effects and animation are spot on, plus all the weird stuff in it like how you can actually moonwalk and when you use your special to make everyone dance and then die, and when Michael does that weird scream every time.

It's been really fun browsing though tens of thousands of ROMs and finding hidden gems.

................................the things people on this site will complain about smh smh

I'd be pretty okay with Valis III ascending to mythical status. Is it a game? Will it ever be chosen on an Old Games Show? The world may never know.

"HOO!"

It's really disconcerting to see that; "Arc," Solar," and "Void," all made their first appearance in that Michael Jackson game.

We will get valis 3 one day hopefully and Valis has pretty decent music.

Annie are you ok

are you ok Annie

POGS are 22 years old at least now, so they are old enough to drink...

I really hope you people in the chat continue not voting for Valis 3. Just keep trolling them. It'll be great.

@francisah: ever wonder what the bottom of a Ryckert's shoe looks like? BAM!

Also OGS is the best feature, though Ranking of Fighters could topple it if it becomes a regular weekly thing.

I agree with Jeff the Genesis version of Moonwalker is better than the arcade version

Dan's shoes are a total work.

Another gem from Dan. "is the rainforest still a thing"

Today Moonwalker and last week TenCount, we need a third random Micheal Jackson thing on a show next week

Vectorman. Now that's a got damb video game. Not this garbage.

I do not know which came Awesome Possum or Sonic Spinball but the sounds when anything explodes in this game is the same exact sound effects in sonic spinball.

For the record, P.Y.T. was the best Michael Jackson song ever.

No Zelda 2? I just bought that game on Virtual Console thinking they'd play it on this. That game is something else, was hoping to see and hear them playing it.

@mwmorph: Thank you! I came to post precisely this. I was about 11 when POGS got hot, and yeah that was at least 21 plus years ago.

This game looks like a shittier version of Bubsy in general gameplay.

A. SHITTIER. VERSION. OF. BUBSY. That's like taking a dump, setting it on fire, and shoving it back up your ass.

That first game literally made my head hurt. Is this what motion sickness is? It would be a nightmare to feel like I was looking at that game every time I tried to read in the back seat of a car.

Wow...Moonwalker wasn't half bad.

Around the 35 minute mark, does anyone else hear a really loud beep? I thought my smoke alarm was going off.

Buncha weird audio issues with site videos lately. This video feels incredibly low in volume.

They're old enough to go to war...and die for their country...

"Smooth Criminal" is great, but "Billie Jean" is the best.

Also gotta give props to "Ben" just for being such a completely insane thing that got a ton of people to sing along to an ode to a telepathic killer pet rat.

This continues to be such a great feature. Fuck new video games.

Did Dan step on shit before he came into the studio? NASTY DAN... NASTY!!!

Why the F would you play the Genesis/MegaDrive version of BTvDD?

I thought I'd played Moonwalker but I don't remember this at all.

e: oh yeah, arcade version

Hellevator.

Eh, a Simpsons episode in 1995 had Pogs in it. They were around since the early 90s. I'd say they're more or less as old as Moonwalker. Old enough to drink for sure, even going by your weird American laws.

These are always a blast to watch.

Thanks guys.

Anyone else notice how many penis metaphors there are in the Michael Jackson game?
