Spoony Experiment - The Thing (PC) Part 2

[Meep1111]

Dang Spoony. You didn't notice the boss's glitch? It DOES have a safe spot. IMMEDIATELY NEXT TO IT WTF. If you get RIGHT UP AGAINST IT, IT CAN'T HIT YOU ._.

[dumbassmoron]

max payne? really!? max payne ripped that off from zelda ocarina of time.

[Honsokka]

"Giant dangling penis monster" im gonna try avoid those in the future

[culchiecorner]

i really actually like these videos, BUT I HIT DISLIKE BY MISTAKE

[1N73RC3P7OR]

this is epic xD i nearly died from laughing

[Trainboy1EJR]

dead space final boss is a total knock off of the final boss here. i find this hilarious.

[jd1457]

your review makes me want to play this lol i remeber watching this years ago and loved it!

[alexiaNBC]

What I hate most about this game is the fact that they try to orchestrate this as some resident evil knockoff. Oh and I lost count over 200 fuses I had to fix

[seva809]

"Game over Whitley"

[theaceofspades56]

Too bad i could never beat this game due to a glitch where i would be stuck behind boxes everytime during a boss fight :(

[niceguy122]

I love mycomputer at the beginning?awesome!

[technojustin]

i must agree he is very harsh but ridiculously hilarious

[sylvanha]

This is the most entertaining review. Ever. And it didn't try to copy Zero punctuation or GT or Gamespot styles.

[danlynn53]

The special forces had to enable a fuse box. LOL.

[KeenanDarcy]

A remake of this game would be fucking rad

[Eteezy100]

funny how you made that chinese-like noise when u died by your flamethrower at 05:52 XD

[talobon]

jjajajajajajaja awsome video men...your voice is very funny jajajajajaja

[Eteezy100]

ure 1 funny dude/commentator

[mebemichael1]

The gas was green. One word. JOKER!!!

[SirReaI]

I gotta admit, as lame as the game looks, the bosses look very, very cool. Give 'em credit for that much, even if they're ripping off stuff.

[ticknoros]

The reason the place is blowing up is because of global warming

[Blackout8080]

What a legendary game xP

[4AJWP]

dangling penis monster lol

[Fubukio]

Poison Gas + Fuse Box Leaking Sparks = No Explosion?

[skittleboy15]

@Fubukio Yeah because every poison gas MUST be explosive or even flamable. Why don't you go fill a room with Carbon Monoxide and breathe while lighting a match.

[Fubukio]

@skittleboy15 It's SO not Carbon Monoxide. It's all green.

And I wonder if they actually made poison gas yet that's not explosive nor flammable during 1982 or 1983.

[skittleboy15]

@Fubukio srs man? seems to me that they had a thing called mustard gas in WW1 that isn't flamable. The problem here is your assumption that because something is poisonous means it is explosive...which is nonsense.

[Fubukio]

@skittleboy15 It's like how we would play this game without watching this review and accepts the fact that fixing a broken and sparking fuse box with no tools and while wearing gloves seems legit.

Plus my assumption of the poison gas being explosive is a cliche thing. I clearly doubt it's any real poison gas anyway and it's just a generic one that's made for that moment. It could be a non-explosive one or it could be an explosive one that conveniently didn't explode at that moment.

[AwesomenessByron]

lmao classic

[woo1693]

I can't take you doing that THING you do!

[racer927]

1:00 you mean't to say movie right?

[killernarwhal117]

Times up,MAX PAYNE

[Crucialpantydroppa]

this was one of the first ps2 games......and at the time, it was pretty good. this dood is too harsh.

[Fubukio]

Game Over Whitley. I've defeated your Miltank.

[drdresapinkbunny]

"Jesus who build this bomb, the Joker?" (Priceless)

[1squeamishneophyte]

its funny that spoony would mention this game's other conceptual and narrative plagiarisms of half-life concerning the headcrabs and hostile black ops soldiers but never called attention to the fact that the whole 'tac nuke in a in a secret base's warehouse that the player must defuse' is itself another blatant rip off of half-life opposing force. thats the one that irked me the most actually because it stole from the source material almost directly. guess he never played opfor.

[twilightwindwaker]

Maybe some gasoline dried up on the floor and a spark set it off. The thing scared you to death. Maybe the final boss's body sucks stuff inward like the flames.

[DictionaryDylan]

You sir, are a God.

[hauk93]

No bullshit man, Norway can build ANYTHING! :D

[chromeblack]

That you, Laszlow Jones?

[meatmanvstaco]

You said it. That game was fucking garbage.

[Themastercode1235]

The ending so like Gears 2!

[dustychildress96]

Jerry Seinfield :D

[vanRijn64]

LOL!

[THEEND123321]

bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla  your the thing!

[Br3athinSu1fur]

Dangling Penis monster....... i almost died laughing

[wrightylee1982]

i liked this game, i think spoony may be a bit harsh considering it is a game and not the film, but there are some fuckin annoying things!

[holysoks1]

I love this game ;D

Funny review still :)

[UchuuKeijiRaidanjin]

Watch the headhumpers Spoony!

[jdzero]

Did you get that THING I sent ya?

[Lighningbreaker]

Thank you for your hard work on going through this game. I was about to get it, but this saved me the trouble.

[daizhaun239]

lol this is were dead space came from erly dead space u shood call it thumbs up give me thim or or ill ill eat u and become u >:3

[weirdvideoscentral]

@daizhaun239 not where dead space came from it came from a movie called event horizon google it its a good movie.

[NathanSaga]

Lol you gonna love this, so theres going to be another Thing movie or a prequil with the Nor. outpost and the beginning when the alien was uncoverd. I dont know how good it will be, like the first movie had animatronics and alot of movie these days mostly have CGI that can be sht.

[eastwing329]

I love the spoony experiment. He is not as funny as doug walker, but he has his own style. I love that he has the courage to speak out against final fantasy conformity despite all the backlash from the final fantasy cult army.

[gada1231]

Have you ever seen the original thing? It was an alien that was a humanoid plant.

[rippedlampshade]

@gada1231 Actually the book vesion, which the original was based off of, it was more like the remake. it could absorb people and appear human.

[RSprtn117]

You know im sure there were more head spiders present in the first few seconds of this video then there were dudes at that base in the original movie lol

[LittleJimm103198]

Who the fuck designed this bomb the Joker! Haha

[DaScrewUp]

this retard is bitching about every little thing. i guess mgs 1 was a terrible game because just like this game when you got capture they left all your shit in the room with you. maybe uncharted 2 was bad too because just like this there just happen to be explosive shit all around the final boss to use against him. stfu, it's just a game.

[227ujo]

@DaScrewUp omg your a retard, in mgs 1 they put your shit in a separate room and clearly you didn't see part 1 because he had high expectations for this game and it failed for him. Plus it's HIS OPINION he's focusing, on not your's, idiot.

[DaScrewUp]

@227ujo it was in the same fucking room you dumbass. the room where you are on that torture table thing, right after you get off like this guy did in this game your shit is right there. 

[Stigmatainmypants]

Reviewer tries too hard. Game was actually pretty good for the time, especially if you were a fan of the original Film. They had so many nods and little tidbits for fans tucked into the game. Some of the complaints are valid, as they exist, but they aren't game breaking by any stretch of the imagination.

I just wish you could fire the Flamethrowers straight without ducking.

[crowtrobot70]

GOOD THINGS THIS PLACE HAS 4-FOOT AIRDUCTS!

[gigidy471]

@rockerman3487 nice death my ass!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PopcornCoolie]

Forgot but the trick for the 3rd boss is to stand directly in front off it. Then it can't see you or something, because it's stops attacking. Just do whatever your instincts tell you not to do.

[DeadEndProductions13]

@PopcornCoolie All of the bosses have their really convenient weaknesses. For the first boss, you can stand in the corner of the room and he won't get you. For the second, there are LIVE WIRES right under it to electrocute it(not to mention the wall of crates you can hide behind.). And the 3rd, you can sit RIGHT UNDER it and it won't get you. I could go on forever about this game, but I only have 500 characters. I still the love the game though. Needs an Xbox 360 version.

[VengadorDorado91]

THE THING

AKA "PUKE AND FUSES"

[Supermarioguy98]

u remind me of the angry video game nerd

[dookieforlife12]

you know x-men wolverine origin was a good game

[asrob1001]

and theres combines

[asrob1001]

hahaha!! it is like half life head crabs!! i have played it before

[gigidy471]

I never watched the movie because freind told me dog dies :(

[rockerman3487]

@gigidy471 He dies a nice death, no biggie.

[TheAndrewj96]

The dude smokes eight packs a day. You think a little fire's gonna hurt him?

XD

[Chester1004]

Two things:

1. They screwed up with the UFO because in the movie they destroyed it, huge plot mistake.

2. Gears of War 2 totaly riped off final boss battle from this.

[SuperBeanson]

The Thing was made in the early 80s

[RGavin11]

Similarities with Half Life :

Headcrabs , shotguns , and retarded US soldiers who can't even shoot straight ...

[neoviper12]

Duuuuuhhh I wonder how i get past these flammable barrels.....DUUUUHHHHH!

[Knezovicz]

One thing, Spoony your bullshitting about the thing where they leave you in a lab and you said with all your weapons. Your problam is that your make a big deal of it how the game is bad and constantly bitching about!

[samipod42]

I remember having this game as a kid. It was such a disappointment

[jskaggsrulez]

Review part two of

Puke and FUSES!

[SHMovieCritic]

The guy who played dr shaun faraday (the gray haird guy) is John carpenter himself.

[higgyd1989]

@MEGATRYANT dude I'm having a serious issue understanding you comments. Especially the one where you are comparing this game to Half Life and Dead Space 2.

[SurrenderToLola]

@higgyd1989 Especially the part where Dead Space 2 was made this year and The Thing was made in the 90s...

[saint12334]

Just had to say that love That Thing You Do and keep it up, Spoony.

And do you recent commentors realize that Dead Space 2 would have knocked this off instead of the other way around?

[NickFury182]

great Spoony, now that song at the end is going to be in my head all day

[MEGATRYANT]

ok 90% of the game whit those things?

That its ALIEN SWARM!!!!!!!! american soldiers shooting you? HALF LIFE AND DEAD SPACE 2 SECURITY FORCES! secret base??? that its dead space 2 whit half life AGAIN! MOAR fuse box? dead space 2 hacks! Special forces??? Half Life black Ops the penis monter? dead space 2 church boss? Circle shooting??? that its totaly ALL GAMES! except 2d games where you cant strafe run? HOLY SHIT A GIANT HEADCRAB SUPPORTED BY ORGANIC CORRUPTION! THE THING GAME AKA DEAD LIFE!!

[Guerillaradio13]

best review ever hahaha

[4AJWP]

Cheatin Bitch hahahaha

[frafdo94]

that part they left left me with nothing



[Kiryutka22]

well the AI in this game is still better than AI in crysis2. .

[Spikex1]

I actually just got home from buying a used copy of this game based on this review.

$0.99 well spent, I think.

[JudgeMagisterDelita]

I can't believe I actually caught the Max Payne reference. I never could figure out how to beat that level.

[WocketSpice]

I think they copied half life 2....

[JackWProductions]

Awsome review very funny even for 4 years, wait wasn't Half life in a way inspired by john carpenter's the thing?

[FloppyCat1990]

@JackWProductions no Half Life story nothing like The thing.

[JackWProductions]

@FloppyCat1990 I know the storys are completely different what I ment by Half life inspired by the thing was the creatures.

[icbm345]

@JackWProductions

yeah, but john carpenter's was a remake of a movie called "The thing from outer space", that was itself based on a book, that was probably based on something else... Like the flu plagues or something. That's how it works.

[JackWProductions]

@icbm345 Yea I already know that John Carpenter's The Thing was a remake of The Thing from outer space which was based on a noval so you don't have to tell me that but still The thing does look like the monsters from Half life.

[MEGATRYANT]

@JackWProductions they look more like Dead Space 2 but they really look like Half Life if you have paranoia mod or skin pack

[WHEREisUPLIFT]

Are there spoilers for the game in this video? I am debating watching it..but I also really want to play this game. :o

[KurtKokaine1]

@WHEREisUPLIFT yes, major spoilers. Play the game. It fucking rocks!!

[cleng2508]

whats the tittle of the song at the end? i know i know it but i forgot what it is

[boettcherownzu]

I lol'd at 3:00. "After repairing a fuse box no less..."

Other favorite quote is "Who designed this bomb, the joker??"

[TheAwakenedshadow]

is it me or does the main character sound like snake at 3:25?

[MadamKouassi]

He just fucking rocked that shotgun with one hand. He didn't even use his other hand to reload. He just musters the almighty power of his testosterone like any other super hero protagonist and cocked the gun like a champ. What the fuck.

If I had the power to move things without touching them, I wouldn't even waste my time using guns, I'd just go with the force all up in that bitch.

You're spewing acid at me? Well fuck you! Junction box? Yeah, fuck you, too! In fact, fuck you perpetually.

[hauk93]

My bet is that Norway constructed that science base ... because that's what we're known for right? High developed techology and aliens ...

[Dattebayo681]

"Dangling Penis Monster" is my new band name.

[Boom2ickle]

Oh... that THING you do! AHHAHA

[KurtKokaine1]

@Boom2ickle LOL, I didn't even catch that. fucking hilarious.

[ThePredatordark]

LoL

Evil american and his headcrab things xD

Good game xD

[shada0]

is he holding is shotgun with one hand?

[ThomasThomi14]

lol they DID NOT leave him with his weapons

[1574356]

Fuse fixing made him a gud electrician then a marine.....

[replicator94]

@bakochoi get it right, this game ripped of gears of war even before it was made XD

[DeadEndProductions13]

Even though this review made the game look like crap, I wanted to play it afterwards.

[XNoBloodForImulsionX]

@DeadEndProductions13 It's actually kinda fun.

[felphero]

@DeadEndProductions13 true, i'm so getting this game! sorry spoony! haha lol 

[PopcornCoolie]

@DeadEndProductions13

 I wouldn't go out of your way to find a copy but it is fun. The reviewer is just bashing a video for being a video game.

[thehumanbirdie]

@DeadEndProductions13

Please don't xD it sucks

[hudini2]

Best review ever. I watched it twice man.

But I kept imagining you as a fat white dude wearing a white-Cheeto-stained under shirt.

[eelnats7]

Ha, I'd play this game again just to make fun of it.

[xMAIDENxCANADAx]

he didn't point it out but if Macready is able to survive why the fuck can't childs?

[hudini2]

@xMAIDENxCANADAx

Cuz he's black :/

[legowarlord]

@hudini2 lol aww thats just awful but so true about how fucked up life is.

[hudini2]

@legowarlord

Haha sorry, but you are HILARIOUS

I went to a game store and saw this game for PS2 n imidiately thought of your review xD

[a2redneck]

@hudini2 hold the phone, this game is for ps2!!!! This game looks like ps1 tech. wow this game really does suck.

[KurtKokaine1]

@a2redneck no it doesn't. basing your knowledge on the game due to graphics. pathetic.

[a2redneck]

@KurtKokaine1 did i say graphics? no i didn't. good graphics doesnt make a good game buddy.

[KurtKokaine1]

@a2redneck then what the hell did you mean it looks like PS1 technology? The only thing that pops to mind when I read that is you're bashing the graphics, since the gameplay is no way NEAR PS1 material.

[a2redneck]

@KurtKokaine1 the gameplay IS PS1 material, this is just another dime a dozen over the shoulder shooter. Have you ever played syphon filter 1? The main characters and the graphics look a lot alike and the gamplay is very simlar thats why i said this looks like ps1 tech. I really loved the movie,The Thing, but just like 95% of games based of movies, they suck. I dont have to explain why this game sucked, spoony one did more than a good enough job of explaining that.

[KurtKokaine1]

@a2redneck wow dude, you cannot possibly be comparing the gameplay of The Thing to fucking Syphon Filter. I love Syphon Filter, but due to PS1's tech, Gabe always ran like he had ants in his shoes, never stopping as soon as you let off the analog. And the shooting mechanics were some real stone age shit.

The Thing is nowhere NEAR this man. Play them both back to back and you'll know this. This game looks nothing, absolutely nothing like a PS1 game. Arguing this is asinine.

[a2redneck]

@KurtKokaine1 wow dude, I can compare the gamplay of Syphon Filter (which is a great game) to The Thing because they are so much the same. Arguing this is asinine.

[KurtKokaine1]

@a2redneck nice rebuttal. guess you forfeit this argument, seeing as how you have yet to play them back-to-back. Doing so would slap you across the face with the truth, and apparently, you ain't ready to admit that. So I guess there's no further point in continuing this. Your initial comment was invalid, and anyone who knows anything about the difference between PS1 and PS2 gameplay/graphics will attest to this. Enjoy your day ya dumb mook - >_>

[a2redneck]

@KurtKokaine1 whoa, what is your problem. I was just saying this game looks like ps1 tech. My point was that this game sucks but you made this into a fight. I know this game is for PS2 but the crappy gameplay is PS1 stuff, but i get it your right im wrong no matter what.

[KurtKokaine1]

@a2redneck exactly. your last sentence sums it all up. thanks for your time goofball ; )

[KurtKokaine1]

@a2redneck well, the last half of your sentence anyway.

[a2redneck]

@KurtKokaine1 hey, no problem good buddy.

[Radenko90]

Haha man i laughed hard, good review.

[ShadowWolfRising]

Special Forces?

well, they are special all right.....

[bakochoi]

gears of war ripped off this game with the last boss

[hudini2]

I knew exactly which game you were making a reference to (6:04)

[WARDUDE130]

[zuLL2027]

BULLSHIT!!

[DinoWrassler620]

[ImaginaryNumb3r]

wow I read some good reviews about that game and was thinking of playing it...

[TheSuperhappydude]

Think he should have mentioned the soldiers that charge into their own explosives lol.

[CheesecakeD]

2:35 wait minute... well i got the ps2 version

[J0SEKILLSU]

@CheesecakeD yeah they take your gear it took my a while to bet that part

[theorangebox999]

The movie was great and so was the game.

[Teenageboy100]

@theorangebox999 well you're half right.

[JustinXpx2]

6:00 that was stolen from Metroid lol

[SpartanRed24]

"Remember: Checkyour blood sugar and check it often."

Hows about you use this huge fucking blood tester that sucks out a liter of blood that works like 0.0005% of the time. XD The blood testing kits piss me off!!!

[tiopaco01]

3:11 the joker is working with da cigaratte smoking man! lol!!! and bad acting from blake after he sees it!

[FireBladeBurn]

Haha i was thinking of buying this game sinds i like the movie alot, thanks for sharing this with us, seems like this game is just a waste of time and money.

btw good review, i had to laugh a lot.

[wolfcommander4892]

4:40

Special force guy:hey you forgot to kill me

Blake:oh yeah*shoots him*

[Gat720Dua]

[TheXboxGuy77]

[mrsir4]

I love the movie, but this game looks terrible

[EdTheBadass]

This game review of The Thing was the FIRST I ever saw from Spoony.. and needless to say I stuck around and have seen all of his stuff up to date :) (Even because of him found Nostalgia Critic, and now hang around TGWTG site too)

Spoony, you're the man!

Actually I like the game as a kid.. probably was under impression of the movie, to notice how bad it was :)

Btw. Belly of the Beast is your funniest written review :D

[EvilCleric]

@EdTheBadass Wow. Same here. Same review that got me hooked on Spoony and the same migration over to TGWTG.

[Tehweaksauce94]

Loved the review but I still love this game :p

[ResidentEvilxx101]

Head humpers! :D

[AbhiB]

woohhhhhhhhhh

at the eddie murphy line from Golden child at 06:40

[hellfire4z1]

[MrSupermanDrummer]

excelent review!!!
