  • "THEY TURNED IT INTO AN RTS"

    Will always be one of my favourite ever NooBTooB quotes.

  • the start of demon's souls is probably the hardest. it took me about 4 hrs of trying to beat the worlds 1-1 and 1-2, but after you get some good items you can own the rest. Took me less than 20 hrs to get to NG+ with almost all the trophies!

  • who else think they should make a video spescial about dark souls? over skype or something

  • fuck demon's souls!!!!!!

    they say that the online is very cool and helpfull

    but after 2 years they are shutting it down?!?!?!?!

  • Im just glad I got feature on the podcast atleast once 51:30 (Daluca)

    Sad to see the podcast end :'(

  • I love Tobins evil smile when Yuzo says Brutal Legend in the beggining of the episode.

  • I would have loved to have tried Demon's Souls, but I only own the 360. But thankfully, Dark Souls is out this year and it's multiplatform.

  • @dajman15 You're crazy to not have played Demon Soul's!

  • @893kiryu

    Word on the street is....You're crazy if you endured it.

  • @dajman15 This is a walkthrough finishing demon soul's in 1 hour.

    youtube.com/watch?v=KWi6t8Psv9­w

    Don't worry Dark Souls will be the same as Demon Soul's.If u cannot endure Demon Soul's u won't like Dark Souls i'm sorry.

  • @893kiryu

    Did you read my posts? I wasn't being literal about being crazy enduring it, and it wasn't a dig at the game either. Like I said, I've never played it but it looks interesting.

  • the controller wasn't on...

  • so is the demon's souls buy worthy?

  • Demon's Souls was so awesome! It's a bit frustrating to get your friends together but once you manage it and you have like 2 of your buddies with you, since the death penalty is pretty steep there's this deep sense of camaraderie, and when you're about to get fucked by some boss and your buddy jumps in and saves you, then you take out the big guy... GOD so satisfying. One of the best gaming experiences I've had. Ever.

  • welp better than that gay show good game

  • The Maneater boss battle in Demon's Souls had my hands violently trembling. I haven't had that kind of pit of my stomach gaming experience since world 8 in Mario 3 as a kid.

  • hey I was just watching this and noticed you mentioned Nyx Quest, did you know it's now available on steam, just thought i'd let you know

  • I've been fucked in the ass by Demon's Souls for the past couple weeks. Is it wrong that I like it?

  • 22.72. bad game design? please think before you speak :/. demon souls is a legend game yes its punishing. yes its tough. but they done it on purpose so that you train your self how to play it and then when you achive it you feel good at the end of it and u get better * better and can see jus how much better uv got since uv played thts wkd design.

  • 20:27 tobin at his best.

    I finish games.

  • My only fault for this ep, is that I watched it after I got Brutal Legend. : (

  • @TheDarkkeychain Doh! Always watch Noobtoob before buying! :)

  • @tobin00 can i ask do you ever go back on games? like maybe play Fallout 3 10 years laater?

  • @TheDarkkeychain - Damn dude! What did you do, take it back?

  • @Francisah What DID I do?

  • @Francisah - Haha! Buy Brutal Legend! 

  • i dont understand way people think demon souls is hard is pretty easy. how could you die 8 times on the dragon after the first time you should know not to run in front of him just stand there and time the dragon, the tower night is very simple lol not that it matters you where to weak to be in that world in the first place

  • he's scared of losing 5000 souls in demon's souls? thats nothing. it gets worse as you go along, because the game kind of forces you into having souls on you as the amount of souls it takes to level up goes up and up.

  • @terra61 he was on the first level...

  • I actually love the RTS part of the game, they didnt really explain WHY they hated it, and its pretty awesome i think.

  • Great vids;)

  • "You never get the joy of unlocking a new bean." Best line ever spoken.

  • Brutal Legend the first few hrs were brilliant but then the game turns in to a crap RTS

  • im 6 months late but i ownder did they know you can just quit the game before your bout to die your back where u were and u keep your souls :P

  • I looked forward to this game, and it was great, untill the RTS then i shut it off and returned it. They never even mentioned that in the advertising. lame.

  • Demon's Souls: Brutality beyond even the old-school! Determined to see this one through but won't be surprised if real world suicide takes place first.

  • Demon's Souls is outstanding! :D

  • w0ah did noobtoob just make a friends reference?

  • Demon's Souls is a cross between Ninja Gaiden and Elder Scrolls 4. I have not wanted to play any other game. This game require patience & strategy more then any other game I have ever played. But most of all it takes determination to go the distance because at the end of a long battle you not only conquer your foe you conquer your fear and are rewarded with large overwhelming sense of accomplishment and pride. it is already # 2 all time for me behind Fallout 3 . Fallout New Vegas is out in soon

  • Hey guys i just got a ps3 and im currently playing alot of bfbc 2 and ratchet and uncharted, would any1 reccomend Demon's Souls? It looks good and im up for a challenge

  • @xRiseAgainsT27 thinking of picking that up too.

  • demon souls sounds like a game you either totally love or totally hate

  • oh, you have no idea.

  • @tobin00

    i was piss happy when i saw ur shirt showing Trogdor!!!!!!!!!!

  • I completely agree, games these days tend to hold your hands a little to much.

  • I agree with Yuzo that Demons Souls brings back something that has been missing in gaming for about a 10-15 years now. I thought the game was perfect, the last boss was pretty piss weak but after finishing the game, you just collapse in your couch and think "Finally I fucking beat this game". Its like the modern day castlevania

  • Demons souls is not an unfair game.

    If you die its because of your own mistakes.

  • Unless someone invades your game and kills you.........

  • @LiesLikeKnives No, even then you will die because of your mistakes. The player who invades you is 5-20 lvls lower than you

  • No, you die because of the physics engine.

  • @69luxurious umm, how does the physics engine affect you??

  • Falling off ledges and enemies hanging on to me. Havok sucks, it overreacts.

  • Just finish Demon Souls and the final boss is a joke. You would think the final would be super ass hard, but he's the weakest of all the boss battles. After you the beat him the games is over. I'm like thats it, I put in over 40 hours of gameplay and I get a weakass end boss and a crapy ending. Thanks a lot Demon Souls.

  • I believe the finally boss is met to be weak. Its a weak and disfigured Creature met to capture and portray the result of the corruption in man. lust for power turned that person into a demon. don't think of it as the last boss, think of it as a lesson :D

  • and not to mention you can summon up to 2 people to help you in any level and all the bossfights so anyone that watches this and is on the fence about demons souls watch an actual review on it if your interested in buying it but these guys are awesome in every other way!!

  • hey i really enjoy watching you guys you guys deffinetly flow well together but i have a bone to pick on your demons sous review yuzo didnt even know at first if it was first person or third person? come on now you guys need to play the games to the end before you really give a deffinetive answer to people who may be on the fence about the game but now dont get it because of a review of a game you barely played and this game isnt very hard when you get through the first hour it was soooo do able

  • if you noticed the rocker who eddie saved was probably the guy who did raz in psychonauts

  • He forgot to mention that every time you die the stage gets Harder

  • why did the camera moved a but around 15:25

  • i know, he relied on the stars to sell the game.

  • i kind of think the team just fucked up the game, mabye they were... ugh lazy the artists are GREAT though , but ughh he needs to get rid of the stars and shit, cause thats what ruined the game. he needs to go back to his roots.. im so confused.. i just want another amazing Tim Schafer game. he should of went all out TIm with the writing .. !!!!! ugh !!! fuck

  • I think the multiplayer online was really fun, but i liked the legit missions before the RTS missions than the game got boring... -_- ... the RTS only works in online, and the open world is VERY empty .. like wtf, im sad cause TIm Schafer is my FAVOURITE developer.

  • So did Yuzo indeed go back and finish Demon's Souls or did he quit like Tobin predicted?

  • What do you think? I AM ALWAYS RIGHT!

  • hey should i get bioshock 2 or demon souls

  • @zipperz730 bioshock 2 all the way

  • OMG TROGDOR!!!!>!>!>!!>>!>!>!>!

  • lol demons souls is not a bad game design and its not unfair becus you can unlock shortcuts and when you die the enemies respawn but the world doesnt so it is forgiving, you just have to be really patient and take it one step at a time. the second play thru new game++ it got easier to me and finished it in a few hours but man it has so much replayability up to level 1000 thats crazyyy, its really addicting...

  • Nice Left 4 Dead 2 shirt, where can get one.

  • kwela-cool stuff! you guys are good on what you do. more power to you guys.

  • Great Review(s), loved it. You guys had me glued to my fucking seat for an hour, listening about games I don't give a rats ass about, now that takes skills. First ep. I watched actually, I'm tempted to look around now.

    Anyways, I just wanted to put a bug in your ears. I can beat Demon's Souls in 5 hours and only die 8 times, mainly from falling because I was rushing! Anyways, good reviews, keep it, I'll be watching from now on!

  • @AllenAdoplh Surely not. Are you some sort of alien video game god?

  • hulk back in tna lol

  • yo guyz great review

  • Thanks!

  • i didnt know much about brutal legend, played the demo and liked it, but is it worth a buy? i didnt think that comedy could make me but a game but brutal legends done a good job, from what ive seen.....

  • Did you not watch our review? :)

  • Most probably Undertaker is going to retire sometime in 2010, also Hulk Hogan is actually part of a competing business against WWE called TNA wrestling.

  • i got that l4d2 t shirt

  • 100 bucks says you both put Brutal Legend as your #1 worst or most dissapointing game for this year.

  • the cool thing about demon's souls is the sense that your deaths are because of your mistakes, and not because the game throws crazy stuff like teleporting enemies at you

    the backtracking thing after death seems pretty annoying at first, but lots of stages have shortcuts that you can find and unlock

    the other tension-creating aspect of the game, you can be invaded by other players in body form who are intent on killing you to get their body back, and the demons in the level will help them too

  • i rented brutal legend and the moment i was able to control the character, i knew something was horribly wrong and by the time i got to the world itself, i was packing the game up to go return it and play something fun.

  • desperate much? ;)

  • 59mins?  TLDW

  • I completely agree with you guys on Brutal legend. As soon as I played that first RTS thing, I never played it again. Really sad I bought it on launch day. Sixty dollars I'm not getting back.

    On the flip side, though. Great episode! You're the only podcast I watch. xD

  • Are you guys going to review just cause 2? It looks Awesome

  • demon's souls is soooooo gooood. I love it.

  • Demon's Souls is EPIC. I just wish it were on PC or Xbox. I normally hate having to do the same level over and over, so I take a break now and then, but I can't completely stop playing! I love the feeling of "RED EYED SAMURAI BLOCKING MY WAY... FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUU"

  • Is the porn dragon in demon souls...?

  • on the ps3 store it says up to 3 players can play at once

  • the rest of brutal legend wasn't that bad but when the humour disappeared it all seemed to go down hill

  • Episode 163 is live, everyone! Go check it out!

  • I would hope so, it's been uploaded for about an hour, we're just waiting for Youtube to render it now.

  • what's it about?

  • you guys uploading yet?

  • Yep, it's uploading as we speak.  30% done :)

  • 30%?!

    when did you start?

  • download for $0.99 wtf?! You guys are selling the episodes?

  • you guys should look at the new alice trailer it looks bad ass

  • where is the new video

  • Hey Tobin and Yuzo. Have Noobtoob created a project where gamers help other gamers from different parts in the world to deal with these release date problems. Like Demon Souls. The buy buys the game and have it ship to an American address and then that person just send it to the buyer. Just a thought.

  • or use ebay.

  • Beaterator? I thought the prostitutes nick name for Yuzo, was, The half minute hero?

  • You guys are going to review tekken six soon, right?

  • Yo two questions about demon's soul:

    1 how do i use guestures?

    2 how do i rate ppl things?

    And why must this game be so HARD!

  • 163 gonna be up tonight?

  • Not sure, no audio from range yet!

  • do we have audio yet? please?

  • Yeah range just finished the audio. It takes a long ass time to edit and render and upload though. Might not be till tomorrow!

  • you a holes!!!!!

  • So, Borderlands - coolest weapon found so far?

  • wow i loved brutal legend the whole game im so confused ???

  • Hey, not everyone's tastes are the same. If you loved it, good for you!

  • Wii-imagining. Haha, shit was hilarious.

  • I watched a video and the guy did a speed run of the game and didnt die once. That made mee feel like a fuck.

  • COME PLAY BORDERLANDS WITH ME :D

  • Hey tobin I know you are a big fan of platformers so I think you should try out the free jak and daxter the lost frontier demo on the psp playstation store I'm just downloading it now so you should give it a try and hopefully it's as good as jak 2

    Yow!

  • I will! Thanks for the heads up.

  • I feel like everyone's getting sucked in by this whole "hardcore" crap with Demon's Souls and it's causing people to ignore all of this game's ridiculous flaws. Combat is repetitive, enemy and character design are bland and uninspired, and there is no story to speak of. This game is far too lacking at it's core to be called anything but average.

  • thats why its fucking awesome, its not like gow where you rip people in two or oblivion where you never die

  • wow, thanks for the heads up with Brutal Legend. I did not know that the latter part of the game was a mashup of an RTS. I'm gona wait until this game to drop to at LEAST half the price b4 I give it a try! I seriously hate RTS's..

    And Demon's Souls is awesome, but U2 has taken up ALL of my time, haha. ;)

  • How about renting it? Warning though... you'll probably finished the game. The RTS is very annoying. The only thing I liked about the part is the ability to fly. I wish I could have traveled that way instead of driving.

  • thx for the info. Yea, maybe I'll just rent the thing lol. =)

  • read the message below second and the message 2 down first. i thought i may need to say that.

  • ... it would love to have PSN-exclusive power ups or game modes.

    4) Sony is contemplating putting some Japanese Sega titles like those in the Yakuza series in a special Import section of PSN with a range of prices from $9.99 to $39.99.

    *end quote*

    This all sounds good to me, what do you guys think?

  • Game Informer:

    Recently the French site objectif-sega put up the purported minutes of a meeting between Sega and Sony, and they contained a few interesting tidbits.

    1) Sony wants Sega to provide them with a list of Dreamcast titles they can offer on PSN for digital download, including any exclusives.

    2) Sony is working on a PS2 emulator for the PS3 and wants to put all PS2 titles on PSN.

    3) Sony is considering putting out a Sonic Blu-ray collectors retrospective for around $99. Sony says...

  • Number 2 is very likely to happen in the future

  • Is #2 possible?(Hey no poop jokes)

    I thought that to play PS2 games required a hardware that Sony took out of the PS3 systems after the launch and 2nd generations were released to lower the price.

    If wrong... it's good. Not great since I still have my games on disc. But the thought of GTA San Andreas on the PS3 is ejaculating... I mean great.

  • I heard the yakuza 3 demo is on the japanese psn store?

  • hey tobin and yuzo, i just had to tell someone who would appreciate this. playstation network just sent me a promotion code for a god of war 3 demo, its downloading now

  • Ooooh, can you share it with us? :)

  • sorry, i have had bad experience with game sharing before,

  • Yeah when I played Borderlands I haven't had to grind at all. I'm a 26 atm and the game is fairly easy solo and awesome co-op

  • I wouldn't purchase Borderlands cause it's a bit repetitive, but its not a bad game. Added bonus is the fact that the game is NOT a short game. I played it for a week and I'm not even finish.

  • Comment removed

  • Borderlands is JUST okay. The reason is that I HAVE to grind. i have to level grind to do the main quest because the dudes r pretty tough and like GTA u lose money and have to re commute back to where you were when u die. So i get bored and lose track of the main story which makes for a bad game.

  • That's interesting, I haven't had to grind once. I've been doing all the main quests and side quests, and I've found the progression to be perfect so far.

  • I grind a lot in the game, but I take things slowly. Borderlands is one of the few games where I actually like level grinding. The combat is so satisfying.

  • I totally agree with Yuzo on Demon's Soul. Games nowadays are way too easy and not punishable, people got lazy even with fricking games. It reminds me of Diablo 2 Harcore mode.

    It is a great game.

  • this actually the 1rst game i have ever played that had such great replay value thru new game plus ect.. That Can say alot to some, because iguess im saying i get bored easily, and this game actually made me want to keep playing after the end, especially for the bad ending and the red eye stone

  • i dont agree with the part on demon souls about restarting on the level because,seriously any enemy can be fatal if careless, its always seem fun on any enemy( to me any ways)

  • lol abut

  • is demon souls coming out in europe?

  • Sounds like they won't for a while.  I say, fuck that and try to find a way to get it any ways.

  • can you play american games on british ps3s?

  • Yes.PS3 is region free.

  • thanks i might get demon souls off ebay or something then

  • Yuzo, based on what you said about "Demon's Souls," I am suggesting to you, "Izuna: The Legend of the Unemployed Ninja." It sound like something you might enjoy. it can be brutal though, and it takes a little time to get into it.

  • I hate the ratings on games, these days all the good games are rated k18.Some stores that have "cool" people at the checkout will let me buy them though. Gamestop wont even sell them to my mum or dad if I am with them there.

    And I am almost 17 years old. -.-

  • Then u must go to a shitty gamestop dude!

  • In Finland Xbox360 games cost about 65-70 Euros witch is about 96-104 Us dollars. they used to be 60 euros max.

    And there are no game rental places here, or at least I have never seen one or even heard of one.

  • awesome

  • brosephs damn did over hype brutal legend.

    thats why they hate it so much.

  • Yeah, we definitely had high expectations. But it really wasn't very fun.

  • Haha hey tobin after watching 162 you where talking about how old Hulk Hogan was and a few min later a commercial was on spike anounceing his return to wrestling haha well just thought ide tell you cuz i thought it was funny

  • tobin is right demons soul will steal your soul and time

  • yo tobin jus' thought you should know that a God of War III demo code is supposedly coming with the Section 9 Blue-Ray version of the movie.

  • don't you mean district 9?

  • District 9 Actually.

  • yo tobin i know wat u mean. however, the demo didnt seem all that fun to me. how come u guys dont do smackdown vs. raw reviews?

  • i do think that brutal legeands multaplayer is pretty good. have u and yuzo played 2 player or maybe 4 on 4 w/ some noobtoobers?

  • Beaterator... lmao

  • We can haz Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days review?

  • Yuzo and I are trying to give it a play this week, but it's hard with Ratchet AND Borderlands!

  • borderlands is amazing right my friends are gay cause they think it sucks but what do they know i meen they liked fight night and medal of honor airborne also i was wondering as a fellow noobtoober how I could play borderlands / any other game with you on XBLA

  • hey guys i was wondering if you are gonna review dj hero?...it seems interesting and also other sites are saying that its really fun and i just would like to hear your opinion on it because it costs a lot and i dont want to fall into the same hole like brutal legend were other sites say it awesome but when i get game its not what i paid for :D, anyways keep up the good work

  • Hey guys, you might want to check out 'Machinarium' on steam, fun little puzzle game I stumbled across. =)

  • i think that the biggest problem with brutal legend is that they tried to much and mixed the wrong things a hack and slash should mix with a rts!!!

    and demons souls sound like my kind of game

  • Hey awesome Ep. guys, again!

    One for Yuzo more, Zombies Ate My Neighbours is now out on the Wii Virtual Console in America! So I know you, yuzo, will be happy! I still have my copy on the SNES- pure awesomeness. YOW

  • LOL demons soul is too damn hard , it will steal your soul if you play it

  • Nice shirt Tobin. Trogdor is a badass!

  • Haven't played BL, but I bet that if you guys hadn't heard of it before you'd be saying "Despite some problems, it was overall pretty damn awesome."

  • Dunno, the RTS stuff was really crappy. Maybe Yuzo would have liked it more than me, but I still wouldn't have enjoyed it.

  • Gonna disagree with the BL review. Only problem I had was with the individual command tutorial, mainly as I didn't have my wings so I had a hard time selecting the right unit. Otherwise, I liked the progressing difficulty of the ambush sidequests, I like finding new solos and other relics...multiplayer I'll agree, it could have been done better. If you go into 2v2+ you share the same army with your friend. Why can't we have our own stages? Share the fans sure, but I like having my own army.

  • wow for the first time i disagree with both of you, brutal legend rocked my socks!

  • Great :) Loved the shirts in this episode

  • OH NO SERIOUS STORY? THATS OBVIOUSLY A BAD THING IN VIDEO GAMES!

    Personal opinion guys, loved every minute of BL...

    Just because your bad at a game, doesnt mean theres something wrong with it =p

    But really, kinda focusing on the negativity. even if you hated every milisecond past 2 hours into it... name 20 games that have that much awesome in the first two hours....

  • Yeah, we said that the first two hours were really awesome.  But it really falls apart after that.

    And don't fall into that "if you don't like it, you must not be good at it" trap. Yuzo and I have been playing games for 20 years. We know when we don't like a game.

  • HAHA.
