- A look into the Advergame wave of the early 90s to the mid 2000s as brands like Burger King and Pepsi scramble to produce video games featuring their mascots. Titles such as Pepsiman, Darkened Skye, and of course, Sneak King

Imagine just standing outside when the Burger King pops out of a trash can behind you, offers you a burger and then proceeds to explain why his tweet about women belonging in the kitchen wasn't sexist.
Yeah yeah i can see that

Hello cow.

As a Bostonian, I can confirm that Pepsiville is only a 3 hour drive away from back bay. Great holiday location.
@@themysteriousonec2306 I wish Lynn didn’t
As a Bostonian myself pepsiville is constantly trashed by a man that runs in a chrome jumpsuit just to serve Pepsi to his citizens. He’s wanted on many criminal mischief counts, however police and court systems there are so corrupt citizens claim all they really need is a Pepsi to bribe them. Don’t get me started on Coke City Utah
almost got diabetes from there, fantastic city tbh.
I’m also a Bostonian, that’s wicked awesome, when I lived in Southie I was able to see the Great Pepsi Spill by Castle Island, so many seals were lost that day
what about the boston pepsi party
Oh boy! Sure can't wait to watch this CZcams video while drinking my PEPSI, eating my BURGER KING meal, and snacking on some SKITTLES once I'm done watching this video

And now, Joeseppi is not going to upload for 54 years because he was arrested for murder of the Burger King King.
he'll only do 6 months, mcdonalds bailed him out.
No
Burger king king deserved it because he threatened him if joeseppi did nit review his game.
not much of a change of his regular upload schedule
Remember when you were a little kid and your parents gave you Sneak King for Christmas , you were left so traumatized you never ate st burger king ever again , it was me Barry , i swapped your real christmas gift with sneak king , so that you wouldn't eat burger king and you wouldn't have enough energy to save Iris , it was me Barry

That’s a good PFP
@@privatedino3239 that’s cursed ngl
Pepsi man never skips leg day, I can respect that.
He's jacked
I too, would dance with the horribly misshapen king man who just climbed out of the dumpster. Dunno what kind of problem the critics had with this game.
I'm actually obsessed with the idea of Darkened Skye now. Like imagine reading or watching Lord of the Rings, and everything is exactly the same except the rings of power are all ring pops. 🤣
I would watch that
The entire Harry Potter saga, exactly the same in every conceivable way, except all magic wands are Snickers bars

Babe wake up new joeseppi video
Anyone else bothered by the fact that a single piece of candy is referred to as a "Skittles?"
In the CZcams community you have two types of channels:
1. Channels that create content solely to maximize of profit and monetization (e.g a 15 minute long 50 double ad break filled with a 3 minute long AFK area sponsor 1/3 the way through)
2. Channels like this one that create finely high quality content and do it for the fun and memes
Ironically, soda makes you more thirsty so Pepsi Man didn't even realize he was his own villain the whole time.
That's why we haven't heard from pepsi man. He was but a runner who loved pepsi and wanted nothing more but to make people happy, until a fatal error in the nondescript deserts of sandy area, where he realized that he was only making thirsty people more thirsty. With the realization that he was no hero, pepsi man stuffed his suit with old pepsi merch and faked his death. Pepsi man was dead, and all that remains is an olympic runner turned nutritionist. I will create the pepsi man lore.
This is absolute quality editing, keep up the good work so you can afford that fortnight bag.
Having a british man explain this shit to us makes us feel smart

"The only thing keeping Pepsi man alive"
Yes, other then ALL of the memes it later generated.
the funniest branded game is in my opinion the PC game “Animal”, in which you explore the city as a sentient British meat stick. i’ve never seen anything about it online because of the vague wording. both “Animal video game” and “animal meat stick video game” yield no results. but CZcamsr brutalmoose has a really good review on it! and all of his videos are good so you might as well watch it anyway.
The easiest way to search for that would be "peperami video game" because 'Animal' is the mascot of Peperami...which is the meat stick food upon which he is based. Saying this as a Brit who has seen their old TV adverts.
'Tis always a good day when Joeseppi uploads
Always has been

off topic but Titanfall pfp pog
4:21 So the Japanese watch dubbed anime with Japanese subtitles. Good to know.
I mean , good way to learn a language
@@carljoosepraave2102
So if they ever go to America/UK and get thirsty they are set. but god help them if they need anything other than a nice refreshing can of pepsi.
as soon as i saw the notification i jumped out a window and crawled across shattered glass and barbed wire to reach the laptop, because art like this deserves to be viewed on a laptop, not an inferior phone.
After seeing Pepsi man, I suddenly was reminded of Doritos Crash Course. It wasn’t a bad platformer so I’d be curious to see a Part 2. Great video. Cheers!
Joeseppi uploads
My sanity: guess ill stay for another 20 minutes
One of my colleague is obsessed with Pepsi man. He even asked me to find its emulator version for his android phone. XD
8:35 For late 90s corporate humour standards, that was pretty funny
The Burger King game probably could of been good if Burger King wasn’t so strict
Given that Sneak King was the one Burger King had the most control over, and that the other two games were better than it, yes. It would have been better if it wasn't as strict like the other two

*happy outro music*
Can we talk aboit how original and unique games were back then?
Like pepsiman, defcon, half life, postal, a certain italian plumber who save a princess from a giant dragon turtle by stomping his minion to death, and the Dreamcast seaman
Honestly, you made me want to play darkened Skye. And eat skittles.
He should make a video on oversimplified logos
nooope
@@shafkatctg760 YES
Pepsi man was fucking amazing. I used to play it a lot in Egypt. I still remember the construction level where I got stuck.
"Not this again." implying that this isn't the first run in he's had with the King.
Man he is seriously becoming one of my favorite creator
Darkened Skye was so humble, and they inadvertently advertised the brand in a better format than the other 'in-your-face' advertising titles. Great doc homie
why does he say trash like that 😭😭 6:13
I like the physics how the Burgerking takes out the burgers.
He's just flipping them out if his pockets.
As someone from Boston: I can confirm that Pepsi town is right next to us, ‘round an 3 hour drive.
Brands doing this stuff thinking kids will think their hip and cool, but really they just end up on r/fellowkids
You missed the best game ever. "I Love You, Colonel Sanders!"
That's a classic.
Fun fact about Mike butters, he actually played a role as the same character in the pepsiman game in an angry video game nerd video about said game, where he was on a mission to hunt down and kill pepsiman for turning everything he had (including his family) into Pepsi.
There was a German-only Kelloggs advergame for DOS called Tony and Friends in Kelloggs Land, and it was really really good.
I'm so honored to share my birthday of March 4th with PepsiMan.
8:28 im sorry, "A SKITTLES"????? not a skittLE???
i just watched this video. I remember in poland there was also one branded game, it was flash game, it was made by "Knor" and was titled "Ucieczka z Akademika" In english it's "escape from Dormitory". There was also a little contest where you could get a room in dormitory, now it's polish lost media
Please do more of these , it's so enjoyable
12:19 is now my desktop background
3:27 As someone who lives in Boston, can confirm
does pepsiman occasionally visit you?
Absolutely loved what you said about there being genuine creative people behind these projects. I think that is some thing that more people need to hear
Your explanations are well thought out and nicely structured. You have a fine tuned sense of humor vibes you've been doing this for a while. Keep it up. I may not know you but I don't have to you got this I have no doubt.
3:00 - THIS FUCKING GUY
I love this guy 😭
3:18 Pepsi man adventure 2
Agreed
This video was so beautifully made- particularly its editing!!
6:07 lol i thought that was going to be a sponsor break
The hell ? This random video about pepsi in video games started in the back while I was doing something else, and I wasn't paying attention to it until you kept repeating the name "Kotaro Uchikoshi"
And I was like "no way he's talking about the same guy"
Turns out it is, this legend made the zero escape series on handheld consoles (999, Virtue's last reward and zero time dilemma) and all three games are straight up 20/20
Another great video as always, definitely earned me as a subscriber.
According to this video, I'm a ten-minute drive from Pepsi Land.
dude your such a good CZcamsr you entertain me and your videos are always really funny you really deserve a lot more subscribers
The English Electric Lightning is a British fighter aircraft that served as an interceptor during the 1960s, the 1970s and into the late 1980s. It remains the only UK-designed-and-built fighter capable of Mach 2. The Lightning was designed, developed, and manufactured by English Electric, which was later absorbed by the newly-formed British Aircraft Corporation. Later the type was marketed as the BAC Lightning. It was operated by the Royal Air Force (RAF), the Kuwait Air Force (KAF) and the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF).
Darkened Sky looks awesome. It's a shame they had to put Skittles in. It's unique looking. I'd like to play it.
Can hardly imagine the time and effort that went into making this absolute gem. Great Video btw!!
Sneak King is the scariest brand game of all time and nothing will change my mind.
Its hard to appreciate his editing quality this is really good
Ngl, the cover art for the pepsiman game is amazing.
Imagine this, you are walking down the road, and a giant humanoid Pepsi can appears, sprinting towards you.
Run.
can we talk about how good sneak king's cover art is?
Man you just made my day much better
Pepsi for TV game
This is really well edited ngl
Pepsi man eurobeat is embedded in my cranium forever.
0:49 I’ve seen this guy somewhere! He’s a tiktok dancer
Joeseppi, you’re all grown up.
I remember subscribing when you lad like 3k subs..
I want to see a recording of someone going into Darkened Skye completely blind so I can see their reaction to hearing that the game's main plot mcguffin is fucking skittles
The avgn video where he plays pepsiman is really funny and entertaining, but I wanted to see more ads as games so thanks for uploading this 👍
M&M's lost formula was a surprisingly adequate marketing scheme to peddle pavlovian brand association to kids who had little "but its educational i swear!" titles since master blaster, oregon trail, and typing of the dead. Picked it up at the school book fair, might be my first pc purchase now i think about it.
Any shortcomings in the platforming I pinned on keyboard controls and early 3d platforming growin pains. Got the 64 taken for telling that backseat driving Kazooie I might stuff her into a whole range of useless cushions, but getting annoyed at that chunky yellow prick with boat feet? Nah...im just disappointed in my sudden math shittery...honest!
Thx for that nostalgia slammer right in the dope receptors. May you travel ever the interesting, if not always intentional, roads worth the retelling.
who else here isn't in full screen on their bed and reding the comments
No this Video needs all of the concentration
You're calling me right out here XD
I love these videos. Keep up the good work!!!
Love the vidoes the time and effort you put is incredible and it's a matter of time before you get famous
2:17 ah yes, M&M's Kart Racing, my favorite 7UP game
5:16 A true gentleman always cries when they here this song
I thought I was the only one noticing. They were such cool games, I luv em
19:19- That’s modern mobile game advertising strategies with their ads
I like how I had notifications on and yet I am just now seeing this.
Awesome video btw!
10:37
*Hears Harry Potter game music in the background*
*extreme nostalgia takes over*
11:35 the most satisfying sound ever
the editing in your videos is somthign i appreciate greatly
When we were younger, my brother and cousin used to play my uncle’s Xbox in his basement at family parties. I remember when we found this game. We played the first level and were so confused as to why it even existed. We were all under 10 at the time. I’m 21 now and I still get reminded of “Sneak King” every so often
Imagine playing a story game then a Fat Man shows up on your screen eating potato chips in the epilogue
Or mike butters drinking pepsi
When you're grieving promising titles being cancelled, just remember that these games genuinely got released and at least some actual humans spent their hard earned money acquiring these games.
I recently discovered your channel and it immediately captured my interest, but the Oakvale theme in this video is what fucking bought me
"Please, help.me..?!" wonderful man. You are a marvellous Editor bringing the pictures straight surfing on their most surprising wording waves easily and directly into my mind.
I’m from 2021, Nirvana is still on the radio.
17:41 my favorite part
Man do i like your Anvil Sound effect you insert every minute wherever possible
I love the fable music in the background of the sneak king part
Oh boy this better be good
