Hey! If you like the video please share it around because CZcams sure won't!
I dunno, youtube's been sending me some good channels of late.
Like this one!
Meanwhile the only way I know you've uploaded anything since Men in Black was a notification I got this morning.
On the plus side I now have a bit of binging to do.
Jeff goldbloom telling me to go outside touch some grass and get some bitches is the funniest shit I have ever seen.
Yep the 90s were the best for video games. Just for the reason you mentioned.
loving that this is out, found your channel through the first one. 5 hours of tightly scripted content is no small feat (i dont have to take your word for it, i know) and it's hella impressive to see you producing these so quickly without cutting corners on quality.
will be working my way through this video over the next couple of days. may the algorithm be ever in your favour.
"Tresspasser gets its own part in the retrospective."
Me: YES!!
Where is it
WHERE ISSSSSSSS ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Your videos are so good, found you thanks to the men in black one, I don't really care about Jurassic park or men in black, but there's something really entertaining about the way you tackle the games, so thank you.
Thank you for mentioning how Jurassic park is a spiritual sequel to Westworld. A lot of people only know of Westworld because of the HBO show and not that it was originally a movie written by Michael Crichton. I remember watching (the original) Westworld on TCM as a kid. I enjoyed the movie thinking "Hey this is a lot like Jurassic Park but with robots instead" then I found out it was written by Crichton and it all made sense.
Edit : The Lost World was the first 3D game/Sega Saturn game I played (at a friend's house) and one of the first few titles I had for the Playstation. Personally I think the title still looks pretty good for a PS1 title.
The gamecom version would have been even less playable in person. Its awful passive matrix lcd ghosted pixels so badly those jungle levels would have been a big grey smear. Never actually owned it but a demo system at a local toys r us was wild, definitely convinced people not to bother
It's humbling to watch a 5 fucking hour, Mandalore-caliber retrospective before it even reached 4 digits on views.
The quality of your videos, insight and most of all sheer goddamn commitment is absolutely top notch and it is just a matter until they blow up, and I'll be there to feel some weird unwarranted entitlement like I knew you from before or smth.
Anyway, thanks to you I gave Evolution 2 a go after I didn't really like evo1 and after forcing myself through the "campaign" I actually liked it quite a lot. Wonder what you'll have to say about the Evo games.
Thanks!
As someone who's very experienced in fighting games, I completely get why you don't like Warpath.
Something about this game feels very off. I can't quite explain it, but just moving and attacking in general doesn't look as smooth as games like dead or alive. I'd say there's some enjoyment to be found when playing with a friend, but that can be said about many fighting games. I have played worse, but I couldn't recommend this one to someone else (outside of maybe trying it).
Fighting games in general are difficult to get into due to their nature. Rarely can a fighting game make the CPU enjoyable to fight against as the best strategy tends to be using one move over and over in some cases. If this game had more time in development, I think it could have been something special.
Let's GOOOOOO 5 hours I'm so stoked. I'm also so glad Trespasser is going to be in a separate section, it's a game that's genuinely extremely important to me and I'd hate to have it get lost in the background. It was the only FPS I had growing up and I beat it many times without ever being able to watch the beginning or end cutscene, because our computer was incapable of playing it at the normal speed so it'd be over in seconds.
Jeff Golbluhm telling you "Go touch grass and get laid" is an incredible reward, I think.
Man, what a great video.
I especially appreciate that you drew attention to Warpath's menus! That was always one of my favorite aspects of the game, the menus were so atmospheric and moody! It always made child me want to explore and see the world that the game was setting up! There was something so... eerie about that ambiance! I put so many hours into Warpath as a kid! Honestly, that period in between Jurassic Park and during The Lost World was such a magical part of the 90's to be a child in- the Playstation 1 Game, the Arcade game, the commercials and Trespasser-
Man.
Great toys, atmospheric game settings and just a wonderful time to let your imagination run wild!
I appreciate your videos for bringing that period to light with the games!
Thanks!
I am having endless fun watching this video in small chunks. It's like a Netflix series that just dumped an entire season all at once - very bingeworthy. Also, I love how you're leaning into more profanity-laced commentary without it being gratuitous. That combination of highly intelligent essay-style narration with sprinklings of foul language is very appealing. You'll probably get a few comments saying you should mind your language (I speak from experience) but pay them no mind. You're doing great work!
Thanks! I usually find I curse more when I don't like a game so make of that what you will.
Glad to see someone give Chaos Island it’s due. Likewise, glad you were able to get some enjoyment out of TLW arcade even without the light guns and sit-in cabinet experience that made it so magical. I probably would’ve been easier in my review on TLW PS1, even though I agree with most of it’s faults I wouldn’t call it a “bad game” outright, just a frustrating one. I also disagree strongly about Warpath, although I grew up with fighting games of this era so, different strokes for different folks and all.
Every time I think “maybe I’ll be productive today”, suddenly a new 4+ hour video comes out.
I am medically reliant on it, stick it in my veiiiinsssssssss (thank you for the video :))
The Deja Vu running gag was too good. The Chaos Island bit had me reeling especially. 🤣
bout time :) like many, I subscribed because of your first video in this series. excited to watch this one
Just when I was getting worried we'd never get a pt 2 ❤
I've played the Lost World Arcade though in person, and I feel like we really melted through the bosses with the light gun. Never got to the spots where the character movement stops.
Maybe it's a quirk of the emulation? Who knows.
I was waiting for this, thank you! 🦖🦕
I swear this dude just appeared one day and started releasing banger after banger
Love this series! Looking forward to the Trespasser video, I hope there'll be a section on the custom levels community. Been watching Shadefyre slowly play his way through a lot of them over the last 10 years and as a result have become quite a fan of Trespasser despite never actually playing it.
Thanks! I'll definitely talk about the Trespasser community but I probably won't play any of the custom levels, that's one rabbit hole I really don't have time to go down if I want the video out this year.
Loving your channel! Keep doing what you're doing because you are doing great work. No gimmicks, no annoying persona, no over the top skits, no ugly cartoon mascot popping up making poses. Just honest, insightful reviews. 11/10 content.
Good-o. New Lizard content! Awesome!
Five fucking hours?!?
Yeah, might have to enjoy this in segments.
Please don't watch it in one sitting, not even I could manage that.
I don't know squat about Jurassic Park, but watching this retrospective video (and the previous one) has been quite a fun rollercoaster ride.
"Let them out of their cage, and they'll be doing just fine, goring you to death." BAAAAAAHAHAHA, wonderful!
That picture of the T-rex in the credits is from an issue of Zoobooks about dinosaurs.
Thanks!
Didn't know that Michael Crichton never wrote a sequel aside from Lost World. That was neat to learn.
I will forever be befuddled by how drastically different the movie is from the book, since The Lost World is genuinely one of the most filmable books I've ever read. The cast is a reasonable size, the number of locations and setpieces is the right amount for a movie, and all the action scenes and new dinosaur abilities ask for a step-up in the special effects department without demanding the moon. You can tell it was written with a movie adaptation in mind, but it doesn't sacrifice its quality as a book in the process. It's still a solid read in its own right (though you could tell Crichton was writing just to write at points).
Good video! Lots of fun.
I loved The Lost World on the Genesis. Me, my brother and my cousin spent a long time with that one. As for "Nameless Hat Man", as a kid, I always assumed it was Eddie Carr, since it resembled his Kenner action figure :D
I love your work.
I was expecting you to skip the MS dos game, and although you hated it that game was my childhood.
Poor Trespasser was ahead of its time. I like it, I got as far as a mounted gun segment but it's just too complex for it's own good
Yooooooo I just binged part one yesterday
This Video is so good! Really liked it :)
I have a soft spot for Lost World on PS1. I played the heck out of it, and actually got pretty good, although for some reason, I always ended up quitting after the raptor stage, so I never played the T-Rex levels. I do have a strategy guide, which just recommends constantly chomping your way through the levels, so I guess they recognized it was a bit crap as well.
Seeing the Genesis game in-depth was interesting. I've never played it, and most CZcamsrs just focus on the impressive animation sequences, so I never even knew it was a top-down collect-a-thon.
The Lost World arcade with an 80-inch screen and full seat setup would have been epic. Also, Warpath seems like Primal Rage: The Bad Version, which is saying something, since Primal Rage wasn't that great to begin with. Anyways, thanks for another fantastic video!
Warpath isn’t really like Primal Rage at all aside from being a “fighting game with dinosaurs” from a gameplay perspective they’re very dissimilar.
I know. It was just a joking comment not to be taken all that seriously.@@ThePatchedVest
dude love this video how is the trespasser video going along?
Thanks! The Trespasser video is eating me alive, but it's coming together slowly but surely.
@@monotonallizard will you talk about lego dimensions sense it has Jurassic park included
@@ringtail99 I'll definitely bring it up when I get up to the Jurassic World games in the retrospective, but I don't know if I'll play it.
Aussies never lose
Just don't remind them about the Emu War.
Love all the “I need to use the bathroom”s.
I have loving memories of playing the Genisis game with my dad when I was young. I'm sure it was a pain playing it with a kid. The screen would only scroll when both people moved the same way and I always wanted to be the one to drive...into whatever the nearest enemy was till the vehicle exploded. As if the game wasnt hard enough lol
Thank you for making me think back on such a beloved game.
Great stuff. Good work!
These vids need to be even longer and more detailled.
Other than that, this is further proof for my theory that people who enjoy the story framing in games over the play don't like fighting games, as they're fundamentally the play over the framing.
i don't know, what's a lagoosh with you?
also i had a game com with re2, and i had a terrible time with it. whether that's because it was a clonky portable adaption or because i had a better variety of video game entertainment to try out at the same time, don't know. it was definitely a game that felt weird and off-putting even to my tiny child mind.
One of the more interesting parts of Warpath is that even though there's no obvious plot present, the narrator seems to implicitly be a guy on a P.A. system telling somebody in universe stuff. You can an almost imagine that this is some kind of illegal dinosaur fighting ring and it works except when it's like San Diego or The Cargo Ship where you're like uuh how did you get a Mega Raptor to this Jurassic Park Specific Set Piece?
You are my favorite gaming channel please keep going.
The other awesome thing about Lost World on Genesis is the co-op mode! Many hours of that were played together when we were kids
The amount of times he said eggs gave me histor's eye vibes
It’s here!
There was this one weird one for JP3 on PC that didn’t even get sold in stores, it was just an online download. All I remember is that sometimes it would make a spinosaurus pop up on my screen I think?
THE KING RETURNS TO HIS FALLEN KINGDOM
“Fuck you, Dimorphodon” best line in 5e video. Also sorry if I spelt that wrong.
"Vore enough of them" jfc, you make me want to drink
I know the Jurassic Park series aren't known for their accuracy, but damn do all the dinosaurs in Warpath look awful. Never before have they looked so anorexic and like skeletons with skin on them.
5 hours.... Hell yes lol
Thank you for making those long essays. First one i watched was Hitman 47. Watching since.
Yaaaaay new jp video!!
The lost world ps1 was my childhood
The hat guy from the Sega Genesis game is based of the toy model of Eddie Carr.
LET'S GOOOOOOOOO
am a strategy game freak like from the age of empires and total war series and i would love to try chaos island.
Just to explain the SEGA mega drive release. Europe (sepcially the UK) is entirely to blame.
We were a bit of a bizarroworld in which the NES flopped hard due to having to compete with cheaper microcomputers and software and SEGA consoles lasted WAY longer than they should have. The Master System for example was getting releases here as late as 1994/5.
I didn't know that, that's really interesting.
@@monotonallizard actually I kind of wanted to ask why you chose the GG version of Jurassic Park over the Master System version. It's a little thing but the screen real estate really takes the edge off some of those levels.
It's a nitpick sure, but please indulge me here 😅
@@qexband9427 Just human error; I didn't realise the Game Gear and the Master System were different consoles. I thought they were different names for the same console, like Genesis and Mega Drive, and didn't catch it until after the video was finished. I might go back and check out the Master System versions in another part of the retrospective if they're different enough to play, but that's years away yet.
@@monotonallizardfair enough. I wouldn't bother. The GG is pretty.much a direct port just with more screen crunch. In fact most of the GG's library is Master System games.
Keep up the great work dude. Really enjoying your stuff.
when it’s finally JP3 time, DO NOT drop the ball please. Most of them are for the GBA and PC. Park builder on gba is especially interesting, since I think it’s the first JP sim/tycoon game ever made. The DNA factor for gba is also an interesting one. They pumped out a ton of weird shovelware games for JP3 on PC so do your best finding them all! The Scannerz one in particular will be a bitch.
Nostalgia memories deez nutz
This game isn't garbage I played it with my brother on 2 players and completed it, it has one of the best boss battle levels
Me: wow cool, you can play as a compy!
14:38: who wants to play as a fucking compy??
Me: ☹️
The Hunter in the Lost World PlayStation game looks like Hasbro’s Dieter Stark :)
The Arcade game is still the absolute best.
I really don’t agree with your take that the JW trilogy made herbivores into domestic cattle, especially when the original movie literally has Grant describe Brachiasaurs as big cows. I guess I’m not saying the JW movies don’t do that, but it’s just incorrect to imply that it’s a new thing that only started happening recently

Where is the trespasser review lol?
Eating me alive lol
At the time of this comment there's about an hour of video scripted out.
Yo, I got NO Notification for this. I was listening at work since this is a great vid to listen to, and checked myself. Good to hear! Helluvan experiment, that game is - and a nice community that made the game actually fun and playable.
Jurassic park arcade games by Sega are fucking brilliant
What about trespasser?
He explains in the intro.
I mean, for a Game Boy game, The Lost World wasn't that bad.

poofart
15:04 wtf, it’s the first time I’m hearing of this game & seeing the environment +visuals & I can’t believe it’s a pre-2K game with those smooth AF visuals & majestic game backgrounds & design ! 🙀😍😍🫡🫡
It really puts dozens of more modern titles to utter shame!
Can’t believe that such games are relegated to the past while modern “highest downloaded” titles consist of *UberPoop tier* JW 1v1 battle style games on iOS & android 🫠😑😬😭😭
Hats off to the old school devs atleast for their animations & environment design!❤🫡🫡
