    I hope UmJammer Lammy gets the same treatment as the Parappa games on PS4 so that they can hopefully fix the flawed Parappa mode. Or even better would be a new game.
    Should definitely watch the PJ Berri anime too because I love that guy

    Ha, I also played that demo to death before owning the game. God knows how many times I played that Master Onion level.
    I own that picture disc vinyl! I also have a Master Onion T-shirt, and a collection of comics (featuring Parappa) signed by Rodney Greenblat. I'll end you some pics on Twitter if I remember.
    One thing you didn't mention is that Parappa means 'paper thin', which ties in with the art style.

    Part of me is surprised that there was no mention of Dred Foxx scamming his fans in more recent years.
    But I suppose that doesn't have much to do with the series itself, and is more of a personal story about one of the people involved with it. Still a fantastic series.

      Not encouraging anyone to go and bother the man about the whole thing. History is just worth documenting, and it sets a precedent for a certain kind of behavior that fans should keep in the back of their minds when dealing with him, for their own sake.

    Loved the parappa series from the first time I played, and later I took a chance on another music game because of it, Guitaroo Man on ps2, another classic. I as well enjoyed point blank with the guncon and I believe I still have jumping flash in its oversized USA ps1 box. Ahhhh, great memories, thx for the vid!!!

    Wow I actually didn't know about the PJ Berri anime. Thank you for mentioning Um Jammer Lammy. Such an awesome follow up to one of the best games ever and it blew my mind after completing Lammy's campaign that they surprised you with PaRappa's campaign. While I found the music from PaRappa the Rapper 2 to be awesome, something about the tone and story of the game didn't rub me the right way. Still a fantastic game series and I hope it makes a comeback (would be nice if they surprised us with an Um Jammer Lammy remaster too!).

    The original PS1 PaRappa is one of my favorite games of all time. My parents owned a movie/video game rental when I was a kid, and I used to get to bring the new movies/games home and play/watch them the night before they were made available for rent. I'll never forget 15 year old me bringing PaRappa home to play the night before it was made available for rent--I was hooked from the very first song/level (the onion karate master). I used my allowance money to buy PaRappa from Walmart a couple days later and played it so much I'm surprised I didn't burn a hole in that black-bottomed disc.
    Thank you for doing this video and bringing back so many great memories. Also, never forget: In the rain or in the snow; I got that funky funky flow!

    Yeah, there were demos that were given out to people through the PS Underground club service in the US. that's where I first played it and I was hooked.
    I hope we can see a new Parappa game when the remastered version sells well enough.

  • @asmallquest
    @asmallquest Před 7 lety

    I played the demo of PaRappa a lot too so I know the opening level really well. Need to get the game in my collection as I would like to play the rest of the game as I do like rhythm games. Great video as always and I look forward to the next Complete History

    I imagine that Parappa anime is probably like Anima Crossing in that it's actually a good adaptation that actually captures the feeling & look of the game.

    @thenonexistinghero Před 7 lety

    Nice job on this! Definitely learned a few new things. Would've also liked to see Gitaroo Man crammed into it. It's a different developer, but I always think of the game as a spiritual successor to Um Jammer Lammy and the game just oozes with style too.

    I had that demo... it was so good I leant it to someone and never saw it again! Luckily I found the full game of PaRappa The Rappa 2 and finally played a whole game. So much joy!

  • @Siepher83
    @Siepher83 Před 7 lety +1

    I did play the hell out of a demo back before it came out in the 90's(I'm in the US). I also managed to get a copy of the original ost on cd too thanks to Kinokunya in the mid 2000's.
    The trick to the freestyle rappin' cool thing is as long as you tap to the beat of the song you will stay cool. It's hard at first but if you know the song like the back of your hand then its not an issue if you know that fact.

    • @TheBLBShow
      @TheBLBShow Před 7 lety

      The Freestyling Mechanic is actually very simple.
      Just tap on the beat with simple algorithms. You can literally do it with your eyes closed. Leave some gaps, hit some beats. Just don't mash or hit off beat. Dunno why people say it's confusing.
      Also you can just hit the same algorithms in every stage. Just adjust the speed to the songs tempo

    Love me some PaRappa The Rapper and love seeing it get talked about on this CZcams thing. I feel like the poor paper thin dog has been ignored a bit over the years. Apparently the PAL versions have more of a focus on freestyle rapping due to issues with the 50hz signal. I think everyone had that demo disc. it's like the Mario Bros/Duck hunt of PS1 discs. No matter what you probably have it somewhere in your house even if you don't remember getting it.
    Definitely getting the HD remake when it's out. The demo was a great trip down memory lane.

  • @fireflocs

    I knew you was going to say demo disc! I was 20-21 back then. I played it stupid, more than games I owned and can quite honestly say it is one of the games that "helped" me memorise the sony pad... I still had YBXA and ABC engraved in my head back then.

  • @cloudcommunications2336

    I know every single words to the levels in this game I played it that much. First saw it on a PS kiosk at a hotel and got it for my b/day.
    I honestly still get random messages of my little bro with a few lines of the chicken level which I respond and finish, love that game.

    Vib-Ribbon would make a pretty good Complete History video, with it's marketing tie-in roots, the way it achieves it's main feature, and obscure sequels.

    Keep it going Slopes. You got fans here in San Antonio Texas, anyway great video. What do you think about Clover's Okami for Playstation 2 and Square Soft's Musashi the Brave Fencer for Playstation 1? Just want to know why not such a sucess and would like to know if their is or was a crazy story behind them. Hell I'd even like the history of the Playstation 1 Pizza Hut Demos. Actully that's how I heard of Musashi game. Damn well good luck just 1 video a month would be cool.

    Hey, what was that band game on the Wii all about? I cant remember the name, but I think there was some relation to it. I missed it completely but I cant remember if the reception was good or not either.
    Great job with this! I actually didn't play Parappa first. I played the UmJammer Lammy demo over and over and loved it so much that it was the only thing I wanted for my birthday. Then I played Parappa 2 followed by the PSP version of the first game. All out of order lol
    I dunno whats wrong with some of those people either! Parappa 2 was *excellent*. Better freestyling and fun difficulty options. You can tell they had fun making up some of those inputs.

  • @Glitchedd
    @Glitchedd Před 7 lety +2

    Loved the video. Ps1 is definitely my favorite Era of games, with Parappa and Um Jammer Lammy being huge favorites. I've still yet to play Vib-Ribbon, but its coming in the mail soon.
    Because of you mentioning Matsuura's early work with PSY S and his game based on it, I went out and found the Point and click game and uploaded some footage of it, since I couldn't find any at all on CZcams. If you want to see what the game is like, check out the video on my channel! I think any fan of Matsuura would be very interested to finally see some gamplay.

  • @Oddbrother
