The anticipation of what the randomizer will spit out at the end of each video is such great bonus content, haha.
It's left me wondering if more people would watch hockey if the goal occasionally caught fire
i have never seen it. does that not happen?
I’d buy that for a dollar
@@taylorcliff6609 only when Vancouver riots
@@dspsblyuth the whole city catches fire when Montreal gets into the playoffs. Win or lose!
Imagine if after the glow puck they just kept escalating the VFX.
Holy crap I remember this game. I’m not even a hockey fan and I played the living crap out of this game back when it was released lol.
Same this game was the shit
I want to see the clip of you being salty! 😄
same!
I'll post the clip next, but CZcams is likely to shadow ban my comment, due to a link off-site. If this is the case, check thab's Twitch past broadcast history, and look for Wave Race 64 (8/394), and then fast forward to 3 hours 53 minutes in.
Here is a direct link to the clip: www.twitch.tv/videos/994441815?t=3h53m
dude, thab's rage in the clip literally ends at 69:42:00. Coincidence?........ yes, yes it is.
@@danbopes6699 Thanks! I'd be salty too
I love watching all of this series! The narration is great.
Didn't think much of this game back in the day. But it's gained a second life as friends and I have discovered it makes for a fun drinking game. Every goal scored = drink. With the amount of goals in this game, you get tipsy pretty quick with a lot of laughs along the way
We used to do this with NHL 2k5 but we freebased when we played . If you think hockey is fun drunk it’s ever better on cocaine
I had no idea about that rubberbanding feature in video games, but it explains SO much.
It was an easy way to make an ai for older consoles. It's not used as much anymore.
i remember some racing game where you could adjust this, maybe a mariokart
@@poiewhfopiewhf Mario Kart famously uses items to slow down the winning racers. Rubber banding as well, but also items.
NFL Blitz had so much of it! Automatic interception when you were winning lol
Banjo-Tooie always comes to mind whenever anyone mentions rubberbanding.
In that game, Canary Mary's races require you to button mash, but she rubberbands you ridiculously hard if you simply go fast. You can lose even with a turbo controller.
I need a ThabPhysics channel lol, that rubber band explanation was on point
Loved this game back then. The rubber banding was vicious. I feel like you could 'tought it out' though. If you played strong enough defense it was possible to prevent the other team from shooting at all. And there were some tricks to improving defense.
I remember not checking people very much at all. If an opponent is coming straight on, its way better to just steal the puck from them, and you're instantly going the other way now. If you're chasing a player going towards your net, then hook them. The hook will tear the guy down and then also pull the puck back in thenoppoaite direction (so away from your goal). Alternatively if you're in the offensive zone chasong after a puck, the beat move available was the trip. This could also be used in place of the hook for situations described above. While a hook would pull the puck backwards, a trip let the puck continue the path it was already going. So if an opponent was also behind you while you were chasing someone else down, you'd want to trip, not hook. Trips were also crazy quick, unlike hooks & checks, so it was easier to get back in position if you missed.
Really the only time I check people was if I was guarding someone who didnt have the puck. Hot them really quick, then rush the puck carrier for a steal.
Then qhen you had a three goal lead, do whatever you could to prevent shots w/ the above. When you get thebpuck, juat dump it to thenother end of the ice, and try to trip the computer before they get it.
When you do have the puck in the offensive zone you can actually keep thenpuck away from the cpu pretty well with very tight skating movements. The ley was to try and bait them into missing a check. Really tight spin moves were able to work wonders. Eventually you can amass enough shots that the game will let another one in eventually, lol
But yeah, the game would outright cheat. I remember constantly looking at replays in super slowmo and seeing the puck quite clearly headed for a wide open net, only to see it reach an invisible barrier and then teleport right into the possession of the goalie, haha... They really didnt hide the cheating.
I appreciate you giving the hockey games a fair look even if you aren't a hockey fan. I mostly knew about "rubberbanding" programming from racing games but you gave a good explanation here as to other types of games.
I like your story teling thank you man. Keep going man💪
The knockdown animation at 2:31 SLAYED me. 😂
This is a game I grew up playing as a kid. The main theme music….gives me goosebumps..
I’ve just started watching your series. This is addicting as hell. Great content!
This is a great and highly informative series. I love it!
I love thabs take on sports games. Cant wait to see him play a football game.
Gretzky straight up palms the Stanley Cup at the end XD
Good shit haha
Would love to see them one-hand it like this IRL, that thing is heavy af 🤣
Used to only watch your Mario content but I must say I love this video series..! You are doing an amazing job. Thanks for all the entertainment..!
I just caught my first of this series a couple weeks ago and watched all the most recent ones... Now I'm watching from the beginning. I'm excited to have an overview idea of EVERY N64 GAME EVER.
A great friends sleep over game as a kid!
This was one of the greatest games to play with friends. Or maybe it had a sequel, but they were so good.
Looks like a N64 version of my favorite hockey game, NHL Hitz 2002 for Gamecube
Hockey games were always the one type of sports games I liked. Anyone can pick up and play without previously understanding anything about hockey. The more arcadey style games were a lot of fun, and usually I prefer more sim heavy games.
Really fun seeing the differences between these N64 hockey games.
Another Classic on this series
Every day i watch you beating at least one game, awesome channel dude
I love this series!! The N64 was my childhood
Mine was the saturn. I was neglected
This series is so good.
Midway was really innovative with their sports games back in the day. Loved them
The heart of a champion. The grace of a legend 🙌
Wow, Thab is a true hockey buff now!
We need these more often
Most of these games I never played, but I’m really enjoying thab’s analysis anyway.
Loved this game, would play it with my cousin all the time, we are from Mexico and don't have any hockey culture at all, but we would expend hours a week battling each other...
Great work with these videos.
This game was so amazing, such amazing memories!!!
I love how he finds something interesting in even the lackluster titles! Keep up the great work!
hmm rubberbanding might be less exaggerated when the score is high. maybe idk. i remember playing this game as a kid with friends. the multicolored puck looks familiar anyways. i do know i played quite a bit of hockey games, as they were one of the most popular sports games because of the in-game fighting. The best one I remember playing as a kid was Mutant League Hockey for the Sega Genesis. iirc in that game, you could actually kill the players on the other team.
Oh man, you are punching me right in the member berries with this one.
Hockey games for videos 6 & 9 on the playlist. Nice.
This guy is just using his attractiveness and just, addictive voice to fuel his channel.
One of my all time favorite games
i loved this game when it came out. love the n64 growing up. i had the best kid years
This is so unrealistic. There weren't any missing children in the arena.
This was my favorite beat em up as a kid.
Thab for president 2024!
Def played this one quite a bit!
Best thing about Friday :)
This game was the first multiplayer game me and my friends really got into, so this video brought me back. Looking forward to seeing Beast play Major League Baseball with Ken Griffey Jr. (choose the Mariners) as well as NFL Blitz.
Man I played the shit out of Ken Griffey Jr. it was addictive haha such a fun game
@@v1v1dpoker haha same, have you heard of Yerr Out?
This was the first game I got when I got my 64 as a kid, and I noticed the rubber banding when I was 6 years old pissed me off something fierce.
Was one of the first games I played on the N64 when my brothers and I got the console Christmas 96 along with Star Wars Shadows of the Empire.
I heard of S.C.A.R.S. several years ago, but the title didn't tell me anything about how the game was going to be, so I passed on playing it.
Edit: I still don't know what the game is about. I guess I'll stay tuned for another episode.
its a racing game
I highly recommend playing any hockey game with any amount of friends, the older the game the better. My homie and I have been playing NHL 2002 on Xbox since ‘05, mainly because our favorite Mario’s on the cover #LGP. The early 2000s were incredible for EAsports. Tiger Woods ‘03, ‘04....for hrs upon hrs. Would love to see you master 18 at The Predator. You getting excited about a sports game in priceless
NHL 94 on the Sega Genesis
Such a good generation of fun local multiplayer arcade sports games!! I miss it so I'm building a game called HOCKEY HEROES that is an arcade hockey role-playing party game inspired by Gretzky's, HITZ and 94 from that era.
Can't wait for Wayne Gretzky 3d hockey '98 lol
Love this series 😎😎
Played this one so much back in the day lol
Thanks Beast!
I fooking loved this game.
I had Wayne Gretzky 98 and I remember there was a spot you could shoot and it was almost guaranteed to go in regardless of the other team stats or rubber banding
I barely remembered this was one of my first N64 games. I forgot what it was called, but I'll always remember I had a hockey game where you could blow the goalie back and light the net on fire, lol.
love this series so much. even by these crap games =D but i always leave a like for this series
Can't wait to see him play NFL Blitz 🤣
This will now be my go to video to link to when I want to explain what a rubber band is to anyone.
This game is BRUTAL on the hardest difficulty. Amazing game though and nothing like the announcer say "The Sh- IT"S GOOD"
Loved this game. Me and my brothers played it all the time when we were kids. Pretty sure it was our first N64 game along with Mario 64. Should definitely play some multiplayer with buds at some point just for fun.
Love this game! I'm currently building an arcade hockey RPG called HOCKEY HEROES that is inspired by Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey!
Cant wait till vigilante 8 comes up!!
This game in the arcade had a 3D button feature that was super dope.
For those who miss arcade hockey, I recommend trying out Super Blood Hockey.
Super Blood Hockey is great! I'm building an arcade hockey RPG called HOCKEY HEROES and it's number one inspiration is Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey. Power-ups, brick and walls and fire!
I’m not surprised at the rubber banding from this dev. NBA Jam is remembered fondly, but it has HORRIBLE rubber banding too.
I loved this game as a kid!
This is my favorite hockey game ever. Though I do admit I don't have the greatest taste in hockey games. My second favorite is Mario Lemieux on the Genesis. lol Your "rubberband" explanation is how I knew how to always beat my friends in NFL Blitz for the N64. It had the same type of A.I.
If I'm not mistaken, this was a release-day video game for the N64, and I got it because I was a sports fiend. This was the first game where I utilized Nintendo Power magazine to get all the cheat codes, and it was so fun to play this game with tiny bodies and giant heads lol.
I LOVED this game as a kid
I was thinking that this was like NBA Jam for Sega genesis when you mentioned it. Lol
Space Station Silicon Valley was literally the first video game I ever played. I'm also excited to see South Park and the Rugrats game
I know you don't like Hockey based on Breakaway 98, but this is one of the best Hockey games from that era. So much fun.
I totaly forget about S.C.A.R.S. I think i played it on PS1 but i can't really remember this game
this game is so fun 2 vs 2 co-op
Love this game
Hi, I love what you do here. I just found you today and I totally gonna watch all videos👍🏼
Is there any way you could give us your complete list of all games? I’m collecting and every list I find is a bit different. Would be nice thanks
These are amazing thab. I look forward to em and they're an instant click every time.
yoooo this game was a banger! used to play it with all the kids in my neighborhood back in the day. Cant wait til you play Quest 64 and Mischief Makers!
I remember Quest 64 being really difficult and long
@@jdraco1687 it's one of my favorite RPGs of all time. It has a great story and fun battle system. I remember it being pretty long too but I recently beat it during the pandemic after not playing it for years, and it's seemed shorter than I remember, but still an amazing game
This was the first n64 game I played good memories
Extra salty Thab for flavor and preservation
I loved this game as a kid. :D
Marty Reasoner in this game was deadly
"What was he doing before he shot up the school?"
"He was doing livestreams besting every Nintendo 64 game..."
Thanks
I used to play this game just for the fights!
One way to steal a few extra goals is use your AI partners. You can “interfere” with the goalie by running into them on the left, they will push you out of the goal area and open up the right side. Time it just right to get your AI to shoot when the goalie lunges to hit you.
He’s so happy playing this lol
Awww this one seemed kinda fun...too bad about that aggressive rubber banding
this game is cold
The first Ice hockey game on the N64, and an Arcade orientated one. Single player mode is just too limited to be really fun and not repetitive. The real fun part of this game was the 4 player mode. I'd say a nice ice hockey game on the early days of the console but nothing more...
And they r doing all these random dances with the Stanley cup haha
Oh, it's called rubber-banding? My brother and I just called it a built-in handicap mechanic when we played this and NFL Blitz lol - In NFL Blitz, you are more likely to fumble, bobble a pass for an interception by the other team, not be able to tackle as well .. tons of stuff like this game. Interesting that it had an actual name.
My favorite hockey game was NHL HITZ. Played the crap out of that thing, but I don't remember what system it was on lol, might have been PS2 actually
You need to calm down, and take your riddilin. "When I gets a fiddling, I reach for me riddilin" -popeye
As a Pennsylvanian who was born in New York, I appreciate your team choices
The rubber banding is known in nba jam coding. So no surprise it’s in this. Btw the goalie in that game is controllable
NFL Blitz was notorious for this!
Bro they really got Campbell's Chunky in for the sponsor lol
