#Thabeast #BeatingEveryN64Game #Superman64 - Hry
I remember going to buy a new game for my N64 when I was a kid. I was considering buying Superman 64, but the dude working at the store advised against it and recommended Gex 64 instead. Wish I could meet this man again and shake his hand.
A true hero of his time.
Bruh! I rented this from Indian back in the day as a kid remember renting this POS and not being able to rent one again after a month cuz my parents only let me rent one once a month.
I do what I can. You're welcome.
He loses points for recommending Gex though
@@TheMagicianBee The store had a small collection.:p Anyway, I loved Gex back then. I have some nostalgia for it, and recently played it again. I think it's still fun
The funniest part is that Superman just hands over Darkseid, one of the strongest villains in history, over to the police.
I was thinking the same thing. A literal god in the hands of the police lol.
He’s literally the inspiration for Thanos, and here he is just going to the slammer lol
@@MrZachtheKingsfan It is still insane Jack Kirby went straight from making the penultimate Marvel/Avengers villain (Galactus) to the penultimate DC/Justice League villain (Darkseid).
It's like the old Fantastic Four cartoon where the police arrest Magneto and take him away, or the Spidey Super Stories comic where the police arrest Thanos.
I'm old enough to remember when this game came out and the ridicule it received. In 20+ years I've never seen footage of this game past the first set of ring missions and now this guy completes the entire game... Well done my friend, well done.
Well, not the ENTIRE game... but far enough.
@@shostako1284 sometimes we beat the game, sometimes the game beats us.
I remember seeing this as a kid, who was a huge Spiderman fan and had the game, and being incredibly envious of my friend who had it because it looked to me to be a completely open world and my dumb Spiderman game only let you swing from rooftops. Boy am I grateful now.
Originally, this game was supposed to have destructible environments and stuff. The story of why it sucks is interesting: basically, the DC team decided it would be better to give Superman to EA but couldn't break the contract that had already been established, so they did everything else they could to knee-cap the game in order to try to make the devs give up, but the devs persevered and got paid.
Henry Cavill's acting ability has greatly improved since this performance.
"capture darkseid and bring him to the cops" lmaooo. "Multidimensional evil super being miraculously breaks handcuffs. Escapes MCPD, proceeds to destroy city."
Yeah... like what are they supposed to do once he wakes up? Apart from dying that is lol
Thanos got arrested at one point so this is funny
You can tell that the devs didn't know the lore that well lol
@2:30 "I'm not sure what Lex Luthor thinks a maze is, but this sure isn't it" 😂 The deadpan delivery!
That 5 Gum edit. These keep getting better and better.
I love how quickly the optimism turned to "this game kinda sucks" 4 minutes into the video. Really enjoying all this content man, your determination is incredible
Imagine after developing the first 5 mazes and level, they really thought to themselves, "yeah this works, let's keep going like this"
theres a video on yt with devs that shows how corporate completely destroyed development of this game and it really makes sense
Lol
I always assumed it was more likely that some guy in a suit said “Right, we need 20 levels and they’ve gotta be ready by next week. Get going, boys.” I’m sure they did their best with what they had.
@@worldsboss that is exactly what happened . The one developer was working on another project and was thrown on this because of the release of the new movie it was literally developed in hours. There are alot of mini documentaries on it
@@ptravers9077 I hope that one day somebody picks this game back up and finishes it. With the way the modding community flocks to N64 games, it’s gotta happen eventually, right?
"Bring Darkseid to the police." - LOL
I've always liked watching others play this game. I give it a 10 out of 10 for watchablity.
8:07 That's not Lex at the top of the building. It's Brainiac.
Love how chat even said it
Brainiac is a better villain anyway. He’s essentially Ultron if he was smart.
I just spat my water out because I was not ready for that 5 Gum edit.
Then there's no time to waste.
Shoutouts to ProtonJon, who's still working on beating this game over a decade later. That takes some guts and dedication considering how horrid the game is.
I was waiting for this. Didn't expect it so early tho 😂
8:20 that was Brainiac. Another foe in Superman’s rogue gallery.
I remember renting this game at blockbuster as a kid, playing it for all of 5 minutes before returning. deep down I was always curious if I missed out. I did not. thank you for your service.
You deserve a prize for playing this game, jesus! I couldn't play this for 10 minutes when i was a child 😖
okay, i was kinda on the fence about watching these glad im over the fence now giving it a like hope to see MANY MORE!
this is awesome because instead of showing off a collection you're actually playing all of the games; surely most collectors have never finished some of the more obscure and mediocre titles, but you , man, you can give your honest thoughts on all of these games; that's really impressive and a good resource for people reminiscing on a specific game from their childhood
Your ability to calmly decipher the meaninglessness of Superman 64 is commendable. You should be awarded all the unsold carts of this game, which aren’t few.
I've never seen anything like this feels like you grabbed the idea behind those smm runs where you forgot to put the mic and added to it. The commentary and game analysis was hilarious! Keep content like this coming! I watched twice!
How it feels to solve 5 mazes LUL
I've been looking forward for this, thanks Beast! Love your content!
This was THE game I was waiting for! Glad you were open-minded about it.
this is one of the best series ever lolol Thanks for making these youtube cuts!!
This is by far the most hilarious video of the series yet! I couldnt stop laughing hahaha Just great man! Big hugh!
this game is a-maze-ing
you have to admire the cops willing to dare restrain Darkseid
I'm a new subscriber, probably not in your main demographic because of 35, and to anyone in generation z that means I'm 100. I have to say, I like your content and I got hooked watching you try to beat all of these N64 games, I have to say you are funny, and not Gen z funny but actually funny and such a natural when it comes to narrating and playing etc. It's nice to see younger kids respecting and appreciating other generations of consoles. I can tell that you're not super comfortable in front of the camera all of the time so I'm sure you hate public speaking but you do a great job. I hope your page blows up. I was thinking about the massive amounts of time in work you must have to put into playing and streaming and editing and doing all of that just to entertain idiots like us and it doesn't go unnoticed. Nice work
Love this concept of beating every N64 games. If someone can do it, it's the Beast! Good luck on your journey, I'm sure be following up every episode. Well done with the Superman game wow... I also like the fact that there is a timer for each game, and an overall timer. Ah yeah and the teaser at the end is a nice touch :)
Please keep this series going - I watched about 10 and then started right form the beginning. I wouldn't be surprised if you double/tripled your subs by then end - these are top quality!
This is by far my favourite series, and i never even played a N64 game
Was expecting more "You guessed it, another [insert monotonous task]." Regardless, love the series and how well it's done (e.g. your excellent play-by-play voice over, the editing and expressing your very unbiased likes and dislikes). You have my upmost respect for taking on this challenge and I honestly can't wait for more! Keep up the good work, sir.
Love the series! Can’t wait to see a good game next time! Either way, good or bad game, your commentary is always amazing!
You are really good my friend. You’ll get tons of viewers soon, keep working for it. Cheers !
The cut to "*how it feels to solve 5 mazes*"at 13:07 was so surprising and funny I had to rewind it a few times.
I love this series and commentary. Imagine watching this whole series in a couple years time.
Just started today
My favorite part of this is that Darkseid... the god-like evil emperor of the universe and one of the few villians that even at full power gives superman a run for his money, just give him to the police. No big deal.
Commentary is on point, you are doing an amazing job, keep it up!
Thanks for the preview! Really adds to the series
I enjoyed this alot more than I thought I would. I like its cut very well and not stupid long. Good job bro
Kinda weird thinking that this series will take 8 years to complete, at least on CZcams with 1 game per week
Lets predict how many hours it will take him, ill go for: 2955 hours

What I appreciate the most about your channel is that I was thinking of getting an n64 again to play all the games I missed, now I won't need to as this playlist reveals everything I didn't get a chance to play. Noice!
I love this series. This episode was hilarious. Thanks for the videos Thab
I've always heard this game was bad but no one has ever explained to me in detail WHY the gameplay was bad. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this playthrough even if you didn't enjoy playing it 😅
Look up Let's Play Superman by Proton Jon. It's an extremely good series by a good who's a fucking EXPERT at the game. You will learn a lot about it. He goes in depth into the history of the game and even interviews a developer at one point. It's the best Let's Play series ever.
@@j_c_93 the longest let’s play ever as well
Check out angry video game nerds video on it
Darkseid is basically the Thanos of DC so seeing him thrown around and carried to the police by Superman is the equivalent to seeing Thor pick Thanos up and send him to jail.
The cheery way you said, "5 more mazes and onto the next level!" Juxtaposed to AVGN reaction, "MORE F$&#ING MAZES!?!?!"
I have not seen or heard of this game until this video! Another rough one man 😂 enjoyed!
Honestly, cudos to you for even having the endurance to play through the whole game. I was expecting you to abort this playthrough^^
Holy crap that gum edit was hilarious 😂 S Tier
I don't know what is more varied in this series, the games, or your hair styles.
It was awesome watching someone actually suffer through this mess. I’ve only seen brief maze clips about how awful this game was.
"how it feels to solve 5 mazes" that was a very good bit.
I literally LOLd so many times watching this 😂😂😂 So excited to see the other games!
This is a great series dude. Brutal but great 👌
Just found this series. Awesome nostalgia. Looking forward to the journey.
I admire how determined you are. I like how thorough the playthrough is.
I severely dislike having to fly through hoops.
Thanks for the legitimate review Thab
Makes Daikatana look like game of the century.
Yessss. I've been waiting for this one
Thab: complains about game
AVGN(somewhere): Fuck that game, watch it go!
Wow, so I’ve already seen some of your videos in the series, so I knew you actually finished this XD I can’t believe you got this at number 6, this has to be your biggest challenge. It’s all downhill from here brother
I can’t believe you had the patients to complete this game. Truly impressive.
I like that you included the clip of game selection. It adds some fun flavour.
The logo intro was amazing. Loved it
You are crazy playing that miserable game :D I like you series, keep on going!
I had this game and never made it past the first indoor level. Only Thab could suffer through this game without throwing it across the room. Thank you
Haha this is astounding. I can’t believe you played this. GG
I'm pretty sure you deserve a medal of honor for playing this game. Oh boy, what a disaster of a game!
You're really hitting your stride on this series man.
LOL that gum edit, hilarious thab
Wow I can't believe this randomly popped up at 7 lol can't wait to watch you play it !
Really thought I was just going to watch the good games for nostalgia but this was hilarious. Guess I'm watching all of them! 😂
I can't believe you actually played through that entire game. Props. That looked horrible. Wave 64 will brighten your mood though. Such a great game that was. That might be the first classic you're playing on this.
"First classic"
The first 2 videos were dk and Diddy Kong racing bro
@@kailynx2295 Was about to say. I pity the fool that missed Diddy Kong Racing from their childhood.
Love the channel bro
When I saw this series, my first thought was: "Oh God, he has to play that awful Superman 64 game at some point". At least it's out of the way now.
This is an EPIC series. And of out of all the games on the N64 you get Superman 64.
XD
I remember a kid who loved star wing on the SNES and his mom got him this and a N64 for Xmas lol
Only now after seeing your video do I recall having finished this game in my childhood. Source of ptsd discovered.
Does this world truly deserve this hero? Thanks for doing this series!
This is what ive been waiting for
You're a legend, mate!
It's funny that the ring levels are called mazes even though you just go through a linear sequence of rings, but the other levels are actually like mazes.
Super fun to watch
Had this game. I remember being so excited to play. Then I put it in and couldn’t figure out what to do after flying through the very first “Maze”. I never figured it out
Now I know why I don’t find this game used anywhere. Thanks for saving me this painfull game
That 5 gum clip got me good, congrats you got a new sub in me
Superman just flying into and carrying Darkseid over his head to that ridiculous music is one of the funniest things I've seen in a good while!
I'm sorry to say it, but if Thab ever does revisit some of these games to 100% them, I'll be rooting for Superman 64 to be first in queue.
I rented this game. It was so damn bad as a kid I couldn’t do it. Kudos for taking this on.
Keep up the great work!
You manage to transform something painful in funny with this game. Congrats. Loved the crab fight. Don't ever finish the Hard mode. the developer do not deserve it
I'm loving that THAB intro
Excellent vids brother. I’m a quarter ways through.
When I was a kid I could never get past the first maze. I always wondered what was passed it. Thanks for finally answering that question for me.
Lmao, I've been watching the whole series from the start recently... It was pretty funny seeing you play a horrible game, but still try to be pleasant about about it. :P
I'm actually morbidly curious to see an actual full playthrough of this game because I never experienced it IRL and I always thought "it can't be THAT boring, shallow, and horrible the entire time can it??" Mr. Thabeast will finally show me !
Good God... Truly, a hellish torment. I can't believe you completed this
I laughed out loud throughout this entire video😂
