I __LOVED__ video power as a kid. I watched it as much as I could and really wanted to be on the show. The best part was at the end when the kids ran all over the place and grabbed whatever games they could. I always dreamed about how awesome that would be to be able to grab as many games as possible.

Watching this show is something else, I had the intro memorized and wow it's got that incredible 90's rap thing going for it.

Word.

I wonder if this guy was hyped on Coffee, he is really amped for each take. Never really noticed that as a kid, I was just really excited to be watching it.

They guy with the guitar isn't actually playing it. The music is all beats and keyboards. He looks "Polly Shore Amazing" holding that guitar though.

This is so incredibly 90s. I had forgotten this show existed. I wanted to go through that course and grab games. I remember as a kid being annoyed with kids getting terrible games and passing up great ones. At least the winner in this one got Duck Tales and Batman, two of the best.

As for "hyped on coffee"-- I'm thinking another word that starts with C. They cut out all the times he rubbed his nose or sniffed. This was the early 90s after all, everyone was doing it :D

The commercials in this are amazing. I remember some of them. That Honey Nut Cheerios commercial hit me right in the nostalgia.

And wow, the "fashion" choices, and the 90s mullets.

I was a 90s kid, basically. Born in 81, but I came into who I am in the 90s, and feel the most attachment to that decade. It doesn't seem that long ago, but things like this show just how far back that was.

Huh, I wonder if this was the start of eSports.

I think it could have been an early start to eSports and I think the Wizard and the Nintendo World Championships really helped that along for sure.

Having the commercials really does make this video something very special, I remember many of these. I always thought that eastport pack was something really cool but it was just a bag that had a Gameboy in it.

Yeah, ASMR videos are just creepy to me. It's like something out of a nightmare.

For more about what we're talking about, if you aren't in the know:

This is 99 cents on iOS and I just picked it up. If you can get it for a buck, I seriously recommend it.

The tutorial is very good and it's not too hard, but don't let it fool you, normal is much more difficult. After a couple games I got the hang of things and generally lost under two scenarios: 1. I killed everyone except a couple people in some countries(I wasn't strong enough to infect) or 2. I infected everyone on earth but my disease wasn't strong enough to kill everyone before they found a cure.

Finding that balance is a fun thing to figure out and I finally did and my disease "Sauron" wiped out everyone on earth, so yay! It unlocked a new game mode and a special ability and it seems the more I win the more I unlock. This is available on Steam and is $15 and seems to be the same game, but I am not really sure about that entirely.

Well worth a dollar if you are looking for a very fun strategy game where each game lasts a handful of minutes.

Whoa, they're adding new locations without charging for an expansion, that's great post-launch support. I wonder if it's a teaser for the next expansion.

I guess we can expect one new class and act, since that's what RoS added.

They said early on they were planning on two expansions.

I've never heard anyone call the female Demon Hunter a "Huntress" before :D

Greyhallow is a big area but it's not huge. You can get through it all pretty quick.

" I'd also like to know what you think of them and if they have "special features"

Yes they do, some of them. The Steam store page will tell you. Like magic boosters, etc. in Final Fantasy VII and VIII.

Also that processor for "recommended" is insane for this. There's a world of difference between the minimum and recommended CPU. If you need an i5 to max out a port of a game that came out that long ago, there are some issues in the porting process. I imagine it's not accurate and is the CYA stuff that everyone seems to put into system recommendations.

I won't get IX for a while. I'll wait for a sale.

I have VII and VIII on Steam but never played them. Though I did dust off my original Final Fantasy VII PC release and install it last year with a graphics mod, just to check it out. Didn't play much.

People consider VII to be one of the best games of all time. It might be but I've never played it. Like Adam said the graphics in my eye don't translate as well as 2D pixels do now. It's in that original PlayStation graphics zone where early 3D was great for the time but not as timeless for me.

That said I want to play VII at some point just to see what it's all about.

People harshed on the 64 at the time compare to this PlayStation but I think the graphics of that system due to its space limitations means the games hold up far better.

Yeah, VIII works much better these days on my eyes. IX would probably be even better.

But we have a VII remake to look forward to!

Wow my second comment there is horribly written. Don't comment and phone kids!

> And Jon, I didn't think it was possible to have a lower view of you, but you just successfully lowered yourself with that horribly written comment. I judge you.

I only have three of them, 7, 8 and 13. There are way more on Steam, I hardly own almost every one, though I'd like to have more.

But I've only played a bit of VIII and I don't remember it well. I do remember thinking it looked better, but I didn't play much.

(I've played all three elsewhere, though, I just got them on Steam for future-proofing)

Spoiler alert: The steam store page has screenshots and features, so you can see "high-definition movies and character models" as one of the features, and then look at the screenshots to confirm it. :D

So yep, IX did too.

Yep, it's out and seems to be getting really great reviews!

Recently I started Final Fantasy VI and it's been very fun.

Wow, this is incredible! Well done, scrypt!
