Larion just accidentally humiliated all the AAA studios by showing that you CAN still make an amazing AAA game experience without all the predatory monetary BS. Funny how if you design your game to be a great game, instead of designing them to be big money makers, it turns out to be great game!
And I loved how all the devs from the big studios took to twitter to try and explain why Larion is definitely a unique case and we should not expect anyone else be able to make good stuff. Boom, clueless self-burn!

I personally still remember the story mode of COD 1 and COD 2, it was really good, one of a kind and I could feel the quality, passion and fun when I played it. Oh boy, how things are changed. only to get more dollars from the playerbase. This is what happens when tech in general advances way, way too fast. Activision saw the dollars, Activision conquered the developers, Activision rules. Only part is missing now is their downfall. Pretty sure it will eventually happen, they always do.

Ghost Recon: Wildlands had an easter egg similar to Splinter Cell. When returning from a mission with Sam, during a cutscene Sam and a female NPC will strike up a conversation about him being the last of his kind (Stealth Games. He mentions that there was another person who wore a bandana to which the female replies that he retired prompting Sam to say; Then it's only me.

You also had a Tanner in GTA 3 (undercover cop, who was a driver for the Yakuza) and was given a female running animation.
Mission info:
Our source in the police has informed us that one of our drivers is a strangely animated undercover cop! He's more or less useless out of his car, so we've tagged it with a tracer. Make him bleed! Asuka Kasen

Another jab worth mentioning in GTA San Andreas is how throughout the state you could find billboard signs that read Get rid of rubbish fast! TrueGrime Street Cleaners in the TrueCrime font, which was a popular but short-lived game series at the time that had a similar GTA engine

Problem with the Serious Sam reference in Duke Nukem. That's the 20th Anniversary edition as Serious Sam didn't exist when the original Duke 3D first came out. Also in Serious Sam 2, there is a scene in between planets where the aliens complain about the blonde guy that took forever.

i love when games give loving homages or easter eggs to games from other studios. off the top of my head, i always think about the subtle but very sweet homage to ghost of tsushima in forbidden west that also doubled as a memorial for a dev who passed away

I don't think you mentioned the floaties that Timmy Vertuccelli had. In Vice City, you couldn't swim, in Driv3r you could, so the floaties were kind of another way to poke fun at Tommy for that! I think that's the funniest part of the Tommy Vercetti spoof.

SteamWorld Dig also had a HL3 joke. There was a hidden little cave with a broken down store with half life 3 signs on the walls and then there were dead skeletons outside waiting in the line to get in. Pretty funny

Why do you keep making these dumb silly videos instead of reviewing Pikmin 4, Amnesia the Bunker, Age of Wonders 4, Advance Wars 1 + 2: Re-Boot Camp, Metroid Prime Remastered, Octopath Traveler 2, etc?

How in the hell did I miss duty calls? I loved bullet storm when it came out and cannot wait for it to come out in VR but I'm disappointed that I never knew about this and hope I can find it

You should do a video on the from the creators of curse.
Back 4 blood, outer worlds etc. Always try to tie their marketing to prior successful games and never live up to the hype

We all laugh at these things and talk about look at how dumb and goofy this is, but at the same time, it's actually pretty interesting video game history.
+1 for the archivists

I don t think duke nukem forever was bad, I think it was a little too late. If this game came out around the time the other games came out it would have been regarded a lot better.

Italian here. Why do you think it's rude? Vermicelli is actually a real Italian surname, it's not just the Pasta, lol. Don't fall for the ''I'm so offended'' fashion trend, dude.

I'm not sure if it's a jab or just an Easter Egg but in Elfheim in FF I there is a grave saying Here lies Link. or Here lies Erdrick. depending on what version of you're playing.
