Spoony's movie vlogs were so great to leave on in another tab as you grinded in a video game. I could listen to him and his brother rip apart the Michael Bay Transformers movies all day. I honestly miss his movie vlogs more than any other of his content.
I did also his Final Fantasy reviews though. I was a bit disappointed that he stormed off and ended the stream when he tried FFXIV because, *gasp*, a fantasy MMO makes you kill weak wildlife at the beggining. The horror.

His good videos are his Phantasmagoria/Ripper lets plays, some early counter monkey stuff, and the earlier Ultima reviews. The ones of the later games suck and him screaming about "Whats a Paladin" for 50% of the review while applying more and more make up is genuinely cringeworthy.

I think it was an overreaction to the Japanese games industry having a harder time transitioning to HD graphics than Western studios. Because the Japanese games industry was having issues, people just opted to say all Japanese games suck (Nintendo sometimes included, sometimes not) and going back retroactively to just make up shit about, say, FF8 or FF10.
The great irony is that looking back to that era, it just kinda sucked for games in general. Both Eastern and Western games kind of sucked overall back then. Some gems obviously stuck out on both sides, but I'd say that was probably the worst era for gaming overall, other than like, the Atari 2600.

What issues? The 2000's were a golden age for Japanese devs.

The 'issues' essentially amounted to game journalists refusing to acknowledge Japanese games as being objectively better than their western counterparts.

The fact that Lara Croft or Crash Bandicoot were ever considered gaming icons should be embarrassing.

Tomb Raider was a groundbreaking game at the time though has not aged well due to it being one of the pioneers of 3D gaming.
Crash Bandicoot is pretty good. Him becoming an icon was just forced because everyone felt like they had to have a mascot to compete with Mario, but the games themselves were still good.

The issues are games like FF13 which was clearly rushed and limited in its scope due to being an HD game. FF13 was the thing that broke a lot of Western fans of Final Fantasy and basically made them all go "Ackshually FF always sucked!!!! (Except FF7 because I grew up with it!)"

His fans are still around and have gotten as much older as he has. I was rewatching his Live Wire of The Quarry from 2023 the other day. He's still good fun even just playing a game casually and ribbing the story. If he started streaming weekly again, not even making scripted videos, I'd watch.

I am not gonna lie: I do not believe Spoony ever really played these games as a kid and likely used a guide to play them when he got older. I think he was just smart enough to realize a retrospective on the daddy of C/WRPGs would make be good content and its downfall would create easy drama and a storyline for it.
The only person I've known who played Ultimate is like 15 years older than Spoony.

As a review it is pretty fucking awful and is clearly just from the perspective of someone who doesn't like JRPGs. It is funny that in retrospect FFX is considered the last of the golden era and the swan song of the series with the best combat and most impressive visuals/CGI that the game has to offer with an absolutely stellar soundtrack.
It absolutely has problems, the game is no perfect, never was, never will be. But the good far outweighs the bad and FFX is an ambitious masterpiece compared to modern FF and most modern JRPGs in general. FFX felt like the last time Square actually fucking tried.

He played them with with his older brother. That, at least, I find fairly believable. He certainly didn't play them again for the actual reviews considering most of them don't feature any footage he himself took.

>The only person I've known who played Ultimate is like 15 years older than Spoony.
I tried playing Ultima and I would describe them as "Interesting conceptually" There are good ideas in there hidden underneath the jank and I don't think it's unfair to argue games like Ultima are the reason why we got stuff like Dragon Quest. However, I don't think that changes the fact the games are always ahead of their time in the worst way possible. Ultima 7 coming out around the same time as Final Fantasy 5 and Dragon Quest 5 is certainly revealing in how much they were on the absolute cutting edge, to be sure. But it also shows that when it comes to actually making games they were insanely backwards and had nothing even resembling design ethos. I mean, I would honestly say Ultima 3-5 had the best combat and that reeks of backhanded compliment I'll admit.

Ultima 9 gets a lot of shit, largely deserved, but at least on a technological level I can't help but find the game at least somewhat admirable. Granted, it was rushed to hell and it shows in how buggy it is, but when it comes to creating a true 3D world it's fairly stunning in what it managed to deliver compared to other games of the era. At the same time, from a design perspective, the thing looked and played humiliatingly poorly and the writing would have been on par with an mid Super Nintendo RPG. Especially considering PC gaming was really starting to find itself during the second half of the nineties.

Agree. It certainly has it's flaws, and a lot of the story is VERY easy and fun to mock, but as a whole I think the game is really good. It's the last Final Fantasy game that feels in any way confident in actually being a RPG. You can tell the merger with Enix really did cause lasting damage.

it was not just the money, it was that retarded joke goal of the Spoony Movie. He could have just said that the movie thing was just a joke and maybe refunded a few donaters. But instead he went full retard and actually thought about doing it, then his already damaged brain went batshit schizo and that's where everything went downhill.

He’s still doing the Nostalgia Critic to this day, although it’s not as elaborate as it used to be. Between Tamara leaving (on good terms, was just time for her to move on), their studio being a piece of shit, and Doug being old and having health issues they can’t do anything elaborate anymore. He’s basically reverted to a more YouTube-friendly version of his original format. Sit in front of a white wall, recap a movie, make some shitty jokes, and occasionally do a short sketch to throw your remaining actors a bone. It’s not bad, we’ll never get anything as embarrassing as The Wall again, but it’s clearly something he stopped caring about a long time ago.

THIS. And I'm not just talking about Spoony's infamous FFX review to be clear, unlike with his contemporaries who either went after objectively bad media or at the very least, heavily flawed media, Spoony was the DarkSydePhil of his community looking back and much like him or Arin Hanson when it comes to 3D Zelda games, it could NEVER be HIS fault he sucks ass at the video game he's "reviewing", oh no, somehow, its the fault of the game designers, somehow its because the game is "poorly designed" or some stupid non-criticism like that. Looking back on Spoony as an adult, I honestly can't believe teenage me clinged onto every word he said back then or really, any "angry" reviewer from back in the day who in hindsight clearly don't know what the fuck they were talking about. https://youtu.be/vgG5QqZUzjY

Spoony was very charismatic and gave off the big brother vibe. I know this because I have an older brother that was already an IT guy in the early 90s. He had a whole wall of boxed software and multiple computers that we could play Doom, C&C etc. together. Spoony gave off that vibe.

I mean, even the devs admitted they were forced to throw it in at the last minute, I'm not going to argue that and yeah, it is especially kind of bullshit if you don't make a Melee Weapons/Unarmed build or at least have either as one of your tagged skills, but the point still stands that Spoony was and still is the DarkSydePhil of "angry reviewers" in a lot of ways.

Brad Jones is still putting out content. I only rewatch the Cinema Snob episodes up until he moves into the new house, but there are some modern episodes like the christploitation movies that I enjoy. He always seemed the most normal of the TGWTG bunch which is probably why he avoided doing as many crossovers/promotions for the site as the other reviewers did.

because later on down the lines much worse movies (the sequels) came out. same with FF8 because everything after FFX has been a disaster. if they kept the same quality level up of course people would still shit on FF8, but the problems with its story pale in comparison to shit like FFXII having no relatable characters and no story worth getting invested in because it's all about esoteric political drama that none of the main characters (Vaan and Penelo) have any actual link to.

FF8 had its critics, but so did FF7. The game was beloved upon release for the most part. In retrospect the game became more divisive because the leveling system is bad, but the story is probably the best out of the golden era FF games. Squall is the strongest protagonist with the clearest character arc. The world design is top notch. However, while the story is the strongest, it does have problems near the end and gets confused. There are some unresolved plot threads.
It feels like the most ambitious FF game and you can tell they bit off more than they could chew because FF9 and FF10 were a little more toned down for better and worse. I love FF8 but will always admit the big issues it has while simultaneously singing its praises. It is genuinely a mixed bag, not in that it is mediocre, in that it has amazing and bad elements.
There is also the issue that the translation of FF8 is a mixed bad and no one is willing to give it the benefit of the doubt. Meanwhile FF7 fans will deflect all criticism on its translation, which is also not that great.

But Spoony was just a JAPANESE GAME BAD guy for the longest time. If it was not a game he played as a kid, and it was Japanese, he went in wanting to hate it because hating on Japanese stuff was cool at the time. Nearly every creator went through that period and it is rightfully considered outdated and cringy because it is. FF8, 9, and 10 are better than 95% of western games AND japanese games. Despite their flaws at least they are fucking ambitious. I'll take an ambitious mess over the West cranking out mediocre mascot platformers or terrible brown and bloom call of duty/gears clones.

FF9 is good, but it stands out the least to me from the 6-10 golden era. I still like it a lot though. It doesn't feel like it has that signature style or voice that I associate with the other games. It is much more generic fantasy, which is likable in its own way, but compared to the others it is less compelling. Vivi is genuinely one of my favorite Final Fantasy characters though.

Maybe a handful of people didn’t like something about the movie but a majority of people loved it. It wasnt until a fat alcoholic Star Trek fan from the Midwest made a YouTube video with his 2 loser buddies bashing The Phantom Menace that the WHOLE WORLD decided to hate the film.”
