What are some games you feel or overlooked, underrated, or just need more love?

I love the ending skit for this one!

Hybrid Heaven is the strangest game I've ever had the privilege to play. It's almost like the game designer had three ideas (Rpg, fighting game and survival action) and didn't know which one to focus on. Normally this would be a death sentence for a game but somehow they managed to make it work.

"We LOVE Parallax Scrolling!" Yeah we do! WELCOME BACK!

Oh man, that 8 mega power-song that came out of nowhere really cracked me up. Also, big plus for the phrase "out dicking around like an idiot" lol

I just have to say that I realy appreciate Joe's consistancy in regards to upload-time. I can safely assume that each new episode will be uploaded at the exact same time each Sunday morning (European time) to the second, without fail. It's these little things that elevate this channel above many others.

"don't overlook it unless you just rather not have fun, and i know some of you don't like fun especially if it's not on your favourite console" You said everything!

"Dave White Forever: The Exasperated But Not Quite Angry Edition" is the black sheep of the series and criminally overlooked.

The Sack is Back!

9:37 Master of Monsters looks really cool! Can't believe this was never on my radar!

That's easily my favorite skit to date. Thanks for another solid video.

Me, seeing new Game Sack: KZfaq: We happy? Yeah, we happy.

I love how Joe is basically like "you suck if you don't like these games" and I'm like "I barely knew about most of these in the first place, gimme a break!" and Joe's like "okay" because he's a decent human being. At least, he seems like a decent human being. I could be wrong.

Master Of Monsters is one of my favorite Genesis games. The soundtrack is beautiful and really fits the game nicely.

Game Sack is my favorite game reviewer

There should be an extended version of the 8 mega power song, it was really good haha.

Bomberman Hero is my favorite in the series. Glad to see it get some recognition.

the 80s power metal vocals rock lol

Master of Monsters is absolutely worth playing for the music alone, might even be a top 5 soundtrack on that system. Sakimoto was pumping out some absolute bangers in the 16bit era. And while I'm on the subject of music, I find it interesting that the Bomberman franchise completely embraced Jungle and Drum & Bass for a while.

Master of Monsters looks like one of those rare games on the system that just stood out but sadly didn't get a lot of traction. Quite liked your bit at the end as it was the game that caught my attention most and it actually looks really good. Shame about the arbitrary turn number. The N64 was a great console, it's just a shame Silent Hill came out on the ps1 and revolutionized fog-based graphics forever. Completely spoiling us. Great episode, Joe. Thanks again for making my sunday breakfasts enjoyable.

Great video, Joe. 10/10 work. Now that I've commented for the algorithm, time to actually watch the video.

Starting off with Atomic Runner! Nice. That 8 mega power song was freaking hysterical 😅

"And I know some of you don't like fun." Sadly, though, it's true. Nowadays, it's more about being competitive and trying to prove something. Fun has left the building.

scientists: computing fog simulations is too hard! n64: hold my controller pak

Lord Monarch for the Mega Drive is a knockout game nobody talks about.

Right off the bat, Atomic Runner is most definitely a gem.

Funny thing I've actually encountered a Cosmo Gang redemption game once. It's basically the same as the bonus levels in Cosmo Gang The Video with the differences being you have a pivoting gun, its two players, and you had to hit a light sensor in their mouths. Still it is fun to see that mechanical wonder.

Thanks for great list of games🎉. My suggestion for next will be: -Sylvan Tale - Game Gear. Recently played this japan exclusive title with fan english translation and this is BRILLIANT. This game is an top-down Zelda-like action RPG that has transformation mechanic like WonderBoy III and really good SN76489 tunes. -Nadia and the Secret of Blue Water - Sega Mega Drive. Also japan exclusive title with fan translation. This was the game based on anime series but have story difference's because uses some older scripts and released before anime ends. Gameplay is some mix of RPG and Quest genres. -Urusei Yatsura:Dear My Friends - Sega CD. Also japan exclusive but recently was translated. This is really fun point-and-click quest based on very popular anime. And made by GameArts! Despite that, I don't hear people even mention this game. But it really worth it so check it out.

As a serial jaywalker, I feel I should apologize for overlooking these games.

Great video Joe, glad to have GS episodes during Sunday

You know a vertical shooter has to be something special when even joe loves it

8 mega power 😂 loved it Joe

Always ready for some more sack!

The N64 skit had me rollin! Always stay til the end. Joe, you rock!

Warriors on the the PS2. 100% overlooked and 100% amazing

That 8 megas metal bit was gold

Love the fog coming out of your shirt and the little puff at the end, ha ha.

New game sack on forth of July weekend is a perfect addition to it.

The rocking "8 mega power. Kind of a lot for a game like this!" Was amazing. I wanna know how you did that. Heh.

wow! the new fog 64 skit might be my new favorite ending skit of all time. i was dying. so true as well!

Great stuff. Joe is knocking it out of the park once again. Cheers, Joe, for all your hard work as it's greatly appreciated by myself and many others.

Ah, Galaga '88 is my jam. I played the heck out of it in our Namco Museum collection, but a couple years back I discovered my uncle had it on an arcade machine.

Nice job with the Octopath Traveler music at the end there! Criminally underrated soundtrack that one!

Great ending skit, as usual :)

bloody hell Joe. Nearly clocked galaga so hard you were almost visited by aliens and dragged into the last Starfighter.

Always love the "Hidden Gems" videos.

I've been playing Atomic Runner a lot these days, and I agree it's awesome in every aspect. It's shocking that everyone seems to ignore it even exists.

What better way to start your Sunday, than with a Game Sack episode. I love Atomic Runner, but it's hard as balls.

I love this channel I almost consider removing ad blocker just to support y'all

Great, now that 8 mega power song is going to be stuck in my head all week.

Oh damn, the eight meg song is a banger. Crossfire! You'll get caught up in the... crossfire!

Great selection of games.

Criminally overlooked games I like a lot: - Ganbare Goemon 2, 3 and 4 on the Super Famicom - Gundam Wing Endless Duel on Super Famicom - Marvel Superheroes War of the Gems on SNES. - Ghost Sweeper Mikami on Super Famicom.

I got so excited when I saw Hybrid Heaven on the screen in the intro; such an incredible game!

Yeah Joe! Hello and Welcome to Game Sack!!!

He said KOJIMA. now I have to play it.

Hahaha! That n64 ad at the end was perfect! I felt the same way back when the thing came out!

“Man, I wish nobody talked about games ever. That sure would make this hobby a lot easier to gatekeep.” LOL

Joe, you should release these sketches as a combined video! This N64 one is amazing! You're a great comedic writer!

Awesome, straightforward content as always, keep ‘em coming Joe!

"I like parallax scrolling" is the same as "Kel loves orange soda"

Hybrid Heaven is one of my favorite RPG’s of all time. So underrated.

Yet another banger video, this time with an '8 Mega Power!' theme song! And that skit at the end.... priceless. Thanks for still making these videos, I've been enjoying them for the past 13 years you've been doing this.

New sack!

Nintendo 64 had realism down and you only realize this as you get older and start seeing foggy and blurry.

Yo Joe, can you maybe include some underrated Neo Geo games in future episodes of this?

"We're over that nonsense now, we just want good games!" Amen brother!

We are going to need a full version of the Mega-Power song.

Ending skit is great, just like the last episode. Always a good watch; thanks Joe!

Love your work, Joe! This is just amazing. The amount of effort you put into your videos is just unbelievable! The ending skit was really fun. The day there's a new Gamesack episode is the best day of the week! Also, somehow I thought that the Sega Genesis' version of Atomic Runner is an inferior arcade port. Now I know it's anything but. It's time to play it, thanks!

Hell yeah, always good to see more love for Bomberman Hero. I'll have to try Thunderstrike with the Mission Stick.

That 8 Megapower song was hilariously epic haha!

That ending skit 🤣

24:39 It's true, muddy graphics and colours WERE the future! ...unfortunately.

Fog bit at the end is icing on the cake

At the end when he says wow blowing smoke out is priceless. It's 6 in the morning. I burst out laughing

seriously, thank you so much for making these videos. its interesting to me and i like your opinions. getting me through so extremely hard times right now, keep rockin!!

Some great picks in this one! I hosted score competitions for both Chelnov and Galaga 90 in the past year. Will definitely be revisiting both of them for future challenges on the arcade versions

Fog simulator was kinda cool for a while. It reminds me of around 2007 when game developers thought Bloom was all the rage. I couldn't play games with it blurring the screen for it would bother my eyes. In the way it was often implemented it was too constant as if they wanted you to know what it's like to have cloudy vision problems.

Atomic Runner looks incredible imo. The devs used a ton of real world examples of ancient civilizations and they nailed it.

game sack video time to stop what I'm doing and watch

Great video, Joe. Remember: all is well that ends well.

It is always a pleasure opening the KZfaq app and see a new Game Sack video 😉

These videos have a tendency to show up at the precise moment I'm in the mood for one.

I am ashamed of myself for not knowing about these games...

Overlooked game on the Genesis: Granada. I think most retro gaming and shooter enthusiasts will be familiar with it, but the general gaming audience has probably never heard of it. Truly a legendary shooter IMO.

Finally a shoutout to Bomberman Hero!! I’ve spent so many hours playing this game. The soundtrack is perfection.

Vasteel on the PC Engine/ TG16. It's a great strategy combat hybrid with cinematics. You pick different types of mechs, each with strengths and weaknesses and geared to specific types of terrain. The terrain also offers penalties or bonuses. And when units engage, it becomes a combat/ action game where your unit gains bonuses or penalties from the terrain. The graphics are fairly well done and the gameplay doesn't take a lot to just pick up and learn. I know Military Madness gets all the glory as the best strategy game for the PCE/ TG16 but Vasteel definitely deserves an honorable mention.

I always forget Bomberman suppose to be a Robot like Mega Man, not some weird alien who love blow up everything.

I love when you talk about hidden gems

Bio hazard battle on genesis/megadrive should be a great overlooked game in the next episode ☺

Great video Nice job with no spoilers on Hybrid Heaven The Fog in the skit lol Funny thing is I think it helps with the setting and mystery of Turok.

Joe needs to give us an episode all about games with parallax scrolling!

Bomberman Hero is one of my favorite games on the N64. You can't beat sitting in your room under the glow of the CRT trying to find everything before you have to return it to the video rental store. Top tier.

Bomberman Hero is great. For the N64, I'd also say the Goemon games are great. And Tetrisphere. But I always talk about Tetrisphere.

Glad to have another entry in the Overlooked Games series, these are some of my favorites videos of Game Sack.

Hybrid Heaven is PHENOMENAL!!!! The boss theme "Fight Hard!" is otherworldly!

Atomic Runner was at our local rental shop and was one that my friend and I frequently rented working our way through it. I was excited when it showed up on genesis mini 2 as I had forgotten how much I loved that game.

I been binge watching Game Sack the past week so it's nice to see a new upload. Cheers

Man atomic runner was a game I always forget about even though I played it a ton. Its just there was so much good stuff out.
