every time I see Dreamcast fmv I keep expecting to see "Don't Shoot!" blinking on the bottom.

This game looks like they got the people that worked on Bust-a-Groove and NiGHTS into Dreams and forced them to make a Dino Crisis / Resident Evil clone.

actually the Christmas aesthetic was a great call for a horror game because I immediately felt like I had lost my mind

Fun fact; Eliot is voiced by Ryan Drummond, the Sonic Adventure-era voice of Sonic, and Dogs is voiced by the late great Deem Bristow, the Sonic Adventure-era voice of Eggman!

"Yeah! I got a Hassy!" Me: instant Illbleed flashbacks

I said this when another streamer played this just a few days ago, and I gotta say it again: This is the Dreamcastiest Dreamcast game that ever Dreamcasted.

Oh man I'd love to see a full LP of this, or Illbleed... both, actually

If you save the guy in the shuttle, you get a napalm gun. It makes early boss fights a lot easier.

“Punching and looking. That’s all you need to get through life.” Matt’s life lessons for life.

>"Please tell me there's a dinosaur" >Immediately followed by the Activision logo Well, they _are_ the oldest contiguous video game company, so I guess that counts?

I'm glad this went as far as Christmas town. I remember the tonal whiplash with what was already a tonally inconsistent experience. If you spend the time to collect the stamps and grind money you get some pretty absurd weapons like the laser blade early on.

I’m from yucatan... shame there’s no dinosaur island here. Btw my city is under the sea in that map apparently

Can we get more Blue Stinger?? This game brings back all the nostalgia of bad voice acting and weird narrative tone problems. Still damn fun to play, though.

Blue Stinger is so bad its great. The supermarket christmas song will be burned into my brain for all time.

Do illbleed next, it's basically this game's spiritual successor

The graphics in this look like they aged decently well. They’re not exactly gorgeous but, they’re not too smudged or blocky like many of the time. It legit looks like it would still be fun to play.

This game needs to be included in the Dreamcast mini

I remember playing this as a kid cuz I was like cool a mature rated game, then I went back to Sonic adventure

Yeah, the music is so, so weird lol. It's good quality music but WTF is going on? Also, I really wish Dreamcast was more successful and maybe we'd have a Dreamcast 3 releasing this year.

I'm SO happy to see you playing this. The greatest survival horror Christmas game of all time with the greatest Christmas soundtrack of all time

The only thing annoying me about this game is the fact “Elliots” named is spelled with one ‘L’ !

"My name's Eliot. I'm bi and I'm on vacation".

A sandwich costs more then a magazine of bullets.

Hell yeah! The first Dreamcast game I ever owned (Because it came out like a week before the console)

I used to play this every December, because it's a "Christmas Game". Actually started trying to speed run it until my Dreamcast stopped working. Dogs Bower is such a dork, I love his cosplay powers. Wear a Sumo Shirt? Sumo Slap. Wear a Wrestler shirt? Dropkick.

I'd like to suggest the Record of Lodoss War game on DC!

I unironically love this stupid game and I'm so happy you posted a video about it on my birthday!

That Ippo and Guts comparison is apt. We did start on a Boat, and punch alien monsters to death.

The enemy design reminds me more of dead space than resident evil.

I feel like that song walked into the wrong game, but everyone loved it so much that they let it stay.

I loved this game back in the day and always hoped for a remake but alas, it will never happen.

I love Blue Stinger. It is the best game ever on Dream Cast. Once you get into it you want to finish it you just got to get past the controls and camera angles

If you haven't yet, do yourself a favor and watch the Super Replay of the whole playthrough. Just nuts.

I beat this game three times, it’s fun once you know where to go.

yo 😵 isn't 🤷‍♀️ blue stinger 🗡️ just when😬 vergil 👨🏻‍🦳 does ⬆️+🔼

what a weird coincidence, supergreatfriend just did a 15 hour stream of this game last weekend lmao

I remember seeing screenshots for this game before release and being absolutely blown away by the explosion effects. I honestly couldn't believe they were in game. I need to dig out my copy and play it again.

Hey Matt, this game was made by the same people who made Illbleed.

Omg Matt thank you so much

Man I still love this game. It was the game I got with my DC a few days after launch. I just replayed it not even a week ago. It's not great by any means and definitely a b-movie RE clone. Yet I still find charm in it's jankiness. A few fun things of note: Occasionally when the coins pop out of the dead monsters it almost makes it seem like they're shitting them out upon death. You totally killed a guy with the shuttle A and B two minute countdown. You have to activate the computer terminal on the left in the first room at the top of A's elevator shaft. If you save the dude you get a napalm launcher which is a nice powerful weapon for boss fights. And lastly a full playthrough of this game is highly recommended for anyone who hasn't. Without spoiling anything the story is increasingly insane and hilarious. Exploration pays off so if you want better weapons for free and a bunch of goodies along the way make sure to poke around.

Is there a Blue Stinger holiday I missed? I just steamed the Japanese version and then noticed everyone else was doing it at the same time. Weird coincidence.

Dude has a power stance.

The blood effects should remind you of ILLBLEED, the games are by the same studio

I think the Dreamcast game with the fish creatures was the weirdest. But this is top five, at least.

I actually loved this game back in the day. It was the first game where I heard someone swear, and that was a shocker to me. There was also something about beating enemies, to get coins, and buying better guns. I should do an in depth analysis of this game one day as a forgotten game that I just love!

One big thing I remembered was this being a game I first owned on the SEGA Dreamcast and that was the one game I had issues with was with the disc. Each time I'd go to the store to swap discs, they'd have warps on the bottom making them unplayable. After finally getting the right disc, I personally had my fun with the game. Remembered the game having it's share of issues but certainly was one title I wouldn't mind replaying one day again. Would certainly be cool for a remake or reimagining down the line.

Loved the Super Replay that Game Informer did of this year's ago :P All the games by Climax Graphics/Crazy Games - this and Illbleed - like many Dreamcast games were very unique & desperately deserve to see re-releases on modern systems and PC.

18:46 D'Lo Brown's Taunt?!

What is it with that satellite exploding that way in that intro scene!? XD the fire moves too fast in the animation, and the rapid camera cuts 🤣

Older I get the more I'm convinced the dreamcast is the most underrated game system of all time

I'd love for there to be a Blue Stinger remake. So much potential in that game since it had a solid foundation and just needed some fine tuning in a number of areas.

I remember as a kid seeing ass for this game in a magazine, it showed off some screenshots and weapons used in the game and made it seem really cool.

Initially I didn't like these vids but now they are great to chill too thanks for the content dude

Played this one in the early aughts. A lot of creative risk-taking here, and it's awesome.

I had one copy in the day that I got to a part and I couldn't get further has it was missing something or it would just glitch out

Candy Apple Island? What do they got there? Dinosaurs, but they're not so big.

I'm so desperate for a remaster of this game.

I'd love to see more of this. This game is nothing but bizarre.

Crazy! I've actually been playing this game the last few days.

god i remember playing this damn game. i use to farm enemies for that good ole vending machine currency.

I’ve just realized you laugh like a Spiderman villain. That’s freaking great.

Matt, please keep playing this.

The supermarket music is killing me lol

Always saw the cover art of Blue Stinger but no actual gameplay until many years later thanks to the internet 😅. This was one of those Dreamcast games that peaked my curiosity as a child due to the cover art like other Dreamcast horror games like D2, Illbleed, Carrier, and Nightmare Creatures 2.

This is one of the first Dreamcast games I ever played. It's quite...well...something but I love it!

Another horror game that's grossly overlooked for PS1 I recommend is "Countdown Vampires".

I remember this, there were 2 different versions of the Dreamcast. Japanese or Chinese version, if I remember? 99 was sure a messed up launch, I played the downloaded Napster version. Great 👍🏼 upload, Matt.

I find it kinda funny you mention how tonally off Christmas is in a horror game when Parasite Eve took place over Christmas

18:45 somewhere D'lo smiles

remember toonami doing a plug for dreamcast back in the day, "every launch title is amazing, except blue stinger, fuck that game"

This soundtrack... it could use a "Theme of Paperweight."

That wave made me spit my drink

At start with elevator you had me panicking. They told you exactly what to do and you just ran around. 😂

Now this game brings back memories. I still call some sodas Hassy to this day.

Mutant creatures coming out of the Yucatan peninsula? Blue Stinger is a prequel to Dead Space confirmed lmao

3:54 Look at this KZfaq Poop edit And frankly, grotesque and cute overlap for me a lot of the time

soundtrack: *is epic* Matt: *loses it* this is why we're here

A stamp rally, now that was outta nowhere lol

I was thinking of playing this for the first time last week but after seeing a few clips I thought otherwise.

God I LOVE this game. I was like you when I saw screenshots back in the days in magazines, and it was one of the first games i had on Dreamcast after its release. I was 12 and didn't question ANYTHING that was going on hahaha!

Never heard of this game before but now I'm really curious..!

I own a 2018 Blue Kia Stinger...the prophesy has been fulfilled.

Omfg, Matty, thank you. I have been waiting for content about this game since I played it as a 9 year old back in 2000 with my folks.

It’s your Dreamcast man. I had to buy several copies of quake 3 arena chu chu rocket and blue stinger. These copies were really nice and one was perfect and factory sealed. I recently bought another Dreamcast and it plays every single copy I bought and plays all my games including the ones that look like they were cleaned with sandpaper. it’s probably the capacitors. I got my old one fixed and problem solved.

The axe is awesome in the first half of the game

"Yea, I got a hassy!" 🤣

My dad owned two copies of this game on dreamcast First one wouldn't boot up and the 2nd would crash at a certain part, I don't remember what part (I was 5-6) at the time but this game always looked so cool at the time

Dude is named Dogs? That’s rad as hell.

Hotdamn, i remember this game and remembered it as blue gender as a mix up. Nostalgia wave!

Love too have the Spider-Man font tell me Game Over

That thing at 11:52 is a straight up necromorph

Out of no where I decided to play this game last night while messing around with redraam and today I see your video😂. I played it way back in high school. Definitely an oddball... Also weirdly enough I exchanged my copy 2x back in high school before going to the gray area.

Oh god this game, I remember my friend let me borrow it at first I thought it was shit... then somehow started getting into it lol

i also have a cursed game parasite eve on the ps1, the 2nd disk never seems to work for me and I've been through several

Play Seventh Cross Evolution. It's like EVO: Search for Eden on SNES, except 3D and a colossal mess. It also has the best song about colors you'll ever hear.

this and D2 were the bomb back in the day, good times

Ah yes, Blue Stinger featuring Dogs Bowser.

Take me to pound town daddy. Loved this game with its Christmas theming back in the day

Made it to the final boss, didn't pick up the rocket launcher right before, couldn't finish the game and only had a single save file.

I too brought this game at one point and it failed to work on my DC.
