A Game Sack episode? At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within my living room!?

Tony Deaf is low-key hilarious. That's a better joke than in most modern episodes

stop motion animation, clay animation for a one off episode and now you're doing hand drawn animation for another one off episode. Major props for the effort

"Note: Dave died on the way back to his home planet,"

Comic Book Guy voice: "Best. Game Sack. Ever."

Hey Joe, you seem to be a perfectionist, but honestly your animation parts of yourself are great. Thumbs up!

I always felt that “Road Rage” should have been called “Hit & Run”, and vice versa.

This episode was “excellent!”

Pointless fact: Virtual Bart was the first Simpsons game where the voice actors recorded actual dialogue for it. All the games before that use samples from the show.

This seriously has to be the best episode you've ever done. Major thumbs up for the animation!

Was that Metal Jesus!? Wow, I didn't know you guys were working together!

Joe, I don't want to alarm you, but there may be a Greendog or GREEEENDOG in the house!

Moleman: "Didn't this series used to have a Dave in it?" Come on, get up! You've been warned!

My therapist: Simpson Joe isn't real, he can't hurt you Simpson Joe:

Hi I'm Joe Redifer. You may remember me from such Game Sack episodes as "Piss-Poor Ports!" and "How to Clean Your Stupid Games!"

I can't believe you got Matt Groening to do the animation

In future you can just draw Dave in screen for the show. 😁

love how he include the "yellowing" on the SNES! hahaha

Bart, I don't want to alarm you, but there may be a new Game Sack episode in the house

"HOMER!!! I NEED YOU TO GO BUY EGGS FOR BART!!!"

Virtual Springfield on the PC was probably my most authentic Simpson experience. To be fair its a point and click adventure with no real "objective" or means to win. But it was fun to explore Springfield and see all the attention to detail/easter eggs to the most popular episodes.

Holy Mother of God he drew the episode! That's such dedication from Joe. What a legend.

Hats off for the animation, and thank you for making a comprehensive video for their releases, everybody covers Road Rage, Hit & Run, or Skateboarding.

I'm gonna be honest. The fact that you've gotten BETTER since going solo is insane. Amazing episode.

Laughed insanely hard to that MJR reference hahaha. Your best episode yet!

"Hello, I´m Joe McClure, you may remember me from such Game Sack episodes as Sony Playstation VS Sega Saturn and Criminally Overlooked Games"

This reminds me that you look a bit like Hank Scorpio

I appreciate how much time I know it had to take to do all that animation by hand. Nicely done!

BEST game sack episode EVER! . . .

Holy cow, I was just about to eat my shorts before going to bed.

IT BEGINS I liked the fact in Hit&Run for some of the races you could just go the opposite direction and reach the destination faster then the way you are suppose to go.

I know I'm in the minority, but I loved Bart vs. The Space Mutants! And I agree, the NES version is way better than the Genesis version. (Btw, to use the rocket, once you've put it on the ground, run into it to launch it at the statue. You can also fire at the E in the Kwik E Mart sign and at the windows at the retirement home.) I enjoyed the video, thanks! :)

This channel is so underrated, thank you gamesack for the quality content.

Great dedication, Joe. I love that you animated this episode.

I really got into Krusty's Super Fun House back in the day. My friends had it and we would all brainstorm together until we figured out the solution to each stage.

Is there no end to this man's talents??? Excellent vid :)

For effort and execution this was the best video yet! Props

Haha the way you kept going to the picture of Garry Kitchen just sitting their smiling had me dying!

"Tony Deaf" as in "tone deaf", lol.

You did not cover Krusty's Fun House on the SNES ! I thought it was a good game.

Try Adobe Character Animator. It was even used to do a live call-in Q&A with Homer Simpson during a football game a few years back.

Great episode Joe! And you really should check out the Commodore 64 port of Simpsons Arcade, it’s quite impressive for the hardware.

Simpsons Hit & Run’s animation looks like that 3D Homer skit in Treehouse of Horror VI. Nice touch

Finally. A Sponsor that I can respect :D

Holy hell the intro is amazing!!!

The fact you animated your dialog, despite how minimal, is simply astounding, Joe! Also, on a totally different note, do you think you'll ever do a show about the games Ion Storm released? I hope so. 🙏

Your animation looks more like Beavis & Butthead's earlier years than The Simpsons. Speaking of which, have you ever reviewed the Beavis & Butthead games?

You kept the animation going through the entire episode. Color me impressed! We can really taste the love and care that goes into crafting Game Sack. Mmmmm crafty love *drools*

I gotta say I have mad respect for this channel. Y’all are so insanely consistent with the videos, videos are always substantial length, and they all have effort put into them. The humor is cringey as hell but I consider that a bonus personally. Please keep it up!!!

That's weird Joe, I was binging a bunch of Simpsons episodes and this came up.

The whole alien and glasses thing in Bart vs the Space Mutants was a parody of John Carpenter's They Live.

There was also an itchy and scratchy snes game that was pretty interesting

Excellent episode especially love how you used Simpson's style animation for the episode including yourself

pretty good animation actually, even those claymation things, amazing you were able to sync the lip/facial movements with the talking.

There’s one Simpsons themed game you forgot to mention and that’s the DMA designed Lemmings like game Krusty’s Super Funhouse for the Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Sega Master System, Amiga, Game Gear, Game Boy, NES, and of course PC.

This intro is bananas. I absolutely love this

"Excellent"

Wow I bet someone really cool helped with the idea for this episode. 👀

You were right, the reason you weren't seeing the cutscenes on the Genesis Virtual Bart in the waterslide level is because it was in practice mode

We’ve gotten claymation, stop motion, and now actual animation. Joe is a talented dude.

The lips thing was ridiculous 🤣 Nothing beats the Simpsons Aracde game

that was actually really nice lip sync, must've taken forever lol also, it's okay to dream about game sack sometimes, i do it pretty oft--

The fact that you did all the animation yourself was actually quite impressive. I think it even tops the sega cd fmv style episode in my opinion. I especially appreciated the the yellowing you added the SNES, nice touch.

you guys are officially the goats!!!!!!!! y'all produce the episodes make the episodes write the episodes direct the episodes and now your animate the episodes????? MARVELOUS!!!!!!!

Damn. That must have taken some effort! Great stuff.

Hey Joe, great episode as always! Ever thought of doing a console revision episode? Watching the Snes vs gen episode made me think of all the revisions both consoles had.

This video has such a "Gaming in the Clinton Years" vibe, I'm not even kidding...

One thing you forgot to mention about Road Rage: It has a multiplayer mode where two players complete to pick up and deliver passengers, and you can steal passengers from the other car by ramming into them and it is *gold*

I really appreciate all the time and love you put into your videos.

Thanks for doing this Sack.

I lost at the MetalJesusRocks joke. Good job

Hit & Run was one of my favorite Gamecube games, top 5.

The Simpsons Arcade Game can be had via MAME too if needed. :P

Was hoping for a review of bonestorm. "Buy me bonestorm or go to hell!"

This has to be your best episode yet! You should do some more episodes based off of long running shows. I would love to see a SpongeBob Games episode! Haha

The first game I got for Christmas was Bart vs the space mutants on the ZX spectrum. It would never load past the fight with Nelson and just get stuck. For a whole year I would replay that first level over and over until the following Christmas. So yeah, don't come into school next monday.

"Must. Never. Run. AGAIN!"

I loved Simpsons Road Rage. It really is a great game.

28:59 this MJR reference literally made me spit my drink out. Well done sir 👍

gotta love the production level of these videos. It's so evident how you love the subject and the effort that you put into it. A joy to watch! Thanks!

An amazing episode, Joe! Very impressed by the animation!

The turnout this channel has is crazy for the quality of content. These guys are machines, lol

That Metal Jesus part jesus, I almost died

I just wanna note that it was really great seeing Dave back for at least one episode recently. But it also made me realize that you really are doing a fantastic job even by yourself, still coming up with creative & awesome ideas to keep the show fresh, like what you did here animating yourself in the Simpsons style. That sort of stuff sets you apart and makes the show great. Keep up the fantastic work man!

Man, I'm only a few seconds in and this is rad, great job, Joe!

Best comedy series in history. The Simpsons isn't bad either.

Game Sack keeps going the extra mile on these episodes! Such a great idea and execution for a themed game episode. I can imagine it wasn't easy doing the animation but it really paid off in this video! Well done! I hope another Bluray collection is in the works at some point down the road as I'd happily add this to my existing Game Sack disc collection. Bravo Joe! Keep up the awesome work!

17:15 - Lip sync on point, better than most games today.

Man, I've never heard of Virtual Bart. Wild.

I wonder if the Simpsons creator ever created an official map of Springfield

Road Rage has secret cars on certain holidays so set your clock to Christmas and Thanksgiving to get seasonal cars.

That Metal Jesus cameo is a true hidden gem!

"The game is practically a parody of itself" so basically like the show today then. Fallen so far :'(

Love the intro!

Honestly the best channel on KZfaq. I'm like a 3 year fan

Fav Simpsons Games are The Arcade Game, Road Rage, Hit and Run, and The Simpsons Movie Game.

"DOH"

Well done Joe!

From stop motion animation to animation! The creativity you put into your special episodes is seriously impressive!

just had to mention this about Bart's Nightmare: when you get into a page, you can select the door to enter with left and right on the d-pad, giving you more options on the mini-game instead of letting the game decide when you reach the doors.
