What are some of your favorite games based on superheroes?

Just play the goddamned game Joe! LMAO

Mutant Apocalypse is actually a good game tho

Forget Saturday Night Live, these guys are our Early Sunday Entertainment

Dave notes the voice acting in Arkham City is "all very professional", it sure is! That's because Kevin Conroy was involved and he's been the voice of Batman in cartoons and games since the 90's. Same with The Joker voiced by Mark Hamill and the legendary Tara Strong as Harley Quinn.

Ahhhh! You didn't like X-Men 2?! Give it another go Dave, try different characters at different levels. It can make all the difference. Psylocke can actually destroy the enemies in level 2 with one touch and so on.

Do you want a decent Wolverine game? Play Xmen Origins Wolverine

Mutant Apocalypse is a Capcom game, that means Street Fighter style special moves (Like Hadouken for Cyclops Optic Blasts) It just required a bit of practice to master each character. Also the first set of levels count as the First Stage, once you clear that part you get a password and can move on to the rest of the game where you choose who to use each level and don't get a game over if one character falls.

You gave up on the 16 bit era too quickly. Maximum Carnage and Adventures of Batman and Robin should have been here.

X-MEN 2 on Genesis is one of the best 16-bit superhero games!

10 OUT OF 10 is definitely my favorite super hero game.

Just a heads up regarding Mutant Apocalypse: -Yes, there's plenty of health around in the game. In fact, i'm not sure how Dave or Joe or whoever wrote the script for this didn't see it, as every level they played had health pickups in it. -the way that the first go around of stages work is that you have to play through the first 5 stages with each X-Men character. Once you beat all 5 stages, you get a password to continue. Think of those stages like intro stages to the rest of the game. -learning the move sets and limitations of the characters would help you with playing the game. There's a down and Y move with Wolvie that would've allowed you to grab the X icon by the sentinel spine thingy.

X Men Clone Wars on the Genesis is amazing. Yeah its balls hard but its worth the effort. Come on Dave you can do better. Don't suck so hard and try again.

mutant apocalypse was my favorite and it wasnt even that hard. you need to do qcf motions to do their moves

Sucks you didn't like X-men 2 Clone Wars. Try it again next time. Definitely needs some patience but it's one of the better x-men games.

Phantom is awesome. I kinda wish there was Arkham styled game starring Phantom, where you stalk in the jungle, fight against pirates and such.

Joe, about Xmen mutant apocalypse for the snes. After you complete the mission of each character, the game continues and that's when the passwords starts to come. And you can find icons to fill your life bar! you didn't find any? Weird!

Joe's editing skills are one of the best on KZfaq

The Arkham games are phenomenal. Best superhero game series in my opinion.

Spider-Man PS4 is awesome! The web-slinging was something that captured controlling Mario in Mario 64. It had that same sense of freedom and control. Absolutely fantastic.

Compliment sandwich time. Love your channel guys... You seem to be quitting games really quickly if you don't immediately understand the mechanics or controls and then giving said game a bad rating even though the problem is on your end. … Sweet beards yo. This episode deserves a follow up to achieve the high quality you have spoiled us with in past videos.

Joe! Don't think you can just pan the audio in sync with a wipe and get away with it! I'm onto your dirty, dirty tricks...

In spiderman the point of not being able to move while healing is a deliberate design choice, to be a risk/reward mechanic like for example healing with an estus flask in dark souls, where you can heal but you take the risk of opening yourself up to a worse attack. If you could just heal with no risk at all it'd absolutely ruin the difficulty balancing

Phantom 2040 is one of my favorite games from my childhood. I remember the story being awesome also.

One cannot simply watch one Game Sack video without watching at least 3 more. Dammit, Game Sack, you've got me hooked.

Mutant Apocalypse has passwords and health-up items. For passwords, you have to get passed that first batch of levels. For health-ups, you just have to get further than you did (or explore the levels more). Some of them aren't hard to find at all. I don't know how you could have missed the ones in Gambit's level. Try looking up a move list if you ever come back to that game. And you should. Cause you suck at it and need to get better.

I love The Punisher. The PS2/Xbox game is awesome, and so is the arcade Capcom beat-em-up. Even the NES game is one of LJN's better efforts.

"Just like in the original Marvel comics, Hulk can purchase new moves at the Move Shop." Sensible_Chuckle.gif

you are legit my favorite channel on KZfaq, the quality, the humor, just everything is perfect here, thanks for having to go through so much shit to bring us this awesome show.

A shame you didn't liked X-Men 2, that one is a great game, just need some practice and know which character works better on every stage. Also the music isn't bad (or slightly crappy as mentioned by the subtitles), sure is not the best but it totally rocks. Give it another try, I did the first time I played it and it was one of the best decisions I made.

Imagine if I picked up a castlevania game on SNES and gave up on it because it was too hard. That's literally what you did to the xmen games.

The Irony that this was released a day before the passing of Stan Lee. Rest In Piece! Excelsior!!!

Kinda shocked Joe didn't bust out any of the Marvel fighting games for the Saturn. There's so much MEGA POWER to be had there.

The Capcom Xmen game is probably better if you know that there are Street Fighter style special moves that you can do to use each of the Xmen's special powers.

No mention of Marvel vs. Capcom 2? Also the Marvel Super Heroes game on SNES seemed pretty good although I didn't play a whole lot of it.

"But if you can go for the Super Nintendo version." Joe are you feeling well?

Batman: The Video Game for the NES and Batman Returns for the SNES are fantastic.

Crazy you didn't care for the 2 Genesis Xmen games, I found them both super enjoyable and Xmen 2 in particular looks gorgeous lol.

You can't start talking shit about Mutant Apocalypse on SNES if you don't even know how to play. It's an awesome game, it has great controls and each character has many special moves that you can pull of using classic Street Fighter inputs (Wolverine even has a Shoryuken-like move). The icons for refilling your health are red containers with a black 'x' on it and you can get extra lifes by finding 3 blue x icons throughout a single level. Don't go misleading people away from good games just because you couldn't figure out how to play

Crazy how you made this list and Stan Lee...passes away. RIP to the legend.

In the PS4 Spiderman review: "you'll notice how the crowd start saying the same things over and over and over again". Just like in real life, buddy…. :-D

Wtf those xmen games are great

I know this prob isn't the first comment about Mutant Apocalypse..but um I've played that game my whole life and not only do the passwords work but there are literally health powerups in every stage and X icons to get lives and continues...sometimes I feel like you guys are so definitive about something that clearly isn't true, not the opinions you guys have you can hate or love whatever,but sometimes you say something with conviction that isn't true..i know you guys are busy as hell and can't research everything about everything but sometimes I'm like ugh!!! but that's just me being too scrutinizing..so I apologize, I love the show..have for years

The first X-Men game on Genesis was one of my favorites! The Lego Batman and Marvel superheroes games are pretty good too.

Who else watches really fast and then immediately regret when it's over? My sack itches for more!

This video killed Stan Lee

Game Sack is my super hero.

The Adventures of Batman & Robin on the Genesis is incredible. Difficult, but incredible. Batman on the NES is a classic. Darkwing Duck on the NES is lots of fun and has great music.

*Batman Returns is amazing*

X-men 2 for Mega Drive is a great game guys, you just have to select Nightcrawler to pass level 2 in a breeze. Just give the game another opportunity as it is probably the only 16bit era super hero decent game.

C'mon Joe, at 3:12 you kicked a thug off the building and then just let him hit the pavement, he might have a digital family. Not very super hero of you dude

I believe there is a prototype of "The Shadow" on SNES floating around, and apparently it's pretty good.

One underrated thing about this channel is their humor. Love everything you guys have put it and I thank you for the years of entertainment 👍🏻

You two definitely lack patience when it comes to games.

“Spider sting!” I’m playing Marcels Spider man as we speak. I pretty much like all the spider man games that are sandbox types, but my favorite was Web if shadows. I liked how you can choose to be an evil Spider-Man in that game. I choose the Black cat ending.

what a coincidence that this video was released 2 days prior to stan lee's death, kind a feels like a nice gaming tribute to the legendary one and only stan lee...you'll always be living through your superheroes and timeless stories, r.i.p. father of superheroes..

"Just like the original Marvel comic, you can buy moves at the move store." Kudos.

Love your show guys keep it up My suggestions -captain america and the Avengers for NES /Genesis -Iron Man for GBA - Xmen for GBA -justice league The Flash for GBA -Superman for Genesis -Death and return of Superman snes / Genesis -Batman and Robin for SNES -incredible Hulk genesis /SNES /GBA -Maximum Carnage (SNES/ Genesis ) -x men legends 1&2 PSP /ps2 -Justice league PSP /ps2

THANK GOD you used that AWESOME Superman music from the sunsoft game again, I mistakenly thought it was a Hudsonsoft game and couldn't find it. Its AWESOME.

I'm gunna disagree with xmen mutant apocalypse. You got to remember these games were meant to be hard. You were meant to die several times before you got the hang of them. You weren't supposed to just breeze through it and go onto the next game on the backlog stack.

Wow, to think Stan would unfortunately pass away 2 days after you released this.. thanks for still making videos, guys.

I really liked Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions. It was cool having the 4 different versions of Spider-Man with different play styles.

Okay Dave you guys are being WAY overly critical of the 16 bit games. You're confusing hard with bad.

My brother and I used to play the X-Men Genesis game ALL THE TIME. It was difficult and hard to control and frustrating, but we played the hell out of it nonetheless. It was pretty good co-op fun back in the day. Also, Nightcrawler could phase through walls and skip a LOT of any given level, which was always nice.

X-men for Genesis is one of my best hero games of the 16-bit era. That plot was awesome, the music too. Man, there are even five more support characters. David couldn't pass the first level. Hope you give it another chance.

X-Men 2: Clone Wars is a quality game. You just aren’t any good.

"Pretty much every 16-bit super hero game is bad". Batman Returns (SNES), Batman & Robin (SNES), Batman & Robin (Genesis), Maximum Carnage (Snes/Genesis), War of the Gems (Snes), Mighty Morphin Power Rangers The movie (Snes), Turtles in time (Snes), Turtles Tournament Fighters (Snes), X-men Mutant Apocalypse (Snes) and Spiderman: Kingpins revenge (Genesis) beg to differ..

You guys are great. It's amazing how time flies watching your videos.

The 16-bit X-Men game are tough, but fun and well designed. Don't let these "It's hard so it sucks" guys deter you from trying them.

=\ R.I.P. Stan Lee....

I saw the notification and was like WILL IT BE THE LEGENDARY NES SYSTEM EPISODE? Nope... but any sack is good sack and good sack is game sack.

In this episode of Game Sack: Crotchety Old Men Have Zero Patience.

X-Men 2 music and sound effects kicked ass 😀😀

we all know Superman 64 is the best superhero-based game.

New episode of Game Sack! Time to turn off ad-block. Also gonna go ahead and click that like button before l even watch, for more than two reasons, but here's two good reasons, because I'm too lazy to type more words- 1. l love Game Sack. 2. Because you guys produce top quality work, while at the same time you don't pander for "likes", subscribers, and stupid popularity points. Thanks for not doing that. I really appreciate it.

The X men legends one and two are probably my favorite from the older generation. These are the games that set the foundation for the ultimate alliance games.

I also like that the characters don't blink yellow or something like that.

I might be wrong, but I think I remember being able to run in Spawn for the SNES

X-Men on Genesis can be fun with 2 players. Nightcrawler is key, as you can teleport both players. Oh and the cheat/debug helps too!

Game Sack is a KZfaq channel I use to cure my insomnia.

I love that SNES X-Men game. X-Men 2 on the Genesis is a decent single player game, but co-op is pretty bad. There's slowdown the entire time and you have to get way too close to the edge of the screen before it will scroll, resulting in tons of cheap hits.

8 minutes and you already pissed 2 ppl off, Sack.

The first X-Men on the Genesis was awesome 2 player. But that "Press Reset" puzzle was maddening. It was such a chore to get to that point, neither my friend or I dared touch the reset button on the Genesis at the risk of losing the game.

Love the fat Spiderman in the thumbnail, you guys always do a good job on them.

Love your content fellas, but you didn't even do the bare minimum before playing X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse - which for any pre digital content game is: look at the manual. The first thing that comes up when you google for the manual is a pdf of the very short manual. It tells you the moves list and what too look for to get extra health and extra lives. Had you managed that - you would have made it far enough in the game to get a password (also touched on in the manual). I'm still a fan, but effort this low calls into question your judgement as respected reviewers. Do better.

Ex-Mutants on Genesis is worth checking out

Puts on deep angry voice : *GAME SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACKKKK!!!!* _These games make me maaaaaad!_ ;)

Dave is a hero. I loved this end skit.

15:05 Must be a Midwesterner thing to pronounce "vegan" like that. Or you're doing it on purpose to bug people like me.

Just play the goddamn game Joe. Didn't expect Dave to be so hard on Mutant Apocalypse. It's brutally hard for sure, but it's a very well made game. A fun time to be had for sure. Batman seems to have the best track record of video games by far. The original Batman on NES is my favorite, but the Genesis version is also quite good. Then there's Batman Returns on the Game Gear/Master System, which is a fun platformer, the SNES and NES versions, which are fantastic beat em ups, and the Sega CD version, which has fun driving stages. The Adventures of Batman and Robin was good on the Sega Genesis, CD and SNES. Batman Return of the Joker was great on the NES, with the Genesis version being shockingly awful. Superman on the Genesis is alright, the music is some of the best of any game, but damn is it hard. Captain America and the Avengers is probably one of the best 16-bit superhero games out there. Injustice and Injustice 2 are very top-notch fighters with a large roster of DC heroes and villains. My Hero One's Justice is probably outside the scope of what you're used to, but it's a superhero game and it's quite fun.

X-2 is a really good game. Thats a game were you have to use the right character for the level. For the first avalon stage use nightcrawler. Hes fast n quick n you can teleport which can save you alot of grief. The use cyclops for the ranged attack. In a couple of levels you will unlock another mutant. Wont say who though.

Dave is 100% correct about Arkham City. Science will back him up on this.

Arkham Knight is a phenomenal sequel to Arkham City.

Dislike from me - X-men and Spawn on SNES are awesome. Someone here just doesn't how to play platform beat'em ups

The first X-men game on the MegaDrive is a great game and easy to complete once you figure it out. Especially if you use Nightcrawler to teleport through the levels.

Hulk Ultimate Destruction is one of my favorite super hero games. I remember playing that game with my best buds until the sun came up!

A longtime superhero fan - before it was chic, actually - I really enjoyed this episode. Was glad to see a Rocksteady Batman title featured but I have to highly recommend Sunsoft's NES Batman. Too date, one of my favorite video games of all time. Sunsoft's Genesis Batman and Konami's SNES Batman Returns are great plays as well. Most of Konami's 8 and 16-bit Batman entries are worth playing, to be honest. Capcom's X-Men and Marvel 2-D fighters are awesome too - avoid the PS2 ports though. Joe, you may like Ultimate Spider-Man if you like cell-shading - I'm sure it's a step back from PS4 Spider-Man but the Venom levels have something of a Hulk Ultimate Destruction vibe to 'em. X-Men Origins: Wolverine is the best Wolverine game I've played - the M-rated 360 and PS3 versions really let you cut loose. The X-Men Legends games are more-than-decent, Dave, and if you like them, the Marvel Ultimate Alliance spiritual sequels are worth a look.

At first I went "aw No Maximum Carnage or Separation Anxiety?", but then I remembered that it's mostly my nostalgia and they're actually not very good.

I almost spit my cereals on the screen when I saw hulk crushing that woman for no reason with a police car lol

X-men for the snes is a great game, I dont know what Dave is talking about. Also, Clone Wars is pretty good for the genesis, I even say that the first x-men for the genesis is kind of fun once you get to know the controls
