    Holy crap. First Duke Nukem original and now Jill of the Jungle?

    It's like you know my childhood video game experiences by heart!

    Are you going to do Jazz Jackrabbit, or One Must Fall 2097 next?

    Please do One Must Fall 2097 next. ;D

    Yes, this looks like a fun game...but I have to say I was disappointed in the aspect that you could or did not want to see. Sure, it looks and plays great but it is obvious that this game was made by egotistical guys who didn't give a shit about the game aside from the graphics and gameplay (most likely because they were forced to make a game back then that girls would enjoy). What with the "shoes untied" and the "tricky!" slogan, it as obvious they were poking fun at the gamer in a clever yet bad way of being subtle.

    But aside from that and how you bashed frogs (Poor KERMIT!!) I think you did a great job as allways.

    And why do I have to be the first one to rate again? That is the second time I had to (oher time was Nostalgia Chick's video) but guess somebody needs to do it.

    Great Job again. I'm confused whether this review was made before or after Duke Nukem. I'm assuming before. Keep it up. I especially liked the saw blade commercial.

  • -Jerry-  - You are great!

    I MAO'ed real hard on the part where she presents the 'laugh of death' and even harder on the part with the remix!!!

    Awesome vid! I think it's safe to say I played some uhhh unique games
    in my life but Jill of the Jungle...shit! The knife actually look like
    crucifixes, you could say Jill's trying to exercise the demons in these frogs.
    As for the awful cover art you gotta check out the unofficial Jill of the Jungle
    Website. They got some better illustrations, as well as another one in that
    horrible Pac-Man style and one with a floppy disk in the corner wearing a
    propeller cap and grasping a joystick in his lap (you know where this is going!)

    the part where you sing "These are the games i GREW UP ON!" sounds alot like the retarded police man tune, nice vid, though
    NICE USE OF G&R!

    I think youve got a good idea with old games you grew up with but to be honest i think your humor needs a bit of work. not saying i dont enjoy your videos but work on jokes would be my advice

    Music is just too loud !!

  • ThatGuyintheGreen  - Good Song!
    avatar

    I love the song you used in the intro, and the way u set the time of the game by listing things that happened in that era!
    i used a similar technique in a teaser for the book "Things Fall Apart"

    Awesome Review8)
    Just two things that i feel need be mentioned:
    -The Megaman covers look so crappy and different from the game because this post-apocalyptic-reality-style was pretty hip at the time and nobody really cared for the manga-style of the originals too much
    -Same as with Duke: you only played the shareware episode. the actual game has two eps more, making it three time longer...i guess...

    honestly ive only played that ep, too. but the game was great, and not just for girls;) best part is the tablesaw:"It slices, it dices..." :D

    I had a similar history, only it was '98, when i got my crappy pc, with Jill of the jungle and Xargon on the winchester. These Epic games were the shit. :evil: :evil: :evil:

  • Master of Aeons  - Awesome.

    It's nice to know I wasn't the only person who played it.

    ...Though I may still be the only male.

    I miss Jazz :(

    I'd settle for just finding a pirated copy of this, as there is absolutely no way to legitimately get a copy of this game.

    Also, I heart those ancient computer games. I played Jill. A little. Being a guy, I prefered this other bizzare co-release that involves...an...archaeologist? I don't know, but Epic Games was Epic.

    back when i made a computer for a class i had back in school, the teacher gave me floppy with about 8 games on it(that's right. 8 games. you just know they were old as shit) and this was one of them.

    game got frustrating as piss but i played it for half the summer

    Oh snap! I played that game! It was like Xargon only with worse graphics and no Laser Bullets!

    HA! awesomeness! never played it but i'm glad you admitted that you don't know why its great which seems to be a theme with those old games
