11.12.2009 - 22:03 | theabsementbasementThe end of this video actually scared the hell out of me. It's like in a horror film when the killer just won't die.
Great video.

11.13.2009 - 14:23 | taojonesDid you re-edit this from the first time it was posted, or is that my imagination? I don't remember the over-the-shoulder split screen effect form before.
Either way this is one of my favorite UWWs.

11.12.2009 - 22:26 | EvenStevenHave you ever tried Ikaruga?
-
11.13.2009 - 01:14 | Justice for none
Even I beat Ikaruga. It doesn't hold a candle to some of these games. It is unbelievably fun though. :D
-
11.13.2009 - 04:14 | X-DeathI WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THAT.
Every single time I watch an UWW, I think to myself "The dude seriously needs to play Ikaruga. He wont beat it."
Considering I've had the game for years, played it to death and STILL can't beat the game ( with its original continues ).
Play Ikaruga LordKat.
It's cheap on XBA.

That ending was PERFECT. That song is so awesome yet creepy at the same time.

The intro to this is my favorite thing about this entire series... you introduce SS as an omnipotent god, an unstoppable force of absolute power ..... who can die in one hit by ANYTHING.
It's just very well timed.

But I wanted to see you take on the second quest :(
-
11.12.2009 - 23:46 | VengefulRonin
A...hard mode...what the hell.
Excellent choice on the final song to play xD
-

Frank Zappa for the win!
And yeah. It's like they wanted to make the players irrevocably destroy their consoles and game, so that they would have to replace it.
The second quest is... oh god...
-
11.13.2009 - 13:32 | namingwayIt's best if you don't get him started on the... third quest. Yes, this game has a third quest.

Nice video. I have to thank you for putting up with this torture in order to show us some really neat stuff. Thanks dude.

11.12.2009 - 23:58 | Mike Lemmer
Yeah. Did you beat the Second Quest?
*tightens the screws*

My god like this game wasn't hard enough.
I seriously do not know how you do it but you manage to get it done. Congratulations.
Man I am a big collector of shooters but I would not even touch that game.

I agree with Chaos, the timing in this episode is awesome.
Also, I love the ending. That song is a Dr. Demento classic, and thus wins big points with me.

11.13.2009 - 00:11 | joey_falconettisecond quest ??? what is that ??? anyway this is a really good show...
and remember kids: WINNERS DON'T USE CHEATS

11.13.2009 - 00:19 | Awesome McBadass PowerfistThey're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa! by Napoleon XIV. I love it. Very fitting.

I watched this one on youtube.
And you sir deserve a billion dollar prize for having the patience to beat this game.
It was SUCH a great moment when you went 'Is that a password?'
I also don't like how the scaly, Reptyle, has to be beaten first. He looks pretty cool.

There's actually a code for a third quest:
S4FHFB.
-
11.13.2009 - 00:54 | tiggerpeteso is there a second part of this where you beat every facet of this game, Second quest, third, more possibly?

Passwords
Press Up on both controllers to access the password screen.
Password Effect
KCHDR4 Second Quest
[b]KJTTJK Invincibility[/b]
S4FHFB Third Quest
J8SCL9 2 Extra Continues
[b]SJM333 Unlimited Continues
CKWJT4 Full Weapons[/b]
here is some of the built in passwords (which considering how sadistic the programmers were, it would be more than understandable, nay recommended that you make use of these, after all, they programmed these in too)
granted invincibility would make it too easy, but the full power ups and the unlimited continues are good ones to have, and would certainly save your sanity a bit.

You know what this means someone had to acutely had to beat the game more then TWICE to get these right

I'd love to see the second quest. I have to see the insanity of that one.
Great video, it was really entertaining. Keep them coming!

My friend beat this game on an emulator with save states, just so we could see the ending. It's so full of shit.
GALACTUS: Good job, you brought me the weapon. Now give it to me.
SURFER: No.
The end.
Like, seriously, what???
-
Damn man, talk about going through the extra mile. Very funny. I loved it.
I want to suggest Vector Man for the Sega Genesis next. It's a game I accually got to the last level on but I couldn't beat the final boss.

Great Video and I loved the ending with "They're Coming to Take Me Away" by Jim Stafford. The man who sang "My Girl Bill" and "Spiders and Snakes" one of my favorite artists from the 70's!

This has got to be one of the worst games I ever saw, it's not just that we have to believe the Silver Surfer is made out of paper, but that was some of the most piss poor level design I have EVER seen, and in the top down stages why is the board so long? It makes your stupid hit box that much bigger, and it doesn't even scale to the side scrolling part!
-

Holy hell, how were you ever able to beat Silver Surfer? I first saw this game on the Angry Nerd, and it looked so mind-blowingly ridiculous that I knew I would never so much as lay a finger on it. And yet you went full in there and beat that sucker into the ground. Congrats, a million times, congrats!
That was a pretty damn cool video, too. I love the ways you used to describe the insanity of the game developers, and then hitting the point home with "They're Coming To Take Me Away." Simply awesome.

I was rendered speechless upon finding out Silver Surfer has a hard mode.
This, plus about a minute for the shock to subside, was followed by raucous laughter, further enhanced by the second quest code.
Probably not the best thing to watch when it's a quarter of 3 in the am and others are trying to sleep.
I'd tip my hat to you if I ever wore one, so I'll instead conclude with: Bravo, good sir, bravo.

11.13.2009 - 04:59 | LittlePancakeThis game was made FOR Silver Surfer.

When I was really young, I thought Silver Surfer & Iceman were the same person.
Mephisto looks uh...really a LOT like Mr. Sininster there. O_o
Well, no one can say you don't handle stress & being challanged well.
