04.06.2022Jess, are you free to come down to Melbourne this weekend? Mum says you can stay over again if you just don't talk only about American McGee's Alice. she says it's been over 20 years now and it ripped off Return to Oz anyway.

04.06.2022Yeah, I’m kinda biased towards Evolve. And the overwhelming amounts of paid content definitely hurt the game’s reputation.
But the segment on Evolve has several statements that were flat out wrong. All the day one DLC was cosmetic. None gave you an unfair advantage over other players. The Wraith, who was absolutely busted on release, had to be earned in-game and there were no micro transactions to even speed up the unlocking process.
The devs were pretty clear that the 4th wave of characters were going to be paid DLC. There was disappointment and groans but it wasn’t a bait and switch. Even the DLC characters weren’t busted to make you feel like it was a Pay-to-Win scheme going on. (On the contrary, the 4th monster was buggy AF on launch. Game crashes, it’s abilities sometimes flat out not working and etc.)
By definition, a cash grab is a product that was designed with the sole intention of generating profit. I honestly don’t think Evolve deserves that. Once again, I acknowledge the egregious amount of paid DLC attached to a 60 dollar game was ridiculous. But I felt that a lot of care and creative thought went into the game, enough to make me believe it wasn’t a shameless cash grab.

04.06.2022Who had hyped up metal gear survive exactly? Everyone knew it was a cash grab from the moment the premise was revealed. I'm not even a metal gear head and I know this lol

04.06.2022You forgot every CoD since the 2nd one
The 12th Mandalorian
04.06.2022i loved Dead Rising 4, but that ending was truly frustrating
Eric C
04.06.2022Wait. House of the Dead remake is on the list of games that didn’t deserve to bomb and also on the list of games you should avoid… anything for a click, I guess
Dave Fav
04.06.2022odd how house of the dead remake is in this whatculture video. but also mentioned in another whatculture video on games that didnt deserve to bomb 😅
Matt Blank
03.06.2022Plus Nintendo Switch Sports has substantially less sports than the last title Wii Sports Resort.
Adam Stankard
03.06.2022I never trust an exclusively Japanese developers. $$ is the only thing they care about. not racist, just a thing that has been demonstrated time and time again.
Matt Blank
03.06.2022In reality this entire list should be mobile games.
Willy B Hardigan
03.06.2022I liked dead rising 4
nintendians
03.06.20224. what do you expect, wii sports is pretty much a free game on the wii – nintendo switch sports is no different, just that it didn't come with a "switch" system and not a free game.
Marcus Simmons
03.06.2022Anything EA related is a cash grab
dave doerffer
03.06.2022I thought the house of the dead didnt deserve to go out and die now its a crap game??
Reece Drury
03.06.2022Lol just watched the awesome video games to give a chance recommending house of the dead…..you guys talk to each other?
Michael Lewis
03.06.2022I like how in 2 days, your channel has completely contradicted itself. In "10 Awesome Recent Video Games That Didn’t Deserve To Bomb", House of the Dead Remake was featured. Then in this, we see you telling us to avoid it. These videos were uploaded on May 27 and 28. I enjoy your videos, but seriously, TRY for some consistency, maybe?

03.06.2022where is world of tanks ?
Timothy Pitcher
01.06.2022Free to play games are known to prey on your money as well. If you don't pay up, those advertisements will constantly damage the overall game experience.
DesertPunk Tiger
01.06.2022idk about The House of the Dead remake being in this list, Its still a decent remake imho, and I think most people don't realize how short arcade games really are once you take out the coin-op part of it.
Kyrie Fang
01.06.2022This seems like a ragebait video funded by EA.
Middley Of Hills Of Crystals
01.06.2022Before I buy games that I’m interested in, I watch people play it online, join in conversations about purchases in game and if it’s actually decent overall (storyline, graphics and how smooth the gameplay is). I’ve saved quite a bit of money from it lol.
Corey Atherley
01.06.2022Wait.. Where’s Pokémon?

01.06.2022Why did every clip of 3rd Stike online feature Gill in it, could you idiots not get any other footage or something?
Cole Decker
01.06.2022Metal Gear Survive was a train wreck even if you have no prior Metal Gear experience. I went in to the game having never played the other games and I was optimistic because I thought all around it had a really cool concept and some of the mechanics were really well done… but then after a bit the whole thing starts becoming very repetitive with not much variety on enemies or how to approach different situations. Then when I later played MG5 and was extremely disappointed to discover that pretty much every single map from MGS was ripped straight out of MG5. It's pretty much MG5 with a majority of the mechanics ripped out and throw in some zombies. What makes this the most disappointing is that I think this game actually had a LOT of potential, they just didn't give this game any love what so ever
RedDevil757
01.06.2022Nah Wii sports was crap just like the latest one. People either got caught up in the craze or were too young to recognise how bad it was. Now they're just seeing it for what it always was.

01.06.2022Y'all just hyped House of the Dead on another video also within the last day or two, the gaming Channel is basically worthless clickbait and hypocrisy now
James Windley
31.05.2022Soooooooo we should avoid House of The Dead in one video but that same game is on the “games that didn’t deserve to bomb” list…. Lol good video tho
Adam Duffy
31.05.2022Yes EVERYTHING EA BATHSSTA ? Has done since FALLOUT 4,FALLOUT 76 ELDER SCROLLS ONLINE BUT EA ARE JUST AS BAD IF NOT WORSE GIVING US PVZ1,2,3 STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT 1,2 I EVEN THINK TITAN FALL IS IN THERE TOO ?.
Baron Zemo
31.05.2022Every Madden since they secured the rights. Then every other team sports by EA and 2K since the advent of micro transactions and ultimate teams. And now with the inserting ads talk…pff sigh
Hales M
31.05.2022Actually… apps by definition are applications… just saying…
Chad Purkis
31.05.2022One reason piracy still exists is because of games like these

31.05.2022Only two games I ever bought full price. Elden ring and God of war. Both I don’t regret. ❤️
Chris Godfrey
31.05.2022This entire list could have been mobile titles or gacha games. Honestly most listed were already known for being crap games or at least only cost the initial amount of purchasing the game. Whereas most mobile titles and gacha games can require thousands of dollars in investment to actually make significant progress. So this list feels a bit inaccurate on claiming these titles as the worst cash grabs. FF Only the Bravest and the Harry Potter one are the only titles I would actually say are deserving on being on here, the rest while not great games and certainly had faults with DLC structure don't seem nearly as scummy for cash grab territory as you'll find in the mobile market nowadays.
And also not a single mention of loot box based games
Vlan Doom
31.05.2022Yes while Street Fighter 3 Online Edition was a cash grab, it had the best netcode by console standards.
Only other way to play that crisp online is through Fightcade.
Michael Žarić
31.05.2022Skyforge is easily one of the most cash grabing mmorpgs even tough they made a great game and a New take on character/classes its a game u cant play and be in the top if u dont spend enormous amounts of money. Cheers

Clark Crossley
30.05.2022As players we should be loyal to our wallets, do not believe all the hype and reviews until you have actually played the game yourself. I have alpha/beta tested many games and it is common to use the testing process to garner good reviews, the game is then retuned on release and you get a slightly, sometimes not so slightly different game than you thought you were getting.

30.05.2022My younger kids never played the wii sports… My question is would the new one be good for an 8 year old that never played the original. I was going to get it for her bday

30.05.2022You forgot to mention Sonic Orgins
– Stupid DLC listing you have to pay 40 dollars for Mirror mode unlock or get Sonic Spinball, Sonic 3d Blast, and Knuckles Chatiox music.
– Amy is not Playable and Knuckles in Sonic CD.
-You can't play with livestock in wide-screen.
– No Knuckles Chatiox or Master System Sonic games.
