Hahaha, wow that was funny. I loved the music part, made me laugh pretty hard. I like the Harry Potter wizard cloak by the way. Can you tell me where to find one?

Frenchies FTW!

No much else to say. Nice to see someone go out of his way to make a video not in his own language, cause he loves screw attack so much.

YEAH TRUE

I think that explains HOW Great is Screwattack because it gathers people from all around the world in AWESOMENESS !!!

Awesome.

Tres magnifique!

You're like the French David Tennant as Harry Potter.

Is that...

a compliment ???

There are Games you might don't know

Why yes...

Yes it is a compliment. David Tennant (Doctor Who) is full of awesome.

Not bad.

That was a pretty cool review.

he did a really good job on

he did a really good job on this video, it was funny and informative which are all I want in a video.

Random

I bought an NES/SNES with about 30 games for each console and this game was one of them.

That was one of the funniest

That was one of the funniest g1 submissions ever!

He sounds like Tim Westwood baby

Think only UK G1's will know who I mean lol

It's evil.

I hate that game. I hated it when I was a kid and I still hate it. Not because it's bad, but because it's impossible.

Loved the review though.

Yup.

It's crazy difficult! You will NEVER finish it without cheating.

Nice

Great enthusiasm on camera! Hope you do more

there is more

Anyways, nice video. I like it. :)

Lost treasures

I remember this one, and yes it was very challenging.
Every challenge, and the cave (its easy to get lost, even the direction arrows change)

I really wonder if there was even an ending

yes there is an ending

if you find the guy with the rod completed, then you save your chick and blast the shit out of MORBIUS's face..

That was the only moment where there is actually action in this game :D

but I beat it with the game genien you should do the same

HUM Google it...

I found it on a website called CINEREPLICA.COM

but I guess you can found them somewhere else dude.

BTW it's the official Cloak so it's pretty expensive but GOOD Qualiy

There are Games you might don't know

oh god

i have this game..
i realy dont like it
that's just me

Haha I do remember the game,

Haha I do remember the game, the tv ad made me want it sooo bad. And then I tried it at my uncle's and couldnt figure out shit. Well anyway it's not like I could have bought the game anyway since I had a Master System at that time.

Anyway it was pretty cool.

And you've inspired me, I should make a video too, I was afraid to post it because, well, I'm french too, and although my accent might be a little thicker than yours, I see nobody complained so maybe it'll be okay.

another French G1

Hey please add me to your MSN

benzaie79@hotmail.com

I ' d like to gather the french G1 to do some stuff and all...

There are Games you might don't know
but that are still pretty damn Sweet...SWEET !

Humor of AVGN level!!

This guy is funny. It's was short and fast, but I laughed! His french accent makes him unique, and his humor is like that of the legendary avgn. But it's not a rip-off.

I'll look for more videos of this guy in the future.

WOW THX

That's the best compliment I can possibly get !!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH :D

be sure to check my blog :D

There are Games you might don't know

Haha, I lol'd when I first

Haha, I lol'd when I first watched this. Not to be rude or anything, but his accent makes it that much funnier to watch.

"Do do do dooooo do"

But thx so much for loving the video :D

There are Games you might don't know

oh my goodness

that was boatloads of awesome!

good video

lol wtf in french is even more funny

Photobucket

Man i'm going to have to

Man i'm going to have to rock this game later. i loved it when it came out, and still find it fun. and the music is bad ass.

Such a great review. Keep up the good work. Very enjoyable video.

Liked it!

Liked it! Liked it even more than Samtrons videos about "unknown" games. And Samtron is a hot chick!

Equinox

I have the sequel and always wondered what solstice 1 was. The game (Equinox: Solstice II) is fun and looks great but it is also incredibly hard. Same general build except that the dungeon is split into multiple worlds and
there are different entrances into each one from the world map which has monsters roving around on that you can fight. You do actually get to attack in it (throwing knives and stuff) and get magic , but you still die in one hit (You get a healing spell but it basically just restores your continues). Some enemies take forever to kill and you can maybe only have brief openings to hit them due to the game's rooms and your weapons aren't all that powerful.

Well Dude

It Seems you have played Equinox a lot more than me...

But What I disliked in Equinox was the Environement, and the graphics...EQUINOX doesn't have the charm of Solstice...

But Hey that's my personnal opinion... do A EQUINOX REVIEW :D

There are Games you might don't know
but that are still pretty damn Sweet...SWEET !

deffently not perfect

Oh I found it completely frustrating, could never get past the second world, but something about it I felt had a charm, I might should try this out to see if it is what I felt equinox might have wanted to be.

Good stuff.

At first I was a little worried, but this video got funnier as it went on. I liked the music part, that was hilarious. It made me LOL. Good stuff.

INFO

Just keep your movies about information about games, your like the game-historian only you make jokes! AND THEY ARE NOT FUNNY, especially with that anoying accent you got! GOD I HATE YOU!

GOD that's Harsh

I don't think I did a lot of history in this review...
and most Importantly...

I don"t think this is the kind of of Comment One Should Get from a fellow G1, all Linked by Awesomeness but you appear to be different just look at your comment and compare it to the others...

You deserve a big fat LAME

There are Games you might don't know
but that are still pretty damn Sweet...SWEET !

yeah that guy sucks at life

i laughed my ass off, that other guy is an idiot. And not to sound like a big d-bag but your accent was hilarious, im lookin forward to the next one

That music is pretty

That music is pretty sweet...and that scream...

I would have liked to see what made the sequel so bad

Hit!

I find g1 submissions are usually hit or miss. This one is a definate hit. I liked it. Entertaining and all. I've heard of this game, seen it on store shelves but never played it. Maybe someday.

Well Thanks

you should try the game...
but thank you because I was afraid that nobody watch my reviews but GOD I got 50 subscription on youtube TODAY !

There are Games you might don't know
but that are still pretty damn Sweet...SWEET !

Full of win!

Oh my god, it's the French

Oh my god, it's the French A.V.G.N. lol

WOW that's a comment...

I like to have... As long as you compare the awesomness and not think i'm a rip off

There are Games you might don't know
but that are still pretty damn Sweet...SWEET !

Great idea for a video

I was planning on doing something like that but I guess he beat me to it, good job

You mean.... ?

Reviewing SOLSTICE ???

or just reviewing games people might not know ?

because you know, nobody's got the exclusivity of reviewing such games... VGV is kinda like that too so feel free and post your reviews...

There are Games you might don't know
but that are still pretty damn Sweet...SWEET !

Loved the review :-)

Loved the review :-)

cool

I never heard of this game before but it looks good. You should review the last ninja for NES, it's similar to solstice.

Loved the subtitles

But what kind of weirdo uses the word "tarlouze"? I never heard that being used more than once or twice in my entire life. Maybe it's because no one in Quebec will actually say something like that, and i never went to France where they use a bunch of weird words like that.

Tarlouze...

stands for Pussy and it's pretty comon around here :D
