Quantcast



The latest Mega64 video sees the guys taking on Shadow of the Colossus. It's pretty much one of their standard skits. The guys dress up, act out the game in public and confuse the sh*t out of everyone that's watching them. It even looked like some of the people were kind of scared watching the Colossus battle take place.

Random side note: I'm pretty sure the Colossus costume they're using is also their Donkey Kong costume. Yes, that was a very important side note, I know. Check out Mega64's latest video after the break.

I honestly fail to see the humor in people being assholes in public.

Being assholes? They aren't doing anything to people. Fuck you, if I was there I would laugh.

Exquisitor fails to have a sense of humor.

They confirmed, that it is the Donkey Kong costume on their podcast.

For me this was less funny and more art in a way.

not as good as some of their other stuff.

I loved Elite Beat and PaRappa....maybe just because I love those games though :D

I wish they'd switch it up and actually... you know, do a video better oriented around a game. Right now, they just dress up and attack each other in public. The great ones involved them using game material around people and seeing the reactions. I mean, this is that technically, but jeez, SWITCH IT UP A BIT!

Scaring the kids at the end of the video is always a plus in my book.

Mega64 rocks, but this one was way too "Jackass" oriented; in fact, I think in a Jackass episode they did the exact same thing once, it just wasn't called "Shadow of the Colossus".

I used to watch this on CBC when I was a kid. Except it was called Just for Laughs: Gags.

I'm sorry, I fail to see what makes jokes funny. "Ooh, I said a punchline to make people laugh." How stupid. That's why I never laugh at anything. Everyone hates to be around me, but at least I'm better than some idiot laughing at jokes. MEEEHHHH.

Seriously, I can understand people not liking a brand of humor, but quit this high and mighty bullshit. If you don't like it, you don't like it. Don't act like it's beneath you and that anyone who likes it is an idiot or something.

Pretty funny. Not theif best, but it was still sort of amusing. I liked the costume and when they switch to that "triumphant" music, which is my favorite part of the soundtrack. And scaring kids is always funny to me.

I love Mega64.

This wasn't their best by any means, but the costume was great.

Gotta love scaring the kid at the end.

The 1:1 ratio between the kid and the colossus would make for a very different game experience :)

Ha, look at the people just looking at them. They're like "WTF?"

The 1:1 ratio however makes it kinda boring.

not awesome, but fine. And i really enjoy that these guys give us new material every 2 weeks aprox.

A few of these videos are priceless, regardless of how you feel about the group. You do need a healthy appreciation for the absurd, however. Still, this video wasn't that great. The "Ico" video was SO much better. I agree that the 1:1 ratio really hurts it. It would have actually been funnier if they had had him riding a horse aimlessly around a public park, holding his sword into the air occasionally, dismounting, re-mounting, holding his sword up, dismounting, climbing, getting back on the horse...

Not their best certainly. But the costumes were good.

I agree with Sustenance. Making fun of that aspect of the game would have been funnier, but gotten far less of a reaction. Maybe if they tried to get some light in unlit areas...I dunno.

Actually, what I would've liked to see on this one is this:

When the colossus is killed, he shoots silly string all over Wander, and they both drop. Then just lay there for a while. Ah, missed opportunities.
