Dialogue: 0,0:00:02.60,0:00:04.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Rafael Fernandes: Golden Axe is an indisputable classic.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:04.77,0:00:09.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The game produced by Sega for the arcades in 1988 made a huge success
Dialogue: 0,0:00:09.85,0:00:12.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and was ported to a lot of consoles at the time.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:12.61,0:00:17.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But the Mega Drive was the only video game console that decently reproduced the arcade version,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:17.33,0:00:20.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and for this reason many people knew the game through it.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:20.100,0:00:23.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Sega even made some sequels,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:23.18,0:00:26.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but none of them was able to repeat the success of the original –
Dialogue: 0,0:00:26.22,0:00:30.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that is, many of the games in the series that followed it were garbage.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:31.40,0:00:34.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The company recently launched a remake for the PlayStation 2
Dialogue: 0,0:00:34.12,0:00:36.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and soon after tried to do a reboot,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:36.02,0:00:39.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in an entirely new game for the Xbox 360, but…
Dialogue: 0,0:00:39.70,0:00:41.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Guess what, eh.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:41.44,0:00:42.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Spitting and fart sounds]
Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.45,0:00:44.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But let's talk about good things:
Dialogue: 0,0:00:44.79,0:00:49.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the first Golden Axe has a number of secrets and curiosities around the whole game,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:49.30,0:00:50.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it about is them that we'll speak now.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:50.88,0:00:52.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Hold on then. Play the vignette!
Dialogue: 0,0:01:15.06,0:01:17.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you are a meticulous person,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.05,0:01:20.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you'll realize that the whole game seems to occur in a village sponsored by Sega.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.89,0:01:22.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Do you know why? Look here:
Dialogue: 0,0:01:22.02,0:01:26.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the houses are from Sega, the bar is from Sega, even the map is from Sega, forgod'ssake.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:26.74,0:01:31.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But beyond that, the development team also got a way to put their names in the game,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:31.56,0:01:34.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or at least what we think is the nickname,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:34.23,0:01:37.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because it is not possible that someone is called Doydoy, for example.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:38.01,0:01:41.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,In the ending, let's say, "epic" of the arcade version,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:41.52,0:01:44.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where all the characters leave the arcade and invade the city,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:44.61,0:01:47.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,more names appear on the screen, including that of Uchida,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.85,0:01:50.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Makoto Uchida, the director of the game.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:50.70,0:01:54.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There's also a strange sign written Hokari Sweat, can you see?
Dialogue: 0,0:01:54.49,0:01:55.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What's that there?
Dialogue: 0,0:01:55.71,0:01:59.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's actually a satire to a Japanese drink called Pocari Sweat,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:59.46,0:02:02.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which is like a Gatorade from there, a sports drink.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.03,0:02:05.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it also seems to be very good, right?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:05.12,0:02:06.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Girl: …dream. Always.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:06.66,0:02:09.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Pocari Sweat. Go Ion!
Dialogue: 0,0:02:13.21,0:02:15.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Rafael Fernandes: Well, but before starting to develop this game,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.79,0:02:19.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Uchida and his team known as Team Shinobi had worked
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.05,0:02:23.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in one of the greatest classics of the arcades and the Mega Drive: Altered Beast.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.73,0:02:26.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This explains a great artistic similarity between the two games,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:26.61,0:02:28.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,both the drawings and in the sounds.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:34.01,0:02:37.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There is also the presence in the two games of a very peculiar creature:
Dialogue: 0,0:02:37.65,0:02:39.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,known as Chicken Leg,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.55,0:02:42.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this animal that was a pretty boring enemy in Altered Beast
Dialogue: 0,0:02:42.24,0:02:44.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,became one of the mount options in Golden Axe.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:45.10,0:02:47.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it was not even that good, eh.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:47.81,0:02:50.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Another game developed by the same team is Alien Storm,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:50.55,0:02:55.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that in addition to throw in the face of the people that is a title developed by the Team Shinobi,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.36,0:02:58.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it also has the participation of the old Gilius Thunderhead.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:58.96,0:03:03.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Other games of Uchida's career include Die Hard Arcade, Dynamite Cop,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:03.58,0:03:07.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the Altered Beast remake for the PlayStation 2, uh…
Dialogue: 0,0:03:07.75,0:03:09.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not exactly the best moment of his career.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:18.84,0:03:22.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,A principal feature of all these games directed by Uchida
Dialogue: 0,0:03:22.49,0:03:25.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is that they always seem to draw inspiration from some Hollywood production.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:25.97,0:03:26.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Want to see?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.88,0:03:30.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Alien Storm, for example, looks a lot like the Ghostbusters;
Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.72,0:03:34.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Die Hard Arcade, is obviously inspired by Die Hard.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:34.63,0:03:36.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And in the case of Altered Beast? Look!
Dialogue: 0,0:03:36.92,0:03:40.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Amazingly, he took inspiration from Michael Jackson!
Dialogue: 0,0:03:40.74,0:03:44.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That famous short film Thriller (I spat here),
Dialogue: 0,0:03:44.04,0:03:46.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that video where the singer turns into a werewolf,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:46.59,0:03:48.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,made Uchida think about how to make a game
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.94,0:03:52.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that could portray these metamorphoses using graphic animation.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:01.52,0:04:04.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The director also took inspiration from a film called The Howling,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:04.46,0:04:06.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but it is much cooler to talk about Michael Jackson!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:06.28,0:04:07.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Michael Jackson: OWW!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:07.85,0:04:09.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Rafael Fernandes: Golden Axe, obviously,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:09.57,0:04:13.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,took references from the film Conan the Barbarian, from 1982,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:13.28,0:04:15.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:15.93,0:04:17.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The similarities do not end there,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:17.94,0:04:21.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Golden Axe still took a lot from Hollywood… Look!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:25.98,0:04:28.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the most interesting curiosity of Golden Axe
Dialogue: 0,0:04:28.32,0:04:31.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is about a controversy that has drawn attention in the recent months:
Dialogue: 0,0:04:31.33,0:04:35.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in one of those curiosities pages that kind of turned into a plague on Facebook,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:35.19,0:04:36.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,has the following information.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:37.22,0:04:40.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'll ask first to remove the children and sensitive people of the room,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:40.22,0:04:42.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because the following text is very strong.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:43.03,0:04:49.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"All the voices of Golden Axe were made by American prisoners on the death row."
Dialogue: 0,0:04:49.62,0:04:51.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Carlos Massa: STOP! STOP! STOP! STOP!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:52.06,0:04:54.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Rafael Fernandes: Wait, is this true?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:54.71,0:04:57.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Do the voices really are from innocent and poor prisoners
Dialogue: 0,0:04:57.71,0:05:00.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about to go through the worst pain of their lives?
Dialogue: 0,0:05:00.68,0:05:03.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Is Golden Axe a narrative metaphor
Dialogue: 0,0:05:03.36,0:05:05.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,protesting against the American prison system?
Dialogue: 0,0:05:06.15,0:05:09.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Luiz Carlos Alborghetti: NO! NO!
Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.26,0:05:11.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Rafael Fernandes: Of course not!
Dialogue: 0,0:05:11.57,0:05:14.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And go figure why someone would invent an absurd like that.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:14.78,0:05:15.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Stop to think:
Dialogue: 0,0:05:15.70,0:05:18.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,imagine the guy about to be executed,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:18.00,0:05:20.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and some Japanese with a microphone on the side
Dialogue: 0,0:05:20.49,0:05:22.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,ready to record the last gasp of the condemned?
Dialogue: 0,0:05:23.00,0:05:24.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,C'mon.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:24.71,0:05:29.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The truth is that the voices of Golden Axe were not recorded on the death row and not in the studios of Sega:
Dialogue: 0,0:05:30.27,0:05:32.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the screams were taken from the film Rambo.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:32.74,0:05:34.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's right, the first Rambo.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:34.48,0:05:35.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Look at this scene in the film.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:43.58,0:05:44.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And in the game…
Dialogue: 0,0:05:48.87,0:05:51.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Don't you get it? Le-Let's see it again then.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:06.46,0:06:08.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Heninger: Oh, God!
Dialogue: 0,0:06:08.67,0:06:09.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Shingleton: Uh?
Dialogue: 0,0:06:09.33,0:06:11.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Mitch: Oh, God!
Dialogue: 0,0:06:11.48,0:06:12.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Oh…
Dialogue: 0,0:06:12.44,0:06:14.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,>>Rafael Fernandes: Before you think that is just a case of coincidence,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:14.92,0:06:16.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or that the Sega sound engineer only
Dialogue: 0,0:06:16.70,0:06:19.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,used the same voices database of the sound technician of Rambo,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:19.48,0:06:20.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pay close attention.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:20.98,0:06:24.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There is a helicopter sound in the background of the guy scream, right?
Dialogue: 0,0:06:29.94,0:06:32.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, listen carefully to the same scream in the game
Dialogue: 0,0:06:32.80,0:06:35.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and notice that it's possible to hear the sound of the helicopter here too.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:35.66,0:06:40.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Amplified audio]
Dialogue: 0,0:06:40.01,0:06:41.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it not stopped there.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:41.07,0:06:45.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The direct sequence of Golden Axe, released only in arcades in 1992,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:45.77,0:06:49.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,copied the sound effects from the film Conan itself, take a look.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:02.18,0:07:05.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, after this story of prisoners, let's stop to think:
Dialogue: 0,0:07:05.35,0:07:08.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,why and for what they invented a nonsense like these, huh?
Dialogue: 0,0:07:08.47,0:07:09.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Go figure.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:10.09,0:07:12.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's why it is not good to believe in everything we see on the Web.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:16.57,0:07:17.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But one thing is certain:
Dialogue: 0,0:07:17.81,0:07:20.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if the screams are from prisoners or not, it does not matter.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:20.92,0:07:22.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Golden Axe is still a classic,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:22.84,0:07:26.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,impossible to get bored with it, and still arouses a lot of nostalgia.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:26.35,0:07:30.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's a shame that Sega spat, stepped and rolled over the series,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:30.18,0:07:33.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and now it worth less than a piece of dung.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:33.56,0:07:35.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The way then is to remember the old days.
