Worst Game Ever Made - Big Rigs Over the Road Racing - INNOCENT Until Proven Guilty!

Court is now in session for another viewer
requested episode of Innocent Until Proven Guilty! Todays case is one of the most requested
and I can fully understand why. During my research, I saw that this has a
Metacritic score of 8. To put that in perspective, Sonic 06 has
a 46. Sonic 06 is considered to be one of the
worst games ever made, yet IGN, EGM, and 1UP all deemed it to be better than this.

That is justI dont even know what to
say about that. Ive covered some stinkers before, but thisthis
is a whole new level of potential badness. Well, I love a good challenge, so its time
to bring Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing to trial! The infamous Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing
from GameMill Publishing was released on November 20, 2003. If the Wikipedia article is to be believed,
it has a very interesting story.

Big Rigs was apparently developed in the Ukraine
by the California based Stellar Stone to reduce costs. Whether thats true or not, I dont know,
but there are Ukrainian sounding names in the credits section, which lends credibility
to that idea. From what Ive experienced, I can definitely
believe that it was produced by a small crew on a shoe string budget, sincewelltheres
not much to it. The title screen shows that there are only
two main modes: Custom Race and Random Race.

Random Race is self-explanatory in that the
course and vehicle are pre-selected, whereas Custom leaves the selection up to the player. There are four trucks at our disposal, with
such monikers as Thunder and Thunderbull. How creative. The semis can be driven over fiveermake
that four courses, including Devil Passage and Devil Passage 2.

Remember what I said about the trucks? That goes double for the courses. Anyway, with the race created, lets hit
the road and satisfy our need for speed. Here we go! Oh, okaythis is certainly somethingI
dont know what that something is, but it exists and Im playing it. First of all, theres no music, which is
not uncommon for the genre.

Spirit of Speed 1937 also lacked any music
except a menu song. However, Spirit of Speed at least had engine
roars, this has nothing. Its entirely devoid of audio in spite of
Alex Burton receiving a credit for it. My brainit hurtsmust move on.

As far as the visuals go, its a deceptive
mess. Big Rigs is adequate upon initial inspections,
but once we spend more time with it, the glaring issues rear their ugly head. I mean, just look at this. Look at it! Its ridiculous, but also kind of funny.

Still, I feel bad for anyone that spent hard
earned money on this. The presentation is nightmare inducing, but
the controls are fairly average. The vehicle is maneuvered via the arrow keys:
Up accelerates and goes forward, Down or the space key reverse and brake, and Left and
Right go in those respective directions. Finally, C changes the camera angle, which
is completely useless, so dont even bother with it.

The objective of the game is to win the race,
if you can call it that. There is one rival semi, but it never leaves
the starting line, so the competition is non-existent. This is in stark contrast to the back of the
boxs claim that were running away from the law and hauling drugs or other illegal
contents. As should have been obvious long before now,
none of this is in Big Rigs, so this is false advertising at its finest.

In reality, we move forward through checkpoints
until we get to the goal and were rewarded with a trophy, which is accompanied with the
iconic text Youre Winner. That isamazing and I love it so much. After winning the trophy, we go back to the
title screen and try out a different course. If itll let you, that is, because it will
occasionally bug out and announce that were the winner from the start.

During my travels into the void, I noticed
an abandoned helicopter, which I found to be quite fascinating. I started to ponder about why it was there
and I devised the theory that Big Rigs is set in a post-apocalyptic future with our
trucker being the sole remaining occupant. That would explain why the rival remains idlethere
arent any humans left to compete against. Clearly this wasnt Stellar Stones intentions,
but when its examined in that context, it makes it way creepier and cool.

Speaking of cool, I saved the best part for
lastthe reverse speed glitch. Holding the Up arrow and progressing as normal
maxes out around 80mph, but holding Down basically breaks the space time continuum. The vehicle can somehow withstand the force
of several billion miles per hour, jerking about like a ragdoll in the process, yet it
can also stop at the drop of a hat as if nothing had happened. There is a limit, though, and it occurs around
the 50 minute mark.

If its pushed to that point, the semi will
implode, the meter will bust, and well be given the Youre Winner trophy. Its insanity and is proof that Stellar
Stone didnt quality test before shipping their product. Regardless, I cant help but find this to
be amusing. All things considered, its barely a game
and is a rip-off at any cost over $10, but that right therethats gold.

SoBig Rigsthat exists and I honestly
cant comprehend how that is. Nearly every other publisher would have cancelled
or retooled a project such as this, but apparently Stellar Stones work met the quality standards. Its buggy, its unfinished and it has
many traits that make it worthy of its reputation, but is it without redemption? Lets find out in the breakdown! I really dont have to say anything here. Big Rigs is guilty.

You know it. I know it. I thought Spirit of Speed was bad, but this
makes it look like Daytona USA. At least the LJN Dreamcast oddity has the
appearance of being decent.

This, on the other hand, is broken and riddled
with design flaws. Hell, theres a course that is unplayable
and crashes as soon as its chosen. Ill close by repeating what I said at the
beginning: it has a Metacritic score of 8 and Sonic 06 has a 46. That speaks volumes.

I rest my case. I cant deny that this is buggy and unfinished. Thats true, but that doesnt mean its
not fun. There is some enjoyment to be had from this,
especially when keeping my theory in mind while doing so.

Plowing unphased through buildings and obstacles
and reversing into oblivion is hilarious, but the novelty does wear thin quickly. Is Big Rigs good? Far from it, but is it as horrible as its
claimed to be? Sort of, but it does have some entertainment
value. There are definitely worse things to waste
a few minutes on. Plus, it provides a nice self-confidence boost.

I am winner! Thanks, Big Rigs! In the case of Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing,
I rule that the verdict isGuilty! Im sure Ill get comments saying this
was predictable, but there was no other option than guilty. This is barely a game and as much as I get
a kick out of the reverse speed glitch, its a design flaw that shouldnt have seen the
light of day. If this was an unreleased prototype, that
would be excusable, but Big Rigs hit store shelves at retail price and thats almost
criminal to imagine. If you want to try it, do what I did and download
it online for free.

I had no luck finding a cheap copy for sale,
so that is the only reasonable option. Anyway, thats a wrap on this highly anticipated
IUPG episode. Come back next week for the return of the
LJN Defender, but until then, and until the next case, court is now adjourned!.

Times I Plagiarized

I almost lost a thousand-dollar scholarship
because of plagiarism. Let's talk about that. [Ripoff Good Mythical Morning Intro] Plagiarism. Adverb.

The practice of taking someone else's work or ideas
and passing them off as one's own. [Closes book] Just the word plagiarism sounds like a crime. Racism, sexism, and plagiarism. I'm not here to talk about people who repost my comics, JPEG'd, cut my name off, and have the audacity to put their own watermark on, nah nah nah NAH,
not that kind of plagiarism.

I'm gonna tell you about all the times that I plagiarized,
in school. And, OK, just off topic, I wanna
address something publicly. I don't go looking through other people's comics and go: "Oh, this comic's funny! I'm gonna redraw it
and pass it off as my own!" No, I'm not about that life. But some of my comics have been very similar
to other people's comics.

I read a lot of comics, so it's possible I saw them
and then repressed them in my memory and drew them again, or it's possible that it's all a coincidence and me and
someone else just came up with the same idea, it happens all the time with other cartoonists,
not just me. Again, I don't purposely take comic ideas and
try and pass them off as my own. Whenever people point out that my comic is a lot like
someone else's, I get really sad. So you guys should check out these other
cartoonists, they're really good.

Anyway, I just wanted to say that at the
beginning of the video, because I'm gonna be telling you about times that I
actually DID plagiarize. But that was just in school, OK? I keep plagiarism off the Internet. Isn't that right, Matthew? I cheated a bit in school. An occasional glance at my partner's desk, maybe jot down that important equation
on my hand, nothing TOO big.

I had a Math Class where we went to Lunch
in the middle of the class, and whenever we had tests, the teacher wouldn't
split the test into two parts. Dff-- Do you expect us NOT to exchange notes? The first time that I got caught cheating
was in 9th grade. And if you stalk me and watch my old videos,
you know that I went to a preparatory school my freshman year. And in preparatory school, the amount of work
they gave you as kids was just STUPID! So cut me some slack.

In one class, we had to write an essay about
something historical? Or something? And I chose to write about the Berlin Wall. Specifically about people who escaped
ACROSS the Berlin Wall. Now I chose this topic because... I don't know
if you know this, but there's a National Geographic documentary
about this exact topic.

So I didn't copy and paste anything into my essay,
per say. It's just I told the exact same stories in the
exact same order as the documentary, and, OK, I might wrote some things down
word for word. But at least I didn't plagiarize it from Wikipedia, OK? So I didn't copy and paste anything... ...Until I had to write the conclusion of the essay.

And I found this article talking about it, and the article
said some things that would've been PERFECT in my essays, sooooooooooo..... Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V. I turned it in, I didn't think too much of it, but then when I got it BACK, the conclusion paragraph
had been highlighted, and a "see me" was written next to it. So I had gotten in trouble for plagiarizing
the conclusion.

Just the conclusion... Nothing. Else. To be honest, I'd kinda forgotten that I copied
and pasted the conclusion.

I thought he knew that I basically turned in the
script of a documentary. The teacher who we'll call "Mr. Batman" (it makes sense if you knew him) He took me outside of the classroom, he told me
that it was bad that I plagiarized, and he called my parents, that freaking snitch. My parents got mad at me too.

He gave me a chance to rewrite the essay,
and I remember just being so traumatised and stressed out that night. I kept thinking: "What if he finds the documentary
and sees that I practically plagiarized the whole essay?" I ended up rewriting not only the conclusion,
but the whole freaking essay. I turned in the new essay, and I don't think he ever
found out that I copied the whole thing. Except, I did just admit it.

And
he watches my videos. Seriously, in April he emailed me and asked if
I was the same James that was in his class. He's the only teacher to ever reach out to me. And even after all those years, I still didn't tell
him that I plagiarized the whole thing.

So... ...Hi Mr. Batman. Uhh, you can't change my grade now, can you? But that was a good experience for me to have.

It taught me a valuable lesson. Because I didn't plagiarize a single essay
for the rest of High School. But then Community College rolled around. I did Community College for a bit, because I couldn't
afford university on a Subway payroll.

I took honors and A.P. Classes in High School,
I was a relatively good student. Except I didn't take any of the A.P. Tests.

So when I went to Community College, I had to take
classes that were a step BELOW the classes I took in High School. What a GREAT way to spend my time! Senior Year of English, we were writing essays and
analyzing poetry. Freshman Year of College, we were writing movie reviews. And the teacher didn't even like me, she thought I was
a slacker because I was never paying attention.

I didn't take Community College seriously, but
it was so easy, I was still getting amazing grades. On the third semester of Community College, I took
a Public Speaking class. Now I might be an introvert, but I don't have a problem with Public Speaking. That's part of my job now! I took the class because I thought it would be an easy A, and I needed a communications credit for my major, I wanted to be a Math teacher, and you may not have
noticed, but they publicly speak ALL the time.

So I take the class, I'm like the best person
in the class, right. And for the final we had to give a persuasive speech
in front of everyone. Oh, and by the way, I didn't learn like, ANY tricks to help
with Public Speaking. The whole class was literally just us giving speeches
to each other over and over.

So three semesters of doing easy classes and
wasting my time, my apathy meters were just off the charts. I didn't wanna work too hard, so I chose to do my
speech on why we should get rid of the penny. And, I don't know if you know this, but there's this
YouTube video made by CGP Grey, that makes great arguments on why we Americans should get rid
of the penny. AGAIN, I didn't copy and paste anything per say, it's just the speech I gave had the exact same
arguments in the exact same order as CGP Grey.

OK, it was pretty much a one for one recreation
of his whole video. I'm sorry! I thought we were getting graded on Public Speaking,
not writing original speeches! The teacher caught me, I guess she's a fan of CGP Grey. And gave me a 0 on the final. So I ended up getting a D in the class! And that was the worst grade I got
in Community College.

Part of me was like: Pfft! What-what-whatever. [Sniff] I don't- I don't care... This next semester though, I wanted to go to
a REAL college. And still trying to be economical, I found that it was
actually cheaper for me to an out of state school, than to go in state.

At this school, they gave scholarships to out of state
students who had high enough GPAs and enough credits. It would've saved me THOUSANDS of dollars. And I had family living in this state, so that
was another reason why I wanted to go to that school. But here's the thing.

Even with that D, I still had a high enough GPA
to get the scholarship, but since I failed, it didn't count as a credit. So I ended up being ONE credit short for
what was required. PLAGIARIZING WAS GOING TO COST ME
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS! My options were either: Stay home and do a 1 credit semester
of Community College, or beg the university to give me my scholarship anyway. During Christmas, my family visited the state the
school was in.

So me and my dad got the chance to go to the school,
and basically talk our way into getting the scholarship. We talked to five different people, now THAT'S
Public Speaking. I had to use my persuasive talking skills
that I would've learned! And all of them were telling us: "There's nothing we can do." But we were talking to one lady, she was telling us
the same thing about not being able to do anything. She looked at my transcript.

She said: "Oh, you failed Public Speaking." She looked at it for a bit, she'd type something on her computer, she printed out a piece of paper and handed it to
me saying: "It's OK, I'm not good at Public Speaking either." SHI-- SHE THOUGHT I WAS BAD AT PUBLIC SPEAKING! She thought I failed 'cause I was insecure or
something, and not 'cause I did something WRONG. Oh, uhh... ...Yeah! I'm just terrible at speaking to the public... So really, there WAS something you could do.

I got the scholarship, because a lady wearing
eye shadow took pity on me. But I only ended up staying a semester and a half
at that school, because my YouTube kicked off. And now I'm doing that full-time. But I'm still thankful I got the scholarship! I hope my Public Speaking teacher could
see where I am now.

I speak in front of MILLIONS of people for my JOB. I mean, I can't see them, and I'm just reading everything
off a script, in my closet. And I didn't get punished for plagiarism! I didn't learn my lesson. And I didn't learn anything in your class.

CGP Grey, if you're watching, I just wanted to say,
I'm sorry I plagiarized your essay. But, it almost cost me thousands of dollars. But it didn't so... Remember kids, don't plagiarize.

It could cost ya. It didn't cost me anything though. Okay, so there's been some updates to the store. It looks different, we got some new products, and for Black Friday, some things are
gonna be on sale this week.

Shipping to America is now gonna be cheaper,
because it's not international priced. And it's been confirmed that we will be able to ship
the plushies before Christmas. Even if you order one right now, and if everything
goes according to plan, then they should ship and arrive before Christmas. But I mean, like, you have to order them soon, you know
what I'm saying? You can't just order 'em on Christmas Eve.

Check out the store, link in the description. Thanks for watching, I hope my voice doesn't
sound too tired. It's 3 in the morning. Let's just get this over with, don't plagiarize, and wear your seatbelt..

This Race Car Driver Is Defying Stereotypes at 200 Miles Per Hour

I am truly an activist first and a race car driver second. When I get into the race car and I pull the helmet on my head, It all just disappears. Its a sport where the intense mental focus is what I love and just the insane adrenaline that you have going into a corner at 200 miles an hour with cars inches from you. My motto is: Never underestimate a vegan hippie chick with a race car.

So youve probably seen NASCAR. When youre flipping through the channels and all of our cars are covered in logos. Theres a bacon car, theres oil companies, there's candy bars, theres fast food companies. When you see me on the track Im oftentimes carrying a message about clean energy, solar power, wind power, a future with 100 percent
renewable energy, which is absolutely possible.

I drove the first ever vegan-themed race car. My cars are unique. The messages that I carry on them are asking people to do something good for our planet and for the animals that we share it with. I get to see both sides.

I live in the world of environmentalists and then I also live in the world of racing. I know people have this stereotype of a NASCAR
fan with the beer belly and the NASCAR shirt, but I find that race fans are far more
open to these messages than people would think. I was at Daytona and I was giving away vegan food and this guy came up with his son. They were both dressed in camouflage from
head to toe.

They had clearly taken a break from their hunting trip to swing down to Daytona. He tried my vegan chicken wings and he just looked at me and he was like, "That is not meat?" "That is amazing!" And he actually came back to the tent for more. It was just so funny for me to see this
man from his hunting trip eating my vegan food and loving it. That is truly something I never could have
made happen if I didnt have the race car.

I want to see every race car running on either electricity or renewable biofuels. Every racetrack powered with 100 percent solar or wind. Every race track concession stand offering vegan food to the race fans. I want to see every racing tire recycled.

I would love to see every kind of sport have
somebody who is speaking up and rocking the boat. We need activists to be basketball
players and football players. I  do think sports figures have a responsibility to try and make the world a better place..

Things to Do In GTA V - Rabbit Jump XRooster Teeth

Heyy Things to do! Gavin, Geoff's talking. Shut up! Geoff please. Thank you. Do you guys remember when we did things to do: rabbit jump? Yup.

Oh yeah that was amazing. Well,  what if we threw an X on the end of it? Aw, shit. Things to do rabbit jump X, on your mark, get set, go. Wait, what? Go! Wait, go this way.

What are we rabbit jumping? You'll see in a second. Guess we'll find out. Is there an X on it? Ohhhh, holy shit. Wow.

I didn't die. That was amazing. Oh I lived. I almost lived..

The Truth Behind Angora Fur

Every year, stores stock their aisles with angora sweaters and accessories, but few people know exactly how this fur is obtained. As you can see in this undercover footage, factory-farm workers violently rip the fur right out of rabbits skin as they scream in pain. These gentle, sensitive animals are often in such extreme shock after having their fur yanked out that they may be unable to move inside their tiny, filthy cages. Finally, after enduring this cruelty about every three months for two to five years, their throats are slit and theyre skinned.

Rabbits who have their fur cut or sheared also suffer. During the cutting process, their front and back legs are tightly tethered, a terrifying experience for a prey animal, and the cutting tools invariably wound them as they struggle desperately to escape. About 90 percent of the worlds angora comes from China, where there are no penalties for animal abuse on rabbit farms and no standards that regulate the treatment of animals. In nature, these animals would spend their lives grazing, digging burrows, playing, and enjoying the company of other rabbits opportunities denied those raised and killed for angora.

You can help stop this cruelty. When youre buying a sweater, please read the label, and if it says angora, leave it on the rack. Thank you..

The tortoise and the hare - Stories for Kids

Once upon a time there was a hare who boasting he can run faster than any one else is forever teasing tortoise  for his slowness  then, one day the irated tortoise answered back who do you think you are? There's no denying you are swift but even you can be beaten! The hare squealed with laughter!! Beaten in a race ? By whom ? Not you surely I bet there is nobody in the world that can win against me, I am so speedy... Now why don't you try? Annoyed by such bragging,the tortoise accepted the challenge a course is planned, and the next day at dawn, they stood at starting line. The hare yawned sleepily, as the meek tortoise tried to slowly off when the hare saw how painfully slow his rival was he decided, half  asleep on his feet, to have quick nap. "Take your time" he said..

I will have forty winks and catch up with you in minute. The hare woke with a start from fitful sleep and gazed around,  looking for the tortoise but the creature is only a short distance away having barely covered the third of the course. Waiting aside, relieved. The hare decides, he might  as well have his breakfast too..

And off he went to munch some cabbages he noticed in a near by field but the heavy meal and hot sun made his eye lashes droop with a careless glance of the tortoise, now half way along the course he decided to have another snooze before flashing past the winning post.. And smiling at the thought of the look on tortoise's face when it saw the hare speed by, he fell asleep and was soon snoring happily the sun started to sink below the horizon and the tortoise, who have been plotting towards the winning post since morning now scarsely a yard from the finish at that very point the hare woke with a jolt he could see the tortoise a speck in a distance and away he rashed he left and bounded at a great rate his tongue longing and gasping for breath just a little more and he be first at the finish but the hare's last leap was just too late. The tortoise had beaten him to the wining post poor hare tired and in disgrace he slumped down beside the tortoise who was silently smiling at him.. "Slow and steady does it every time" he said Turtle Interactive.
