You know what's depressing? Sometime after Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2's release, Activision dropped Vicarious Visions as a subsidiary and placed them under Blizzard's parentage, where they would later be renamed to Blizzard Albany. Earlier this year, Tony Hawk himself confirmed that they were working on THPS 3+4 before this transition happened, and that the game was canceled as a result.

I can't believe you're one of those "EA bad PopCap good" types of people. Everyone has their own opinions, but saying that it's EA's fault if PvZ2 is the "worst sequel of all time"? Really man? You can easily beat the entire Adventure mode without spending a single penny. "If you want to experience the full game, you're going to have to spend a lot of money"? Flat out lies. If you want to support the game and/or buy a plant for some more fun, then you are free to do so, but it's not obligatory at all.
The renting plants thing you were talking about is also totally wrong. You can either buy a plant with real money and keep it FOREVER or rent a random plant (from a selection of 3 randoms) at the start of a level by watching 1 ad. Do your research.

Don't let the nostalgia you had with PvZ1 ruin your experience with PvZ2.

[GritterTheBuckethead]

His PvZ2 section is his Bioshock 2 video all over again. Spreading blatant misinformation like it’s candy on Halloween. Both that one, and this video have gotten backlash for a very good reason.

About PvZ2 ranking on this list
Okay just for missinformed people to make fool out of themself here is comparasion on what EA and Popcap did in PvZ2 and how PvZ2 was exposed as in this video
What EA did:
-Just published it
-Nothing else really
What Popcap did:
-Made whole game
-Put microtransactions and ads(it's free2play game what do you expect?)
-Made a shit ton of additional content for players who want to experience more than base game
How PvZ2 was exposed in this video:
-"pOpCaP GoOd eA BaD"
-Rent a Plant is just buying a plant for few levels
-Been a cash grab
-EA took in making the game
-Parts of game are locked bechind paywall
-Good plants are locked bechind a paywall
Whole game is pay2win
-More rant on how this game is cash grab
-And more untrue information about the whole game
People who actually defended PvZ2 props to you. You gave valid arguments on debunking on how it was put in whole put in wrong light.

Plants vs Zombies 2 is actually a very good game, if you can find a way to get past the microtransactions. Luckily there is a modded version of the game that simultaneously removes the microtransactions and adds more to the game called "PvZ2: Reflorished." It shows how the core of Plants vs Zombies is still present in the game, just buried by anti-consumer business decisions.

[adweck]

PvZ2 is possible without spending money, power ups, plant food, lawn mowers so you just suck. Also when you actually buy a plant IT'S NOT TEMPORARY, you literally have it for all your profiles. Actually me and many other people liked pvz2 more than pvz1

[clementchuah]

Love how this comment section got bombed by PVZ2 veterans and YouTubers. I'm laughing my ass out how hard small YouTubers/gamers lately are 10 times better than any of these mainstream YouTubers and their "opinions and research" literally. Great job for your effort on making this L video.

[Justcommentinhere]

You dont have to pay for PvZ 2 to get full experience... (also when you buy a plant you will have it forever, I see that research is for losers)

[wackywakko]

I'm sorry Jirard but your take of pvz2 is straight out 100% crap
First of all no Renting plants are used by watching an ad if you want to use the premium plant permanently you can purchase it and you'll keep it forever
2. You can beat the game without spending a single dime
3. You showed footage of the 2013 version of the game making us think you didn't play the game at all
4. All worlds can be unlocked by progression not money
last but not least Ea didn't add the monetization on the game popcap did since the beginning.
And also you're showing the old beta pvz 3 so you made your points even worse
seriously dude all you did is throwing massive amounts of misinformation on the game to make the game look worse not cool jirard not cool

[agentmanface]

I hate the fact that people say “EA=bad Popcap=good without doing any research, if hey did, they would discover the fact that wow It was Popcap’s decision to add in micro transactions. And trashing the game even though it’s arguably worth the ads for the experience

[Slimeakku]

Saying PvZ2 has temporary paywall plants is just a straight up lie, there is nothing like that at all in the game. In modern versions you can rent a premium plant by watching an ad but there is no paywall plant renting.

Also I don't know why you claim PvZ2 has lock and key design as being something bad, because that's also not true, and it's quite ironic you don't like it here but PvZ1's entire gameplay loop is you are given a plant to then counter a zombie that is introduced.

[chrisamus]

Self proclaimed "free thinkers" when you ask them what ruined Plants vs. Zombies 2 (it's always greedy EA with their dumb and stupid microtransactions that PopCap totally had absolutely no verdict over):

[toferj]

You know what's really sad? That most of the worst games are presented due to monetization or developmental issues, and not gameplay issues. For some reason, that really speaks towards the types of games we're getting these days.

[GNVS]

Making up a mechanic about PVZ2 having premium plants rented for real money and then following it up with 'this is some deadass bullshit' is one of the most hilariously ironic things I've heard in quite some time.

[milanesadearsenico]

PvZ2 problems were PopCap's thing, it has been proven EA has barely control over it and PopCap manages most of the game.

[theshero]

PvZ2 is a much more financially and more stable and successful game than pvz1. It is literally so stable and well-made that it is the last stick holding the company to stay alive as of today. It brought countless new fans from the mobile ecosystem, much more zombie, musical, world, map and plant content than pvz1, and EA buying it funded Popcap to make all the new worlds plus the modern content and over 150 plants that they made. EA buying Popcap also caused Popcap to have the opportunity to make something really grand, the shooter games, which you completely dismissed and left out just to feed your "EA bad" rampage. I don't like EA's games of Star Wars and FIFA and all that nonsense, but them buying Popcap was the best thing happening to the franchise, because it was falling apart in money management at the time EA bought the company, which you would've discovered if you made an attempt at any research of the company's state.

What you said about premium plants being purchasable with real money """"temporarily"""" is complete utter misinformation, misinformation so outlandish and ridiculous that it indicates to the fact that you probably never even touched the game. Plants are purchased permanently when using real money, and many, many premium plants actually became purchasable with seed-packet grinding in the modern online battling system instead of having to spend money on them; the premium plants don't even drastically change your experience because the free ones are just as good and variated and there is 15x more times of free plants compared to premiums. You literally used 2013 footage by the presence of power pinch and lack of turbo button, which says to how outdated your information, views and ideas are about the game. At least have the decency to experience the game itself in the modern day, actually play through what you're ranking. Don't tell me you had this 2013 footage you made yourself prepared for this exact video 9 years later.

You also defame the whole game to be just a lock and key puzzle game between countering exact zombies with exact plants, and that plants are hidden behind microtransactions, which is also outright straight up shining high in the sky misinformation, no zombie or plant comes close to this, let alone premium ones, neither do any world mechanics. Disgusting. You aren't a PvZ fan if you just desert the franchise and spread misinformation about it at the sight of reading EA as a publisher, and what you just did with your 1.6mil subscriber influence is just incorrectly shit on the franchise like all the other soulless videos speaking misinformation about the game just because it got EA on the title. Expected better as I know of your content to be well-made and informed.


Links shadow banned my previous comment, so whoops! Just look up "The Oral History Of PopCap Games" to find out why they added microtransactions and to discover the fact microtransactions weren't even EA's idea.

[ImaGreenBoi]

You don't Pay in PvZ2 For a Plant and then it goes away, that's not how Games (the good ones) Work. since the game release a lot of plants were Only available via Purchase, but now they are Removing that so you can get Plants by getting a Specific Currency when playing the game to unlock that specific plant, yeah not all of those plants were reworked that way, but the game has an insane amount of plants at this point and you aren't going to use all of them anyways so who cares for a Plant You can only can get By Wasting Money

[JHStar]

Mario Party 9 was a rough one for me. My friends and I loved playing the first 8, but the gameplay changes to 9 (especially the car everyone rode together in) were just too much. It was a different game at that point.

[kevincarter]

In Battlefront 2s defense: the game ended in a really good place and was a blast by the time they stopped supporting it.

[fprogamer]

I swear, every single large youtuber that touches PvZ2 does a total of 25 seconds of research into the topic before making a video acting like they know the series inside-out.

I normally quite like your content, but the PvZ2 segment is just... how little have you played the actual game? Even with most of *PopCap's* questionable recent decisions, the game is still mediocre at worst, yet because it contains *optional microtransactions plants (which would not receive nearly as much hate if they were marketed as DLC, I might add)* that aren't essential to progress at all.

If someone sucks at the game so much that they're resorting to using Premiums, no amount of Grapeshot or Cold Snapdragon abuse can be enough of a crunch to help them.
