This is a very dramatic women's college basketball game between the Illinois Fighting Illini and the Utah Utes in NCAA March Madness 2001 on the PS1. In Men's Division I Basketball, Illinois has never won the NCAA National Championship while Utah has won it all.
For YouTubers who did Thomas & Friends remakes of episodes or specials (excluding Thomas and the Magic Railroad) in the model era with toys like Thomas Wooden Railway who are no longer around like Camscott, Rboffill or Henryfan88 or even YouTubers that are still around, hearing their remakes with the Japanese dub (minus most of Series 12 and Jack and the Pack) would sound a lot better than either English dub because in the model era, it feels much better in every way to hear separate voice actors for the characters as opposed to the narrator voicing every character which makes it feel like a scripted TV show, most notably with the vocal range, emotion, tone and many other things that you can think of with a perfect example being that the group lines sound more realistic where you actually hear more than one character speaking at once which feels a lot better. Imagine a scenario where children watch the Japanese dub of Thomas & Friends in the model era and as they react to separate voice actors for the characters, they think of how they should've always done that in either English dub, especially if they have seen kids' stuff for animated movies and TV stuff that did so. I've seen a lot of kids' stuff in terms of animated television and animated movies, along with English dubs of foreign stuff like anime and Studio Ghibli films where they DID use separate voice actors for the characters, even if they didn't use a narrator which makes it feel scripted so they give an idea of what either English dub of Thomas & Friends would've been like in the model era if they had gone in the direction of the Japanese dub.
I recently deleted the videos I recorded of myself playing the Japanese PS2 version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone and I have no desire to play it ever again because I suffered too much from it and Theenglishman has a good point why you shouldn't play the 2003 release of Sorcerer's Stone and you should play the PS1 & PC versions instead. Aside from NitsuaGamer's videos of it, the only videos I ever watch of it are the two from Theenglishman which explain it all as to why it sucks with one being B Roll footage and the other being a review of it which you can see here:
B-Roll footage of GameCube version - youtube.com/watch?v=9DxNopN6_R4&t=1588s
GameCube Review of it - youtube.com/watch?v=za7xREwBKMI&t=67s
I can easily see Theenglishman telling YouTubers like NitsuaGamer, SuperSajuuk, HogwartsisHome, ZeppelinG1993, RedGuy2764, Movie to Video Game Reviews, Camp Xbox, myself and so many others why they made a big mistake playing the 2003 release of the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone video game and why they should've avoided it instead.
I will record footage of the Japanese PS1 version of Sorcerer's Stone and post it onto YouTube one day which will look great with DuckStation because I'll be able to upscale the graphics. As always, the PS1 & PC versions of Sorcerer's Stone are pretty much better in every way than the NGC, PS2 & Xbox versions.
The PS1, PC, GBA & GBC versions of Chamber of Secrets do a great job giving players a brand new experience from what the Sorcerer's Stone video game was like on their respective platforms. That's why the NGC, PS2 & Xbox versions of Sorcerer's Stone should've gone in that direction by giving players a brand experience from the PS2 version of Chamber of Secrets instead of being a reskin of that game. You can use the 2004 video game Spider-Man 2 for reference because when you compare that game to the 2002 Spider-Man video game, you easily notice a lot of differences between the two so it does a great job giving players a brand new experience.
It's too annoying to hear Harry talk every time he collects a bean, a collectible or a recovery item (except a Potion Ingredient or Chocolate Frog) in the 2003 release of the Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. The way to fix that would be to only get text for the bean flavors like in the GameCube & Xbox versions of Chamber of Secrets and have Harry mention what the collectible or recovery item only the first time and whenever he collects them again, he never speaks. That would prevent him from getting annoying. It's one of the worst video games I've ever played that I could only reach the ending once. I found a lot of bugs and glitches within the game and it froze on me several times. I can easily see the YouTuber Always Nerdy taking his anger out on the game while interviewing a former Warthog developer as to what happened while he would explain what they SHOULD have done differently to give players a brand new experience from Chamber of Secrets.
I plan to upload more videos of college basketball video games on the PS1.
