Santa Claus Saves the Earth is the 12th episode of the original incarnation of The Caddicarus Show and a follow-up of Klonoa: I Can't Pronounce this Game. This review was Caddicarus' first Christmas special and the last episode of Season 1.
Background[]
Santa Claus Saves the Earth is produced by Telegames (the same company behind Rascal Racers) and was released for the original PlayStation in 2002. Caddicarus mentions this near the end of the review and criticizes that fact as well.
Synopsis[]
"DAMN YOU RASCAL RACERS!"
The episode resumes off from when Caddicarus discovers that Rascal Racers is missing from his shelf. He then hears his doorbell ring, which confuses Caddy because they don't buy or sell at his house. He finds Santa Claus Saves the Earth on his doorstep and also sees Rascal Racers outside, and proceeds to follow it before it vanishes and leaves Caddy in anguish. He then proceeds to play Santa Claus Saves the Earth, which manages to be worse than Rascal Racers.
The game got the slaughter. Unfortunately, Caddicarus had to "shoot" his PS one as well since "the game's infection... already consumed [the PS one.]" He then proceeds to bury his "beloved" PS one in a playground to the song "Love is Gone" from The Muppets Christmas Carol.
Trivia[]
- The story of this episode would be followed up in his later reviews, "The Simpsons: Tony Hoax Skateboarding," and "The Grinch".
- The line that plays when Caddicarus starts the first level: "Look at this f**king sh*t!" was taken from another YouTube video: Youtube Poop: Nickelsh!t Write a Song About Bodily Functions by cs188.
- The video was later blocked in some countries due to copyright issues. Caddy explained that it was due to him using an excerpt from The Muppets Christmas Carol in his ending scene, and that he can't cut that scene out as it would "take away the joke, and just ruin the whole video."
- This would later lead him to make a "Drive-Thru Review" of the GBA version for those who couldn't see the original review, and the version included in the Complete Season 1 compilation replaces the song with a different instrumental track.
