After a 2+ year hiatus the Rise and Fall series is back and this time we're looking at a infamously terrible game company by the name of DDI or Data Design Interactive. Why? Well the video will explain the reason for me choosing this company over others like Acclaim, Rare, or Neversoft...
Regardless this video is primarily composed of gameplay footage from various youtubers as it would be virtually impossible for me to capture even half of the footage on my own. Also keep in mind how much longer it would have taken me to make the video in the event i did have to record all my own footage for these games. This video would have never been released.

Anyway this video was technically going to be about 42 minutes in my rough draft edit. In order not to make the video ridiculously long i did cut off some of the fat. For example

1. I talked more in detail about conflicting information not only with the original company Data Design Systems but with DDI as well. The problem i kept running into was whether or not the companies had anything to do with the actual games. That and release dates were never consistent.

2. I talked a little more in depth about the Ninjabread man, rock & roll adventures, and Anubis 2 debacle. Technically the games did have different levels amongst the pair however the Tutorial levels were all carbon copies of each other. I should have kept this in to be honest so as to not confuse the viewing audience

3. There was a part in the middle where i talked more about how DDI seemed to only make Racing games. I felt this was redundant to keep harping about.

4. Talked more about asset flips and mentioned game companies and games that were known for this act. I removed this section as i felt this was NOT the video to be bringing all that up. Plus it didn't exactly fit in with DDI at all outside of the general idea of recycling the same assets in their games.
