I like how almost every criticism Brad levied at Mario Kart for Best Looking could be thrown back at his GTA arguments. And no one did! Brad cannot be stopped.

Yeah. I particularly liked his "You've barely played an hour of it" when Brad has never touched Mario Kart outside of one Quick Look and one UPF, all in split-screen mode

 

[super-famicom]

It's all Dan's fault. I'm not surprised. And the speed at which he whips out the N64 is great.

Alex totally should have put on a luchador mask on instead of the bowl.

 

[Massa]

Drive club might place in most broken game or something.

Nope, Halo came out.

 

[forgeforsaken]

Need to implement future rule that late video evidence cant be submitted after proceedings begin. Cause that's what happened there lulz

Game totally deserves the win.

I liked the bowl. It had a classic movie feel.

 

[Backfoggen]

Nope, Halo came out.

Nope, AC Unity came out.

 

[MixedUpzombies]

He's a writer though, generalising it as "bad" is pretty poor form.

in a video? He does think it is a bad game. He likes the least game parts of it the most.
And for the record he has explained himself when he is not in a room with 6 other men all talking over a game.

 

[Jintor]

I'm not done yet but holy shit this fucking Recap Video

I can't tell if I want this bit to continue over tentire week or have a new thing every day

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Sour Patch Kids not that good? Patrick worst GB member confirmed.

 

[Tripon]

Good thing that day 2 will release tomorrow instead of waiting on Monday.

 

[hammertomb]

Nope, AC Unity came out.

Nope, i came out.

Pretty clear that the setup is that Danny will be interviewing a different member of the crew post-Gameageddon every day.

 

[m_shortpants]

Literally just started listening and my heart stopped when I realized Brad is hosting...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[~Kinggi~]

Sour Patch Kids not that good? Patrick worst GB member confirmed.

I put a hole in my wall after hearing that shit, bad form.

 

[Isotope]

I'm 4 minutes into this video

im scared, but i love this so far

Edit: Nice job Guilty Gear.

 

[Tan]

Guilty Gear Xrd. Good, I got scared a few times there.

 

[Jintor]

Yeah just got to the end. Mad hype.

Jeff or Dan for final boss?

 

[eot]

That's a bizarre "best looking" category, even by their standards.

 

[Jintor]

Wow, this Swery game looks bonkers fun

Yeah I just saw the runners up. Wtf lol.

 

[~Kinggi~]

Actually in a sea of standard stuff GB always delivers the refreshing quality to things. Nice to see something like Neverending Nightmares in there. Some nice exposure for the game.

 

[bigwinnerx]

Ha was Greg doing his Inca dance? Didn't notice first time.

 

[Tripon]

Real talk: Mario Kart should have been on that best looking list.

 

[Lonestar]

For Maximum Vinny days

I kind of think his clonded versions are acting like placeholders for who were sitting in the spots. Jeff Wave, Brad sleepy, Dan Excited, Patrick alert/surprised by Dan's Excitement.

Thats a nice catch actually and a really nice detail. Definitely that.

I could understand the argument for Neverending Nightmares and Guilty Gear both being in there. Just the combination plus Destiny on top makes it seem ultra weird.

 

[Lonestar]

didn't even notice Crazy Alex Eyes behind Jeff in the middle of the video. ALEX IS IN COLLUSION.

plus, Patrick has Vinny's Shock Balls game stuck on his face.

RIP Patrick

It was a power play by Jeff to give Brad what he wanted in giving Destiny recognition so when it came time for the serious awards Jeff can use it against him.

I don't understand what's impressive about Guilty Gear. It looks like a nice anime game. It goes from 2D to 3D with camera angle changes. Not exactly a new thing in 2014. Maybe I'm just a layman missing the point.

 

[Protome]

It's nuts. It almost perfectly captures the little imperfections of 2D animation. They made it look better by making it look worse in a sense.

Like, I wouldn't be surprised if they faded out the shading on characters here and there to imitate coloring mistakes.

Very good choice for best looking game.

I love that they cut the framerate on the zoomed shots like they had to with big sprites back in the day. Just gorgeous. I'm glad Jason is around, GG Xrd wouldn't have even been brought up in the conversation otherwise.

From my understanding, it's always rendered in 3D.

I think the thing its doing uniquely which hasn't been done is it actually does look like 2d art, and not just Street Fighter cel shading, and it still goes 3d, which I am not sure how they do that beside using a really sophisticated texture shader or creating several angles for the 2d art.

It looks GORGEOUS

It looks good. And since the guys were factoring that in, it runs at 1080p at a constant 60 fps. One of those games where videos often don't quite do it justice.

 

[Isotope]

Xrd looks 2D yet is constantly rendered in 3D, which makes it impressive. In motion/person (1080p/60 FPS to boot), it really is gorgeous to look at.

how can you not see how amazing it looks

 

[Blastoise]

God damn Brad. Getting me so angry with his words.

 

[jett]

Is Patrick on drugs?

"Watching Bayonetta 2's cut-scenes is like watching a film."

 

[Jintor]

It's weird they didn't just use actual stillframe shots for the 'still frame' bits after Dan puts the cart in and hits play. You can see them all struggling to hold position.

it's hilarious

/edit I just noticed that Vinny goes "Should somebody call Alex" just before the camera cuts and Jeff's all "Who?"

Hm? Guilty Gear Xrd runs on Unreal Engine 3.

 

[Links_fantasy]

The best graphics was a bit of a joke, Mario Kart WiiU should have at least been in the top 3. It has an awesome style and technically great. There's a ton of generic sci fi games like Destiny and Halo.

 

[Hobohodo]

Valiant Hearts, Sunset Overdrive, Dangonrompa 2. These are what I need to finish

I feel like Dangonrompa should be safe unless Patrick pushes for some best moment, though I can't see him pushing it with the rest of the crew.

I know Valiant Hearts is in danger so this needs to be finished.

Sunset Overdrive will just ruin some jokes I guess.

 

[LiK]

I love Jeff during these GOTY discussions. BRUTAL hahaha

 

[Dizzy-4U]

Why isn't Rorie in this?

 

[super-famicom]

Why isn't Rorie in this?

Probably looking at puppy pictures.

 

[SummitAve]

Why isn't Rorie in this?

He admittedly doesn't play very many games.

 

[jett]

Jeff shutting down Brad's nonsensical arguments for GTAV.

yeaaaaaaaaaa

 

[LurkerPrime]

I love Jeff's sanity regarding HD remasters and re-releases in general. This is a man that looks at the big picture.

Keep fighting the good fight, Jeff.
