Brad's karaoke game is so on point it makes me angry

I'm still behind, has Transistor come up at all? It seems like after the initial excitement the GB crew forgot all about that game.
Came up for like five seconds on best looking game. I have a feeling that lack of any Transistor talk may be due to the same reasons they didn't review it, but who knows.
They know by now when Brad sings to be quiet or else.
Came up in the "best exclusive console exclusive console" category too. I think it was like the only thing that kept the PS4 on the list for them.

Nah. They aren't talking about it because the game wasn't that great and none of them actually enjoyed it all that much at all.
I'm sure for someone Farming Simulator is better than Tetris and Ocarina of Time and Super Mario World and Goonies 2, so what's the big deal? If Spelunky is Patrick's GOAT then it's his GOAT. End of story.
The fact that you even mentioned Goonies with those other titles should tell you all you need to know about the subjectivity of personal taste.

My god, Brad.
They've mentioned it. They seemed to really like the music and the gameplay, but not the story. So they've brought it up a few times only to dismiss it quickly.
edit: This is a perfect Swery list

SWERY's list is incredible.

I wonder how much off camera work Dan had to do in preparation for his part. That was pretty awesome.
Jason's bit was amazing!

Reading the various guest lists, this Xavier Woods guy sounds like an awesome dude.

SWERY65's list. Basically the best possible list. What a guy.

It truly is.
He's a pretty good wrestler too.

This is unrelated, but the concrete ability reminds me of a famous Japanese commercial for stiff shoulder medicine. - Swery
Someone from Hoodslam, it seems.

He's one of the main wrestlers in Hoodslam, which is a monthly (amateur?) "professional" wrestling event in Oakland CA.
I mean, on his list there are 107 games before D4, so give the guy a slack.
I love that his Hoodslam shirt was just a bootleg Nintendo logo.
The more I hear about Hoodslam the more I need to know.
Love how the Hoodslam t-shirt was a riff on the Nintendo logo and the wall banner was a Metallica font.

Japanese modesty dictates that you're not supposed to like your own work. Not even a little bit. It's a street cred thing.
It all went completely over my head.
The only two high-profile narrative games I played this year were Alien & South Park, so I had no idea who they were even talking about the whole time.
Judging from the crew lists so far, the front runners are definitely Mordor and Bayo 2. Although Far Cry 4 seems like it will be decently high as well seeing as both Jeff and Dan have it as their number 2.
I think Brad will be a Mordor advocate as well, and Alex is definitely gonna get behind Bayonetta. Vinny I'm not sure about, he could fall either way, and Jason seems like a Bayo guy too. Drew, like Vinny, I'm not sure on, but perhaps will go with Mordor (Not sure if he even has a Wii U). It'll definitely be one of the closest top 2 discussions in a while. Not sure it will last as long as that Skyrim/Saint's Row debate, but should be super interesting.

The GOTY videos have been incredible this year. Such a step up from 2013!

If this is true, 2015 will be the most depressing year for games since 1982.
