it's a fighting game discussion

Reminds me that we'll never get a new one. T_T

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Notice - no Smash Bros talk.

We can talk about one Smash Brother

 

[broncobuster]

Reminder: Yakuza 6 includes Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown

 

[SmackAttack]

wow, so 1UP died and GB started the same year.

One must fall so one can rise.

:_;7

 

[Death Metalist]

Our 10th year is next year

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Ed Boon just lost that record to Goku

 

[BTA]

I'm missing most of this but what I've caught has been pretty good; I'm looking forward to catching it later. I have no interest in MK but general fighting game history talk is pretty great.

 

[daveo42]

Ed Boon's Hot Code Scoops.

 

[DanLongman]

For some some reason Jeff looks so much smaller in shorts. Nice legs also.

Don't be creepy. 🤗

 

[Iksenpets]

wow, so 1UP died and GB started the same year.

Yep, I was a big 1up fan and I remember specifically feeling like GB rose up at the exact moment to replace it for me.

 

[disappeared]

yeah, it was nuts

 

[BearPawB]

Yep, I was a big 1up fan and I remember specifically feeling like GB rose up at the exact moment to replace it for me.

Yeah, 1up was the most personality driven site at the time, so having that go away, made the GB have some great timing

 

[petethepanda]

I hope Jeff asks a bit more about Undertale, I'm fascinated by the process of localizing something like that for Japan

 

[Antiwhippy]

Yeah, 1up was the most personality driven site at the time, so having that go away, made the GB have some great timing

Almost too perfect....

 

[- J - D -]

yeah i remember when the gb guys were on one of the final 1up yours episodes.

 

[mreddie]

Injustice Switch?

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Jeff and Boon is always cool. It's another thing that makes me want more long form interviews at GB.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Ed Boon drinks Bud Light?

 

[Gorillaz]

Jeff is out here getting games for nintendo for free

that angel

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Boon is a good dude.

 

[Zoggy]

yo wtf sauce

 

[ThreePiMatt]

Jeff and Boon is always cool. It's another thing that makes me want more long form interviews at GB.

I always thought they should do like a "retrospective" with him like they did with Lang and the long lost Brad Muir.

 

[Aselith]

X1X is best abbreviation.

 

[Iksenpets]

I hope Jeff asks a bit more about Undertale, I'm fascinated by the process of localizing something like that for Japan

He's like the one person on staff who wasn't really a fan of Undertale, right? Kind of unfortunate for this interview when that's the big thing John has to promote.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

I can't hide it anymore


I want Ed Boon to murder me

 

[E92 M3]

wow, so 1UP died and GB started the same year. I didn't realize

Yes, it made my life a little easier. 1UP was something else and GB equally so.

 

[disappeared]

Ed Boon drinks Bud Light?

he doesn't even curse.

 

[SmackAttack]

MK or Injustice Switch? Jeff working for the big N.

And again, I must say I'm excited to play OG Xbox games on my Xbone.

 

[OdysseusVA]

X1X is best abbreviation.

Awful

Its still an Xbone but with another X.

Xbone X

 

[Death Metalist]

yo wtf sauce

You're doing it wrong it's

I CAN'T DENY IT.

WTF SAUCE

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

That Iron Man game. lol.

 

[Archaix]

Awful

Its still an Xbone but with another X.

Xbone X

Xboxox. Plural Xboxoxen.

 

[Aselith]

That Iron Man game. lol.

That's what I thought too

 

[robotrock]

man this segment is good

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Boon saying "Yeah, we were dumb for not including open all boxes and sell junk" Is just amazing. They're able to make the most amazing character models/facial animations that we've ever seen and they still manage to overlook such an obvious simple feature. I'd really like to know where their priories lye as the makers of the best selling fighting games.

 

[- J - D -]

Who the hell abbreviates "Xbox" to "Xb". Xbox One X should shorten down to "XOX", not "XBOX". I hate that Xbone caught on the way it did.

 

[FHIZ]

Interesting to see Boon talk about developing for the half-step consoles. You had Phil Spencer basically going "it takes a day to get games for the X running" like it's nothing.

 

[mreddie]

Pro and soon X I fear will confuse the market.

 

[Aselith]

XBONE came out of XBox ONE so nearly everyone

 

[giant_frying_pan]

he doesn't even curse.

"Please, come over here"

 

[LowRoller]

Jeff is just such a fucking fantastic interviewer.

 

[The Dear Leader]

Who the hell abbreviates "Xbox" to "Xb". Xbox One X should shorten down to "XOX", not "XBOX". I hate that Xbone caught on the way it did.

The X in Xbox is the same as the X at the end so it should be X B(ox) O(ne) X, XBOX. Just like PlayStation 4, it's not abbreviated P4, it's P(lay) S(tation) 4.

 

[- J - D -]

XBONE came out of XBox ONE so...

I know, that's what I'm saying! It was dumb to begin with and it only caught on because "xbone" makes Microsoft look dumb.

 

[Aselith]

I know, that's what I'm saying! It was dumb to begin with and it only caught on because "bone" makes Microsoft look dumb.

It's canon too though because of XBLA

 

[FHIZ]

Undertale has no Pro enhancements. 50+ page thread incoming!

 

[HotHamWater]

If Lorne Lanning was here, he tell a tale of Xbox One X somehow causing the next world war.

I don't know, Xbone is cute and reminds me of that goofy COD German Shepherd gif. Though, yes, at this point the people who are really insistent on using it are probably fanboys.

 

[Gorillaz]

Pro and soon X I fear will confuse the market.

The entire xbox 1 naming family is confusion in itself. Still hate the naming and branding of this gen of xbox.

I accept your logic but I still don't like it!

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Jeff doesn't want to stop talking to Ed.

EVER.

[EDIT -

If Lorne Lanning was here, he tell a tale of Xbox One X somehow causing the next world war.
