I haven't watched it, but judging from what they said on the Bombcast they play some of the singleplayer. There's some (what they say are minor) spoilers but they give a warning before that part.
No, but it's all boring.

Quick Look: Vessel (Brad/Vinny) (40:27)
Looks like fun but not a fan of the art style.

Weren't two QLs scheduled for today? The one after vessel (scheduled for 8 cst) was scheduled for ten or something but I forget what it was.

I want a brad/vinny QL for journey
Brad because he liked flower. Vinny because he HATES flower
At least I want no Patrick. Seems like a game he would babble on forever about and I don't want that. I don't think anyone wants that

Is that the game or your picture, I can't tell? Gorgeous regardless.Heh, I was actually at that same location where they were playing MS Flight.

A puzzle game with a somewhat unique gimmick to it? Welcome to me buying it 5 minutes after the QL and ignoring several AAA console games I have to play.
I'm weird like that.
GB should limit all QL of puzzle/logic games to Ryan and/or Vinny. Brad has always been terrible at them, watching him play Vessel was pretty painful and I can only imagine the video being half as long if Vinny wasn't in the room with him. Stick to your strong points (interviews and shooters) Brad

Serious? I love when they mix it up, it would get boring otherwise.
And Brad is a fan of (good) Platformers, no?
When the purpose of the QL is to showcase the game, yes, they should pick people (at least one that's doing the playing) who are competent in the genre. Why else would GB usually have Drew or Jeff cover most of the racing stuff; and Dave for the more niche PC games? Because they can make insightful comments while showing off the different aspects of the game. Brad can play whatever he'd like on his own time
Maybe, as long as the person that's doing the driving knows what he's doing, I don't really care who goes along for the ride
Probably, doesn't mean he's good at it though!
and of those you'll probably get SF x Tekken if you're lucky
we'll probably see a Yakuza: Dead Souls QL before a Binary Domain one at this rate

I'm sorry.
No I'm not.

I love charts as much as I love seeing Brad dying over and over in quicklooks.
Also, death by birds and jellyfish sound like a hilarious way to perish.

The two guys that keep track of that stuff are weirdos. Cool stats, though.

I need to know Patrick's completely unimportant stats too 
It's worth pointing out that Brad became infamous for the hilarity of his deaths as much as the frequency of them.

Percentage of Deaths per Quick Look is the stat to watch. 56% for Dave is a bit of a shock but he puts his record on the line with some tough games.
he rarely drives

Patrick will take the top spot for most appearances by the end of the year.

That's just Brad, he doesn't seem to care much about spoilers. Not sure why he doesn't get that most people do though.
Yeah, in this case I think Brad was asking stuff because it's things HE wanted to know, and wasn't just asking questions for the sake of the viewers.
cuevas. PhD.

So what GB is all about.
No, I think a lot of the time they ask questions in the QLs about stuff they already know about or things that they know are important for the sake of the viewers. In this particular case, Brad was asking about stuff he didn't know about and actually wanted to know.

Jeff's ragging on the ending has killed my motivation to play ME3. Haven't played it since release night.
I am literally up to the final mission, and it's terrific thus far. Far better than ME2.
We'll see how much the ending ruins that, though.

Idk, that makes it worse. Why play a great 30 hour game if only to know in the back of my mind the ending ruins the entire experience.
Alright, the water was what put me in doubt that it was the game haha.

"Now see if you can fly under the bridge" - Vinny.
Seriously the guy is just destructive in every quicklook.

Basically. Not just to himself either. I wonder what percentage of the deaths when he's viewing come from him urging the driver to do something dumb.
Of course, that spirit of chaos is what makes Vinny the best
