I give it a month before Jeff streaming random games from his bedroom is premium members only.

 

[Darklord]

jeff is streaming: http://www.twitch.tv/gbjg

It's like watching Jeff's Shroom trip.

I love how within 10 minutes he's playing TrackMania

Does anyone remember the video in which they had an intern play the end boss of Actraiser? I can't find it.

Wasn't that when they streamed all those SNES games after getting that specific equipment? I'm not sure where it is though. D:

Around the 2:10:00 mark.

 

[DaBuddaDa]

Thanks. Brad's comment at 2:21:30 is what I was looking for. That is one of the funniest moments in GB history.

 

[Salsa]

what happened to the interns btw?

 

[Felix Lighter]

what happened to the interns btw?

Let go before the transition.

 

[ratzombie]

It's mostly from what the Executive Producer said from two recent interviews, rather than the game's content alone. In the Bombcast, the entire discussion revolved around what people said or how they reacted (Rubin, TR PR, GoW/TLoU crowd), and the GB crew just gave their views on that.

So, it's all kinds of stupid to go "herp derp so you guyz no like action movies, Dr. Dre, & Mortal Kombat no more? lololol".

I think it's also all kinds of stupid to completely dismiss a game based on what one person said about the game. Like Brad said, he isn't willing to completely trash Tomb Raider after this one thing.

Is it just me, or does it feel like the Giant Bomb crew have been having terrible kneejerk reactions to stuff lately? I'll chalk it up to them still winding down from E3.

I know Ryan mentioned that after the whole Jason Ruben twitter thing. E3 week takes a lot out of people, I'm sure doubly so when they had so many late-night video casts.

The ones that were there at the time, yeah. But Ben, the one playing ActRaiser, was already out and back to school when everything went down. He was planning on going back when school was done, but that's apparently not happening anymore.

I used to do a podcast with Ben, BTW, so that's why I know this.

this man knows what he's talking about.

@VinnyCaravella So, Binary Domain...actually kind of awesome. Was as long it needed to be, pacing was handled well, and some decent character work.

 

[Data West]

https://twitter.com/VinnyCaravella/status/214231417029279747

Of course he does. We all know Vinny is the only one with taste. and sometimes Brad and Patrick.

I can't wait to not hear about Binary Domain next week when Vinny's not on the podcast.

The demo was utter dog shite and the Quick Look didn't look any better.

The only amusing thing from either was the appearance of Big Bo.

Fantastic. The Good Word must be spread.

Can we go through some classes on games that are actually terrible so people on GAF can stop acting like everything they don't like is Cheetahmen?

 

[darkressurection]

We should just compare every game to Action 52. "This game wasn't good, but it definitely wasn't Action 52"

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Can we go through some classes on games that are actually terrible so people on GAF can stop acting like everything they don't like is Cheetahmen?

Also a mandatory course explaining that there can, in fact, be a difference between, "This game really shines after a short uneven or slow period at the start," and, "So you say this game is utterly unplayable dogshit for 50 hours before it starts to 'get good'!??!?"

You guys should try Army of Two. I'm sure it'd be right up your alley.

 

[darkressurection]

I've have played it and I would put it firmly in the "This game isn't good but it definitely isn't Action 52" category.

 

[Data West]

Any game that's not above 90 on metacritic should be dropped in a landfill and buried so that no one may ever be saddled with such a curse.

 

[strafer]

Am I the only one who thinks Ryan Davis is the gamer version of Robbie Coltrane?

 

[obonicus]

Does Robbie Coltrane have a deep love for things that are ironically bad?

 

[IamMattFox]

Jeff's doing some streaming.

THIS MUSIC IS SICK

 

[Lijik]

THIS MUSIC IS SICK

Fuck I just came in here to post this :lol

 

[Technosteve]

amiga game?

 

[Lijik]

amiga game?

Commodore 64, but I think it had an Amiga port

 

[Felix Lighter]

Ninja stars are OP

 

[ZenaxPure]

THIS MUSIC IS SICK

Holy crap it really is.

Specifically what I heard anyway when this thought came to my head, for those that miss it. About 2:10 onwards - damnnnnnnn.

 

[Salsa]

Let go before the transition.

I figured, but I was mostly wondering if anyone knew what they're doing now. Cool bunch and they certainly got some good exposure to venture into new things.

 

[shawnlreed]

Ninja Jeff vs Dragon

So Good

 

[Jintor]

Seriously amazing music.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Jeff vs sinking.

Amazing.

 

[Jintor]

Man, Jeff is a really funny guy.

 

[Data West]

this is the most interesting GB content in months.

 

[Felix Lighter]

In your fucking face dragon!

 

[SmithnCo]

Yeah, this music is amazing.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Oh wow this music is pretty fucking sick.

 

[KorrZ]

Ninja side 2

 

[megalowho]

fuck me that SID chip is so good.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I'm surprised that the C64 can be this sophisticated.

 

[SmithnCo]

He needs to walk backwards more often. Moonwalkin' ninja.

 

[Data West]

I'm surprised that the C64 can be this sophisticated.

Wait until you see an Amiga

 

[SteveWinwood]

Wait until you see an Amiga

Are you saying videogames got more complicated than this?!?!

 

[Technosteve]

the fuck is this game he doesn't even fight people

 

[Antiwhippy]

the fuck is this game he doesn't even fight people

It's a sinking simulator.

 

[Data West]

the fuck is this game he doesn't even fight people

This is the game that Gaf wants. They don't want the ultraviolence and action thrill rides, so they get a lot of jumping on logs in mud.

 

[Technosteve]

Jeff play castles II instead man
