What's there to call out?
In what way?
its a poorly constructed sentence

I kind of wish they would do a single podcast where they all speak monotone. Sexy Cast.
Oh, I was expecting there to be some kind of logical inconsistency or reveal of how he actually only played two hours of it or something scandalous.

Oh sorry, I should have specified. I figured it was obvious from the use of five commas in one sentence.
I thought at first maybe it was intentional, like he wanted us to feel that reading that sentence was similar to playing the game or something.

Does anyone happen to know what keyboard Jeff is using on his computer in the I Love Mondays (April 29) video? It looks like a potentially awesome keyboard but my internet sleuthing has failed me.

Yeah, I was being a bit facetious with the 'calling out' bit.

Really liked this I <3 Monday's, was like an impromptu tour of the updated studio
From the latest I Love Mondays: "Soul Sacrifice is like the only thing out retail this week."
So, I guess we probably can't expect any coverage on the Deadly Premonition Director's Cut, huh?
I'm fairly certain the audience loved DP wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy more than the GB crew did. I have a feeling it's a game that Jeff would rather not ever deal with again.
I think the only one that outright hated it was Brad, judging from that one GOTY podcast... Jeff liked the narrative parts to a point. That's why I wrote that quote on the back of that card box.

Jeff isn't going to look half bad when he finally accepts his baldness. It doesn't look good on some people, but he could pull it off pretty well I think.

hahahahahah omg @ vinny's "welcome to my stream" that was hilarious

They may have liked the story (and they definitely liked Francis York Morgan), but it's the gameplay. I think they really hated the gameplay.
Hasn't that been updated though?
No. From what I've seen and read, it's not enough to justify paying 20 dollars again. Much less for twice the price. Hell, it's worse than the originals in some way. I'm surprised Swery would sign off on it but whatever.
Watching that Trailer with the new suits and Emily (that's her name right?) wearing that Bunny outfit...
what the fuck indeed.
Am I misremembering or something, because I remember the Brad and Ryan Endurance Run ending with them more positive about it than Vinny and Jeff.I think the only one that outright hated it was Brad, judging from that one GOTY podcast...

That is one hell of a run-on sentence. I remember when Brad was trying to write a review on one of the Friday shows and he said he was unhappy with one of his sentences because it was too long. Then the review hit and it remained pretty much unchanged.
More periods, Brad!

He woke up and realized he had nothing to wear.
Sort of. They removed the tank controls, and made the combat way easier. Not better, though. The framerate seems to be a lot worse than the original 360 version, as well as retaining a bunch of performance issues from the original PS3 version.
But when has a game being bad prevented them from doing a Quick Look?

No Patrick?
No Ryan?
Could be the best bombcast in years.

Special guest will be Dave Lang, on Skype, to talk about Dive Kick and, for some odd reason, Cards Against Humanity!
That was so weird. He had the black shirt on underneath though, like a superhero!

I don't think it is this one because the logo on your link is at the bottom on the wrist rest with nothing at the top, but his keyboard has a small logo on the top center of the keyboard and no wrist rest. It does look like it could be a Logitech logo though...
This looks like it might be it... although on his the Windows key logo is slightly different than the one in the linked picture, but that looks a lot closer. I can't believe he'd have a solar powered keyboard though...
Edit: Okay you were exactly right. In case for some unknown reason someone else cares, he says it is the Logitech Solar Powered keyboard in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uL6XgDJV88.
Mission accomplished. Now to find out if it's any good as an actual keyboard
.Vinny/Jeff actively sounded like they wanted to die by the end of the ER, so it's not hard to top that.

Yeah, they traded places hard on that.

Or just change a comma to a semicolon.

I say bring on the long sentences! If people in the 17th century could handle them, so can we!

I have one. No complaints. Nice if you have a new Logitech mouse too since they use the same mini receiver.

I have one. I love the feel of the keys, but the keyboards themselves seem to be prone to failure. It also has some issues when it works. You need a lot of light, so it should be next to a window or near a lamp unless you want to leave a light on all the time.
This might not be normal either, but mine drops into sleep mode after a minute or so of not typing, and you have to physically turn the keyboard off and then on again to wake it (typing doesn't).
I'd get another keyboard, but this one's keys have exactly the right amount of springiness to them that I want, so it's hard to switch.
The Twitch Downloader extension for Chrome was pretty good, while it worked right, as it allowed you to individually download each 30 minutes chunk of past broadcasts from a channel's video listing.
However, after a couple Twitch.tv updates, it broke the Twitch Chat and the links it generates are no longer clickable (you can generate a buncha links and click them when they leave from behind Twitch's webpage div, but that's a less than ideal situation).
Anybody knows of another one that works as intended? Maybe one not in the Chrome Extension Store?
I really wish they would update it/a new one would come up.

So did Vinny just set up a second Quick Look/stream room? Not entirely sure if that was all he was up to in the latest ILM.
Looked like he was just testing some new hardware and found a little empty space to do it in.
