Never heard of it, but that's what I voted for. Saw Star Wars name, hoping for lightsaber battles.
Seems like the poll was designed to have Crazy Taxi win; well known game vs 2 I wasn't familiar with.

Oh that Star Wars game is well known. I voted for crazy taxi because that fighting game is so so bad

Lucas Arts attempting to make a Tekken game with Star Wars and failing hard
I voted for the game they just got as a gift (Streak: Hoverboard Racing), although I don't know anything about it. If that one doesn't win (it probably isn't), I hope Crazy Taxi takes it.
As far as I can see, the Star Wars one is supposed to be a bad game (and I am not that much of a Star Wars fan anyway), while Crazy Taxi is a jolly game where most of them will be familiar with.
I tend to vote for Jolly games for the group streams (or games they got as gifts).
But whatever game will win, it will be fun to watch anyway.

Some really cool and relatively well known EZA fans started a TTE fan podcast. Check it out:

They should do a TTE animation as a stretch goal. It might even be its own kickstarter even. Approach a relatively low-cost and low-budget animation studion to do TTE in the way the Ricky Gervais show was done and it would be incredible. You don't need to cut the audio at all, just make animation corresponding to the actions described. If they made a "TTE Season 1 Animated Series" kickstarter I could see a lot of people spending money on it.

YES!
Sry for caps but I'm hyped for it.
Should hit in about ~24 hours.
Even more hyped about the FT in 2 weeks. Given all the games that have been released until then/have their embargo's lifted.
Did you guys receive an email for this group stream vote? I've recently changed my email settings for only patron stuff but didn't get this.
And I always vote for fighting games, but not Teräs Käsi.
If they wanted a Star Wars fighting game they should play Star Gladiator Episode: I Final Crusade (or its sequel, Plasma Sword).

This is surprisingly good! I like how they capture some of the EZA podcast vibes: segments, bets, some bold statements, very cool.
And wow are they ruthless:
"Fuck the baby." , "I hope Moof dies."

I get what they're trying to do, but the way the Gravity Rush 2 thread title is worded, it just makes me want to go in there and post "NOPE!" Like, get a grip. I get you're excited and want others to get excited, too, but be more inviting.I love the recent threads that just silently scream

The name Teräs Käsi always gave me a big chuckle, since those are finnish words for steel hand.

Yeah I was pleasantly surprised. Can't wait for them to go on iTunes or to add video options.
That was surprisingly good. Will listen to episode two as well.

Pretty good listen. I would have liked a bit more discussion in how clever/Amusing Kyle was with the red dragon. They glossed over that way too quickly.
Also I would have liked some more credit to Hubers angle to how Pomper is handling the fallout of the Moof situation. For a sheltered and naive character it's a path I didn't expect but I think works well. Huber will do wild things a lot but I think he really does play Pomper differently than Law or Hogger.

..RIP Scalebound.
I'm very sad about Scalebound, but I'm kind of sadder about the state of MS right now, it all seems terrible on MS' side.
BTW, as I was on a trip this past 2 weeks, I just heard the podcast, I loved it to death, specially when they got so personal discussing about trivial things like the pop tart and the toaster strudel..

Are they doing Switch bets ?
brotkasten

No. They wanted to do them, but that question got asked so many times that they canceled the betting special. "If people don't care to read, they obviously don't care to watch it either" or something.

I doubt they will be doing much Switch talk because it will be recorded before the conference but released after it. Kyle has refused to talk about prediction stuff in the past for this very reason
Though I do wish they would just go all in on the Switch for us patreons considering we get the episode a night before the Switch conference... I JUST CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SWITCH segment should be the entire episode

After the two showings the scalebound news isn't that shocking or sad for me. It didn't look like it'd be a game that would deliver

Their live Switch stream will have a one hour pre-show and another one hour post-show. It's basically an "I just can't wait for the switch" segment.
I just hope Jones sing the jingle in the beginning lol

I agree. Would've loved to see it work out but it just never looked good to me
The project always seemed like "you hired Platinum to make the kind of game Platinum doesn't make" and I guess that's kind of how it was shaping up
TheDarkKnight774

Reading the chatter and speculation this wasn't what scalebound was supposed to be and MS forcing the 4 player co-op direction and it falling apart and then canceled doesn't surprise me either.
Even though scalebound was never going to be this super mega hit I do think it's cancellation has almost more impact than if it was released. Like this feels like a huge signal of where MS is going with their studios and I'm not liking it.

I hesitate to really buy into any "insider scoops" when this literally just broke but I fully believe MS wanted changes and it just wasn't happening. When the game first had it's big delay I imagine that was the point that they were like "ok, we're giving you this time to fix it" and they weren't able to deliver
I don't mean that as a slight against Platinum either, like they weren't good enough. But as I said this was a big budget open-world RPG with a photorealistic artstyle by the studio who makes linear anime games on a relatively low budget. They obviously pitched the project to MS but yeah, I imagine it just didn't work out
TheDarkKnight774

Yes I'm saying it's 100% true from the insiders but if you take a bigger picture of their output I can believe this chatter of MS wanting to go to "service games" and they meddled in scalebound which *could* have had negative impacts. The only optimism for the game was "but kamiya" but what was shown felt so little likens kamiya game to me (except the protagonist)

I think after the first demo they said something like "yeah we aren't focusing on combos/combat depth for this game" and it was like why are you making this
Fully support the team going after their passions, obviously its a game they weren't going to be able to make themselves, but man. What a departure on all fronts, regardless of development troubles
I finally caught up...
2nd Ally to beat it I think? Heart was pounding so hard when I was just under the score, as last week I missed beating it by like 1000 points because of greed. Ended up crushing it this time though, felt good man. Kyle can do it for sure he just needs some luck and to mash better.
