I hesitate to use the g-word when describing something that's like 60% cutscenes

but MGS4 is a hell of a thing

G word?

Grandiose?
Grand?

Great?
Gerfunkel?
Good?
Geriatric?

Twitch cops are notoriously dumb, and usually don't know much about games, but that's still really funny.

lol. I used to rent that game a bunch way back when. I remember kind of liking it, honestly

Jeff never answered the question so I'm gonna answer it for him:

Pokemon Pinball is the best pinball video game.

I'll have to check it out myself. Not gonna live up to Pokemon Pinball though

Kirby's Pinball and that Metroid one were both pretty good too tbh

This is very true.

Brad has done what I can never manage to do and let his hair grow past the stage where it looks bad and starts to look cool.

Beat Father Gascoigne first try, no music box.

Don't see what the big deal is you just dodge and then hit him

Place your bets for the MGS3 ending, folks!

Option 1: Dan stays silent, Drew tears up
Option 2: Dan tears up, Drew silently appreciates it
Option 3: Both tear up
Option 4: Drew is disappointed at the lack of Kojima insanity, Dan laughs and makes fun of how sappy it is.
Option 5: They both silently appreciate the somber moment
Option 6: They both laugh it off

I'm torn between 1 and 5.

Spoiler

I preemptively have something in my throat.

Option 8: Drew looks moved but doesn't tear up. Dan bawls.

Drew will roll his eyes when he learns about who Eva really is and who Ocelot really works for.

Triple crosses for everybody!

I'm going for Option 5 with a sprinkle of tearing up

Spoiler

at least for me

Drew will roll his eyes when he learns about who Eva really is and who Ocelot really works for.

Triple crosses for everybody!

The post credits scene will be laughed at but it will be all just to cover the tears!

 

[rObit]

Yeah the Old Games Show is cool, I hope they continue to do it fairly often.

So it's really odd to me that they block you from watching the Youtube upload of a video on their site unless you are a premium member. Is that just because they want to make you watch their ad rather than Youtube's? 'Cause that's not what's happening, I'm just going to their Youtube channel instead.

 

[SmithnCo]

Drew will probably appreciate the relative lack of insanity. Then he'll have to play MGS4.

 

[MadLaughter]

China Track Walk video is pretty fun, especially the race at the end. Good supplement to the China primer. Yayyyyyyyyyy Danny content.

Dan cries heavily while Drew makes farty noises with his mouth over the entirety of the ending. the "you beat the game" trophy pops and Jason says "thanks" repeatedly until the video ends

Drew double-crosses Dan but Jason double-crosses Drew. Jeff is revealed to have been the true mastermind behind MGScanlon the entire time, but Jeff is then further revealed to be an AI computer developed by Brad to impersonate the real Jeff, who is actually Dan-X, Dan's evil brother-boss. Brad's role is unknown but he calls the President after the end credits roll.

The President is Patrick Klepek.

I was gonna be all snarky and talk about how easy peasy Vicar Amelia is but this was my first try and I almost kicked my desk.

 

[SuperStiltzkin]

"Troops in Gathering" is such a great track used only in that one cutscene. But it is a great cutscene. Nothing fancy, just soldiers scoping out the area.

It was prominently featured as the main song for the first gameplay trailer of MGS3, before the ones with the story bits. The trailer I'm talking about had the GTA joke.

"What is this, a Grand Theft Auto?"
"No, it's a sneaking mission."
"This is no Vice City, go chew on some snakes!"

Also, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE YOUR SNAKE

And the stinger with the croc cap. XD

So has anybody written any lyrics for "Snake Duder" besides

I give my life
Not for honor, but for Drew

What a thrill
watching Scanlon and Ryckert through the night
What a thrill
the comments are so mad at Drew
What a fear in my heart
that he's gonna scream

I stay online
not for honor, but for Drew
in my time
there's been no-one else
DAN, PLEASE STOP TELLING HIM WHAT TOOOOO DOO
I'M STILL IN A DREAM
SNAKE DUDER

[hamchan]

Oh........Dan just tells Drew straight out that Ocelot is the Boss' son immediately after she reveals she had a kid and while she's still doing her monologue. Could have waited a bit longer on that one really.

Some days you 'nade through the game
Some days you breeze through a boss fight
It's that trial, the will to survive
Until the day
you see the light

I stay online

DAN, PLEASE STOP TELLING HIM WHAT TOOOOO DOO

So two things from the podcast this week.

1. I'm really happy Jeff had the same crippling Skylanders addiction that I did, and I hope to god that he doesn't fall into the Amiibo trap because it's more of the same, just vastly more expensive because of the limited prints. Worthy every penny.

2. On the subject of a Saint's Row movie, it would be rather amusing if The Boss changed actors periodically through the movie. Male and female too. Most of the dialogue is malleable in the game, so I can see it working.

Drew double-crosses Dan but Jason double-crosses Drew. Jeff is revealed to have been the true mastermind behind MGScanlon the entire time, but Jeff is then further revealed to be an AI computer developed by Brad to impersonate the real Jeff, who is actually Dan-X, Dan's evil brother-boss. Brad's role is unknown but he calls the President after the end credits roll.

The President is Patrick Klepek.

is this wrestling?

 

[The Dear Leader]

Dan is so uncomfortable with the Oyama face paint, what a weirdo.

2. On the subject of a Saint's Row movie, it would be rather amusing if The Boss changed actors periodically through the movie. Male and female too. Most of the dialogue is malleable in the game, so I can see it working.

At one point The Boss is voiced by Nolan North despite being played by a different actor dressed up to vaguely resemble Hulk Hogan
