What was wrong with it?

What? It's a cool throwback game that really evokes that late 90s era of PC gaming. Really neat premise.
Though silent protagonist is a total Zelda ripoff.

I finally watched that Black Mesa quick look. Then I skimmed through the comments on that video. A lot of them were angry.
I don't know if you guys remember that story Dan told a while back on a 2011 or 2012 Bombcast (where he was a guest) about pranking a bunch of dating site meatheads with a fake account he called "Heather Patton."
What I'm saying is all these folks the Black Mesa QL has angered are like guys in blue shirts standing on a bridge.

Alex is really articulate and insightful when he's relaxed - he nailed it with the reality of game criticism not yet being considered a real vocation as the root of so many issues (and the question itself). Glad he's now got a weekly audio only outlet to shine again - video has always held him back a bit.

No jokes about Mr. Freeman please. He studied at my university therefore I have to defend his honor if necessary.

Watching the Circles segment of UPF. Its so satisfying that Brad finally got taken down by someone named Breaking Brad.

I just learned from HDTGM that he also played Lo-Mai (cat person) in The Island of Dr. Moreau. What an actor!
Oh shit he was in The Brotherhood of the Wolf too. Loved that movie.

Yeah Alex is a really articulate guy, and a really funny one too, I think.
When he mentioned on Bombing in the AM last year he almost got to interview the dev who made Big Rigs, and that it would have been the video game industries equivalent of the Frost Nixon interview, I laughed harder than I had in a while.

I really enjoy Alex's humor. He writes the best articles on GB. Love it.
Hope he is actually doing alright though, he always sounds like the most depressed guy in the universe on QLs
Also: Invisible Inc. is a really good game.
Didn't really care for Don't Starve but this game is fantastic.

This dot game looks great and INCREDIBLY hilarious with "Thanks Obama" and Breaking Brad breaking Brad.
edit: and now Mario Party. It's like Brad's kryptonite has gone the extra mile here.

I'm surprised I haven't run into Drew in my town yet, that's like the third time he has mentioned my local Big R store.

Regency Solitaire looks legit fun, what a great QL. I always love the ones where the game seems like it's going to be boring and ends up being really entertaining.

Also Patrick playing Snakebird... What.

Solitair and Jane Austen.
It's like my two biggest enemies decided to collaborate.

Jane Austen sucks
Watching Patrick and Ryan play Portal 2 Co-op is one of the most frustrating GB videos I have ever watched probably second only to Brad playing SOTC.
I think I will buy this. Looks super cool.
yeah, it's just something inherent to puzzles. When the person you're watching figures the puzzle out before you, your natural reaction is, "oh, I get it." But when you figure it out before them, the natural reaction is, "Oh come on, just do the super obvious thing!"

I took a women's lit class in college and it was a depressing amount of Austen
