Ok, I have to say one thing regarding the earlier stuff: I hope you know Danny has been a target himself, because he was one of the early big supporters of Depression Quest and he made this fantastic video called "Video Games vs. Depression"

That's it, I got it out of me, thank you.

Awkward.

So how far did Brad get today? Not far at all?

 

[danm999]

I wonder how many hours of Jeff Gerstmann content are on the internet.

Gotta be in the thousands by now right?

 

[Glitchesarecool]

No progress.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

No progress.

I think he went backward, really.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Man, and people thought Drew was bad at MGS.

Dont go down that rabbit hole because the next question is How many hours of Jeff Grestmann content have I consumed?

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

It's a question that keeps me up most nights.

It's the most depressed I'll be since I typed /played on my WoW main.

Seriously I could have learnt an instrument or something.

 

[StopMakingSense]

How many hours of Jeff Grestmann content have I consumed?

... christ.

The completionist in me would die.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

I think he had 475 vials left at the end of that run? So 125 vials used for nothing!

 

[BanGy.nz]

I just worked out how much Giant Bomb content I've consumed this week, this is the sort of information that my bosses can never know.

 

[Infinite Justice]

I assume this includes Gamespot as well right :/

 

[Brashnir]

easily.

I mean, the P4 Endurance Run was 100 by itself.

 

[Teddified]

Can't wait for the Beastcast tomorrow, hopefully it'll be up as soon as I wake up.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

The answer is not enough.

 

[danm999]

easily.

Umm, excuse me I believe it was 99 hours, 59 minutes. Get your facts straight.



Though I'm guessing with the episode where they lost all their progress from Hama you're right, the ER by itself is 100+.

99:59 was the their final save time. The total run time of the ER videos must be well in excess of that.

Between menus and that episode where they wiped, you'd be right I imagine.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Wasn't there a time they left the game running for 24 hours as well since they were mid dungeon or something?

 

[mnz]

QLCrew has 1094 Quick Looks including Jeff. That's like 600 hours right there.

 

[Dany]

Wasn't there a time they left the game running for 24 hours as well since they were mid dungeon or something?

That was a joke.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

That was a joke.

But I mean, they were in the middle of a dungeon. They can't joke like that.

 

[Jintor]

gb can be a mite depressing because I'm like "Man I could totally watch one of these 50 classic movies I've never seen even though their effects reverberate through popular media today and I should probably watch this"

but then GB posts a mailbag that's like one and a half hours long and I'm like "OOOH MAILBAG"

but I guess I usually have them on a second screen while I'm doing something else, so the numbers are probably a mite skewed.

And then you watch it three times and feel even worse

 

[Dany]

They stopped recording one episode and started recording the next.

Quit pulling back the curtain! Next you're going to tell me Dr Tracksuit isn't a real guy.

 

[Data West]

I hope Vinny plays that Flame Over game on Steam.

 

[daydream]

I hope Vinny plays that Flame Over game on Steam.

jeff and bard already ql'ed the vita version

i was going to mention earlier that the game is on steam now but forgot. people who're interested and don't have a vita should give it a shot

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Why are you lying! They have to keep to their schedule! They did this live too! stop the lieeeesss

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Pretty sure they recorded those ERs on a daily basis. So those days they were stuck in a dungeon, they just suspended the ps2 till they could get back to it.

 

[ShaggsMagoo]

Kudos to the Giant Bomb Unarchived guy for starting to get the periscope stuff on Youtube. Maybe Danny's stuff can get added as well? Oh and please turn off the comments on the video's. It is one of the worst things about Periscope.

 

[Dany]

What no. That would logistically make no sense. I think they recorded a block of them all in one day and spread them out. It's easier to pause a recording, transcode an episode and upload it while recording a new one. At least I think.

 

[stump sock]

I've watched like 10+ hours of AKB48 variety shows this week alone so I'm pretty sure I've got you people who are feeling sorry about themselves beat

It's even easier to pause the game and just come back the next day!

You win.

 

[Infinite Justice]

Can someone light the Vinny signal so we can put this to bed lol

 

[Incandenza]

They definitely recorded several at once, but usually not more than two or three so they could respond to comments.

You can tell an episode was recorded immediately after the last one when they didn't hit a save point at the end of the last and they don't spend the first couple minutes trying to remember what they were doing.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

You sure they didn't just suspend and resume the ps2? You sound confident, you're swaying my opinion on the matter

 

[Liquid Shake]

Loved that suspend & resume feature on the PS2!

 

[danm999]

Guys clearly they didn't turn it off or leave, but they sat there and waited patiently the 23 hours until Drew was ready to begin recording them again.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

This is a bizarre argument.

 

[Twin Tails]

PS2 was on all day and night.

 

[Data West]

Except the numerous times the power went out

 

[BreezyLimbo]

PS2 was on all day and night.

I don't know why anyone would argue otherwise. I mean, did nobody have a NES or SNES? You'd leave that on all night to complete a game because there was no saving back then!

 

[Liquid Shake]

Except the numerous times the power went out

I loved those episodes! The black & white power outage footage was cool.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Yeah but that didn't matter because Jeff was also playing at home and taping backup episodes, which then he and vinny would watch and comment over the video together the next work day in case the ps2 lost power overnight

It's the reason that some episodes are less than twenty minutes long, back then personal hard drives were much smaller thanks to Taiwanese flooding and he could only record so much at home. Just look it up, it's all been documented on his old formspring.

That's a lie! That's a bold faced lie! Jeff didn't own a PS2 in his home at the time. Nor did he own a copy of Persona. He mentioned borrowing the copy and starting his own playthrough, but he gave it back.

That has also been well documented in the play itself. Jeff even says as much.

 

[hamchan]

All these falsities being spread about the endurance run.
