Content!

 

[Brashnir]

I shall accept this as a suitable temporary replacement for OGS.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Yay cont....oh, that's probably a fighting game.

What is Ranking of Fighters?

 

[CoolBatteryCharge]

I'm hoping for a competition across multiple fighting games.

Or just multiple King of Fighters games.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

I'm expecting 5 hours of MKX

 

[Zaph]

Doubtful. I've edited a lot of it, but it's a huge pain in the ass. He's constantly texting and going outside to smoke or peeing or any number of things that I have to edit out/around. I'll be at a lake in Minnesota from tomorrow until Tuesday, so hopefully soon after that.

Well, if it's half as good as the last one, it'll be worth the wait.

Also, the way you just described your dad could easily be substituted for any teenager.

Perfect, an hour before the England match.

Looks like Jason and Jeff are going to rank the best (or their favorite) fighting games. Or something.

Finally, time for BIOFREAKS to get the recognition it deserves.

What is Ranking of Fighters?

Well, you see, it all began in '94 and kept on rollin' in '95. Pieces were in place in '96, but it came to an end in '97. Now it comes and here we go, ROF is here again.

 

[MassiveNights]

I just finished The Witcher. It was intense.

And then I see Giant Bomb have new content up JUST IN TIME.

You see, Fame Douglas created DOATEC and then...

 

[Johnny Ryall]

So it's a TNT?

Believe it or not, I recently thought a lot about Biofreaks and seeked out lots of YouTube videos.

 

[MassiveNights]

I hope it's 16 hours of Jackie Chan in Fists Of Fire.

No MGScanlon next week then

A somewhat regular fighting game-centric show would make me truly frothy at the waistband.

 

[Hot Coldman]

^ Oh god no.

I hope you watched Maximilian Dood's Boss Rush video on it. That was something else.

Also Witcher 3 is half off on GMG today. 30 bucks, I have a feeling I should buy it?

aye

oui

[Brashnir]

Starting at the bottom and working their way up.

 

[MassiveNights]

Yeah, for sure. It's one of the best RPGs I've ever played. I sunk 100+ hours into it and only got half the achievements.

I can't wait for the DLC.

It was the game I'd been waiting for on 'new gen' to become obsessed with. Nothing was hitting the spot but this had me hooked.

I absolutely did and afterwards watched a bunch of the Scrublords videos. I hope Jeff and Jason will also play Battle Construction Vehicles. The very existence of this game is hilarious.

 

[mattp]

i was wondering why the fuck they were playing toshinden lol

GMG is still selling Witcher 3? Did that whole situation get worked out?

 

[MassiveNights]

I hope everyone is prepared for how good the Toshinden 3 music is.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

There was a situation? I just got it redeemed on GOG fine.

Fucking yes.

CDPR was against GMG selling The Witcher 3 at launch.

Well shit, now I feel bad if it wasn't resolved.

Although I can't find anything else about it after that kerfuffle on any news source.

 

[alr1ght]

Meh, don't worry about it. GMG was just using W3 from an alternate supplier for a loss leader.

 

[Noaloha]

I think it'd be fun if they did a thing where they invited some pro-level fighting game player into the office and played that guest's game of choice in a big long winner-stays-on session. You'd get the double thrill of potential underdog victories coupled with watching someone who really knows their shit show off crazy stuff.

Giant Bomb's Wednesday Night Scrublords

In Ssapo we trust.

Sweet, streaming live on youtube now. Not just an E3 thing.

Yeah really looks like they officially dumped Twitch.

At somepoint during the podcast Dan said something about Twitch and Jeff corrected him saying "I think you mean Youtube streaming".

Weird move to suddenly ditch them like that.

tbh I've always found Twitch streaming to be kind of shit, and I appreciate that Youtube archives on the fly so that if I miss something, I can just slide back and catch what I missed. I don't think you can do that on Twitch.

 

[Aaron]

Yeah, now that youtube has finally figured this streaming thing out, they're much better overall. I won't miss twitch.

 

[Felix Lighter]

The seem to have started early.

Youtube Gaming are actively perusing deals in the run up to launch. CBSi signed one.

Great that Twitch finally has some competition in the profit-sharing gaming space.

Correct. Youtube's implementation of "DVR" or whatever people call that feature is IMMENSELY better. Twitch has a godawful interface and a horrible flash-based player. Youtube's is so much better from a viewer standpoint. The only missing thing is chat (which honestly I can live without 90% of the time), which I think youtube's gaming thing is working on? I think I saw a screenshot of live chat there somewhere.

Anyhow, I will not miss twitch. Give me the googles.

 

[Megasoum]

Yeah I guess.... But.... I hate change!

Edit: They're also going on Twitch... I guess the exclusivity deal was only for E3 but now that the tech is there to stream to Youtube, might as well check that box too

[Felix Lighter]

Twitches big advantage over Youtube is momentum. They've established a community and set of sub communities. Giant Bomb has never engaged in any of that, so the switch to Youtube makes a lot of sense.

 

[MassiveNights]

YouTube is much better, for my browsing habits.

I really never got on board with Twitch. I think the community will fall off pretty hard when YouTube gaming gets up to speed.

 

[Teddified]

I'm ready for some completely objective and scientific ranking of fighters.

 

[Twin Tails]

Spoiler

 

[Glitchesarecool]

what exactly am I watching

 

[alr1ght]

Alexis still hasn't fixed twitch's awful player yet?

 

[Zeouterlimits]

This opening is a greatly terrible thing.
