Classic video from the basement office

check out awkward baby Drew!
I remember I did this challenge straight after watching the video the day it came out, it feels horrible.

I love Vinny's attempt

that's probably the first GB thing I ever saw. kind of appropriate.

I'm watching Metal Gear Scanlon 3 Part 2 right now...

I really wish Big Boss spoke in MGS5. What could have been! (NinjaEdit: I guess I'm just a Hayter.)

my favorite part of that is when Ryan comes up and just takes a swig of it with no reaction

The war economy officially began when they started producing promotional coffee cups for mercenary groups.

It's almost been two months since last Demo Derby.

It's not like they don't have enough demo discs laying around...

I was watching this yesterday while drinking a gin and tonic. Good stuff.

MGScanlon >>>> Derby

 

[Glitchesarecool]

i have never been more right

[Heimbeck]

Is it possible for Alex to finish the game in part 3? They mentioned that they didn't have much left.

I think he has about four hours left, so it would probably be two more parts.

 

[strafer]

I think he has about four hours left, so it would probably be two more parts.

They should not waste two more parts.

Just do a 4 hour part. That's nothing.

MGS Scanlon did it with the finale episode of the first game.

 

[ratcliffja]

This is correct. Demo Derby is great too.

 

[fstop]

Mary did the last three chapters in 90 minutes, but she wasn't very diligent about looking for clues.

 

[Backfoggen]

Scanlon 5 is gonna be weird. Also long.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

I'd be okay with one installment a week. There's no rush now.

 

[TraBuch]

Episode 16 of TPP sucks.

 

[Heimbeck]

MGS Scanlon did it with the finale episode of the first game.

If they did it on a Friday then they couldn't go for four hours, as that could cross over with UPF.
Maybe if they did it on Thursday they could complete it.

Mary did the last three chapters in 90 minutes, but she wasn't very diligent about looking for clues.

Yeah I guess Alex could do it quicker, it just took me about nine hours and Alex is about five hours in.

 

[CoolBatteryCharge]

MGScanlon is Frasier to Demo Derby's Cheers. Both are great, but the spin-off is superior.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Episode 16 of TPP sucks.

Not as much as Episode 18.

 

[AuthenticM]

I hope we get the first episode of MGS on monday night.

 

[Myggen]

finally watching last week's unpro friday and drew's silent look of pain when everyone starts ribbing him about playing and finishing MGSV is freaking hilarious

Time stamp? I scrubbed through it but didn't find when they did that

Very first GB content I listened to was the E3 2009 Leigh Alexander bombcast.

Yeah, they were talking about thursday.

 

[tryagainlater]

His silent look of pain will be even worse when he actually plays the game.

I don't hate MGSV despite the story misgivings, but I think Drew will.

 

[sproutella]

I mean I guess you are committed to your wrongness

 

[f0rk]

I really don't think MGScanlon is going to be worth the 50 episodes or however long it's going to take. It's a great game but doesn't lend itself to this format

 

[jaina]

My first GB exposure was the Ashes Cricket QL. Thank god for that. Got even lucky with the Vinny + Jeff + Danny team.

 

[shadyspace]

Can't wait for Dan and Drew to sit silently listening to ten minutes worth of tapes.

 

[strafer]

Lets see what they're going to to before judging okay?

 

[tuxfool]

I have to wonder how entertaining it will be to watch. No offense to Drew, but I don't think he is going to benefit from the creativity the game allows.

 

[CoolBatteryCharge]

Just gonna toss out this video of V-Pain:

As someone who has never seen Frasier or Cheers, I agree with this.

I find it weirdly reassuring that GB has had trouble getting close ups in focus since forever. See also, every mailbag.

 

[slightconfuse]

Watching UPF

"Gone Home, Metal Gear" not games .
Llol

 

[Oxirane]

The cheap sound module arrived, but I don't have any small speakers. It current uses an earbud instead so the volume is very low. I also found a smaller servo.

[giant_frying_pan]

Metal Gear is a non-game,.

Brain Training? More like...Brain Draining.

 

[Strax]

Maybe the Demo Derby shortage is because they are now 3 doing it.
For me Jeff is a must because he was working and writing about these games when they came out while Dan and Drew have sometimes never heard of the game(s) or remember playing the demo or renting it and so on.
BUT GIVE ME MORE DEMO DERBY

GRRRR

 

[Plasma]

And it doesn't get worse than this.

I sigh every time I see it.

Those are terrible sideburns not a beard.

 

[mnz]

There comes a point when sideburns are the beard.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Catching up on the parts I missed of this week's Until Dawn Play Date. I thiiink I figured it out, maybe somebody who has played it can let me know if I'm close.

Spoiler

Alex was the killer the whole time.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Pope has mutton chops, and reet good'uns at that.

If it was up to me, Giant Bomb would cancel all content other than Demo Derby and Mario Party Party.

Would you bring back Question of the Week?

 

[mintyice]

I really can't decide if I want to buy Mario Maker.
I worry that after awhile all the levels will start to feel "samey".

Or that the system for finding levels is just bad.

I don't know. I worry I am going to plop $60 down, make a few levels no one will ever actually try. And play a bunch of poorly made mario levels and go "welp"

People just make really bad levels.

It's cool, but not $60 cool, and it probably won't go down in price anytime soon.
