Stefanie Joosten, the woman who plays Quiet, has been streaming herself playing TPP, and she is actually better than Drew, no joke. I'm talking: stealth, lining up head shots, noticing helmets and such and changing her strategy. It's very impressive, considering MGSV is very systems and control heavy.

A woman as in female? Color me impressed.

Are you saying it's impressive because a woman is playing it and doing well? lol

Anyways, Drew sucks at video games, this is known. The man can create pdf documents with step by step instructions detailing how to successfully start up a jet plane but he can't grasp very simple things in the MGS series.

 

[Twin Tails]

Drew was pretty good in closed off Ground Zeroes.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

What's with the pitchforks? I think he's just surprised that someone who plays a character in the game would be proficient at the game itself. I mean, how good do you think Kevin Spacey is at Call of Duty?

He sure wrecks ppl in Killzone.

 

[demidar]

I'm more interested in her reaction to the skeevy cameraman.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

I think I'm trapped in a time loop. We've done this all before, over and over!

 

[Jintor]

Do you ever wish you could rewind time?

 

[Piston Hyundai]

what do you guys think game of the year will be

 

[strafer]

That is the one thing I hate, people telling me I'm playing wrong or you should do this.

It's fucking open world, let me play how I want.

 

[demidar]

Do you ever wish you could rewind time?

Oh yeah, you can do that in Braid.

 

[Herbs]

from Giant Bomb?

Life is Strange is in my top 3.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Life is Strange is in my top 3.

I was really turned off by the dialogue in the first chapter or two, but that game surprised me with how good it started to play, especially by chapter... 3, I think,

Spoiler

when she learns how to use photos to go back in time.

And damned if chapter 4 isn't the most cliffhangery cliffhanger I've ever seen.

Is the final chapter out yet?

Still waiting on it to continue from chapter 2.

Oct 20th. I have a feeling this is why it might get snubbed from lists for some people, since it didn't all come out at once, and Chapter 5 is taking a real long time to come out... Although I have to assume that's because of the climax.

Late October for Episode 5.

And yeah I'm a broken record, Life is Strange is great and I hope GB gives it a look once all episodes are out (probably the East Coast crew would be more likely).

There are non-condescending ways to express that.

Navarro

oh, he's at the robot restaurant

 

[Intheflorsh]

I hope Austin Walker makes a good case for Undertale during GOTY season seeing as how it's objectively the best PC game ever made.

At least get it in the list somewhere.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

If we actually want to be real about our games of the year, these come to mind for me, in no real order (except MGSV probably being number 1)

Dying Light
Mario Maker
MGSV
Hotline Miami 2 (if the level editor drops by the end of the year)
Killing Floor 2
Rare Replay (okay this is cheating but still)
That Forza Horizon Fast & Furious thing (perfect thing to scratch my racing game itch this year)

I still need to play a lot of games I've bought, like Axiom Verge and Ori. Fallout 4 is probably going to be disappointing but still good enough to make my list. Same goes for Black Ops III.

All of the Beast crew have expressed interest in it so I'm hoping that they do.

 

[Jintor]

i really haven't played enough this year to say too much. I think the only things I played that came out this year are

Cities Skyline
GTAV (PC)
Crypt of the Necrodancer
DanganRonpa AE: Ultra Despair Girls
Metal Gear Solid V
Splatoon
P4DAN

Of those two, I vaguely regret GTAV and DanganRonpa AE. Kindasorta MGSV but not really because I played it for like 120 hours so *shrug*

Good man for including Dying Light.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Splatoon might be GOTY for me. I haven't taken up Mario Maker yet, but I don't think I've had such fun with a game since I first started TF2 or Titanfall. I'll have to think about it in November more, still need to pick up Dying Light when that drops in price during the sales.

God do I want Titanfall 2.

 

[Twin Tails]

Halo 5 is probably my GOTY. Witcher 3 though, it left me sleepless for many moons.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Good man for including Dying Light.

When Dead Island first came out and I got my hands on it, my initial thought was "man, a sequel to this could be really good," and DL lived up to that. Hell, the game's internal files refer to it as "DW," so it's technically even more of a sequel than most people realize.

That being said, I have a feeling that Dying Light is going to be what Wolfenstein was last year: the game that came out too early in the year to be in anyone's mind when it's time to compose year-end lists.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

I should really try to put more time into Cities skylines and Crypt of the Necrodancer, I really enjoyed the couple of hours I spent with them.

Glad to see a nod for Killing Floor 2, it's already great and it's still got sometime before the full release.

 

[Jintor]

i did watch GBeast play through until dawn and contradiction i guess.

Brad recently mentioned it as one of his favourite games of the year, and that's a good man to have in your corner.

 

[strafer]

I wonder if they'll do an Uncharted HD collection QL.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Yeah, but he's already got a lot on his plate in terms of filibuster material.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Yeah, I seriously doubt that they would do a quick look of the uncharted HD collection.

 

[Twin Tails]

I wonder if they'll do an Uncharted HD collection QL.

I could see Dan reviewing it and giving it a QL like he did GOW3HD.

 

[hamchan]

I wonder if they'll do an Uncharted HD collection QL.

I don't think so. More QLs for obscure indie games instead.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Yeah, I seriously doubt that they would do a quick look of the uncharted HD collection.

Why? They've done quicklooks of a number of HD collections.

 

[Zombie James]

Ironsights, Drew.

 

[oti]

I want an Uncharted Collection QL and a Zombi QL. Jeff liked it on the Wii U so why not.

 

[LiK]

Is the final chapter out yet?

Still waiting on it to continue from chapter 2.

final chapter comes out Oct 20

also, why is everyone telling Drew to use iron sights? I barely used it and got plenty of headshots no problem.

 

[Volcynika]

Same.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Yeah, but uncharted? Pfft.

Spoiler

I was being facetious.

Same.

Yeah, only time I ever used them were for assault rifles when shit went down. The tranq pistol was pretty easy to get headshots without.

Same. I actually think the iron sights is hurting him when he goes into Rambo mode. He seems to aim much better in third person than first person.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Crap, I forgot Transformers Devastation is coming out. That will hit my top list pretty easily.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Yeah, but uncharted? Pfft.

Spoiler

I got monked.

 

[LiK]

Crap, I forgot Transformers Devastation is coming out. That will hit my top list pretty easily.

I'm hoping it's good.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

I'm hoping it's good.

It definitely looks good.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Everything is looking perfect, and that's what's worrying me.

 

[Xater]

Everything is looking perfect, and that's what's worrying me.

I don't know, I am definitely worried about the scope of the game. Except for the look and combat it seems quite limited.

s0mekindabl0g asked:Hey jeff, where's that Johnny V podcast about infinity. You mentioned it the week of the LA podfest trip and it's been 2 weeks. Just wondering when it will be up I need a Johnny V fix

Haven’t had time to take a look at it. I’d like to run it this week, but next week is probably more likely.
