Austin's a big persona fan so if it were to happen, I could see that combo.

Goddamn jeff got absolutely fucked over in MPP5.
I just finished watching the full stream. What an amazing MPP. And you're right, Jeff got worked really hard by that game.

At the rotating lever part, everyone but jeff got coins.
Jeff got squashed by a thwomp.
I nearly threw up laughing.
This playlist I made might come in handy.

Both Jeff and Vinny gave up free time to get Persona 4 up on the site back in the day.
Vinny has less free time nowadays, and Austin constantly reminds us he has no free time, so lets stop this rumour right now.

Didn't vinny play persona 4 on the site precisely because he wouldn't have enough time to play it on his own free time?

But they also came in during weekends, and sometimes played until late into the evening just to get episodes together in time

That's if they stick with the actual endurance run format.
As opposed to these days where they usually make it a weekly or bi-weekly feature.
Last parts of MGScanlon being the exception.

Cool, thanks.

If they end up doing anything special for Persona 5, I would like Vinny to fly back to SF to record the QL for the game with Jeff. That's a huge ask, but it would be a nice thing to happen because of their history with the franchise.
Maybe the release date will be well positioned, so it will fall in line with GOTY stuff - like the Quick Look for Persona Q.

Not going to happen.

There is a chance Persona 5 might be a November / December release in US - if so then I can see them holding of the QL until they get together for GOTY (which was early Dec in 2014)

TBH my expectation is that Jeff drops Persona 5 early because he doesn't care about the new characters as much as the Investigation Team, and Vinny never plays it because people with two kids don't play JRPGs.
I'd be happy to be proven wrong.

I went into MPP5 thinking the crowd would ruin the whole thing.
They made the 4 hours bearable! Some people are so sensitive
We're only sensitive when it's one person given a platform to say something stupid/offensive/just generally terrible. There are some past Giant Bomb PAX panels you can watch to experience the most awkward people that have ever existed.
Thankfully we had the choir effect where one awful voice is covered up by a whole group of people, making it quite good.

I'm not able to stream MPP5 where I am right now. Is there a download link or hosting on the site somewhere that I can nab later?
Not yet
If a Persona 5 endurance run were to miraculously happen, having GBE play it sounds perfect to me.
Bums me out a little that Vinny has been able to put only a couple hours into Bloodborne and Witcher 3 and doesn't expect to play much of MGSV. Nevermind Fallout 4. His insight into games of that magnitude has been missed these last couple years. Oftentimes he's the most articulate amongst the GB crew in game discussions, particularly during GOTY season where he can be a great mediator while everyone else wants to stick to their guns.
On the bright side, his hunt for smaller games has brought attention to stuff like Ronin and Cradle that might've otherwise gone unnoticed. Plus his kids don't have a neglectful dad, so that's cool too I guess.

Just managed to catch up on MPP5. Outstanding - Dan sells it so well.
So Paxamania in just over two hours? Hoping the camera operators and sound mix are better for this year. it's a hard show to film, but even then the production values are always a bit sketchy. If anyone with a sign sits in front of a camera, I hope they get put through a table.

I just bought a graphics card and it comes with MGSV. Since everyone here is an expert, does anyone think it will be worth playing for someone who is not at all invested in the story of Metal Gear? I have not played any of them. Its either that or I'll sell it.
Your best course of action would be to watch all of metal gear scanlon and then play mgsV
Having a live audience makes it infinitely more enjoyable I think. Recording in the studio just feels a bit sterile.

It is supposed to be a good open world game, but you will probably lose out on a lot if you have not experience the crotch grabbing, magic science, pew-pew, mechs, shannagains beforehand.
Once the random shout-outs died down, and the crowd became a... crowd, it was great. Reminded me of being at a tennis match.

I'll have you know that nanomachines are a real life science you can go look them up they exist.

Eh, I don't think I'll have the time for the 60 hours it would take for that.
Yeah, I figured. I'll hold off on selling it until its out. I kinda just want something new to play on my first PC.
I will admit to being wrong about the live audience for Mario Party Party. I didn't think it was possible for Mario Party to be exciting, but the crowd definitely made it enjoyable to watch. On the other hand, I don't know if enjoyment is what I want out of a Mario Party Party.

Its going to be really interesting watching Metal Gear Scanlon V. I wonder just how many side missions Drew will even bother to do. Im about 21 hours in at the moment and only on mission 17.
I think Drew is going to be a bit disappointed in the lack of Big Boss VO and story. A lot of it comes through the cassette tapes (are they just gonna sit and listen to those?) and just kind of peicing things together that you are slowly learning from the random missions you undertake. Im still hopeful the story will ramp up but its not nearly as focused as previous games. If it wasnt for the amazing gameplay I would probably be disappointed in the game.

I'm guessing Myggen is creating the Rumble thread.
Yup.

The additions of DOD, Austin, and Turi into the mix should make this pretty good.
Last night they were trying to enlist PewDiePie. Why not just ask Bill Gates what he's up to.

He's too busy playing Fusion Frenzy, his favorite game.
