Even then, i'd say the 360 only dominated the first half of the generation.
As soon as kinect dropped I personally felt the PS4 was where the interesting stuff was at like TLoU

Because it did especially when it came to multiplatform games usually you'd find them performing better than the PS3 counterparts. However, by the end the PS3 gained the upper hand and it's only because of their focus on first party games.

us-focused website and personalities focusing on us-market, weird
The PS3 became a hit super late in its life, sure, but the 360 was the console to own for a long time despite the RROD problems.
Just noticed the title change, little disappointed in it. Oh well.
Yeah I agree. It may have been said here before but Jeff is much better reacting to discussions imo.
hello old friend
Jeff is very energized and freewheeling as a host of this episode (I've only listened to the first 30 minutes so far), but I think that's to a large extent because this is a one-off. I too like Brad as a host.
Also, I feel like Brad is one of the few people on the cast that at least tries to play devil's advocate and give the opposite perspective a fair shake when the discussion becomes too one-sided. That's a good characteristic in a host.JonCha said:
Great... I think whatever happened to Dan's internet caused Periscope to eat a huge chunk of the archive? There's an hour of video at the start of the stream, but after the taco bell run it's only showing 10 minutes (Dan trying to Skype), when I think there was 2 hours of taunting in between that?
Maybe alr1ght will have better luck, or possibly someone captured it live?

Yeah, I've really come to appreciate this, especially after listening to the Beastcast where everyone always agrees with everyone else and the discussion on any single topic just seems to drag after a while.

US is where it was completely dominant but it gained a lot of ground in the EU. It wasn't enough to overtake Sony there on the whole but it had big success in major regions such as the UK. The difference between 360 and PS3 in the US is substantially larger than the difference between 360 and PS3 in the EU.
Xbox also had the "hearts and minds" narrative going for it. It seemed to be the target platform for most games and it seemed to have better success for the big multi platform releases. Now I've never seen total software numbers for each platform to know if thats true, but that is definitely the impression that I got.

Wasn't the 360 still dominant in the UK? I know Sony gained threshold in the other EU countries.
I've actually felt this be a bigger problem in Bombcasts, where occasionally they just start piling on and where Jeff can be very dominant (not out of any conscious intention to be so, I'm sure, but in virtue of his seniority and knowledge of all things videogames).
Yeah I didn't mean to say it wasn't popular outside the US, just that that the 360 wasn't this dominant console in other countries.
Yeah it was very popular in the UK as well.
MS focused more on the UK tha the rest of Europe I think, and still do with the Xbox One.

My looming 7:00am alarm time overpowered my urge to watch around 2:00am, so I missed the ending. But the triumph of Scoops was inevitable. And holy shit did this thing really start to take off last night. It was trending on Twitter:

You made the right choice.
Did you actually get the true pacifist ending or did you get the neutral ending?

I don't think you can get true pacifist on your first run.
It was refreshing to have Jeff as the host again and Danny O'Dwyer is a godsend.
Oh man I didn't kill anyone but I'm not sure whether there's more or not.
I'll have to check tomorrow! Exciting.

Wait did you try restarting the game after the end? You should definitely do that

You can't, BUUUUUUT you don't have to restart the game. Just reload your save after the credits roll and... eh I'll say backtrack, how's that.
You'll get hints of what to do.

I love how you instantly know it's a Jeffcast because of the old-ass theme he always uses.

Oh this Quick Look is going to kill me isn't it.
So, give or take, that's about $3/min of LEGO
Would you go so far as to call this "a surprise"?

Kind of sad to hear Danny talk about nobody watching his Point video because it's 25 min long, but at the same time I wonder if it's not a lot of people relative to the amount of views all the other gamespot stuff probably gets. I would think Gamespot's regular video stuff would get a lot more viewers than GB's usual stuff.

Yeah, I had the same thought so I checked here (third party trend tracking site) and it was actually trending even higher than in that screenshot a few hours ago.

Yeah I don't think you can, but if you're on the right path then it's pretty obvious that it's not over.
As Coldman said, just reload your save and backtrack a little.
Any time there's a Gamespot stream I feel like the number of viewers is real low. Obviously not a direct comparison with a pre recorded video but I think it's kind of a sign that Gamespot's audience probably isn't super interested in video content.

If Dan thinks The Shield goes places and is dark only a couple season's in, I can't wait 'til he gets closer to the end. God damn that show is great.
