I never think about Far Cry but I don't assume my lack of interest means the franchise is forgotten :3

I reached a point where I knew how many enemies are appearing and from where at all times lol.

I feel like Jeff said recently that he had no interest in ever playing MGS V again and that he was actually getting some fatigue towards the end of his time with it.
Mario Maker still has a chance.

Well, that's probably because they keep pumping out Far Cry games, right? It's hard to forget a franchise when it releases a game every other year.

Rockstar doesn't pump out games, that's why they're memorable!
It's what happened to me. Right after playing MGSV I would have given it my GOTY but seeing all the awesome things in Mario Maker has swayed me that it can go to either of them. Mario Maker has legs.
How you seen his video views? Patrick isn't exactly a "hotshot" youtuber by any metric.
I love you, Scoops.

Their games are memorable because they are usually good.
What's shameful about it? Jeff likes shooters. What's wrong with a person liking the type of games they like?
Yeah, LA Podfest. Someone asks a question about Game of the Generation, Jeff misinterprets it as Game of the Year and immediately says MGSV over Mario Maker.

It's weird, I finished the story of MGSV and put it aside for a couple weeks, coming back to it yesterday I sunk in a whole afternoon just getting lost in it again. The verticality of the FOB level design completely changes the entire equation of the mechanics and tools and is a refreshing challenge to wrap your head around after the mostly flat terrains of Afghanistan and Africa.
I could see it easily taking GOTY if they fire it up again.

Yeah, me and Dan are going thru some deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep hidden memories of playing and watching here.

So just to fuel speculation, I'll say that recent weeks have me wondering if I'm as 100% sure about making MGS V my GOTY. Mario Maker has been so, so fun. Not saying I'm swaying that way, I'm just saying that I'm not set in stone between the two as of this moment. They're certainly the best two of the year.

I'm just glad that Mario Maker ended up being everything that it should have been
you know, except having SMB2

I've said multiple times in this thread that I should probably get Mario Maker...but I should probably get Mario Maker. Dan's clearly excited. I've never been interested in a game just because Giant Bomb are playing it but I'll admit a lot of my interest is coming from playing the bullshit levels the guys are making.

GOTY casts are going to be so good this year.
I'll be really surprised if more Fallout tops Mario Maker or MGSV.

Mario Maker is that kind of game that is extremely fun but still has room for improvements if they make a sequel.
Like being able to create a set of levels, add a few of the missing enemies/items etc. better sorting options and so on.

Uncharted 1 still looks really good at times(although I'm sure a lot of that has to do with Blueprint)
Can't wait to get to 1 and 3.
And Mario Maker is grand but I wish there were more options. Stuff like slopes not existing as of yet just make it feel a bit empty. People still create amazing levels, but there's a certain amount of jank to some of the solutions for getting around missing items.
And why do people think they won't like Fallout? They tend to go for open world garbage in general so I don't see why there's any reason to think the game is so bad it won't at least place in the top ten. Although of course it doesn't really matter

It'll be even more fun when Patrick starts the challenge this week.
End of the year casts should be very interesting!

Is it wrong to worry about Mario Maker if I'm going to have a data cap soon?
I have been on the fence about getting it.

I think it will crack top 10 just because it seems like a game that most of them will play and enjoy. Unless it gets cut for someone's personal game that they want on the list, but I don't know if there will a lot of room for that this year.

it doesn't actually download that much though right? I'd have to imagine each level can't be more than a few mb
e: it says here that the save size is 80mb and you can fit 120 levels in there
your business is appreciated

pretty much all the interesting stuff to research comes later than that
Be sure to let us know when you beat Witcher 3, because the end of that game leaves a hell of an impression.

Fuck man, the research is literally spoilers in just how much they dramatically change the game.

How do you mean? For me the last really meaningful thing to research was a silent tranq sniper rifle. I mean there was more after that but as someone who tried to get S-Ranks, a lot of it was a no-go for me.

Bro there is a stun arm upgrade that calls down lightning.
I can't believe i played this for 111 hours and never used this
It's very rare that GB picks the correct game for GOTY so it's not a surprise.

The beginning of Metal Gear Solid V: "holy fuck I'm gonna put balloons on everything"
The end of Metal Gear Solid V: "man fuck balloons, balloons are fucking scrub tier"
Mario Maker has no balloon arc.

Undertale gets kind of nuts towards the end. Really glad that I played it.
I don't think it'll be that heated between Mario Maker and MGSV. It sounds like everyone enjoyed MGSV, while Dan and Jeff are the only ones really taken by MM. Even if MM is Dan's personal pick (yeah right) I don't see him putting up much of a fight against MGSV.
Itll be fun seeing which the fan favorites get Mario 3D World'd (Witcher? Bloodborne?).

what the fuck lol. I platinumed the game and never saw this.
