That's the one, thanks!
'Universe'? I thought the Xeno- games were all unrelated and the title just signified it was by the same creator. Obviously given it's the same creator, he'd be exploring similar ideas throughout.
I honestly know very little about the Xeno stuff aside from what games are in it, which I guess is more than Vinny. Haha.

I talked about it in the corrections email I sent, but Xenosaga and Xenogears have a ton of connections to be considered in the same universe, even if it technically can't be confirmed since Square owns the Xenogears IP and Namco owns the Xenosaga IP. Xenoblade is more of its own thing, since it didn't really start as a Xeno title, which is why its different thematically from the rest of the Xeno franchise. Its more of a spiritual successor to the franchise than a pretty blatant sequel in the way Gears is to Saga.
The Xeno franchise was originally meant to be 6 games with Xenogears being the 5th (confirmed in the Perfect Works book) and Xenosaga being the first 2 or 3 (though that's more of a fan rumor based on speculations)

Man. All this hate for David from beast. I mean i understand it, but for my route Chloe being a massive shit heel early on kind of mitigates him. I might have changed my mind if saw him also Chloe though, which I didn't get.
Wonder how they'll react to chapter 5.

Great article from Austin, especially the WWE segment.
Most talented roster the WWE may have ever seen, but the writing is beyond horrendous to where it interferes with the match as no one cares about what's going on in the ring.

Yea
Saga and Gears were related where Gears would have been the 5th game in the entire series, hell it was one of the reasons the Saga games got much hype when it was going.

Jeff Lode Runner Bombcastica on Thursday.
what a lode
The funniest thing to me is Alexs immense hatred for Warren which I can only think comes from seeing himself in Warren

Everyone has been a Warren at some point in their life.
I appreciate Vinny's tendency to explore and experiment, which has brought out the best content in Giant Bomb, but sometimes there are the typical context clues and game indicators that implicitly tell the player "now's not the time for that, you won't get anything."

Of course Austin would pick the robot as his character in Overwatch, lol
Everyone hates Warren, fuck that guy.
Yeah but a lot of the times Alex has tried to get vinny to move on there actually has been some other option or thing for vinny to interact with. It would be a shame if they missed some of that stuff.
I literally only watched that show for Bridget Regan. She is...ridiculously gorgeous in that show.
She is the only thing I remember about that show. The only thing.

Cinematic Titanic, Joel et al's post MST3K thing
I remember her and that the wizard guy had a weird face. And that the show was terrible and I watched all of it.
He sold out.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. I hope there's a single, I've had it on loop hahaha
Jason continues to be the best duder

I was wondering too.
Literally was just interested in seeing what Cinematic Titanic was up to, played the video for curiosity's sake, and they popped up.

That's super cool, congrats to the people who kept it going. It made me watch one of the best quick looks ever again.
That's the least crazy reasoning, haha. That seemed like an old tour, are they still doing road shows? Couldn't find any information on their site.
