Drew's section on UPF was pretty good because the rest of the guys, probably thanks to Steve Gaynor, were actually paying attention and riffing on it.

Yeah I thought it was good too. Steve was a great guest, brought lots of energy and had good camaraderie with the group

 

[Jothel]

WItcher 3: Hearts of Fuck Yeah more like it
I should get a job naming things

 

[Myggen]

Pony Island looks pretty cool.

 

[tuxfool]

Only wrong people think that though.

I should be wrong more often. Being wrong feels great.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

How's life on the International Space Station?

Man I fucking wish. That'd be so rad...

 

[Incandenza]

I went to sleep and when I woke up there was hella Witcher talk. Hell yeah.

Yesterday I learned about that missable part of one of the Hearts of Stone contracts and it blew my mind. I knew that quest seemed weirdly anticlimactic!

 

[Xater]

I don't get why everyone is hating on Drew. I was interested in that game and I thought it was overall a fun segment with lots of dumb talk.

 

[sproutella]

the kingdom game austin is playing on friends at the table is waaaaay too complex to follow as a listener imho

The stars without numbers x microscope 'faction' game? Because yeah I have no idea what the rules are for that one. They don't seem to be playing 'to win' though, which makes me not care what's happening mechanically and be cool with hearing the weird stories they come up with.

 

[Megasoum]

So I fell down a West Wing bottomless pit once again... WW is one of my favorite TV show ever and I watch all seven seasons at least once a year.

Anyway... Basically what I'm saying is that I haven't watched any GB content since Thursday and I have a feeling I will have a terrible backlog soon.

they're doing some weird atax / jace / orth flashback game where people make predictions and decisions and shit and it's really annoying to follow. thankfully they're done though.

No comment on his game this week because I wasn't really paying attention, but he has brought some real clunkers on past UPFs. He's also brought some of the best stuff though and at least usually seems to put a bit of effort into his picks.

Yeah, nit everything can be gold, but at least he seems to put some thought into it.

Pony Island I had heard from everyone and his mother before Brad showed it off. So that was very uninteresting to me.

 

[Salty Catfish]

Pony Island looks pretty cool.

It's definitely worth picking up, though I'd avoid watching any more footage than what was shown on UPF since much of the fun comes in the surprises the game throws at you. I cleared it in about two hours and thought it was absolutely worth the $5 price tag.

? I nearly missed it myself and thought it was great how that game rewarded unprompted exploration.

WTF?

I just played some Grim Fandango with tank controls. Super easy.

I was not joking or exaggerating when I said that he made around 25~30 minutes of progress in his first five hours with the game.

And then he stopped playing it? There are only four episodes on his channel.

I liked watching it but yeah he made such little progress then he stopped playing it

What movie was Dan actually thinking about when he was talking about a dude going back to the 1700s and gunning down guys on horseback?

he's a smart man. the second part, I can't vouch for.

Timecop?

It was time cop, but it was the late 1800's as he was strealing confederate gold if I'm not mistaken.

 

[TraBuch]

Huh. I don't remember that scene from Timecop. At all. The way Gaynor was reacting, I thought he was laughing at Dan describing an entirely different movie and thinking it was Timecop.

 

[daveo42]

I think after episode 4 of LiS, I'm kind if disappointed it didn't make the top 10. What an absolute fucking shock to the system that whole episode was.

 

[Death Metalist]

Since AGDQ ended I'm getting caught up on GB content, great UPF. Picked up Pony Island as it looked pretty dope(it is). Speaking of Timecop, I laughed when Jeff mentioned the splits because that's one of the things I remember about the movie the most because it on the back of the VHS tape(own it since forever).

Also, there was a Timecop 2.

Age doesn't help you with tank controls

I hope he returns to RE. It was damn fun, it's good to note that he was playing on normal and when it comes to RE games it's no joke especially when it comes to ammo which is what he was having a problem with, considering he wanted to kill every zombie he came across with haha.

Once again made the mistake of thinking content goes live on Sunday, not Monday.

I swear it gets me every time.

I would pay upwards of $5 to watch this new kerbal video right now

Is Metal Gear Scanlon dead?
How long has it been since they recorded a new episode?

 

[mnz]

They were still setting up the studio. And they can't abandon it now, during the fifth season, but I don't think the motivation is at the highest level.

edit: Shenmue is the 3rd best game of all time.

I hope Alex doesn't see this.

 

[Joeku]

Yeah, guys, you should play Pony Island. It's only a couple hours long and $5. It was rad.

QLCrew seems to suggest there's something going on in 3 days. It looks like the MGS4 loading screen video.

The Verge now covering vamping devices? Oh how they have fallen...

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Vape stores are surprisingly common around my area, and there are a number of kiosks in the mall for it.

None of them have good names though.

Yeah same here... They all try to look super stylish with leather couches and wood counters... Kinda funny actually.

Out of all the shit people did in futuristic cyber punk movies vaping seems the absolute lamest.

I hope not. There's a specific part near the end I want Drews reaction on.

They should just watch the rest of the cutscenes on YouTube and then take the series out back

I really want them to play Rising

Timecop?

I have no recollection of this being in that movie. I always remember the time travelling being limited to more modern settings. I thought Dan was maybe remember one of the sequels or possibly the TV show when he described that scene.

Clearly I need to rewatch Timecop.
