Jeff's description of Golgo 13 makes it sound pretty cool, which is odd considering it's an anime, and anime is never cool.

The entire last hour really is just best moment after best moment.
Probably Telltale's best game yet, beating even TWD.
Yeah, I just hope some of them eventually play it. I'd love to hear them talk about the game.
Because Valve sucks ass at designing their storefront and have managed to make it worse since the last redesign.
I really need to get on those games.
Instead I just bought Nuclear Throne. ¯\_(ツ
_/¯They seem like a cool company. I remember this little video about them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsBIE2njA80
And that was before some of their newer successful games. The breadth of the games they make, while being all pretty much great, is quite impressive as well.
Divinity: Original Sin:EE!
i don't understand what they're doing ever
Even in the first three minutes Vinny's editing is so good.
I like the weird way Vinny says stuff. "We turned on fire and blew up." It's like when he was telling Brad to "put the magic on" enemies in Demon Souls.

They absolutely nail that last episode. The writing is great, the cast is great, and unlike other TT games the impact your decisions make really do affect how things play out.Beat Moment or Sequence should rightfully be Borderlands' Title Sequences.
But it won't be.
Might be the best thing they've done, if not it's a really close second place to twd:s1
Played through Tales from the Borderlands yesterday and thought it was a bit... meh. Kinda funny at times, but nothing special. And my god is there virtually no interactivity with that thing. The title sequences were pretty good though.
Anyways, time to watch Project B.E.A.S.T.

Perfect plan, what could possibly go wrong?

Yeah, I wasn't really feeling it either. It was okay, but nothing amazing. Maybe the novelty of Telltale games has worn off on me.
Sometimes I think there's some sort of Stockholm Syndrome effect where the shitty writing of the Borderlands games is making people think that TftB's decent writing is way better than it actually is.
Or possibly you're unable to tell amazing writing even when it slaps you in the face.
I watched LPs of TWD S1, TWD S2 and Wolf Among Us, so TftB was the first Telltale game I played myself. Played 1 hour of Borderlands 2. All that might affect why Tales from the Borderlands is my game of the year. (Stick of Truth was last year's btw)
But I'm glad you gave it a chance.
But I'm glad you gave it a chance.
Like almost all video games, TftB's writing isn't great. But what that game does have is flashes where the writing, action, and (most importantly) editing comes together to create a truly fantastic moment.
But yeah, the interactivity is minimal which is why they're able to edit things in a way which most video games cannot due to control and gameplay. Not to keep banging the drum, but that's what impressed me so much with Soma, it doesn't have that luxury but still nails all the story beats and atmosphere.

Operation I need to stay up for at least another 16 hours and I'm already way more tired than I thought I was is underway! I'm going to watch GBEast play Contradiction.
It is a legit way to fix a sleep schedule. You feel like shit for a day and you might get a massive headache from sleep deprivation but it works.

Kerbal: Project B.E.A.S.T. is so good.
I agree, he needs to move back to sweeping the floor.

vinny's proven he can pretty much just blunder his way through anything. but I will say that changing out those late stage engines for something more efficient (in space)/lower power will solve a lot of their problems.
but seriously, lol @ vinny counting on terminal velocity on the moon and alex suggesting the parachute

Giantbomb is basically a vlogger site.
They found a nice way to include some action scenes with those wusses Rhys and Vaughn.
Yeah they've definitely improved those action sequences since TWD S1 but mashing Q and pressing E still isn't that great. The characters are pretty cool though and the extended BL universe/DLC has a lot of unexplored stuff
He's kind of done a grocery haul video.
Yeah but he refused to rank anything outside the 7/10-10/10 range so in his heart he's still a video games critic.

Though funnily enough he ranks things outside of that range pretty often at giantbomb.

Taco Bell's just that good.
It's his wine and cheese fancy boss making him drum up controversy for the clicks I hear.

Though funnily enough he mostly mark things down because he doesn't think it has good value.
And most of the reason that he likes taco bell is because he thinks it's good value because it's cheap.
