Bless Dan for bringing up god hand.

Still the greatest PS2 game of all time.

Bless Dan for bringing up god hand.

Still the greatest PS2 game of all time.

There's some YouTube play through that shows off the incredible number of systems in that game, and it's genuinely surprising and impressive.

Jason still owes us some God Hand.

I guess that means Mario Party 9 is the best one yet.

Vinny plays Dark Souls 3

boom

One can dream...

Someone told me on social media that it's the best one!0

Danny saved it.

GG. What the hell will I do tomorrow?

I'm going to be lost without a Bombcast to listen to tomorrow.

 

[Tubobutts]

I'm saving the bombcast for tomorrow because I believe in the values and principles upon which giant bomb was founded.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I mean it's Tuesday here. I don't know what you guys are bellyaching about.

 

[Tanner1495]

So glad I am out of school now and can listen to Bombcast/Beastcast on a weekly basis again, probably the two best podcast going right now IMO.

 

[jaina]

What the hell will I do tomorrow?

Oh.. but I'm almost done listening to this episode. Guess I'll have some sort of crisis on my usual Wednesday morning.

 

[robotrock]

I can't believe Austin liked True Detective Season 2.

My emotional high from the early Bombcast was raised even higher after I saw Danny O'Dwyer is guesting. However, a sub-2:15 length dropped my spirits again. The emotional roller coaster of the Bombcast.

Brad giveth with one hand, and taketh back with the other. Then he playeth Doom II deathmatch with his feet.

Despite all that, it was a packed podcast.

Well, it sounds like Doom is a lock for at least top 3 GotY and Uncharted will probably not make (or barely) their top 10.

 

[Gobias]

I just watched Jeff play 4 hours of Funky Barn from 4 years ago.

I don't know why I hadn't seen it before but it is truly a hidden gem.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Well, it sounds like Doom is a lock for at least top 3 GotY and Uncharted will probably not make (or barely) their top 10.

Really? Dan, Brad, Alex and Vinny all seemed to really like it, and Austin and Drew seem like they might potentially like it. I can't see how it's out of their top 10.

It will be in the top 10 easily, if only for that ending. It's weird that while some of the setpieces in this are amazing, I'm mostly left thinking about the quiet moments/ending after finishing the game a few days ago.

I'm really glad Danny mentioned that easter egg because I keep chuckling whenever I think about it when I first reached that chapter. I'm hoping more people who played the

Monkey Island

series caught it as well.

What am I going to do on Wednesday? I could do work but that's boring.

Watch all the Mario Party Parties in a row.

Well they all seem to really like it but not very enthusiastically. On the other hand, I don't know if there will be 10 games they like more, so I guess it has a chance.

I think it might be a lock for best looking game, though.

 

[User 85168]

Overwatch top 3, I guarantee it.

 

[Tubobutts]

Dark Souls 3 continues the tradition of not being on the list at all.

[LurkerPrime]

Wouldn't surprise me if Dark Souls 3 wasn't on the top ten. It feels pretty lacklustre... It's an alright game, but far from great; and honestly, the more I think back on it, the less I like it overall. Between the bugs and outright broken mechanics, it doesn't stand up to DS2 or DS1.

Overwatch top 3, I guarantee it.

If it has Drew's support, I'd believe it. He's a wildcard, that one.

So horrible there's no review thread?

 

[Twin Tails]

Austin has a copy. IDK if he'll review. IDK if anyone cares about this game or knows of its existence.

Alright he will

I'm rewatching the 2015 Bethesda presser since all those games are out

except the battlecry game(Seriously wtf happened to battlecry)

Except Dishonored 2 too!

I'm really intrigued to see what Prey 2 has become at this year's conference.

No surprise there!

That's right, this was before Overwatch was revealed wasn't it? When the uh, Bethesda presser happened last year. Man, Battlecry and Battleborn both got blown the fuck out.

Everyone on the staff has nothing but positive to say about it. Drew casually mentioned he played 6 hours of the beta over a weekend.

Yeah, that's the main reason I think Drew likes it. (I haven't heard the latest Bombcast though.)

 

[yami4ct]

I'm absolutely shocked at how much story is locked behind weird, almost unmarked, side missions in Xenoblade X. There are whole races and storylines done up on the side that are way more interesting than the stuff in the main game. The only reason you'd find some of that stuff is if you stumbled on it. It's kind of a weird choice.

I think it's the best Souls game other than DS1 and is certainly better than the travesty that was DS2. Fantastic experience start to finish, with some remarkable boss fights and some very clever combat changes. It loses out on not feeling new, but nothing could really recapture that.

I mean, Splatoon kind of had that happen too though

 

[Antiwhippy]

And splatoon made it pretty high up to the top 10.

 

[yami4ct]

I liked the Overwatch beta way more than I expected, but man Splatoon is something special. Overwatch is a greatly improved and updated TF2, whereas Splatoon felt unique. Part of the reason I'm not buying Overwatch is I'd much rather play Splatoon.

Man. I should play more Splatoon. Maybe I'll put time in after wrapping with Xenoblade.
