What the heck, there are people remaking that cancelled Star Wars Battlefront 3 game. http://www.gamespot.com/articles/an-update-on-star-wars-battlefront-3-fan-remake-an/1100-6439381/
Will this not get shutdown?

Am I crazy or does Mirror's Edge Catalyst look way, way slower than Mirror's Edge? Like her full speed doesn't even seem that much faster than walking.
Also combat looks fucking terrible.

I'm glad that set up paid off. The soldier fountain.
Soldier 76 got shot up but she's more interested in engaging with her chat than helping.

I watched a bit of the Kinda Funny video with Jeff in it where they talked about Kinda Funny following in the footsteps of GB and Rooster Teeth. It made me realize I know almost nothing about Rooster Teeth (outside of RvB), but I guess they have a similar model to GB premium.
What are the guys at Rooster Teeth known for currently? Don't they have multiple websites or something? (I think achievement hunter is them as well, maybe). I imagine that GB is known to most people for quicklooks and the bombcast, but I can't honestly name one thing that RT does, but they're obviously very popular. I wonder how much cross over there is between GB and RT fans.

Rooster Teeth is like if everything Giant Bomb did was terrible.
So they haven't changed since the RvB days? Good to know.
They became popular from that Red vs Blue Halo show thing, now they're popular for let's plays and another cartoon thing.
Oh, and they also crowdfunded an absolutely terrible movie. Laser Team or something like that.

They were much better then, even. Since they're Austin-based I've tried to find something to like in Rooster Teeth but I just can't. Insufferable personalities. If you recall they were the ones criticizing Jeff's Fallout 4 review whilst adorning pip boys and surrounded with Bethesda-provided Fallout swag.
Yep!
*full disclosure i work for rooster teeth*
i think the thing we're most known for these days is achievement hunter, and yeah we have a bunch of different branches similar to the old whiskey media days at gb.
as far as GB/RT fan crossover, i'm not sure how much there is. our demographics skew a little younger, but im sure there's at least *some* overlap. we do have a division called FunHaus who are a little more GB-like and target an older audience
I know that's them. I never even liked RvB. I admired their effort to use these games to make films, but the writing was always insufferable.
If I remember the survey results correctly their audience was mainly late 20s to early 30s.

I think I'm going to make the Overwatch dive this weekend. Is there a compelling reason for me to get the $60 version as opposed to the $40 one?
Meh, they can do whatever they want in the end.
I personally feel between GB, SBF, GAF and who I follow on Twitter I get a pretty well rounded view of all kinds of games. So I am good.
Do you want the bonus skins and items for other Blizzard games? If the answer is yes then get the $60 version. Otherwise go for the cheap one.

Unless you care about the skins or the additional content for other Blizzard games then nope.
unless you want some hot skins and a warcraft pet, then no
I'd say Tracer for HOTS is probably the best bonus you get. Given you play HOTS of course. I do so getting her with the console version of Overwatch was nice.

The longer I go without buying Overwatch the more I feel kind of put off by everything related to Overwatch. And after the beta I thought I was buying that game day one. It's weird.
Don't be creepy.
Do you like any of the extra costumes enough to pay $20 to get them? Do you want a bunch of little things for Blizzard's other games?
Actually, if you play HOTS, it's a pretty good option since the Tracer character for that game is $10 on its own.

Ah ok. I don't play any other Blizzard games, so I'll just get the cheaper one.

Just went to roosterteeth.com and maannn... that website is all over the place! They're doing a drama show, they have cartoons, let's plays, merchandise out the ass! There's a PAX but just for RT stuff coming up also (I think). It's like a cross over between Netflix, Cracked, and twitch.tv, They even throw in a bit of Buzzfeed with their news section:
That's cool man, I can see why people would enjoy it if they've been following for a while. It's probably not my cup of tea, but they're obviously doing something right if you're having Blizzcon type meet ups...

If people think that GB Q&A sessions are bad then you should check out the RT ones.

Ok I now own Overwatch. If this disappoints I blame you people.
