I don't think that's a fair comparison because Pokemon GO seems like a pure distillation of the Pokemon idea (exploring the world and catching pokemon), even if it is a dressed up Ingress

Honestly they probably will if it's still this disruptive when us school starts again. Except it'll be in high schools because not as many elementary school kiddos will have phones
I don't know what to think about PokéGo. But when the fad passes, it's going to go like the Woods.
I remember seeing that. Watching the devs body some new players was awful.

I haven't either, but I know it's because of the glut of bad to terrible games that they've been rattling off quick looks for in the past several weeks:
Mighty No. 9
Trials of the Blood Dragon
Umbrella Corps
Lego Star Wars
Song of the Deep
Ghostbusters
Videoball
and also the lack of big hype releases after Uncharted, Doom, and Overwatch.
Yup, but all of these gb west quick looks have been super boring. Gbeast would get the shitty games often, but atleast they were still enjoyable.
I dunno, I've always felt like quick looks of bad games were among the more entertaining quick looks, I'm just not interested in watching them. Hell, Demo Derby might be my favorite feature on GB and I haven't bothered to watch the new one and I'm not really feeling the urge. The only thing I've watched are Ryan and Brad's Deadly Premonition videos.
I hate to say it, but I think it's Dan. It's like I need to take a break and recharge.

I think they're just tired from E3, and everyone winding down from their vacations. They don't even have the podcast set up properly(thus the bad mic job) so I think it's a matter of just getting everything in check.

Remember when they had Nicole fucking Kidman for Brain Age? I cannot even imagine how much they had to pay her. I don't think I had ever seen her in a commercial before.
I dunno, maybe. I've been seeing a lot of people saying GB's been better than it's ever been before and all I can think is "...Really?"

Doom and Quake? seems risky
Didn't even think that when Austin was around.

As long as one of the predictions is picked, I will be satisfied.
Even if it continues to not be Youtuber's Life?

For a second I thought you meant Mankind Divided -- but for Deus Ex GO I don't mind the EX since it's a mobile game.

It was a bizarre experience at my elementary school, during breaks every kid would run out into the hall and play the card game. My friends and I were too cool for that though, we would draw wrestlers, cut them out, and play with them like action figures, we were cool dudes.
Being a kid was really fun.

Millennials born in the 80s are the cool ones, the ones born in the 90s are the bad ones and their stuff needs to be banned.

Both of them are EX QL.
Oh damn, I didn't see the bottom one. I'm not as low on EXs as some other folks around here but yeah, I wish they had DXMD on their own.

Wow I can't believe GB turned into a site about shilling for developers
PewDiePie got to them
why do you think Austin left? he couldn't handle the corruption
Nah, Austin knew they weren't getting corrupted enough. Making chump youtube money when Austin wanted to sell out for the big bucks

My 2nd favorite Rorie moment after the recipe book is his reduced fat anger.
Videoball looks cool, not something i'll get any time soon though.
I want a new HitDan

I think they also need a long form let's play to break up the usual quick look grind. I love Demo Derby and Game Tapes (they need more of those too), but MGScanlon really did keep me going back time and again.
They could play Overwatch on a weekly but I don't know how long that game's legs will last.
The only multiplayer games I can think of that offer the depth that can last months are the mobas, but unfortunately only Brad likes those.
The Witcher would be fantastic, but then we're basically in ER territory at that point.
