i'm mostly glad but it must suck if you weren't in on the ground floor getting entire publisher catalogues (that you'd never play) for like $50

like, I'll probably never get a better deal than when THQ was having their going out of business fire sale. no matter how sad the circumstances.

I remember getting some THQ pack in 2010 that had Metro 2033, STALKER, Saints Row 2, all the Red Faction games, and a load of other shit for 50 bucks. And this was only a few months after Metro was released, so it was basically getting Metro at a discount and the entire THQ catalog as a bonus.

What PC compatible controller has the best D-pad for 2D games?

 

[broncobuster]

Those bundles are a joy for when, say, I hear talk of certain games on a podcast and discover I've owned them for years. After Dawn of War talk after E3, I checked my steam library; sure enough I own the first two.

What PC compatible controller has the best D-pad for 2D games?

Wireless? Wii U Pro is all around great with a ridiculous 80 hour battery life. It's Bluetooth but I personally use a cheap mayflash adapter. 8bitdo makes a quality Bluetooth SNES pad.

Wired, buffalo or something to that extent makes an inexpensive well made super famicon USB pad.

 

[Megasoum]

I'd say the V2 of the Xb1 controller or the DS4

Yeah those Dawn of War games were part of the previously mentionned THQ bundles so a lot of people have those lol.

I'm currently using the WiiU one, I seem to accidentally be double tapping the D-Pad and it's causing some movement problems in Axiom.

And a new anime editor awakens.

 

[Jintor]

ahahahahaha

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

 

[Tubobutts]

Oh hey that's the lady gundam that confused me when I was looking at gunpla.
Vinny should be Jenks in Contradiction 2

[Antiwhippy]

And a new anime editor awakens.

Like an allergy, it's something that can leave but forever remain.

 

[ScottSullivan]

Did i miss a tweet somewhere? What happened to dans eye? More lasik surgery?

 

[Salty Catfish]

Did i miss a tweet somewhere? What happened to dans eye? More lasik surgery?

A pretty vicious stye, apparently.

 

[Twin Tails]

This is his new look.

Spoiler

His eye is as fine as it has always been.

Oh hey that's the lady gundam that confused me when I was looking at gunpla.

Now that Giant Bomb employees are appearing in video games, I hope Vinny makes a cameo in the next Contradiction.

uh

I don't think he was born 1984?

 

[LurkerPrime]

I found the perfect gif to encapsulate Austin's final game. All thanks to the Overwatch art thread.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

And a new anime editor awakens.

TMS is the perfect game for someone who thinks Persona isn't Japanese enough.

 

[Tubobutts]

uh

I don't think he was born 1984?

Yes he was.

I only know that cause he's the same age as my sister.

 

[Lunar FC]

Pretty good UPF for it being without Jeff. Why was he out of the office?

 

[EdReedFan20]

uh

I don't think he was born 1984?

He was. It's in the wiki. Also, in 2014, he mentioned he was turning 30.

 

[Twin Tails]

He is on road trip.

[Death Metalist]

Yes, he mentioned he's doing some stuff on the bombcast.

I don't know about angels, but it's social anxiety that gives men wings.

'The things that I want' by Max Payne. Taco Bell. Nacho Cheese. Red Vines. That's it.

I had a dream about Taco Bell. I had a Chicken Burrito. But it was alright.

Now I want Max Payne 4.

Guys... I'm just gonna leave this here

Pac-Man Championship Edition DX is damn good.

 

[Strax]

Man, Kojima is really going all in on Iceland for Death Stranding. The environment looks like Iceland, the music in the trailer is from Iceland, he came location scouting and took pictures here and keeps talking about one icelandic writer on twitter.

I hope the game is set here.

 

[Brashnir]

Pretty good UPF for it being without Jeff. Why was he out of the office?

Negotiating the sale of Giant Bomb to Vice.

Pac-Man Championship Edition DX is damn good.

DX is good, but I always preferred the original Pac-Man CE. When it comes to soundtracks, though, DX is on its own level.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Like really, the only thing I don't understand about new dan is the suit.

 

[Brashnir]

Like really, the only thing I don't understand about new dan is the suit.

Being the new leader of NOD is a position that commands respect. He has to dress for the job.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I feel like that position would demand bigger lapels with gold trim.

 

[Brashnir]

I feel like that position would demand bigger lapels with gold trim.

Yeah well, the last game didn't sell too well. They're working on a budget here.

 

[Twin Tails]

I remember watching an episode of that OJ show. Oof.

[Antiwhippy]

Is brad doomed to forever be playing id games on UPF?

 

[Tubobutts]

Is brad doomed to forever be playing id games on UPF?

Yes and it leaves me quaking in my boots. I hope the chat doesn't start to rage about it. Call me a heretic, but I'm pretty Commander keen about it. Hexen.

 

[Brashnir]

Is brad doomed to forever be playing id games on UPF?

hey, it's better than addictionware.

 

[Peru]

Shaving your head is so hard and not worth it.

Had to comment on this.

Takes me 10 minutes, once per week. Easy peasy.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I feel like that would be more drew's UPF jam.

Yes and it leaves me quaking in my boots. I hope the chat doesn't start to rage about it. Call me a heretic, but I'm pretty Commander keen about it. Hexen.

But if he goes too far he'll be approaching enemy territory?

Spoiler

I got nothing.

 

[Jintor]

man i wanna see austin introduce them to a dungeon world or equiv. that fiasco game was so grand

 

[Houndi101]

Watching UPF and Dan's Max Payne 4 cosplay on point

 

[Brashnir]

Yeah, I bought Fiasco based on that podcast. Only played it once so far, but that one time was totally worth it. Game is so good.

Whoa, do Bastion and DOOM's Hayden have the same head?

that's not lockdown.

 

[Backfoggen]

3D-accelerated Quake looks bad. Software renderer for life.

 

[Tubobutts]

I think the next step Dan should take is making his voice deeper/gruffer and then learning Japanese.

 

[Twin Tails]

Revisiting The Witcher 2, been a few years, and Gerald's voice actor improved SO much in 3.

 

[Death Metalist]

Fascinating stuff.

 

[Houndi101]

Five years from now will Dan look like a full blown Metal Gear Solid character? (He's already pretty close)
Also what will his codename be?

 

[Fantastapotamus]

TMS seems like one of those games where I would hastly turn off the TV when somebody walks in my room and say "NONO! It's not what it looks like, I uhhh... was watching porn! Also who are you and what are you doing in my house?!"

And I don't mean that in a bad way

Five years from now will Dan look like a full blown Metal Gear Solid character? (He's already pretty close)
Also what will his codename be?

Just Dan.
Modern day Konami isn't very creative.

I like Gamebomb's version of Dan better

Gaseous Cheese.
