Vinny raging over the latest VinnyVania was hilarious. Alex's reaction was even better lol

I lost my shit when the hoverboard knight appeared. And again when I noticed he was fapping.

Episode 7 was just like Star Trek 09 for me this endlessly dull sit with characters I understood but didn't ever care about. I left both movies thinking like these are probably good, but I also never want to be subjected to them again.

JJ Abrahms directs like Floyd Mayweather fights. Incredibly effective but dull and safe.

I think the riskiest thing he ever did was make Philip Seymour Hoffman the villain of MI3, which did actually pay off very well.

ok now i'm sad

Romscout has probably played thousands of hours of SoTN at this point.

I hope there's another blind Zelda OoT run. Between the memorization and echolocation, it was a very interesting watch.

Yeah, I know. Never been a follower though, only time I watch speed running is when A/SDGQ happens. Man, donated a bunch watching this, such an entertaining run. The best.

Same. GDQ is always fun and when I start thinking they'll run out of games or gimmicks to keep it interesting, they end up surprising me.

Romscout is great whenever he does a run. I want to say he set a SoTN record during a past broadcast. And if you're going to choose a game to play and watch over and over, SoTN is one of the best.

They should make a new Syphon Filter one day.

Gundam Breaker just came in the mail

Thanks Vice.com's Austin Walker

Syphon Filter was the shit back in the day

So much fun

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Haha that video is something else.

Nintendo kinda makes a bunch of weird....video shit these days? I went into the e-shop for some reason and there is a video called the "Cat Mario Show". And it's literally a cat mario puppet and a cat peach puppet who talk to each other in a high pitched voice. And they talked about Yokai-Watch I think? I don't know if any of this is real, I don't take drugs but I imagine this is what happens when you do.

Of course it is on Youtube

I mean, OBVIOUSLY this is for kids and not cynical assholes like me but still....they do a bunch of this stuff.

Let's take a moment to appreciate the dope ass theme.

 

[MassiveNights]

Not sure why there are so many dislikes on the Nintendo video, it seems pretty mild by children's tv standards.

Instead of Days Gone, I would've loved had Bend rebooted Syphon Filter for PS4. But after six games across PS1, PS2, and PSP, I understand taking a break. Although with the dearth of spy games, it could've stood out in the market.

Manchildren can't deal with Nintendo trying to appeal to childrenchildren.

Not only that but it had dynamic music. You can hear it in the demo derby, but the music would transition to a combat theme the instant you were seen, to when you're shooting, to when you're not in combat but theres enemies near by.

So good

 

[Johndoey]

Man I want to be excited for Days Gone but they gave me nothing to hold on to with that demo. The flowing horde is cool visually but I need more. With that said Bend's got a decent track record and I know it's still early.

 

[Twin Tails]

No video people in West.
No people in East.
Time to rewatch Mario Party.

Naw, I think it's time for my Backflips 'n Bioforge rewatch.

I'm open to what it's trying to do. Hearing it as jumping on your bike, going out and hunting for supplies for your camp is an intriguing concept not conveyed in the videos. Really, all I want to do is ride around on a motorcycle. I want a Kino's Journey game. Driving my talking motorcycle to explore the world.

 

[derFeef]

Those Rhytm Heaven games... hngh. Makes me almost go buy a 3DS.

 

[jaina]

$80 2DS. the alternative would be a Wii / Wii U for Rhythm Heaven Fever.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Those Rhytm Heaven games... hngh. Makes me almost go buy a 3DS.

Like I said before, 2DSs are really affordable and would do you the job if you don't want to make the full commitment to a 3DS.

FWIW the DS Rhythm Heaven is also super good and it's like 2 bucks at Gamestop.

 

[Human Trashcan]

lol demo derby

"isn't Manchester a soccer league?"

"Yes"

Can't tell if Jeff was just playing along or not

 

[derFeef]

You know... maybe. The screen confusion and the charger not included makes the new 3DS XL a bit unappealing.

 

[Tunesmith]

Is this his Sims 3 angle that Drew was talking about in the Demo Derby?

At 1:32

[Human Trashcan]

Woooow this wrestling game running at like 500% speed is pretty amazing

 

[Data West]

Wutang vs Shaolin is the worst fighting game I've ever played like god damn.
The game is more sluggish than Heavy Nova on the Genesis.
The moves and inputs are completely unreliable, you input the command and sometimes it goes through. Sometimes it doesn't! Sometimes enemy frames get priority... Sometimes they don't!

god damn it's fucking awful. Like bad bad.

Do you perhaps have a plan to go back in time and destroy it?

 

[petethepanda]

Really digging the movie discussion during the Lego TFA quicklook. Wish they had movie talk more often.

I was the exact right age for Donnie Darko to be the ultimate Moody High School Movie.

Jeff knows less about the great american sport than Dan does I think.

A new episode of the Untitled Giant Bomb Movie Podcast is just waiting to be recorded.

They made a bunch of them but I don't think the later ones sold well. Some of the PSP ones are supposed to be good though.

Totally. Kids on YouTube is serious business, Nintendo are smart to go for it.

I found a video on YouTube the other day that had 1.4bn views that I had no idea existed.

GBest can't QL ZTD until Vinny finishes 999 and VLR. Maybe Drew and Dan will do it.

That is a shame cause the look of the game is pretty cool.

let it go.

 

[xxracerxx]

Watching some of the Persona Endurance Run and my god they just mentioned it was 2009. I forgot how long ago this was recorded.

 

[tonka]

does anyone have a link to the footage of Jeff doing a 360 the wrong way in Ridge Racer 6/7?

 

[Lijik]

im with Dan on glover - dont care for the game much but i love that the concept exists and is just out there in the world
