Giant Bomb #24 | In the beginning...

Your phrasing makes it sound like "People who played shouldn't get a word in about this video of three guys playing it" is all.
That you're very judgemental and call people names because they don't already know things that you apparently think they should and use that as a barometer of their worthiness. You can not like Dan but to say the things you've been saying in this thread about him makes you seem quite petty and rude.

Oh I'm very petty and rude towards people who deserve it.
One day I'll be home in time to watch these. One day. I can't stand livestreams on mobile.

Nono, not that. When the video first comes out, the conversation of the topic usually turns towards what's going on in the video, IE the whole fireball thing. Once the "newness" of the episode wears off, people start discussing the game itself more.

He said a payday loan is dumb. Which it is. He never said anything about the people who are forced, for a variety of reasons, to use the service. Are you actually saying that payday loans are not dumb?
He then said 'that's no good' when they said how it is predatory and harmful to people. You mischaracterized him because you don't like him. Feel free to go back and listen to it as I just did. Should be enlightening. I won't hold my breath.
Your last sentence spells out you just don't like him, know much about him, and/or care to which is fine but you really shouldn't offer up a narrow and wrong view of the person. You do realize he works for a video game coverage website and that's why the majority of things he's talked about on there might be regarding video games?
Have you ever listened to Danswers? How did Dan find his way on to an ABC journalist's podcast? How has he written novels, a self-help book and is currently writing another? How does he have many friends, I'm gonna guess many of which you like and respect, if he's just this bumbling fool who is ignorant of everything? Or maybe, just maybe, there's a lot more to a person than the entertainment version that he intentionally and knowingly plays up and in to. You aren't completely self-made in this world without being intelligent.
I couldn't give less of a fuck if you find Dan's presence on Giant Bomb bad or if it prevents you from enjoying the content but I really wish people could help themselves from pushing super slanted versions of the person just to fit what they perceive.
He mischaracterized and quoted him too multiple times which is pretty lame. There's not even a way to misinterpret what Dan said either.
I'm sure there are much worse people out there that deserve your petty rudeness.

Jeez, the shooting animation is kind of blinding
Same, it's quite good.
Yes, that's a bad person that deserves rudeness. Not a man that asked what a payday loan was in the downtime during a Shenmue playthrough.
On topic: Maps that overlay the entire screen need to make a comeback!

Hearing it's only like 100$ or so to buy the Taco Bell menu in it's entirety is tempting me to just do it.
I am so easily influenced.

Missed the beginning of UPF. Extra traffic today due to a car dangling from a parking structure (???).

There are 10 of them here!
Interesting... Do we know if they use the same menu and ingredients as the american chain?
Alright.

I love Meteos, but a new version would need to change some core aspects of it. The original was broken in that you could just scribble across the bottom and win 100% of the time.

It looks like our menu is a lot smaller than the US one after having a quick look on both websites.

is anyone running into streaming problems? like it buffers for a minute then it plays for a second then buffers again. Been like this for a week and I can go between two internet connections. Utterly pathetic.
EDIT: Fuck this, guess I'm watching the archive. Everything else seems fine.

Haven't had that lately, but I've certainly had weeks where I experience this for streams and archived video. Never had a fix, it just stopped happening eventually.

It sometimes happens to me and I scrub back like 7 seconds or more. It works fine then.
Same here, happens to me sometimes.
I had it earlier on this stream but now it's fine.
