depends, sometimes Jim is sending the same to both.

Didn't realize Jason completely skipped over Street Fighter 3, new hire should be a Third Strike Editor.

A good Pokemon story? Are people playing Pokemon for the story?

It's nice to have it, I certainly appreciate it when it's good. It is an RPG after all.

Nothing the McElroy brothers have ever done has been funny to me. I don't know why they keep getting brought up.
Justin's Nier thing was funny.
Because they're kinda Giant Bomb adjacent and have a similar air of irreverence. Personality driven content with a fondness for things that are dumb. Not difficult to see the similarities.
Except the McElroys are a lot more reliable in terms of delivering content

Catching up on Extra Life, love Jeff crashing the Star Trek pinball game with his sweet jackpot skills.
I'm really tempted to get whatever this pinball collection thing he's playing is.

The original one is fine in size. S model just looks cooler and is a tad smaller. Also no power Brock
Because other people won't talk about them
Do you think the whole earth and all conversation centers around you and what you want to do?
The original is larger and the first version of the controller isn't so good - stiff and clicky shoulder buttons. Otherwise it's fine.
I think the original may be a little quieter than the S, too.

Danny mentioned on Twitch that he's moving to the East Coast to help cut down on cost of living expenses... Interesting.

Didn't he hint at that when he left Gamespot? I wonder if he'll move next to Dan. (I'd assume by moving East, Danny means the NYC area)
Yeah, he said that a long time ago.

Only if you're playing them on PS4 Pro
Not sure I understand where Jason is coming from with his repeated disgust at Street Fighter V. Game launched as a damn mess, and they continued to screw it up as it moved forward, but they've also been fixing a lot of important things about the game as well, and there are no road blocks to simply playing and having fun with it now. If it's paid cosmetics, isn't that just modern video games?

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
who?
Edit: Not meant as an insult, just no idea who you are talking about.
I also just watched it and man, you are right. It looks like a shooting gallery. Move forward until somebody screams "MOAR DEEBEES!", then shoot them. Rinse and repeat. Game looks nice tho.
That's just Gears: shoot, gong, advance, repeat.
I assume Samantha Kalman, indie game dev with no apparent experience, or interest in, moving to games journalism. But hey, don't let that stop you dreaming.

I don't think it's really rational, just Jason things. I doubt he could explain it himself, he's not very good at articulating his thoughts on a good day. Personally I'm disappointed in SF5 but mostly because the overall package is lackluster, the netcode/matchmaking isn't great, and FUCK SURVIVAL MODE. But it doesn't warrant disgust (rootkit business aside).

She played Third Strike excellently on an Extra Life stream and it's an in-joke to throw out predictions when hiring is active.
A lot of people seem to want more from a fighting game. They say it's tutorials and stuff like that, but no one really expects that from Overwatch or Titanfall 2 so I don't really think that's fair. What is missing is sick CoD guitar riffs when you gain a (permanent) rank and blind box skins. Really I think we've been conditioned to need some frilly bullshit to enjoy a truly competitive game, rather than just playing to compete.

How is it that two separate video versions of the podcast go up before the audio? That doesn't seem right.
Yeah, kinda...

Hey check out us mischief making scamps messing with The System, man!
Now check me out hosing down this entire street of pedestrians with a grenade launcher!
Right. Mischievous young hackers sticking it to the man, also murdering cops with 3d printed guns. Like, I wish bigger games would avoid combat when not necessary. There are other ways to make compelling gameplay.
