Neat. Seeing that reminded me that it's coming to PS4 at some point (in Q2) this year. Highly doubt it'll support PSVR, though.

I played quite a bit if it on Xbone and it's even great in console. I might re-buy it on PS4 though if it gets good Pro support.

Nice.

Will see if Drew gets any troll advice.

i will laugh so hard if they discover aliens in the first episode.

I don't think this'll be a continuous thing tho. Playdate means something new "each" week, right?
Also is this the first Rorie+Drew only video? Is Rorie the new Dan?

Playdate can be continuous cuz the GBEast guys do that depending on their mood. They beat a few games that way. I'm guessing they'll see if Elite is good enough for being a long term feature depending on how it goes.

if valve made another half-life, playtesting would ensure that it was a series of hallways with cutscenes attached

maybe one of the hallways would have a corner in it

We all know this all can only lead to one thing tho.
You know, that space game-which-must-not-be-named. The new CITIZEN Kane of video games.
 
I've understood the dislike Portal 2 got. The story was fantastic and it had 2nd best VO last gen after Arkham Aslyum. Yeah ok, the story hasn't the same pure gameplay like the first one did but the co-op has that in spades.

Yup. The VO's were awesome. Every once and a while, I listen to the vocal clips from this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL11E8D3EF1B15FCB3

"I'm pretty sure photons are a fake Star Trek word...I don't think photons actually exist"

ho boy...

just how bad did that discussion about Schrodinger's cat get on that other video...?
 
The Elite stream will be interesting. As someone who has absolutely fallen in love with the game and has been playing since release, my guess is people will HATE it.

No Man's Sky? :p

I know I know, Star Citizen

No, no, not No Man's Sky I dropped some subtle...oh you!

"just how bad did that discussion about Schrodinger's cat get on that other video...?

It reaches the "just look it up" stage pretty soon.

The Elite stream will be interesting. As someone who has absolutely fallen in love with the game and has been playing since release, my guess is people will HATE it.

The stream might get me to buy that thing, because I'm still not sure what it is.

Did you see what happened to Driveclub -> Driveclub VR. Yeah, it is unlikely.

Hah! I actually enjoyed Driveclub VR*. But, I think are more apt comparison could be Eve: Valkyrie, which is by all accounts is on par, for the most part, with its PC counterparts.

*To be fair, I did get it for free from Target due to a B2G1 sale, which is how I also got the original Driveclub in 2014.

Not really. Elite is probably gonna be a 60fps game anyways on PS4, where Driveclub they had to double the FPS. I think there's a real chance here.

a swat team (literally never explained why) swarmed Aya's wedding ceremony and killed her and her fiance (Kyle from PE2). Eve reached out and magically took over her body and killed the swat team (even though she's a 12 year old who has never fired a gun). Eve's soul inhabiting Aya's body destroyed Aya's soul, splitting it into fragments creating time traveling monsters known as twisted. this also caused several people attending the wedding to become human-twisted like hybrids know as "high ones" for some reason. the twisted eventually cause the destruction of Manhattan and the only way to prevent this is to go back in time and permanently kill Aya as Eve in Aya's body

read The Dark Id's let's play sometime, this is only part of this game's incomprehensible plot
also this is crazy. I have never checked out the Paradise Eve games. Are they still worth checking out today?

I watched the Fire Emblem phone video again and I have to say including the "well shit, I got something completely useless." part of all those games in the promotional video is a pretty Nintendo move.

Portal 2 was awesome. Loved it more than the first one.

Same, I found 2 was head and shoulders above the first. I wasn't huge on some of the story choices in terms of the implications on the greater universe (they leaned into the silliness a bit too hard for my liking), but still loved nearly every bit. One of my favourite ever co-op experiences, too.

Portal 2 was a great game but playing the first Portal without knowing what it was was an experience that can't be matched. Portal was this "What's this doing in my Half-Life/Team Fortress box?" weird pack-in game when I bought the Orange Box.

I had this exact experience. Played Portal 1 without knowing anything about it and was floored by it. I picked up Orange Box at launch for the other games originally. But I still prefer Portal 2 more for its world building and humor.

I'd say yes. I loved PE1 at the time but I don't know how well it's aged, particularly the writing. It's still a very unique (horror JRPG set in NYC where you play as a female cop) and interesting game. Superb soundtrack too. PE2 is more of a Resident Evil type game. It never clicked with me like the first one did but it has its fans.

PE1 Aya is totally a Cool Lady

"A cat can't be alive and dead"
This is why Schroedinger failed. He made it too relatable.

"I like to learn about things I don't know about
No I didn't click on any other links on Wikipedia, I figured I just ask you during this Contra stream"

This is my experience with Super Mario Galaxy and the sequel. Way less extreme, but damn, they put Mario in Space and it was great! Was not expecting much after Sunshine too.

SMG2 is great too but the first game blew my mind

I hated Parasite Eve. Got it day one cuz it was a Squaresoft joint and played and beat the first one. I used to beat every game I bought when I was younger. Didn't enjoy it. Didn't bother with the sequel. Never understood why it's so beloved.
