You should at least wear something nice to a wedding.

 

[TraBuch]

That's not how that expression goes, lol. It's "two feathers of the same bird".

The fuck is wrong with you? Are you an insane person?

 

[stump sock]

someone send me their copy of yakuza ishin

how angry would you be with me if I told you I got it for the equivalent of $18 with free shipping before it was cool

 

[Catvoca]

That's just the tip of the iceberg.

This is the best thing I've ever seen

 

[Hindl]

No it isn't

 

[funkystudent]

Havent gotten that quest yet.

Dude is still just "Walking Erection" to me.

 

[LiK]

Sorry bro, but that's not correct.

 

[robotrock]

sorry

please help me out someone.

I really need this game.

I would be less angry if you had some tips on how to grab it for a similar price right now!

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Birds of a feather flock together

There's a British sitcom called birds of a feather too, based off the expression and the hilarious wordplay of women being called "birds" in British slang.

yeah, you're right. I think I might have confused that with a French expression.

The fuck is wrong with you? Are you an insane person?

Yes, but not for this reason.

I dunno. a lot of japanese stores (that sell online) don't seem to restock games if they run out after the first few months. if you're into importing, time is not your friend.

that said, used (but recent) games go for hilariously cheap prices there so if you know someone who can check around for you, you could probably find a copy for like $10.

 

[robotrock]

oh shit microsoft's e3 conference is on a sunday lol. 2pm PST.

e3 starts even earlier this year

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Dan calling Yakuza 0 Shenmue is going to drive me crazy.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

To be fair, that expression would make way more sense

 

[TraBuch]

Dan calling Yakuza 0 Shenmue is going to drive me crazy.

I get weirded out by Yakuza fans and Shenmue fans that insist the games are nothing alike. In the end, they're both open games taking place in Japan filled with minigames and things to do besides the main story. Yakuza is a pretty natural progression of what Shenmue did, with some major quality of life improvements.

i don't really have any cool shops around me other than a trader joes. might try searching for it at pax east or something...someone's bound to have it. could totally see it being way overpriced though

Dont listen to them, this is how I've been saying it forever

We're like two peas in a salad

Its peaches and gravy from here on out

I j ust wanted to see the transitions lol... Skipping all the cutscenes cause I can't understrand anything anyway lol.

I recognized the guys from Yakuza 0 and the Orphenage from the beginning of 3 (I only watched the Quicklook).

 

[Blitzrules240]

Dan and Bianca are adorable.

God dammit that was cute as fuck.

 

[robotrock]

I appreciate that. Checked out ebay, can grab a copy of the game used for about $40 which doesn't seem like the worst thing in the world. New copies will be about $55-70

Yeah I'm very excited to eventually play Yakuza 6. I've only seen the cover art but it has Beat Takahashi on it so I'm already in for two copies.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

I don't think Dan had enough jump cuts in his entry video

so, like marriage

what were david faustino and christina applegate like on the set

That seems like a fair observation.

I think the reason they had nothing in common with fans is because the first two Yakuza games were more like a traditional RPG in both exploration and combat. Y3 was where it felt a lot more like Shenmue, imo. Y0 is a progression from the PS3 games so yes, if you started with Y0 then they feel quite similar.

Its like saying Assassins Creed is like Red Dead Redemption because they are both open world and let you ride horses.


IMO, comparing something to Shenmue is a bit of a insult unless its "what if Shenmue was good"

 

[Tubobutts]

What if Shenmue was good and had bikini girls?

 

[AuthenticM]

Yakuza is what Shenmue wanted and tried to be.

 

[stump sock]

Probably wouldn't have had to beg suckers for pocket change.

 

[robotrock]

Does Shenmue actually try to be as ridiculous as something like Yakuza is at times?

 

[MadLaughter]

When the Bombcast started talking about making a Call of Duty game that was kind of a MP platform that they would support year after year Overwatch/Rainbow Six Siege style, I literally thought in my head of the name "Black Ops Forever." Few minutes later, Jeff busts out the same thing.

GET ON IT, TREYARCH

 

[justjim89]

I wonder if Jeff or Brad went to the Prey preview event, lots of coverage coming out for it. With Brad being the System Shock guy, seems like Prey would be right up his alley, that game looks rad.

Wasn't there a video where they took a look at the demo for the System Shock remake? Can't find it on the site.

It did have a gollum-creature that lived on roofs and eats boat tickets.

and a teenage boy with an unhealthy obsession with finding sailors.

How many times have they had the "make a seperate Call of Duty Multiplayer and Zombies games" conversation on the bombcast?

Their Call of Duty conversations are always super boring/repetitive and I'm someone who actually plays those games.

Yeah but would COD be super repetitive/ boring if they went BACK TO WORLD WAR 2?!
