Maybe I should watch these. But I don't want to rent/buy these films.
I actively try to avoid trailers so I hadnt seen anything since the teaser. But gah damn that one was guud. 😬

Kong's director is or is in talks to be the Metal Gear Solid movie director. And dude surprisingly knows his games. He cited Shadow of the Colossus as an inspiration for the movie.
First time I read this I thought you said he took Shadow of the Colossus as inspiration for an MGS film and was very confused. 😅
Making a not terrible Metal Gear Solid film will be extremely difficult.
Don't worry they're just getting settled
It seems impossible to fit all of that into a movie. It needs like a miniseries
They really need to put all the fanart and weird stuff back up. I hope they didn't have to throw it away or something.
From what I've seen they don't throw anything away.

One of the best features running currently though.

I finished the trial. I could see myself playing it at a heavily discounted price or Redboxing it.
The MP is fun but moving around is janky as hell.

They're like $6 to rent on Amazon.com, I think it's well worth it.

45min into this ME video and man.......this looks awful. Like WTF Bioware. Is this bad writing/voice direction/voice acting/animation or all of the above?
Fuck!
Fuck!
I like how Brad flips as soon as Jeff calls out the faces lol.
Rorie; chat asking if you've seen any wonkiness with animation
Brad; watch the stream and see for yourself?
Jeff; man these faces
Brad; yeahhhhhh they're not great
Brad was just telling chat to keep watching....no flip. No FLIP!
Chat is the thing I feel like Rorie is the only one who cares about it. I really respect his gumption for being the audience surrogate, but the other guys are clearly not into fielding a bunch of granular audience questions. That goes for things like UPF too
Yeah, he sometimes goes overboard throwing questions at them (especially when he interrupts someone else to do it), but I'm glad he tries. There isn't much point of a livestream if you don't interact with the audience at all. You might as well just throw up a prerecorded video and call it live.
I'm sure the crew gets way more mileage out of UPF views after it airs than the live concurrents. UPF might be a livestream, but that's only a bullet point so they can create more content for the site. If there was a rock solid idea for revamping UPF without it being live, I'm sure theyd be all ears.

I'm slowly realizing Titanfall 2 is the only EA game I cared about in years. After Mirror's Edge 2 and how Mass Effect is turning out, I don't know how to feel about their Skate 4 #skate4.
I have found it kind of funny how limited GB's audience interaction in general is considering the subscription nature of the site. There seems to be a very clear separation versus other personality-driven sites with paying audiences that have popped up.
Not that I really care one way or the other as I'm never in chat myself, just kind of feels like they've increasingly kept user interaction at arm's length since the whiskey days (although maybe starting to roll back a bit now that there are call in shows).
In all honesty, it's one of my favourite aspects of the site. I'm there to watch them. The audience interaction is always at it's best when its curated (emails, jar time). Once you get into just fielding questions, such as PAX Panels or taking calls, the content turns rough real quick.
I happen to agree. just kind of struck me how Rorie is the lone conduit typically, haha.

Watched the Wildlands QL. Shame about the network issues in the office. Co-op stream would have been great.
That was the last genuinely good Bioware game. Just be prepared that no DA after it compares.

Huh, I never thought of this way but it's true.
Rorie, in 0-AD, is now Secret Best Duder.
not shields and not bows and brad offered it as a defence the first time and honestly... as someone who's played a lot of BoTW over the last two weeks... throwing shit is too fucking slow
Not really. Brad was putting on a brave face and saying lots of "well that's just Mass Effect for you" whenever Jeff criticised something, but it's clear both of them seem very underwhelmed by it so far.
It did.
He's just impersonating Dan.
But really, no problem for me, I do like Rorie, hopefully he is more often on the couch now.
I'm wondering what the gell is going on at EA.
Remember Mirror's Edge? It was a huge announcement of a passion project. Its release? Nothing. It just came out like that.
Mass Effect? One of the tent pole IPs in EA's portfolio? Super odd marketing strategy and the game seems janky and soulless.
What happened? Battlefield and FIFA Ultimate Team Booster Packs is all EA is nowadays or what.
Then when a partner makes a decent game like Titanfall 2, it just gets shitted out right next to one of their few tentpoles and a Call of Duty.
