[SatelliteOfLove]

I do like and appreciate UPF, but with such an avalanche of monster games lately, to have episodes with obvious dud segments in every other episode is odd. No Zelda hijix, no Horizon hijinx, no Jason-Ass Jason Games (Toukiden 2, Nioh, Nier, some of those anime fighters recently released on steam like Melty, UNIEL, and the like).

Like, i dont know whats holding them up from the AMOUNT of premium videos they can do right now at West, but the judgement can be better hopefully.

Hey some of us are able to control ourselves just fine.

Poop, I was hoping to wait out my connection issues watching them have connection issues

 

[def sim]

The Splatoon stream is on their YouTube channel.

 

[Twin Tails]

This one was driving Vinny crazy.

 

[alr1ght]

I'm watching the first F&F with F&Fs and Dan is asking questions like he's four years old.

I mean, he's been doing that on podcasts since he's joined the site. No reason to stop now.

if they had just revisited bradth of the wild with two duders sitting over his shoulder that might've been okay

oh right brad streamed breadth of the wild for pax

how was that stream? I haven't seen it

i would describe it as 'chill'

brad is a pretty good solo streamer imho

 

[Mr. F]

Having this be my first real exposure to Splatoon, I'm super glad Alex went to bat so hard for its music during GOTY a couple years back. It's dope.

 

[Hindl]

Pretty good. Relaxed but BotW is dope and also has enough diversity to fit well with Brad

Yeah man

It's amazing

That GBEAST playdate art.

 

[PushTheButtonMax]

one of their better improv segments, though I was a bit dubious when Vinny just started into it. But Alex picking up the ball and running with it saved the bit.

Alex is low-key my fave pinch-hitter.

(I don't know what a pinch-hitter is but I assume it's good)

Yeah Alex was insanely good in that. And even Dan jumping in with the "I tried it once and I'm fine!" or whatever it was was hilarious.

 

[Infinite Justice]

As said before this whole east vs west "beef" that will perpetuate on here is fucking dumb and will continue to be fucking dumb until its legitimately different teams.

They are under the same banner and if you feel you like you are liking one "side" then fine but don't act the other side is such a fucking dumpster fire in the same breath when it really isn't.

Yep.

Dan's part and beyond was fucking gold.

Booyah Base (shopping music)

Seeing those vocals performed is kind of nuts. That's rad as hell.

Yesss. Gusher Gauntlet was the one they listened to during goty, such an amazing manic mess of sounds.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

fast five is a very good movie

 

[Jintor]

it's pretty interesting watching dan and alex play splatoon and comparing their playstyles. dan just isn't great but he's having fun anyway! alex was stumbling for a bit but once he got in the grove he was flicking around wiht precision.

vinny being down on the game is hashing my vibe

 

[hamchan]

I'm fine with separating West v East.

One side is clearly weaker than the other and there's no point putting your head in the sand and pretending the situation isn't what it is just because the output has been good thanks to East.

Jeff is being a good boss by identifying that weakness on one side and hiring more people for West. Just imagine when both West and East are firing at full strength and how great that'll be.

 

[Mr. F]

I think the separation is also easy to default to because there is virtually no crossover or collaborative content between the two offices. If there was more all-staff features it would be easier to blur the lines, I think.

[Tubobutts]

Is the x dimension Waypoint?

 

[Antiwhippy]

Thing is that to me it's all just giantbomb content.

So west getting staffed up and stronger means that we get more giantbomb content.

C'est la vie.

 

[p2535748]

Just finished the Fast Five Film and 40's. Overall, really good but, and I'm sure this isn't a popular opinion, I thought Vinny was a little annoying in the final sequence. He kept expressing incredulity and ignoring things that were explained minutes earlier, or in one case something that literally happened ten seconds earlier.

Not a huge deal, it was just the first bit of annoyance I've had with the series. Still hugely enjoyable. The ghost stuff and wildlands references pretty much made me laugh every time.

Waypoint is the Sex Dimension.

They should definitely keep doing film and 40s after they finish this series. Maybe not every week, but a couple times a month would be awesome. It's been my favorite thing they've done in a very long time.

Was it Dan or Drew who said they bought the Bond 50th Anniversary collection and wanted to go through them all? That's half a year of content right there.

 

[Han Seoul-Oh]

That was Dan who said that, but if I remember correctly, he kept saying he never started watching them because the first few where do slow.

He was also doing it with his fiancee iirc

I tried to do the whole Bond movie marathon thing. I wanted to stop before I even got through all of Sean Connery.

I'm imagining the silly questions he'll be asking.

Pretty much. Most of the Bond movies are terrible.

...I watched them all anyway.

Watching Brad dismantle a PS4 controller is painful.

So why aren't they just using guns?
I could kill a Dementor with my wrestling moves.
Is Hogwarts sovereign?
I'd be one of the cool kids, Gryffindaris.

Spoiler

Dan is a Hufflepuff though and through.

I would kill for a Horcrux.
Russia exists in Harry Potter world?
Where's the US school? I bet it's so much cooler.

Man, remember when giantbomb wasn't about the memes.

But about integrity?

I full well imagine that if this weird meme culture thing was around earlier in Giant Bomb's life, they would've been a meme making machine. Especially Ryan Davis.
