That stream was pretty great. First Spelunkin' I've watched live. Dave Lang needs to be in more Giant Bomb stuff. The TNT where he was talking about the games he developed was pretty awesome.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
For a second I thought he was the guy who wanted to do that John Drake tracker, too. Then things would be getting ridiculous, ha.
they were joking, but you should be ashamed
you know what's crazy? this is an example of JEFF telling DREW about a crazy weekend activity he took part in
it's like opposite day

My problem with "Unfinished" is that they say this could include preview coverage.
Jeff sometimes gets asked about upcoming Quick Looks on tumblr and he often talks about ridiculous embargos. They have the full finished version of a game on hand, but they won't shoot a QL before the publisher allows for more than 5 minutes or whatever.
If they shoot those videos now, they'll be doing "Unfinished" videos on games that are actually totally finished.

To be fair they clarified that it was mostly how Steam sorted those games into new releases. And calling them Unfinished does sort it on their end.
Having a new feature called Unfinished doesn't nullifies the embargo. They will still avoid games that are limited to 5 min of footage pre-release.
What that changes now is that they will be able to do actual preview coverage. IE when a publisher comes in 2-3 months before a game is a out with a preview build of the game (a preview build is not the final version of the game) to show it off.
In the past they would just skip that because there was not much reason to show it off. Now they actually have a vehicle for that stuff.

Not going to lie but when Dave Lang talked about active frame and hit boxes, it makes me feel like he has knowledge of fighters. I wonder what his favorite fighting game is.

A remake would be too risky, I just want Windjammers available on PC/PS4 or something so it can be played drunk alongside Samurai Gunn and Nidhogg.
What?? Of course he does.
Worth it.
His studio worked on Divekick, Street Fighter 3 Online Edition, Marvel vs Capcom Origins, and Darkstalkers resurrection.
Really is. The Dark Lord's insight is fantastic
Wise move.

Vinny's trolling in that first ep is almost making me to say fuck it and do another sub but I have to remain strong.
That subtle mix of trolling and helpful information. Glorious
Oh no. It's a pretty boring game to watch IMO.
It really is. We'll probably see some trading cards or whatevs after they talk about the game for a bit.

As someone who hasn't played Demon Souls, I am right there with Brad on trying to decipher when he's helping or bullshitting, and the chat is equally full of people trolling so I never had any idea what to expect lol.

He just started Viva Pinata as well, so it's gonna be a pretty long segment...
I love Viva Pinata though.

So typical Brad segment? He needs to steal Drew's idea of searching Desura for the most bizarre shit.
Vinny is too good.

I am a bit behind, so I don't know if they already found out, but that is a Dublin accent trying to sound kiddy. However, is seems a bit off...
Did a small bit of checking on Linkedin (http://uk.linkedin.com/in/louridge) and a woman doing the voice grew up Ireland, studied in Dublin, but has worked in England for the past few years.
So, it is mock kiddy Dubliner with UK hints!
