I found the controls in Brothers actually a little too intuitive and it made all the puzzles seem rote and simplistic. Makes me wonder if maybe Starbreeze was between a rock and a hard place trying to tune the puzzles so most people could solve them and leaned towards the easy side because of all the work they put into visuals and story. I thought the story was good (especially the) but nothing necessarily that special. It was just cool to see a story that had its pivotal moment beepilogue.completely mechanics driven
No problem its a good reason so that is fine.As a GB moderator, I hate making my first post on NeoGAF a promotional one, but I'll compromise on my ethics for the good cause of helping sick kids.
This weekend (Nov 2) is Extra Life, and we're putting together a hub for all of the streams from GB members. You can find it at http://www.explosiveruns.com/. Come help us raise money.
I just finished Gone Home, and went back to read Patrick's review.
He mentions a "holy shit" moment that happens early in the game, but I can't recall anything of that nature.
Does anyone know what he's referring to?
Also the game was amazing.
One of the secret passageways I guess?It's the jump scare
There is, for lack of a better phrase, a holy shit moment early on in the game, and it acts as though nothing's happened. The house is still there, youre still alone, and it's time to move on.
Vinny finished Demon's SoulsJeff's Tumblr gets weird when ever he responds to questions about his personal life.
Also, I wonder if Vinny will consider a load our last souls for Demon's Souls when they finish up Dark Souls. Probably won't happen, but that would be fun to watch from the start of the game. Actually don't know if he played much of it or finished it or what.

Jeff Gerstmann - 1 part take-home-to-your-mother gentleman, and 1 part anal sex rapper.
I nearly spit my drink as I read that as "1 part anal sex raper".
There's no way to listen to Jeff's previously broadcast Mixlr stuff, right?

I just re-subscribed for the first time since August, what's the best premium content I've missed out on?

Probably Load Our Last Souls and Pathfinder.

One would assume that they're doing live quick looks of Battlefield 4 and Assassin's Creed IV today, right?

aren't they waiting to do next gen versions?
No Batman, AC4, or BF4 reviews?
I hope this is a sign that GB is dumping reviews entirely.

I can't help but feel like there may not be a Giant Bomb, at least as we know it, in a year. It just seems those guys are losing interest, especially Jeff. I don't blame them, it was a rough year for them. It'll be interesting to see what happens after all the craziness of the next-gen launches dies down. Or maybe I'm just crazy and completely off-base.
Batman has already been reviewed.
Got a 3/5
This is why I hope they dump reviews and the pursuit of cramming their way through new releases in order to make imaginary deadlines. The most enjoyable stuff they do is with stuff like Halo, Dark Souls, and now Pathfinder.
Pretty sure Jeff is reviewing BF4, but as far as I know he only started playing it yesterday. At least he mentioned installing it on his PC on Twitter.
Vinny finished Demon's Souls
Well, shit.
