Making predictions for the Mario Kart 8 Quick Look:
- At some point, someone will say "Yep, this looks like Mario Kart."
- At some point, someone will talk about how your first Mario Kart is your favorite Mario Kart
- No one but Alex will care about Mario Kart 8

This is also another reason why I think Rorie isnt a good on screen personality. Hes made jabs about OSX and IOS on streams before. What is he 12? Does he feel like his personality is connected to windows, so therefore, he has to bash IOS and OSX? Thats what it looks like everytime he brings it up. It shouldnt matter what someone else uses, and hes the only one to ever bring it up

everyone make fun of the obvious mac user
im 50/50 on jeff expressing his distaste for the entire mario cast in the character select screen like in mario golf
He's in good company, then, since the others take stabs at Android all the time when it comes up. And he's usually not the one to bring it up.

Like how the others takes stabs at windows phone and android whenever it's brought up?

- Hate from Jeff
There will be baby character hate from everyone don't you worry. I also expect for them to not have any of the characters or tracks unlocking as Alex is the only one on staff who has played the game. I doubt he's bringing his Wii U.
I want it all. Alex saying that it is some Mario Kart-ass-Mario Kart would be acceptable as well.
- New battle mode considered "a bummer" (I claim bonus points if Jeff says something like "it's like old MK with half of the game ruined")
- 50cc "kinda slow and boring"

-Nobody knows whether [feature] is new to MK8 or is from a past game
-Attempt at recapping past games and their features is incredibly inaccurate and misremembered
-Complaint about a modern feature in the game not existing, when it does
-Jeff or Brad relates some incredibly esoteric Mario Kart experience or opinion from 15 years ago, assumes it still holds true and is universal today

Maybe Im wrong then. Im pretty sure that I have heard Jeff say something to the effect that phone tech is so boring now, that anything could do anything you want now. Meaning they all have very core apps that almost everyone wants, and they have decent cameras

That doesn't conflict with what they're saying in any way.
"So what are you doing next Dan?"
"I don't know yet, I am thinking about doing charts for Polygon."

If all that ends up being true it will be the greatest quick look of all time.
"So Dan, you got a new job! Congratulations!"
"Yeah, I can't really talk about it yet but it's really exciting. I hear you found a new editor?"
"Yeah, we can't really talk about it yet, but it's really exciting."
This is every game.

Did this thread just realize they don't really like Giant Bomb now?
New Patrick blog guys, whatdidjathinkyall??? I think Patrick needs to edit his writing down more, maybe this was just kind of a filler article but I thought it was pretty pointless...
I kinda did........

This thread hates and loves Giant Bomb, as it hates and loves itself.
Is it the one he said he would write about... taking a vacation? I was hoping he wasn't serious.

-Specifically, Jeff mentions how Mario Kart 64 was objectively a huge disappointment to everyone
-leads into further explanation of how N64 games were awful except for OoT and Mario 64
-Bonus Points: "The Genesis had better sound hardware than the 'sness'."
He's just the counterweight to the others all being heavily invested in Apple products (and shitting on Android all the time). I actually find it pretty refreshing and funny, it's nothing serious.

yeah I've been noticing that more and more about his articles, he's good but he needs to run them by someone first or something (if he doesn't already).

The difference is Rorie isn't as funny and is kind of a boring nerd.
You're kind of a boring nerd.
Wow, that came out of nowhere. Did he eat your puppy or something?
