I'm a majority of the way through The Order 1886. I like it but it is by no means mind blowing in terms of gameplay. It really is a graphics power house and story focus. If Jeff is reviewing it, which I assume he is from the brief mention on the bombcast, he'll give it 3 stars or maybe 2.

I give your prediction one star. Not because I have any inside information, or anything. I just want to give out a star. A single, solitary star. Life is empty and meaningless. Any breath you take could be your last.

And... scene!

Cars 2 sucks! I give it a four-out-of-five.

I hope Brad plays Bully. I've never played it and would like to see him play it with Dan sitting next to him.

Yuri Lowenthal (Yosuke) is a champ and will always reprise his characters.

They recast Kanji and Teddie. Vanilla P4 is pre-fame Troy Baker.

Oh man, Lowenthal was awesome. He was really natural.

Kanji and Teddie were perfect. Gonna be curious how they sound in vanilla.

Kanji is exactly the same, Troy Baker was replaced in P4 Arena Ultimax.

Aw really? He was pretty good. Knew his voice sounded familiar.

If I was a game developer sending my new title out for review to Giant Bomb, I would be absolutely terrified to find out Jeff was the one reviewing it.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

of all the voicecast changes done in the persona rereleases, Chie is the only one that's really noticeable to the keen of hearing and, really, it's nice to have someone who sounds closer to the character than the original voice. Atlus has done a great job at making sure those changes were done with care in mind.

The podcast could be Vinny, The Wolf and the Black Dragon.

Extending that thought, I saw Shawn Elliot tweeting a couple of days ago that he'd totally be down for joining a regular podcast as long as he didn't have to fanny about with the editing. Like, it was an open invitation for whoever to contact him and get it set in motion.

hopefully he'll review the new DoA game because apparently it's broken as heeeelllllll

new Chie > old Chie > JP Chie

Unless you were Ed Boon.

I see they have successfully suppressed Dan's Majora Mask love by banning him from doing a QL. They even let Jason do a QL about anthropothized cats cooking meals for savage poachers. It just seems like Jeff finally put his foot down, i cants believe it.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Aw really? He was pretty good. Knew his voice sounded familiar.

Yeah he's great, one of his best performances. Thankfully his eventual replacement did a great job in ultimax and persona q.

I'll be playing the fighters and PQ after I restart and beat P3. Might as well while I'm on the Persona train. Choo choo

Everyones already played majoras mask tho! You don't need to quick look what everyones seen!

 

[justjim89]

I wonder if they'll do a QL for Lucius 2. The idea of a Hitman-style game inspired by The Omen where you play a evil little kid orchestrating "accidents" for people is too good to squander.

I would love a Majora's Mask quick look.

I've never seen it...

good luck beating PQ in a weekend

I'll probably need to buy it first hohoho

I just finished watching Patricks video of it and that game is bad.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

gamespot gave Kirby a 5

I expect a 3 star review from GB

You actually expect GB to review it?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Dan reviewed Captain Toad so yes

The first Lucius quicklook was awesome, so I hope so

 

[tchocky]

Dan reviewed Captain Toad so yes

Dan said last week he was reviewing it I expect a 4.

 

[Brashnir]

Dan reviewed Captain Toad so yes

If he just reviews every Nintendo exclusive just because it exists, that's pretty gross.

 

[Bacon]

If he just reviews every Nintendo exclusive just because it exists, that's pretty gross.

What?

 

[Brashnir]

What?

there's way too much exclusivity worship in this industry. Expecting him to review one exclusive just because he reviewed another one is shitty.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I don't see how it is gross. care to elaborate ?

Dan said last week he was reviewing it I expect a 4.

Hmm i am thinking a 3 because of the shortness of the game but we will see!

 

[LiK]

If he just reviews every Nintendo exclusive just because it exists, that's pretty gross.

lol, Dan is the Nintendo guy now. At least someone is reviewing them.

 

[eznark]

huh?

He just likes playing nintendo games. You are reading faaaaar too deep into this

 

[KingKong]

Dan is in the pocket of Big Nintendo. Why do you think he's pushing Mario Party so hard? Wake up folks

 

[Brashnir]

He just likes playing nintendo games. You are reading faaaaar too deep into this

I like playing Nintendo games too, but that doesn't mean I play and review every single one.

You also don't have a job in the games industry

 

[Jimmyfenix]

lol

 

[Basileus777]

Dan and Alex are the only people who could have reviewed Kirby. There's not a huge pool of other options.

 

[Brashnir]

Thank god for that.

Dan and Alex are the only people who could have reviewed Kirby. There's not a huge pool of other options.

no review at all is an option.

 

[Anjin M]

Man, remember the bombcast with Brad Muir and Jeff Green? That shit was so good.

Replacing Brad and Jeff with a different Brad and Jeff was a stroke of genius.

 

[Basileus777]

no review at all is an option.

Why is it an option we would want?

 

[Brashnir]

Why is it an option we would want?

because that time could be better spent elsewhere.

 

[Basileus777]

because that time could be better spent elsewhere.

I don't think the time Dan spent writing a review is going to make much of a difference used elsewhere.


And this is a really bizarre thing to argue for.

[Jimmyfenix]

My mum still has some rupees. I don't know if they are usable in the UK

 

[PBalfredo]

On the hot new February release of ......?

 

[Brashnir]

It may come as a surprise to you, but reviewing games is not the primary source of Giant Bomb content.

 

[Basileus777]

Think of all the time lost that could have been spent on Punch Out features.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

they're already lighting a fire under Gamespot's ass for giving Kirby a 5/10...

I had to find a new review thread to help me cope with The Order review thread getting locked up : /

Dan is still providing video content + reviewing games. What is the issue here?
