Surprised that Dan didn't remember (or mention) Regain being in MGS4:

Especially after that Japanese commercial for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKhSH3pcg1U

*watches the new mailbag*

why did Jeff get sent a Sonic Boom comic when the other two Sonic comics are so fucking on-point right now oh jesus

AND LOOK WHAT'S COMING UP OH JESUS

Sonic/Mega Man comics are really good you guys

 

[EdReedFan20]

Why is UPF on the schedule again? It says it starts at 11:00 (Eastern time). Is that just when the archive posts?

If my memory serves me correctly, Patrick said on one of his Youtube videos that someone told him they secretly signed Jeff up for Sonic Boom comics.

aha, ok that's pretty funny

I'm watching the Cities: Skylines QL and man, Jeff is really enjoying it.

 

[alr1ght]

Jeff seems so enthused to get another "box o shit."

 

[StopMakingSense]

Man,

I went ahead and watched a MGS4 story playthrough on Twitch this week, the MGS Scanlon for it is gonna be weird.

Theres going to be whole episodes of just cutscenes!

 

[Zebetite]

Metal Gear Scanlon 4 might be the only way I ever experience that game again.

What a strange mess of a video game.

 

[Megasoum]

I just can't wait to see Drew's reaction to all the eggs stuff at the beginning.

 

[FStop7]

Wait, you can't take Tylenol for hangovers?

 

[The Dear Leader]

Wait, you can't take Tylenol for hangovers?

You shouldn't, the residual alcohol mixed with the tylenol fucks with your liver I think. I've always heard it was a big no no.

Since you're the pill master, Benadryl is good for sleeping right?

 

[strafer]

okay, I need Cities: Skylines, finally I can build a big fucking city.

Screw you Sim City.

I want it so badly, but there's SO MANY VIDEO GAMES AND SO LITTLE MONEY.

Cities, Bloodborne, Hotline Miami 2, and Helldivers are all on my list of games I need to get. My 2 DS4s also now have fucked left sticks as of last week so I need to get a new one of those too....

My broke college student budget can't handle all this

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's fine, or so I hear of course >_>

How about LIQUID COCAINE?

 

[The Dear Leader]

its gr8 m8 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

[Ketch]

This is perhaps the greatest idea in the history of things.

They could put that frog at the end and see if he can shoot it with the airsoft rifle.

Dan, pls... this is a great idea.

[hamchan]

I'm afraid Metal Gear Scanlon 4 will consist of episodes that are just empty silence as they watch the excruciatingly long and boring cutscenes in that game.

 

[Blastoise]

I guess my premium membership isn't enough for them to hire a cleaner. I don't know how they function in such a messy office.

Jeff did casually joke about setting up a stream while they cleaned those desks one time.

Don't they have such a messy office from subscribers giving them junk?

Yeah people constantly sending them their garbage they would have otherwise thrown into the trash doesn't help.

A few songs on the new Kendrick Lamar are growing on me but I still say it's disappointing.

Jay Rock will save TDE.

Oh god, it's terrifying having someone take medical advice from a schmuck like me, I pray you read the instructions on the bottle lol?

Giant Bomb's video overlord Vinny Caravella joins Jeff to talk about Nintendo

THE BOMBCAST IS BA- oh its not the right Jeff

 

[Seventy70]

I saw Pokemon Stadium in the mailbag. Someone needs to convince Dan to play the mini games during a UPF. They are like Mario Party without the BS.

Yeah, benedryl should knock you the fuck out.

I quite enjoyed watching it. But I don;t think I would enjoy playing it all that much, at least the thing I watched on twitch greatly streamlined the gameplay moments.

 

[FStop7]

Hot questions for Dan: what kind of running shoes do you prefer? Are you feeling any wear and tear on your knees at the distances you're currently running?

I once just watched all the cutscenes on youtube for fun. It was fun.

 

[justjim89]

Dan and Jeff talked to JR? That should be an interesting thing. Hopefully we get a pre-Mania Powerbombcast, as well.

 

[Seventy70]

I'm really enjoying this Vinny podcast. You don't realize how much the Bombcast has been downgraded until you hear a Vinnycast.

 

[JackEtc]

Hot questions for Dan: what kind of running shoes do you prefer? Are you feeling any wear and tear on your knees at the distances you're currently running?

Not Dan, but sneakerhead here.

As far as running shoes, check out adidas' running shoes with BOOST (ultra boost, energy boost 2.0, etc). Boost is the craziest material I've ever felt in a shoe. It reacts like nothing else, and gives you response unlike any other material in a shoe.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxRmUDX99BU (this is a video about their basketball shoes, but the same material is used in their running shoes)

I have a pair of adidas Pure Boosts (not a running shoe, but a casual shoe with a boost outsole) and when I wear them it literally feels like I'm walking with springs on the bottoms of my feet.

The Ultraboost is their current flagship running shoe that just released, and although it's pricey, you will feel the difference. I'd suggest going to a store and trying a pair of shoes with boost on. Walking around you'll feel it immediately. I've told many people about the material, and they are all instantly sold the second they put a pair of boost shoes on

Not too big of a surprise. Brad hasnt reviewed a retail game since Sunset Overdrive.
