Giant Bomb GoTY 2016- Agent 47, take out that Doom Marine

Posting once again, this already exists: Hitman Roulette

Made by Kotti who's a prominent member of the community, he even designed one of the escalations in the game (The Kotti Paradigm).

Holy shit, I already knew of The Kotti but not only was I unfamiliar with the roulette, I totally didn't put together that that escalation was named after him.

This has been a fantastic day.
 
Best debut seems a bit unnecessary as a category to me. I think having an award for the best game from a new developer would be more interesting.
 
That's what makes it great. He basically Mr. Magoo's himself through most of the mission

I think that would make it worse. It's like they've learned nothing and get by for free.

Watching Brad play is part of the reason I won't play Hitman myself, despite buying it. I don't even want to see the game running anymore because it reminds me of his incompetence.

I've been a premium member since the start. The Hitman videos may be the worst content since those FarmVille videos. It's right up there with Leigh Alexander, Ian producing Unprofessional Fridays and I Love Monday's Question Of The Week.

That fucking knife throw and miscalculated axe attack had me choking in laughter. Probably the best video they've done all year.

For those with HITMAN on PC, you can try Vinny's and Jeff's contracts yourself. Just search for 'hitsmas' when searching a contract.
Seems more people recreated the contracts as well.

You would think that ,but you're not willing to watch it and see. Too bad, since the hitman content is super popular because it's very entertaining, and this particular video is all awesome. Like, if you don't find the humor of the GB crew funny, why do you sub? Honest question. They're not BAD at the game, and this video is specifically about using Mexican Rules (which I need to do myself now) which makes it way better.

This is objectively false.

I think you might be taking it a bit too seriously, if somebody else playing the game ruins it for you.

Wow you have very bad opinions!
 
One of the most pathetic things I've ever read, honestly.

I've read a lot of worse things, but it seems a bit sad and seems to miss the point of GB. They're not there to do elite runs, of any game...They just want to show how games play in an entertaining way.

With Hitman specifically they're using the game as a tool to generate entertainment and humour. It's a mix of Brad's caution and occasional incompetence with Dan's evil-wresting-heel persona trying to create the shittiest and funniest death possible.

I like the fact that they mess up, as it makes me feel better about doing the same.

OT but I'm glad they did want they did with hot mess. It was interesting to hear Jeff realise that they couldn't just dismiss stuff as "politics" and what Spoiler had done was really wrong at a base level, and needed to be called out.
 
Darkest Dungeon has gorgeous art and a very slick and polished presentation.

i played and even liked the game but it's ugly as sin and the UI is just short of a disaster.
i had to get up and start my computer to look if they somehow patched the game, i couldn't believe it was up for "best style".

Finally getting around to actually listening and Brad seemed like he was just itching to fight against Overwatch in best debut.

If there's a push for it to be #1, it will definitely be Brad spearheading the argument against it; not Jeff.

Maybe step away from the internet for awhile, because this is crazy talk.

Really? Seems a bit extreme to me. You don't need to watch the Hitman videos, ya know.
 
My favorite moments from Day 1.

Yeah, finding out towards the end that Brad hadn't played SUPERHOT makes everything he said about that game click. No wonder he was so down it, he hasn't played the most innovative shooter in years.

I finished Superhot and I'm still with Brad (and Dan).
There's barely anything there and anything but the game parts is fucking lame.

I was ready to fight against the Oculus stuff winning Hottest Mess over No Man's Sky...

... but after yesterday's news, holy fuck. Hottestest Mess.
 
Are they no longer doing videos for each GOTY day?

It's more like doing things together rather than skits this time around which I think is better because that means there is more content to consume. They may return to skits next year so, who knows.(I welcome both ideas)
