Yakuza 0's story (and voice acting) is fucking great. I need to buy it and never play it just like I did with Persona 4 and Deadly Premonition.

I was going to get it for PS4 last week actually, there was a good promotion going on. But the game was out of stock, so I skipped that. Installed a bunch of Steam games from my backlog instead.
you be you, but you know
See? Yaoi-girl agrees.

This is not true but they need The Emperor of Fighter Trolls Marn on to take Dan down.
I don't see this turning out well for Prey for some reason
I'm already sold on it, but I guess this will be a good test to see if the console version runs well.
2017 seems to be the year of gaming surprises. I'm cautiously optimistic about Prey
I also feel like every time the public has gotten a hold of a demo lately it ends poorly

I feel like that's true for only one game.
The last rounds of previews was pretty positive about the starting hours. I watched the Waypoint video and it looks really good. I am optimisitc about this one.
I don't think that's true at all. Wildlands Beta sucked and the game sucked, but the NIER Automata demo was really good and probably sold a lot of people on it.

Thanks for the vid, gonna check this out. I kinda checked out on Saints Row after 4. I didn't even try Gat Out of Hell but this intrigues me.
God I forgot how much I liked this Mortal Kombat scrub league video.
Ryan: Jeff, tell us a little about Stryker, your feelings on him and what are your most valuable strategies when dealing with him.
Jeff: Well, Stryker's got a gun and he can shoot guys with the gun and that's pretty good.

Prey is a wait and see game for me. I'll gladly play the demo to check it out but will wait on final impressions and reviews before pulling the trigger. Did the same with DOOM and that turned out fantastic.
All of this grates on me for some strange reason.

I mean the commentary doesn't help, well meaning as I'm sure they are...

I love that video! Jeff playing MK is one of my favorite duder-game combinations, along with Brad-Trials and Drew-Flightsim.
Very true, but none of the gameplay looks good or fun either. Might be the character animation and overall combat look. The hot switch between characters seems pretty cool. I just wish I could put a better reason on why I couldn't watch more than a few minutes of it, regardless of commentary.

Having heard both the bombcast and beastcast, Im surprised GB are such Battle Royale(film) fans.

It's about Japanese kids killing each other.

For me it's general fatigue with that style of game and the 'attitude' baggage that comes with being from the makers of Saints Row. I was never huge on the previous games mind you, but this looks so bland that I'd be surprised if even diehard SR fans would be excited.

It's not really well-done. It's definitely overrated.

In another timeline this probably should have been what got released instead of Gat out of Hell as the budget early next gen Saints Row thing

Right. Imo the book is way better. Will Smith mentioned the book so maybe he read it.(manga is best tho)
I played the opening hours of SR3 and loved it. The bit where you hop in a car with one of your buddies and drive to another part of town, singing along to the radio was damn near magical. Same with the insanity of the open.
I should go back and play SR3.
Totally the case. The movie is okay for its shock value but kind of glosses over a ton of stuff that really makes it such an interesting story.

Hearing Jeff say Halo 2 was "meh" and then going on to praise Halo 3's story as great.

That hot sub-Borderlands writing.
I'm not so sure. Dan is stil better than Vinny, and despite what Dan says he's obviously pretty rusty, so playing more will make both of them better.
Nah. Dan is just pretty familiar with Soul Calibur, at least in so far that he knows what the good buttions are, which means you'll beat someone who's unfamiliar with the game and has to resort to just mashing. Team battle seems like it has enough rounds that it mostly eliminates the luck of ringouts and such.
I'm pretty sure even a huge wrestling mark like Dan will admit that isn't close to being true.
I dunno about Halo 3 but Halo 2's story was a bunch of unfinished nonsense.

He wasn't talking about Halo 3's story at all, he was talking multiplayer.

People thinking any sp from any halo is worth talking about in 2017 or anywhere beyond 2004
Huh? Halo 1 is a stupendously designed campaign to this day. 2 and 3 aren't quite to the level of 1, but they both have amazing moments (3 especially).

The Playerunknown situation they were joking about in the podcast actually makes sense when you know the history. The guy invented the genre with the Day-Z mod and then designed the King of the Kill mode in H1Z1. Day-Z is in a development nightmare and apparently H1Z1 is being left with virtually no support, apparently. So now that the guy is leading a dedicated studio for his own game, it's a big deal to let people know this isn't a copy cat and the actual man behind those other game modes is the guy designing this game and this is where his attention is. For random people seeing it on steam it obviously means nothing but this is a genre that was already very popular and those people who know who this guy is, know this is a game to follow. It obviously was the right decision because the game is selling at rate, that I think surpasses even Rocket League.

It helps that this game is palatable compared to dayz or h1z1. Yeah a perpetual game is nice, but getting the same feeling in the form of a 30 minute death match is...better? Its easier to swallow I suppose then having start a game punching trees and building sticks.

I get the impression that people fellate the Silent Cartographer entirely because of how fucking dull the Truth and Reconciliation's repetitive purple slog right before it is

It's super crazy that Xbox probably wouldn't still be a thing if Halo 1 hadn't hit so hard. With that in mind, it's nuts that Microsoft didn't do more to maintain their exclusive relationship with Bungie.

I assume PlayerUnknown is totally free of any blame for the abandonments of Day Z & H1Z1?

He made a mod on DayZ and he was a consultant for H1Z1. This time it's his game.
