I bought Persona 5 it's too late for me to stop spending money on bad video games

 

[Tagyhag]

And that's how /TheRedPill/ was created.

 

[Strax]

Here's some more B-games they should play.

Big Mutha Truckers 1 & 2, Darkwatch, Dog's Life(I know it has been played on a UPF), No One Can Stop Mr. Domino, Musashi: Samurai Legend, Rygar, Gregory Horror Show, SOS: The Final Escape, XIII, Shadow of Rome, Godhand, Killer 7, The Gataway, Shadow Man, Road Trip Adventure, Blood Will Tell, Fear Effect, Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast, Fire Pro Wrestling Returns, Alter Echo, Bishi Bashi Special, Armed and Dangerous, Samurai Western, Incredible Crisis.etc

But most of them are C games, at best.

To me B-games are stuff like Call of Juarez, Haze, Beyond Good & Evil, Smuggler's Run, State of Emergency etc.

does


does voodoo vince have a better camera than yooka laylee?

 

[Fireblend]

Just doing nothing is also pretty chill, and doesn't require you to spend money on a bad video game.

I actually find doing nothing pretty stressful.

You know what's a good ass b-game?

[Fantastapotamus]

I remember Rogue Trooper actually being pretty decent. That fits the "B-Game" category perfectly

Last time Dan played that, it turned into a one on one basketball game.

 

[Meguro]

Does Alpha Protocol fit the B-Game category?

 

[Death Metalist]

Stubbs the Zombie

Hell yes. Fantastic soundtrack as well.

I recall it being either too short or too long

Man, feels really strange without Dan and Drew.

It's not the same.

It's not the same.

 

[SomberOwl]

They should play some of the Conflict games. Desert Storm 2 or Vietnam.

 

[EdReedFan20]

My first thought when Brad said "I also hope you went to class." during the NCAA 2000 part of demo derby.

Timing is everything, I suppose, because he actually just graduated from Ohio State today, five years after the tweet was posted. He earned a Bachelor's Degree in African-American Studies. He was an NFL rookie this past season.

You're right. It's better.

 

[randomlyrossy]

I feel like that was being pushed as a AAA game? It certainly ended up being more like a B-Game by the time it released though.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

You're right. It's better.

you're out of your fucking mind

 

[cordy]

Future and Ab-Soul suck.

 

[Data West]

Drew makes no difference whether hes there or not on a Demo Derby

hottest take

 

[Blitzrules240]

Dan is the genius of some of Giant Bomb's greatest content.

 

[EdReedFan20]

Drew makes no difference whether hes there or not on a Demo Derby

hottest take

My take: Despite not being a "founding member" of Demo Derby, Jeff is (and will always be) the best part of it due to him being able to recollect his time in the industry back then. Case in point: He was in one the videos in the most recent episode!

Demo Derby was good when it was just Dan and Drew, but became something more when Jeff joined.

 

[Mr. F]

Haven't been around much this week- do we hate Ben yet?

 

[Doomvape]

Atleast Dan and Drew made alot of jokes and talked during Demo Derby's. So far it's mostly Jeff talking and Brad and Ben sleeping.

Real take

Pre-Dan going to NY the worst Demo Derby was the only one Drew wasn't on.

 

[Megasoum]

lmao at Dan and Vinny loading the Voodoo Vince credits to see if Phil Spencer is in there and then completely missing him cause they're talking about something else haha

 

[Xater]

You know what's a good ass b-game?

Stubbs the Zombie

Absolutely.

Also what did I do in my childhood and teens that I played all this stuff?

 

[LurkerPrime]

Ahh, Murder Island is a regular thing?! My joy knows no bounds.

 

[Incandenza]

Armed & Dangerous and Stranger's Wrath are two B-games I would like to see.

Edit: Oooh, ooh, and Otogi

 

[Twin Tails]

Yis, it seems

Huh, Ben was commenting nonstop.

 

[Incandenza]

Ben cackling at the Thrasher cop was the best part of the Derby.

???

Were you watching gamebomb.ru's version of this demo derby? Ben and Brad were active during this.


Also while Dan and Drew have left the series it was able to keep the dynamic that makes it work tbh.

So you have the seasoned veteran (Jeff), the other person who is experienced but not as much as the veteran (was Dan, now its Brad) and the person who is pretty new looking back (was Drew, now its Ben).

 

[PurpleMoustache]

I wonder if Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg counts for B-Game. I remember that game being far better than it had any right to be. Weird Katamari/Action game mix that had a shockingly good multiplayer mode.

 

[Doomvape]

Okay, Ben's joke about doing rails in the bathroom sold me. I once again love Demo Derby.

 

[Master_Funk]

Jeff is always gonna be the most interesting person on any video he's on, so Ben and Brad riffing off of him is perfect.

My hot take is that Ben already riffs off of Jeff better than dan. Dan was great with his own input and stories but he wasn't the best at improv with Jeff . Dan is waaay better at GBeast than he was at west.

Unless it turns to either wrestling or Jeff's adding his own stories to Dan's stories lol

 

[Dineren]

Is there an archive of Rorie's stream anywhere? I thought it would be on his youtube channel, but I don't see it.

You can look at his twitch channel. I did receive notifications from it and they do auto archive stuff. I thinks it's frailgesture.

 

[Hjod]

Edit: Oooh, ooh, and Otogi

Oh my god, Armed and Dangerous, that would be so good..

I think I have the game at my mothers place, in the original box.

I played the demo with my brother so many times that the cd went to shit, then I got it for my birthday.

The memories haha.

 

[Keyser Soze]

My B-game of choice....

 

[Sakwoff]

I really like that Ben actually picks up on Jeff's bits and rolls with it. That has really been missing from GBWest.

Good Demo Derby.

 

[QuantumSquid]

they spend the entire video talking about if phil spencer had anything to do with voodoo vince and then when his name finally shows up in the credits, they miss it completely.

 

[Incandenza]

Another quality B-Game: Rocket: Robot on Wheels, from your friends at Sucker Punch.

 

[LurkerPrime]

Seeing Drew play the first level of Mischief Makers for 20 minutes wasn't enough. It needs to be a B game.

 

[Saty]

I find Ben's voice unclear and a bit unpleasing. So that's a problem. And while it's too early to pass judgement, it doesn't seem like he's bringing a different view or taste in games. Even if you didn't like Austin at first, you could acknowledge he has something to say that the other members don't and that he covered games that other members didn't before and haven't since (same goes for ' a Drew Game').

 

[Guess Who]

... i like the new demo derby

 

[neshcom]

Ben seems cool. Will be stoked if he gets a little more comfortable with the crew.

Oh wow, kind of an unceremonious end to Demo Derby.
