you should just quote your previous posts instead of making an updated list because I have no idea what you added or not

I'm not adding anything since I think these are more than enough and I doubt that they will play most of what's on the list but it would be a pleasant surprise if they did. Most of them are hidden gems(to me anyway).
Good to see another FMV quick look coming up.
I've read between the lines. You're not fooling me.

Rip tabs
I've been able to keep my pinned tabs down to 2-4 since I vowed to finally throw them all into a big session buddy session

I'm looking forward to sonic even though i've never played a sonic game. I just need games to play on the switch.

because that gets confusing

At some point what's the functional difference between bring your B games and your regular playdate, really.
they get to argue about what a B game is for 2 hours in one.
Mario Party isn't game at all, just a computer fucking with you for hours on end for no apparent reason.
Voting on whether or not they have to keep playing it. I mean, if the gods were cruel we would still be hearing about spicy moves.

Both Niers are actually B games though.
when you thought you had a hot take, but it's actually just a room temperature take

Hot take, another one of those meaningless phrases nowadays. Like B game.

I mean budget wise yeah. I remember them describing the budget of automata as like being at the bottom rung of an A budget.

I wasn't knocking the Nier games, I love them. But they're both clearly low budget B games.
No. Except Rising maybe. Platinum is the modern B game studio.

I think Bayonetta and rising are fairly high budget?
Wait aren't we doing real suggestions or are we still doing fake suggestions? Or are the fake suggestions the real suggestions because they aren't actually playing real B games but fake B games chosen by the fake b game criteria in their mind. But then want does that make the real suggestions for B games, real B games or fake C games?

Where do Nintendo games fall? Is BotW a B-game? It's certainly too good for the moniker, but the marketing blitz was about on par with Command & Conquer if my number-crunching is correct.
And we all know marketing makes-or-breaks the B in a game.

I dunno if the GB guys have 4 VR setups, but I neeeeed to see them do a playthrough of Star Trek Bridge Crew. Bring back Drew to man the helm as a mini throwback to the flight club days.

I will never understand how the guys keep talking about how Soul Calibur is the best in the franchise when SC 2 and 5 exist

I thought the bombcast e-mail set up a broader discussion about reviews but the answers were kinda narrow, about what bases are covered for release date.
The interesting question to me is whether reviews should be consumer guides at all - and I don't think that should be their primary function anymore.
We need like one or two reviews going through the content of a game to see if the type of game is for us - if any at all -- nowadays that kind of reporting is done on forums anyway. Reviews should be a contribution to a debate about the game and games as a whole, and attract readers for the particular voice of the reviewer. It should be a well written text entertaining in itself if there's to be any value to it. I feel the bombcast discussion was stuck in the past.

Going back through my trophy list for some PS3 B Game ideas...
El Shaddai
Lollipop Chainsaw (which could probably be finished if it goes to a 2nd episode)
Mini Ninjas
Anarchy Reigns
and some licensed but not tie-in games that might count
Captain America:Super Soldier
007:Bloodstone
The Godfather II

Yep, me too.
Most of them were good. I really enjoyed that series - but like I said many times I am in the minority.
