Miller and Gies are 2 people this business would be better without

Indeed. It was the only segment of all their E3 coverage that I completely skipped.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I bought Wolfenstien The New Order after Bethesda as I have never played it (£6 and I also got the pre order bonus somehow) and I can't get into it. Cutscenes seem fun, but actually playing it is a drag.

Probably for the best, now I can just buy Mario on the 27th Oct and not Wolfenstein too.

I bounced off it originally so I figured I'd give it another shot last night and it just feels off to me. It's a little like the dishonoured series where it's something I should really enjoy on paper, but there's something about the game and how it controls that I can't get over.

 

[Meneses]

but no more ben and abby goodtimes. they were a good combo.

e3 was a good proving grounds for them and their pod i hope means they'll be both pushing for new content ideas as well. dan has noticably been the main driver in the past few months so hopefully we'll see more experimentation from both coasts

I don't really connect with the youngsters. I'm glad they're feeling comfortable doing their stuff but it's not for me.

Give me $5-8 at Taco Bell and I'm feeding third world countries

I was at taco bell recently with a friend, I laughed at the menu when I saw a $5 meal that totaled something around 1700 calories. He promptly ordered said $5 meal.

Did he get the Baja blast

Thinking about the calories in a Taco Bell meal is a lose lose situation

I've just started listening to the e3 night podcasts. Jeff is 👍💪👏

You're friends with Dan?????

He actually went with water.

Can't just be drinking empty calories with your 1700 calorie lunch.

I also got it on sale the other day, but I've been really into it. The narrative is definitely the strongest part so far, but I've been having fun shooting and stealth killing Nazis. It has some rough edges (enemies seem to get stuck once and a while), but if Wolfenstein II is more polished then I'll be even more into it.

"My First GOTY"

 

[broncobuster]

Cloth Map is cool.

The Nuclear Missile Base guide is very jolly when describing suicide after the nuclear apocalypse.

 

[Ashby]

Tim Turi is Dan's best man! Maybe I'll have a friend one day!

Just starting the Trinity's E3 segment and it's gold 1 second in

 

[Death Metalist]

Looks like it's about a bald guy that punches(?).

OPPAI

Funny, subverts a lot of anime/manga action tropes. God tier art. Strongest and most badass character of all manga, King.

The anime adaptation is pretty amazing. I typically drop even the most well-done adaptations of things I love after a few episodes but this one had me desperate for new episodes every time.

Judging by the name, I would expect one or more punches.

I watched a few episodes and can confirm it's about punches. Lots of punches. The pacing of it needs getting used to though as it feels to me that it's TOO random at times however, I'm only 4 episodes in and the animation is fucking superb.

Summer jam?

The theme has been stuck in my head ever since the conference.

I dont see how that missle silo video was 'through the lens of games' other than 'sometimes games have nukes in them!'

I am not complaining.

Fuck video games.

There was that simulator on UPF with Drew behind the controls of various nuclear missile launch sites. I'd link it but putting the right search string to find that game would put me on all kinds of lists.

 

[Ashby]

The only games that I've stuck with as of late have been Fire Emblem: SoV and Nier Automata. I don't think I like video games, I just like 8-4.

reminder to send Dan birthday feet pics

I sent him something better than feet.

FOLKS

 

[Megasoum]

Yeah... I still don't 100% understand what's the exact purpose of Clothmap? But anyway I still enjoy his videos so I don't mind

 

[TraBuch]

Guys, guys, motherfucking .HACK//GU HD IS A FUCKING THING AND IM STILL SO HAPPY EVERYONE BUY IT SO THEY MAKE A REAL .HACK SEQUEL MADE FOR CURRENT GEN SYSTEMS AND NOT SHITTY PHONE GAMES!

 

[LurkerPrime]

Don't forget about XCOM 2's expansion. It sounds like it'll be real special. It and DOS2 are real nice reminders than turn-based games are back.

 

[LowRoller]

It's a shame a better turn based game is out the same day.

It seems like travel around and do the videos he wanted to do at Giant Bomb but didn’t have the budget for

I'm still shocked this is happening, I thought for sure this series was dead forever. I still wish IMOQ were being remade first though.

 

[Vic_Viper]

Did Alex and Ben ever do their Persona 5 Spoilercast?

Anyone know which feed it will be under when they do if they havent already?

No, and probably presents unless they do premium. Alex is hanging out in SF for a little while. Did it after E3 instead of before this time.

Indeed. It was the only segment of all their E3 coverage that I completely skipped.

Yeah, after Greg got plastered and took off his shirt at E3 a few years ago, I cannot stand him. That and his enabling and defending Colin, I don't see what value he brings to the table. I've yet to see a GB E3 video where he has anything I felt like hearing.

Yeah, I wish Tim would leave Kinda Funny because I like him, but alongside Greg (and previously Colin), I can't stand him.

In a wheelchair for League of Heels was pretty funny though.

Nothing remotely close to that happened this year.

Good to know he can handle his booze better. Let me know when publicly denounces Colin Moriarty and his bullshit.

The dozens and dozens clamored for it, and were #blessed with a bountiful gift.

 

[John Rabbit]

I dont see how that missle silo video was 'through the lens of games' other than 'sometimes games have nukes in them!'

It's his first video, he's probably still working out a lot things in terms of content and presentation.

That said, I think there's a fair overlap between gamers and people who would be interested to see things like an actual nuclear missile silo. Lots of games utilize the context of war and the aftermath of war, and it was really interesting to see the real thing, especially in the 'simulator' part where he got to actually push the button.

More broadly, it's Drew, and Drew videos have been consistently great.

 

[Phenomena]

pretty sure alex said he'd do it when he was in SF

 

[Meneses]

Drew vid was really cool.

Also, I really missed his "movie quotes out of nowhere", like the Contender bit from his E3 segment.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Splatoon 2 legit makes me want to go out and buy a switch. I have never even played the 1st one!

Splatoon 2 legit makes me want to go out and buy a switch. I have never even played the 1st one!

I just bought one today and the kickstand is all loose. Now I have to ship it to Nintendo and get it fixed.

0/10 experience I definitely do not recommend buying a Switch

 

[SJurgenson]

Nothing remotely close to that happened this year.

Having just started watching the segment, and getting 5 minutes in, I'm going to disagree with you here.

Greg Miller is just so aggressively obnoxious and loud, even when sober.

 

[OdysseusVA]

what happened to the #content

 

[GitarooMan]

Greg Miller was good on his segment this year always enjoy him. Gies was good too
