I live for these secret levels.

Over the course of 4 episodes I've gone from "hey the games not bad!" to "ok, well, it's the controls. it was a different time!" to "actually, the controls are pretty unforgivable even for this era, and the game's design exacerbates this issue" to "this video game is Trash".

SMS good again this week?

 

[Meguro]

The thing I like about SMS is that it really feels like a communal effort by everyone.
Live and die together.

I like that Vinny questioned a very core mechanic of any 3D Mario game. Getting from one platform to another via jumping on a flying enemy.

The leap to trash is sudden. The controls are a bit off but the level design does definitely exacerbate it.

Still better than any 3D mario after it. I'll take the exploratory level design over anything from Galaxy.

It kind of went into a lull with that piece of shit Shadow Mario but other then that it has been fantastic.

I'll fight all of you. 64 and Sunshine are still the goat Marios.

Damn Brad came in hyped on Hellblade and them Jeff proceeds to immediately dismiss it despite not even clearing the prologue.

Not sure I agree but I'll give you this: at least you're playing with a real controller in Sunshine.

"I'll take needless, unprecise, filler shit over the perfect level design from Galaxy"

lmao this beauty & the geek Dan story

Jeff will read the wikipedia article then dismiss it from Best Story.

 

[Teddified]

[TumblingHippo]

Droppo the oppo, give us the Dan tapes

 

[Wunder]

Galaxy literally bored me to sleep. It's overally linear and often not anywhere near challenging to make up for it. I say this having 100% both Galaxy 1 and 2.

Stop spreading the truth and hurting me with it

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Did Dan just have a stroke?

 

[Curufinwe]

food talk is best talk

Not when Dan is involved.

The best thing about Norris jokes is Chuck Norris's role in Expendables 2.

[Liquid Shake]

See you in hell

 

[EnlightenedMint]

After I saw Dan get so far the first try I thought this was going to be a quick one....

 

[Zocano]

I took that nap and went back to playing.

Galaxy is playable joy.

 

[Teddified]

Finally!

 

[Liquid Shake]

YES! Nice work Dan.

I re-bought a Wii last year to play through the two galaxy games and it was some of the most fun I've had playing video games. They are incredible.

You 100 percented games that "literally" bored you to sleep?

Seems like a good use of your time.

 

[robotrock]

Film and 40s is the best feature honestly

 

[Scizzy]

People need to be ready for the Bradibuster, because Jeff and Dan are going to force his hand.

Spoiler

Brad will be right again.

Playable snooze.

I was honestly completely baffled at the absolute and utter praise it got. I played both the first time in like 2014 or 2015? Long after the fact (and after 3D World). Just didn't get how people were enraptured by something so simple and uninteresting. Like the gimmick isn't even used well enough.

I remember loading up Galaxy 1 for the first time and being pretty anxious and excited but then being intensely disappointed as soon as I realized that the game structure was short and linear levels unlike 64 or Sunshine.

 

[oti]

Hopefully they just watch the Netflix version of a movie. Makes it way easier to follow.

 

[Joeku]

This is going to get severely misused, as this was a negative, angry "yes".
