Alex has probably watched thousands of hours of WWE so he's already seen the bottom of humanity.

 

[TraBuch]

So in Odyssey, when you "die", you just lose some coins.

Well that's nice. This game seems way more casual and friendly.

I think I'm gonna enjoy it.

What are the coins used for? Can I use them to pay for prostitutes? And then throw a hat at them to take over their body?

It sounds like Alex is up to episode 15, which means he has definitely seen some garbage.

It also sounds like he was expecting unwatchable garbage, which has never been the case. It's just not good, but can definitely see people enjoying the Twin Peaks camp factor turned up to 11.

I certainly enjoyed it. Obviously it’s not really the same as what’s prior to it (and it’s clear that things were messy behind the scenes) but I enjoyed the ridiculousness of it and seeing characters who’d never really interacted before actually talking to each other was nice.

James was never cool though

 

[Curious Puppy]

I see what you did there, The Evil Within 2. What a cool fuckin game.

HOLY SHIT THIS IS TEW2?

I'm starting this immediately

I only played through half of the first one, what do I need to know going into this?

 

[Blitzrules240]

I have some gift card money left and I'm considering buying AC: Origins with it.

I'LL BE SWIMMING IN GAMES BY NOVEMBER.

Origins will hopefully be a cool game, but I guarantee it'll be half price in a few months time

Spend your money on a game that actually retains its value like

BUY WOLFENSTEIN

 

[robotrock]

I'm fairly excited for Assassin's Creed Origins. I don't think I'll pick it up till November sales time because I have too much to play right now, but the setting is cool and I think the year off should be good for the series.

I haven't really played an AC game since 4, which was great. Spent an hour in Unity and had to dump it, and I spent an hour in Syndicate but just became uninterested.

 

[Blitzrules240]

Hmmm I already have Wolfenstein and Odyssey queued up.

I was gonna get Origins because I'm a fan of the Assassin's Creed franchise

 

[J_Viper]

BUY WOLFENSTEIN

60 dollars for an 8 hour single player campaign from a company who's games collapse in price hmmm

Don't get me wrong, Wolf 2 looks awesome, but if I hadn't already got a great deal on the PC version, I'd have waited till next year

The first game was 12 hours it'll be fiiiiiiiiine

 

[hamchan]

MvC:I already $20 Aussie at CD Keys. Bomba

 

[Blitzrules240]

I mean the gift card retains value so I could just hold off till something real good comes out. Switch eshop card wouldn't be bad either...

 

[bodyofanamerican]

I see what you did there, The Evil Within 2. What a cool fuckin game.

Wait.

They do a straight-up Black Lodge reference in this game? Is it more than a throwaway?

 

[robotrock]

believe in assassin's creed. keep faith in it.

just don't preorder and wait for reviews.

MVC:I is one of the weirdest games I'm played because it's really fucking good but then everything around it is terrible and it uses a bunch of reused assets.

 

[Blitzrules240]

Yeah, I got Wolfenstein and Mario on my plate but if it reviews well and word of mouth is good, I don't see why I shouldn't grab it.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Speaking of Wolfenstein people should listen to this Friday's Waypoint Radio. It's essentially an interview with Manveer Heir who worked on the 2009 version along with working on Bioware and Activision products. It's really good.

Well, link it!

 

[kambaybolongo]

The stuff with Ben (the biker kid) is truly hard to watch. It’s so so bad.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Well, link it!

Well here it is.

Daniel and Austin are always great but it's such a good episode because it's all about a minority dev who's achieved success in the industry who's as candid about dying single player focus as he is about gender/racial issues in the industry.

The 2009 Wolfenstein game is so overlooked. Really loved my time with it

Twin Peaks the return is 100 times worse than season 2.

if you guys want a good horror show

American Horror Story season 6 is pretttttty damn good and creepy. It's like...Re7...in the woods...at a house.

2009 was a really fab title (and it sucks that it was the end of Raven because SoF2 and the X-Men titles were some of my favourite game over the time). Wolfenstein isn't the focus but the interview's about general industry stuff plus minority stuff, it's really good because Manveer gets the most airtime and he talks about the culture of the industry as a guy who worked with major devs/publishers for a long time who now has the security of working as an independent.

How does it compare to 5? I though the fist half of the season was okay, the second half was really good, then the ending was terrible.

 

[Tubobutts]

Dan eat a damn hat

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Dan eat a damn hat

I'll eat a hat if you're willing to make it a game.

I'm going to roll a dice and if it's 1-6 you eat a super spicy hat. If it's anything else I'll eat the hat I already agreed to eat. We good?

Ahhhhhhh everything I want to play are narrative focused and there are 3 longass giantbomb videos to watch.

[BreezyLimbo]

So far it's pretty good. It's a singular storyline compared to previous seasons which have like, 5 different storylines running at once, and the presentation for it is enticing. (I'm 4 episodes in)

Also it has Kathy Bates, she's fucking amazing. My favorite actress.

Also Lady Gaga is in it again, but she's prettttttyyyyyy good.

If it’s a d100 and I get the super spicy hat anyway absolutely.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I think Ben is pretty settled. *shrug*

 

[Lunar FC]

I remember everybody saying the sound mixing in wolfie was bad but I never really noticed while playing in years ago. In replaying now it's honestly shockingly poor.

 

[Rainmaker]

ben is good

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Ben just needs someone to really bounce off of. There's potential, there really is, but I feel none of West is a good fit with Ben.
