*HUGS my Ethernet adapter*

I know many will disagree with me, but I think it's inexcusable bullshit the Wii and Wii U don't have a port on the console. Wifi sucks for gaming.

 

[Jamie OD]

Wouldn't surprise me if that picture was the inspiration for this game.

 

[hwy_61]

Giant Bomb is on the front page of twitch with the second highest amount of viewers at 15k "playing Call of Duty: Black Ops II on Extra Life 2012".

HELL YES GIANT BOMB TAKIN OVAH 2013!!

Good pickup from Ryan on the Trash Panic connexion, was my first thought.

THE OPINIONS AND METHODS PORTRAITED BY LITTLE INFERNO ARE NOT SHARED BY NINTENDO INC.

Haven't actually seen that disclaimer anywhere, does that mean Nintendo endorses this?

It's inexcusable I agree. Ethernet chipset costs little to nothing. I play ps3 and 360 over wired only.

Wii U doesn't have an ethernet port? WTF is this shit?!

 

[Hoo-doo]

This game is strangely satisfying to watch. Especially how everything burns in it's own way.

 

[shadyspace]

I don't get how this game works.

Wireless is the future, bro.

 

[MThanded]

This game would be fun on my ipad for like 1 or 2 dollars. The art direction is really great. Couldn't see paying 15 dollars for this.

 

[Majine]

They were supposed to play Buttman first...

 

[zroid]

Not making excuses or anything, but fun fact:

I've never plugged an ethernet cable into any video game system since I have owned video game systems with ethernet ports

Whoever disagrees with that is flat out wrong. I wouldn't be able to use the ethernet port, but the option would've been nice. At least without having to buy extra proprietary products to use fucking basic functions. That's some despicable Apple type of bullshit and Nintendo should be criticised for it.

 

[base shagohod]

Wireless is the future, bro.

Next Gen.

 

[purg3]

game looks cool, but it seems like it would get old after 15 minutes.

Yeah, and 99% of the time you plug a cable in and it goes. Wifi issues are VERY hard to diagnose when you don't know much about it.

Nintendo still doesn't completely understand online and probably never will unless they buy a company that can handle it.

 

[Balehead]

Patrick should start multitasking and speak while playing the game instead of letting the fire die while he explains.

 

[strafer]

Now what?

 

[hwy_61]

I bet Jeff is flipping his shit right now. lol

 

[Haunted]

Well, that was a fruitful first hour.

 

[BigBoss]

Wait, whats wrong with their internet?

 

[chogidogs]

They should put the E3 dance music on so we have something to do atleast.

 

[Plasma]

I bet Jeff is flipping his shit right now. lol

At this point he should just whip out his TurboGrafx and start playing that.

 

[Beelzeboss]

24 hour Wii U stream!

Mass Effect 3 will be beaten

 

[rmanthorp]

Break music? Dancing gifs?

 

[mikeGFG]

guys, some break music: http://socksmakepeoplesexy.net/misc/Jeffwah.mp3

 

[Wunder]

Great game! Part of me hopes that the game just totally goes off the wall with the narrative and turns into a different game - but that's probably my crazy imagination.

 

[hwy_61]

Wait, whats wrong with their internet?

Something with their network not being recognized by the WiiU.

 

[Doomshine]

Patrick/Ryan quick looks are hilarious for this reason.

24 hour Wii U stream!

I'd watch Brad play through Mass Effect 3 on stream.

 

[justjim89]

Why in God's name would they not test to see if the internet would work in the room they're doing the big livestream in?

 

[MuddyDonut]

I really liked world of goo too. Might get this down the line in a sale or something.

 

[kai3345]

lol

 

[a secret-boss]

This live stream is a sign of WiiU's fate lol

 

[Dragon]

Patrick/Ryan quick looks are hilarious for this reason.

They also sit at the title screen in games for like ten minutes as well.

 

[derFeef]

Man why must it be already 9pm where I am, I need to work tomorrow :/

 

[Felix Lighter]

I thought Brad was going to say Will Smith bought a Wii Ethernet adapter and was coming to the rescue.

 

[madmackem]

That was some pure car crash internet tv right there. hahaha.

 

[FStop7]

Break time.

 

[hwy_61]

Why in God's name would they not test to see if the internet would work in the room they're doing the big livestream in?

Everything else works. I bet that was the last thing they thought would go wrong.

 

[alr1ght]

Maybe they have to update the system to get the wifi to work. ;p

 

[gray_fox224]

Giantbomb.

 

[Majine]

Where is Jeffshakinghishead.gif?

 

[grimshawish]

Why in God's name would they not test to see if the internet would work in the room they're doing the big livestream in?

Am still confused why some games can't be played whilst they sort it out but oh well.
Hopefully they work something out.

EDIT: Fair enough their giving a proper chat about the issues now.
Weird how Wii U connected before and not now.

 

[Wunder]

Why in God's name would they not test to see if the internet would work in the room they're doing the big livestream in?

I assumed part of them wanted to have the 'fresh' experience like how a user would get it out of the box, and part of them assumed it would just work. I guess having weird internet would cause these them to rethink things.

 

[Drakeon]

Jeff is clearly pissed. Don't blame him.

 

[No_Style]

I love how raw this stream is.

 

[Owensboro]

game looks cool, but it seems like it would get old after 15 minutes.

I'm still confused a little on the mechanics of it. If you can start a fire at any time, why would you worry about the fire dying out? Do you get some kind of multiplier for keeping the fire going longer? Is the point of the game just to unlock all the items you can use?

Completely agree though. That seems like a game I would get bored of relatively quickly.

 

[maquiladora]

Never thought I'd see the day when the collective mindpool of Giantbomb couldn't connect a console of the internet, lol.
