What ever happened to that secret video they recorded and would take a couple weeks to edit?
Dan said in the last thread that it's coming eventually but it's not a priority.
What if that video was just the GB crew redoing the Too Human thing with Dan and Jason? The video would be hood as shit, Jeff would be putting the industry on alert as he went off on #GAMERGATE. Dan, Jason, Drew, and Brad would be in the background. Then Drew would hand him a Choco-Taco.
Pretty sure that is a joke but there is a point on that Half Life Marathon where Mary (along with fake Drew and Danny) is shouting "poop" for what feels like a half hour.
Brad said on release.
I just found out last gen versions come out in November, so I am a bit disappointed. Not ready to upgrade yet and doubt my PC will run it.
Like "the raid" and "world tour" it is something they never should have hyped until it was ready. Not really their fault - sometimes they forget how many people read their twitter.
A few people seemed interested last week, so heads up, Bombin with Alexa Ray is starting soon. Expect lots of LOTR talk http://www.giantbomb.com/chat/
I bet Patrick will push his Hobbit agenda.
That damn Shire Justice Warrior.

The last gen versions are already compromised. They toned down the best thing about Shadow Of Mordor which is the nemesis system.
I laughed when I saw Jason Biggs was there, because I remember an EGM article on the Gamecube and Xbox launch parties and them mentioning it was weird that he was at both of them

Has the iOS Video Buddy app not been working for anyone else lately? It hasn't uploaded anything since UPF.
He's been pretty good about streaming lately. It's actually pretty tough to keep up now.
Working perfect here (iOS7).
How did they not comment on this guy, so fucking creepy. why is the camera so close.

They commented about this guy several times, didn't they?
Jeff thinking out loud about the raid is completely dissimilar to an official promotion they ran for a world tour. Bad planning and idea in the first place, and I don't think any of the na/eu/aus targets were met, but any hype for that particular idea is completely on them.

Yeah Dan basically told him to wear normal person clothes and stop being that guy.

Man, some people are actually mad that Dan asked the question of which war drew would rather be in.

Just pronounce it like Alex, it's not that hard.
Drew is a lover not a fighter.

So, Alex said that MK8's framerate in 3/4 player splitscreen is "absolute garbage".. The game runs at locked 30 fps at that point, so I can only assume that he doesn't really play console games that much.
Not that he's wrong, though.

What is GiantBomb Unplugged: Avalon?

Mario Kart 8 is really good for showing people who allegedly can't tell the difference between 30 fps and 60 fps that they actually can tell the difference.

It's them sitting down, playing Avalon. A board game, hence the name Unplugged.
He lives in berkeley iirc. I don't think he had to move when he started working for hit detection, so I assume he's as close to the cbsi offices as he has ever been.

He needs to play The Longest Journey and Dreamfall as well, if he hasn't. That he cares about women in games but hasn't played that series seems crazy. Such great character writing, with a female lead, over a decade ago. Plus it's just a great series.
Maybe I'll shoot him a note through GB.

Also Patrick's reasoning about Nintendo not being known for technical marvels was a little weird. They actually ARE known for very stable framerates and making the best looking games on their platforms.
Yes please, more Jeff Green is always a good thing.

I haven't listened to this morning's show, but the devs over at Nintendo have always done the best with what they have. That since the DS they've always been a generation behind tech-wise with every machine released makes it so their games aren't pushing the latest tech, yeah that's true, but they always maximize their efforts. The Galaxy games still hold up, for example, and their first party Wii U games all stand up really well to PS4/XB1 games thanks to them finally have some decent hardware to work with and great art direction.

That part I found weird as well. Especially since one of the popular webm's and gifs thrown around when people start having a "60FPS vs 30FPS" non-argument is the one of F-Zero I think on the Gamecube?
The one thing I respect Nintendo for even though I don't get as excited for their games anymore is the "gameplay first" mentality, and that also means they will always target 60FPS
