I remember him in the lego island upf and he didn't say much during the whole thing. Granted other people were helping make the entire thing hilarious so he didn't need to, but yeah he's a lot more confident and talkative on camera now.
When they had him on the bombcast in the first basement office, he was pretty bad. Like a million times better than I'd be if you threw me onto a podcast, but there were a lot of pauses while he gathered his thoughts before speaking.
What you my have missed while getting drunk on 24h streams:

Yeah, it was always a category. I think we all agreed Wolfenstein was a hot contender this year (from GB's perspective).

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
Pretty sure they already have that, I remember them talking about Far Cry 3 for that specific award. Lords of the Fallen seems solid judging from other reviews.
Mordor is going to win this category by a landslide.

Catching up on the thread after being out all weekend and being sick yesterday
No, dude, no. Shitbot was amazing, but Ratbag is still the frontrunner for character. Dude is amazing
You know, i kinda didn't think much of Mordor before i played it but my first game session ended up being 5 hours long and i had to pull myself away from it to get some rest. That only tends to happen to me with really great games, so i dunno, i can see where you're coming from but Mordor is the only 2014 game to do that to me.

thanks
I guess that did come out in the meantime. Hm, possible, yes. I think word of mouth was very positive beforehand, though, so my proverbial money's still on Wolfenstein.
Ratbag fell out of a Borderlands game. He might actually be the worst character of 2014.

Haven't watched any of these except Demo Derby (just the right length to watch between the IG and J&L streams). I know what I'll be doing tonight!
Playing Bayonetta 2

Working my way through this stuff now. The Demo Derby was great, it's quickly becoming my favorite feature. Thanks for the links!

ratbag is an ambitious, treacherous, terrible-at-his-job orc who is also loveable and a bro for all ages.
Plus, his name is ratbag.
I can't even remember the names of characters in borderlands outside of claptrap and i platinum'd the first BL and played BL2 until it bored me into exhaustion.
Obviously not everyone's the same, but I had the same feelings about Sunset Overdrive and how it controlled from watching the videos.
It's clinched me once I got a hold of it and actually played though. Like it's a 'oh I get it' moment, for sure that doesn't translate well to video.

how do we make sure the Bombcast gets more anime commercials? hearing Jeff try to sell anime is pretty much the best.
He kinda always looks like that on camera.

no more anime pls
Am seriously considering purchasing Bayonetta 1 and 2 on Wii U even though I don't have a Wii U.
Logic and rational decision making becomes more difficult the better the game looks, but yeah you're right. I'm just worried the double pack will actually rise in price over time.

Why? The games will be there and be cheaper if you get the console later.
I've read several posters in the Bayo 2 threads who have done that. "Just bought Bayonetta 2, now I just need to get around buying a Wii U during the holidays."

well nintendo titles probably wont be cheaper for a long while at least

I could watch Jeff play Solomon's Key all day.
That's why Jeff's Retro Hour needs to become a thing.

Sunset Overdrive might be my goty so far. I'm having a blast with it. The movement and gunplay doesn't translate well to video, you can get around quite fast once you get some momentum built up. Brad was starting and stopping a lot so he rarely had a good flow going. The auto aim also isn't as severe as I expected. You still very much have to aim, it's by no means just locking on and playing for you.
For all we know, it could pull a Xenoblade and become rare in a year. not a problem to a digital buyer obviously, but I imagine some people care to have the box and only want it that way. Especially with Nintendo's digital practices.

Sweet. Hyper life drifter is now 16:9.
The early videos where only 4:3.

Just finished watching the Random PC Game of Crusader for the hundredth time only to discover that it's free on Origin right now.
I like Kidbot better than Shitbot. They need more love but less than 20% of players ever see them.
Bombin from yesterday was rough to listen to.
I know Cara is a big favourite with some of you but the whole second half of this podcast was like listening to drunk college kids. "Butts!" *giggle* *giggle*.
Do you have that condition that Guy Pierce had in Memento?
