He is a shadow.. the TRUE self.

They've mentioned it a couple of times, Brad and Jeff don't like MM. I think both Brad and Jeff were put off the time mechanic initially and haven't really gone back since it came out.
Well he's right.

Dan tweeted being excited for MM 3DS, so doing a Dan would be liking the game.

Shovel Knight will probably be the Papers Please / Rogue Legacy of this year. I wouldn't count Dragon Age out yet either, since they've been such big Mass Effect fans in the past.
Is Fantasy Life really that good? As a big Animal Crossing fan I've been eyeing it recently.

I meant being hyperbolic in an attempt to get a rise out of people.

Jeff & Brad for the MM quick look. The comments will be delicious.
It's fantastic but it's almost nothing like AC aside from the overall charm and the ability to decorate your house(s).
He and Jeff has been on the "MM is not a very good game" train since the game came out.
Brad is as bad as the people he hates sometimes.
Don't see how that justifies 'STOP BEING EXCITED ABOUT BAD GAMES.'

Come on, let the man fire off a few shots before he leaves for good.
Oh come on, how can you take that tweet as anything other than a jokey answer to the "Yeah, man! People shouldn't talk about games they like!" tweet? Seriously, "Brad is as bad as the people he hates sometimes" based on a not very serious tweet about him not liking MM, and then answering a couple of people with sarcastic posts? That's like the definition of no big deal.

This Is What Shoemakers Actually Believe

He started it https://twitter.com/bradshoemaker/status/530117820378398721
And I don't like how he tries to frame it like his opinion is the majority. At least when you don't like a game and you know damn well it's universally well liked don't pretend otherwise.
Oh that's better. The old 'I'm just kiddin guys!' you know, that's what the people who troll GB are doing too probably totally. 'I'm jus kiddiiiin'

Who's gonna push for Divinity though? I suppose Patrick, maybe. How much of it did Brand end up even playing? He stopped talking about it on the podcast pretty much after that one quick look.

I can't wait until the bombcast. Instead of Yoshi Island & Patrick it will be Jeff & Dan arguing over MM.
Brand said he wanted to go back to Divinity.

They already had that discussion in the same episode where Jeff and Dan discussed Mario Sunshine vs. Mario 64

Majora's Mask is trash just like the majority of Zelda games, it just a bunch of the same crap over and over with a new coat of paint and couple bogus feature/items added here and there.
My problem as a kid with that game was the time limit. I've always hated time pressure in games, so that put me off it even back then. Since OoT is one of my favourite games of all time I remember being super disappointed. Maybe I need to go back to it when the 3DS version is released.

The part where there's a moon is cool, but I was disappointed when you go to it and there's just a tree and a bunch of kids. Where's all the helium?
It takes all kinds

Same reason I don't like Dead Rising
Finally! Bunny mask all the way, obviously.
Yeah, that's another one. For some reason I just can't stand games with that kind of time pressure, even if it's a minor thing overall. Persona 4 is one of the few exceptions, but overall that's one of my biggest deal-breakers in games for some reason. But MM looks weird, so might have to check it out.

Was this the game where Miyamoto "Lost his shit" ?

Yep. The first time can be maddening, but it's like the game gets better with each subsequent playthrough. See MM: nowadays I can steamroll through like a solid 30% of the game in the first cycle post-Healing. First time through, the Moon killed me before I got the Moon's Tear.
NBA games suck this year.
NBA 2K15 was one of the biggest disappointments of the year for me. 3 stars is one star too much, Alex!

No you gonna have to live with this. Hated the game since it's release.

Maybe it's a nostalgia thing, but I don't understand the people that consider Majora's Mask one of the best games ever, I'm not knocking them, but I don't agree with that at all. I'm sure I'll get some guff for that but oh well.

I'll be playing MM for the first time. Going to be a weird experience.

While i respect the game for not being the next fucking Zelda game and do something different, he's right though.
Jeez if someone considers 3 stars generous it must be a real technical mess. And there I thought last year was bad.

They threw OoT into a blender and added a whole bunch of weird shit, along with some of the best storytelling and character work Nintendo has ever done. The weird shit means it's not really one of the best games of all time, as it's far too eccentric to not be horribly divisive, but it compliments the narrative elements so well that, should the game take your fancy, it sticks hard.
It's a game I think about a lot. The only problem is the dungeons aren't really all that, especially compared to OoT. I'd say only Wind Waker did worse in the dungeon department, and even that had more than 4.

Time for Sony to bring back their NBA series
It's mostly the online literally not working for me. Just lag city. The netcode seems worse than last year. I see some people in the NBA 2K15 thread here having a better experience with it, but shit is fucked for me.
