Deserves to get clipped and youtubed. So good.

SK is self-aware to the point of very occasionally being clever about how it's handled
Gal Gun is just raw pandering
I don't really have an issue with either

I mean I don't even like SK, but going by what he's judging both series on it's still not really true.
In SK they at least try to write a story (which is terrible) and assign the girls some character (generic and terrible) and attempt at making up unique moves for each girl (combat is terrible).
In Gal Gun you're a guy shooting pheremones at girls who are all madly in love with you for whatever reason while getting a peek at undies occasionally.
Like, one is a lot more blatant than the other.

It's GDC next week, has anyone said if we're getting some hot streams?
Those characters get traits and attributes to sell cards, pillows, statues, whatever else. Gal Gun is like this creepy one off thing where as Senran Kagura is this constant, never ending exploitation of peoples hormones. It's the fucking GI Joe of Japan perv action.

I'm just getting to the Patrick Shave video. This is so weird and great.

Casey Powell Lacrosse 16 seems like prime Jeff/Dan QL material.

the SK games that are basically musou games are actually kind of fun to play in that nebulous way that musou games can be. except they actually strip out all the surrounding nonsense and just drop you into the fights. I mean that's a really specific itch to scratch but it doesn't make it terrible.
from a strictly gameplay standpoint anyway

Maybe I shouldn't judge it from the 3DS games but the first 3DS SK was fucking HORSESHIT gameplay wise.

I don't think so. (God, I hope so.)

it's definitely the worst one in that dept. I don't want to sound like I'm speaking higher of the games than I actually intend, but I genuinely enjoyed Shinovi Versus to the point where I'm considering getting Estival Versus

is SK the one game that Jason played on a PSTV stream that was pretty pervy from the getgo?
Nope. But hope we're getting an interview stream on Thursday/Friday next week.
I'm sure we'll get some GB Presents podcasts.
i think it just needed more episode
there wasn't quite enough stuff happening for the tension to build (bar alex not realising quite how much spare dv they have)
I want more Old Games

I wonder if they'll do a game tapes this week.

I'm hoping that Vinny enjoyed Rondo enough that instead of avoiding it like he did with Castlevania 3 that he'll keep playing it on a weekly basis until he finishes it.
That game is so epic at times.

Looked like he liked it a lot from what he played. He didn't seem as frustrated as CIII.

If Jeff really likes low quality cheap hot dogs he should come to Columbus. Our minor league baseball team has a dime a dog night I think once a month. Those are some cheap ass boiled hot dogs. 10 hot dogs...for a dollar...

completely unrelated but this real life hitman thing is so fucking cool
like holy shit i thought escape rooms were another level but this is nuts

yes, the ninja girls one he tried to enjoy but just couldn't.
Vinny already said in the Rondo stream that it won't necessarily be Castlevinnia this week. So don't count on it.
That sounds heavenly.
Nah, they just both played the game before anyone realized it was a game.

that early graduation stuff was really super common in the 90s and earlier. I can't say with experience for anything after. probably like 50% or more of my senior class (really, probably 70%) either finished senior year a semester early or only had like two classes towards the end. it was a period where they were giving high school credits in jr. high for advanced students, high school credits for off-campus stuff... there were a million ways to not be in class all the time.
was it jeff that was saying that being in advanced classes in elementary school and whatnot ended up screwing him? same thing happened to me. I was so far ahead of my grade when I went to jr. high that I was bored and badly behaved. I probably ended up being a worse student and messed up college stuff because they rushed me through stuff early on, only to stagnate for years and lose all motivation.

That was Jeff yeah. I can totally see that being a problem when you're young.

I graduated in '06 and having fuck all to do your last semester or two was still a thing. I got to leave a few hours early and would have been able to leave even earlier if I hadn't continued doing band stuff that year.
I was in a gifted program from third through eighth grade, and yeah, it absolutely makes for a fucked up transition into high school. We were so far ahead that it seemed like everyone who came in from the program either finished in the top 5% in the class or just completely flamed out from disinterest.

The only advanced placement in my school was to take senior classes in your junior year, but senior year you still had to take a full class schedule so we had college classes for college credit, which gave me a great head start because it covered all my general ed requirements for college.

I got screwed going from advanced classes in a city school and moving to a very small rural school. Got to the rural school and I find out I'm in the lower classes for some reason. I find out that my 'advanced' classes in the city school were somewhere in between lower and normal classes in this rural school. The whole first year was so damn boring because so much of the classes were rehash of a lot of what I already learned but enough new stuff to make me have to stay in them. After that first year though I was able to catch back up to at least go to the normal classes.

hey brother
I'm trying out Jeff's favored way of playing games which is sitting at the edge of the bed.
Gotta say that I kinda like it. I feel more immersed in it and way less lazy. Usually I'm at the back of the bed propped up against pillows. This is kinda nice, I still feel able to get up and out and tend to things or fetch water.

Surprised about the stuff about Drew during those days.
You wouldn't realize that at all.

That's really fucking cool. This'd be a good little piece of viral marketing for the game.

I play on my bed in the same style you do for everything but i do sit up close to the TV when playing an online competitive game like COD or Halo or something.
