You said as much in the PS4 community, so I already knew

Someone actually reads that? I'm shocked.

 

[Antiwhippy]

i've been laughing about "what a time to be a vive" for the past six hours send help

And we don't have to crowdsource bad jokes for the thread title now.

And we don't have to crowdsource bad jokes for the thread title now.

Hey. Hey.

We already agreed that 'Drew, Fuck this Tank' would be the next thread title. Don't let a bad pun turn you down the wrong path.

 

[derFeef]

2/5 Quantum Break from Jeff is loooooooooow.

I really did expect at least a 3/5 from Remedy.

Jeff giving a (modern) Remedy game higher than 3 is not going to happen.

But... PAIN.STEAM.PAIN.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

The devs at Beamdog (Baldur's Gate remakes) always give a nod to the GB crew in their Steam Store screenshots

I love that they do this. I've been debating getting BG too. It's on sale. I'm super tempted to buy it but I also want Hyper Light Drifter... Decisions.

Oh....I guess I confused into the space for it

No worries.

 

[yami4ct]

But... PAIN.STEAM.PAIN.

We cannot repeat the atrocity of Reduced Fat once again.

Nah I'm talking about the thread title for the vive steam.

I always like reading Jeff's reviews, even if I don't always agree with him. I'm looking forward to playing QB myself (especially since I got it for free). That being said, I'm still surprised that Brad didn't review the game. Obviously there's no rules on who should or shouldn't review a game, but I would have liked to hear his thoughts since he also reviewed Alan Wake.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Quantum break doesn't have chests that you can open so I don't see why he would review it.

You're right, that is why PAIN.STEAM.PAIN must be the next title.

I imagine we'll hear some thoughts from Brad on a bombcast in the next few weeks.

Isn't Brad reviewing Dark Souls 3 right now? If he is that's taking up all his reviewing time.

Yeah, hopefully he plays it and shares his views on the bombcast.
Paging Brad.

 

[Tubobutts]

Now no one will ever know my terrible Vive pun.

Is it confirmed Brad is reviewing Dark Souls? I would think it would be Austin.

Right, didn't even think about that.

Hmm, yeah could be either one of them.

 

[hamchan]

Vive la VR

 

[skLaFarebear]

of course the launch stream for the vive would be on the day i have classes all day. why couldn't the vive embargo break on another day.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

I assumed that it would be Austin, didn't Brad say on the bombcast that east were the ones with the early copies?

C'est la Vive

I'm not sure tbh.

I hope it's Austin. Not for any real reason, I just want to see a Dark Souls review from him.

 

[skLaFarebear]

2/5? Damn, looks like the worst case scenario happened for the game.

Well, Alan Wake is coming to backwards compatibility if I want my Remedy fix until QB gets a price drop.

Edit: catching up on the oculus stream. seems like most of the games at the moment are just VR ports from the Gear VR game. It'll be nice to see games that actually look like they were made for the more powerful headsets.

 

[Myggen]

Has either coast said anything about a Hyper Light Drifter QL? I'm tempted.

Someone mentioned that Jeff is planning on playing a lot of that game on his day off today, so wouldn't be surprised if GBWest records something on Tuesday.

Maybe QB not impressing means Remedy can focus time on giving fans what they actually want.

Where's my Alan Wake 2, dammit?!

Awesome, thanks!

 

[Twin Tails]

Jeff reviewed Quantum Break.

 

[Houndi101]

New Rondo today right?

 

[Fjolle]

I just accepted a job offer.

I really hope I don't get an email about it being an april fools joke.

New Rondo today right?

Alex is out, so they probably can't figure out how to turn on the stream.

 

[Zaph]

Can always rely on your boy Jeff to help you through a boring friday at work. Hoping the review thread delivers

 

[Fantastapotamus]

I really hope they do a Quicklook for Nightcry. Everything I've seen makes this game look....special.
It gives me Deadly Premonition vibes, but not good ones.

Jeff reviewed Quantum Break.

Damn, that's harsh.

Page 133 already?
For some time I felt like I could keep up with this thread but I feel like I just missed 60 pages. That's why I'm never in the Top 10

I hope Beast does a stream today.

is it just me or is brad visually slowly becoming either a metal gear villain or an male asari?

Woah it's like Jeff reviewed the game and then quantum broke time and reviewed it again

Spoiler

but the outcome was the same with both timeline Jeffs

 

[Fantastapotamus]

I hope Beast does a stream today.

I hope they start one just to be all like "APRIL'S FOOLS" and then they turn it off and go home.

 

[Tubobutts]

I hope Beast does a stream today.

I'm hoping for more Dark Souls but I don't know if whatever embargo they have means they can't show more.

It's kinda crazy how they are under an embargo but random Twitch streamers can do whatever they want

 

[Doop]

It sounds like after today, or maybe starting from today, the twitch streamers who got the game early are going to be under embargo until launch. Probably doesn't apply to the dudes who got it from the JP store though.

 

[JonCha]

Disappointed there's no Quick Look scheduled for Hyper Light Drifter. I guess it has only just come out so a QL next week looks likely?

Jeff is playing it on his day off today according to someone in this thread (I can't rememeber, probably something Jeff said on a Mixlr). So them recording a QL of it on Tuesday is likely, unless it's GBEast who are covering that game.

That's good to know. I'm a bit surprised Jeff's playing it (though like you said it doesn't necessarily mean he'll be in the Quick Look). It seems like a game Brad or Vinny would cover.

 

[oti]

I'm gonna get real here for a sec.
Super Mario Galaxy 1&2 are the best games of all time and if you disagree you are WRONG. Jeff and Brad are WRONG.

I wish I knew how to quit you.

Today's beastcast is very offensive to my people.

Dawn, Jeff has been brutal to traditional third person shooters this gen.

Poor Gears of War 4

 

[No_Style]

Why do I go into review threads and read beyond the first post? It's like I enjoy being pelted by dumb comments.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Also fucking hell, apparently it's broken up by having 3 or so missions in between these 25 minute episodes focused on side characters?

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Alan Wake was a 2/5 game with clunky exploration, a lack of enemy variety and some pretty cool story beats to set it apart from other titles so I don't see why Jeff's low review is shocking folks.

Has Gamespot ever given an XBO game a 9 or a 10?!?!?! They're clearly biased!

You wanna step outside, son?

It sounds like you want to step outside.
