The moment Dan starts a statement involving the word "European" is the moment to switch off your brain for a second.

"What's the dominant religion in Europe? Do they all still worship the Norse gods?"

 

[NumberThree]

Dan is blaming the wrong sport for the chants. He is focusing on too wide of a continent too. It is just the UK and Darts that are the source of all the "weird" chants at wrestling. The thing Dan does not understand about the chants is a lot of them are sung to similar songs, fans just replace words for different occasions. There is not much to remember - most seem to get it right when drunk.

The Jason Jordan / Chad Gable is the Kolo and Yaya Toure Chant
The Enzo Amore one is the a chant from the darts (to the tune of Seven Nation Army)

In fact, almost everything that pops on on WWE was sung at the darts long before it. Hey Baby is much more suited to Bayley though.

What

I'm surprised this hasn't found its way to the wrestling yet.

Maybe at the next NXT taping in UK.

I'll totally start watching wrestling if the audience starts chanting Depeche Mode.

"What's the dominant religion in Europe? Do they all still worship the Norse gods?"

"World War 2? In Europe? Was there?"

 

[oti]

He does so too.

Yep. Just strap in and don't take him seriously. Ever.

"What's the dominant religion in Europe? Do they all still worship the Norse gods?"

Zeus is not amused.

 

[Archaix]

Seriously.



This fucking guy.

Well okay at least now I understand the wrestling crossover appeal

 

[MassiveNights]

Seriously.

Ah yes.. European football crowds, known for their high degree of sophistication and musical mastery.

 

[Antiwhippy]

The racism and homophobia fits in well with the wwe too.

 

[RepairmanJack]

Seriously.



This fucking guy.

I happen to know a semi-pro(if actual pro could even be a thing) dart player...this image is pretty accurate of a demographic.

It's my favorite thing when they treat soccer like it's somehow this sophisticated gentleman sport, meanwhile here it's been a good weekend if not too many people end up in jail

How do you feel when Dan calls an omega "The God of War symbol"?

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

man, the dark souls 2 DLC doesn't fuck around huh? there was one area in the sunken king with fucking a spell caster, a ghost, spiked floors, and traps.

It's like someone on the dev team heard that people whined about DS2 being easy and decided to go into full on fuck you mode.

 

[oti]

How do you feel when Dan calls an omega "The God of War symbol"?

I cry on the inside.

 

[RepairmanJack]

How do you feel when Dan calls an omega "The God of War symbol"?

A lot of comic fans would be mad and call it Darkseid's symbol.

 

[No_Style]

Every time I catch some darts on TV, there are colorful characters with the most outlandish shirts. I'm also impressed with the size of the crowds and how lively they are.

I follow Dan on Twitter but I must be skipping a lot of these highlight tweets of his. He's just trying to get a rise out of people which seems to be the entire reason why he's on Twitter in the first place.

 

[derFeef]

"Did they have cave paintings in old greek? Pretty sure I saw that in the 300 movie."

 

[DamnBoxes]

Alli is a bit of a diver, I don't like that about him. Vertonghen is my favourite player, but I just like this picture of Kane

Vertonghen was my first Tottenham kit <3

How did I not know you were a Spurs supporter prior to today?!

 

[Wunder]

Has this been posted yet, Banner Saga 2 QL

Loved the first one, hoping this one will be just as good

 

[Antiwhippy]

There's a banner saga 2?

 

[TheMrPliskin]

There's a banner saga 2?

Yep, seems like it's sneaking out as I've not heard much chatter about it.

 

[Salty Catfish]

I thought I would love the first one but I bounced off hard from the first few hours. Just was not a fan of the turn-based mechanics relying on individual soldiers rather than your entire team (so even if you outnumber a guy 5-to-1, he'll move as often as you do). It forced you into the weird illogical strategy of crippling all of your opponents to weaken their attacks but leaving them alive until you could finish them all in a row.

 

[Keyser Soze]

We should all sing The Darts Song together BombGAF.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

I really hope Mafia 3 comes together as there's a lot of potential there.

 

[MassiveNights]

Darts is fucking amazing, for the record.

 

[pizzacat]

Depends on if there is some type of upgrade plan put in place. They say they don't want to fracture their player base but they still probably want people to buy the new ones so I'm hoping for some type of upgrade plan.

Can't imagine how that will work out during development time for a game

 

[RepairmanJack]

"They should just talk over the whole Demo Disc....eh that wouldn't work."

Finally getting to Demo Derby, off to a good start.

 

[Curufinwe]

He's just trolling a safe target.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Holy crap 1 hour and 20 mins.

The people that think GTA V and The Witcher are going to run at 60 FPS are hilarious.

Let them dream, their disappointment fuels the more enjoyable corners of this forum

 

[Robaperas]

Alli is a bit of a diver, I don't like that about him.

Well after yesterday's miss against Stoke... No one should like him.

So I've been 12 hours without Internet or TV and I'm starting to experience withdrawal symptoms. I need my GB fix.

 

[Salty Catfish]

I really hope Mafia 3 comes together as there's a lot of potential there.

Definitely, though I'm always more than a little skeptical whenever a video game (particularly an AAA title) attempts to address race. Let's hope they handle it better than The Division.

 

[stump sock]

GTAV is insanely optimized on pc, so I can see where the sentiment is coming from, but yeah, it won't hit that.

TW3 at 60 is a good joke though.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

How do you feel when Dan calls an omega "The God of War symbol"?

I don't blame him. It's sad but how often do you actually see any of those used?

 

[oti]

I don't blame him. It's sad but how often do you actually see any of those used?

No, dude.
No.

Don't go there.

 

[TraBuch]

Fucking power is out again, and the weather's perfect this time.

 

[Glitchesarecool]

No, dude.
No.

Don't go there.

My fiancee pointed out that college frats have them a lot, which I forgot about. But other than that I can't think of many sources these days.

I often call my guns my alpha and my omega.

Is that cool?

Is that alarming to you? They've used them for literally hundreds of years.

This fucking guy.

This dude knows what he does and doesn't give a fuck.


That's awesome

I'll allow it.

I know, I've seen a movie or two in my lifetime. But this shouldn't be the first thing you're thinking of when someone says "Greek Alphabet". Don't you agree?

 

[Glitchesarecool]

Ok what am I missing Oti because in the US I'm having trouble drawing up other sources that I would see even semi-regularly.

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

my problem with this ps4k stuff isn't feeling like a second class citizen because i already felt that way as a PC gamer whenever I played on the PS4

Spoiler

BOOM

but if PSVR is going to get fuckt on the OG PS4. It already seemed like trying to pull off proper VR was a tough proposition for the OG PS4 so im wondering how PSVR will be impacted by another piece of better hardware being out there, if at all

 

[Antiwhippy]

This dude knows what he does and doesn't give a fuck.


That's awesome

I actually think that Dan would really like darts.

Most darts tournaments I've seen is usually just a pub expanded to the size of an arena.
