If there isn't at least two hours of EVO/fighting game discussion on the podcast, I'll be super disappointed.
Best game on the Wii U and this generation.

Last year only Woolie saw it and they barely talked about it, it was a huge bummer.
That means I am the real winner!
Those last 2 really drained the energy out of me.
They saw the max highlights I think? I remember they talked a little about that. Maybe thet watched it this year! #beleive. Except pat was probably grinding ff14, laim probably watched some animes or played vidyas, and matt might have watched ki or mkx?

So the winners of Ultimax didn't get gold sticks like everyone else.
True. The only way to solve such a problem is for them to connect dreads. Like that one scene in Avatar.

IP lock released, but you still have to get the jankiness of the translations. I don't think this breaks the bet yet.
Goddamn it this is what I get for checking twitter immediately when I wake up

Was Liam's bet playable in english? Or was it just servers here?

I would presume proper release, and unlocking IP doesn't really constitute a release. At least, in my book.
I'm not sure which twist you mean, but he didn't even start S2 since all the rollback Liam told him about.
I still don't know if this counts, but the wording for this bet has become pretty shit over the past few years. Pat seemed to say "playable in some form in the west," which this is, but he probably won't let it count. He also said he would double down forever, but he's backpedaling on that too so I don't see Pat giving anything up.

This EVO was pretty good, aside from that Infiltration vs Gamerbee fight. Xrd definitely had the hypest Top 8. Also, woolie announced for SF5 which is cool.
Of course, those sticks are only for the winners of real fighting games like smash bros
Yeah, the bet still goes, but it's a step in the right direction at least.

I wonder if Woolie is gonna address that Ultimax winners didn't get the gold TE2. That seems super weird considering that Madcatz confirmed that the nine games were gonna have them as prizes
He probably won't since its Ultimax tho.

Alright Woolie you fucker you better know that JAM PROJECT MADE THE JAPANESE INTRO FOR RISING ZAN:

They are going to argue about it for an hour on the podcast.
And fans will argue about it for much much longer than that.
Thanks to this tweet by Plague, I found 2 short little Best Friends animations with almost no views.

It seemed Woolie was okay with everything in S1. Despite it being quite flawed. Spoilers for S2:
The twist I am talking about is the fact that Inaho/the MC got shot in the head and did not die. Same thing as the Princess.
Went back and watched USF4 Finals since I missed it and now I'm hoping the EVO talk on the podcast will be super good. A lot of shit to ramble about among all the stolen shit, hype sets, and Necalli getting announced. Jesus christ, all the stolen shit.
His like of mechs made him not notice the rest of the boring schlock I assumed I'm also not sure if I'd call that heavily telegraphed.
The biggest rollback. I'm not surprised it killed it for him really.

I thought it would be hilarious if it happened, but when it did actually happen that's a pretty big fuck you.

It's Evo. You should be as/more paranoid with your shit than you would be at your local arcade, which is to say you should basically go in with your wallet strapped to your chest, underneath a bomb rigged to detonate if your wallet is removed.

The sad thing is that it you shouldn't need to be.
I mean all these thefts at EVO, and the biggest theft of all
Razer's stick malfunction that ruined the hype ;-;

So to be more specific, this is for the English version, which has an awful F2P model and a google translate translation, and is way behind in content from the JP ver. If anyone wants to play PSO2, you should play the JP version.

If you want to play PSO2, you really should just move to Japan.

MonHun-alike, sorta. It kinda invented that genre depending on who you ask.
This website has an english installer and tweaker for the JP ver if you wanna go for it.

More or less. I loved PSO back in the day and was excited for 2, but too much time has passed that anyone who actually wanted to play that game already did it years ago.
The only thing that keeps this game interesting to me is how Pat and Liam's bet continues to escalate over it. And frankly, I don't want that aspect to stop ever.

How is it like monster hunter? I only ever played monster hunter.

This is one of those weird situations where the game that it's said to be similar to was already inspired by Phantasy Star Online. So Monster Hunter is effectively a PSO-like. But I digress.
The main similarities is that you have a hub area/lobby you hang out in and you select missions or quests that take you to different areas. It's not really about taking on huge monsters like MonHun is.

why not just play ARR then since Pat basicly said its a better MonHun
skLaFarebear

There are structural similarities like the hub/mission based world, vendors to craft better weapons/upgrade weapons, etc. but from what I've seen its more quest/level based than just taking out monsters. And it feels a lot different as an action game than MH does. It also has a sci-fi aesthetic to add to it

PSO2 is F2P (and not the crappy kind). FFXIV is also just really different in its combat compared to PSO2 since PSO is more of an action game.

So, what's the deal with the whole reboot thing? Is it happening? If it is then I suggest we take the Nintendo route and call it "New Super Best Friends Thread"
Too confusing. Like the 3DS. Let's go with ''Super Ultra Best Friends Arcade Remix Hyper Edition EX Plus Alpha Omega Kaizer Wolfgunblood Garopa The Next Generation Thread''

"Complete the actually impossible mission directive!" Ugh, wow. I'm not sure how, but this is where the game design has become actively offensive to me.
