Is there a current place with all the latest torrents/links for episodes? A bunch on the OP are out of date, and I was wondering if there were any links to complete seasons (as far as they've been subbed) so far.

That was another great episode even though I've already seen the raw a long time ago, so I forgot how it ended and how bizarre this game is. Thank you again, SAGCCX! ![]() The best part of the episode had to be Kan poking his head in and saying that he heard Arino "did something again" after Arino accidentally hit quit on the game over screen. It just seems so in-character from what we've seen and heard of Kan as a producer.

Did that game seriously have gangs of black people attacking you in the desert levels?

Corridor posted:Oh god. My friend and I were watching it going, "What the hell are those ants or something?" And now I'm just... They definitely look like ants to me - the recording is pretty blurry, but I'm fairly sure they've got three legs on each side. Black people tend not to have those. They're giant ants, of course, but this game also has birds the size of jetfighters that drop boulders and highly corrosive, car-devouring poop onto the track, too. It's just hard to tell because the art (and everything else) in the game is so uniformly lovely. Edit: You can actually see how they draw black people at 42:38 - the crowds at the side. It's still very lovely looking, but in a non-offensive, 'we just can't draw people, period' sorta way. Dominic White fucked around with this message at 11:05 on Aug 17, 2012 |

Yeah, I'm pretty sure those actually ARE ants. The "legs" are antennae and you can clearly see six actual legs on the sides.Taratang posted:The tracker's front page is sorted by date uploaded if that helps: http://alluvion.org/index.php I like how Alluvion is at least 80% GCCX now.

Awesome, I have been excited for this episode! You all get releases out so quickly and with such consistent high quality. Thanks so much as always.

Huh, weird. I downloaded the episode and there's no image at all, just sound, even when I use different media players (I have quite a lot of different ones). Even VLC isn't playing it right. Maaaaaaaan. edit: Playing fine after a reboot. Super excited! I know just how batshit insane this game is so I can't wait for Arino's meltdown. cat doter fucked around with this message at 12:30 on Aug 17, 2012 |

I just laughed when Arino said that he'd probably breeze through it because it was a NES game, although that may have been the joke. Even back then, I generally assumed that I would never, ever actually finish any given NES game. I'm glad that my dad didn't actually hold me to the requirement that I actually finish my games before getting new ones, because my first NES games besides Super Mario/Duck Hunt were Q*Bert and Adventure Island.

It says more about the lot of you than them when in a game with giant hostile wildlife all over the place, you see some giant bugs and think "oh black people! ![]()

This is the reason why I watch GCCX. Some amazing game I've never heard of and funny behind the camera drama. Great job guys. Is it possible to mail order an Inoko MAX T-shirt? I kinda want one now. Also "To Catch a Catch Copy" is one of my favourite segments.I would never have guessed that was the copy for Super Mario Bros.

![]() ![]() ![]() (Clarification and comparison of bug graphics versus people graphics in the game) ![]() ETA: (Better screenshot) I'm 200% sure they're ants -- while Japanese depictions of African tribes aren't exactly PC, they don't make them look like little bogeymen with tiny stick legs and no facial features. The standard racially insensitive depiction is big white lips and grass skirt. ![]() ^ One of the endings from Child-Rearing Quiz My Angel, which Arino doesn't get unfortunately. ![]() ![]() ^ Bibinba, long-forgotten Sanrio characters I remember from when I was a kid.

They're very clearly ants now, but I admit I was a little taken aback when I saw them in the episode. I think part of the reason is that I've played a few racist romhacks (including one which was a romhack parody) and they typically represent black people with little crudely-drawn stick figures. So it was probably just a subconscious thing.

Great episode. What a tense moment when they confirmed it was actually correct. Also you guys are way too sensitive, even if those ants actually were people.

Lmbo at Kan peeking in with his "What did you do?!". Behind the scenes shenanigans are always great. Thanks for the episode! Man, what a stupid game. A 'racing' game with platforming, wow.

The narrator's cutting responses are what make it for me. It's like she watches all the Tamage footage and finally gets a chance to scold Arino in person. Her straight-faced delivery is what really sells it. ![]()

Her straight-faced delivery is what really sells it. I think the lack of expression from her and Kibe makes it extra nerve-wracking for the players when they explain their case. Especially Nakayama -- dude looks terrified the first time he answers. His hand is shaking.

Speaking of torrents, what happened to the season format? Episodes now come in just as files when there was a period of time when whoever made the torrents always placed the episode in a folder named "Season #". That way you could just dump the torrents in one GCCX folder and have everything go in appropriate folders. Not to mention you could (I think?) upload the torrent whenever there's a full season or at least create a new torrent easily if the naming/foldering convention is uniform. It's not too big of a problem to just look up quickly from OP what season an episode belongs to but I still think it was a very good idea to just create torrents like "Season 13/Game Center CX 107 - Paris Dakar Rally.avi".

Personally I prefer it just being the file for individual episodes, because XBMC is bloody infuriatingly specific about how file/folder structure should look sometimes. Not a big deal either way, mind, just individual un-foldered files works out better for me. v![]()

Are we really going to complain about something you can fix yourself with a Google search and copy/paste when we're already getting free subtitle work at a ridiculous pace? Thanks again for all of your hard work, guys. ![]()

Just a heads up it's season 14 man! (I know because I just organized my whollllllleeee GCCX folder into seasons) So i could watch the ring-ring tactics arc beginning to end.

Ring Ring Tactics was kind of spoiled for me when the very first GCCX episode I ever watched was the last episode of RRT. I could just never really get into it after that and often skip over it, or go to make a sandwich or something. I honestly don't mind either way of distribution but I actually kind of prefer freestanding files. I sort my folder by date modified.

I thought I threw Paris Dakar into a Season# folder in the torrent. Guess I messed that up. Oops

Paris-Dakar Rally is a work of art and if this episode had a good Tamage segment it might just have been the quintessential GCCX episode.

Besides, I sort of remember there being a discussion earlier in this thread or the previous thread about how this procedure would help to eventually collecting the episodes into season torrents. Enough spergin', though. Thank you for Paris Dakar Rally Special, it became my favorite episode ever. That whole game is monkey crack insane.
