Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.

Here's a tip for Liam - or, really, anyone that has more than a passing interest in videogames:

don't preorder.

A lot of the "don't pre-order games" sentiment comes as a result of being disappointed in a game but Liam is likely of the mindset that "well i'm going to get it anyway, might as well." and he's never disappointed by anything because he thinks 6's are like, 8's. The real problem is that to try and incentivize people to not buy their game for half price 3 months after it comes out, they have these dumbass pre-order bonuses (that are often garbage) to try and get as much money up front as they can. While I understand the desire to make an actual profit on a thing you worked on for 2+ years, pre-ordering is a loving scam. I try to only do it in extreme cases, like the first run of Xenoblade in North America where they literally only sold the game via pre-orders and then whatever they had leftover sat in Gamestop with a "used" sticker on them for $80.

Deep down part of me is hoping next week we see Bloodborne part 1. When it's clicked though it's actually just Mario Party 10 full LP

This would be the worst thing because I'd be too busy playing Bloodborne to watch.

I would too. ESPECIALLY if Matt tells Woolie and Pat that they're doing Bloodborne and when they get there the tables have turned. Just nonstop excited Matt and Liam about dice rolls and poo poo while Woolie and Pat grumble and be shitlords about it.

These boys are past due for a brawl.

The only question is will they use the AMIIBO SUPPORT in the new Mario Party 10 WITH AMIIBO SUPPORT?

I'm actually kinda into the new Mario Party, I know me and my friends will like it, it's just kinda nuts that 99% of the info they put out was pure Amiibo stuff and an offhand 'you can play Bowser mode too'.

Seriously, they spend so much time talking about how simple the controls are and they're super loving not. The only way I can describe them is "Loose". Like, imagine trying to drive a car but you're sitting in the back seat and you're using a series of pulleys to move the wheel and press the pedals. And you're doing this all on ice. And the car only has two speeds: Stationary, and 200mph.


That's what AC4 controls feel like.

Pretty much this. I was interested to see Kojima's take on it and considering the record Silent Hill has been having.

The main reason why Plague is getting better and better is because thanks to Patreon, he used his extra money to actually be a human being and have art supplies instead of spending his days being a weird zombie guy.

I can't remember the episode or even whether it was in the Friendcast or something else, but I definitely remember them discussing rumors of the Predator and/or Colonel Dillon being in MKX. Specifically, they mentioned how the Predator's art style fits right in with that of Mortal Kombat, which is true- I can't think of many cameo appearances like this that mesh so well.
