Touch screens in general suck poo poo. Yes, I love having absolutely no tactile response, no beveled edges to know I pressed where I wanted to without directly looking, and shoddy recognition based easily fallible technology. That'll be real fun to play through a 6 hour video game with.

I know the Yakuza playthrough isn't the most beloved one but I'm rewatching it while on a Yakuza hype train, and it genuinely has some of my favorite moments. Even beyond Super Chunk stuff like them trying to explain the recap as it happened was gold.

"And this guy is a weird guy who just watches everyone through cameras"

"Well, someone should"

It's still my favorite. Blow-Up-Doll-San is the jewel of the orient.

This is apparently Harada's way of getting TxSF off the ground by actually testing what the gameplay might be like, so far, it looks much better than SFxT. Really cool Akuma.

I just learned Yakuza 5 is out in the West, and while I know the Yakuza 4 LP hit some fatigue, I'd love to see a Best Friends Yakuza 5 for the following reasons:

Their Yakuza 4 playthrough was what got me into their channel beyond the early Machina episodes.

It's one of the only LPs of theirs I've watched out of pure fascination with the crazy game. (The other being Deadly Premonition)

My PS3 ate poo poo recently, so LPs are my only means of experiencing the game (and I'd rather have people who heighten the experience).

Eh, according to his Twitter, the real reason is he wants to take his time and enjoy the game. If he did an LP it'd either be insanely long and meandering, or really short and missing a ton of stuff.

Yeah, I was hoping Pat realizes that LPing a game is far more helpful than hurtful for a niche game. I don't understand why anyone would think otherwise (And Giant Bomb East has this logic problem, too).

Yea 5 is great (get 5, it's fuckin awesome, bear hunting, taxi races, pop idol sim so deep you have to manage being polite to creepy fans without them going so creepy security is called, throwing grown men off piers for beating up a dog, GOTY) but I can't imagine a blind LP of that being anything other than 'ok I'm gonna spend today's video just wandering around town talking to anyone to see if there's side stuff to do, just like I did the last three videos' or so focused on just doing the story it's only about half the actual reason we love these games to begin with.

Though it is great hearing all the 'yea but what about yakuza 5' jokes in the 4 playthrough. Gio brought us light in the darkness.

When Pat went into replacing the girl with 'the doll' because her numbers were higher I lost my poo poo. Blow Up Doll is the best Yakuza character and I only hope we see her in 5 saving the hostess clubs.

The best was the Gamespot Sidekick poll. Launchpad McQuack vs. Albert Einstein in the finals.

People are always sort of mad about them, especially on the GameFAQs forums. Spoiling the magnanimous, holy sanctity of internet video game polls and all that.

When Undertale beat Pokemon, there were discussions on using bots to vote, and buying space to advertise whatever it was up against in the next round.

These people are exceedingly bad at separating themselves from the media they consume so someone liking a thing more than they do is not a difference of opinion but an actual insult to their character somehow.

My personal stake in the poll is watching Undertale *gasp* beat games that're more than a decade old now and watching people flipping their poo poo over Pokemon R/B/Y not winning. loving Killer is Dead could beat those. Maybe if the votes were for the remakes or better versions they might have a chance but at this point it's like Spotify vs Walkmans.
