Recently beat undertale, so now it's kosher for me to watch the Friends' playthrough.

The mixture of disgust and adoration with which they behold Tsundereplane might be one of my favorite moments in all their stuff.

Reading Jim loving Sterling Son's Devil's Third review and Matt really called it

quote:

Perhaps ten years ago, this could have been a fairly decent release. For a PlayStation 2 game, it’s actually quite good – except of course it isn’t on the PS2, and it’s the year 2015, and Devil’s Third isn’t good at all.

I dunno how I feel about Jim Sterling. From what I hear he is actually a fairly decent games journalist or whatever but I can't get past the fact that he dresses like a clown. I'd honestly just settle for him taking those bit stupid winter gloves off.

In the bits at the podium he's playing a character, just like Cactus Pat isn't really normal Pat.

As much as we all wish that was the case.

I'm disappointed the Zaibatsu missed "super bunny plop" as a jokey insult name.

Speaking of which, he just put out a good video on Tie Fighter.

his review is absolutely not wrong

what you think of that game is colored entirely by how much you can suck it up when it comes to the awful controls

Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.
Sterling also gave Vanquish a 5 and Bastion a 6.5, so his opinion should sometimes be taken with a grain of salt. But having watched most of the Devil's Third LP (couple videos behind) yeah he's pretty much spot on. Liam's giving this game way more leeway than it deserves.

There's nothing in that DT review that's the least bit wrong, at least

Especially the part about how the plot should be wacky and zany but nope it's completely straight-laced and self serious and there's no time for jokes when you're tattooed russian man killing people with sledgehammers

Hyper Jackrabbit is a pretty cool videogame critic if you don't mind longer videos, yeah. Sterling never really sat well with me, dunno why. Plus, if I want characters I'll just watch whatever the hell Videogamer UK spiraled into this last year, it's pure insanity now.

So I'm on a work trip and apparently Vessel flat out refuses to work if your connection isn't strong enough. Thanks Vessel (and hotel wifi).
The worst part is it tries to blame it on the browser.

The Vessel player chokes here for no reason at all. I'm using YT on 1080p with no stuttering and Vessel lags like hell even on 480p. I have a similar issue with Twitch, but at least their VODs work fine, Vessel apparently doesn't pre-buffer poo poo ever so when it decides to lag I'm hosed.
