Hello? Can you hear me? ...Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAAAAH!
So I've been listening to old episodes since I have a gap on thursday for listening. Man, Woolie was always backwards with logic huh. Episode 10, Woolie can't understand how a game developer might struggle making a good game from scratch 9 months after putting out 5 different console versions.

Also cringed a bit when they got super hyped for Telltales Game of Thrones. Whoops.

So I've not watched a lot of the SBF back catalog and youtube suggested one of their creepy anime bullshits, the DOAX2 one.

it's real good, I lost it at matt saying "loogidder tits goin' nutsssssss" as tina's right boob just defies gravity and flaps up and down in the breeze, the PROTOTYPE XBOX followed by immediately trashing it, killing tina by throwing her off the water slide, etc

The only reason the guys should get anima is to see it's overdrive which is some of the coolest poo poo ever.

But if I recall you have to fight Anima at one point or another so we might see it anyway so farttt. Only downside to not getting it in the LP is I'm sure there's jokes to be had about that summon actually being Seymours mom which might of spawned funny art.

So Hitman is now the first official triple-A Episodic game. Details here: http://gematsu.com/2016/01/hitman-now-fully-episodic-launches-prologue-one-location

Basically, no different than buying the full game if you pay 60 bucks, but the full game won't be all there until the end of 2016.

Resident Evil: Revelations 2 doesn't count as an AAA game? It was developed by Capcom's main studio. It also turned out to be one of the best RE games in years.

edit: Of course, it has the same amount of episodes and only ended up costing 30 dollars, so the pricing model is a bit shittier on Hitman.

Well, fair enough. There hasn't been a good Hitman game in a long time anyway so hopefully they use the episodic model as a "return to form" what with more big, open areas and so on. One good thing about the older Hitman games is that they had a lot of replay value based mostly on the level design, which games like Absolution lack a bit.

Revelations 2 is basically a fraction of the size of Resident Evil 4. The budget on that game was not high at all, most likely.

I distinction of AAA is so nebulous that the term is pretty much worthless. I remember a Microsoft job listing asking for developers for their next AAAA game. Call of Duty is AAA but Dark Souls isn't despite both being $60 console games. Don't even get me started on Double Fine being adamant about how they are a Indie Developer.

Triple a is the budget of the game. Any other definition is some misused meaning. Garden warfare is not a triple a game.

Stop after the timeskip, skip any episodes involving the third Hokage's grandson and/or Ebisu(?). I mean, if you want the best Naruto has to offer, rather than the worst it has to offer. Although that might be the appeal?

Right up the timeskip is like three years of filler so

I'd take large swaths of that filler over the last 4 arcs (7 years?) of the manga.

I didn't see the fillers but kinda assumed that was one third of 'em. Just straight up some production people going "well Hinata is top tier waifu while Sakura is poo poo, so focus filler money to Hinata"
I saw the Road to Ninja movie on a whim a few years ago and was shocked at how much more awful Sakura was in the anime, like straight up telling "man, my parents love me so much it's embarrassing, wouldn't it be awesome not to deal with parents?" right to Naruto's loving face.
