I watched a bit of tyler1 when he resorted to playing Dota for a couple weeks and can't understand his appeal. He's the very model of a modern toxic shitlord.

I'm angry that this guy has so many viewers right now and now it's gonna throw off the #1 on Twitch twitter bot.

I disagree- we actually realize we're old when some grown rear end loving man with a beard and a mortgage gets on astream and says "omg yeah I'm speedrunning halo 3 today because I played it all the time on my xbox 360 as a kid!"

gently caress THAT

Hey what did you play on your saturn? If I'm not justr springing a cruel diabolical trap I had NiGHTS, Christmas NiGHTS, Sonic 3D Blast (best special zones int he franchise before Sonic Mania), Legend of Oasis/Story of Thor 2 (this game was SICK), Fighters' MegaMix and Sonic Jam (where I discovered anime)

hope you're not fuckin with me :negative:

very, very good list

i had to look up legend of oasis just now because I thought you were talking about one of my favourite genesis games Beyond Oasis but no it's a fuckin SEQUEL!!! I've gotta find Legend of Oasis now

I had sports games (early FIFAs and baseball games primarily) and poo poo and then like

Nights
Alien Trilogy
Toshinden
Virtual On

I had that fuckin Iron Man game that I was so excited to get after playing an in store demo (it was bad)

Probably the latest game in the lifecycle I got was Shining Force 3--I wish like hell we got a stateside release of the other discs of it since Shining Force 2 is my all time favourite game

For a second I thought you were saying that Bonesaw was back :-(

isn't his ban up this summer? or is it already up and he didn't show this year?

iirc bonesaw was more of a "if we don't enforce a ban on this it sets a bad precedent and gives people with actual malicious intentions wiggle room that we can't afford them" situation, he was understanding and I'm 100% sure he'll be let back in any time he wants to come back because there doesn't seem like there's ill will

oh poo poo I'm really honored and happy for you that I got to tell you there's a sequel to the genesis game. Seriously Legend of Oasis loving RULED and I didn't even kow anything about the first one till years later.

If you can find the rom I was able to easily emulate the game on a saturn emu back in like 2009 so I'm sure it's even easier to do then!!! :D

Yeah, this is more or less exactly how it went down. Bonesaw seems like a cool dude.

I just turned him on for a minute just to see WTF this was all about. He made a loud screeching noise when he killed someone or he died or whatever, so I turned him off. I don't think I'm missing anything.

no, lttp rando is not about getting irrationally angry at things you can't control. it's about laughing your rear end off at things you can't control and rolling with it.

He's unbanned, and he submitted a run for this event but it wasn't accepted.

e: Also it wasn't really a matter of him like technically doing something wrong, basically the first thing he did once he got on the mic was tell people to go spam Air Canada's twitter, which is a really lovely thing to do and probably the actual reason he was banned as opposed to all of the other silliness
