Oh man, who would've though that making a blanket program to pump videos to children could be so easily exploited. Oh wait, this is YouTube we're talking about. :v:

In case you gave up on Jack Black's channel already, today's video had him playing (though I'm not entirely convinced) Brutal Legend for about ten minutes. Maybe you'll get something out of it, but it seemed like a lot of wasted potential, which has been my opinion of his videos as a whole.


But I was reminded of another time a big celebrity did gaming videos. Machinima might be gone, but thankfully all the episodes of The Tommy Wi-Show were re-uploaded to the show's channel.

Is LParchive still being used? I know it's still functional, just unsure if anyone is still uploading to it.

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

The archive is maintained by one dude who often gets busy in real life and thus lets it languish for a little while. Don’t worry, Baldurk’ll get to it eventually.

Baldurk should make a patreon so we can all pay his living expenses and he wont have to deal with that "job" rot.

Especially since projectwonderful died and took whatever ad revenue the archive made with it.

If Baldurk set up a Patreon or something, I would absolutely throw $5 his way every month. The Archive has been a great resource for so many of us and I really don't wanna see it ever go away.

Same reason why every ____ Kart racing game exists. Mario Kart makes a shitzillion dollars and other companies desperately want a piece of it.

I've played a shitton of every Mario Kart game but didn't play CTR until last year. I had I always assumed it was a lovely Mario Kart clone and people were just trying to convince themselves it was just as good as Mario Kart because they only owned a PlayStation as a kid and this was the closest to the real thing they had access to. Sort of like when Wacky Wheels came out on PC shortly after the original Super Mario Kart on the SNES and was a choppy mess.

Anyway, while the track design in CTR generally isn't very exciting and the cast of playable characters is even less so, it does play well and is absolutely a better single player game than Mario Kart 64. I'm not even talking about the adventure mode (which can gently caress right off), just the actual racing which is very fast-paced and the AI doesn't cheat as far as I could tell.

Diddy Kong Racing was great since my neighbour would put in the 2 player cheat and race normally while I'd drive backwards and ram anyone who was in second place, and we pretty much 100%ed the game that way

I like smashing people and I don't really care for racing

Never mind that, Diddy Kong Racing doesn't even have the fast-paced and intense racing that makes CTR worthwhile.

I have strong opinions on mascot kart racers for children.

Bonus points: there's a retelling of the banme drama from the Shmorkey years. I know that's talked about in hushed tones here, but there who gives a gently caress it happened years ago. Page 40-41ish

Does anyone know what’s going on with Chip and Ironicus’ LPs? They’re on a bit of a hiatus with no warning. I was worried something had happened to one of them, but I skimmed Chip’s twitter and everything seems fine. So, have they indicated anywhere how long this hiatus will last? I’m very excited for both of the current LPs to continue.

Chip got his job back at Volition so I imagine that’s the main reason.

They best be working on FreeSpace 3 if they know what's good for them.
If not, I'll be sad - which I am, because some lawyer bought back the license for like 5k bux which I'm pretty sure could've been crowdfunded and handed to Volition if they wanted it.

Chip makes occasional updates on Patreon. He says they're almost ready to restart uploading videos, but he's been very busy with being back at Volition and creating as big a backlog as possible so they can keep up regular updates again.
