Man, Lego Island is WEIRD. Lego Island 2 isn't very good but at least it's actually a game.

DLC to dig faster?

They actually make a joke about that in DLC Quest. I never thought it could be real.

Similar to Dave, I used to talk to John Romero every once in a while on AOL Instant Messenger around the Daikatana era. He gets a bum rap.

damn, Dikatana on the N64 reminds me of how bad some of those N64 games look

Lego Island may just be the best game ever created.

Big Trouble in Bad City.

God this episode is so funny, just constant laughs throughout the whole thing. This feature is quickly becoming the best live stuff on the site.

Daikatana had RPG elements in a FPS and AI partners. These are now more or less standard in modern FPSes. Granted they tried to do it on the Quake 2 engine with a team of inexperienced amateur modders, but damn it!

Oh LEGO Island. So much time spent playing that game. I believe the only thing that I considered "beating it" was playing as the kid, Pepper Roni, and delivering pizzas. Your last customer is the Brickster, who uses the pizza to melt the lock off and starts destroying the island, and you get to ride a helicopter and throw pizzas out to slow him down so that the police can nab him. His defense is throwing donuts to slow the cops down.

Good times were had with this game. Thanks for the nostalgia trip, @drewbert!

You can definitely fly indefinitely in Just Cause 2.

Anyone know what coat Jeff is wearing? Man that thing is awesome..

@mattbodega BO-DE-GA! Nice callout.

Oh god, that lego city part. Haha xD.

+1 for lego island nostalgia

Good Christ I fucking love Lego Island. I would play that shit again today.

Huh, thought I replied to this video already. Guess the site revamp made it disappear...anyway, that Lego Island sure is something! I think I used play some lego game in the past, but it was most likely Lego Island 2, if something. Because I'm sure I would remember the traumas this one would've caused with it's mindfuckery...

Also, I can only hear the song go "Brick by brick, suck my dick..." anymore, even if I try not to.

lego island 2 is the VASTLY superior game.

VASTLY.

Drews nostalgia trip made my happy

There's one simple reason why Unprofessional Fridays are a cut above the rest of GB's live programming: VINNY. Mic'd. On camera.

I hate to say it but I like the format of these unprofessional Friday videos more than Thursday night throwdown. Probably because it's a lot looser and doesn't have to be multiplayer. Keep it up guys! I hope this doesn't go away.

I too, played a lot of Lego Island. Now I want to play some more with some beer, feels like it could be a completely different experience.

I could watch you guys play Just Cause 2 all day. Hopefully it's not the last time we see it.

Tom Nook is a hardcore motherfucker.

Aww I wanted a longer look of Luigis Mansion

Unprofessional Fridays are the best thing ever.

Worth the price of admission.

I distinctly remember loving that Lego game, I thought it was some of the funniest shit....

It was great to see Brad playing iOS games go so well.

So... watching this made me realize I played Lego Island at some point.

Had you asked me if I'd ever heard of this game 10 minutes earlier I'd have said no.

This continues to be an excellent feature. Looking forward to Fridays again.

I don't remember Lego Island being quite as crazy as a child. Lego Racer and Lego Chess were also pretty fun.

lol Vinny is so tanked....I love unprofessional fridays.

I'm really diggin this new feature. Keep it up GB.

Lego Island is a Russian nesting doll of what the fuckery

Guys Mane n Tail is for horses OR PEOPLE, you're allowed to use it on yourself it's not weird, there's nothin weird about it!

Lego Island 2 > Lego Island.

No way. Lego Island 2 is a better "game" but it had none of the charm.

I played Lego Island a lot.

I remember like 1% of this shit.

This makes me happy...Lego Island was one of my first and favorite computer games growing up

I did a Let's Play of most of LEGO Island. It's a ton of silly fun, I love how over-animated all the characters are. All of the music is fucking great too. It doesn't really hold up these days as a video game, but it's never going to not be funny.

Recently the British music magazine NME was soliciting it's readers to nominate their opinions for the best 3 consecutive songs streak on a album. One of their editors suggested that The Rolling Stones’ 1969 classic ‘Let It Bleed’ 3 song run of: ‘You’ve Got The Silver’, ‘Monkey Man', and ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want’ should take the prize. Well folks I'm here to nominate the prize for the best comedy 3 zingers in under a minute prize to a Mr. Ryan Davis. Starting in the Lego Island section roughly around the 50:09 mark. The holy trinity is as follows: 1.) "Just go fuck yourself." (50:10), 2.) "I'll be in the 9th dimension, tripping my balls off!" (50:19), and 3.) "You punk ass bitch." (50:39). Staggering verbal riffing man. I thought I was going to pass out from laughing so hard! Comedy gold.

Oh my god, WHY are you playing Daikatana on the N64, that's like playing Starcraft on the N64

No... no. That's not the same at all!

I remember being a kid and thinking that Lego Island was the greatest game ever made. And you know what I still think it is the greatest game ever made but for completely different reasons.

Lego Island and Lords of the Realm 2 were my PC games of the 90s. Drew should look at Lords of the Realm some time, that game was amazing back in the day.

Lego Island 2 > Lego Island.

Lego Island is... trippy as hell guys. Don't think I realized that as a kid.

MARIO? MAAARIIOOOO?

Oh my god, WHY are you playing Daikatana on the N64, that's like playing Starcraft on the N64

Aww i was hoping he would take an extra hot pizza to the criminal so he could break out of jail and steal a helicopter then go bring forth the Apocalypse.

I played so much of that game when i was younger but so little of it has stuck with me : (

I also remember some awesome lego train sim game i played to death.

@TheBostonPops: ...holy shit.

I remember as a kid Lego Island was impossible to get working right, and the lego people never showed up in my game, and even without that I still convinced myself it was awesome.
