Let's say you had the chance to appear on Unprofessional Fridays either as a new GB hire, or just as a one off appearance, what game would you play to let people know who you are in order to show off your personality? Or would you rather use the opportunity to choose to play something fun and goofy with the duders couch co-op style?

As for me, I don't think I'd be able to pass up the chance to play some Mario Kart 64, Goldeneye or Bomberman 64 with the duders especially since they always seem to neglect N64 games on the show.

Zombies Ate My Neighbors and then bring in someone from Lucasarts to add some insightful commentary on it.

I would make them watch me play chess against an easy computer while I talked about popular breakfast restaurants around Aurora, IL

I'd probably play A link to the past or some old adventure game like Monkey Island.

MTV's Club Dead. It's obscure and crazy enough that I think people would love it. Maybe some Mega Race for good measure.

Hawken or Armored Core. And then I'll be the defacto mecha editor.

I just tweeted to the gang about Always Sometimes Monsters. The game is perfect for UPF! The story branches in a million places, and it always leads to dark places. I hope they see my tweet!

Windjammers. Or any 4 player game (Samurai Gunn, Towerfall)

As for a solo segment, perhaps Shin Megami Tensei or Gradius. Or any bullethell shooter...

I'd try winging a simulator. Something like Firefighters 2014, or anything that would be fun to watch when it would inevitably go really, really bad.

I had an uncanny ability to buy/play really crappy PS1 games so I'd probably revisit some of those from my childhood. I'd probably start with Project Overkill, then move on to Loaded (or Reloaded), then perhaps some Perfect Weapon, and then maybe finish with the main event: Overblood. I've never played Overblood 2 so I might try to get a hold of that, too.

NES Robin Hood Prince of Thieves. Top-down action RPG, side-view dueling, bird's eye view party based combat. It was a great game.

It's a weekly show where the Gb crew gets together and plays random videos game on a couch every friday. Here watch some clips of it on youtube.

Probably Devil May Cry 4 or Vanquish. Something super fast with a high skill ceiling. I'm not killer at those games but I feel like most video coverage doesn't do them justice and would like to attempt to do so.

Edit: Fuck all that, I'd just make the group play Mario Party 2 with me. Mario Party games make for hilarious videos.

I might play a game of Blood Bowl and try to explain the mechanics of it to people.

I'd probably give Battlefront a whirl? But I'd almost rather just an entire live stream dedicated to Battlefront.

Maybe Inquisitor, but, I don't think that would be a lot of fun to watch someone else play.

Lastly, off the top of my head, I'd do something like "pick a game from GOG" and play old, practically incomprehensible games like King of Dragon Pass.

Sin and Punishment. That game is the type of weird 90's anime aesthetic I really like. Its also a pretty cool arcade style game.

I would make them watch me play chess against an easy computer while I talked about popular breakfast restaurants around Aurora, IL

Honey Jam Cafe on Butterfield. Not really around Aurora, but I'd like to avoid the city of police lights.

It's about that time of the year I play Super Mario World again, so maybe that.

Also Dark Seed 2 or something along those lines could be pretty great

Just to play something fun and goofy in multiplayer would have to be New Super Mario Bros.

For a game I just play.... Lode Runner, but that's a bit dull so.... Ultimate Spider-Man.

Either some of the weird/obscure games I played back when I got my first pc, like Tonic Trouble or Asterix.

Or, as far as good games go, probably some Hitman: Blood Money.

I'm really resisting the urge to say it has great writing because then you will make assumptions about me.

Goldeneye. Jeff and the other guys would shit on it obviously but as I play it I would try my best to explain why it's one of the best shooters ever. Also Kingdom Hearts 2.

-Like @crithon said, Zombies Ate My Neighbors (I still have the music stuck in my head sometimes).

-Fear Effect (one or two).

-Lode Runner (any would do but most likely the the weird polygonal N64 one)

I bet it's really hard to come up with interesting stuff to play every week. they seem to consistently pull it off though.

I'd do some Cryostasis until it crashed or some multiplayer dawn of war II.
