The Lost Metagame Episodes: Patrick vs. Jeff!

So it's been over two months since I was a Whiskey Media intern. That's not gonna stop Mr. Domino new Metagame videos from happening! Time travel!

Alright, fine. Here's what's actually going on here: I was going through old files on my computer and found a few unreleased Metagame videos we shot during my last week at Whiskey. This is just installment #1 of a three-part finale I'm choosing to call Metagame: The Lost Episodes. Hope you guys enjoy it!

By the way, in the time since we first did these videos, a lot has happened in the world of the Metagame. When we last checked in, they had just taken Kickstarter donations from folks who wanted a deck of their own. You can keep up with their updates yourself on their Kickstarter page, but basically, the non-copyright-violating card redesigns have been done for quite some time and the cards themselves are at the printers! They should be done by December, and once that happens, I'll probably make a video or something showing them off for you. Here's a sample of what the new, redesigned cards look like:

Just like before, you should leave a comment letting us know who you think won the debate and why. Wanna see the rest of the Metagame videos? Check out the playlist right here!

I was pretty bored until Jeff opened his mouth. Damn that was a good laugh.

Clearly Jeff wins. Apparently the best skill to have in the meta game is the ability to bullshit. I want to try it.

So many rappers.
 
I think that guy from Midnight Brown provided the better, more eloquent answer.  A wordsmith, he is.
 
But dammit, I have to agree with Patrick.  Although his argument basically came down to, yo... it's Ms. Pac-Man and arcades happened.

Jeff is a lyrical wordsmith. Putting anyone up against him is folly.

It's impressive how serious Jeff managed to be even when Patrick was laughing at him. It's like he went into some sort of zen mode where only he and the camera existed and the others might as well not even been there.

If I had been Patrick I would have gone with teaching the kids about gender and how a red bow is enough to make people think of it as a girl pac-man.

Patrick's argument is actually better, since he was arguing for teaching video game history, while Jeff was just talking about teaching about Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!, which isn't historically significant or relevant in any way.

Braid seems to be the ultimate "good answer" card. Punchout seems to be the "I'm making up total pretentious bullshit about a game about a tiny boxer" card. Vinny and Jeff both DOMINATED with it.

What we really need to do at Giantbomb is take our likable, charismatic editor's; and give them a chance to be super boring.

In that respect, this whole thing is a great idea!

Ok so I think Jeff wins but, the question is kind of weird and it always bugged me, what do they mean which game should be required in school, like played in school? or analyzed in school, the question should be something like "From which game can children learn more?". That would make more sense.

Should have been a pole.

Jeff just edges Patrick out since he was making good points all the way till the end of his time, both of them threw down pretty good though.
