I love how misophonia is rare but like 99% of the internet has it

(btw I fucking hate eating sounds but think this is funny)

Also shoutout to Jeff playing BAKOON's slowed down Lockdown.

I love these vlogs!

Can't speak for songs but I've gotta go with Vespertine as my favorite Björk album. I'm a big Vulnicura fan too. Guess I'm partial to the V Björk albums?

Somehow missed this when it was a new video, but:

I think the analog controls were working in Test Drive, it's just that we were in the era of racing games where developers thought that if you wanted analog steering you also wanted to use the right analog stick for accelerate/brake.

Also there's an absolutely zero percent chance that GT1 didn't have analog support. IIRC its release was somewhat timed alongside the Dual Shock, and I recall it being a pretty big deal. It might have even been prominently advertised on the packaging? Even before the DS most semi-serious racing games still had analog support for steering wheels and weird shit like the NeGcon, often kind of temperamental with calibration in a way the DS automated, but still there. There's no way the most high-profile sim racing game to date on the system didn't offer analog.

WE LOVE BRAD

Unless I'm incorrect, Phoenix was a Taito game. Pleiads however was the first Tecmo game, and not at all an official sequel to Phoenix even though it certainly seems to have taken many cues from it.

foo fighters fuckin suck shit

now this is a magical MiSTery tour.

also it's not much of a mystery when video descriptions show every game featured now, which I'm gonna go out on a limb and say really sucks!

I don't think the Tony Hawk games did it perfectly, and it definitely looks bad in these ones, but I don't understand Jeff's dislike of them adding the off-board traversal. By far the worst part of the entire series, or any skateboarding game you can't divorce yourself from board, was fumbling with the controls and pinballing around the level geometry trying to set up a line. Making the off-board stuff a piece of the combo mechanics was a mistake, but otherwise it's an unambiguously good addition to the games.

I can sympathize with criticisms of THUG, but I don't think that's the reason.

@tr0n: English is not one of the languages to get its word for tea from the Chinese chá and thus we use chai as shorthand to refer to masala chai, an Indian spiced tea. I have no problem with this, but it does result in people saying "chai tea", or literally "tea tea".

But for what it's worth, I don't know much about traditional masala chai, but I'm guessing the majority of what we drink in the U.S. is at this point extremely far removed from that.

kinda bothered that even though the punch cards are purely aesthetic, they have both the 0 and 1 punched for some bits.

this looks good though
