It must be a real pain living in Harry's mansion.
 
Whereas most people stumbling home drunk at 3am in the morning just have to worry about fumbling around with their keys, you'd have to faff about with pianos, umbrellas, statues and zombies before you got to put your feet up.

I'm going to assume by the spoiler tags in the comments that some people noticed a pretty significant hint in this episode. The game almost goes out of its way to tell the player who the killer is. The story is really concerned with York and his journey. The murders are just a means to an end.

Brad needs a new profession.  I know the bomb squad jokes about us saying that, but it's true.

I Think the zombie land represents York's lack of control/sanity from what i've seen of them actually killing him.  If he loses it takes him over

Agreed.  Make sure you capture every embarrassing mistake and keep the commentary interesting the whole time.  :) "

Well, that's what you get when you outsource your mansion's construction to Umbrella. It may be cheaper, but you have to deal with all sorts of inconvenient nonsense. At least they populate it with zombies free of charge.

In case this hasn't been said enough, I think all the people complaining about how Brad plays should probably either 1. Stop bitching or 2. Stop watching.

Man they barely reacted to the Mr. Stewart story, not really what I was expecting. Especially because Brad was stoked before about Mr. Stewart spilling the beans, now he didn't seem to care at all.

Once again Brad kicks it, he is awesome. And I know it is impossible to tell when someone is being genuine or sarcastic online so I will repeat this as an Elcor would for clarity's sake.
(Sincere praise) "Once again Brad kicks it, he is awesome."
I really mean this, what would have been a ho-hum -same-as-everybody-else's-experience foot chase after Frankenstein, I mean Anagram, was kick-butt due to seeing different death animations and a zombie consumption view.
Fact is, with the very low number of PC deaths throughout all these installments, pretty impressive with those controls, I have hardly seen any York deaths at all.
I think all these guys are tremendous, each one of the GB guys add something unique and the absence of any of them is a notable loss.
Keep on Bombing you crazy Giant.

 Well I've been rejecting the popular theory that George is the killer but now I think It must be the truth.  He was the one waiting outside Thomas's apartment and said that he saw him from outside.  But the profiling revealed that the "new raincoat killer" entered the apartment and conversed with drag Thomas.  So when it is apparent that Thomas was not in the apartment that means George was lying, and since he was the only one on the scene before York and Emily, he IS the raincoat killer.  As a side note I've never played the game but have followed the endurance run religiously.  Good episode today guys.  Sorry to spoil the game with my theorizing but it had to happen sometime.
 
EDIT: That techno rain theme music reminds me of the Mass Effect 2 club music.

O man Bradly u suck at games haha. But its so funny seeing u fail.
 
But this ER has made me wonder. Seeing Brad play it and the stuff he says about it I would really hate Deadly Premonition and think its a really bad game. But seeing Vinny play it I feel like picking up a copy. So I'm wondering if sometimes Brad hates a game and says its a bad game not because it really is bad but because he's not good at it? This is in no way an attack on Brad but just an observation on my own feelings toward Deadly Premonition after seeing two different people play it.

By all conventional measures Deadly Premonition is a terrible game.  That out of the way, I actually enjoyed it quite a bit.  The combat is terrible, but manageable if you've ever played Resident Evil or Silent Hill.  I found the plot and the townsfolk to be entertaining.  The darts mini-game is actually pretty fun.  All and all, it is one of my favorite games.  Just keep in mind that this essentially the video game equivalent of a B movie.
 
Regarding Brad's game over during the follow scene.  That was awesome and surprisingly well animated for this game.  Almost rivals crazy York face from the failed apple puzzle.  And that is really what makes the BR run worth watching.  Some cinematic deaths that aren't going to appear in Vinnie's run and I find Brad tries a larger variety of approaches to the game.  Don't know if he'll be able to beat the game, if he continues to be so careless.  There are some actual boss fights before the game ends and while they aren't difficult, they can be tedious.

Oh, wow, didn't even notice that! I hope we find out what the red seeds from those trees actually do. Apparently the military knows.
 
And guys, Thomas lives in an apartment building. Yeah it looks like a motel, but I've lived in three apartment buildings constructed that way, with everybody's front doors along balconies. Not uncommon.

theres something i've been wondering resently, why do they call it these videos "endurance run"s? because you know when they start an endurance run, you know they are gonna finish it, i just don't see them ever giving up cuz its too hard or something, i mean whats the difference between an "endurance run" and a "blind lets play"?

Anna makes you do a lap for the same reason that Nick makes you follow him at around 20 miles per hour and Willie takes the longest route possible through the art gallery. To prolong the fun.

I played DP 3 times and literally NEVER got hit by the birds, and didn't even actively try to dodge them.
 
I also never ate a zombie...which I gotta admit was pretty cool to see.
