These dueling endurance runs are a great demonstration on why you should attack obstacles with a positive outlook. The VJ run accepted the shortcomings of this game, made the best of them, and got through the game without too much trouble. BR are having a much worse time. Their apathy, scorn, and frustration seem to get in the way and they end up lost and dead much more, generally accompanied by tons of complaining. All four guys are obviously very capable game players, but attitude seems to divide how much enjoyment they get out of the game and how well they do in it. Luckily for us, both ERs are fun.

What was the comment about Vinny for?  I remember there were a few comments made at BR's expense in the messages back when team VJ tackled the deer head room, but I don't remember Vinny himself saying anything.

You really have to appreciate Ryan for keeping the mood cheerful and Brad calm when Brad does bad and seems like he's about to just quit.

Man, Brad's lack of health kits makes me mad nervous. Especially when he doesn't recognize the benefit of running away from shotguns.

I can understand the choice in the room of deers, as the shadow of luchadeer casts fear in the hearts of everyone to those who mock him, but it's just more opportunity for further ER as the team overcomplicates things.   

 
It would have been interesting if during the chase of the raincoat killer if it just reversed the process from ealier involving all the L/R running, box pushing, etc. Am I the only one who would greatly enjoy (when Swery makes a sequel to DP) that he lets the crew from Giantbomb do some of the zombie/cast voices??

Haha, I totally got stuck on that door my first time, too. Took me like 10 minutes to realize what the hell I was supposed to do. Seeing York knocked back like that over and over again is fucking hilarious, though.

Poor Brad shoots a random deer head, and the runs away since it didn't work. Oh, and just like VJ, they are afraid to eat Thomas' Biscuit.

I heard some stuff in the background, but I must have missed the good ones.  Do you remember where his best comments are?

Ah, yes, the stone door. Hilarious.
 
*sigh* I hate being the Negative Nancy, but Brad shoots a single deer head (the one that's not upside down, I might point out) and says, "Nope, won't work." I've never played DP so I don't know what I would do, but surely I would also shoot the upside down head?

So painful to watch when they Ryan suggests hitting the deer heads, then they try a not highlighted one, then leave the room.

@crono11:  I knew the moment they tried hitting the not glowly one they were going to think that wasn't an option but at least they didn't have anywhere else to wander to.

That door seriously got me stuck. I even had to google it to find out why the door wouldnt open (the one you have to hold A for). In my defense you never had to do that previously so I never thought to actually hold the A button down. 
 
I feel silly for not thinking to try that now though. At least they figured that part out faster then I did only to get stuck on the easy flipping deer head puzzle haha

I was wondering about Drew. How does he handle watching the same puzzle twice? And when one group can't seem to get it down and spend dozens of minutes figuring it out. How does he hold it together?
 
Heh, anyways, it'll be interesting to see how Brad and Ryan dig the grand finale and all that includes.
