I Love Mondays - 07/23/2012

Anyone else notice how Jeff always starts I Love Monday videos by secretly recording Brad? Kinda creepy.

Get Rorie to do SPAZ, or at least have him sit in on Jeff's QL.

Also, for god sakes, get GB their own office. Comic Vine seems so awkward in the background.

I haven't messed around too much with Rebellion, but I sunk a lot of time into the original release of Sins of a Solar Empire. It's basically just a streamlined 4X game in an RTS package. Fairly easy to get into.

The Sleeping Dogs talk is very intriguing. I'd love to see a bit of it and know whether or not that game will be any good.

@BonOrbitz: I'm confused. You own the game. You're interested in a quick look. Why not play the game?

Drop a Monday on it.

My cats name was Spaz :(

Blacklight Retribution is on Steam. You guys could play that. It's a game.

You guys should do a quicklook of Capsized. I only played the first couple of levels, but I think it's a game a lot of people would enjoy.

NeverDead more like NeverPlay HAA!

Wonder what podcast Jeff will be on... Will have to check that out.

To view your recent purchases on Steam, just click your account and account details and you get a nice overview of the stuff you bought.

Nows the time Giant Bomb, do some more Quick Look Throwbacks.

This gentleman speaks the truth!

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

...Neverdead Endurance Run?

@metalliccookies said:

Can we get a quick look of Pokemon Conquest? Please?

This would be great!

Malicious is pretty neat, also Tomba has been out for a while.. well, not here but in the US, I would totally watch a quicklook of that still.

Tomba Tomba Tomba Tomba Tomba Tomba Tomba Tomba.

They should find a way to play Bikini Karate Babes 2: Warriors of Elysia. The world must know of it!

Or they could not, and continue to put up literally no content.

By the way @Brad: and @Jeff:, if you open the main Steam window, there's a thing in the top right that says <account name>'s Account. Click that to get to the list you're looking for of games you recently bought.

I agree, perfect time to spotlight some free 2 play games,

Tribes Ascend

Blacklight Retribution

Both are fantastic games worth a quick look.

@Brad and @Jeff you guys should bring back QL Throwback if you don't have many new game releases.

Let's get a mic for that camera.

Gorramn it, I only came here to say that v.v

Tell Sarah to stop texting her boyfriend when she's on camera! It makes me sad, lol.

Gamespot's new podcast is called Gameplay and is run by Kevin VanOrd.

@MatthewTheBeast said:

How about some Mount&Blade Warband: Napoleonic Wars up in this?... Yeah, whatever.

If only....*sigh

We need Dave to start playing Mount and Blade games again, cause no one else will.

J'AIME LUNDIS

i would love a sins of solar empire quick look!

NEVERDEAD QUICKLOOK!

How could it have possibly taken this disgustingly long for this outstanding game to come to my attention?

How about Quick looking M'Dickie's Wrestling Empire for PC >.>

Fuck this player. Why am I forced to watch the YouTube version?

Brad could have gone to his steam profile without logging in to see what he's bought recently through the steam sale madness.

You guys can still do the Ys games on Steam.

Something has already been done on Day Z?

Hey Monday.. I.. really... like you too.. you know... *awkward silence*

Wouldn't these "grim" times be ideal for some form of daily episodic content? The complaint that nothing worthwhile is coming out these weeks can only go so far.

Can't wait for Darksiders 2.

DayZ TNT DO IT! There needs to be more DayZ

Coming this week: Uhhh...stuff? Yeah, let's roll with that.

neverdead please

edit: Big Jeffrey presents NeverDead please

Didn't they say like a year ago that they had some new episodes of WUTANG in the can, and were just waiting for a lull in game releases to put them up? I will swear on a stack of bibles that Ryan said this - either that they were done, or that they were going to be done soon.

But yeah, the lack of episodic content is a bummer. One episode of Dwarf Fortress every two weeks isn't exactly enough. I was hoping the video production would have ramped back up by now, considering the transition to the new office has been done for like four months, and they appear to have all of their new video equipment finally.

SPACE PIRATES AND ZOMBIES! HECK YEAH!

How about some QL Throwbacks of the best of the N64's game library, since you previously did the same for the Dreamcast?

I'd love to see some Blast Corps and Jet Force Gemini QL action.

And you could cover the terrible THPS 2 port, where the soundtrack songs were all like 25 second hyper-compressed loops instead of the full songs, because of the N64's terrible audio and storage limitations.

Can't wait to see some Sleeping Dogs stuff. The trailers are making it look sort of Training Day-ish, which could be interesting.

where's that la mulana thing mentioned last week, i'd really like to see that. I guess I could just watch the SA LP, idk if they did the remake though.

No content July shall continue unabated! Huzzah for boredom!

Poor Brad

EDIT: Play Sins of a Solar Empire!

This.

Can anyone actually FIND where the Gamespot podcast actually is?

Sins of a Solar Empire and Pokemon Conquest need some attention.

Can't wait till next week when Giant Bomb once again pretends Kingdom Hearts doesn't exist.

(I recognize not everybody is into those games, but I imagine there is a significant number of people, who don't follow the series as closely as I do, who would want to know what that game is about.)

COMBINED ARMS QL! Git on it Drew!

So nothing out this week, MOBA WEEK IS GO!!!!!
