I love these game room ones. Just because of the mood of despair and sadness in them.

Kabobber was actually kinda fun, but I was playing it on Gametap with a free trial, so yea.  That may have influenced my opinion a little.  Didn't know it was never released originally though, they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel, or maybe looking underneath the barrel at this point.

Does this mean that Kabobber, Donkey Kong Country, and Mortal Kombat all take place in the same universe?

I do like Game Room or at least the possibilities of it (without the 2600/intellivision) but agree with Ryan this week, we saw the best of this pack last week & now it's just goign to be junk until next pack.

Does Jeff really have to buy every single game? Can't he just drop in a coin or just play the demo of the game to show it off?

After the build up of, "One of the best racing games for the Atari 2600," watching them endlessly bump into walls made me almost perform a spit take.  Fucking game room, man...  So hilarious.

I feel like Jeff keeps laying out some kind of trap for Ryan, then just starts the recording before Ryan can escape.

The driving in the Sprint preview was perfect, then they started playing it for reals.

Space War only vaguely like the original Spacewar!, one of the very first computer games. Ryan's active hatred of Game Room only makes these videos better.

Oh god, I laughed so hard! After watching the race car AI flawlessly and impossibly zip around the course in some kind of superman demo mode, seeing Jeff and Ryan bumble about the track like a pair of extremely drunken, giant bees... It was so funny I can't even finish that sentence! Hooo boy...

I can't believe stuff like Space War costs $3 ! They would've sold more if they charged like 10 bucks and you just get all the games with it ...

I like hearing the life being sucked from Ryan as he is forced to participte. I wish Vinny would come back to the Game Room looks though. He always makes it sound like the games are more awesome than they actually are.

Yes, he can just play the demo. Why doesn't he do this? Why does he buy every game with money out of his own pocket, not expensed by Whiskey Media?  
 
We don't know. I don't think he even knows.

I wonder if Microsoft is afraid of releasing good games for gameroom because then the obsessed collectors might actually _play_ a game instead of just buying them all.
