Quick Look: Game Room for 12/01/10

First try at the quest...

could it be?
 
EDIT: goddammit, so close.

For some odd reason, I like Game Room.

" For some odd reason, I like Game Room. "

Not into game room to be honest

Game Room... because Jeff doesn't hate himself enough.

what happened to sunset riders? i really wanted that

My favorite QLs

Nice i was wondering where game room was this week.

yay, game room...

I never understood Amidar, not 30 years ago, and not now.
 
Off The Wall should have got the Vans license, but it is a treasure trove of Atari sounds.
 
Twinbee, aka Stinger, a great shooter for its day and some great music, although it's the kind of shooter that is centered on having all the powerups and then running the board for points - a relatively new concept at the time since before most games' powerup was a double ship ala Galaga.
 
I hope this renaissance of Game Room continues and look forward to some Sunset Riders.  It is ironic that Game Room finally starts to get interesting after the developer is shut down.

Twinbee!

Pacman + Qix = Amidar?

always enjoy the way Jeff read those history sections.
"players take control of KUNG! FU! LU!"

Off the Wall's sound effects are awesome and horrible all at the same time.
 
Parodius had twinbee in it.

Good god the twin bee music/sounds are so good.

Is it just me, or has Game Room gotten way more awesome since Krome went under? Seriously! 
 
I actually kinda miss the good old days of completely worthless Intellivision games and Ryan trying to kill himself during the Quick Looks. "I hate you Jeff. I hate you for putting me through this". Or whatever.

Goddamnit WHERE IS MY POOYAN!!!?!?!??!?!?!

I hate to say this but I liked the game room QLs better when the games were complete and utter dogshit

Noticed when I was playing the demo of Amidar on the 360 version that the music was there one minute & gone the next so no telling why they couldn't have fixed that. Overall agreed that it seems that the catalogue of game room is redeeming itself now.

Twin-Bee looks pretty cool.

After watching the love for Twin Bee, you guys really need to do a Quick Look of Shoot 1UP.

Uh! Could this be the end of the Game Room slump? Of course, given the long history of Game Room suck, it would have be completely awesome for an entire two years to make up for that. But until then, Jeff and Co. can keep checking up on it and drop some fresh beats from Twin-Bee and such.

Hearing the P-Wing sound just made my day. MADE MY DAY  
 
:D

Oh hey BTW 
  

I'm sorry, but if you guys are going to start liking the Gameroom games you play then I think I'm off this ride.

That ladder bonus stage reminds me of the very same ladder game I've seen Korean kids play to decide who will be 'it' etc. Much like rock, paper & scissors.

3 years before ST:TNG was on our screens. So that's where they got the design from!

Game room will not give up and I love it for it

@  Jonny7892 agreed the horseshit makes for funnier commentary

I love Game Room quick look ^_^

I live for references to the battle bridge in Quick Looks.

The Amidar music is awesome: 
    

Ryan imitating the Twin Bee music is a clear sign that he is succumbing to madness.

Dragon? Looked like a caterpillar was having a seizure.

Twin-Bee might be one of the only Game Room titles that didn't make me feel ill.

Even though it has slightly improved since the closure of Krome, I still think it will take a miracle to make Game Room a success.
