Wish I had known this stream was going to happen... I didn't see any stream listed in the upcoming schedule, so I didn't check.

I love the Sega CD, it's the future of video games. I honestly have a ton of amazing memories with that system. It looks super outdated now but it blew me away when I was like 8 years old.

Jason's love of Lunar is heartwarming.

Wirehead and Sewer Shark: still better games and stories than The Quiet Man.

I love when Giant Bomb goes full-MST3K. And I love it even more when it's FMV.

I was waiting for The Witcher to show up on Netflix and ended up watching this and I'm so fucking happy I watched this. Incredible in so many ways.

Thanks, guys. Sewer Shake is a bad game, but it's my bad game that I played a lot.

Honestly Wirehead is probably one of the least bad FMV games from that era. Watching it wasn't too bad.

I don't get it, it sucks, it's sick, it's a pain in the a$$, it's old, then why play this, instead of...something good?

Alright, so I've watched half an hour of this so far and I have zero idea where they're getting the numbers from in Sewer Shark. It's like a fever dream.

Anything not on YouTube I have to watch on the site when I try to watch on an LG oled the video just stops and shows next video to play, I refresh, turn off the tv, reconnect my wifi, it doesnt matter. I tried for 2 hours off and on watching this and at 29 to 31 minutes it restarted everytime right when they were switching to wire head. This happens on any non YouTube video if I load up the browser on the tv and watch it. Has been happening for a while but it's pretty frustrating. There's nothing I can update or really change.

Lunar: The Silver Star will always be remarkable to me for an utterly bizarre but remarkably successful effort within the fanbase to replace all mentions of part of the game's story with a fan-written plot, complete with descriptions of phantom cutscenes that were never in the game. I have to wonder if the retranslation Jeff mentioned is a legit effort or an extension of that nonsense.

Bless Jason for requesting that song, which is, mercifully, inviolable.

@steveurkel: I had similar trouble with my old TV years ago, and since I had no PC I had to download GB vids via the PS3 browser. Maybe you can download and put them on a USB drive or cast them to the TV until it works again?
