Thursday Night Throwdown: 04/07/11

Why are they always playing with the controller plugged in?

Boatcarplane is property of Carbon Neutral Games.

SOO the best TNT ever.  Man that game really was good.

i tried playing this game, but couldnt get past the part where it mocked all the item collection and platforming in the first 5 minutes, basically saying that banjo kazooie and bajo tooie were crap, and i put down the controller, took out the disk, and never touched it again. thankfully, it was my roommates. Great way to start a game Rare, mock what made those games some of the best platformers on the N64

So pissed that I had to miss playing this due to work...

Giantbombs quote was so right, I loved this game! Really need to go back to it and get the 1000 points.

Okay, how the hell can Thomas English muffins taste actively bad? They're frigging English muffins.

This was a fun TNT. I was the guy who made the Recognizer. :)

They have four wheel turning shopping carts at Ikea

oh man, Brad getting griefed was hilarious

Best TNT by far.

YOU GUYS RULE FOR DOING THIS. GIANT BOMB MEMBERSHIP FOR LIFE.

inspired choice. loving this

this is an amazing tnt.  best in a long time.

Glen Tennis you have an extremely deep voice

This is one of my favorite games of all time. Too bad it didn't do as well as it should have. 

Second favourite TNT (after Bad Company 2). Also, Brad rage.

'BANNED FROM TNT!!'

"If someone gets in front of me, they're gonna wish they hadn't."

" This was a fun TNT. I was the guy who made the Recognizer. :) "

Excellent TNT!! I finished first in the Darts game. :)

I have this game but haven't played it yet.  That will change soon enough!

This looks like a great game. Like the Lego racer games, except the changes you make on the vehicles have an actual effect on the performance.

Best TNT of the year so far.

really? talking shit about the Yorke-ster

One of my favorite TNTs ever. I laughed so much

" I especially liked the part with the questions. "

Ryan hates Will, doesn't he... :D

This TNT actually makes me sad as when I bought Nuts & Bolts, I haven't been able to find anyone online. It's annoying me as the multiplayer looks effin' crazy.

Just bought this game

Brad scored an own goal. So typical.

Good TNT! I really laughed at the car Brad was given when the race loaded up at around 56:30. Especially when Brad was instantly being knocked over and Ryan came out with the "... this is what they suggested for your maneuverability on rough terrain" line. Great work again, guys. :D

I'm glad they've stopped playing first person shooters, they start to repeat themselves.

I'm gonna get this game now. Looks so cool.

Brad's shield generator car is possibly one of the worst vehicles I've ever seen. It's like something out of 1970s Detroit!

BOATCARPLANE! THUNDERCOUGARFALCONBIRD!

I love this game with a passion.

Boat Car Plane is the most badass thing i've seen all day. Every rapper should have one.

I forgot how great this game was. I played it sooooooooo much. Missions weren't great, but the vehicle building and charm made up for it.

The best was when that guy rammed into Brad at the second race, completely screwing him over in the process. 

@Branthog: But they can be awesome while they last, most people are done with new games single player compopnent in weeks or months

@jaytee00: the difference is that when you want to go back to a single player game, you can. When you want to go back to an online community, it's usually gone or severely cut down.

All this vehicle building would be great in a racer-shooter like Twisted Metal.

This is my favorite TNT ever.

This really looks like a fantastic game. If I had an Xbox I would download it right now.

It's such a shame that it didn't do as well as it should have. I think tying Banjo & Kazooie to it was a mistake; this is a great enough idea to be it's own IP without relying on nostalgia (which created the backlash). Though I will admit that some of that music really struck home.

At 1:22:40 is when they mentioned my tip that the gyroscope is one of the most awesome things in the game.

One of my favorite TNT's and one of my favorite games.
