Thursday Night Throwdown: 06/28/12

Wtffffff

Where can I get that maggot shirt?

This is going to be fucking glorious. I love you Vinny Caravella.

This craziness, combined with a completely nuts Super Series and Forza Race Night event shortly afterwards, has given me the biggest freakin' headache.

Worth it. Totally worth it.

Also: Nice try putting a hit on me, Dave!

CHOPPED N SCREWED SON

HEY HEY YOU YOU

hhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyy hhhhhheeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyy yyyyyyyoooooooouuuuuuuuu yyyyyyyyooooooouuuuuu...

This TNT was magical.

Oh man. The attention my gamertag got really just made my night. Fucking great time, guys. Thanks for that.

It's forever stuck in my head now. ARE YOU HAPPY ?

Paradise was great, but it was no Takedown for me. 

Vinny is amazing

Avril Lavigne, chopped and screwed.

Included by default with every purchase of a NewTek TriCaster 855.

HEY HEY YOU YOU

I had to resort to Grease to get Girlfriend out of my head. So thanks for that.

Ryan must be a messy eatter if he's having problems with In-n-out. It's not nearly as bad as he says it is

Let's party

I'm impressed that they can encode a video and have it upload automatically, I am unimpressed it takes 7 hours to do that to an hour and half video.

Maybe they set it to be up at a certain time?

The last 20 minutes were magic.

Caravella magic.

First half of the TNT: "Fucking change songs stop it stop it stop it please stop it..."

Second half of the TNT: "Never change songs this is glorious oh shit a football Vinny is god..."

Maybe they figured out how to transcode on the fly.

Was bummed I missed this live. Looking forward to catching up on the excitement, sounds like it was a hell of a TNT.

I said it during the chat and I'll say it again, Vinny saved this god damn TNT. This is how it went for me:

Avril Lavigne: Fuck you guys I'm ruining this TNT!

Vinny: No!! Fuck you! I got this.

This video just cements Vinnys place as the most awesome person on staff.

Helluvagame.

Up there with the best of TNTs, glad I got to play for the majority of it.

That's a fucking GLC shirt...

I love you, Vindog.

She's, like, so whatever!

@runcrash: Well there are at least 4 separate video files that have to be made. One for each quality setting. I don't know if HTML/Streaming/Progressive all need different file types too or not, but it definitely isn't just one video file that needs to be made before it goes up on the site.

lol

Hollaback Girl was also one of those annoying(great) songs that seemed to pervade every game. Almost destroyed Lumines.

HEY HEY YOU YOU this TNT was fantastic.

1:12:00 - Kid Cudi?!

Justin McElroy covering Girlfriend, in case you haven't seen it yet.

I'm not a fan of car racing games at all, but god dammit I played the shit outa this game.

This sucks... I can't watch this because of that damn fucking song. Aaaghh.. I hate it. I hate the melody, I hate the voices, I hate the lyrics (if they can be called that) I just simply find the song offensive >:( (and I'm not usually picky about music, just that damn fucking song).. ugh.. one of the things I didn't like the Paradise was that damn fucking song. Oh well.. there is Dwarf Fortress on, so that will fill my thirst :)

I just listened to Avril Lavigne's 'Girlfriend' for an hour and a half. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

I just started playing Paradise this week for the first time in years so it's funny that it was the TNT for this week.

Try watching near the end when Vinny gets sick of it and starts messing with the music.

Call of Duty games look very behind the curve these days.

What's the first song Vinny changed for the video?

Just signed up for premium membership for the first time, this is the first premium video I watched.

Subscription justified.

I can't listen to that Avril Lavigne song any more.

I love Vinny.

God damn I love that song. This is my favorite TNT because of it.

Also, Patrick actually reading stuff from the chat was awesome. You guys need to get yourself interns.

I thought Girlfriend came out like 10 years ago. WE USED TO KICK BACK TO THEM AVRIL JAMS IN '03.

Nnnnnnnnnnnooooooo wwwwaaaaayyy

Thank you Vinny!!!
