Thursday Night Throwdown: 10/09/2013

Nostalgia Activate!

HANDS OF FIRE

I feel about ten pounds lighter.

FOUR TIMES

What is even going on

What is even going on tho?

What is love really?

I hadn't heard of Strife before seeing this. It looks really interesting.

What is even going on

no gniog neve si tahW

Quoted for TRUTH!

But what is even going on you guys.

Is it the future?

What's all this now?

Alright guys I'm back from the future and I figured out what's going on: invest all your money into taco stocks. Trust me.

Jeff ends up becoming a millionaire on that Del Taco place doesn't he?

Sorry, but that was a pretty boring TNT this week.

ok legacy of kain seems to have just shown up on greenman, is this just an odd coincidence??

Why is the site's video streaming so horrible?

No idea. It really sucks.

the dead weeks are the best weeks

The first few frames of the video are my favorite.

Glad I'm not the only one! I thought things have gotten worse in that regard...

Holy Crap. Strife. One of my favorite Doom derivatives. Played the demo for hours and I actually still own the CD for that game! Good times.

Jeez my birthday really snuck up on me this year!

Man, Brad's Quake elitism still bums me out.

I would love to see a modern weaponized Chex game.

I want to see Brutal Chex Quest

October 9th already? Time sure flies.

Seems like it's dropped off for me too in the last 3 weeks or so

I could listen to them wax nostalgic over classic shooters all day.

Also, +1 to Heretic 2 being a semi-forgotten gem.

Oh god...

Fuck you Patrick, Chex are great and so is Chex Quest!

This video is from the FUTURE. Like 5 months from now.

Shadow Warrior is awesome, even if it was racist enough to even make little 7 year old me (Actually, probably younger. Yeah, my parents are excellent at parenting) uncomfortable.

Glad to hear positive stuff about the new ROTT, I expected the response to that at Giant Bomb to be a little tepid at best. Super pumped for it. Drunken missiles motherfuckers!

Rocket launchers do suck in games these days. They are usually pretty lacking these days. You know what game really nails rocket launchers? ArmA. They actually move at a reasonable speed. It's awesome to see a rocket just flash across a field to hit a target.

Was Brad playing Tomodachi Collection?

Edit: OH MAN IT'S ANIMAL CROSSING ISN'T IT! I'M SO JEALOUS!

sickedwick tnt

Word.

Best TNT ever.

Man was I looking forward to this....I don't know what happened.

TNT 10/09/2013 ? i went to sleep and May and awoke in OCTOBER? wait, that really doesn't seem so bad...

I can't get this to buffer properly :/ (Progressive HD, latest Chrome, uhh... Germany, cable connection etc). Progressive has been the most stable option for me, before and after the re-design. I don't like the looks of this.

meh

I love obscure features like Zandronium - I find those very interesting because gameplay of the newest AAA games can be found everywhere.

About killing people who chat: When I played UT99 like a crazy man back in the days the regulars never killed people who chat. It was a norm in the spirit of fair sportsmanship. I kinda liked it. The manners were much better as well. Everyone would say "gl&hf" and "gg" and there was very little bitching about, though you could be called a Flak Monkey or sth. ;). It's in general just part of a multiplayer gaming culture which has changed alot.

What is even going on guys. What is even going on.

Also, Brad and Rorie are dead wrong, Quake 2 is amazing.
