Bony Beats?

I going to guess it's been there since the Baller Beats Quick Look. It's been a running joke over the last bunch of TNT's, if you've not been watching.

mm, no, I haven't really had time, and I haven't watched that quick look. thanks for explaining it, though :]

This Torchlight stuff is pretty boring, even if the game is fun. I'm here for the banter.

yeah, the only reason I'm still watching is tokyo jungle. I'm sure torchlight 2 is a good game, but watching the incomprehensible clusterfuck in Ryan's game got old fast.

I do have to say that the only good TNT I've seen is Dead Island. This one was just boring. Ryan may as well have not been playing a game, I was far more interested in Jeff's E-Bay shenanigans and Tokyo Jungle.

While I agree this TNT was a snooze, Dead Island is not the only good TNT...actually I hated that one at the time.

Look out Japan, Jeff is coming to raid you. Your beef bowls, TurboGrafix games, and 3 litre beers will not be safe.

I want to say it started at "Bony Hawk" for the THPS HD collection TNT... but I can't be absolutely sure.

I'd be pretty excited if the GB crew comes to Tokyo, would be awesome if I could see them somewhere here. I'm available for translation services!

Also Asahi is a pretty good pick, just gotta avoid the Happoshu.

The Hyena is a bitch to play as while unlocking the cheetah because if you mess up once you get fucked up instantly.

I survived almost 60 years with the Pomeranian. That was like Generations 4-9. Haven't even gotten to the Cheetahs yet, just unlocked the Tosa. Also, I like this two games at a time setup. Really livens up the TNTs.

@fusrodah: Green Man Gaming?

In what way are they not legit? I've used them a few time and they've been great.

What was said on the stream about them. I missed a bit.

I was too high a level to get in (level 23) and I was in ACT 2 so I'm curious to see how this went.

Those cheetahs are cheatahs!

Also the bombcrew are elitist speciest antiarachnids. In this age of enlightenment we must fight arachnophobia. Equal rights!

Greenmangaming does not sell steam codes. They sell digital games, and a lot of games are now Steamworks. Thus you get a steam key.

They are also 100% legit. Heard of them back when they gave away NecroVisioN for free last year.

@mak_wikus: I wonder how long it's been this way; I wasn't auto-downloading everything back then, just filling out my archives now and ran into this exact issue. I'll just grab the High version for posterity, bummer about ye olde encode.
