Unprofessional Fridays: 01/17/2014

=) Superb!

The chat and stream crapped out on me near the end of Viva Pinata, glad I can finally finish this

Yay!

I really want a next gen Viva Pinata but I know MS won't greenlight it.

Jeff is looking hotter than usual in this.

Thanks y'alls.

@seamuspaxman: It's the beard factor, yo.

That death stare from Drew cracked me up!

@somedelicook: It's great how fast these go up after they finish these days.

All right! These always go up super quick. I can finally watch the thing that makes me giddily anticipate Fridays.

Anyone else getting weird stuttering with the html5 player?

Yes, it is so bad I have to use progressive now. I thought it was because a game had a poor frame rate, but then I saw it happening all the time. Quite annoying.

Ok, so it is not just me. Has anyone else mentioned this, @rorie?

Goldeneye is great and all, but my favorite Rare game is Banjo Tooie.

We'll have an entirely new player next week, so hopefully that will resolve the issues. If not, we'll start filing bugzzzz

Rare? Obligatory depressing video:

No stuttering for me. But it's like aliased or something. Which I'm not sure makes any sense.

Ok, sounds good. Thanks!

That non-Uncharted game makes me want to play Uncharted again

I forgot that no Ian means Vinny has to man the control room :(

Watching Brad fuck up the beginning of Viva Pinata is INSANE TO ME!

Brad complains he doesn't know what to do. Hint window pops up that he immediately closes. Brad still doesn't know what to do. Hint window pops up that he immediately closes. Brad still complains he doesn't know what to do.

Achievement Unlocked: Bad At Games.

A Viva Pinata with Kinect could potentially be really fun. They could sell stuffed animals which when held up to the camera unlock special pinatas.

Maaaaaan I don't get why some people here were wanting a quick look of that Ali Baba game.

It's so turribad! And not in a hilarious way like Ride to Hell.

Hmmm, I guess I prefer Vinny in the control room instead of in front of the camera. I miss his tricaster antics so much!

Did anyone else notice brad being a d bag? for instance looses then blames the place and how he didn't get his foothold on the game. Looses again and complains about something else on why he loss. When he wins though, Total victory, he is the best player in the world......... I just don't understand why there is all this hate on Patrick when we all know who the real problem is. lol damn he makes me so angry

Holy shit, Sportsfriends makes any video just amazing! This was one of the best videos in a while! I think with Towerfall, Samurai Gunn, Nidhogg, Sportsfriends, and the eternal Windjammers, videos of games played by these guys are going to get much more fun!

Anyone have trouble watching videos on the site with their PS4? Audio out of sync?

I'm conflicted. On one hand I like to see Vinny on the couch, but on the other hand he's a god damn force to be reckoned with in that control room.

So many amazing local onky games coming out lately. If only it were still the 90s :(

Well, that is pretty loose. Hopefully he tightens up.

prince?

brad's awesome stfu

Anybody else was glad to hear Jeff's Battletoads hate? I don't even remember those games being that well liked at the time, just frustrating imbalanced and having weirdly bad controls. It sort of got reclaimed as "NES hard" later, when it was actually an outlier.

I hate that Vinny is in the control room, but I love that Vinny is in the control room.

Dat Sex.

That pole vaulting game looks like insane fun, but the bari ball game got boring to watch after the first match. Maybe it's the lack of music.

@robotmafia: Also Rare is a shell of its former self.

I would totally go for a great Viva Pinata Xbone game, though it would be so much more as a full-fledged PC game.

Sports Friends is looking more and more like the ultimate local multiplayer / party game. I hope it stays fun over time.

Brad's beard getting gray/white, you old man.

Why is it that everytime I'm genuinely enjoying the stream (as opposed to having it run in the background), this time being during the Uncharted ripoff segment, they all of a sudden "can't take it anymore" and have to cut it short? Major bummer.

i didn't realise someone could like Viva Piñata soo much

European people got other standards regarding video games Brad? That's kinda hurtful when you are playing Unearthed...

@unobviouscures: lol, that's your definition of a d bag? Come on.

I agree with Vinny, Drew is SEX.

Drew seems more comfortable these days, it's cool.

Control room Vinny is best Vinny

Whoa. Careful there, buddy. Vinny's great in the control room, but I definitely prefer him on the couch with a mic.

Rorie lost years off of his life because of that. I think Drew was about to "activate" but safety protocols kicked in and his weapons systems were kept in safe mode.
