Yeah, that was such a bummer that they stopped. Their "endurance run" of the first Condemned game is among one of my favorite series on Youtube.

I don't understand how they are soooo dismissive of games like God of War which come out with a brand new game ever 3 years. But "Saints Row 4... yah they have the benefit of doubt" when it is basically a glorified expansion pack made into a game. I'm not bashing those games, I like them lot, but it is clear the staff on this website do not stick to there guns when it comes to how they base there judgmenets on something.

Or they are like normal human beings and vary their judgments from case to case based on a wide variety of impulses and past experiences.

Really weird that the reticule didn't work in Descent 2 with trackIR when Drew played.

Original DOS Descent had support for several kinds of VR headsets with head tracking, and in them the reticule would still point where your shots would land, while allowing you to look behind you.

Case in point, this video of Descent 1.0 with a Cybermaxx VR helmet:

Edit: Well, i guess he says full headtracking support was removed in version 1.04, but that stuff should still be in the source code that the source ports used, weird that they haven't reimplemented it after nearly 20 years.

I tried to play the x-files game on PC a year ago and ran into many glitches. You can get the game on PS1 and it is totally playable. The movies and backgrounds are lower resolution, but there might be some other things missing as well because the PS1 version is 4 discs while the PC version is 7 discs.

Anyone get the impression Ryan was pissed off and/or annoyed, more so than usual? Maybe he's still sick or maybe he's still miffed from when Jeff told him to shut up on TNT.

I had the craziest weekend so I'm only just now watching this, but:

SKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE. <3

My favorite game series of all time, precisely because of the feel and the purity Jeff and Patrick talked about.

There needs to be a name for Drew games (ie. Dave Snider's Eastern Bloc Games).

Great show as usual, but Chivalry deserves some props for how it does first person melee.

@patrickklepek or how ever you do to tag "the real" Patrick klapek, if you want to play games that are older then windows 7, try to ctrl + shift + escape and kill the processor for explorer.exe and the graphics should be fine.. also you should see the inventory bar.

Over a year ago, but just as entertaining. Miss you, Ryan.

Also Brad telling everyone Lil Wayne died at around 1:54:30. Thanks, Brad.

Watching the Resident Evil 7 QL reminded me of Condemned, and this was the only video for Condemned 2. Ah Ryan... pursued by a bear.

Heh, this was during the post-Phantom Pain, pre-Metal Gear unveiling. What a weird, fun time that was. That's rad.
