"F*ck-diculous" - Jeff

I'm so happy Lethal League is being given a full game. Whenever me and my best friend get drunk, we usually end up playing it at the end of the night to test reaction times. The game is such a fun concept.

almost crying funny

I don't get it... There is no Fuckin' way to put an elephant in a Safeway bag!

There's no F in Way

This is by far the best UPF in a while. So much good stuff in here. I think Drew is really coming into his own recently. He's the best

Finally, Space Engine gets recognition on Giant Bomb. Thanks Drew!

Gonna put this on again for the second time before bed. You guys are nailing it. So happy to have Jason there to handle video stuff so Drew can be on camera more often. Also, Dan is a god damn trip.

As someone that has recently been playing though mass effect again recently that sudden music change was a really weird moment for me.

My first UPF, pretty fucking funny. Good stuff guys!

Kind of a bummer that Drew didn't do anything in Space Engine. That thing really is mind blowing. Hope it comes back!

I love that Dan has a seemingly endless collection of band tees.

Saw this live, and it was great. Dan was the right choice, and Drew has gone from being quiet and awkward at times to being a source of unlimited comedy gold.

Giant Beast was doing good stuff too. I was weary of the changes, but fuck me- I was way wrong.

Okay, I'm officially convinced Dan is a fifteen-year-old trapped in a thirty-year-old body.

Get that croc-OP-odile out of there!

Wonderful episode! Especially Drew's and Dan's segments this time around. I should probably start watching these more regularly again. Damn, the unprecedented elegance of those sumo guys had me audibly giggling, sitting in front of my PC alone, for a good long while.

Drew's incredulity with the lack of experiences a grown ass man like Dan has had mirrors my own.

pffth Dan doesn't need to watch Star Trek

If you look at him slouch and squinting near the monitor while playing game, it reminds me when I was in my 15 too. And that's kinda oddly charming / nostalgic.

KING OF FUCKING SPORTS

@patchmaster: And I wouldn't want it any other way! :)

Man Dan is great, brings beer gets everyone tanked and enlightens us with ultra-physics sumo wrestling. Dan has definitely been an awesome addition to the SF crew.

I especially like his herky jerk style of playing games, its fantastic.

Matt Rorie, saying Buffy Season One isn't very good... that's brought out my closet slayer nerd, nothing to be too proud of as the shows pretty girly, lol. Season one is my favourite!!! So many great one liners and stories, season two got way too lovey dovey, although still good.

Dan's laugh is infectious

Wow, Lethal League looks downright amazing. Great show this week!

Ground Control to Major Drew! Your circuit's dead! There's something wrong. Can you hear me Major Drew?!

@waffles13: You too? I PM'd him about it 2 weeks ago. Crazy.

But yeah I also probably should have told him about some of the controls.

Btw @drewbert, the viewing mode you were in when you were looking at Earth (which you enter when you open up that side panel) isn't the one where you can free-roam and land on planets, hence why it was giving you trouble. You have to close the side panel and use the in-game wiki to find Earth. Once you find it you can either SHIFT+G to go to it or just use your keys to manually move to it.

To move in normal viewing mode, I mainly just use my mouse scroll wheel to adjust speed, while using the mouse to aim and WASD keys to move. It's so awesome to just fly around galaxies.

Drew is goddamn hilarious and no one seems to notice,

"I need to get away from Brown Guy." - Dan

GiantBomb IS racist! Oh no.

@rasmoss: I like to think that they deliberately ignore Drew's humour in order to make it way funnier.

That's the best thumbnail of all time! Also, great episode.

I second this. It doesn't hurt that Dan himself loves the joke.

when's dan's joke?

Whereas I'm backpedaling.

"I've never seen a single episode of Star Trek..."

GET OUT!

Whenever @rorie talks about Enterprise I think of this video:

Wait did Rorie just make a Warhammer 40K reference?

Sumotori Dreams is great, I was surprised to see it just because it's kind of an older game. I really hope they look at Goofball Goals and/or Tricky Truck at some point. Maybe play Goofball Goals a week where Danny can be on, it is a soccer game after all, but it's definitely something everyone would enjoy. Tricky Truck in a weird way is almost like a really early predecessor to Spintires.

Lethal League, WIndjammers and Gang Beasts are the UPF MVPs.

I don't know if anyone besides dan and rorie even used supers, because the ball biting and sonata's boom blaster special are all I noticed, but the crocodile seems pretty OP, especially once the ball really gets moving. Shouldn't be able to move around like that, or there should be a power up freeze when it's released.

It's amazing how Dan and Jeff are a lot alike in many ways like their bland food choices and their knowledge and love for retro games, but they are also different from each other in many other ways as well like when it comes to certain games.

Drew you have an unmatched ability to make me laugh and smile.

Will that GBeast stream be up at some point? Missed it live.

This UPF delivers

Also, nice Space Balls reference in the subtitle!

5:26

dat Contact reference!

I really hope Insterstellar is even better.

OFCOURSE drew has 4 pages of notes

Managed Livestream is my favorite internet
