PAX Prime 2014: Note Cards in a Hat

I think the market is huge regardless because of the Zelda brand. It could be Solitaire/Zelda, or Wii Bowling/Zelda, or Persona/Zelda, or even Farmville/Zelda and they would still make a bucket-load of money. I think that is what some of the guys are a bit miffed about... The game probably is going to be ok, but not anything to shout about. Which bears the question, is it worth it? Financially, probably. Image wise? Probably not.

I like Dynasty Warriors and I've just gotten into Windwaker HD, so I guess I'm a part of this weird crossover market. I do wonder how big that market is even within Japan.

A Link Between Worlds is bottom tier Zelda.

I noticed that as well

Everytime there is a crowd shot I look straight at my own face, and besides the weird sense having the rare chance to look into my own eyes without using a mirror, I cringe so hard. I am a goofy fuck.

Haha yeah, I noticed that live.

@tournamentofhate: It wasn't archived because the PC build that they were planning went all pear shaped. I believe GB unarchived has it on YouTube.

At 41:00 when Jeff says "Let's hear it for pregnancy!" there's a girl next to the spotlight (pretty much the only one in the shot) and when everybody woos she does the best "nope" face and I laughed really, really hard.

Was that Solaire of Astora in the opening crowd shot?

What livestream was this where Vinny announced he was having another child?

This was awesome though, basically 2 panels in one weekend. Glad they're getting support to do more big things like this and that tour sounds so amazing. Giant Bomb's been pretty awesome lately.

If Giant Bomb did a Comedians of Comedy thing... oh man.

Woah, those mics were so crystal clear! What was the set-up?

Zelda is pretty lame and I never played any of that stuff apart from the first one.

Also, this was a good video.

Majora's Maks is a fantastic game, and Twilight Princess is my favorite Zelda game.

Also, this was a good video.

I actually agree with regarding the Zelda franchise.

I second this.

Saints Row 2 was so fuckin' good man!

Also, Crash Bash is an awesome game.

Loved this stream!

Identify yourselves!

Props to the Vlambeer shirt.

God bless you Jeff, for saying we need another Too Human game.

awesome. great event. i continue to enjoy everything the duders do since 2008. i personally think that jeff needs a vinny or ryan with him to match and play off of his charisma though. the other guys are all amazing, but jeff needs a certain type of person to compliment his energy which i dont think he has anymore. anyway, i cant wait for game of the year deliberations.

Great show! Sorry I couldn't join you duders. Maybe another time :)

PS: Alex. I want to see you bold after PAX.

I kind of think Dan would make a good addition to Bombin" the AM.

@themanwithnoplan: Oh it will, eventually.

The idea of them doing more and more non-video game stuff is super exciting to me. I can't wait.

Wonder if Jeff has listened to Logic's new track with Childish Gambino. Shit's fire, man!

I would love a stream of Vinny and Alex building a PC

I agree though sadly odds are they won't do it during the panel. While I love the awkward feeling the entire room/stream gets when a very bad question is asked I don't think I can handle it this year. I rewatched some of the past panels and when I remember what question is coming up I just have to skip it.

A GB college tour would be absolutely amazing.

Big ups to \[T]/

The question cards work so much better than the line up to a microphone format of audience questions. Very much enjoyed this tweak to the panel formula.

Nice, and kind of weird, to see GB finally getting some solid cash money support from the suits. I think what makes GB work is the mix of (generally) knowledgeable, experienced insight into and commentary on video games and the people who make them and crazy dumb nonsense. Little worried that Jeff might get carried away with just pointing a camera at dumb nonsense, but it seems like he understands that it still needs to be about video games most of the time.

Hopefully they get to go to Japan or Germany next year. Also looking forward to GB on Tour: North Korea.

Schoolboy Q "man of the year" fuck yeah jeff!

It's probably fairly accurate though, given that so many common strategies revolve around that and the relative ease to which you can succeed by doing so. People tend to take the path of least resistance quite often.

Zelda II best mechanics of all Zelda games.

Mad respect to Patrick for mentioned Link's Awakening. I love that game, it's probably one of the best Zelda games, and it is not overrated!

Twilight Princess is a terrible game, and Majora's Mask is my favorite Zelda game.

Also, this was a good video.

Giant Bomb: Road Tour. Do it. Do it now.

Hmm, copy page! http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/managed-livestream/2300-8635/

Pretty early!

Interesting to hear their thoughts on the Zelda series. I would agree that Majora's Mask is one of the best Zelda games. The original and Adventure of Link were important, but in terms of anything else, like good controls, enjoyable gameplay or interesting puzzles, every subsequent Zelda game has improved on them.

The statistic that most statistics are made up on the spot.

This was great. I was disappointed that the show didn't end with a bald Alex though.
