I love when hapless Dave Snider succumbs to peer pressure and does goofy shit he wouldn't usually do, good stuff.

This content is gold! Do more of these please

Personally I played this on the Dreamcast. Both back in the day and yesterday. :D Heh, surprisingly enough I'm actually enjoying myself. Already made it to Jaunpur, way past where they stopped. I like how the game rewards exploration and you actually find clues and items outside the main path. Also the combat system isn't awful for what it is. There are quite a few combos and the animation's fluid.

This is great!

Great stuff!

I hope you guys continue to do these - I've been waiting for something to happen with that fat stack of PC games ever since they arrived.

Guys am I going crazy or did they already do a video of Omnikron?

LOL Vinny

"We are gonna have the sex, the sex time"

Hahaha. I played this one Dreamcast. Well tried to anyway. Still think it's the worst game I've ever played. Will enjoy watching this nonetheless.

You have to keep going with this one! It's way more enjoyable to watch than 99% of those crapy FMV games. The story, world and mechanics go in really weird places later on that will make for comedy gold for sure.

Holy shit! Didn't expect to see this one appearing...I played the crap out of that demo back in the day, very curious to see all that again, plus some more stuff. Weekend saved!

God I wish I could put "giantbomb.ru" into my browser and what would come up would be a website from an alternate universe where Vinny, Dave, and Drew have locked everyone else out of the building and are busily filming fucking nonsense.

The wife sounds like the same voice actress that did the cop lady in Indigo Prophecy.

My question is, is this the cronjob the team uses to schedule stuff?

Glad to see Random PC back!

The world needs more Omikron.

(this and Skies of Arcadia are a two of my favorite DC games)

did Vinnie just admit to having a mesh shirt O_o

Sorry duders. I'll try my best to recreate where we were in Blade Runner. I don't sit with the editorial team, so I missed the conversation when they wiped the PC.

I would love to see this game made today. It's too rough to go back to.

YES!

Random PC game is best game. Been years since I played Omikron and I still hope Quantic will do a sequel, be it an actual one or a spiritual one.

I hope this is not the only Omikron video!

The trademark of Quantic Dream/David Cage games seems to be really awkward sex scenes.

Save Blade Runner! for the children!

when dave said Quantic Dream, i heard Quantic Dradle..... i think you will all agree David Cage should rename his company to that as soon as possible.

@snide:

Man, I remember when PC games came in weirdly shaped boxes. Merchandising those things were a pain, ugggghhhhh.

Yeah, their games do interesting things, but it's always kinda funny how he criticizes something about the medium, and then does that thing very specifically himself. Such as when he said that storytelling in games is like in porn, and then having all of their games have these very poorly introduced and awkward sex scenes, and storytelling that at best is on par with a low budget made for TV or direct to video movie from the early 90's.

Eh, I liked the storytelling in Heavy Rain well enough. It had some effective moments at least. But yeah, whenever Cage beats the drum about maturity in video games, I wonder if he even played the last three hours of Indigo Prophecy.

Weird, I bought this From UK at the time, and the box was a regular rectangle.

So sad I lost literally all my old PC game boxes. Damn you overzealous cleaning ladies !

How random!

10 Sellecks for the peep show!? In our world a single Selleck can get any woman naked at any time.

There's actually a pretty cool structure in this game.... I want a modern future cop game dammit!!

@the_ruiner: I'd say it aged better than Fahrenheit, actually.

For some reason that Ka'l guy sounds exactly like Alan Melikdjanian- Captain Disillusion.

@snide: make sure to come back to omikron though. It's my favorite random pc game so far!

Oh my god Vinny had a mesh shirt. I can't. I don't even.

Man.

I vaguely remember liking this on the Dreamcast, but damn does it look busted now. Just walking across a room looks like a chore and that UI is a nightmare.

Dammit! Blade Runner was so cool. I guess I will just play that one myself.

Not Gabriel Knight, but I'll cope. Still a fantastic choice.

This feature is why I'm a member.

5 magic rings.

4 calling birds.

3 french hens.

This was the best single game video content in a while.

sounds like what a replicant would say to hide his identity

Girl in the cover photo for the vid looks like Posh Spice

So that was a gay bar, right?

I absolutely love these!!!! PLEASE MOREE

I knew it! That prisoner at 57 minutes in is voiced by Karen Strassman, voice of Nanako in Persona 4.

The bonus to installing Omikron was that it would let you use that bitchin' future font in your word processor.

I'm going to start avoiding beverages during Giant Bomb videos. Water just shot out of my nose.

that stripper looks like a monster from parasite eve 2.

Like the freaky alpaca monsters from early in the game.

This game actually looks pretty cool. I'm a big fan of Quantic Dream's other games, so I should probably check this out.
