CONTINUE!!!!!!!!

Has anyone been able to find Orca on Google Play?

EDIT: The link was in the main menu of the game. Seems to be compatible with most devices, at least all of my Nexus devices. Here's the link.

A video game reviewer playing a video game about video game reviewers? Where's Xzibit when you need him?

FINALLY a game where i can play as Jones from Johnny Mnemonic….

Patrick's features really add a unique and fun zest to the GB Features stable. This and Bombin the AM are quickly becoming features I look forward to seeing every week.

Even though it's sad to see Patrick move off-location, it seems like it somehow opens up some space for him to do different kinds of stuff, same with Alex.

Rez really isn't long, but it isn't life-changing either. If you've played a few levels you've gotten the idea.

I absolutely love Continue? show!!!

Reminds me of Q from Street Fighter 3rd Third Strike.

Those guys are great, I've been watching their series for years now. Definitely go support them on Youtube.

Nobody attacks the home of the cheese steak and get's away with it!

I loved the Orca movie too, though I haven't seen it since I was 8 or so which is kinda sad as I hardly remember anything beyond loving the Orca and loving its vengeful ways.

Oh and my opinion @patrickklepek is don't split the show into segments. I love Giantbomb for Giantvideos, not 5-10 minute Gametrailers-esque stuff. But hey don't let others' opinions discourage you from experimenting!

@patrickklepek I kinda love the movie Orca. It's not just a straight Jaws ripoff, it's a goddamn vigilante movie with an orca as Charles Bronson, and that's a great fucking idea. It's been quite a few years since I saw it last, but didn't it have a fantastic scene where the orca attacks an helicopter?

All dolphins are toothed whales, and thus, all dolphins are whales, but not all whales are dolphins. Essentially what separates the groups are teeth and size. Dolphins are sharp and pointy, 'whales' traditionally have baleen, and porpoises have more flat, molar like teeth, even though they eat the same things as dolphins. Exceptions, however, apply. No one is prepared to call a sperm whale a dolphin, for example. There really is nothing wrong with the term 'killer whale', as it can be said they're killers, and they're whales (even though they are more specifically dolphins).

Orcas are dolphins or did someone already say that?

e: oh and loving your work Patrick.

Philly was already fucked up before the aliens got there.

@patrickklepek Personally I enjoy the lengthy video sessions, but if it's easier on you it doesn't matter to me what format you use. I understand that there are people out there who aren't willing to watch such lengthy videos, so there is that. Anyway, I love the content, duder. Grade-A work.

@patrickklepek So if I understand your idea, you'd be doing three livestreamed videos during the week, but they would all be compiled into a single video for this feature? I think I'd be up for that, I suggest trying it at least once to see how it goes.

The character in Master Spy sure does look a lot like Q from Street Fighter 3. I'd imagine that's intentional.

What is evil Patrick doing in this video? Where did that goatee come from?

I love "Continue?"! Found them through JonTron about a year ago.

That @drewbert thumbnail.

Indeed, when the level started so calmly I had no idea what I was in for.

@patrickklepek How have you not beaten Rez yet? Area 5 is hands down the best part of that game! Also the Continue? series on YouTube is a good watch. The three of them play games (mostly older stuff) and decide on whether they would actually continue the game or stop aka "game over". They just recently went through their "Fantasy Month" and played various games with a fantasy setting/vibe.

I'm so glad you played Master Spy (Greenlight page), definitely gave me a Gunpoint vibe.

Yeah, one of the best music tracks for a game that's not even released yet!

Orca looks really cool.

WAIT, a Continue Contra-style game?! LOVE THAT SHOW!

@patrickklepek specially, should get a kick that they did a video on a Michael Jordan game:

Hahahaha Oh man the continue game made it in.

Except its name pretty much actually means "whale from the realm of death". And they kill everything, not just whales.

Holy balls, the soundtrack to Master Spy? BONERS GALORE.

Don't split up Worth Playing, @patrickklepek. You will run into the same problem Totally Rad Show had: if you have 5 videos a week, that's 5 videos I could potentially not bother to watch.

Besides, if you split it up, that means that one episode might entirely be something like AssholeVania.

Unless you mean there's still going to be one video at the end of the week and you'll just be wearing a different shirt in each segment of the video. That might make it easier for you to find a few minutes each day to shoot part of the feature.

What's the link for the Orca game?

I prefer a single video with a few games, like 10-15 minutes per game, than a bunch of little videos.

'Let's attach aggressively!' is a good pull from Contra.

Philly Under Fire sold me at GET THE FUCK OUT

I think I prefer a single, long-form video than multiple bite sized livestreams. Just me, though.

I guess the person who sent in "Philly Under Fire" neglected to tell Patrick about the show it was inspired by, "Continue?" Find it on Youtube on the channel ContinueShow. It is pretty great.

I wonder if in that Contra clone you actually have 30 lives but it tells you you only have 5.

I know Continue? is a web show and they use stuff from it in that game, but i feel like big on screen text is pretty ingenious for a game. I want more of it!

The Swedish name for a Killer Whale roughly translates into Blubberstabber.

Actually I learned this year that it really should have been "Whale Killer"

I heavily prefer the term killer whale.
