Demo Derby: Official PlayStation Magazine: Issue 59

I'm here for demonstrations!

The hitboxes on Britney are absurd.

I'm here for derbistrations!

Also Jan, write the lyrics to my life.

.....GBWest needs to get schooled on Funny Animals.

I shouted out loud "OH NO!" and laughed when Kingdom Hearts showed up in the menu.

The art from Britney's son that Ben mentioned is inspired by Dragon Ball Super. Seems like the perfect opportunity for a crossover.

CLICK CLICK BOOOOM

Britney's Dance Beat was made by the Bust a Groove devs and it really shows, the game seems really competently made for a licensed pop music game thing. At least compared to the notoriously awful American Idol game around the same time.

Okay, Jar Jar R Martin is the joke of the week

PeeWee Kirklan. The greatest street baller.

Brad how dare you call Richard D James an antiquated musician, he’s still putting out great music. Syro was one of the most interesting albums of 2014.

But yeah dude seems pretty normal irl, the creepy image is just for show.

Edward Penishands is a great movie, I will fight anyone on this.

If you want to listen to Jeff singing Britney Spears' "Baby One More Time", there's not one but TWO clips of him singing it:

The nostalgia from Street Hoops was almost too much. I spent far, far too much of my youth studying the And 1 mixtapes and learning how to do everything in them to perfection, with the exception of not being able to dunk. Even that dumbass Slip n' Slide thing from NBA Street. There was a time when Hot Sauce was bigger than Jordan for me. Looking back, I lament just how much of my youth was spent devoted to ball handling (heh.)

Shaquille O'Neal has played at least one pick-up game.

It was an embarrassing loss to Aaron Carter

hell yeah

New Demo Derby and the underwater menu theme is back! The underwater menu in these demos are oddly relaxing. Also now we get a DD with Britney Spears and Kingdom Hearts. Perfect!

EDIT: Wait, is that Britney Spears game just a Spears coated Bust a Groove?

Junkie XL is still very big today.

He does a lot of movies as well such as Mad Max Fury road.

simple and clean is the wayyyyyyyy that you're making me feel tonight.....

so good

DOUBLE CAN

Wow, I never knew Sled Storm existed and now I must buy it...

Hell yeah, back from the lame Xbox demos to the DIESEL Playstation ones!

This was a great episode, though that threadz section was severely lacking.

Also that Fight Club thing was pretty terrible, though at least it was recognizable, because the intro animation with the fake Dust Brothers song made me immediately think "Is this some odd Fight Club parody...?"

Surprise Yu Suzuki!

It's crazy that I knew all the lyrics to that Britney Spears' song when I haven't heard that song in years

You're great Ben, but sometimes you try too hard to extend a joke longer than it needs to go.

Action Button? Did Tim Rogers work on this game?

I wonder if 415 studios went bust

No joke, I just literally bought a copy of Britney's Dance Beat after watching this video. $3 on eBay with free shipping.

"DBZ Jiu Jitsu? It can't be that."

It actually is. That guy's a big Dragon Ball nerd. He would do the kamehameha pose during his victory celebrations.

I let the bassline get me, and brother, I haven't been the same since.

Edit: Thank you for making me look up that Black Angus bit, @brad. Holy hot damn, that was funny.

It's just fun to see the rats with the guns.

God damn, so that was what it was, it was there for half a second and I could not go back and stop it at that time stamp. I thought one of the guys edited Ben in to it for a moment.

P!nk is WAY better than Christina and Britney and I don’t think showing a base level of competents as a parent makes BS a good mom that’s absurd brownie pointing

Stuntman is a fun game. Fairly good physics/control. You do need to be good at driving games though.

I actually played the X360 sequel for like 5 seconds a couple weeks ago and good lord that one sucks.

Junkie XL is the Doof Warrior:

Who's your mommy?

Aphex Twin and Giantbomb. Two of my favorite interests have converged!

Never seen or heard of this before.. What in the unholy fuck did I just watch and listen to? Jesus.. shit is scary.

Britney Spears was my first celebrity crush. That is all.

Ben kills GB West. Pretty poetic.

Back in around 2015, I had just lost my job and was living in my parents' basement when I found Britney's Dance Beat at a thrift store. I beat it in a desperate attempt to gain any sort of control over my life.

Today, I have a decent job and my own apartment. Britney's Dance Beat saves lives.

Oh, no! They got the Ben Drowned version of the Freekstyle demo. Now they're all cursed.

@sainthuck: how dare jeff call him creepy

ha brad bringing up aphex reminds me of his latest stuff.

not too shabby for an antiquated electronic artist

@seikenfreak: The music video was directed by Chris Cunningham who is a crazy talented director and special effects guy. He also did the music video for Björk’s All Is Full Of Love with the robot ladies making out amongst others.

RDJ’s music is really versatile. People tend to only know about his creepy music videos and harsh sounding tracks but he’s also made some of the most calming ambient music I’ve ever heard.

That IS Mean Gene in Sled Storm! I came across an IGN story that mentioned it.

This makes me want a spin off of Ranking of Fighters where they rank all rhythm games, good and bad.

ben's and jeff's weird ironic allusion to kingdom heartache and then brad just taking it seriously
