Quick Look: Grand Theft Auto Online, But Mostly Windjammers

fabulous

I am not surprised that this is predominantly Windjammers.

This was awesome never have i seen windjammers in my life was super cool thanks guys! GTA online hasnt worked for me yet I will try again tomorrow...

This makes me REALLY want to play windjammers.

Random videos for this Tuesday? Yes, please.

Stoked.

This was a great windjammers stream.

I love Windjammers so much, used to be a late night LAN favorite for me. Vinny's pretty damn good at it, actually. And yeah, Europe and USA get 12 points, Japan gets 15 to win.

Apparently Windjammers is a thing? Never heard of it till now!

PER SO NA

This stream was magical.

Also, I never knew about Windjammers. That game is AWESOME.

When I saw the stream name I figured it would be almost entirely Windjammers. I knew something was up when they didn't break it out for the Neo Geo stream.

Windjammers is pretty cool. Loved watching it just fir that.

Who thought a car race as the first mission and make it mandatory was a good idea.

I have never heard or seen Windjammers before today. What a fucking awesome game!

That looks amazing! GTA online looked pretty bad though. Not sure why it was added to the Windjammers Quicklook.

Go look up Crazy Power Disc Perfect its AWESOME

Vinny tried to evoke but failed. Sure was hilarious though.

KIFF-LOM-KIFF-LOM-KIFF-LOM

Thank you for this. Got my Marstonian created....then cant join session. Oh well, this and Marvel I guess.

1:26:08 Your welcome. :)

GTA Vinny looks pretty accurate.

Hmm, So many people have not been able to play at all today. I had problems for the first couple hours, but eventually it worked for me and 4 other friends, we've already put in a few hours. Its so much fun, houses are pretty expensive though. As for Vinnie not getting in, I had that weird error with people stood together, but i left it for about 10 mins and then it started.

I had to laugh. Hanging out in the parking lot, victim of La mar's Parking lot scam. All you have to do is walk into the blue spot.. Vin D go crazy later!

Never seen Wind jammers.

Windjammers is SO good.

I could watch Vinny and Jeff play this game all damn day, it was amazing to see their reactions.

Watching more Windjammers just makes me wanna play some fucking Windjammers. I would do anything for a (good) remake or at least a rerelease of that game. Can you play MAME online with people?

The closest I can think of in modern times is Lethal League, which thank god is getting a proper non-flash release in the future.

So much nostalgia. I remember when Windjammers first came to the arcade. That Neo Geo cabinet carried it with Metal Slug, Super Sidekicks, and Aero Fighters 2 iirc. Windjammers and SS definitely got the most play. It's been a trip down memory lane seeing you guys play this so many years later.

Some of the super quick deaths Vinny had were just from carbine rifles. Was that Merryweather at the docks?

Man, I wish I hadn't sold my Neo Geo CD and my copy of Windjammers.

Poor Jeffrey. All he wanted was to play some GTA Online :(

This live stuff is what kept me coming back to GB. Keep it up.

Windjammers looks fucking awesome!

Vinny's giving Jeff an ass whipping, lol.

Vinny holding up the store was, just, the best thing.

Makes me want a Windjammers Scrub League. Well, most things do...but this in particular.

Windjammers GOTY

Not sure I want to watch this, because I for some reason have it set in my mind that I don't want to watch GTA V gameplay before I play it myself.

But I also really want to watch this.

Edit: Fuck it, here we go.

Man, Lamar's tone is SUPER different if your character's a woman.

If you're a guy it's like "Hey, bro! Welcome to GTA! Let's go have some fun!"

As a woman, "Hey, baby, lets fuck! No? Psh whatever. I GUESS I'll still help you."

I mean, I suppose its true to the character but jeez.

So awesome that this wasn't a premium feature.

Yeah, there's so much premium content this week, good on them for making this available for everyone. Ah, Dark Souls today, Pathfinders(!) tomorrow.

@chrisbob:

Lamar and your charachter met through some kind of social/dating site so when youre playing as a male its for hanging out but if youre playing as a female its for hooking up.. or so Lamar thought anyway.

That's not at all how it comes off to me. He doesn't seem pissed off or anything that he got rejected. If anything, he seems like he wants to keep in touch. Is it a bit skeezy to hit on someone the first time you meet them in person? I guess, but that's very much in character for Lamar.

Why even put this video up?

@zenmastah: I understand the backstory they wrote. It just seems like a really weird choice that completely changes the tone of the intro.

I love you Windjammers.

Besides Lethal League, BaraBariBall has a similar feel to Windjammers.

Well now I HAVE to play this game!

Windjammers, that is.

This is what I come to this site for.

Windjammers is sort of the video-game equivalent to air-hockey. I wish I had that game when I was a kid.
