Quick Look: 8 to Glory - The Official Game of the PBR

I heard Cody is in this game

I've been waiting for this QL since Abby mentioned it on Beastcast

Bullshit.

Oh heck yes.

Thanks for the video! Not much to say about the game but wanted to say glad to see so many 2 person quick looks from GBE this week. I like the mix-up of the personalities when they are one on one like this. Keep it up folks!

I think Dirteater is a Cherokee name.

Because absolutely everything needs a dedicated videogame.

Fun video anyway.

I'm transfixed...

Abby whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyynice ql

Pabst Blue Ribbon has an official game?

The rider names are a bunch of bullshit, but the bull names are pure gold-plated buckles!

That is a real dude.

I'd buy this game if it was about those bulls, anthropomorphised with full cowboy gear and riding cartoonishly oversized naked men.

@smellylettuce: Correct. His grandparents on both sides (I think) were Cherokees living in Oklahoma.

Currently ranked fourth in the standings, he could earn a world championship this year. His best year was a fourth-place finish two years ago. Ryan [Dirteater] has made nearly $1.5 million since he began bull riding in 2007.

Damn, that's pretty decent cash.

Wow, this seems like a real ripoff for $30, even for legit bull-riding fans.

Seeing the bull names and photos is pretty fun at least.

@sessh: God forbid people with interests outside of your own get to see a video game version of their interests.

I've been waiting for this since it was mentioned on the Beastcast.

Minor nitpick, but who the fuck orders a list alphabetically by first name.

@percychuggs: It's a pretty stupid thing to be interested in.

Abby out here almost always playing something completely different and it's great.

Finally an official Pabst Blue Ribbon game.

This quick look feels like a throwback in the best way. They should do more quick looks of weird nonsense like this game.

@percychuggs: Seriously? My statement wasn't meant to demean people's various interests or fans of bull riding in any way.

I still stand by my opinion that not everything needs a video game, especially a poorly executed one.

I highly doubt bull riding fans will love this minigame nonesense presented in this game, but honestly what can you do with bullriding gaming wise that wouldn't turn out like this?

Pabst Blue Ribbon is not a New York beer.

I don't know, sounds like a load of bull. I can't cow to putting down some bucks on this.

Is it? I've brushed up next to Rodeo's and such all me life. I guess I could also love a Running of the Bulls official game (playing the Runner or the Bull) but I have an evil mind. Bullfighting (do they still do that?) sickens me, always has.

The cowboy/ranching ethos runs all the way from Canada down practically to the southern tip of South America. It's a culture I'm not exposed to too much, but I know of it.

This is a promising thumbnail.

I had to recover when Abby mentioned the $30 price tag on this on the Beastcast. Watching this QL it truly seems like 3 minigames with glitzy packaging... Wonder how long it'll stay at 30 bucks lol.

Bull meet rider, rider meet bull.

Turns out video games aren't actually a risky venture if they're licensed and monetized with a ton of microtransactions.

@alex: I shit you not, the Chief of Police, here, in Portland, OR is Chief Outlaw.

@bybeach: I understand it's a rich culture with a rich history, but when I see bull riding I can't help but think "boy that sure is a dumb thing to do for fun". Same with lassoing animals for entertainment. Maybe if I grew up around it I would have a different view.

And yes I believe bullfighting is still very much a thing in some countries.

soon as i saw this i new alex was here, i feel u

Can you upgrade the bull? More importantly, can I buy assless chaps and a cowboy hat for my bull?

My grandad's little brother (born in Ireland, emigrated at 14) was a bull rider for a while. Well, a bull rider and a painter & decorator. He drove a Cadillac which meant, in our eyes, he was Big Time.

All the depth and content of a Yakuza minigame.

Alex loses his damn mind at 14:18 in case you're pressed for time.

i always love a licensed shovelware quick look in the classic giant bomb style

Duluth Ga, literally my current place of residence. Assuming they were at Gwinnett Arena, aka Infinite Energy Center now. How of the Gwinnett Gladiators, I mean "Atlanta" Gladiators.

"You bite into the ball and it's just MORE BALL."

One of my fondest, earliest quote memories of The Daily Show.

Just FYI Ryan Dirteater is Cherokee through his dad.

He's leveraged the name really well apparently.

Now Chase Outlaw? He doesn't have any explanation for that.

All that for eight seconds?

Was the SHOWNUFF bull name a reference to "The Last Dragon"s the Shogun of Harlem? Did that just happen?

I've been waiting for this since they talked about it on the Beastcast.

I thought this was a F2P mobile game with them talking about booster packs and feeding cards to rank up other cards until Abby said it costs 30 dollars.

I thought it was an official Pabst Blue Ribbon game.

I bought a PBR lighter from a gas station once, that's all I got.

East Coast Quick Looks of terrible games is my drug of choice.

@eccentrix: it's run based.

I can hear Vinny go "WHOO HOO HOOOOOOOOOOO" already.
