Quick Look: Game Room for 09/15/10

VIOLENCE

Better to stick with MAME or SCUMM or whatever free emulators on the PC are out these days.
 
edit: What a waste of $10!

Videos like this are exactly why I love Giant Bomb.

Someone put gameroom out of its misery!

THIS is what I expected Gameroom to be.
Just that they are arcade games in SOME form rather than really old console games is what I have dreamed of for months.

This only confirms that we need a sonic adventure endurance run. =D

Oh, the opening to this video is just fantastic.

Poor Jeff, I guess nostalgia ain't what it used to be.  
I remember skies of Arcadia and Alien Front Online being pretty kick ass for the Dreamcast.

Have your say here...

Oh no! I messed it up, but yes this video is everything I needed

Who would have thought? Microsoft actually released a few actual arcade games on Game Room. This is what I want. This is what I need.

HAHA! I laughed so loud at the start of this video... I scared my cat.

y'know, I don't hate Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, even though I guess I should.  I mean, they're not great... or even good in most places, but for some reason I can still enjoy it on some level.
 
But for $10, no thanks. *sheesh*

That intro was hilarious. Awesome reaction Ryan Haha

$10 for dreamcast games is just plain greedy

Fun Quick Look, thanks guys!

AAAAaand this is why I love GB.  And also that I've never paid for Sonic Adventure.

" HAHA! I laughed so loud at the start of this video... I scared my cat. "

" I admit, I really liked Sonic Adventure 2. Not the first one, but the second. I can't explain it, but I really do love that game, and it's the only 3D Sonic game that I even remotely like. "

REMEMBER GAME ROOM!
...for what it was supposed to be...

Awesome week for Game Room.  Both of those games look playable and entertaining.  Color me amazed.
 
Also, I love Sonic Adventure, despite Ryan's burning hatred.

Ok, i'm gonna be that guy...
Start doing Dreamcast quicklooks!
 
...there, i said it

" Ok, i'm gonna be that guy... Start doing Dreamcast quicklooks!  ...there, i said it "

Why Jeff didn't just download the demo for Sonic Adventure, I do not understand. Such an awful game.

ROFL

Still the best Game Room Quick Look. 

Sonic Adventure isn't THAT bad. I kinda like it.

Mmmaaannn Sonic SUCKS.

The best intro of all the game room quicklooks. That reaction is priceless.

Wait, they had a Spec Ops: The Line demo back then? Over a year and a half ago?

Thank gods this video was listed in the Sonic article, couldn't have remembered it otherwise. I remember being pleasantly surprised the first time I saw this QL. Of course, even back then Sonic looked terribad. Or well, actiony parts are kinda-sorta-ok, but that adventuring...sweet jeebus, so bad. Together with the whole "he's in our world now". Bunch of BS...and that music, AAARGH!!1

weird. they got rid of that terrible "I wanna fly-y" song when they first show tails.  Were they not able to license that shit song? 
 
EDIT: Take it back.  There it is.  mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......

I use to watch the shit out of that Sonic Adventure intro back in the day

I agree with @Jeff, Sonic Adventure was terrible.

"Space Invaders is an old game...dot com..."

This is an old, old comment, so I don't know if replying to it will be of any worth whatsoever. With that said, I think there was a pretty early Spec Ops: The Line multiplayer beta or something. I remember trying to get in with no success, but I knew someone who was in and didn't have great things to say about it. I wonder if the feedback on that thing was negative enough to push the game back for improvements... not that the final product was received as a super well-playing game anyway.

This is one of my favorite Quick Looks ever. So many great moments.

I have tidings from the future:

I'm here before the 10 year anniversary of this video because I am watching all the Game Room Quick Looks because I've walked less than 1 mile in 3 weeks because of the pandemic help I don't wanna go outside there was a tornado warning at 12:30am tonight.

That cat is saying "Yoshi" when picking up a key I swear it.

I can't believe Sonic Adventure came to Microsoft Game Room in 2010.

Oh the things we forget.
