I can't stop saying Fisticle since i heard the name of this game. I really like the kind of retroish soft edges in this game.

O Dan, you and your ignorance is bliss approach to food and the questioning of anyone who doesn't exclusively live on processed fats, sugars and salts as being "fancy". I feel like there is some sort of Alien abduction/Coma/Time travel story straight from the 90's we are missing here. We all changed Dan, but you are keeping the 90's alive somehow with your eternal optimism and unwavering patriotism. I salute you.

After all the kerfuffle over Metro this seems like a different Dan. I'm liking Different Dan...

I do have to say that Dan has improved his Quick Look technique. I still cringe whenever he starts with his "fancy lad" thing =_=

Brad's million dollar idea is basically the Thanksgiving episode in the first season of The Boondocks (titled "The Itis") in which Granddad opens a soul food restaurant where you eat on a bed, so you can fall asleep right after you're done.

After that steak discussion I think I'd really like to see Dan have a chat with Karl Pilkington. They could exchange their bizarre invention ideas.

If this were to come out on, say, Vita I'd probably buy and play it. Looks cool.

I don't think I'd find this game as amusing without Brad and Dan talking about foodstuff on top of it.

I think I used to play this game in grade school. You started by asking the other player to name the capital of Thailand.

why not go the whole way and have them chew the food for you or just blend it up into an IV like deal and have it pumped in?

Hey Dan, would you use these at your restaurant? You could call it Mommy's.

Though I gotta say, I hate hearin' yang about DQ's hot eats. @danryckert You should really try a DQ burger. I don't know if they're the same as in Canada but DQ burgers are awesome.

I don't think I have ever heard of a person with more disgusting eating habits than Dan. I think the extent of my fast food consumption is a Subway once (Shrimp Avocado sandwich). The idea of actually choosing to eat that shit boggles my mind.

Anyway, this game looks alright for about $8 or so. I'd consider it

I'm crazily speculating that this game was going to be called Iron Fist, but since Marvel owns a character with that name, they went with Fisticle.

Great minds think alike. Me and an ex had the same idea as @brad regarding his "Sleep after Eating" room. You sell the food at decent prices, but you rent out the sleeping area for a good price. Who wouldn't want to take a short nap after a meal?

Apparently Dan has never heard of Japanese Steakhouses. They literally cut up your steak into bite-sized pieces when they serve it.

Could be a regional thing, man DQ was the dodgiest of all places to get a burger where i was living in Canada.

I just realized Dan is Homer Simpson. The steak cutting idea is hilarious.

Also, let's not be crazy. In-N-Out is much better than 5 Guys.

I think most of what Dan says is pretty bonkers (albeit in an endearing way), but that steak cutting idea is something I am totally on board with.

In my humble opinion, anyone who thinks this should consider just sticking to hamburgers :P

I don't disagree. :3 I am horrible with knives, absolutely dangerous.

I do love a good steak from time to time, however, and would prefer not to cause myself to bleed at a steakhouse!
