The First Steps

what is this. oh no

Let's go baby fish bake this snake

Great idea for a feature, Ben! More FG content is always good :D

HELL YES GET IT BEN

Ben I see your corner mixups and I respect them.

This is the perfect idea for a series. Even if it's only for the week, I absolutely loved this!

@turboman YO! I'm gonna make a person request that my most excellent of puns starting at 50:40 be considered for an episode of "Best of Giant Bomb."

Good music.

That very morose golden retriever in the windmill level is good too.

Hey @benpack, I know you don't mean anything mean by it and it's super-ingrained, but it's probably nothing but positive if more people referred to their opponent as "they" instead of "he"–especially in fighting games.

My favorite time playing any fighting game online is that time asking myself, "Am I the greatest of all time at this, or do I just know when to block?"

Also, @hawthorne: TESTIFY!

Ranking of Fighters is back, bay-bee!

Needs a live feed of Jeff watching and being upset, then it'll be a perfect series.

So I'm a Discord noob. Where can I find this GB FG scene? This video convinced me to buy the game, and I've been having a ton of fun with it.

Great idea for a series! It was fun watching you play. Here's hoping Patrick Miller is one of those guests you mentioned :D

Good luck Ben! Give 'em hell!

@hakunin: The official GB discord is here: https://discord.gg/giantbomb

It has links for all specific GB discords in there.

@cyborgx7: Thanks!

Let's get sciency.

I bought the game, but had a hard time getting into it. Glad to see it being played more seriously though. I still play MK11 almost daily and I guess that's all I can handle for myself right now.

Oh god that standing animation for the green horse. Actually, all the standing animations have that Children of the Atom/Street Fighter vs Marvel body throbbing thing going on and it's horrible to look at.

I'm really loving this, Ben! I've always played fighters pretty casually until this past year and I'm trying to get into Tekken competitively so I'm climbing the learning ladder as you are. It's really great to watch your growth, I hope you stick with it!

@zombiepie: I’ll be on the lookout
