The Giant Beastcast: Episode 165

Well these guys happened. Let's do it!

Jeff is on fire this week.

Edit: Two of the best trophies in gaming, in my opinion, are in Elite Dangerous:

The first felt like a real accomplishment, and the second just felt so damn good.

Congrats on 10 years!

Gremlins 2 is probably the coolest movie ever made. <3

Vinny kinda sounds like Goku.

Now my Friday can officially begin.

I'm having a downright atrocious day already and it's only 8:30 in the morning. This beastcast is sorely needed in my life at the moment. Thank you!

Last Beastcast in SC. It’s starting to sink in that the next time I listen to the Beastcast, I’ll be in a different state. Emotions, amirite? Bakalar knows what I’m talking about based on his comments this week.

You can't upload images to Dreams because Dreams is essentially a voxel engine (with splats rather than textured sides). Voxels are the (retro)future!

You can import sound via a second screen app, you can also hook up an audio interface to the PS4 to record audio at high quality for voiceovers and such. Looking forward to dreams so much. People are going to make so much bad/great stuff.

Computer games

The game Abby was describing at around 20min during the Thief of Thieves discussion sounded like CounterSpy...

I refuse to believe the kids on Full House never referred to him as "Uncle Joey". I also refuse to go confirm this one way or another.

Something to Wrestle with is a pretty good podcast that I listen too with out knowing much about the subject same as All Systems Goku

I watched black mass the other day and so that clash of clans bit was a lot more funny that it actually was. Still pretty good though. We need more Italian(?) bits

@oceanripple: I agree. I played it and enjoyed it, and it fits what Abby was describing.

I'm interested to see the differences between Sims 4 Seasons and Sims 3 seasons that justify the $40 price point. For that amount you could get a season pass with all the dlc included with most other games.

Did Alex talk about the Sony vs Blinx E3 thing on Twitter or else where? I can't imagine that no one sent the Beast Crew an email asking what happen after Jeff (G) brought it up Tuesday.

Its so weird that "Gremlins" was a huge franchise in the last 80s, but soon after Gremlins 2 in 1990 that franchise was ghosted. I cannot remember anyone talking about Gremlins again until Red Letter Media put out it scathing review of Star Wars Episode One....seven years ago. And what I mean is the actors or narrative being recalled or remembered at all. Oh, you might see a Gremlin or Gizmo in an early meme, but NEVER the actors. Ist as if the images of Gremlins or Gizmo were plucked out and everything else about those films were forgotten.

"Wait, Phoebe Cates was in Gremlins, really?" "Zach Galligan? Who the fuck is Zach Galligan because nobody by that name was ever in a huge 1980s frachines that spawned dolls, trading cards, plush toys, and fast-food tie-ins...EVER!"

My Favorite Murder is a fun podcast for morbid stuff.

Listen, the Beach Boys were iconic and innovative and I won't hear this slander!

To the guy looking for a Rhythm game to get into, or anyone else: If you have a PS4, check out DJMax Respect. It's a Korean Rhythm game series that's over a decade old, features great all-original music from all genres, and it's my all time favorite. Respect on PS4 aims to compile every one of the franchise's releases into one game. A free demo is also available, so you can try it out.

Did Alex just hint that they're doing a Mass Effect series play-through?!

(1 hour, 36 minutes, 52 seconds mark)

Adventure Time is excellent.

I love hearing more about the world of video games! Which radio station do I need to listen to to learn more about the world of video games?

@danryckert since you've got a Vive now and you're a huge fan of platformers I'd suggest the game To The Top, it's one of my favorites.

Hey, today is my birthday! Thanks for the happy birthday, Vinny!

Jeff was awfully quiet this week, you guys should stop talking so much and let that poor man get a word in now and again.

Edit and side note:

I give Dan two weeks or a month before he is bored with the Vive.

@monkeyking1969: As a fellow Redlettermedia fan I've figured out that shameless rip-offs were, and still is, a thing. If you want, or wanted, to be a bigger deal you go bigger and more crazy.

Please more Gremlins talk

Dan was like 3 and 6 years old when Robocop 1 and 2 came out. So,I think he's forgiven for not seeing them until recently.

Never been a better time

Did someone say 80's Cartoons? Also both gremlin films are a good watch.

No one insults the American Institution of greed, drugs,, lawsuits, murder, death, legendary music and legendary failure that The Beach Boys are, and gets away with it. Nobody.

One of my favorite achievements have to be the ”How d’ya like them apples..” one from Assassin’s Creed 3. It is just one that pops with the story but it was such a fun twist that seeing the name of the achievement as it popped actually gave me a good laugh.

Also; Gremlins 2 is fantastic and all this talk about it is making me want to watch it again.

Here's a link to the Kotaku story Alex mentioned about the attempt to track down the American Sailor Moon pilot, in case any of you are interested. It's a saga.

I'm so glad some of them are actually going to get into Hollow Knight! It's incredible and sorely misrepresented on GB. The quick look doesn't do it justice since it doesn't really pick up until you get a few upgrades.

@shaanyboi: My god yes! Alex’s first time play through, with Vinny on the side.

ANexus Navarro and Vinny Citadella.

Haven't listened to the pod yet and have no context... but STRONG endorse.
