Quick Look: The Jackbox Party Pack 8

yessssssssssssssss

🥳

Shout out to the homie Kam Konek for popping on!

@janman: <3 <3

Fergie isnt Furby . Hilarious

Its very American that they are more put off by someone who doesn't like cheese than someone who's best friend is an animatronic childs toy!

Jackbox coming out right before my Halloween party is always a huge boon.

Alright, this is the second time that I've seen Jan wearing the black and red GB New Era sweatshirt. The first time I thought I might be going crazy. Are those, uh, going on sale ever?

@noctovagus: I'm wearing the top part of the track suit!

@janman: Keep up the good work Jan, I appreciate the effort you've been putting into Giant Bomb

@janman: Ah, that makes a lot more sense! Thanks!

I've watched no fewer than 4 separate groups of streamers try to play Weapons Drawn, and nobody seemed to fully understand how the game is supposed to work. It and the wheel game both seem needlessly complicated and involved.

Job Job, on the other hand, always a hit. They nailed it with Job Job.

Yo that's my friend Kam hell yea

That was a really good question.

As a cheese-disliker I'd be down to hang out with a teeth collector. Like they must know that it's an unusual thing to do and are probably down to chitchat about it. Didn't Abby stick a bunch of teeth on a lighter once? It's clearly a better time than having to hang out with someone that dislikes contact to such an extent that they decide to befriend their toy. Now having a conversation with that person would truly feel like pulling teeth!

In every party pack there's always one game that tries to cram too much in to one game with not much of a focus.

I think this is a more playable collection as a whole compared to some other packs. Weapons Drawn probably just needs a round or two to properly get the gist of.

This fucking killed me

@bbalpert: I thought the 'Big Wheel' game was good except for the 'this or that' rapid fire questions being off screen in a streaming/audience based mode. I realise players will go through them at a different rate, but you could have multiple on screen, maybe scrolling as the periphery of the wheel like 'The Price is Right'.

That first game lost me the first couple of rounds, not least because when it was asking who has this weapon Rorie had the matching 'soccer cleats' but the actual answer was 'anvil' because Kam drew the 'spike/A' shape, I'm still not sure if that's intended or some kind of clash with the pool of suggestions.

I hate this.

Ppl giggling about a joke about something happening behind the scenes for 30min, then the joke shows up for 1/2 s and you wonder what was so funny...

Every party game, except for mount your friends and heave-ho...

The Jackbox Party Packs are always so darn hit or miss for me.

jackbox and giant bomb make me happy, thanks folx, need this
