It's Thursday night and it's time for you to go up against us in a weekly throwdown of decidedly humble proportions.

This was an awesome show even if it was such a disaster. TNT should be hosted by Dave and Vinny once a month!


Agreed. Even screwing up these guys present something else than the usual fare. That flight stick setup is awesome(one of the few times I will use that word). 
 
Pleeeeeaaases play X-com, trying to learn that game.....

I like Tribes, but I wasn't looking forward to watching it for two hours, Only shooters I like to watch are big, vehicle-based things open to chaos (Halo, Battlefield, etc.).

So the crappy way this turned out... kind of awesome.

Great how this TNT turned out. Not quite at the level of the "Cards Against Humanity" or "Iron Brigade" TNTs, but definitely up there. I'm also going to voice my approval to a Crusader Kings TNT.

That wasn't bad considering they where doing it with a skeleton crew and all the Crusader Kings problems.

I liked Vietcong a lot as well as its unfortunately named prequel expansion "Fist Alpha". The campaign was fun even if it was derived from popular Vietnam movies (more direct movie influence was quite popular at the time). One level you spent like the whole time in a small cramped vietcong tunnel, and you were glad when you finally emerged from it. The second game wasn't so good.

I liked when Vinny had to shield his face from the 'heat' of Dave, that part hilarious.

I'm with Dave. I think if they got a game working properly, Crusader Kings II would make a really fun TNT. This was still a really fun TNT regardless, and I'm super grateful to Vinny, Dave and the rest of the crew who were present this past Thursday for putting on the show when they certainly didn't have to.

I love how this TNT just sort of slowly disintegrates as time passes.
