Thursday Night Throwdown

Thursday Night Throwdown: 11/15/12

We bring our knives to a gun fight in Black Ops II, while some real cut-ups work their material in Comedy Night.

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

I gotta say the future CoD portrays seems kinda shitty, not a single experimental laser, plasma, particle, ion or rail based weapon.

Its only 13 years in the future, think back to 1999 and today isnt super crazy compared to then

I still think CoD maps look like old America's Army maps.

I still don't like the animation on the guns; firing, aiming, recoil, swapping, etc.

Pistols akimbo is the dumbest shit.

At least it seems they have somewhat fixed the sound effects and hitboxes.

Watching that first match with just knives was like seeing a particularly sinister re-enactment of West Side Story...

Id wish that Jeff was at the right and Ryan in the left on the video, it bothers me that they are not turning the right way when they are facing each other.

I havent had chance to catch up on this but I presume its just them discussing why Walt from Breaking Bad is in the game?

the blackops2 knife fight is hilarious. just grenades going off everywhere

and even more than that I love that Jeff, instead of toning it down, thinks "what would make this weirder".

Oh good lord, they are gonna play that XBLA Comedy game. The one video I watched of it was full to the brim with racism. I assume it will be the same here.

Also if anyone is interested in seeing Jeff getting slapped real damn hard, it's @ 45:51. You're welcome

Great TNT, I really enjoy a simple Jeff and Ryan show...although I do wish Will got there sooner!

They did this with a WHOLE lot more creativity than other shootbang TNTs. Monkeying with the options and talents helped immensely.

Since Jeff hasn't played The Walking Dead yet, it would be pretty cool to see a mini Endurance Run of the game as Jeff played through.

There is no auto team balance in regular MP....which sucks because you can end up on the raw end of a 1 vs 8 on any game mode, lets just say hardpoint for example.....then proceed to be violated and not enjoy the match but still want to stay because you enjoy the lobby.

Oh that's my gamertag on the screencap. Cool. And I'm staring directly into the camera, ruining the magic.

Aircraft Carriers DO have fire trucks, they just look nothing like normal fire trucks. Or... future normal fire trucks. Those bitches are big! They don't call em floating cities for shits and giggles. That said, I'm sure there are plenty small enough not to warrant it.
