Unprofessional Fridays: 05/29/2015

Dan's dropping gems, Jason's shooting cats, Brad's arms go analog, and Jeff's shadow lacks style. Why? Because Friday said so.

The end of the week is here! You made it! Let's sit back, relax, and close the week out in style with some video games.

May. 29 2015

Cast: Jeff, Brad, Dan, Jason

Glad that Killer Instinct is getting some more love. It's a really great fighting game.

I bought Trenched when they announced the name-change, and I just never launched it so I'd always have a copy of Trenched on my 360 HD. It shows up twice when you browse storage, once with each name.

Thank God Jeff is back. That's a man who knows when to move on to another segment.

Also, suicides are great. I remember getting hooked on those when I played little league. I disagree that Doctor Pepper overpowers the suicide. Also, Chappie was terrible. I'm not sold on the director as being as good as some people give him credit for...District 9 was good but so far that's all I've liked.

That Zombies/Pterodactyls game is pretty similar to one that came out on the PS3 quite a while ago. I can't remember the name, but it was like this only way better. There were vehicles and the stage had this interesting layered look to it that added a lot of strategy.

I haven't seen Chappie yet and I liked Elysium but it's certainly not nearly as good as District 9. With that said as a director I think Neil Blomkamp is fantastic but it's his writing that could use some work. If he was to direct someone else's script for say Halo or a comic book movie it could make for a fantastic film.

Really considering getting Iron Brigade on PC, it's a pretty good deal for 3€.

But the PC version suffers from a lot of BS. Framelocked to 30 fps, connection issues with 4 player parties and a seriously pitiful small population of players (average around 2-10 players for the last 2 years). Even with Steam sales the avg. players number barely jumped above 30 in the past..

Brad redeemed himself for last week's shitshow with that hot Trenched action -- even if he was useless in the actual game. And, in true TNT tradition, someone had to be an "I'm on the tee-vee!" jackass.

Funny to see Puzzle Fighter, I just watched the (now known for) cigs66 UPF again and Puzzle Fighter was featured prominently there as well. And apparently KI is doing cool stuff, despite notorious weirdo Dave Lang's involvement.

Iron Brigade for $3.00 and Massive Chalice for free on Xbox One next month? My cup runneth over. :-P Thanks for the heads up, dudes. Oh, and it was nice to see Brad Muir's face pop up! I wonder if he can be tricked into coming over to drink scotch and show off his crew's game on the console. Dreams, haha.

58:25 - Jeff is about to say that Iron Brigade is Double Fine's best game, but stops himself to think about it for like a full 10 seconds so he's absolutely sure, then says it. Cool moment.

So I've had this game and Psychonauts on Steam for a long time. GFWL was kind of a bummer to even boot up Iron Brigade so I plan on finishing it now. I should really play those 2 games 'cause Costume Quest is the only Double Fine game that I've finished(Brutal Legend ran out of steam for me after a few hours sadly but might get back to it).

Iron Brigade for $3.00 seems worth it even with the connection issues. The devs had already said they're working on a fix too, so hopefully that comes sooner rather than later.

Also I may have to make a gif of the guys doing their salutes.
