Top level Rorie cringe at the story of him knocking over someone's drink into their food in this one. It seems like a very Rorie move.

But look at the intensity in Brad and Rorie's eyes!

That two-player split screen for SONIC R is possibly one of the most nightmarish gaming experiences I've ever witnessed

Really wish Jason'd stop forgetting to switch back to gameplay. Happened last week during the Saturn stream too.

@emtee: Jason just needs a second video producer. Having to produce from the couch like that has got to be very tough. If someone was in the control booth they'd be watching the the output the entire time and this wouldn't happen.

It's definitely on the docket as the next hire!

I have no experience, no credentials, and am an unreliable career alcoholic that may have undiagnosed bipolar disorder. Hire me!

Lol at Brad thinking the Surge is short because it has 5 bosses and Souls games have more. IT'S NOT A SOULS GAME! It's fundamentally different in about as many ways as it is similar. There's a point where describing a thing as a ______-like is no longer useful, and the Surge is clearly beyond it.

Actually, in general I would like to decree a ban on using the Souls games as a touchstone for judging anything, with the POSSIBLE exception of other Souls games. I love that game series to death, but I am very unhappy at the idea at the idea that its flaws and limitations will be enshrined along with its good qualities as inherent to the "Souls-Like Genre" because Video Game People don't like to think about ontology.

Once you get used to UPF in 1080p it's hard to go back... Why only 720p this week?

Nemesis system would work great in roguelites. Each run would have strong enemies carry over to balance the whole gaining new upgrades that pass along.
