Unprofessional Fridays: 08/22/2014

A puppy watches on as we shun limits, gank tributes, stab not-stroggs, eat weird Irish food, and RUMBLE.

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.

Aug. 22 2014

Cast: Jeff, Brad, Danny, Drew, Dan

I'm getting a bit annoyed that no one will actually inform the other players about the spirit system.

That rollercoaster game reminded me of the terrible Rollercoaster World on PS2. It also had a CAD Rollercoaster editor, and a very poor attempt at a management game. Every single pre-built rollercoaster you got with the game had everybody dying by falling off or subjected to ridiculous G forces.

Man, I gotta find my save for WWF Attitude to see my created wrestler league. I had a dozen or so, with the constant champion being GoldCold.

A mash of Austin and Goldberg, who could defeat him???

Transformers ride didn't replace Spider-Man, but they are similar (but Spider-Man is better).

Transformers is in Universal Studios, Spider-Man is in Islands of Adventure.

The Ipad/Phone/TV wrestling thing Dan did was pretty damn great. And then the snacktime thing. And the Royal Rumble stuff.

God Damn It Joe Bruno! Putting your name on everything in the greater Tri-City region of Upstate NY, including your own Memorial (despite still being alive), just isn't enough for you. You had to go and put yourself in a mobile moba.

Dude, go to Japan and ride the Eejanaika at Fuji-Q Highland. It's basically an upgraded version, with higher numbers on all stats, like speed, height, length, inversions, etc. =D

Kind of getting annoyed with all the endorsements of chemical, horrible food. The culture around eating complete fucking garbage in gaming is one of the most off putting aspects of this whole community. Why are they hating on healthy food and defending massive corporations?

Drew's Moba is literally identical to the 3v3 mode in League of Legends... I don't know if that's a good thing...

pretty well produced though...

@czarpyotr: yeah, I'm not a very healthy eater or anything, and I'll occasionally eat garbage, but I'm not vaunting it. So I agree, the "YARRG I am such an animal, I only eat deep fried cheese balls" routine does get a bit grating.

But I also think they mostly do it for comedic value..

@6n00bkilla9: I think there's middle ground where we don't have to be dicks about healthy eating on both sides. Any advocacy for putting food in your body that is actually supposed to go in there doesn't automatically have to trigger defence mechanisms in your brain, and likewise those who advocate for healthy eating don't have to do so angrily.

It bums me out that the obesity rate is so high that taking basic care of oneself is now seen as this high and mighty act that only a minority of people partake in.

Because shitty food tastes better than healthy food.

at the end of the day this is actually true, the stuff thats terrible for you more than 95% always tastes better than the stuff thats good for you

and the stuff thats good for you in some cases are more expensive than the stuff thats bad for you.

That's a really silly thing to say, even in the Ryckert scale. Some healthy food is great some deep fried dishes taste good too. Most healthy good dishes do normally have more nuanced preparation process...the fact that you seem unwilling to try anything that takes the slightest bit of effort is your issue, but the options exist.

I also wanted to say that I really loved the coaster chat from the guys, and Dan again has been killing it with these shows. Dan has been the best thing for Giant Bomb in years IMO.

I miss this about gaming. Sitting on the couch with a bunch of friends, snacks, soda and just playing games. Miss those days.
