Beast, Inc.

So many memories with this game. My friends and I had a Cube in our post-college ( but still pretty crappy and cheap ) housing. So many great game nights.

Nice Strugill Simpson call out Alex :)

East is continuing to impress this week, even without Vinny. Dan continues to mesh with the East coast in a way I wasn't sure would translate without Jeff to be his counterpart. Alex has been growing on me over the last few years and continues to nail it, Abby's overacting is quickly becoming one of my favourite bits and Danika continues a traditon of Waypoint staff being great on GB streams...AND she's got feet.

Vinny your office was left in good hands this week!

Danka? Bitte!

If you're gonna go wandering through the hives, don't come near me with your bee stink. You might have to say it out loud.

I was gonna do a Danka joke, but I couldn't face the Danka shame, darling; Danka shame.

Danika is a cutey and I will fight whoever disagrees

DOG DOG DOG DOG DOG

Haha. Yea. Seems like it was getting into it early, but; Beckham's scotch is gimmicky sludge mostly, though if you dislike scotch it's probably more approachable than many. Also, Single Barrel means the whisky/whiskey/scotch in the bottle is from a single barrel, and tastes however that barrel numbered on the bottle tasted. Those unfamiliar with the labelling (and a great many who are, such as myself honestly) won't tell much difference between that and the regular bottling, but if you ever want to put yourself through a ringer, find yourself a cheap side-by-side of something like Evan Williams Bottled in Bond and Evan Williams Single Barrel. Both are from the same distillate, but one is an "ideal blend" meant to imply consistency and regularity while the other is "just" whatever was in the barrel when they bottled it.

(Obviously none of this is a note for you, fragglerock1, I'm just saying.)

A general rule of thumb, Beasties, is that Single Barrel is more expensive by $3-$10 or more by the bottle, and can technically be more of a wild card, but it is mostly useful for people who like to sit at their home bars with three good friends and do whiskey verticals, ie. Single Barrel 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 of whatever whiskey you've chosen to deep dive on. When compared side to side with the bottled-in-bond, or non-vintage, or generally simply "this is a whiskey" whiskey, it takes quite a refined and experienced palette to find the value in a barrel statement versus the "generic" bottling. This is in some ways the antithesis to year statements ie. Elijah Craig Small Batch - meaning hand selected blend, rather than absolutely anything from that year of production, but still not a single barrel - versus Elijah Craig 18 year - again, still a blend, but of a much smaller selection of qualified whiskies aged a very discriminate period of time, and thus the difference is far more stark than the aforementioned Evan Williams example, because age for barrel-aged corn/rye/barley based spirits is almost all of it, whereas vintage is often a matter of preference.

I know this was a cheap, cobbled together version of the GBA game, but man, I had some good times with this one.

GB East, sponsored by Nintendo and WWE.

Great game and great stream

This game holds so many cherished memories from my teenage years, it was and is a beautiful game.

Wow, that's not even a little bit correct. I will never understand people who offer their "expertise" when they apparently have no idea what they're talking about. If you wanted to answer the question so bad, why not just google it beforehand?

Danka Harad as Austin would say.

I'm surprised none of them knew/recognized reversi

This was fantastic, makes me really want a new Wario Ware on Switch.

Abby at 44:30 (gif in a spoiler block to keep the page from bogging down, assuming that helps any)

I never expected to hear Dan say "I can't gloat too much."

Played this to death as a kid and not-so-young kid. So many happy memories. Now Nintendo, make one for the bloody Switch.

99% of the time I have no issues with his shenanigans, and I wanna be tolerant on how people want to drink things. But oh my god it always hurts. It huuuuuuurts

East crew, I absolutely love your creativity and enthusiasm every stream. All the Nintendo love lately is super appreciated. This resub is for you <3

The "flower" is a butthole isn't it?

Danika content is always good content.

“arrest me bitch” - abby from brooklyn

Fantastic stream, y’all. Had a blast watching this one.

This was a fantastic one. Dan is the content king.

@fragglerock1: am scottish, can confirm. In fairness, Haig Club isn't a nice whisky, at all, so at least it isn't Laphroaig or Jura or something, but man that stuff is expensive though to mix with soft drinks.

Quality stream!

Danika's the best.

Freitza got FEET, though.

To answer the question, the "most famous" scotch is almost certainly Johnny Walker. Other well known scotches are Glenlivet, Ballantine's, Macallan, and Dewar's.

Also, scotch is gross.

Abby bobbing her shoulders in time with the music during the first part while her face has a big, stupid grin plastered all over it is shockingly cute.

@welding: Please. Her name is Danka.

Danika reminds me I should visit Waypoint more often, but sadly I continue to be about two weeks behind on all the GB stuff, so I don't really have time for another gaming website in my life right now. Oh well...

Weird. The videos have 8000 at the end now instead of 4000 on the HD links/downloads. Does this mean they're starting to get ready for 4k, or is this a mix up?

Who could say? I'm just gonna start a rumor.

@cornbredx: Try 9001 lololol

Hopefully they take this upcoming WarioWare release on 3DS and make a Switch version (WarioWare Platinum? Diamond?) that has all the cool party mode stuff like this.

A single barrel whisky is one that has been bottled from a single barrel. I say bottled because the whisky could haven been aged in multiple barrels as well(i.e. could have started in fresh oak, then transferred and finished in a different sherry barrel). It's even the case that some distilleries may combine multiple of their barrels before distributing it among several finishing barrels. They then bottle from those individual finishing barrels and label and sell the product as single barrel/cask. That is seen as a controversial practice by some, but is perfectly legal, as I understand.

"Single malt" primarily means the whisky was distilled by a single distillery, but use of the term also requires the whisky be distilled from malted barley, and aged at least 3 years in Scotland.

"Blended malt" is a blend of various single malts from more than 1 distillery(which can still be excellent whisky).

"Blended Scotch whisky" is the stuff you want to stay away from, as the malt whisky has been blended with non-malt whisky, and possibly neutral grain spirits(which is basically vodka).

They should have included a screen protector in the case with Touched. That game royally destroyed my DS.

Really enjoyed this video, thanks guys.

That was a lot of fun

Danka Harrod? Isn't she Danika?

Because "danka" means something a whoooole lot different in Slovene. :)

This was a fantastic stream. Love GBE's enthusiasm and creativity.

Danika's laugh makes me want to live.

Haha, this was so hilarious and fun! Never seen or played Wario Ware stuff, this seems so awesome for parties :D

Yup, that's a b-hole alright.

@tr0n: I'm guessing a five character limit on the names.

@mak_wikus: I believe it's Abby's friend who she tweets about a lot. May be mistaken.
