Very true! The western styled one was my fav!

2025-01-31 13:33:02 +0000 UTCWith Horizon going to PS5 now, it looks like we’ll get Master Chief after all. 😅

2025-01-31 05:17:22 +0000 UTCI'm siding with Gene but I'm picking GTA V as the most overated game, that online mode sucked ass at launch.

2025-01-30 23:22:52 +0000 UTCTales of the Abyss is quite good. Easily one of the best narratives in the franchise. Luke's arc reflects some of the best character development in the entire series. Having played both the PS2 original and 3DS port, I'd strongly recommend waiting for the HD remaster if you can.

2025-01-30 14:55:21 +0000 UTCI liked Gene's comment about RDR2. I get this with video games a lot and a lot of television now. Seen it before somewhere else or done elsewhere better. I suppose its just part of becoming old and cranky.

2025-01-30 14:05:34 +0000 UTCHappy to hear Gene shoutout Tabasco, I work at Frito-Lay and actually deliver to Avery Island where the Tabasco plant is. If you’re ever in south Louisiana you can tour the factory and try samples of upcoming flavors, as well as buy merch at their store.

2025-01-30 12:05:03 +0000 UTCThe funny things this episode Gene saying game grumps but I was reading at the same time and thought he said he was watching a stream of Grummz playing something on YouTube. Immediately I was like wtf why. Thought of Gene clockwork orange style being forced to watch Grummz streaming for a week straight Brad saying after Gene saying Kirby being made white again - white supremacist Kirby. Then Gene saying please don’t make Kirby white again. Then immediately after Brad saying I’ll be here for it.

2025-01-30 01:21:36 +0000 UTCIn this day and age, if you wait long enough, any and all seminal releases will get remastered. Skies of Arcadia is very exciting, but not too surprising. Now if Namco can figure out Xenosaga, that would be fantastic.

2025-01-29 20:09:21 +0000 UTCYeah not surprised there is a big Tabasco presence in Guam. Louisiana and SEA plus the pacific islands have some weird synergy where we just get along too good.

2025-01-29 19:11:59 +0000 UTCI thought I was the only one with this static issue. I thought it was my sofa. Its fucking out of control. I've had to cover it in duvets to stop it charging me up like an energiser battery
