I legit loved Thunder in Paradise as a kid.

Hulk Hogan + boat totally appealed to me at the time. Also I recall having a crush on his daughter in the show too. Ah to be young & carefree.

 

[Kerned]

That really is a pretty cool boat.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Are the pockets on Drew's shirt just painted on?

 

[Teddified]

Oh god this is so meta.

INTERACTIVE TELEVISION DUDES

INTERACTIVE TELEVISION™

 

[ratcliffja]

I remember when interactive movies were going to be the next big thing. I saw something on TV about how theaters would one day poll the audience for what the character should do next. Come to think of it, The Walking Dead is actually the realization of that dream but actually done well.

It's strange to think about, but there was a moment in the 90s when people actually thought this was the future. Like, serious publications predicted it etc.

I used to love this show. It came on just before Seaquest DSV.

 

[ratcliffja]

I honestly always thought Thunder in Paradise was a movie. I never saw it on TV.

 

[Zaph]

Oh my god, if I'd have gotten my hands on this game as a 10 year old, I would have thought it was the best thing ever.

I was obsessed with the whole tv show/game thing. Probably due to watching too much Knightmare.

 

[fierrotlepou]

Jeff is fuckin' funny. Djeez.

I remember seeing video mockups of what the system would look like. Every seat would have a keypad installed! It would be like having a phone at your seat in a movie theater. Could you even imagine?



On an unrelated note, can we all agree that the Zelda CD-i games are what inspired Squidbillies and other Adult Swim animation?

 

[ratcliffja]

So... this actually isn't interactive TV at all. It's more like an awful version of Sewer Shark.

Brad was losing it there.

So do we need to refresh the page, or will it just switch over to UPF automatically?

 

[Fried Food]

Make with the Drew sleep gifs

 

[ratcliffja]

I paused briefly to catch the end of the Bayonetta 2 direct... is it completely finished or are they just taking a break?

 

[Nuklear]

The FMV era was the worst era of video gaming.

Transitioning into UPF(T) for premiums.

 

[Xeteh]

Huh, chat just vanished while I was watching from about 20 minutes behind. Now I don't know if Hulk Hogan saved the day.

Yargh! Oh well.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Listening to the hottest jam ever until UPT starts

Great stream.

edit: Chat is up again

The intro to that song is the exact same intro as Pretty Green Eyes.

Thought that was Lock Down for sure. I was disappointed.

 

[NewDust]

To bad Jeff only has really shitty cd-i games, except for Burn:Cycle and Inca... Not to say there are really great games, but there are enjoyable ones: Lost Eden, Secret Mission, Christmas Country, The Apprentice, Lucky Luke: The Video game.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Everyone always covers the bad sidescrolling Zelda games with the animation.


Nobody ever covers the third top-down one with the Diablo style graphics.

 

[Lijik]

That panflute sample was in a lot of rave tunes, its also in Everyday of my Life

 

[Liamc723]

That was a fantastic stream, and now for UPF!

...there were three??

[Infinite Justice]

no UPF for me

 

[Xater]

Guys the CD-i was a real piece of shit. I remember a school friend who had one and he told me he had that Zelda game so I had to visit him and check it out. It was the first Zelda game they play ed today on the stream. After like 15 to 30 minutes I never wanted to play that piece of shit again.

 

[Lijik]

...there were three??

Zelda's Adventure was the third one and had live action cutscenes

I might be wrong on this, but I think its practically unwinnable due to the large amount of stuff in the game that was cut/unfinished but the game still expects or something

That is an insult to Diablo man. Also it had FMV cutscenes.

The only way to win any of the CD-I Zelda games is to not play them.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I missed the earlier stream how was it?

 

[bigwinnerx]

Time for Drew to run the board and Jason to hop out front.

 

[Volotaire]

I missed the earlier stream how was it?

It starts off slow, it gets much better in the middle. Overall a good stream. Some great gif moments.

 

[daydream]

I missed the earlier stream how was it?

It wasn't interactive so, kinda oldschool, I dunno. I want to PLAY my GB streams from now on.

I want it to be interactive television!

i'll be honest: i think of it as Diablo almost entirely because "Ganon" appears at the end as a rejected Diablo or Doom villain, like literally just a generic demon model that they photographed and digitized


EDIT:

behold, "ganon"

 

[Tucah]

Good. Lots of shitty games. Drew did a Brad and starting falling asleep.

I have never seen that much of this game. Sounds truly awful, but in a way that would probably e fun to watch the GB crew play.
