Surfacing Best Of's on the site is handy when you missed a bunch of content and don't have time to catch up.

But yeah, the name is a bit unfortunate but works for YouTube.

"A lot of people who loved the first game are going to really not like it."

You would think the one good thing to come out of KS would be a decrease in demand for sequels and revived IP.

Should I get SuperHot?

I trust yalls tastes way more than the duders.

Spoiler

Still bitter about getting burned on The Witness and Stardew this year.

It's the most innovative shooter I've played in years*

*okay it's not really but it's pretty damn fun

To be honest I think apart from the styyyyyle of the story the story itself's not worth too much. But endless mode makes me happy. I want to be able to dodge around more and stuff though.

yes

 

[Rainmaker]

the person who makes the best of's also made it sound like a best of 2016's best of's was requested by fans on twitter. Nothing wrong with this at all.

It's 30 minutes long and is a cool way to cap off the year.

It's pretty short but it's really fun. That last mission in the story mode is a real bitch and tests your understanding of the mechanics to a pretty absurd degree.

 

[Xater]

Well it's basically a $20 game. Which is weird for something you can't even know what it is unless you want to ruin the surprise.

And it's Windows only. The lat one you just had to launch in a browser. It was a very low commitment.

 

[Jintor]

Superhot is the kind of game where I just need more options. more, more, more!

I enjoyed my 1 and a half hours of SuperHot more than my 20 hours of playing the Witness.

I dunno, do you like shooting and stabbing dudes in slow motion. I sure do.

 

[Twin Tails]

They still need to put out that expansion they were teasing last year.

Yes, you should. It's very short though and while it has many unlockable modes, it won't hook you in because it's the same levels just with different rules(finish the level with just punching dudes). However, if you end up loving the game you'll appreciate the new ways of finishing said levels.

 

[sixghost]

Wow! MK9 not getting into the top 10 is a huge surprise for me considering Brad AND Jeff loved it.

I know in the time that I played that game, the multiplayer basically never worked. They had this ridiculous lobby system that required you to join a chat channel, then look for a match in that channel. Most of the time you couldn't connect to the match, and the few times you actually got through, you would get disconnected sometime before it was your turn to play.

 

[kai3345]

I don't know, I think it's weird they have best of videos featured ON THEIR OWN SITE. Like, pat yourself on the back much?

It's a way to be able to pay TurboMan for the work he's been doing for years. Plus I think Jeff has said in a jar time or something that those videos have led to a large number of people getting subscriptions

 

[mnz]

Checked Steamspy/SteamDB now and I guess only about 4k people played it.
This would've maybe ended up on the most disappointing list with an earlier release...

 

[oti]

I want them to go back to the archives and do a video for every year.

In addition to what a lot of other people have said "best of" isn't inherently bragging. It's saying "here's some of the best moments we've had," and doesn't actually say anything about the objective quality of those moments.

If they had called it "Best of the internet" or something, you'd have a point.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Atleast its not as pretentious as the youtube rewind stuff

Hey remember that time this year the Rock held up a youtube button

I dont

But hes the only real star in that whole damn thing so heres the Rock holding up a button

 

[Meguro]

Man sometimes people in here get bothered by the weirdest shit.
I like the Best Of stuff. It's a fun way to revisit funny moments.

I agree. The best thing about these videos is that people could catch up content that they've missed. I assume some of us here watch everything they put out, me included so these videos don't necessarily workout for us as much as it does for the people that don't watch everything they put out.

For the people that watch everything though, it's a nice way to look back on things. A nostalgic trip if you will.

 

[Zocano]

Da fuck is this. I wasn't even complaining about the c word, just asking a question.

Going to file a formal complaint to MCGrammar because of this.

Spoiler

They really should do more game tapes tho.

 

[Tubobutts]

We can officially start complaining about lack of content again now, yes?

 

[Chuck]

What does Bread do all day?

 

[Twin Tails]

Excite for this year. Destiny 2. Raid video perhaps?

Yeah it really wouldn't surprise me if it didn't hit until Spring 2018. Activision and Bungie both know how much they need to nail Destiny 2.

 

[brainzelda]

Well to be honest none of the content they put out in the last week was subscriber only...

Oh no way. Activision just had the worst sales of Call of Duty last year that they've ever had. And music games and toys to life are dead. Activision (minus Blizzard) is in a bad way right now and absolutely must have Destiny 2 this year.

 

[The Technomancer]

Well to be honest none of the content they put out in the last week was subscriber only...

I was actually noticing how the videos from last week are normally the kind of stuff that would be Premium. Its actually a pretty good idea, I'm sure traffic to the site spikes around GOTY, a perfect time to put up videos and say "hey look what else you could be watching for $5 a month"

I'm not mad at all, its a good plan

 

[Hellsing321]

God I hope so. Not being able to complain about the lack of content for the past week was killing me inside.

Any word on if GB will talk over the switch reveal?

And content is content.

I like it. It does feel pretty satisfying getting past a tough sequence.

 

[Zornack]

Superhot is fun.

It's also $20 for ~2 hours.

 

[Twin Tails]

I got like 12hrs out of it. Finished it twice and played lots of endless mode.

People like to joke here, alot. Till you can't tell the difference.

Spoiler

You're joking, right?

 

[popo]

Geometry Wars is a really good arcade game, basically. The love is justified, but they also have some weird 360 release nostalgia for it.

Oh and Witcher 3 and my ocd might kill me:

Missing one fucking card...

There is a website where you can tick off all the cards you have and it will tell you what you are missing and who sells it.

Doesn't work for the "players of no particular renown" cards. You just have to find NPCs you missed. Oh and I did it now!

Fun fact: the game first said to me I was missing 3 cards. I then found 3 NPCs I hadn't played yet, won 3 cards....it now said I had 1 card left. I think that's when some people start throwing controllers.

free premium content idea: Brad and Jeff play through a STALKER game

 

[Tubobutts]

Yes. If only so you have less money to waste on VR.

Which actually means no so that you have even less money to waste on VR.

Yes. It's a great note to end on and Toussaint feels like a reward after hundreds of hours in the grim and decrepit world of The Witcher series.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Yes.

Yes.

That's all I needed to see!
