Clueless Gamer: Cuphead w/ Kate Upton

Flashbacks to the fappening.

What else does Conan's audience need to know about Cuphead? I don't think the point of Clueless Gamer is to give a detailed preview of a game. Microsoft probably gave the network some money to get the game featured, and all they are expecting is Conan to hold up a box and say the name a few times.
Is not about a detailed preview. It's about the focus being on the game like it used to be.

My favorite is still the Atari one where it's just game after game being lampooned by Conan in a rapid fire succession with Aaron.
 
I really loved his Smash Bros segment because he commented on the designs of the characters a lot. Villager, Marth and Wii Fit Trainer in particular got some funny material. I feel like Cuphead also gave a lot of opportunities for him to make jokes over the art, but he just doesn't do anything here. Same as his ARMS segment - lots of potential for jokes, mostly wasted.

More jokes, less celebrity interaction, Conan! (Elijah Wood and Marshawn Lynch being the exception)
 
Kate was pretty good at the game. And she actually tried to play as best as she could.

Conan was a liability as always.

And the guys hating on her here... Why don't you try to do something meaningful with your lives?
 
Preach! The best ones were just him and Aaron. The focus was on making fun of the game.

The focus was on showing Conan playing badly. Conan making fun of the game is a bonus.

I liked this one, though more for the awkwardness than for the game.

And maybe, because of the Conan mode, they couldn't show much footage of Conan and Kate being bad at the game?
 
The failing @TeamCoco has hit a new low when it comes to ratings and my attention. Sad!

But yeah, they could've focused a lot more on the game and a lot less on Conan's awkward schtick.

I enjoyed the video - Kate played the role of the oblivious hottie pretty well. And I can't fault a video with a game and a supermodel for focusing more on the supermodel.
 
I was surprised at how witty Kate was and how natural she seemed. I haven't seen any of her movies, is she actually any good in any of them? I assumed she'd be terrible. Conan was shit in this one, didn't give her much to work with. They didn't show much of the game, either.
 
Bleh this one was really... bad. I really miss the old ones with just Aaron and Conan. Heck even the people from Conan's office would be more fun than the celebs. Seems the youtube comments suggest the same thing. Hopefully they listen as this one seems like an all time low.

Are these things rehearsed or something? She could just be uncomfortable.
 
No, there's a bunch of weapons and each has their own EX shot that uses super bar. And then there's a bunch of Supers as well. And you can equip a "charm" that gives you an added characteristic like extra health or teleporting dashes.

Very cool. The game gives me a Megaman vibe, looking forward to it.

Yes.

This, not sure why people are hating on her. She brought a little personality to the video...cuz otherwise Conan was awful in this. And he's usually good.
 
I would pay extra for DLC update to have Conan and Pimpbot as a boss. Just sayin, lol

Most bosses have phases so:

Conan → Pimpbot → Masturbating Bear → Minty the Candy Cane → Cactus Chef Playing "We Didn't Start the Fire" on the Flute
 
Stop freaking shoehorning celebrities in these things. This segment was the best with just Aaron walking Conan through the game and their chemistry. That's why the segment gained popularity. Sure include famous people if they are directly involved with the game or maybe are huge fans. Kate Upton playing Cuphead? So unfreaking necessary.
 
Any publicity is good publicity but really a bummer that they didn't show more of the game. I guess it was a bit too hardcore for Conan.
 
Super happy for MDHR, Cuphead looks to be a success.

However, it was a shame they didn't focus more on the game, and it was basically a praise-Upton party. On a side note, I don't even get the hype about her. She has big breasts and eyes, fair enough, but that's it. Imo of course. Maybe I'm just spoiled as a Norwegian.
 
Hopefully she was just playing the part because that was just cringy. I hope he just goes back to playing with Aaron.
 
Why the hell can't Conan go back to playing games with Aaron instead?

The only celeb segment that was genuinely funny was the Elijah Wood one when they played FF15.
