Clueless Gamer with Conan O'Brien

You can't play those games with a buddy and camera on you while talking and expect them to be scary. I'm sure they knew that, but it would have been funny if they just locked Conan in a room alone to play Slender or something.

He wouldn't know of how to play it.
 
They broadcast this on his show? That had some pretty graphic images, and... american Tv...

He's late night and not on a broadcast network. The Walking Dead is on a regular ass non-broadcast channel as well and that shows worse stuff and more realistically.
 
Not really, but it was pretty fucking funny.

This, he just likes Outlast the best because that has the best graphics and it has stuff happen constantly, while Slender and Amnesia are much slower burns.

The videos are funny but you're not supposed to take them seriously as reviews. They're just some very surface level impressions by someone who doesn't play games, played up for comedy.
 
Kinda offtopic but I can't get the vid to play correctly: I'm getting audio but no video. I have the newest version of Adobe Flash Player installed so I dunno why it's not playing correctly. Anyone know what the problem may be and how to fix it?

Cable television channels show more gore than regular network channels(NBC, CBS, ABC). Conan comes on TBS. As someone said, Walking Dead comes on AMC. Also, SyFy channel tv movies(despite being horrible), tend to lay on ample amounts of gore.

American TV doesn't give a SHIT about violence, it's kinda out of control. Sex, on the other hand...

They might not be as lenient regarding nudity, but Cable TV does up the amount of sexual content. Recent episode of American Horror Story showed a girl masturbating.
 
I randomly watched Conan last night. Was cracking up at the Slenderman bit. I almost died when he sees the
European truck
.
 
I'm doubled over laughing at his initial reaction to Amnesia.

"I have amnesia...but I know it's 1839, my name is Daniel, and I'm in Prussia. Those are things that if you have amnesia, the first questions they ask you are 'what year is it', 'what's your name' and 'where are you', and if you can answer those things, you don't have amensia."

The Slenderman European joke was great too. I love Conan.

Kind of what I thought too. Reminds me of when someone talks and jokes through an entire scary movie, barely paying attention, then says "oh, the movie wasn't really scary".

I lost my shit at that part. Best Clueless Gamer since Tomb Raider!

I absolutely adored that line
 
After that debacle where he couldn't cross the street after 50 tries, I'm not surprised that they dont' want him to play the game. :p
 
Yeah it's no fun if he can't mess with the game... seeing him fail to cross the road next to an overpass or watching Lara Croft get impaled repeatedly were some of the best moments of previous Clueless Gamer episodes.
Besides, what they showed of the game was just a guy shooting stuff for 5 minutes. Not much joke material there.
