Game Grumps (aka Egoraptor plays some games)

That was glorious. And a little terrifying. It's rare to hear people actually break down like that. And then they became eerily silent. If the Grumps make it to Last Story, it may turn out to be the best episodes of the show.

Who are these guys you speak of?

Jon is becoming competent at Sonic 06. As much as such a thing is possible. Or rather, he's become paranoid enough about it. "I don't trust that thing.../QUOTE]

I love how bad this game is to make Jon think that...and he's right. He shouldn't trust that thing.

This is the link to the full LP from 2008 and all of the fan content.

They played Sonic 2006 over a 24 hour period from start to finish, without really knowing what they were getting into. They start out jocular and end up numb inside. You can almost hear them passing through each stage of grief.

10 minutes and I'm dying of laughter. Definitely a completely different egg from Game Grumps, although I do love me some Grumpage.
 
GameGrumps: Jon complains about Skyward Sword not having 1:1 controls when it does, then complains about skyward sword having 1:1 controls when the Zelda Minigame does not.

I'm starting to believe that these guys didn't play Skyward Sword. That game has a lot of problems, but the controls weren't one of them (at least conceptually, it worked fine but I would have rather used a pro controller).
 
... Not sure if I'm gonna be able to watch the Zelda sequelitis especially if he complains about the controls in Skyward Sword.
 
As I said before, I can just imagine how much of a mess the reception on their Zelda videos will be if they both criticize Skyward Sword's controls when really they just didn't have the Wiimote calibrated right. Would be a shame if they already put so much work into them under the assumption their experience with the controls was everyone's.

You should watch their NSMBWii videos. So much unfounded complaining.

Also, that's not what a parapet is.

Are there at least people informing them that Skyward Sword did in fact have 1:1 controls?

Probably. Trouble is, they probably did all the Zelda stuff in one sitting, so they'll probably keep saying that for all the Zelda videos in Nintendo Land.

Oh god, this part of Sonic 06 (Knuckles and the Stupid Fucking Purple Orbs) is the point at which I just had to put down the game forever.

And that's the easiest version of the purple orb puzzle. I must have spent 45 minutes on that stupid puzzle as silver trying to figure it out.

Man, I hope they go all the way. I want to see them clip through objects with Shadow's glider, and the billiards puzzles.
 
Shadow's glider was so goddamned amazing.

"Eh... do we really have to program collision detection? Let's just let the player fly under the level and straight through walls and take off health."
 
The jeopardy vs. is actually a really good video. The jeopardy game doesn't even have all the right answers, it said queen maleficent was from sleeping beauty. :lol But it also spelled the name wrong.

The vs. ones are generally okay. The godzilla one where they couldn't unlock characters could have been abandoned though.

Jeopardy one was good, the smash bros. one I didn't like at all. Jeopardy was frustrating with how stupid they are with baseball questions. They didn't even know what a grand slam was.

There's actually a genius little video from that same thread that shows them going through the stages of grief in the last stage of Sonic 2006, aka the part that's even worse than the rest of the game. As a warning, there's a loud yell in the "Anger" section.

That whole sequence of videos for the Final Stage needs to be in psychology classes.

Pokémon isn't a good game to do a LP with. Just because it's slower and not much going on. And I agree with Barry being at cons with Arin/Jon.

Well the problem with all JRPG really is that they fight the same enemy, 30 times.'
"oh, look at this Ratata look at his wiggly ass tail!!!!!!!!!"
Then
"Oh look a Ratata"
Then
"Oh."
Then
". . . "
Then
"TOP FUCKING PURRCENTAGE"
They need to play games with new mechanics every level to LP them.

To be fair, Skyward had problem with controls especially to make the Skyward charge. You had to go "Come on. COME ON"
Mega 64 made a sketch about it in fact http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4DeHTo6hUI
 
Radical Train is so full of brilliant moments. The fucked up scripting on the loop-de-loop, the inanity of that whole scenario of Eggman blowing up his own train or something, the part where they miss the boost and fly into a wall, "UH OH I'M A TARDASS"...

*runs right through rock during Mach Speed, falls into pit because of it*

"Some rocks don't exist."

*runs straight into same rock again, bounces into pit*

"But it existed that time. It's a Schroedinger's rock."
 
They must continue. The time travel plot, Shadow's completely out of nowhere arc about him being imprisoned in the future by Omega for reasons, Shadow's twitchy vehicles that blow up at a gust of wind, Sonic having to choose between Amy and Elise in a gameplay segment, Silver's inane psychic power gameplay, The Death, Eggman's magic scouter glasses, Last Episode somehow being worse than anything else in the game by an order of magnitude, The Kiss, and the game retconning itself out of existence.

I hope they're done with Flame Core soon, though. Getting a bit stale.

I'm pretty sure they'e but 10 seconds away from the goal ring. I can understand them wanting toget stuff over with asap in that game, but it's literally that tunnel they stopped at, an enemy or two, and then the end.

They should download a completed save so they can skip to the best (i.e. worst) parts, because otherwise this will take an eternity. Radical Train, Kingdom Valley and Aquatic Base are all likely to fuck them up.

This. This. This. If they don't finish the game they may as well give up. Sonic 06 brings out the inner turmoil of the people playing it. They will never be able to be as funny as they will be during the later sections of the game. Sonic 06 is the devil and Sonic 06 is the saviour. The grumps must finish Sonic 06...

...lol.

The fact that the first part of Radical Train is timed and the impossibility of the mach speed section guarantees that is where the let's play will end. They'll never pull it off.
 
I know I've already bitched plenty about their NSMBW shit, but goddamn it doesn't get any better.
