Remember when we all went "Man Japan is so weird why do they have boxes with peoples faces in their shows"

They should do their own version of the Brady Bunch opening.

The faces in Japanese TV are still pretty weird, that would be more like Patrick plays a horror game and in the corner we see Jeff's reactions as he watches the stream.

Though that would probly be great.

Only thing that could top that would be a cam with Jeff's reactions on the Daily DOTA stream.
 
I posted this in the Bombcast thread, but maybe someone here will know.

Jeff is pretty hot about his Playstation Network username and hoping to change it on the PS4.

Is it like, GAMESPOT_JEFF or something? His attitude about it has me curious as to what it is.
 
Puppeteer looks pretty... intense.

Not too fun to watch.

Thought the opposite.

You could almost feel Jeff losing some cynicism as the QL went on, as the game was pulling him in more and more. He seemed to end up liking it.a lot.

Perfect game to QL - as I had really no idea what it was all about beforehand, but ended up very interested before they called it.

I thought it was a Vita game before that Quicklook, and came away kind of disappointed that I didn't buy it while the PS+ discount was still on.
 
I dunno but they don't seem to be marketing it as heavily as previous ones. Less than a week before release and I have not seen a TV ad, billboard or anything.

I think that a lot of people on Gaf don't consume traditional media like they used to back then, do you think you might be part of that subset of people?

I mean, there was a 60fps GTAV trailer during Breaking Bad, which is probably the biggest show on TV right now. They're probably advertising, just not where most Gaffers are necessarily looking.
 
I actually keep an eye out for game advertising around LA.

The three most heavily advertised games I noticed over the past few years were:

1. Red Dead Redemption
2. Fallout 3
3. Left 4 Dead

I honestly haven't seen much out there for GTA5. I'm especially surprised by this considering the game's setting.
 
With regards for advertising, we live in a completely new age where it pays more to focus in online advertising than in years past. Everyone's too busy looking at their smartphone to see the ginormous ad in the sky.
 
Well, I only watched the first 20 minutes yesterday.

Every transition, animation, and pronunciation seemed rather hyperactive and OTT.

Might be something that comes from watching the game rather than interacting with it.
 

Holy shit I havent seen that in forever. lolomg.

Gotta admit it was slightly distressing hearing jeff comment about how that was the last pax panel. I can't tell where the humor ends and the truth starts anymore.

Edit: nevermind, I misread that.

He said that was the last PAX panel?! When?
 
Out of all the flight games they showed so far, War Thunder seems like one of the best.

Catering to arcade and sim demands, looking like a good time.

Dunno, I watch a fair amount of broadcast TV. I am UK and I am fairly certain there have been no TV ads here yet.
 
Yeah I only just got around to watching the PAX panel itself and fuck if there aren't a couple bummer moments when they make reference to working at CBSi.
Yeah, those kind of comments worry me. They make references to it more and more lately.

Really hoping everything is okay structurally over there.
 
Especially the "man I wish you guys would come to our meetings". Plus whatever the fuck this Phase 2/Phase 3 thing they keep bringing up... just sounds ominous.
 
If shit was really hitting the fan and their future was uncertain, I doubt we'd be hearing jokes about it.

CBSi is just doing what corporates do.
 
Drew gettin me to download War Thunder again. I thought the simulation side fell short when I last tried it but it was still fairly early, I don't remember if they even had "full-real" battles. For fans of either type of flight sim it mops the floor with World of Warplanes.
