I am pretty sure it's based on Sonic Adventure DX.

Specifically, it's the PC version, I think. Earlier this year some leak came out showing that this game and Crazy Taxi are just slightly modified PC versions running at 1024x768.

Poor Jeff. He was lied to about getting Dreamcast games twice now. First on Game Room, then on XBLA. Nobody tell him, his heart won't be able to take it. :(

yeah!

now do some more PC ql's already
Dave needs to do an Amnesia QL (though I'd like Brad to play it instead) and Mike needs to do a King's Bounty Crossworlds QL.

I asked Mike via twitter and he said he is not in charge of QLs :'(

There has been some talk about Minecraft recently on the GB twitters. I'd love for them to QL that, though I'm not sure which of the guys would actually appreciate it.

I don't care about motion games , and I don't like this Wii Sport clone , but , you actually need 2 Move controllers ($100 + $40 for the game) to play 3 out or 6 games ( Volleyball , Gladiator Duel , Archery ) as they meant/designed to , I know there is 1 move option but it's clearly give gimped compared to 2 Moves , yet the there is no 2 Move controllers bundle

epic fail from Sony here.

Oh no, Please no , I like Brad , but he is the absolute fun-killer when it come to QL videos , for an example in Dead Rising Case Zero , he literally stripped the fun and the craziness out of it , he saved a lot , focused on custom weapons too much , did many things that makes people not familiar with the game get bored like searching for locked doors , hell even when Vinny asked him to jump from the roof he didn't do it.

it's not only with Case Zero , in Other M he was like trying to sell the game for us instead of just playing and let us decide , he always do this , unlike Ryan or Jeff in QLs Brad play like he is going to review or like serious business or something , he just don't play in the QL to have fun and make awesome QL for the audience, instead he is searching for his achievements.
 
Well, I liked the Silent Hill Shattered Memories QL that he did. He was fucking scared the whole time and even jumped in few occasions . I don't see Dave getting scared like he did which would take out the fun of watching that type of QL imo.
 
Quick Look Tier lists, lets do this

God Tier
Vinny, Dave

High Tier
Jeff

Mid Tier
Drew, Ryan

Low Tier
Brad


This does not mean that brad is terrible, but he has to be combined with people from the upper tiers if not top. Brad + ryan doesn't work for me at all

I am partial to the Ryan/Vinny combo. You get Vinny trying to find a positive in a shit game and Ryan just shuts him down straight up.
 
i want whoever did that cryostasis quicklook with dave doing amnesia

they scared the shit out of me screaming when a guy appeared out of nowhere

also they need to do Victoria 2, and Commander: Conquest of the Americas, maybe with Ryan when he comes off civ 5

also i'm rather partial to the jeff/ryan combo when it comes to shitting on things (gameroom, sonic etc)

The Wipeout QL is still my favorite of the year so far. I love that combo.
 
Ryan and Vinny are the best; last year's quick look of the Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

Very much agreed. Although I'd personally drop Brad even further down. Brad can be annoying in several ways:
-He doesn't have a lot of patience and gets frustrated way too easily. Doesn't help that he generally doesn't seem to be that great at most games.
-He does this specific thing in almost every quick look and it drives me nuts "Okay, so I don't wanna spoil anything, but here's EVERYTHING WHICH HAPPENED UP TO THIS POINT." He really needs to learn to not spoil anything at all when he's even saying he doesn't wanna spoil anything.
-He says no to doing a lot of fun random stuff. This is especially apparent in Brad/Vinny combos.

Dave and Vinny are definitely my favourites. They're very fair with how they do the quick looks (they're not easy to give up on a game if they think something minor sucks or is frustrating), and they're both very funny. It helps that Dave also shows off more rare games you usually wouldn't see on the site.
