Hadn't seen much footage of this game until now... what was up with the weird head-movements? It was like everyone had a turtle neck.
Looking forward to Part 2.

 

[The Great JT]

Didn't notice the skip button again, didja?

 

[CpnChaos]

What's funny is that skip button. Even the game seems to be saying "I'm ashamed, Please Skip This Now!!!!!!"

 

[Tireseas_v1legacy]

Huh... a game that is less pleasant than actually participating in the drug war

 

[Something Amyss]

He lies, he cheats, he steals.

Wait, Canadia can take Mexico? Pfft. I'd like to see you try!

OT: That terrible audio recording equipment they used to film that footage really distracted me.

 

[Mydnyght]

Hmm. Honestly I was expecting something more fitting for Halloween like Dead Island or something. Good thing I didn't announce any predictions.

But wow, you two tore into this game quite well. First Yahtzee delivered his hatred towards it a few months back, and now this. And you're not done ripping into this game. I'll eagerly wait for part 2.

GRAHAM: So like the A-Team, but shitty.
PAUL: Well, like the A-Team with lots of government oversight.
GRAHAM: So, shitty.

Well, the A-Team is "still wanted by the government," so yeah, that WOULD be a shitty A-Team.

Also, Dave Upfuckerson? Now THAT was funnier than hell.

EDIT:
Just watched the following after noticing the link in this thread...

The Extra Credits guys were SO not happy with this game. My condolences to them for putting up with it.

 

[Draconalis]

THEY ARE IN THE CONE OF SILENCE!

That's why the audio is so fucked up.

 

[mjc0961]

God damn. The game's voices sounded so odd that I kept hoping they'd press the circle button. What did they do, go on eBay and buy the cheapest mic available?!

 

[cymonsgames]

About half way thought I thought I was watching an LP and was about to try skipping the cut scene.

I wanted to skip "unskippable". This cutscene was so bad Graham and Paul couldn't make it watchable.

 

[Unhappy Crow]

I like how the subtitles seperated Vietnam as two words instead of either adding a -, or move it down to make it one whole word.

And I'm glad Graham made a comment about their voice acting.

EDIT: Weird. It said that Vietnam can be spelled like Viet Nam. I'm more use to seeing it as one whole word.

 

[Ekonk]

"We need to let the public know that any foreign asshat who comes after us in our own country will get lit up like a goddamn christmas tree."

Wow yeah, real mature dude. What kind of fucking game is this!?

Nah, I think I'll let this one go to voice mail.

What can I say? I'm sick of all this belligerent talk from Canadia. IT'S PUT UP OR SHUT UP TIME!

[MrMajenta]

so is it just me, or did every male character look the same? likewise with the female characters, only with a slight palette swap of skin tones.

also, which guy was the ninja cop supposed to be?

 

[BrotherRool]

What's funny is that skip button. Even the game seems to be saying "I'm ashamed, Please Skip This Now!!!!!!"

Exactly what I thought. That was not a normal place for a skip button. That was a skip button trying to do it's best to obscure it's own cutscene out of embarrassment

 

[LobsterFeng]

Did they have two motion capture people working on the same person? Like one for the head and one for the rest of the body? Because that's what it looked like.
