Someone else probably picked up on this, but it's becoming a trend now that while Games are slowly becoming itneractive movies it's become neceassary for cut scenes to be more competetantly portrayed (admittedly some still fail horribly at it but mostly they're the games no one buys or gives a damn about).ssgt splatter said:
So making fun of older games from the days when "cinematic gaming" was still a new concept is much easier and heralds much finer results.
Not saying I disagree with your previous statement that they should try and focus on recent games, but if they wanna do older games, then that's perfectly fine to, They're the oens who do it for a LIVING, When you start getting paid to mock video games, then maybe your opinion (as well as mine) might mean squat (although in fairness just because you get paid to do it, doesn't mean you're an authority on it.)
Aaaaaanyway!
Great video this week, even if I had no idea what game it was...
Was a bit weird that she would insist on refering to THEIR father are his and his alone...
I sense a "Your sister is really your mother... somehow." plot twist...
Or at the very least "You're adopted."
Hilarious episode. The cutscenes gave you a lot to work with, huh? Not that you needed it, but they were funny.
"Must chicken dance!"

I played this game thinking it would live up to Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (made by the same company), but seriously, the animation and cutscenes suck. They should mock the endings too, because they were terrible. As for the JRPG craze these guys are on, I'm enjoying it, since X-Play and the rest of the world seem to go ape*** for WoW, Fallout 3, Gears, etc, so seeing JRPGs, even being mocked, is a nice change of pace. It's also thanks to these guys that I got to see how totally horrible some of the voice acting in the Last Hope is.
Re: Games and Their Current-ness
We choose games based on how funny we can make them. Simple as that. We just did Resident Evil 5, Star Ocean 4 and X-Blades, all released in the last 6 months for 360. This happens to be an older PS2 title.
Basically, we mix it up, and we use games that work. We don't want to do a certain game merely because it's current and end up with a bad video.
Also, I point out again: We've done 16 episodes, with a mere 5 JRPGs among them.
Y'all be hatin' the JRPGs, dawgs.

So many Metroid jokes! Love it. Yes, the JRPGs tend to have the strangest cutscenes and conversations due to culture-gap and translation bugs, so they're good candidates for mocking commentary. I actually want to play a lot of these games now (Grandia III most notably)

Thank God they established the brother sister thing early, not like Grandia 3. In the words of Roamin the great crime solving Rank 11 Palain "All those jokes I made about your mother seem a whole lot less funny now."
Me too, as soon as I heard it, I thought "Oh man, it's gonna be good this week." I love when they play on old adages like the pot calling the kettle black.Baby Tea said:
Also loved the Grandia reference.
...wait, X-blades was released in the last 6 months? Damn, I thought they'd become stricter about quality control recently.GrahamS said:
