    If I'm gonna put money on one guess for the ending of GTA5, it's that each of the three protagonists has one last mission where the objective is to fuck over the other two and get away with the money (at the end of each of those the one you're playing as loses the money, implying that in their greed nobody gets the money)

    and then there's one last mission with all three of them that takes place at the same time and fills in gaps and reveals that this was all a play to make it seem like they were fucking each other over but really they were secretly working together and they ride off together with all of the money.

    Speaking of video games...

    anyone here like Risen? I've been trying to play it, and man. I'm like 5 hours in, and i've spent all my time in one bandit camp with no armor and a crappy sword, trying to squeeze out quests to get money. Even the most basic gear is a whopping 500 gold (for comparison, most of the quests are giving me like 25 gold each.) I'm not even sure if it's what I was supposed to do, but I ended up splurging on two levels of pickpocket to make one of the quests move along. (Skilling up costs both leveling points and large amounts of gold).

    I really liked Risen but it is fucking brutal at the beginning. It's the spiritual successor to Gothic, after all.

    [Dave] Foley added that he tried to talk Boll out of including the notorious 9/11 sequence that opens the film where two Al Qaeda hijackers plan to call off their attack when Osama Bin Laden informs them that they will not receive anywhere near 72 virgins for their services, only to have passengers break into the cockpit and accidentally fly the plane into the World Trade Center) because the film would have no chance of appearing on many (or any) screens in the U.S. if it stayed in, which is what really happened.

    I saw Postal at a film festival, and Uwe Boll was there for a Q&A.

    The guy really believed in that movie and thought he was some kind of counter-culture genius for it.

    He specifically thought the bit where Bush and Bin Laden are best buddies was so fucking clever and political man.

    My favorite Uwe Boll thing is when he challenged "all ze fat game critics" to boxing matches and Seanbaby answered the challenge. I would have loved to see that.

    That actually happened. He neglected to mention he's a former boxing champion and when the critics showed up he cherry-picked the puniest ones to fight against and proceeded to bash their faces in. He of course didn't fight Seanbaby because Seanbaby looks like he could actually take him.

Seanbaby says that he trains in Muay Thai and jujutsu, stating that, "boxing is to fighting what Hungry Hungry Hippos is to fighting." When Uwe heard of this, he wanted to know Seanbaby's age, height, weight and fighting experience since he "learned he wasn't fighting a midget." Seanbaby claims he sent said information to Boll, after which Boll chose not to appear on the program.[38]

    I like jontron though

    always felt that arin was more annoying, especially when he got into full armchair game designer mode

    It also helps that since Jon left they have only been playing high profile good games, instead of the weird shit they spent the whole summer before his departure playing. I still wonder if Jon's departure from the show was completely voluntary. Just seemed weird for Jon to drop out at the exact same time they switch to playing only good, well known games, and launching a new show (now two new shows I guess?).

    It may have something to do with his moving to NYC.

    Yo we talking about good LPs?

    First off, a link to that great trespasser LP.

    Other good video LPs are anything by the Freelance Astronauts, Chip and Ironicus, MeccaPrime, Deceased Crab, Simply Simon, or the StrawHat guys.

    In screenshot LPs, all of The Dark Id's stuff is great. From Earth's runthrough of the older Silent Hill games is also pretty great.

    My dad used to play it religiously

    I think it was actually my first time ever talking to someone over the internet, filling in for him when I was maybe 10 years old while he went to do something

    (he was playing with a clan he'd been a part of for a long time, so it's not like I was having a conversation with jerks or anything)

    Like I can't keep track of all the fucking SNK fighting game series.

    I mean some of it easy. Samurai Showdown is samurais and shit.

    But King of Fighters, Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury are all in the same universe? And there's a bazillion of them?

    what?

    anonymous asked:

    Will you be watching the Persona 5 anime?
    I'm writing the Persona 5 anime. Here is an early version of a scene from the first episode (it still has a lot of exposition that needs to be cut down, obviously).

    "Persona 4 anime. Thoughts?"

    He turns his back to the question asker, masking the rage on his face and giving him ample time to draw the blade from down the front of his pants. It's not an ideal place to keep a knife, he knows that. But it's the last place they'd expect to see a knife, and, well, there's a certain dangerous thrill that comes from keeping it there.

    He turns around and slits the other guy's throat, getting blood all over the poor sap's "STEAK STEAK STEAK" t-shirt.
