Holy shit, Gat Out of Hell is one of the most half-assed things I've played in awhile. 3 stars is borderline too high. The only thing saving it is that superpowered Saints is still fun to play.
And Deep Silver, being Deep Silver, is gonna continue half-assing it until no one gives a shit and that sucks.
What's the phenomenon when you haven't thought about a thing in a long time but suddenly see it everywhere all in a short time span?
Colin Quinn has become that for me today, and it's a nightmare. How anyone thinks about that guy with fondness I have no idea.
Baader-Meinhoff Phenomenon, sort of.
Anyway...
I watched the Quick Look of Gat out of Hell, and it looked kind of fun, but does anybody else think that Kinzie's pain vocalisations were a bit on the, uhh... sexy side?

I haen't played Gat Out of Hell, but it's pretty heavily implied that Kinzie is into that kind of stuff in SR3. In her SR4 "romance" she just punches Boss in the face and then jumps on them. I wouldn't be surprised if those sounds are intentional.
Everyone has a price. Throw enough gold around and someone will risk disintegration.
Pain grunts always sound sexual. Friend of mine was cooping Gears of War and they had to stop playing after a while because they broke out laughing whenever one of the characters grunted.
I haven't yet finished the Bombcast, how do they unsell the 3DS?
1. They point out how under supported the DSi was
2. They say that the new analog stick is basically a laptop nub, and therefore sucks as a stick
Well, that's the thing, the nub is basically just a c-stick for camera control, and it works fine for that since all you really want to do is go left or right. Straight-up fixes some games, like MGS 3D. And it works vastly better than the Circle Pad Pro since it's not in a awkward spot and doesn't make the handheld a grotesque monstrosity to hold.

I never knew Cincinatti Chili was a thing until that mail bag video. I also never knew that that's just what I call spaghetti, and have been eating as spaghetti for basically my entire life.
Cook ground beef in a pan then drain off the grease, add tomato sauce chili powder and kidney beans then cook that until it's all hot. Mix with spaghetti noodles and there you go, spaghetti. Never had shredded cheese on it though, or onions.
Also they were saying how, like with most iterations of Nintendo handhelds, this seems like too much of a half measure. There seems to be all but a few games that have been announced as a N3DS exclusive, so why would people switch when they can just stick with what they already have? The 3DS sold pretty well, right?

Spaghetti does not have beans, wherever you grew up is crazy.

Jeff also found the new 3D worse for him, in that he didn't really have too much trouble finding the "sweet spot" with the old 3DSes but the new "auto" mode thing kept on going out of focus for him.
All in all, I'm really glad the New 3DS exists, because getting a regular XL or 2DS will be that much cheaper soon enough. I had the original model for the first year or so, and then sold it because there was nothing to play but a shitty SFIV port and OoT for a looong while there. That was a really rough launch. But now I really want to check out the LttP 2 and Persona Q, so yay for cheaper devices.

I have a place near me called Hard Times that does pretty good chili.

Then most spaghetti is pretty boring. Beans are awesome.

Hahaha oh man, I'm glad this conversation is starting as the chili one in the podcast thread winds down

I don't generally like beans, but bean bolognese changed my life.
So, this week I finished up a little experiment in which I made a bunch of Game Of The Year categories in the style of Giant Bomb. Yeah, I know it's near the end of January. It took a while. I guess it always seemed hard to believe that Giant Bomb's Game of the Year content took up THAT much time, but having done exactly zero video content I can safely say I now more fully understand the time-consuming nature of the process.
It also led me to realise how different my own tastes are from the majority of the Giant Bomb crew. The only area where I shared a winner in an equivalent category was Horror, and that whole point of that category was that I hadn't actually played any of the games in question, electing instead to watch and cower.
With a lot of my lists I included games that weren't released in 2014 that I happened to play in that time. That includes my master list, in which 50% of the games were pre-2014 releases. Three out of my top 10 have been on a Giant Bomb Game of The Year top 10 in any year, and only one o fthose is from this year.
Yup. There's my analysis done. I guess my continued subscription speaks a lot for how much I enjoy the crew's personalities, but I also see Giant Bomb as a way for me to keep an eye on a wider variety of games than I would on my own.

I wouldn't have even cared but yeah, for 5 bucks I figured why not. It's so lazy.

Gat out of Hell is about on par with the SR3/4 DLCs, it's fun but it really shouldn't have been a $20 expandalone
Funny, the only problem I've heard from people who've imported them is that they wish they could get a NA version of the regular-sized one.

On par with the SR3/4 DLC sounds a lot like an insult to me.
