At least on PC, the Doom multiplayer felt like drinking RC Cola compared to the Pepsi/Coca Cola of the single player. There was just enough difference in the feel of the combat and movement that I personally found it off-putting.
Does the DOOM 2016 MP have the special kills and stuff? Or is it just a regular shooter?
I remember Jeff saying that the lineage of MP in the Doom franchise could not be ignored either, and he didn't enjoy the MP as much as in the older games.

You, my dear sir, are a heathen! RC is one of mankind's greatest creations and will be given to aliens as an example of all that humanity is capable of.
The lineage of multiplayer in Doom is four player deathmatch in recycled single player environments.
I mean it’s been a long time so maybe I’m misremembering something, but that sounds like Jeff waxing nostalgic.
Yeah, Doom's multiplayer was very tame compared to what came after it. It was fantastic at the time, because there was pretty much nothing like it and the combat in that game is fun, but the multiplayer aspect was upstaged by every subsequent id title.

That you jumped to the conclusion that I regard your carbonated dirt water to be lesser than Pepsi or Coke is just you acknowledging the truth that you have always known deep down in your soul.

So something completely different. Are there particular Ryan videos people would recommend? I’ve seen him in some random videos I’ve watched and the Scanlon goes to North Korea video, but are there any Ryan heavy video series on Giant Bomb people would recommend?
Jan also tweeted that he's driving down to LA today (and he's very excited he gets to go inside this year) but many hours later, after Jeff's drive in a different car.

Well, potentially go inside. Who can truly say what the future will bring?
I mean, I wouldn't put anything past TSA, but I gotta assume they figure real terrorists wouldn't label their bombs so obviously. Not to mention that it's a cute white girl carrying the mysterious parcel. It's not like she's Rami Ismail, who gets "randomly selected" at the airport ~100 percent of the time.
I know Drew has also talked about just telling people he worked for CBS, as it's simpler, still true, AND gives the GB duders more clout in the eyes of whoever they are working with (I think he said it's how they were able to get that theme park to let them do the rollercoaster video)
Does anyone remember how long it takes them to upload the conferences with their commentary? I'm gonna miss the EA and Microsoft ones thanks to work. Want to know if I should get my hopes up for watching them later in the evening on the same day

Twitch and/or YouTube archiving should happen automatically and quickly. Should.
Although I wasn't keeping track, I'm fairly sure that Abby, Dan, and crew ended up resting for about a month making their way through the Oregon Trail.
I always went with a grueling pace and meager rations until the overall health of those in the wagon dropped off and then, fine, strenuous pace for awhile. Was just a very different play style that they employed.
Am I just terrible at finding things or is there no G&T thread for E3?

Re: GOTY choices, most of the suspense of knowing what ends up being on the top of the lost has evaporated for me knowing that they have been consistently giving it to the game that generates the shitload of #content for that year regardless of the quality of other competitors

I didn't know it was possible to win post-Christmas. Been years since I played, of course, but my recollection was that early December snowstorms were basically an automatic game over

I don't hang in G&T much anymore, but I dont know if that would fit in to the category of mega threads. I don't think that firehose would be useful for any kind of discussion.

Been watching Abby's vlogs for the site, where she gets diarrhea, goes swimming, and almost gets punched in the face by Vinny (not necessarily in that order)
No way that MSoft conference was great. Ori, DMCV, Sekiro, Lara and Gears 5 look great. Almost thinking about buying an X, because as Vinny said it's probably cheaper buying an X than upgrading my PC.

Vinny's hitsmas run is still the hardest I've ever laughed at giant bomb content.
I couldn't breathe for minutes when he busted out of that stairwell with the fire axe.
i chucked just now by even thinking about it.
man that's good content

A personal favorite of mine:
I am a few weeks behind, but are we getting an audio stream of Jeff's car ride tomorrow?

8:30 according to the GB forums, should be starting shortly.

Well, it was nice having Abby around. I look forward to her new podcast Gen Pop Jiffy Pop.

They really should have like a "GB Studios" name for equipment that's going through TSA.
I can't believe they've been in operation for a decade (all post 9/11) and they haven't done that yet.

I wonder if they had to call CBS to verify their ID.
I know Drew has also talked about just telling people he worked for CBS, as it's simpler, still true, AND gives the GB duders more clout in the eyes of whoever they are working with (I think he said it's how they were able to get that theme park to let them do the rollercoaster video)
