Little weird listening to Jeff Gerstmann, a man who very much doesn't like watches, do an ad for them.
He doesn't like wearing watches, which I sympathize with because I'm kind of the same way.
But like, you can really tell when he straight up doesn't give a fuck about a sponsor, I can't remember the exact sponsors in question but I recall at least a couple times where he just speeds through the ad copy without putting any spin on it, and just ends it right there. Like a very explicit "I am reading this because I have to, let's get this shit done with"
I've never really liked the Terminator armor, from an aesthetic perspective
it looks damn goofy
and this is in a world where space knights go into battle with scrolls attached to their giant shoulder pads with wax seals
Goofy is just part and parcel of 40k to me, but yeah like, the head and shoulder placement on terminator armor kinda of like... doesn't work. It's not how a human body is. It looks like this game is running with one of the more fan theories that a terminator armor suit is more like a mech and your limbs might not actually be in its limbs type of things.
Now they have even bigger armor than terminator armor:

I mean most depictions of Space Marine armor period would require some creative anatomy

Though to be fair their anatomy is pretty creative what with the three lungs and the two hearts and the spitting acid and the ability to gain people's memories by eating their brains and all.

I don't know anything about 40k but that looks like a pretty fun game

Yeah, they're like seven feet tall on average and built like brick shithouses. Wide as hell, too - take traditional dwarf proportions and make 'em bigger than a human.

This is me rolling my eyes at the Deathwing. And this is coming from someone who painted a full Dark Angel Battle Company.
The only bad pizza I've ever had was from a man dressed as a slice of pizza selling slices of pizza out of unmarked boxes for a dollar. He was dressed like pizza so I thought he'd know something about pizza. He did not.

That's such a Dan Ryckert thing to say you probably could have left the attribution off and people would have figured it out anyway.
one dollar for one slice of pizza is not even a very good deal when it is a slice of pizza out of an unmarked box held by a man dressed as a slice of pizza

FatT: third faction game, ep 15
i don't know quite why but i really love the idea of snowtrak's subversive rigor ads in joypark

It is a perfect quote and I love it
It also comes after him extolling the virtues of cicis pizza which is PROBABLY THE worst food I've ever eaten, but of course he loves it

It's not a regular episode--we released that the next day.
its an extradimensional episode
you got your regular eps, your bonus eps, and your holiday special eps
Hmm...
I just looked up Space Hulk and hey look at that I'm interested in a 40k game?
That thing looks kind of awesome!
Please tune in next year for our Flag Day special.
On Arbor Day it's "Treenagers with Attitude".
WHOAAAAAAAA
I am going to guess he meant "That other podcasts/tv shows don't celebrate"
Yeah, this. Poor phrasing.
I agree, I did a bad job with that post.
Make sure you remove it from around your neck first
Which Space Hulk videogame were they talking about as there are multiple, was it Deathwing? The one that's like a L4D style co-op shooter?
the newest one that is not out yet, I think that's right
Cool I didn't know they were showing it off at E3! There is such a deluge of 40k games it's hard to track them all.
I love that game if only for its trailer:
http://youtu.be/YROOgLD-wtU
Because 1 it's super fun but also 2, because it pissed off a ton of the stodgier 40k fans for its music choice.
Glad to hear the game is shaping up well! I'd love a 40k l4d game.
I give and I take.
It looks really really cool, heres a gameplay clip/intro

Yup yup yup!
Exploring 40k spaceships.
Localized terminator damage like a mech.
Genestealer hybrids.

Oh yeah I am so on board it is not even funny.
Is it caught in a time warp?
Is the Friends episode the Zordon of TWA?

It's full of absolute bullshit, so... yeah, pretty much.

talk about a game that has potential but is super fuckin' rough
it also makes me want to read the Eisenhorn novels but the physical copies are out of print and GW of course wants $50 for the trilogy of ebooks.
The bad thing is I'm still kinda considering it?
