I love that because of Bianca's nickname, anytime Dan is in peril he will sound off like a damn alarm going "Bonk! Bonk! Bonk!" And the image of a grown man in real peril yelling "Bonk! Bonk! Bonk!" without context absolutely destroys me.
Regarding Guitar Hero skills, I played GH3 with a pick and it taught me how to play fast. 5 stars on Knights of Cydonia gave me a surprising amount of control that translated to the actual instrument.
just my 2 cents on retro handhelds, i suggest getting one that also has at least one analog stick. there are many games that for me are way more comfortable to play when i can map the d-pad to the left stick. been having a great time with my anbernic 40xxH
also relating to retro handhelds, for my money NOTHING beats the vita d-pad. if you've got one lying around, using it for stuff like GBA/SNES is really really nice, especially on the OLED model.
Shawn is 100% correct, Metal Gear Rising Revengence is overrated and I am worried about the PlatniumGames collab for Ninja Gaiden 4 because of it. Glad someone was brave enough to say it
1:40:00 Regarding FF7 Rebirth....you missed a MASSIVE factor in your analysis here. The PC game came out with a HUGE discount day 1. 30% off pre order on steam. This is not how PS had ported its games over to PC in the past and its obviously going to make a difference. I'd argue it makes such a huge difference that your entire analysis in this section can be thrown out. You've talked a ton of how big a difference $10.00 can make on game purchasing decisions...this is a minimum of $30.00 cheaper (Canadian) and Steam isn't even the cheapest place you can pick up the game on PC.
Flat screen has nothing to do with it being compatible with light guns. Standard or SD tvs works with light guns no matter the shape of the screen. High Definition or HD won't work with light guns because of it running at 100hz instead of 60hz, its too fast for the gun to register.
@@flobotron Nah, at least to my knowledge (I'm looking at the chapters on the player right now). Sometimes the RUclips player just glitches out and doesn't show them, I find it's especially common when there's a lot of chapters.
6:46 Mike accusing his brothers of being jealous of his life sent me howling in the car

what was the analog pocket menu ui grubb mentioned to dan? (27:08)
He was talking about the anbernic rg35xxsp at that point and the custom firmware is called minui
oh man, Grunn rules. I'm glad Dan talked about it. great Steam Deck game
I agree with Shawn, Indie had a ton of little frustrations that soured my opinion of it by the end.

Wasn't everyone complaining Rebirth was bloated and a slog to finish a while ago? And now it's give gamers everything, no point streamlining?
Anyone have the link for the idle game?
1:20:34 how can xbox even do more backwards compatability?
Does that come with roms?
scalebound redemption? huh
Game mashup:
Dynasty Warriors gameplay (but good) and Bloodborne world and esthetic.

Damn, can't believe this is the one that finally gets Beef banned. o7

Is mike a virgin?
No he’s the pawg slammer
He was up with your mom all night
I'm wondering how many times I complained about no timestamps and they were actually there but in the description 🫠
I think Shawn needs to put the word CHAPTERS above the list. Then RUclips can parse it as video timestamps on the player.
