Let's be honest; the Game Informer crew's relationship with Dan Ryckert makes these videos entertaining. I would totally buy him a beer if I were in the Minneapolis area. Also: Do a Psychonauts Super Replay!!! Or a Dino Crisis!!!
I've had success by staring at the arm seen toward the top-right of the ring and watching Tyson in my peripheral vision. Doing so filters out his deceptive stutter-steps and allows you to see only the big movements.
Obviously, Dan Rychert at this point is just a character. He quotes wrestling a lot so he's obviously the heel. He's proud of it. Any sane company would had fired his ass years ago. Peeps give him money to write books and fund his tix to Wrestlemania via kick starter. He's said this! He's entertaining yes, but shit man scale it back because I hope Jeff kicks his ass in one of these someday just like the 'babyface' always does in the end.
"I am the expert at hating your stupid ass, Dan..." Gotta love Marchiafava when he's in grumpy, lash-out-at-colleagues-mode. Particularly when Kyle's the target. Granted, Kyle sounds and seems like the nicest guy on the planet. Still. Gotta love it. Cranky 'Fava.
Oh man I think Dan would be a perfect shoo in for the CIA. He just accurately described boot camp interrogation techniques. 1. Use absence of light to distort time 2. Play disorienting music to mess with the senses 3.Create an uncomfortable climate to unsettle the target 4.Force the target to demean and relieve him/herself in an unsanitary fashion.
I've been watching and following GI for a long time. Dan was the same character on Giant Bomb while he was there. After this I finally understand Dan and the wrestling villain he plays during every recording he's in. Flawless. Masterful. UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE.
he is moving to giantbomb east around christmas time 2016. he will still be doing the same kind of content, just with the new york crew instead of san francisco
I'm actually pulling for Joe, how monumental would that be at GI when Joe is one of the relatively few people who can say they beat Tyson on tape, and wins the tough boss battle that is Dan Ryckert
It's definitely possible to knock Tyson out in the first and I still claim it as one of my crowning gaming achievements to this day. But I've been obsessed with this game since I was a kid and it did take a ton of effort and patience.
Eh, I think this is a bit of a different situation. Yes, Dan was being a bit much, but he was making things entertaining. It wouldn't be fun if everyone was all goody goody with each other. We aren't cheering him on for his actions. We're just glad he's just shaking it up a little bit.
I fear for Dan's well being. If his antics continue like they have, the M in Jeff M. may very well stand for Montresor. (And I desperately hope somebody gets that reference).
@theonlyDjunceen that is absolutely incorrect. In fact it is possible to beat Tyson in the first round alone. If you don't believe me, search TH-cam. You can find multiple videos of people taking Tyson out in the first round.
And I just don't buy the whole reflex thing, I'm like the same age as Reiner and I just don't think my reflexes have diminished. I almost want to get a Wii U just to prove to myself I can still beat Tyson. I think the big problem here was just being distracted and pressured because of the taunting.
Dude, I hate reality TV. I think the stuff Dan did is awful too. But I also think it's also pretty funny; mostly because it's awful. I think he's smart enough to know it's the behavior of an ass, but does it as a kind of post-modern sense of humor.
I am laughing so hard I'm dying. I miss Dan so much.
"Fuckin' Patch Adams over here." Probably the best thing I've ever heard in the JeffM/Dan rivalry.
This is the golden era of GI, it so dull now I come back to watch these classic videos for a good laugh.
If Dan is laughing his ass off there it's a 99.9% chance that I'm enjoying the episode.
I love Jeff's hatred of Dan. It makes him awesomely clever.
Let's be honest; the Game Informer crew's relationship with Dan Ryckert makes these videos entertaining. I would totally buy him a beer if I were in the Minneapolis area.
Also: Do a Psychonauts Super Replay!!!
Or a Dino Crisis!!!
Dan, you're awesome and I guarantee this stress test would be 84% less entertaining and funny without you in it.
I've had success by staring at the arm seen toward the top-right of the ring and watching Tyson in my peripheral vision. Doing so filters out his deceptive stutter-steps and allows you to see only the big movements.
I checked and Dan's first knock down was at 18:06 in the first hour.
Obviously, Dan Rychert at this point is just a character. He quotes wrestling a lot so he's obviously the heel. He's proud of it. Any sane company would had fired his ass years ago.

Dan... What the fuck, man...
First Tyson seems to flash pink once before punching. Then he winks before punching.
Please tell me that Dan has been decked in the face a few times.
Any series of jokes that leads to someone almost being run off a bridge instantly makes them all even funnier.
between ninja gaiden and this, Jeff M. and Dan's rapport is extremely entertaining
"I am the expert at hating your stupid ass, Dan..."
Gotta love Marchiafava when he's in grumpy, lash-out-at-colleagues-mode. Particularly when Kyle's the target. Granted, Kyle sounds and seems like the nicest guy on the planet. Still. Gotta love it. Cranky 'Fava.
This was one of the best stress test I've seen. I spit on my computer at work this as so funny. Go Joe!
JeffM it's the unprofessionalism of GI that we love, that and Dan's antics
This is only everyone expressing their hate for Dan and joe getting destroyed
I wonder if they are talking about my video of my punch out run blindfolded. Granted I never ever could make it to Tyson blindfolded
"Fuckin' patch adams over here"
And with that remark Jeff M became legend
I think unlimited buffer still exists for 720p+... could be wrong, though.
Watch tyson's eyes. He blinks on the side which he's about to punch.
Oh man I think Dan would be a perfect shoo in for the CIA. He just accurately described boot camp interrogation techniques.

This people. This was why Dan R was so great for GI
I've been watching and following GI for a long time. Dan was the same character on Giant Bomb while he was there. After this I finally understand Dan and the wrestling villain he plays during every recording he's in. Flawless. Masterful. UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE.
+Dhet is he not at giant bomb anymore?
I might have misinterpreted a podcast where they spoke of Dan leaving. I guess I'm not sure.
he did leave. he left and went to giant bomb. i'm not sure if he's still there since i don't keep up with them
he is moving to giantbomb east around christmas time 2016. he will still be doing the same kind of content, just with the new york crew instead of san francisco
They also removed the "stop download" option via RMB :(
I sure miss the old days when you could pause a video and it would buffer :-(
I'm actually pulling for Joe, how monumental would that be at GI when Joe is one of the relatively few people who can say they beat Tyson on tape, and wins the tough boss battle that is Dan Ryckert
Dan just trolling and strolling
I live in San Antonio Dan. I shall "check the tape"!
Order now and get the hole dan package.
This is the best, dumbest saga.
It's definitely possible to knock Tyson out in the first and I still claim it as one of my crowning gaming achievements to this day. But I've been obsessed with this game since I was a kid and it did take a ton of effort and patience.
I don't think I ever even got past glass joe. That said I quit immediately after my first loss lololol.
Genius.
try keepvid? I'm starting to just download the videos and watching from the drive now.
Agreed. I hate when people mark a perfectly reasonable comment as spam because they don't agree.
"anthropomorphic misanthrope"
Can we please have a Dan & Jeff Podcasts????
Its just painful to see Mac get knocked down over and over in the first minute and a half of the fight
No stream??
More Jeff M in replay\stress test please.
Eh, I think this is a bit of a different situation. Yes, Dan was being a bit much, but he was making things entertaining. It wouldn't be fun if everyone was all goody goody with each other. We aren't cheering him on for his actions. We're just glad he's just shaking it up a little bit.
37:44 "Fuckin' Patch Adams over here..."
Damnit JeffM, why are you so hilarious?!?
Further making my point that there are very few people who understand how horrible he is. I'm scared for the future...
I fear for Dan's well being. If his antics continue like they have, the M in Jeff M. may very well stand for Montresor. (And I desperately hope somebody gets that reference).
This Is Entertaining To Watch, Good Stuff Ya'll
Dan, we love you in a stupid, fun-loving sort of way. But mostly stupid. :P
Dan "Good Times" Ryckert. I like that!
I take credit for deeming Ben Hanson 'Big Poop'. COME AT ME JEFF M!
Jeff M. is comedy gold!
GOOD LUCK JOE
omg this episode is fucking amazing jeffum is god
is it weird that I don't want Joe to win?
@theonlyDjunceen that is absolutely incorrect. In fact it is possible to beat Tyson in the first round alone. If you don't believe me, search TH-cam. You can find multiple videos of people taking Tyson out in the first round.
It's been 3 weeks since this video was posted. Me thinks Joe quit. Tyson 2 GI staff 0. Next!
Oh heeelll yeah
Bring on Jason!
Dan is the greatest human being.
Such passive aggressiveness
the ONLY WAY to beat tyson is to dodge the entire 1st round.
truck nuts are expensive
Say what you want about Dan Ryckert. But he is absolutely hilarious.
When JeffM is annoyed by Dan he kind of talks with the same inflection as Kim when she's annoyed with Dan.
And I just don't buy the whole reflex thing, I'm like the same age as Reiner and I just don't think my reflexes have diminished. I almost want to get a Wii U just to prove to myself I can still beat Tyson. I think the big problem here was just being distracted and pressured because of the taunting.
bout time
Nearly impossible come on new schoolers
I wonder how much Jeff actually hates Dan, I can tell Joe and Dan get along, but I can't read Jeff.
pun intended
HAHA oh man!!! WOOOOOOOOO!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I see why everything on TV is horrible reality shows when everyone in the comments is saying how awesome Dan is for being a horrible human being.
Dan is morally questionable, and hilarious because of it.
I can beat him on my first try, I did like a week ago.
yusssssss
Guys, come on. I beat Tyson at the age of 6 or 7. He's not that hard. It's been like 25 years and people still have trouble?
Control
I hope Jeff is jokin around with Dan and is not actually bein an ass, I think Dan's pretty damn funny. silly and stupid but funny.
Dude, I hate reality TV. I think the stuff Dan did is awful too. But I also think it's also pretty funny; mostly because it's awful. I think he's smart enough to know it's the behavior of an ass, but does it as a kind of post-modern sense of humor.
Wow dan's terrible
Probably 69% less entertaining.
dan is horrible.....
