Me and my wife had a baby 4 months and I completely agree with this video. It's so hard to work time in to gaming now. I just have to pick and choose. Now I'm so behind I usually just buy games cheap on ebay since they have been out so long. At least I'm saving money that way, lol. Thanks for bringing up The Evil Within, Colin. Completely forgot about that game and I'll probably pick that up next!
I'm not sure how it worked out but I have way more time than I thought I would have after I had a kid. Our kid is 1.5 years but I game at least 2 weeknights from like 8-10 or 11. On weekends I usually play from 9p-2a. I still wish I had more time but compared to how much I thought I'd be able to play after having a kid I'm def happy with how much time I have
I feel your pain. Being a real adult and a gamer is hard. Personally I'm lucky because I only need about 4.5 to 5 hours of sleep a night. So once the baby and wife are sleep it's GAME ON. I also get a good chuck of afternoon gaming on Sunday's. Even all that being said I play everything I'd like.
Great episode guys. Tim is really developing into a great host. I'd also like to see Nick host his own show in the future - what about if each of you four watch the same movie (newer or older) separately every week or two and then you get together on a podcast for an hour to discuss it.
You're a great host Tim. Your rigorous campaign to be a host payed off!
I made an account on Backloggery and found that my game library has crept up to 500+ games and more than half of those games I haven't really even played. I can't even imagine how many years it would take me to finish, the thing that gets me is I have friends who will buy a game and beat in a week, and I just don't know how they do it. Games now are so big and have so much content, sometimes I miss the old days where you could finish a game in like 30 minutes to an hour.
My backlog as a PC gamer is huge almost impossible to finish, I'm trying but man those sell hurt me, every time I think I’m going to make it Bam!!!!! a sale and the library grow.
You mean a sale, not sell.
When Colin was talking about his dislike of the lack of Cole in Second Son, I wonder if he remembers that Cole died at the end of 2.
Absolutely loved the backlog convo, it truly made me feel not so alone. Tim, I too am stuck in past generations, specifically PS2. So many good RPGs that I own but just not enough time, and so many that I've started only to not jump back into them. Never played more than 10 minutes of Odin Sphere or FF12, but would love to finish out ICO and the Xenosaga series (lord knows that will never happen) but the time just isn't there. Got heavy into Nocturne and Dark Cloud 2 (though I like 1 better), but haven't finished them. Same with PS1 classics like the Breath of Fire series and Xenogears. Always saying I need a solid week of nothing to just bang some shit out, but I know it won't even scratch the surface. Meanwhile, I'm knee deep in some of these last-gen series right now like Bioshock, DeadSpace, Arkham, and Mass Effect (Colin I agree with basically everything you said in this episode on your opinions) that it feels like a constant juggle/drowning. That's a terrible feeling to have about a passion one has in a medium such as this, but I guess a good solution is accepting things you'll never play, as you said, and hopefully moving on. I guess it could be worse.
Love the show so far guys, keep up the great stuff. You guys are some of the few in this medium that I keep up with constantly because of your opinions, understanding, and fun attitudes. Always a great listen!
I gotta disagree with Greg over Ratchet and Clank. "People" weren't tired of the games. Some were, but most Ratchet fans wanted a sequel to A Crack in Time, but Insomniac changed the formula of the games with All 4 One and Full Frontal Assault ,which led to them not selling well anymore. I would be extremly exited if we got a new singleplayer only Ratchet and Clank Game on PS4 with Pixar-like graphics!
I adore Ratchet and Clank, and would be devastated if they stopped the series. In regards to what you said about a 'New Singleplayer Ratchet', just incase you didn't know - they are rebuilding the first game from the ground up for the PS4, so that's a great first step! :)
i have a suggestion guys on a segment that they had on rev3 called growing up with nick who didnt watch some of the older movies and watched it and had a discussion on them from a viewer who newly watched after but in this case u can try it with tim on some games he had missed last gen or any or whomever it could be anyone and have a discussion after
Cool jacket Greg.
I am loving the Gamescast guys!
I luv tim hes awsome
Converts video to mp3 - steps out - conquer the world!
As a Warcraft player I will never catch up here is part of my log at least that I can think of off my head.
Assassin's Creed 3, Unity, Dragon Age 3, All the Mass Effect 3 DLC, Walking Dead season 2, Final Fantasy 12, 10/10-2 remake, Bravely Default, Star Craft 3 (both games that are released), Bioshock 1/2/Infinite, Uncharted 1/2/3, Shadows of Mordor, Witcher 2, Skrim and at least a few more I can't remember and a couple dozen (which I got for cheap when Hollywood Video went out of business).Edit: Last of Us as well.
I used to get home from work and game for hours and even then I had a giant backlog. Now that I am married I have even less time to game as much as I would want to. I have decided to pick a game that I am really interested in and play it until I finish it and not play anything else until. This is because I have found that if I start another game I will never return to the other game EVER!
i have a category on steam called "games to beat" and these are some of them, Alice:Madness Returns, Batman AS, Batman Origins, Bioshock 2, Crysis, The Darkness 2, Dead Space 1,2,3, L.A Noire, Metal Gear Solid Revengeance, Rage, Shadow Warrior, Transistor. For Wii U Legend of Zelda Skyward sword, Captain Toads treasure tracker and the Metroid Prime trilogy. Those are just the game i own that i want to play not to mention my son should be born this month.
Saw you guys back on IGN... thought you quit?
my backlog is... to big it makes me sad
They should release small clips only a few of the gamecast same day as paid version to get people to maybe wanna see stuff early you know even one clip on a topic would be cool cause 2 weeks is a long time
Colin, where'd you get that dope shirt??
I can't resist a good PSN or XBL Gold sale so my backlog is quite big if I think about it.
nick is still on the kinda funny cast right? didnt see him in the intro dont know if its because he wasnt on this show or is he one for good D: ??
Why don't you record the whole thing for patreons, then just add a segment about the new news a day before the TH-cam release.
I wrote down my backlog in this comment box, then deleted it.
The shame of my addiction became apparent...
I will just say I am very happy with the games I chose to play and won't get hung up on the ones I missed.
Why was Greg yelling at Colin? That's not cool mate.
Here are the games literally sitting on my desk next to the computer (my backlog):
-Fallout 3 (Xbox 360)
-Fallout New Vegas (Xbox 360)
-Fable III (Xbox 360)
-Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (Xbox 360)
-Resident Evil 5 (Xbox 360)
Bought over 4 years ago and still not played - I fear I will never play them now with the new consoles out (with the exception of Fallout 3 and New Vegas as I picked them up in a Steam sale recently - and I don't care that I paid twice for these games).
do you self a favor and throw Re5 in the garbage.. worth about the same as you owing the government 20 dollars
Done ;)
well the first 1/3 of the game is good but it takes the rocky road after a certain type of enemy(ies) ruins the game
fallout 3. when i first bought it, i had never played a fallout game before, i knew they had a cult like following. Glad i gave it a shot because it turned out to be one of my favorite games of all time and also cemented bethesda as one of my favorite developers. hope you can find time for it.
MattyFizzle04 I've played about 3hrs into the game. I is a game that I can sink my teeth into I just never have time but that will change this March - I have a Stay-cation planned :)
Borderlands the pre sequel on the ps3 is roughly 6gbs
The intro sounds like the Nes Ninja turtles game.
This is still early days for this channel, but I am disappointed about lack of coverage of AAA games and recently released games. Please do lets play sessions or at least talk about recently released big games. Also PC games need more love. Come on bros, you can do it.
Mario, Pokemon, and super smash bros still have not hit saturation and those series have been going on for decades
I still want a way to pay you just as a one time thing is there a way to do that paypal or something cuz I don't want to do monthly?
You can tip any amount on there twitch live steams, it just has to be 50 cents or more.
ok thank you
Hearing you guys discuss Game of Thrones like it is super hard to follow makes me question your intelligence. Sure, it is way more challenging than most TV, but thats not saying a lot. I mean a few times between seasons I would forget the exact positioning of certain characters, and a few names here and there but nothing major. Her name is Melisandre, not the Red Lady.
Seriously though ... have you guys ever used pop filters? lol
to avoid franchise keep machanics change the concept and concite
You need to stop chopping up the videos! I start to watch one then realise after a few minutes I already watched it as part of another longer video or on the Kinda Funny channel.
Either that or name them better. For now I'll stick with the podcasts.
Guys, the mic in front of your faces is annoying. Please reposition. Tim, please face the camera, cuz ur pretty. Also, can u add footage of games being discussed. Great tubecast otherwise fellas.
Please discuss how much we all hate bobbya and his horrible video game reviews that mislead us into purchasing games
There funny
Tim's argument about not playing recent games is just bad, stop playing old ass games that do not hold up, play something like bioshock...not fucking Tony Hawk
First
Tim talking about video games annoys me. not to be rude but he always has half the facts and it's annoying -.- colin and greg can you please make sure tim is well informed before he starts talking PLEASE or hire me to fact check for you i will literally do it for $0.01. just no more half news this is literally your only job
