I've kinda just been forcing myself to watch, since the game is just so damn uninteresting. Haven't watched the latest part yet, but even the part before that where things get interesting(?) just barely held my attention.

Could just be how I find this genre of video game as a whole uninteresting, though.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

The last couple of parts have been fairly interesting, but the game suffers from it's bland aesthetics and how obviously its big twist is telegraphed. There are somethings that even Beef and Betus riffing on can't save.

The game itself just looks so boring and bland with such uninteresting writing. It's really hard to keep interest in it even with the riffing.

Honestly, I have more interest in King's Quest VII than I do Afterfall at this point, although I suppose that could change if I watch past part 1.

Also might help to note that I was legitimately enjoying the KQ 7 videos even though the goons weren't, so.

Afterfall is pretty uninteresting by itself (until recently), but I feel like the goons' riffing has been on-point.

I did like the part with Repair Bot for just how out of left field it was.

I think the thing about it that's grating on me the most is how every enemy encounter is exactly the same and how much the combat leaves to be desired. The story stuff has been dumb enough to be amusing, but that gameplay...

I'd wonder how slowbeef is getting through it without just completely getting bored of it, but, then, he got through Dead To Rights: Retribution (though at least that had some camp value in Jack Slate's violent insanity and his terrible one liners sole one-liner consisting of shouting "FUCK YOU!").

Oh dear

Edit: Looks like it was a false alarm, although the problems did prevent him from recording more 06 for the moment.

I'm amazed he had more trouble with Tropical Jungle than Radical Train. Then again, those glowy vines are shit.

The best bit was Sonic's eyes filling with that double vision. No disguise on THAT double vision.

And the hilariously obvious pre-rendered FMV that turned this SONIC game into a fucking JRPG.

As a side note, Slowbeef's going back to Metal Gear and playing MGS 5 Ground Zeroes right now. He's doing fairly hilariously badly since he's trying to snag all the XOF patches. He's on PS 4. GZ looks GREAT at 60fps.

"Meet me at the specified point alone at 4 o'clock today."

That's great Eggy, issuing an ultimatum and all, but you never specified where you were going to meet her at 4 o'clock.

Just watched the latest Afterfall. NOW it's gotten interesting! I actually really liked that puzzle with the infinite doors and the radio. Simple and slightly nonsense, but I feel like it was actually pretty original and a nice way to show Albert's deteriorating mental state.

I don't think it's Sonic Team's fault slowbeef's PS 3 is going AWOL.

There is a patch that fixes the game?

#8191: Jul 1st 2015 at 12:41:56 PM

[up]Yes. What you have to do is uninstall the game from your hard-drive then throw away the Sonic 06 disk.

[up][up] No, they were joking about such a patch coming out the instant slowbeef can no longer play the game.

I read somewhere it was something to do with the thermal grease in Mike's PS 3. Either way he's getting a new one and transferring shit from PS 3 to PS 3 is easy. I should know since I did it (moving from an old big 80gb model to a super slim 500gb monster)

Surprise! Afterfall's boss battles are terrible too.

I... still don't know what the plot is about.

That boss design, tho. It's like someone looked at the Stay Puft Marshmallow Mam and thought, "Okay, how can we make this more ridiculous?"

Afterfall, Part 15

Trust me, you're going to want to watch this one, even if you haven't been watching this wrongpurae.

Admitabbly, I skipped ahead to part 15 out of curiosity. Why does everything look completely different from the space future vibe from before?
