I keep expecting something to happen while watching the Stanley Parable vids. Like, eventually the office will become demonic or that there will be skeletal people standing around or Stanley just ends up skewered by some psycho.

I actually kind of want to play the game before I watch this video. Is there anything that's especially spoilerrific in these?

Vegeta plays through 3 of the endings. Two of which are quite monologue-heavy and are actually some of the game's best

How many endings are there?

Something like 50 endings, but really if you are planning on getting the game... Don't watch, spoiling the concept alone let alone watching the game ruins the experience.

They could do educational game Let's Plays with Gohan because Chichi won't let him have any other kind of game.

Some super hard Bullet Hell games would probably be better.

The problem is making let's plays of games that are both entertaining and in character. Plus, they'd have to get Masako X to do it. I mean, Lani manages the channel, but he does most of the L Ps, anyway.

[up][up]Then how about a Robot Chicken -like episode ? Small snippets of gameplay footage, with one-off jokes and commentaries by the characters ? Masako X wouldn't even have to actually play (that could be done by Lanipator, for example), just record the lines.

Thought it was worth posting that Masakox has been doing his own Let's Play...of School Days.

I really like the fakeout framing device for Episode of Bardock Abridged. As a story being told to Gohan by Goku, it's surprisingly coherent and pretty well internally-structured for the reality that Goku and Gohan encountered on Namek; Chilled's dying words explain the Ginyu Force's behavior, and the throwaway gag of Bardock interbreeding with one of the Muppet Saiyans explains how the Saiyan race evolved from that into what it is today, closing what could have been a major plot hole in Goku's version of the story. Despite the confusing plot elements that Gohan questions at the end, it's really well put together for a story being told by Goku.

Which is where the fakeout comes in. That the story is really well put together is itself explained by the reveal that Gohan was dreaming the entire thing. Gohan's subconscious came up with the story, not Goku, and that's why as much of it makes sense as it does.

Huh. That's actually a neat little Continuity Nod as to why the colony in Aliens didn't detect the distress beacon that brought the Nostromo to that planet in the first place.

Not that it quite makes up for them feeling the need to put the girl on the team in the pink spacesuit. :P

If you could meet any of the DBZ English voice actors, what lines from the Abridged Series would have them say? I ask because I remember a clip Scott Mc Neil of shouting "NERRRRRD!" for a fan.

As for me, I would try to get Chris Sabat and Sean Schemmel to do the whole "gumdrops and ice cream" bit.

"Come eat that horse with me Vegeta."

Fortunately, I can substitute most of the TFS cast in my head with the Funimation/Ocean cast as need be.

Getting Chris Ayres to do any of TFS Freeza's lines. Any of them. But especially the line when Vegeta is going on about being a Super Saiyan "Super Saiyan, what IS that? What even IS that? ect..." . And also "If you let me power up, I'll give you a pizza!"

Also, getting Sean Schemmel to do TFS's "I am the hope of the universe" speech. With all the grammatical errors.

I get the feeling that they get way too many such requests as it is.

"come eat that horse with me" is still one of the best lines, though.

I don't remember the horse line. When was that?
