Sounds like the average gamesac video viewer.

For those of you tired of GameGrumps, their "sister" series Continue? is a little better.

I don't like modern Game Grumps but I will follow JonTron to the end of the world. I love that guy.

I know right? Doesn't he just seem like a really nice and enthusiastic person. A lot of people just sound like they are going through the motions, but I never feel that way with him. He really just has an energy to him that makes you love him.

I like a few GameGrumps LP's here and there, like the broforce one and that kirby golf one.

More common would be digital releases that have 10-15x the potential user base. Bangai-O is on XLBA. MvsC2 was, until Capcom's Marvel license expired. DC was 10.6 million ever sold, PS3 and 360 are 80 million and change each.
Releasing an "HD remake" or a Digital Download is a satisfying option too, but many games for reasons I do not understand will not run on later hardware. Ex. Gamecube on Wii U, Some oXbox on 360. I do not know if the Saturn had any ports or releases on any consoles and their games are pretty expensive. . If the PS3 can run a PS2 game(digital) , then a Wii U should run a NGC game. And all consoles should in theory run Saturn games... I think.

I actually googled it just in case there was such a game. Thanks for the laugh, though.
Sorry I meant Ape Escape, I got confused. Apes and monkeys are almost synonyms . Ape's are referred to as "monkeys" in the game. At least in Ape Escape 3

Game grumps was pretty bad. I remember watching parts of a secret of mana LP from them, and they just flat out quit after 5 videos. Waste of time.

I've never watched that particular video but I'm gonna try to guess what it was like...

"Is that a midget? Do you play as a midget in this game?! Is that a fucking dragon? Like a big ass hairy motherfucking dragon?! I'm gonna kill some stuff now. Oh and that's a cat selling shit. Neko. Stab this rabbit mushroom fuckers with my sword."

I don't know how you made it 5 minutes (edit: you said five videos :shock: ).

A couple of random gaming thoughts:
1) The soundtrack in Halo: Spartan Assault sucks, so I mute the in-game music and played some Exodus and Overkill. :D
2) I got an offer from GameFly for a month's service for a buck. I'm wondering what games I should rent? Anyone got any suggestions?

Think I'm done with the whole "gaming PC" scene.

I assembled a decent rig a few years ago and now it's less powerful than the stock laptop I picked up a couple of months back.

And most PC games with heavy system requirements seem to be ported to consoles now anyway.
