Am I seriously about to start watching Sonic Forces? This is going to be one hell of a ride.

I'll do it for Dan! He's going to need all the support he can get from Arin's inevitable rage moments.

God. Going from the brilliance that was Sonic Mania to whatever Forces is is way too jarring. Why does Forces look and feel like some student project? The polish just isn't there. Maybe it's because I've been playing a lot of Mario Odyssey which has a ton of Nintendo polish. Sonic never gets any of that. His games always seem to be designed by a committee. Except Mania, which was made by real fans who knew what they loved.

But this isn't the place for that. lol

at the very end of SMO ep 7

Arin: "Whoa, you can jump on the hat?? I didn't know that!"

I fucking love Dan and Arin this episode.

"Not counting Colors and Generations"
"Generations is pretty visually beautiful"
"Do you listen when I talk?"

I had a hearty laugh.

OK this Sonic Forces playthrough is hilarious.

'dude he's been tortured. He probably has Stockholm syndrome and thinks he's an egg'

Both of these killed me.

But is it bad that I'm annoyed that neither Sonic nor Tails is more traumatized? Like, Sonic's been captured and tortured by his arch-nemesis for MONTHS. Tails watched his best friend die, and someone in the first episode even said something like, "He hasn't been himself." But no, he's just off fixing stuff.
Like, I really don't like it when a franchise goes incredibly dark and gritty just for the sake of being dark and gritty, but once you've already gone that route, for God's sake, COMMIT TO IT.

Now, if Past!Sonic turns out to be a figment of Tails' imagination and Tails is just ripping through guys, I'll let that slide, but... come on, no.

Not gonna lie, Arin sounds like a damn lunatic recounting that Wendy's story at the end of the Rob Huebel episode. I know it probably brought that particular one business, but it was just uncomfortable hearing the way it was described to me.

Yeah I thought so too haha.

Also, I'm glad Danny said he wants to see how Voyeur ends. I was also not expecting to hear the word "fuck/fucking" in the game, my reaction was the same as Danny's when she said that lol.

Not that I'm surprised, but boy Voyeur sure did dive into seduction/incest/sexual misconduct quickly

edit:
I love this new animated

I love their continued amazement that the Leisure Suit Larry episodes keep getting more and more popular haha.

Would anyone post in it if I made an Oneyplays thread seeing as there's a lot of crossover with the GG fanbase? Though I guess this thread isn't exactly active either...

The combination of Arin getting hit repeatedly and the Lightning Whip doing little damage making the fight last upwards of 7 minutes was too much lmao

Sonic Forces is a bit too easy and Danny seems way too positive on it fo the the series to be funny.

Also seem to have gutted the Mario play through? Thought they'd stick around on that one

The Grumps are playing jackbox 4 and tweeting out the room code. I don't know if they are streaming or recording an episode or what. I'm putting my kid to bed so I can't look into it further.

Edi: it is also possible that they did one round of bracketeering and called it a night.

Boy an unfortunate offensive joke in the latest LSL(From the game itself), but Arin saved it by the end.

That whole game is offensive. Haha

Anyway, I also noticed it in the rendered version of the character on the loading screen that it seemed a little more "bulgy" down there. I knew where that joke was heading before it left the station. I've also seen Hangover II. I'm surprised that joke is still being done even now.

Like Arin said, I noticed the sight gag on the loading screen, so it wasn't too much of a surprise for me when the joke was revealed lol.

The game definitely feels like you're out of touch grandpa with its jokes.

Man, the comments on that video. Seems GG has a ton of fans that aren't the most progressive. Though it makes perfect sense considering where Arin got his start and the people he hangs around with.

Should have seen the comments when Dan "shut down Arin's SJW rhetoric" a few days ago >_>

So they lost some audio for a Leisure Suit Larry episode.

But Mario is back!

And Arin is dumb and should have just used a walkthrough because I did too for that part of the game.
