Game Grumps

I just enjoy their sense of humor. It reminds me of having fun with friends, just screwing around and not caring so much about playing the game. Anyone else enjoy their LP's? Anyone hate them?

They're okay in small doses... But as soon as either one of them tries to talk "seriously" about games or... well, anything really, I've gotta switch off. Best to preserve the fantasy that they're a couple of goofs havin' fun with games, than have to face the fact that the pair of them are complete idiots. (Especially Egoraptor.)

Seriously: Tutorials are not a bad thing, you idiots, and if you bothered to read them once and a while you wouldn't be spending 10 mins bashing into a door because you can't fund the fucking button on your freaking control pad that does that shit - and that's even before you point out that IT'S A FUCKING CONTROLLER IN OUR HAND IT HAS A LIMITED NUMBER OF BUTTONS HOW CAN YOU NOT FIGURE THIS SHIT OUT EVEN BY ACCIDENT GAWD!

More often than not, they do have moments that were genuinely funny, but when they stray from the game they're playing (and they do this a lot throughout their play of Sonic '06) and just talk about some random fucking topic they quite frequently miss some minute detail to help them progress through the game. It gets irritating, honestly.

Yeah, I can easily see where that drives people crazy. For some reason it doesn't bother me too much, but sometimes their idiocy with tutorials is just mind numbing. Naughty Bear was a good example of this. Their Mario Party vids are great though, I lol often. I just like having them as bg noise when I work though, makes it easier to focus.

They might do this because they're playing horrible games like Sonic 06.

Re: Tutorials. Every game should have them, and every game should have the option to fucking skip it. No one wants to play the tutorial on their second playthrough. No one wants to play the fucking tutorial on their 15th playthrough either.

Game Grumps. I like watching, but it depends on the game, I never even bothered watching their Naughty Bear play, but I'm watching current Castlevania run and am enjoying.

Game Grumps Verse? I eat that stuff up, especially the stuff they did with Nintendo Land, it just looked so much fun.

Don't bother. They are too dumb to figure out how to get past the first fucking screen on the first video, even when the objective is on the lower left corner of the screen. I only watched since I had no idea what the game is about; basically GTA with Teddy bears.

Eh, it's hit and miss, but the hits make me enjoy it. If the videos get too boring, you can always watch the soundbites.

Egoraptor explains his dislike for tutorials in this video.
