An Evening With Last Stand II: The Most Overrated Video Games of All Time

[@brandenhill8426]

gonna watch the whole thing at 2x speed

[@zackeryparkerson]

5x speed or you didn’t even really watch it.

[@ADzDaRRman]

Dam it I was just gonna post that :P

[@vanguardduelist]

You heathen

[@Not_Liquid]

Make sure you’re playing a game while you do it. To maximize time.

[@jasonbower7763]

Lol you animal

[@clintonfredricks]

I lost track of Colin after Kinda Funny, mainly because i wasnt really playing games during that time and only just got back into it a couple years ago. So glad he's found so much success even after all the BS that unfolded 🙌🏾

[@MrOSUrocker]

I actually love that Dagan gets a stand up routine at the beginning, i really appreciated the cosplay segment lmao

[@hardnine]

Cringe

[@rpjordan]

Is there anything more cringe than the people in the audience shouting and interrupting one of the guys?

[@JoRo729]

I also cringed pretty hard when people would randomly bring up irrelevant games to the point of discussion. Read the room a little bit. They even said discussion about the game.

[@aaronmanier9383]

Likely inevitable with the unscripted nature of an event like this. At least it wasn't too often.

[@Alienshade]

Come on they are Texas/Americans they are naturally laud people.....

[@CashSoprano]

@@JoRo729i mean, to be fair, at the beginning they did say audiences can give their opinions of overrated games which confused ppl. It was not until colin got mad at the GoW girl and came back from lunch that he really explained.

[@94tegLSatMSC]

On the whole, I thought they were pretty well behaved and didn't talk over anyone when one of the hosts were speaking. Seemed fine to me

[@DTOID]

So happy I got to take part in this! Thanks for having me Lock ❤️ -Brett

[@adpbobcat]

Love your bit !😂

[@MicahRamey]

It was a joy to be there and an honor to get a chance to ask a question. Also Dagan is most certainly the secret weapon.

[@14_IQ.points]

Dustin really outdid himself in his segment. I have no excuse to miss the show in europe now

[@forresthunter1483]

Man, Dagan is a fucking legend.

[@daganmoriarty1973]

[@AlexN798]

Cog has got such a great vibe such a cool guy

[@Chris75717]

Total class act

[@jaydee2847]

Colin's monologue at the start was seriously impressive. Dude's a natural on stage.

[@daganmoriarty1973]

Truly. The bastard.

[@ToxMod]

(IGN)

[@admiralalyssa]

I was so happy Chris didn't "stand down" with his choice not because I hate that game but because it created the most discourse amongst the panel and audience. I think Dagan also got a similar response and that's what I appreciated most about this show. Thanks for making this show available to the public LSM family.

[@Sokka2Me]

45 minutes in and I will say that Dustin has already won

[@ashamedmadman996]

Cog was the most right, Dustin had the best presentation, Chris had the funniest, and the Moriarity bros took an L with their selections but they were well done and funny in their own right. Everyone thank Ben! ❤

[@Nintendo_Icons]

I really don’t understand how Collin could arrive at that game being one of the most overrated games ever. Half of his audience haven’t even heard of it and it’s pretty much agreed on that game as a piece of shit.

[@clashclay]

That lockmort edit was legendary!

[@QueensErik]

I just watched the first Evening With Last Stand for the first time earlier this week. It was great! But the improvement in quality between that show and this one is amazing! P.S. Id like to offer-up that CDC has now become CDCDC

[@MisterK-YT]

Wow Chris is a really good writer! Thoroughly impressed with his presentation. That was excellent and hilarious.

[@tonys_write]

His other podcast The Snark Tank is much more comedy/improv focused. He's hilarious.

[@thajazzzprovidaaa26]

@@tonys_write when Chris has said he’s done standup before I don’t even hesitate in believing it. Mans is the funniest person on last stand for sure.

[@aaronmanier9383]

Killed it

[@ADukesJustice]

You can tell Colin was a Nintendo kid with the way he shits on Sega

[@capcaveman86]

Dagan’s supremacy took a hit with that pick. And sunshine as the “best” 3D Mario is definitely a choice, certainly not mine. Conrgats on the show.

[@daganmoriarty1973]

The millennials needed some tough love and by god, they got it! ; )

[@T800CS101]

That Altered Beast presentation comes across as an ad to me. I'm sold.

[@Pizzakong633]

Its so hard to get good audience questions when they’re either extremely awkward or like the guy at 2:10:00 who desperately wanted 5 seconds of fame

[@matthewlee4834]

Dude, this. That guy was so fucking weird. This is what happens when gamers try to have social interactions

[@Pizzakong633]

@@matthewlee4834yeah luckily they’re experienced with it at this point

[@jettxjordan]

Audibly laughed out loud at my desk @ Colin’s “take me to Raytheon!”

[@NadoMD]

Dustin's reveal was so hard holy fuck lmao

[@Don-Otaku]

Chris had the most right and best presentation. Colin and Cog had great picks. Dustin was wrong but right at the same time and I hate him and love him for it. Dagan needs be taken out back...

[@MattVSin]

I love all the submissions but Dustin's was fantastic.

[@jcvdchuck7915]

Chris looked nervous the whole time and now I know why. Glad you posted this 😂

[@enginerunsable]

Why?

[@matthewlee4834]

Love Dagan's vibe. It really just chills me out somehow

[@tonystarrk4859]

Eh, I look at Super Mario 64's polygonal graphics the same way as I do early pixel art, there's a certain amount of interpretation and forgiveness you have to allow. That being said, when I first played SM64 in 1996 it blew my mind, there was nothing like it (Dagan's take was certainly an odd one, we were all impressed by almost any large 3D world in the mid-90s). Personally, I always thought early Playstation 3D looked much worse due to the flickering and warbling. Also, SM64 controls magnificently, it's still one of the best feeling 3D platformers (minus the terrible camera, which was still innovative at the time).

[@daganmoriarty1973]

Yeah, I was already old (in college) and set in my ways. ; ) But, I mean, give me a point for honesty!

[@craigperales8699]

This really showed how great they all are naturally In a mass audience and it's unfortunate we didn't get to see Matty shine

[@greggelb]

Excellent as always! Dagan - I say this from a place of love… you’re funny, organically, so lose the papers! Would have much rather have watched you fumble recalling jokes from memory than seeing those papers! 😎

[@daganmoriarty1973]

Next time, no papes! ; )

[@Haisteno]

I’ve watched this in parts over the past few days, so amazing crew great job!!!

[@bbumble1762]

Y’all should come back in August if you thought it was hot in February😂 I wish I could of gone to the show being only 20 minutes away but alas it wasn’t meant to be but I’m excited to finally watch!

[@BogeyZero]

I’ve always believed Colin when he talked about how shitty Altered Beast is, but that shit looks kinda rad.

[@TwistedHunter]

Those were some wild takes. Thank you for the show

[@DanBrown0531]

Another great live event!!! - I'm a huge Kingdom Hearts fan, and I LOVED Dustin's presentation! The story is an absolute mess, but the games are fun to play, and I love old school Disney. - I can't really agree with Dagan's pick. Mario 64 was during the time when 3D gaming was just beginning. Almost all games at the time were ugly, but Mario 64 had great controls. - I didn't expect Colin's pick, but I completely agree. Altered Beast was absolute trash, even for the time. There's a reason the Genesis didn't become popular until the first Sonic game. - I love The Last of Us, but Chris still made some really good points. One more thing, I'm a massive fan of the Yakuza series (it's my favorite of all time!). Colin brought up Yakuza, and the name change. Well, the name was changed because of something that happened in the story of Yakuza 7 (Yakuza: Like A Dragon outside of Japan), so it wouldn't make sense to keep the Yakuza name. Also, the games in Japan have always been called 'Like A Dragon,' so now the names going forward are the same for all regions. I still hope Colin eventually gives Yakuza 0 a try one day.

[@landenhansen64]

This was the only thing good about my Housten experience. I'm still so glad I was able to make it.

[@ViciousRead]

As a native Nutmegger (now a new Texan), I lamented leaving behind Stew Leonard’s, but now that I’ve experienced Buc-ee’s - I’ve never felt more at home.

[@largentbrewer]

This is amazing! So proud of how far the company has come. Well done everyone! 🔥

[@matthewlee4834]

As a fervent fan of the original Kingdom Hearts games, Dustin's presentation really spoke to me

[@directionaljoy]

Love the musical interludes, pre & post intermission. Curious, could anybody tell me if they played that LIVE on stage or just for YT video?

[@jimarnoldexp]

Dustin is allowed to slander the way he did, only because he is one of us (trying to be spoiler free)

[@matthewlee4834]

God that bit at 2:11:15 was giga cringe. What are you doing my man

[@blondiemancojoe1066]

Colin is such a great speaker man

[@ToxMod]

Ben Smith is a Legend, his opening skit was hilarious

[@BDreGaming]

I'm surprised with Colin's choice. It was an absolutely massive game at the time, but it almost feels like it predates him. It feels like something that was more huge for someone me and Dagan's age. I just remember being wowed by how graphically impressive it was at the time. And honestly it's still does have a pretty kickin soundtrack.

[@matthewlee4834]

Also, Gene Park has genuinely hilarious line delivery. Love that guy

[@X82BIGBLUE82X]

Ben’s fat joke was funny AF! 😂

[@niranjan36x]

FINALLY on free feeds! Yesssss lets gooooo Couldnt support patreon because of indian payment problems, glad to be able to watch it now

[@-Sparagmos-]

Chris spitting facts! Games that try to be movies should not be praised for good storytelling.

[@BDreGaming]

A great day for us Last Stand Media freeloaders!

[@mikereppucci4121]

Are there any jagwires in Texas?

[@KZ3fps]

Wild take about Ragnarok

[@captainpackage7]

About to get through this in an hour and 37 minutes!

[@brannonh7406]

I think the thing that makes The Last of Us amazing is that it does so many things so great. Gustavo Santaolalla's score captures every moment perfectly. Every performance feels authentic and raw. The train station and the underground tunnel with the clickers are genuinely terrifying. The clickers change the generic zombie design enough to make it interesting. Killing a human in the game feels more real than almost any other game. The use of environmental storytelling doesn't feel like a gimmick and adds so much to the world building while also telling impactful side stories.

[@lanceenchainte4890]

To be fair to Altered Beast - it was Game made for 8-bit systems and arcade boxes. On the SMS, we didn’t have a Bear level, but a Tiger. Tiger was awesome.

[@akselm.bjerke9490]

Dagan hits the nail on the fucking head when it comes to the obscene and horrifying move from beautiful 2D to early 3D. 3D created opportunities and certainly evolved, but the move from 2D was insanely unbeautiful

[@daganmoriarty1973]

It still hurts. ; )

[@akselm.bjerke9490]

@@daganmoriarty1973 Thanks, brother. Personally I still feel the pain of going from Baldurs Gate to Neverwinter Nights. We all have our cross to carry

[@FunkyFox39]

Thanks for uploading this one! I live in Houston, but couldn't make it to the show. Been sour all year about it lol

[@claytonweaver7335]

I think the thing about Mario 64 is that we'd already seen plenty of ugly games on the transition from SNES/Mega Drive to the PS1/Sat/N64. The 3D0, Jaguar, Sega CD all had more than their fair share of ugly games. Honestly, even games like Star Fox and Vectorman are kinda eh. Mario 64 was good enough and had a move set that was basically a tech demo for everything to come. Even back then the N64s main appeal was having 4 controller ports and the same four or five multiplayer games that everyone wanted to play. If you wanted good graphics, you'd go to the arcades. I remember when Wind Waker's art direction was considered controversial. Great games dont always go the direction you think.

[@ryangarcia3729]

Great memories being in the crowd for this.

[@Nicolas-Kage]

Skyrim would've been my pick. Was thinking Fallout 4, but it has had enough.

[@DeanBiddler]

Dude, Dick Cheney shot his friend in the face and his friend Harry Wilingto apologized. On cable news. Looks it up

[@mrhlawrence]

Dagan is looking svelte. Good to see him taking the opportunity to follow his Dreams.

[@HardcoreGamer101508]

The crowd was a little annoying and interruptive but fun discussion!

[@grantandrews4826]

Yooooo, thanks for putting this up for free!

[@LBEDZKI44]

This is so cool. Wish I could have gone. Great job LSM!

Dagan is a National Treasure. And I'm from Ireland. He belongs on your Mt. Rushmore!

Screw it, put me on Ireland's Mt. Rushnmore! ; )

[@yogamerbks]

Man i cant belive this is now available a awesome sorprise, here helping the algorithm 😊😊

[@bobbystatic]

FF7 would’ve been my pick. Love y’all! Also didn’t know Cog has guns like that!

[@kommanderkronk]

Colin upstaging Dagan's stand up is such a brotherly thing to do lol

[@dillonb7765]

I thought Dustin would pick an anime game immediately after his slides started

[@BlindMango]

As a Kingdom Hearts fan, was cracking up at Dustin's slideshow trying to make sense of the series - the story is truly a mess, but it's so fun to play Also I agree that God of War Ragnarök was overrated, and incredibly boring for the most part lol

[@Schnyger]

Was expecting to hate Colin's answer, but he's right. As a Sega child and someone who thought this game was so cool growing up, I 100% agree that it is not a good game. At all. Put side by side with other Sega offerings at the time like Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, and Shinobi, the game is outright embarrasing.

[@zackeryparkerson]

I played Amy on PS3 all the way to completion and regretted almost every minute of it.

[@ToxMod]

Wow that opening rift gave me goosebumps.

[@Potatochief]

The Kingdom Hearts stuff was amazing I love this 🤣

[@leetopliff8085]

Ifnand when u guys come to europe hopefully be it england will tickets only be available to those who are patreon members ?

Last of us 2 might have been the biggest disappointment in games for me.

[@elliotrogers7118]

Dagan that was great! The anime / segue joke was excellent

[@MitchellMiller1]

Maybe I'm just in a mood, but the crowd was a little annoying. Are you there for the show or there to shout things and feel special? I like the Q&A stuff, but the random shouting came across like a bad stand-up crowd to me.

[@PedroSouza-hm6wj]

Objectively correct opinion by chris.

[@derekgatzxx]

why is cog all alone on the side. move that pointless table and squeeze them in together lol

[@benjaminmartinez3588]

Bro, looking up tuneland was like unlocking a repressed memory.

[@Harkins1721]

Dustin. Its fans like yourself that gave Nomura the ammo for him to make KH 2.9 in KH3. Which is hilarious.

Oddly, I fully agree with all 5 of you on each game. Dagan's honorable mentions included. But Chris gets the win in my book.
