Best of Giant Bomb 181 - Thrust Attack

[@awesomegamesdonebadly5485]

That was a perfect segue from Alex’s suffering into the first clip

[@metalgeo]

Jeff knows a high quality video game rip when he hears one.

[@MeAuntieNora]

"Do you think those kids are alive still?" I'm crying.

[@Lufisyth]

Why wouldn't they be? They were kids.

[@qwasd0r]

I love how Alex can pull the most well-spoken ad-hoc rants out of thin air.

[@awesomegamesdonebadly5485]

Alright whoever edits these vids should teach a master class to Hollywood on story structure, that payoff at the end was lovely although i don’t know if that was enough cosmic Karma with Dan’s sadness equaling Alex’s sadness.

[@awesomegamesdonebadly5485]

I’m so happy that the garbage that is Shenmue is able to continue I love it and I really need a Vinny endurance run of the rest of the series

[@MeAuntieNora]

I can just imagine his dismay when he hits the late-game money grind.

[@cecil6075]

every game in the series is a but i dont know if i'd call it "Garbage". you can't create a train wreck like that on purpose, shit's lightning in a bottle. we've all been spoiled by Yakuza, which is just Shenmue but Good. we've lost the pleasure of the ambiguity of whether or not dialogue is supposed to be a joke or not

[@Cbouncerrun]

Whoever told Ben to use thrust attacks on Owl is pure evil.

[@DoctorDudePhD]

the worst part about that whole thing was that he could have resurrected but he got so pissed he forgot XD

[@SaltPlusF4]

@@DoctorDudePhD I know this is super late but he was out of resurrects

[@almostphil]

Alex's reaction at 2:54 kills me every time.

[@RockBottomRiser21]

Turboman outdid himself on this one, bravo.

[@Stubee88]

The editing is sublime

[@Alucard-A-La-Carte]

The fact that Shenmue III turned out the way it did actually gives me TREMENDOUS optimism for "Deadly Premonition 2."

[@noobishmacgaming]

Did you rike it

[@ndonegan1558]

Dan’s breakdown at the end was priceless.

[@Asylumrunner8]

This is an all-timer Best of, filled with so many amazing moments

[@Viigilantee]

Alex's laugh at 2:55 might be the funniest "i can't hold this in" laugh I've ever heard

[@ElyskeTheDonut]

ValiantFeline on par with his cinematic Truck Sim catastrophe

[@smnoy23]

“This is...not right.”

[@TheHakku]

Temporary Secretary omg. Ahahahahaha. Turboman killing the "best of" compilations since the very beginning. Thank you.

[@peterbyrne5004]

While the others are grizzled veterans of the Endurance Run, there's something so pure and wholesome about how baffled Abby is by the low-key chaos that is Shenmue.

[@roblewis7186]

I can't read bro!

[@airbagged_]

I am taking FULL responsibility for Wii Shop Temporary Secretary

[@Dube230]

I love hearing Alex lose it, makes my day.

[@CaptainFram]

This might be a perfect video

[@TheRealAmericanMan]

I can’t believe Alex missed that

[@octocoq]

“Is Nelly ok?”

[@PabloNevares]

"Game we're talking about" switching from Injustice to God was great great great

[@LucaHibbardCurto]

Ok I am gonna need a link to that Wii Shop Temporary Secretary.

[@RekizFilms]

Check the siivagunner channel

[@RunMan327]

The intro to this Best Of is depressing as hell in May 2021.

[@OmarNaqvi]

I am convinced Giant Bomb was made to cover Shenmue

[@Electroporcupine]

Not gonna lie, I actually felt bad for Dan about the belt.

[@ironmaiden197]

I feel like I should know that "Wii Shop Theme", but I just can't pin it down. Edit: Apparently I'm not up on my Paul McCartney songs.

[@coolwhoami]

TEMPORARY! SECRETARY!

[@eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeo]

It's a Paul McCartney song.

[@PromKnight]

Its Jerry Temporary

[@Wolfesbane-]

Temporary Secretary?

[@harrywroe3951]

7:06 I love Jeff XD

[@awesomegamesdonebadly5485]

And another one... from Abby asking the universe if Nelly is cancelled leading to the transition of why even though it wasn’t his fault (hopefully) that they got them kids to sing that song’s hook he probably should be cancelled.

[@ThorBass]

Wherein Nelly descends from the collective unconscious once again to the delight of humankind.

[@bowlingdoughnutsmd3703]

Golden age of Giant Bomb

[@boheyo]

Wait I think I've made a terrible mistake ignoring Shenmue 3 just because I couldn't care less about that riveting story 19 years after the fact.

[@TortoiseMaximus]

Ben needs a temporary secretary

[@boltaco]

Alex sooooo salty. Lol.

[@djmartens123]

Guys... I actually can't get Termporary Secretary out of my head. Like every 2 days it comes back. Why?!?!?!? WHYYYYYYYY!?!?!??!!

[@TheRealAmericanMan]

Holy hell anyone know what that Sekiro stream is called? Also, Jesus Christ Kidz Bop

[@dudd9649]

It's Kid's Pop, not Kidz Bop, know your kids, Buck

[@slickmcwilly]

I think it's load our last save: sekiro. It's a premium stream

[@FattyDragon013]

I just fucking realized this is a wii shop cover of temporary secretary

[@justinw1384]

Injustice: game we're talking about.

[@lazylion420]

Shenmue looks fucking terrible, wow... how many years did they wait for this??

[@bradleybindle6428]

Ben “Werner Herzog” Hanson

[@carlb1874]

keep dancing!

[@aboltron6194]

Poor Dan

[@octocoq]

Not okay

[@JesusJimenez-zu8ez]

Burgle was accidentally GBs best piece ever

[@ogJbizz]

It's really not ok lmao

[@michaelfingers7726]

Wow if I had backed Shenmue 3 I would be VERY pissed off ....

[@Muppio]

Why choose something like fucking Shenmue, when a series like Yakuza exists?

[@Tamacat388]

Those games are going for completely different things. Comparing them is as pointless as comparing Yakuza to Grand Theft Auto.

[@octocoq]

um
