Love this channel been following for years cheers Mike Ross and gootecks forever

[@tylorjohnsman6197]

Sadly I don't think it'll ever be Mike Ross and Gootecks again, Gootecks kinda lost his mind with the MAGA and covid shit when it mattered most.

[@WisecrackJax]

@@tylorjohnsman6197 Gootecks didn’t lose shit, bud. He was right the whole time

[@tylorjohnsman6197]

@@WisecrackJax oof that's an opinion someone can have I guess.

[@WisecrackJax]

@@tylorjohnsman6197 Open your eyes

[@megavolt67]

@@WisecrackJax Open yours. You can be anti-establishment and not fall for the culture war nonsense designed to funnel people towards one political party or the other. To uncritically swallow the entire interest-driven alt-right narrative about what's really going on in this country is just as bad if not worse than whatever ironic version of "woke" it is that you think you're fighting against. Unless you're making bank off of the tribalism like some right wing grifters do (such as the Candace Owens and Ben Shapiros of the world), then I don't know what the point is of suffering the reputational damage. Because you're not valiantly fighting some noble cause in the name of a greater truth. You're just being used by corrupt politicians.

[@crazyopossum2]

Love the conversation style vids. Love seeing more of gooey (especially calling out the console craziness).

[@crosscountertv]

Thanks these are marked as podcasts, so they should be available in the YT Music app so you can listen to them with the screen off.

[@Rico-Suave]

When the next plan-demic hits we can all play tournaments online. remember to get your jab folks because if you don't you will get blamed for harming every single person next to you and also never ever ask any questions why so many people are suddenly no longer with us. The perfect explanation for that is climate change, yep that's it. Man, we are so smart.

[@crosscountertv]

💯 all those people that died suddenly were victims of climate change. Especially the athletes that died on the field.

[@jareds6717]

What's up, OG? We have been here for years, bro. Glad to see you are still doing your thing

[@crosscountertv]

Thanks for sticking around bro

[@dashX424]

To this day I still watch all the excellent adventures, comedy/fgc gold! #pogchamp

[@RompecuelloPR]

Rollback is the best thing to ever happened to fighting game and is a shame it didn’t happen before when I was more younger, love you Gootecks and Arturo

[@tobimangaka]

Yooo we innovating out here

[@TheKai432]

So you guys talked about COVID a lot bit I don't think we realize how much it traumatized people. People realized how much they miss in person social interactions.

[@crosscountertv]

💯 and the trauma ain't over yet

[@CrimsonMaplesofAutumn]

Damn right I was scared. Do note that I am a 90 year old insanely fat man who thinks a 1% chance of dying is a big deal

[@crosscountertv]

I'm glad you built the courage to work through it and live lol

[@EpsilonKnight2]

Either Sony needs to fix the controller and other compatibility issues or a competing option for cheap copy paste PCs needs to pop up soon. My computer is like 5 years old almost at this point with a GTX 1070 and i5 and still able to keep up with some of the more recent releases at least at 1080p. There's no excuse to be able to find a company that can spit out $400-600 PCs that are compatible with everything and still able to run clean 60 for fighting games at 1080p since 2K and up isn't necessary.

[@crosscountertv]

I don't think cheap copy paste PCs are an option because of low margins, but building one yourself with used parts is definitely a viable option at that price point. I did a video about it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHXadIdmbdqCfbs

[@EpsilonKnight2]

@@crosscountertv That's crazy how good of a steal you got on that build and for how effective it is. Great lesson for people savvy enough to sneak into the PC sphere.

[@kingj521]

Can't w8 to peep this when I get home. This is going to be good

[@crosscountertv]

It should also be available in the YT Music app which means you can listen to it with the screen off.

[@Vladivostok29]

Got that book pre order buffered! Cant beat 99 cents!

[@crosscountertv]

Thank you, much appreciated!

[@John-pu7nj]

Ok I watched this vid 1 year later, yeah I know I'm not really up to date. But when arturo and gootecks spoke about the limitations of the PS5 I thought about Nemo at Evo 2024 having his controller fried during the fight and I think it was because of the PS5. Ok sony bought evo but don't they make gaming PC ? For the sake of a perfect tournament it makes more sense to not use PS5.

[@dprob1985]

Luh ya goo!! Like how you stand on yours and dont let the lefty loonies sway you. Subbed 4 life

[@crosscountertv]

Thank you brotha! Gonna try to use lefty loonies in a sentence today lol

That’s not nyc furby. That’s TS Sabin

[@crosscountertv]

WTF, all this time?! 😂

[@evendrag6302]

Unrelated, but curious if u keep up with AEW?

[@crosscountertv]

I haven't been watching that much but I got my eye on their UK PPV! Punk vs. the Elite??!

[@evendrag6302]

@@crosscountertv its possible thats happening, however they could do anything with Punk at this point and itll be a draw. Im actually going to that UK event live so im super stoked.

[@Un1234l]

Serious question Gootecks, why should I support SF6 with how it appears to be supporting woke SJW ideals or people?

[@crosscountertv]

Well it doesn't appear to support it, it straight up does due to the ESG money they took. So the best I can offer is that Neo had to go back into the Matrix in order to defeat it. It couldn't be done from the "real world," only from within.

[@srka42]

Didn’t Art steal money?

[@MajeedBelle]

I think he cleared himself. But if you were following that, you would know that.

[@MajeedBelle]

@ijustwannatalkaboutgames he followed it enough to make a comment about part of the story. Imagine making in irrelevant comment about fighting game drama.

[@srka42]

This is why I mostly ignore FGC shit. Clowns.

[@SuperUltraMegaMike]

im never buying another crapcum product ever again.
