New Games for 2019! Tetris on the Gameboy! Show of the Week

[@outsidexbox]

Best wishes to our best friends in the best year ever, probably! Please enjoy Show of the Week. Stay tuned for bonus Tetris. OXOX

[@e.d.5766]

Are you guys aware of the OXbox reference in Hitman 2 on a whiteboard? It has abbreviated staff names including J.Doug, A.Farrant & M.Channell I hate when they Westernized Devil May Cry.

They're like Pixar, all their 'mistakes' and 'outtakes' are carefully crafted masterpieces of comedic wit, planned to perfection by their team of writers and executed perfectly by Jane and Co.

It's Merilwen from an alternate reality! It all makes sense.

[@Ac0303]

So that's why Jane hasn't taken over the world yet... If only she could think more than 6months ahead

[@oskrm]

and she is busy playing Tetris

[@DragonSamurai182]

I thought it was because she’s so far behind on her back log of games to play.

[@MichaelVine92]

When Jane is in charge there won't be more than 6 months to go!

[@davidleonardflanagan]

It turns out an orbital death laser takes 7 months to make.

[@homelessmexican410]

And apparently Mike is bad at thinking ahead too. The minions can't think ahead then the overlord can't think ahead

Lol, they skipped the entire month of February which has been offically dubbed the November 2018 of 2019 because Anthem, Crackdown far Cry New Dawn, Trails Rising, Jumpforce etc... all comes on in that month alone and Kingdom Hearts 3 on the 29th of January. Likewise, no mention of Sekrio: Shadows die twice in March - soo Metro ain't alone.

[@diredinosaus]

They may've changed many things in RE2, but still... *"Why'd he bite me?!"*

[@amberblackwell7687]

Is it just me or is it weird and hard to believe that Mortal Kombat doesn't use proper hard rock/heavy metal? EDIT: Yes to the livestream.

[@amberblackwell7687]

@Anurag ! while I understand your point a similar point could be made for hard rock/heavy metal. The rock scene also came to prominence in the 80s/90s. Black Sabbath, for example. Plus rock has also been blamed for the "corruption of the youth" I was really imagining some really intense grungy metal.

[@HarryBillyBobGeorge]

Jane seemed uncharacteristically dismayed with Mortal Kombat's gore. Is it just that all those bodies were wasted without scientific gain or...?

[@marhawkman303]

I think just that they went to waste in general. Elaborate ritual sacrifice is one thing, but mutilating someone in a fight for no real reason just wastes the body. Also, I'm pretty sure that IRL Jane doesn't really like games that feature gore or nudity. She's fine with scary and creepy stuff, as long as it's not naked or blood and gore.

[@c.j.w5141]

She's not been the same since the MeatGrinder incident....

Jane is all of us at the moment: "Welcome to 2018...I mean '19! Dammit! Where's my time machine?"

[@apdsqueaky]

Andy's reassuring pat as they're both encouraging Tetris pieces. Idk why but that made me really happy. Maybe because it was immediately followed by Jane insisting she's really good at Tetris and Andy cracking.

[@pauldiaz2739]

Best of luck for 2019 you guys are the best

[@strongblade]

Jane: "I never plan more than six months ahead..." And this is why Jane's World Domination plans will never quite come to fruition.

[@Philadoxical]

Jane appears on a Mortal Kombat 11 stream. *At the beginning:* "This is a little graphic with lots of guts. But it shouldn't be too bad." Softly spoken and polite. *Ten minutes in:* "THIS IS AWESOME!" Stood in the middle of the arena, drinking blood from Raiden's skull like a chalice as Mike and Andy weep softly off screen. *Ninety minutes in:* "WHO WILL FACE ME?!" Jane stood atop a pile of digital corpses. Oxbox and Oxtra both trying to wrestle the controller from her.

[@NisansaDdS]

Jane caught up games from 1761 to 1994. That is... impressive. (If Alexa and Google to be trusted) Old fans know what I am talking about.

Thoroughly enjoyed the first episode of 2019! I have a few thoughts though! 1) I love the new direction Jane is taking her personality with 35% more savageness xD. 2) Now you laugh Andy about missing notifications about uploads on a channel you work on/for but take it from me who worked on a channel with community submissions... I set up the channel initially, but many times someone uploaded a video, and then asked my opinion on it for me to blink in surprise and say "Video? Uhh sure I saw it! I didn't miss it at all... stop being crazy... ya crazy..." *mumbles incoherently and walks off*. 3) You covered the new Rage but barely comment on Kingdom Hearts 3 which is set to be both one of the biggest releases of the year, and one of the most anticipated releases in a decade? Booooooo! It's good tho. I know you only covered that inferior game Red Dead 2 until KH3 releases.... amirite? xD (Plus I have no doubt Ellen will be the one to give us what I... er... we the viewing public... er... viewing public as long as the little bell icon is pressed... want!) Happy 2019! Enjoy my novel! Really proud of it. Going to have it published. I will be THE go to guy for OXboxtra literary works in comments. Totally.... Why have I not left yet? *leaves*
