giantbomb.comWow, I was ready for some shitty FMV fun but I think this have the highest production values in an FMV game I have ever seen.

Bunker, a fmv from last year was really great video wise but the puzzles were meh.

Yes, yes, yes. More cross coast quick looks / features / whatever. More Jeff and Vinny in my life now and forever. Amen.
30
This is an instant classic. Please, God, more #content like this.
26
I hope this is a game based on the movie about the late night feud with Letterman and Leno.
Edit: Dammit Jeff made the joke in the first 10 seconds.
26
I'm not really into FMV games but this one seems... pretty cool. The seamless transitions and little-to-no downtime on choices makes it such a smoother experience. Also a multiplayer FMV game sounds fascinating, I really want someone to make one of those now.
Oh and JeffxVinny otp
23
Hopefully now that the coasts have more crew members, it will free up Jeff and Vinny to do more cross coast content like this! LEG IT

Looks like a solid FMV game. Is it unreasonable to expect a cross-coast playdate for it?
16
To expect? Perhaps. To desire? Certainly not.
22
Ordinarily I might say it's perhaps a little unreasonable this close to the game's launch (they could do start to finish in a single playdate), but I think the latter half of the game and the endings are different enough that showing just one of them would be fine.
Still, I wouldn't expect it, but I'd love to see it.

This was actually in some theaters for a while back. I thought it sounded familiar when I started the quick look. Here's the initial article I read. It's cool to see it's got a wider release now, but I think the idea of having a theater full of people making the decisions by committee is really cool, especially when there's such a tight timing window on said choices.
12
Wow, I guess that explains the high production value for the video footage.
6
Also helps explain why some of those choices weren't instant-fail

It appears that this video has been taken down on Giant Bomb dot com as well as YouTube. Perhaps technical difficulties on their end. If it comes back up under a different URL, someone can make a new thread for it, otherwise we'll keep this one open.
11
Surely it must be more than just technical difficulties for the GB page and the youtube video to disappear at the same time.
10
If there is a problem with the video edit (e.g. sound issues or something) and it needs to be pulled down and reuploaded, it'll obviously be pulled from both.
4
Looks like it's back up (youtube re-upload 5mins ago).
Someone got the embargo time wrong?

Someone got the embargo time wrong?
Unlikely - the embargo on this was up about two weeks ago.

"Have sex with the car"
Lead actor's name is Joe Sowerbutts, my childish sense of humor couldn't let that go.
9
Why is everyone British but driving American cars?
8
It's a Swiss production company, and BMW are credited as providing the cars, so I'd assume they were imported from continental Europe.
6
It seemed like they were mostly driving BMWs, which are German.
5
No, I mean the steering wheel is on the left, and they're driving on the right side of the street. This is supposed to be England right? Everyone is British and the auction is in Pounds.
11
They drive on the left in this. I would assume the cars are just imports from the continent.
11
Oh that's what you meant, yeah that is weird.
8
According to the Steam achievements, there are spoiler endings. For £10/$13 and after this quick look, I'm definitely going to leg it to Steam to check it out for myself.

"Leg it" is the new "haul ass"

5
Well I didn't expect to watch all of that.
3
Oh jeez I used to reference this all the time in college.
1
Its the legit thing to do.
2
I need to see them play the rest of this!
6
Did the YT version get pulled? Just stopped playing while I was watching.
5
The Vinny-Jeff combo is too hot for YT!
13
Gotta be hella easy to ContentID.
4
Same here, had like 5 minutes left and it became "unavailable" for me too.
3
Got pulled from the main site too. Maybe broke embargo?
2
Back up
5
The game was streamed on Twitch days ago.
3
Weird. Maybe they didn't like how the guys were making fun.
2
God Vinny and Jeff QLs are the best. I miss it so much.
5
Guess I'm in the minority but I thought this quicklook was really bad. I don't need commentary over every minute thing on-screen. Maybe I've changed, but the gb crew has started to become less entertaining over time.
5†
It's uncool that you're being downvoted for your opinion but I can't say I agree with it. I felt like the duders let the game speak for itself and only commented when necessary. They didn't even make a comment on the surname Sowerbutts!
8
The first few mins are mostly Jeff and Vinny talking over it though, so I can see how someone could be turned off by that without going through the whole thing
2
Tchoi says "Matter."
4
Great Quicklook. As others have said, the Vinnie/Jeff combo is always a winner. Good looks a lot of fun so I reckon I'll pick it up.
3
This is SO GOOD! God I miss Vinny and Jeff Quick Looks. LEG IT!
Not a single time they don't knock it out of the fucking park. That duo is unstoppable.
Yes, it really is. Holy shit, this is the best.
And the tech is good enough, I wouldn't have guessed they were doing it from across the country.
