Why can’t I watch the videos anymore omg! They won’t play ToT Just blank empty nothing where the videos ought to be. T-T Why computer? why today of all days? Anyone have any idea why I might suddenly be unable to watch Gamebreaker TV video clips?

Edit: This apparently includes videos I’ve already seen, but not Youtube, btw.

Vanguard Saga of Heroes has had best housing, “open world” flying mounts, boats, and larget open world. Just a terrible combat system and quests.

You guys gotta pay attention to creation dates. Class3, or your undead labs game, was in production before DayZ was created. Yes you can argue DayZ was our first, but it was a MOD! It’s core gameplay was already made and they came up with zombies which are forever popular. Just saying

Since yesterday, your videos stopped working on Crome for some reason… gw2 “hypers” overloading your servers ?
- philip pardoe
  
  if its just loading the camera thing and wont load the video then your flash is broken I had the same issue with chorme you need to turn off the chrome flash plugin type
  chrome:plugins into your address bar and youll see three flash plugins if you see three disable the two that are chrome and leave the one that says its installed on your comp it will be the macromedia one and then refresh gamebreaker should then work.

lol Gary really wanted to destroy his FFXIV copy.

but on a serious note. SE wanted all of them destroyed so people wouldn’t be buying the game at retail and getting screwed out of the free 30 days that come with a retail box as the official reason from what I’ve read.

This is because the relaunch means the game will be offline for a few months during the relaunch alpha and beta period so a person could possible buy a game that doesn’t wouldn’t give them access to the play at all if they stayed on store shelves.

Why does Pokket chuckle randomly? Its really frustrating… I get the feeling she is ridiculously ‘stupid’. Elixabeth or whatever her name was seemed… normal… this Pokket girl… I don’t know man, Elixabeth was more attractive as well for that matter but can Pokket be muted at least?

lmao man so many nerds drooling over some mediocre looking girl who likes games….. It’s always so sad to see how many fat stinking guys are standing there taking pictures over booth babes, I swear every time I catch the convention disease of them.

Onto the games, I only come here cause the last MMO I played and liked was in 2005 and it was SWG pre CU and NGE. After that I haven’t played an MMO for more than a day. GW2 is another load of over rated shit… it just gets a free ride from all the fanbois as far as I’m concerned.

Thank the non existent God for Dayz!

  I agree. GW2 is just another fantasy type game in a long list of fantasy type games that dominate the market. The MMORPG market needs a lot more variety, fantasy crap is played out and its funny watching people fight over them.
  
  Each one tries to be different from the last one but in the big picture you are sill playing as a damn wizard, rogue, cleric or paladin…or some slight variation of those. Boring.

    There is The Secret World ya know? Its way different then any MMORPG out right now as far as story and setting. I think they are offering 3 day free trails now. Maybe you should go check it out? I play it and its a blast and its refreshing.

Gary, I hate you for doing that hammer thing on the CE of XIV. I have been trying for months to get a copy of it. And even tried asking Square Enix to get one offering 500+ $ :/

And you have it and smash it.

man, reading the comments guys are making about pocket here really makes me think there is something wrong with the gaming community – obviously these retarded guys are just incapable of thinking of a woman as a person with a brain

I just watched all the breaking bad episodes since you recommended it but it’s sucked since season 4. His wife just ruins, all she does is whine on and cries just cause some idiot broke his own neck tripping over.

Walt needs to kill her then I’ll watch again.

Jason seems like he’s ready to bail at any moment. Should I send in my resume?

You guys are amazing – but your redbull advertising is forcing me to miss some things important to me you are saying and making your segment look cheap and low-grade. Get rid of the ads! I would actually donate to keep you guys running if we could avoid watching fail ads like that one. Seriously guys wtf. You need to see it to understand what I mean – please, check it out.

Please no more ads

Interesting news about Wildstar crafting. And I’m glad to hear Undead Labs is going to PCs. I’ll have to start following their game now.

And cool to see the final fate of Gary’s FF game! lol
