Thursday Night Throwdown: 04/18/2013

FUCKING HATS

Just read the forum thread asking for a new Bombcast image for iTunes and think that the Atari-esque image behind the couch would be great for it (with some word changes)

One of the people who played last night, here (more specifically, EyePawd on PSN.)

It was weird and sort of stressful playing and also seeing my match going on at my computer while my fiancee watched.

Damn you Gherstman, and you're lightning-fast reflexes with spamming explosive projectiles!!!!

I will have my revenge....SOMEHOW.

Ryan's hair looks good in this video. Anyone?

@jakkblades: I was too distracted by trying to figure out what/how much he was drinking.

I wish Jonah Hex was in this game.

He's very cool in some of the animated stuff.

Gotta say..I love listening to the guys talk about comics for 2 hours..even 66% of them have no idea what the fuck is going on.

Vinny playing with the tricaster is always the best part of TNT.

Holy shit, I think I got a mancrush on Alexis when he was macking on Patrick. What a smooth operator.

I know. My only point in saying that was to imply that anyone who thinks that's a cool thing to put on the wall, along with whoever actually did put that up, is dumb.

Missed out on fighting Jeff twice, first time he left, second time they switched to 360. Ah well.

oh wow, all those background pics looks cool, Jeff's sketch face is still freaking funny, I like how only that one has a frame.

@ceno: I was next in line to get a rematch on PSN when he quit and gave all the EXP to that lame Aqua Man player. =P

Patrick pulls of a hat nicely.

Love the new set!

New set is AWFUL. It's dark and dingy. Previous set was better.

You're dark and dingy

You know, Flash jumping on a bike and running down Raven was really, really funny.

The new set looks great!

Man...i always miss the TNTs whenever they choose ps3.

One of these days...maybe

I think Hawk girl had a bigger role in justice league then hawk man and that's why they chose her.

Jeff is the greatest Injustce player that has ever lived!

Ed Boon is a man of his word.

Fuck you Hawkman!

Brazilians.

new sets great! love the lighting, is there a place to see all the fan art that's up there

Is anyone else having major reliability issues with playing video recently? Just keeps dying and restarting from the start.

EDIT: Nvm, seems like my connection cannot handle HD, setting it to High seems to have fixed it.

Sneaky Jeff only sending invites to unranked players...

Damnit, watching injustice vids just gets me more exited for it. WHY WAS IT DELAYED IN EUROPE?! :( NRS, you are killing me here...

You guys are such dicks to @mattbodega

I love that Ryan said "Make Mine Marvel." Respect, Ryan. Much respect, homey.

Me too, although some of the female fighters make it look super hilarious since they fall backwards. Its like "I think I can...oh no! Uhhhh, so tired"

I thought the Green Lantern film was OK! I enjoyed it!

SSSHHHHH.... we don't want to let them find out that that Jeff tends to low sweep when nothing else connects up close... :)

EDIT: Is Flash considered top tier now since he's got a dive kick? I've not seen a lot of gameplay videos of this game but he does seem like a vortex character to me, which kinda applies to this game now since it back to block instead of a button.

@loremiser: Aside from, you know all of the comics that he's been in for the past decade and whatnot.

Like what they done with the place.

Holy shit, Jeff holding court here. Newbie death march!

What the fuck is on Patrick's Hat? is that Blood or Red Wine?

It's not Patrick's hat.

Did anyone notice the cuts back and forth during the discussion at the start? It was perfect cutting between Ryan and Jeff and Patrick. Was that done live or afterwards? Because that seemed way too perfect to be happening live.

You mean 3rd hand, cultural osmosis from a shitty 70's cartoon doesn't give one complete license to comment on a 70+ year old character from an entirely different medium and portrayal? Shocking.

EDIT - Eh, that sounded angrier than I wanted. Just so tired of this particularly mindless injoke.

I was worried we were going to get another, "watch 6 matches in a row where the couch just comments on randoms playing this game against each other." Nice to see that it didn't go that way.

Taco hat.

Nah, I still have the original. The original is far smaller then what ended up on the wall. It's just a high res scan. But like I said, the whole wall looks really colorful and cool now. Love the community artwork.

Oh man, you're the one that drew that?!

Yes sir.

Did more than 1 or 2 people burst during this entire video? That's a much better use of meter than a desperation (aka predictable) super. Stay free, internet.

I really don't like the way Harvey sounds when she's fighting. But then, I kind of hate Harvey in general.

Batman Beyond cartoon show is legitimately great

Jeff is to this game what Brad is to Battle Tetris Gaiden.

The new set looks really good guys. I had no idea half of those images got turned into posters. This was an entertaining TNT although every time Jeff missed with Flash's super it broke my heart. I can't wait to dig into the multi player for this game. Thanks and keep up the great work.
