Episode: Testing, 1, 2...CO-OP is Live! Mass Effect 2 and Jonathan Mann [Discussion]

[shoki]

Great show... you guys seemed a little nervous but really good over all. I think after a few shows you will be as comfortable as usual.

I did want to say how amazingly touching the co-op theme song was in it's entirety. I am guessing that Jonathan's other songs highlight the joy of playing together and the simple pleasures of playing together.

You guys are awesome!

Thank you so much!

West Coast Watching on ROKU!

My wife and I enjoy watching your show (both the old format and this new one). So, thank you.

One comment: I think that having the guest sit between the 2 hosts is hard on the guest. Jonathan Mann had to keep whipping his head back and forth, and it started to get distracting.

I look forward to your next episode.

You guys did great! I was worried at first about the new format, but you proved that you guys can do a live show just as well as a pre-recorded show. I'm excited to see what is going to happen from now on as you continue to branch out. Didn't get to watch this one live, but hopefully I'll be able to catch one in the next few weeks. Keep up the good work!

Like many others, I really enjoyed the old format, especially the shows set in different locales around the city. I can understand you guys want to move up in the world but many of us really liked the community discussions and complete focus on game reviews in the old format. When we watched CoOp, we wanted to watch game footage and hear comments from players.

This new "variety show" may be more lucrative and professional but do not lose site of what got you here.....pure focus on games (with really interesting locales around SF). This work in progress may work out just fine but for now the jury is still out. Best of luck.

Regarding the ads and whatnot - they will definitely be creative and entertaining as everyone gets more accustomed to the new live format. And as more episodes are shot, there is definitely room for change/improvement.

Great feedback, everyone... it definitely helps!

I don't think I said definitely enough.

You definitely did :P

Congrats on a solid debut and an honest Q&A... obviously the live show is different- going from over 7 days worth of work in something you guys were highly competent in to a better lifestyle balance of 5 days worth of work in something new and fresh for your guys- but I look forward to seeing the growth of the show in the new format. Best.

Yes! Love the new shorter theme song and loved the first two minutes that I've watched so far.

Andsomeone suggested grudge matches. That would be sweet to see some split screen/LANed games on the live show. Please play four player Mario Kart 64 on the Penguin ice level or Goldeneye on Facility

Holy crap! That was frikkin' awesome! While it's a shame I can't ever watch this live, I feel this format works well for you. Congratulations on your first epic live show!
