The /v/ tradition is back, seems to be starting soon.https://www.youtube.com/live/sTV4yedTLkM
Two minutes til start
SHE'S HERE
God I hope some course of events leads to Ryan sincerely crying on camera once again
this is frank's year
>>728504423Very nice
who are these literally whos??Bryan needs to clear these fools.
How many years has Garett been vomiting in december for now?
>watching 40 something year old midlife crisis washed up LA faggot wannabe comedians look at the camera with goofy faces and spouting retarded in-joke catch phrases that only idiots who watch this shit understandI seriously hope you guys don't do this
>>728504423Please say Mariel got chubby again, seeing her thighs wither broke my heart a little.
>>728504828I don't know
>>728504828be thankful for the times we had
WOOP WOOP
>>728503003
>Rocco's Santa suit is 17 years old
that coat must be a genuine biohazard by now
>>728505231That's older than the average /v/ user.
this gameshow format has never been as good as the original format
>>728505321im just glad they finally added a losers bracket
you'd better be eating along at home
No one cares about these local indie wrestlers. Hopefully they were hired just to job out to the boyz.
>>728505321I'm pretty sure they changed it because they were worried they were going to accidentally kill themselves by doing the eat until vomit version
A tradition I've observed longer than most things with my family
>>728505138terrible.
>>728505506The wrestlers are from Garrett's wrestling gym or whatever it is. And yeah, they're decent jobbing material because regulars like Bryan just doesn't compete anymore.
>>728503003>The /v/ tradition is backReally i never watched this shit even once or noticed it and ive been here for like 20 years
>>728505506theyre friends. garrett wrestles on his own time
Lmfao, fucking Frank.
>>728504514
What the fuck, I was not expecting puke so soon. Frank the madlad
>>728505825>WHY ME
>Filler round with no foodUnironic sad day.
>ringtoss
>>728503003I liked their skits. Never cared for their lives or podcasts. Not even sure how they have the money to keep going with a semi dead channel.
>>728506382>>728506531better than the present wrapping garbage they did TWICEStill though, it should have always been just an eating competition.
>>728503003>sub for 5 days before talkingreddit faggots
For me it's ninomae ina'nis
>>728505321Yeah i stopped watching it soon after this was introduced, which has to be over a decade since now probably. It also eventually made """"dr"""" ryan a big part of it after a while, and i fucking hate that retard so much i refuse watching anything with him in it, don't know if he's still part of it though. Either way the competition format just doesn't interest me like the original format and feels artificial, and the group just isn't the guys i used to watch anymore but husks of themselvesAlso unrelated but what the fuck is up with Garrett doing ai thumbnails on his poorly played streams? Does he think it's funny? Good for engagement? It doesn't seem to woek on either of those fronts and i just actively avoid his channel now because it's always some disgusting deformed or gender bent version of garret through an ai and i hate seeing it in my feed
>>728506673Last time Eric was in the studio he confronted Garrett about the AI thumbnails and that segment was funny, but yeah that's all they've been good for
Finally, some fucking food.
>>728506673>Also unrelated but what the fuck is up with Garrett doing ai thumbnails on his poorly played streams?When asked about this on the podcast he responded that he thinks it's funny.
Well, it was nice to check in on the boys, but I think it's about time we went our separate ways.
>>728507057mega64 was never that funny or good.
One minute isn't really enough time to down some dogs
>>728506803>>728506843I expected more from Garrett. I'm not even anti ai and i use iit myself, but where's the comedy in what he's doingOh well
>>728507057They'll probably shutdown soon I imagine.Used to watch these guys a ton from 2006-2012ish. Back when they'd talk about anime and videogames and seemed to just be themselves and make skits that were actually funny.I don't know what happened to them, I blame getting caught up in being "safe" funny guys and selling out and now they're sort of backed into a corner where the content will have to shift making them lose what made them worth anything and just another generic influencer group, but they're still genuine enough dudes where it wont work for them. It will kill their old fanbase and wont be enough to being in new fans, they'll be stuck with the mentally ill followers that are obsessed with them.Sad since they're all pretty much fucked in terms of employment besides Garrett who had an actual job until a few years ago.
Classic moment during the competition at this point where something is fucked up in the rules or voting or points.
>>728504770don't be so jaded dude or do you prefer the fucking degenerate new gen ai corporate youtubers selling you the latest gambling trend?
>>728507420It genuinely astounds me how little preparation goes into anything these guys produce.
Vomit garlic, nice.
Been watching mega64 since 2004 and never stopped, they haven't changed at all. You have.
>>728507302As an old viewer from that era i also felt they got stuck in trying to be too safe as sjw stuff started ramping up. Too scared to step too much out of line with anything anymore. And as they themselves talked about wanting to get bigger in the industry and having talks with studios that never went very far. Ironically they seemed to have bigger connections and deals when they weren't trying to be so serious. But i guess once streamers and such became the big influencer the big companies shifted to making deals with them instead
I miss the simplicity of just eating for the sake of it
>>728507723Well, they don't say faggot anymore and I don't think Bryan says nigger on camera anymore either
You did tune in for The Room earlier this year, right /v/?Unironically the best content that the boyz have produced in a decade.
>>728507723Not at all true. the podcasts used to be way more off the cuff and had some extremely funny bits that pushed the line. they've retroactively gone back and deleted all this to safe face for their new brand around 2016 on.there's a reason cleanfreak is gone.If they haven't changed why did they do that?
>>728507917>>728507851There's zero chance that poster isn't just pretending to be retarded to get replies
I really hate the use of non-food rounds this year. This memory card shit has been boring to watch
It's Shawn's year.
>>>/ecelebs/
RIP Bam.
Shouts out to Bam's gf doing a whippet during that cameo message lmao, guess Bam is doing whippets instead of crack now, good for him!
Based Garrett.
MY BOY FROOT SNAX
>>728509264This is what you thing of him...
this dude we never seen before is going to win
>>728510332theres no one new here this year
>>728510332Bishop was there last year too and seems like the only Garrett's wrestling pal who take this seriously
>>728507869yeah. had that shit on in the background the entire time it was live. luckily i was on vacation during that time.also bought the digital version USB drive when it was available.
>>728503003ron paul

>>728507219Fuck off, faggot
>>728504423I love her big ass and thicc legs so much bros
>I don't know how to score this one.
Classic Ryan strategy of purposefully making a mess instead of eating everything.
missed the vast majority of this because of work.did ryan go complete baby mode freak out again? the panic attack he had the last time was fucking funny.
>>728512040Nope he cried at a Bam Cameo they bought for him
MAN DOWN
Ryan suddenly dying and going under the table killed me.
FRUITSNAX THE CHAMP ONCE AGAIN AND ALL IS WELL NOW
>>728512107lame.i wanted him to be like "a bloo bloo i cant do this anymore because im scared of my health!".
THAT'S MY CHAMP. ALWAYS A WINNER.
Garrett Hunter.Garrett Hunter, 35.
Garrett's always the man
meg from mega64 is a sloppy slampig and deserves to sleep in a bathtub of ice cream
Wait these people still have followers? How old are you guys
>>728512868about the same age as them. are you at that age where you feel like its uncool to follow people after a certain age?fucking lol.
>>728512967No, their content has just been stale as shit for the past decade if not more. Sure, they were funny in 05-09 and maybe had a funny E3 video out there but man, the schtick is old as fuck now. You can tell clear as day half the people don't want to be there. At least AVGN and some others *try* to keep it up because their heart is clearly in the game.Are you guys just watching to see how miserable these people have become after choosing the insanely expensive LA life style?
>>728503003Weren't these guys all outed as pedophile giga-rapists a few years ago??
Forever the coolest and funniest member.
>>728513296AFAIK it was mostly failed 'me too' BS bandwagon. I've met Mega64 IRL they are pretty big dickheads(they use to come to a con here in Arizona like clockwork on the holidays), but I doubt they did anything but piss off some parasocial fans. Not to mention the allegations were done by people claiming to be groomed at like 19-20, which was Rocco (maybe) flirting with someone while he was like 10 years older.Basically par for the course of people in LA they want to be buddy buddy with
>>728503003Did this year's stream happen already
>>728513182>how miserable these people have become>literally spent 25+ years of their life doing what they actually love.i fucking doubt you can say the same about yourself. also, james rolf forces himself to keep AVGN alive because he knows he still has a fan base for that. but its pretty clear that video games isnt his passion at all. its always been movies. thats why he puts more effort into anything move related.
>>728513796Anon I am perfectly happy with my life, that's not the point anyone is making. The problem is Mega64's content is so fucking stale it's only really good for nostalgia hits or people stuck on copium about how "the next video is really going to be good!". All while the team barely works together outside of the most lukewarm takes about vidya/politics/life/etc.I'm happy if they are happy but they are practically irrelevant because their humor and engagement really has never grown into anything. It's just hard to follow something that would have been cool when we were still in the Obama years of presidency or jr. highschool.
>>728513796>thats why he puts more effort into anything move relatedhe couldn't even write his own fucking movie reviews for october
shut up and post more mariel
>>728512868Mega64 fanbase that is left is probably the most parasocial one out there. Like even vinesauce's audience looks tame compared to the ones still sticking around M64
Notice how they're infinitely funnier when Derrick isn't involved.
>>728513296Over a decade ago an ex outed Rocco as a cheater and it was revealed he cheated on multiple girls. We also learned that Rocco and Sam Hyde are eskimo brothers from this information.The ex that snitched basically recanted the majority of the other things she claimed, called him a good guy overall and then things went silent for maybe 7-8 years till she started her shit again, calling Rocco a groomer and a pedo all of a sudden.Rocco finally talked about it on a Reddit post and seemed sincere. Talked how they were on and off and how he finally blocked all communication with her and that's what caused her to crash out. She is now engaged and pregnant and still occasionally brings up Rocco on her IG.
>>728514731Derrick has been an issue for a while now. He's checked out and doesn't seem to grasp what makes Mega64 work. This last Black Friday stream was the first time he's been funny in YEARS. I guarantee all the non-food games were his idea for this year's Christmascast. People are there to see chaos and he's dragging the momentum down with shit like card games
>>728514868Him and Johnny seem fucking insufferable to be around. At least Garrett is still secretly as based as ever.
>>728514971Really don't get the hateboner for Johnny. At worst he's unfunny which is fine but hating him?His Nostalgia Critic marathon streams are comfy.
>>728513796I always love seeing posts like this, and then you have anons like >>728514731 and >>728514868 going "oh yeah we are SOOO BACK BOYS". Like lmao how do you flip out on people asking why these people are still around when you have follow ups of like that.
>>728514971Even Johnny has made mention how Derrick refuses to take anything they do seriously. Derrick currently has this idea that he's close to being a big Hollywood guy because he's in a couple Tubi movies and treats Mega64 as a shit day job
>>728514425>vinesauceIt's really funny that Vinny and Rocco have a shit ton in common.>Both Italian-American>Both heavy in Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger>Both massive Beatles fans>Both giant 'tendie fans
>>728515092Mega64 is still a good time and I'm glad they're still around. That being said, losing a sandbag like Derrick at this point would save them a lot of money
>>728515026Him and Derrick use to run a super left wing podcast called Megastrange. Idk if it's still going on. But most episodes was him bitching about his dad having normal opinions. He is also openly hostile to all fans. He's what people thought Eric was all those years ago.
>>728515136Derrick lost me after their "save Mega64" stream when they had that night of making personal videos. Derrick didn't bother to stick around. All that hype about how they're more committed than ever, and he can't stick around a night for one of the best things they've done in years. It was proof that they do not need him.
>>728515342I remember Megastrange being about surface level cryptid and ghost stuff.
>>728515241>t's really funny that Vinny and Rocco have a shit ton in common.bruh>ton in common>both white US males liking super popular things that millions likeYeah dude, virtually the same people. At least vinny doesn't aggro IRL to his fans, unlike rocco and co. who aren't just doing a dickhead 'bit'.
>>728515486Yeah, that's what it was supposed to be. Normie shit like the Red Web podcast. But it was mostly just liberal whining. It's really embarrassing.
>>728515520>Yeah dude, virtually the same people.Yep, all Italians are the same.
>>728515342Johnny's dad is an ex-cop and he sounds like a major ball buster. If Johnny doesn't see eye to eye with him, that only makes me like him more.
>>728515026I have been to 2 of those live shows and Johnny is just treating everyone like they're sub human. If you watch any of his streams he treats the chat like he's better than them. He did a WoW stream awhile back and just blocked anyone that whispered him.
>>728515712Saar u can not like da cops saar they try to make me not poop on da streets!Jesus Christ anon.
>>728515767Man, you are a fucking retard.
see you guys next year
>Garrett (and maybe Rocco I can't remember) watched Fishtank and hung out with Josie and Jon>The Room happens a year later
>missed it because of work
>>728515026I find Johnny genuinely uncomfortable to watch. Hed have a nice stream going until one person in the chat says something that could be taken the wrong way, and completely kills the vibe by getting defensive over it. Even with the guys he freezes up on the podcast over the slightest bit of what could be perceived as criticism from them and gets defensive. The fact that he named his third podcast after someone here that kept calling him a charisma vacuum was the least surprising thing ever. As if the guy doing that would feel anything but a victory learning that Johnny thinks about him so much. And I would sympathize if he didn't shit on stuff all the time but he will trashtalk 90% of shit out there just to then trip over his words defending himself from something that isnt even a criticism most of the time. He has had three podcasts at least and still hasnt found a voice of his own
it was never the same after they stopped doing 3 hour aftershows with skype calls and low effort videos for fun. it feels like the past 5+ years they have been trying to crack the secret of making viral videos and failing most of the time. the eva videos were amazing but it was like the only decent thing they put out that year.>>728515136>>728515402derrick said on a podcast a while ago that the podcast needed more 'structure' and was pulling everyone back on subject when they went off-topic. sucks because he used to be very funny and off the cuff. mega64 was great for many years, but most people lose their handle on the zeitgeist eventually.ok i'm done bitching. hope the boys find success. this shit got too hard for me to watch a few years ago, but they gave me so many laughs throughout the years that i can only wish them the best.
>>728514731Derrick has been the "asshole face" of the group since 2004. That said, he's definitely needed for moments like this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSTqaRjVJAg
ChristmasCast next year should just be Sarah and Meg bikini wrestling in a pool full of gravy.Johnny I know you're here, write this down.
>>728515954I only ever remember Garrett referencing it and can't imagine the others except maybe Johnny caring about it
>>728516062>Garrett losing his shitHe's so oddly pure
>>728516157https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hVvzhuc1ps 12:55
>>728515954The Room was way more entertaining than Fishtank
>>728516281Probably because FT's production crew are literally retarded wiggers huffing whippets in the basement.
>>728508014Not him and I doubt they've deleted any of their old shit but I do agree that they used to be a bit edgier and off the cuff. They weren't afraid to offend certain demographics then.
>>728516034I don't disagree. His insecurity is kind of palpable, he still has those zoomer mannerisms that you described and I personally dislike too.That said, I can't still bring myself to properly dislike him. Unironically, Frank's autism was way more grating to me when he was with them
i missed it what do
>>728516234>That last podcast where he came in late and openly admitted that him and his girlfriend had been shitting in plastic buckets for a few days
>>728512710Did he just say his age instead of his body count?
>>728515402On top of this, I'm pretty sure Derrick was absent for most of the "save Mega64" stream because he had dinner plans, which at the time blew my fucking mind.
Mickey knows how to suck it. ...and he does it well.
>>728516879Yes, kek.
>>728504423>she stopped wanting to go directly on camera during Christmascast because of these threads
>>728505272honestly might have gotten safer since the rot and vomit bacteria may have died off
I LOVE ITALTHOUGH THE LAUGH IS ON MEEEEEE
>Derrick isn't funnyNahhhhhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MX8LzsmOgU
>>728516638please help
Reminder that garret is 2 years older than the other 3 and looks 5 years younger than he is while the the other 3 look 5 years older than they are, especially Shawn.
>>728516638Go to San Diego and ask them to redo it live
>>728516521they deleted a ton of their podcasts retardo. back in 2017-18 or there abouts when youtube was banning everyone alt right. try to find shawns breakup woman rant, bryans snake nigger or derek calling garrett a faggot (was even animated)
>>728517420they wont listen to me.will there be a vod?
>>728517595they said it'll be up tuesday
>>728517413I know Shawn does. Do the others have kids? That'll age you
>>728517631thanks anon
>>728517643Rocco hasn't touched a woman in decades.
>>728517643Shawn did this to himself by shaving his head for no good fucking reason.
>>728516726>dad saw the poop buckets
>the tier list stream where Doc Ryan went on a rant about hating Resident Evil 4 and everyone in the room seemed miserable he was there
>doc ryanyaeh, im skipping this. what fucking retard introduced him to the group? biggest fucking mistake they ever made
>>728518150masseuse ryan*
>>728517862If Dick Botte is like a cooler version of his son, I want to see Garrett's father already.
>>728517828False. He's currently dating a cutie pie. I've ran into them so many times at New Beverly.
>>728518313You think he gives happy endings?
>>728517860he did it to make rocco eat his hair. that's a damn good reason.
>>728503003This board is for ANONYMOUS opinions about VIDEO GAMES!If you want to advertise your internet boyfriend and his shitty “gaming channel”, you can crawl back to YouTube, Twitch, Xitter, Reddit or whatever shithole you came from, faggot.
>>728518357Is that the chick with the glasses that has appeared for a few Scarecasts?
>>728518357>He's currently dating a cutie pieanon that was just kevin
>>728518150I think that he's an ex-user of the forums, isn't he? He basically self-invited himself in the group and to be fair he apparently does free wageslave work for the boys at the booths
>>728517413The pandemic unironically made Shawn in an old man.Derrick still looks good.
>>728518531Yeah I think he was going to the first Game Days events and threw enough money at blind boxes that it impressed rocco.
>>728518406That's her. She seems really nice and sweet. The last time I passed them by she was the one to notice us and got us to say hello.
>>728518397Man I haven’t seen the guy on top of etika in a while. Was he been up to? Also m64 isn’t relevant enough to be on this.
>>728518457>tfw no kevin gf..
>>728518379he does seem like a fellatioist
>>728519302god I wish I was rachel
Rocco and Doc Ryan play Soggy Biscuit on the santa outfit every year.
