Average Joe Plays it Cold

This week's g1 Submission comes from a g1 who has been trying to get his show featured on ScrewAttack for a while. g1 newman has taken a concept and has really changed the delivery of it from the first episode to what you see here. Give him your constructive feedback. I'm sure he'd welcome it.

Well as comment numero uno I

Well as comment numero uno I just have to say this is AWESOME!!! Craig try to get these guys on more often I lmao'd. Thumbs up!
THERE'S A SPOON IN MY EAR!

Not bad

That was actually pretty good. I'd like to see more =D

Lol, awesome video.^^

Lol, awesome video.^^

Entertaining

That was pretty entertaining considering what you were working with... however it could've used a couple more jokes when they were actually play the game. But all around, it was much better than I would've done.

pffft...

I get double royal flush combos all the time...

Wow, that was pretty damn

Wow, that was pretty damn funny! That smash thing reminded me of the time my friend challenged me to a game of Street Fighter only to find out he was talking about Street Fighter: The Movie on PSOne. That game sucks!

Well

The scripted parts were funny, but I'm not sure that these guys are good enough at improv to deliver the funny all throughout. I'll be sure to check their other episodes though. I could be wrong.

More! I want more!!!

LOL!! That was funny! They should have there own spot on screwattack! and it's true, poker smash will make you better at poker

Not bad

Not bad at all, has a real good feel of two friends just chatting away. Its a good reminder of how friends would just come over and expect a real good game to play together and end up just laughing at how sucky it is.

I was surprised! This was

All the end bits were great,

All the end bits were great, some of it needed a second take though. On the whole enjoyable

that was pretty funny

uh...

Cool

This show is quite funny, I'll have to look it up soon.

Funny

Hey these guys were funny, and they also have a funny name before their first name... weird.

Well

I know I would watch more episodes of that. It has my vote to get in to the next round.

I enjoyed it

Yeah it was pretty good. I think some of the most entertaining game reviews are the ones with a few friends just playing and talking about it as opposed to the big time paid reviewers. I never heard of this game before so kudos on making me privy to Smash :p

just like how screwattack

just like how screwattack got started

wow that was pretty damn

wow that was pretty damn good. Normally i dont watch the G1 submissions, i sort of assume a lack of quality or something, but that totally proved me wrong. keep up the good work guys.

Play it Cold

I think it's a good idea and was executed pretty well. :)

My road, my journey

Good show :) but a little short :(

Hye this show is quite good, as a review show, different from avgn.

It has its own kind of humour and its own way of presenting the game. I think it somehow has its place on screwattack, maybe in a bit longer version, talking more abbout the specs of the game.

Funny

Made me lol a couple of times :D not bad

Sweet ^^

I Realy enjoyed it :D I liked the unscripted parts keep it upp

cool

i liked the beginning

Not bad, not bad at all.

Not bad, not bad at all. Keep up with the video making, you've definitely got something there.

Preety damn amazing. This

Preety damn amazing. This just goes to show what a badass community ScrewAttack has.

Asian Steve > Average

Asian Steve > Average Joe.

Should be called Asian Steve plays it....something.

Dunno, Joe was not funny, but Steve was =).

This should definitely be regular on screwattack!

With good, high quality footage, actually funny dialog, and a great idea for a review-thing this is a winner in my books.

that was really good.

that was really good.

more

This was great and fun, hope it wil come more eppisiodes

good

That's some good stuff right there.

Hope to see more of these guys.

cool

the video was pretty good I liked it. It was funny and entertaining.

That was good, where are the

That was good, where are the other episodes?

I know!

Double Royal Flush Combo

5/5

Not Bad

I didn't care for it much at the start, but once they actually began to show and explain the game, it got pretty cool.

Am I the only one who can't see the video?

It keeps saying there's an error.

No, I have the same problem.

No, I have the same problem. Tried refreshing but I get the same error.

no video

same with me

Not too bad

You guys seem to have a good concept going on here.
The comedy started out pretty well (and that theme song at the end was awesome). The humor started running dry pretty fast though. Feels like the jokes revolved around the "Smash" too much.
I say work on the jokes a bit more and you'll really have something good in your hands.

Funny

That was actually really funny. Keep it up!

I liked this one a lot.

I liked this one a lot. Especially all the sound effects on the first portion. Only constructive criticism would be to invest in some better lighting.

Hmmm...

Actually, it reminds me a whole lot more of pokemon puzzle league then the games mentioned...

That's because...

...Pokemon Puzzle League is Tetris Attack with a Pokemon makeover.

Some good parts

I liked the part when he was eating chips, and the end part, double royal flush lol. Other than that it was kind of boring just waiting for the good parts.

Hrm...

I really don't know about this one guys... At one moment it seemed like a gaming sitcom in the vein of some of ScrewAttack's shows, and then for about two minutes it was a demo or a video review of Poker Smash... Not really a combo that worked in your favour, sorry.

What if you got a double royal flush super smash ball???

Not bad, I have to say. Better than the most recent ep of Nametags, though.

A laugh a minute :)

I wasn't exactly busting my sides laughing the entire time, but there were enough funny moments evenly scattered throughout that I definitely enjoyed it.

The actual Poker Smash game had me pretty confused. I think it's pretty safe to say that I'll get 10 times more enjoyment from watching this video then I would playing Poker Smash, LOL :)

Yeah I like It

I really like those two they've got good chemistry. I must proffess I was releived when this show actually turned out to be a review instead of something more like nametags. The review could have been better but I doubt it would have made any difference to the shows overall appeal. I definitley would love to see them back on screwattack!

Its average all right.

I know why it diden't make it on ScrewAttack.
thier stuff is funny, SMASH SMASH SMASH my head in.

Pretty good show

with a lil more practice could have some good comedic timing down.i enjoyed the show but that game sucked lol.

Hmmm...

This is... actually not that bad. fifen.

II WANT MORE!!!1

I WANA SEE MORE WHATS THE NAME OF HIS REVVER ACCOUNT?!

FROM THE MAKERS OF THE VIDEO

To answer your question, shamster, the best place to see our screwattack videos is, well, screwattack! Our blog can be found here: http://screwattack.com/blog/3816 or just click our name "new man" and go to our blog from there.

HOWEVER, you may notice when you read our blog that there is a NEW EPISODE that we just put up today! It's true! Good timing, I suppose. Here's a link straight to the new episode!

Thanks to screwattack for featuring us, and thanks for all of your comments! We appreciate all the feedback!
Thanks,
~The Playing it Cold Folk

great

i am really digging this show.

we want more!

yeah, i loved it :)

Great concept but it could use a little tweaking...

The idea of recording a game's first playthrough is a great one (complete with before and after thoughts) and I'm surprised it hasn't been done before...

But there are some things I'd like to see improvements on...

Firstly, I believe it would much more visually appealing if you filmed yourselves from the back playing the game and then super-imposed yourselves over the direct feed footage (sorta like Mystery Science Theater 3K) instead of the current Picture-in-Picture format you have now...

Secondly, the editing and acting on the opening and closing skits could be a WEE bit better...

cool watch and good choice

cool watch and good choice for a g1 submission sunday. this site is so cool

that was better than i

that was better than i expected it to be

That was fucking excellent

SSBB

Super SMASH Bros. Brawl! They even showed it at the end.

That was awesome! Would love

That was awesome! Would love to see one of these as a regular show here on SA!

I love it!

I love how they sort make surprise jokes, as in your not expecting one. Thats one complaint I have of Nametags. The jokes are really obvious.

this is really funny
