Back within the day, once we first began RPS, quite a lot of my day was spent looking by way of SportTrailers (sniff, thanks SportTrailers) to search out interesting-looking movies to put in writing snark beneath. Now we pressure Dominic to do this, by means too legal to explain, as a result of there are solely so a few years you are able to do it for earlier than you have to kill once more. But I can’t cease myself from posting the brand new Accounting+ trailer from Crows Crows Crows, early within the morning earlier than the remainder of RPS has crawled out of the communal treehouse hammock, as a result of it’s the most effective factor I’ve seen in over 2 hundred years.
I shan’t pre-amble the content material, however as a substitute let you know that should you’re considering, “Sure, this is a funny but standard video game trailer,” discover how lengthy there’s left on the video. Here you’re:
There. Told you so.
This up to date model of 2016’s Accounting is, it appears, tons greater, and has a degree set in precise area. It’s out immediately, round 5pm should you reside within the UK, and different incorrect instances should you don’t.
Disclaimer: Once I used to be strolling by way of GDC with Accounting’s co-lead William Pugh, and we have been chatting about one thing or different, most likely how he must brush his hair, and I noticed Brenda and John Romero strolling in. Now, I do know Brenda, however had by no means met John earlier than, however I additionally occurred to know that John Romero was William’s gaming hero, the rationale he’d ever began making video game ranges. I assumed it was too good a possibility to overlook, and that William would hen out if I didn’t. So I caught Brenda’s eye and waved hi there, inflicting their small entourage to return to a cease. And then with a wholly undeserved confidence I talked to John Romero as if I already knew him. “Hi John, can I introduce you to William Pugh, co-creator of The Stanley Parable?”
Hooray, I assumed, standing again to let William fawn throughout his hero.
“The Stanley Parable!” exclaimed John, “I LOVE THAT GAME!” After which John Romero started to fawn throughout William Pugh, and inform him at size how sensible his game was, and it was mainly top-of-the-line moments in my entire twenty years of this foolish job.
