PARTYQUEUE: Cuisine Royale

that's...not PUBG

Ben + Jan gives me life!

What an intro.

All aboard the vengabus.

This is the kind of party we need......with extra cheese

mmm bangers and mash

A+, I had no idea I needed this, I hope they keep picking hidden gems like this game

ben is the e-cigarettes for legs guy, confirmed

JANTHINGS!

I was about to say I need to get more used to Ben before I can appreciate these types of videos, but then I remembered he's been Giant Bomb staff for like two years, so maybe it's just how it is.

Aw hell ya, Jan! Bacon pancakes!

Was not expecting such a lit intro :D

A series that can never end: Play every Pubguh clone.

Giant Bomb is becoming way too California lately.

BEN AND JAN DREAM TEAM

Does anyone else think the setting in this looks more varied and aesthetically pleasing than actual PUBG?

yesyesyesyes. As much as I'd like to watch a Ben Jan endurance run of some sort, this is the other type of stream I'd like to see from these good boiz.

EDIT: oh and yeah, definitely show your faces folks. I always prefer streams like that, but honestly not sure if I'm the minority or not.

@cheetovicks: west coast best coast

We need community "Best GB Intro of the Year"

Ben. Play Arma.

Maybe instead of persistently showing faces during the whole stream, show them periodically for reactions. I like Jan's style of adding different overlays (shoutouts to Mmmmmike) depending on context, whether as goofs or to help convey something in-game. Anyway I'm really into the concept of this series even though I've never played a single battle royale game and really don't care about them at all.

Jan and Ben is a great combo

@grace_omega: Yep. From my outside perspective, this looks jankier, but also more interestingly designed.

This is great, this is great, this is great.

and intro video of the year goes to

Welcome Mike to the GB family!

Wow this is such an unashamed copy, but it seems to have some unique charms in some of their tertiary choices like the cigar you can see in first person and high jump boots.

Fair enough that it started as an April fools joke, but considering how similar to Battlegrounds it is in style and structure I don't see it lasting, Totally Accurate Battle Simulator was a more interesting and fun take on it.

Anyway I enjoy your co-op shenanigans! Idk what to suggest but I'm excited for the next one. Live shows of this ilk would be cool too, I initially thought this was gonna be live.

... yep.

Jan + Ben = the good shit

I actually hope they don't get more people in because Jan and Ben together is gold. No need to put more people in this mix.

Yes to this behaviour. And also yes to faces.

Oh man that intro! Awesome! And Jan on a feature, yess! Ben + Jan is a great combo!

I am a fan of cold opens and good ass intro's.

@hellbrendy: Yeah, they have a pretty hilarious and effortless chemistry. More of this, please!

Me too, until half an hour before it was due, I thought there was a random Sunday live show on the schedule.

I like the edited content!

Let us see your pretty faces, lads. (Also, this was a lot of fun!)

Facecams yes!

Wasn’t a huge fan of this but glad to see so many others seem to be really into it.

Miiiiiiiike is a good addition to the GB Crew.

@benpack@janman Will nominate you for best GB feature if you follow through on playing cho'gall in Heroes of the Storm together.

I'm gonna echo the "I am glad other people enjoy this". I like the Ben+Jan brand of humor well enough..in doses about half the length of a typical ben's lens. In the kind of levels that other people (Brad, Jeff, Jason) will typically shut down and move past after its worn its welcome out (for me).

A full length feature of this is like an SNL skit turned into a full show. I'll laugh at the initial 5 minute bit, i'll roll my eyes and change the channel for the weekly hour long comedy. Or..maybe its the lack of a 'straight man' , I dunno.

Still, it seems to really tickle the fancy of plenty of people as stated, so good for it. Also A+ effort on that intro.

@silenturtle: The winner is and will always be the intro to Bens Lens.

i live for edited content

Also fuck me that is a good intro. I love Jan. I love Ben. Everyone is so good. GB hires so good.

I watched the whole thing and I still have zero idea what this series is supposed to be

:plur

Fantastic intro, stopped watching after that when I realised the game was a battle Royale. Looking forward to the next episode!

Game Recommendation: Rocky and Pocky 2 for the SNES that or some trash Multiplayer game on Steam or something

What the hell.

Great intro, I wish every GB feature had intros (and end credits!).
