Party of One: The Jeff Gerstmann Home Game: Garfield: Lasagna World Tour

Garfield is a pretty funny feline!

The absolute madman!

Anyone for some late-night lasagna?!

thank you jeff

No Lorenzo Music, no play.

I watched this live, it was hell. Seriously though, this game just seemed awfully generic. A run of the mill 3D platformer on the PS2 which there were hundreds of like it.

That Garfield voice is straight up terrible though.

Old man Garfield is worst Garfield.

Old games! Hooray!

But is this the best red cat platformer? Redcat spookkasteel (haunted house) was made 8 years earlier!

"This is two hours of a Garfield PS2 game that came out in 2008."

I'm sorry, did you write "This is the best possible thing for ShaggE to find upon visiting Giant Bomb at 1:15 AM"? Because I'm pretty sure that's what I read.

This is why I'm a subscriber.

I like that Jeff has been streaming a lot more lately. And the audio is the best that it's ever been!

@lanechanger: Yeah Jeff's home streams have been super fun to watch during the Christmas break. I like when he's playing old games he is familiar with and can provide some information about, but I especially enjoy when he's just firing up some random game for the first time and finding out if it's terrible or not, like this Garfield game.

Glad that that Garfield model is getting a rebirth in VRchat

I'm always happy to watch Jeff torture himself. But as a Garfield fan that voice actor is no Lorenzo Music

That off-brand Garfield, and mondays, and dog abuse, and shit... <3

Well 2018 is starting out with a bang content wise.

I didn’t get to finish watching this yet, but I really hope that Jeff plans to play through the whole game.

Also do I have to read the tie-in book or graphic novel to understand who the hell Gothfield/Punished Garfield is?

Strange seeing 2018's Old Game of the Year so early.

I mean, I'm not complaining, but Why?

Because ghost Garfield.

Just Lookin' At Hot Dogs In Video Games: The Jeff Gerstmann Story

Also, between Jeff's vore joke and Griffin McElroy's entire career, I'm baffled and horrified at how we got to the point in which at least 30% of the Garfield fetish content on the internet is entirely the product of a couple o' video gamesmen.

Jeff, I love you.

Gimme some of dat Jim Davis $$$$

This game undeniably inspired the inception of The Last Guardian.

Garfield and his evil version, Warfield

I swear Jeff's Garfield is just Ronald Reagan. Also where's Heathcliff?

Wow, not even a week in and Giant Bomb's already crowned their GOTY 2018? Jumping the gun a bit, Jeff.

You Kick my Dog. You damn right

Lost it at 27:50

I am not sure I want to watch 2 hours of this. Can someone convince me otherwise?

I uh... I think I wanna watch Jeff play through the rest of this game?...

The voice actor didn't know what he signed up for and gave his minimom effort and the devs were like "good enough".

HOT

BONE

STRATS

I caught the last 5 minutes of this live (at about 2:01:50) and Jeff just seemed genuinely angrier* about this game than I've seen him about anything in a while**.

*Angrier might not be the right word... Irritated by? I don't know, I just got the impression that Garfield Lasanga World Tour was putting Jeff in a real dark place. Maybe there's some outside context I missed from the previous 2 hours of the stream

**Except for maybe the "Best World" discussion

This Garfield's athleticism seems somewhat out of character.

Also, "'A soccer player's kit' is definitely something an American like Garfield would say"

this is a metaphor/allegory for the beginning of 2018, isn't it

It's about time this game got a retrospective.

Jeff you madman.

This is almost like playing Rascal on PS1

So is Encyclopedia Bombastica officially dead?

That GOD DAMN trumpet hook is TOO GOOD JEFF

Finally, quality content I can get behind.

Jeff: I'm playing the Garfield game, it's terrible!

Jeff's wife: You're terrible!

lol

Looks like 2018 is going to be the Year of Garfield on Giant Bomb. Long overdue, in my opinion.

@alternate: Watch the last 15-20 minutes of it. The Mexico stage is a gold mine of atrocities.

I'm glad we got to see Mexican City to really appreciate where the developers gave up completely.

And I'm pretty sure this voice actor is trying to do Bill Murray's Garfield which makes me pretty effing sad.
