Jeff Gerstmann, Dreamcast on Good Morning America

[DasKomet]

Oh god Jeff looks young here.

[Nibbs47]

I REALLY like that site of his, Giant Bomb.

[Hammerzeiterrr]

videogames com

[Hammerzeiterrr]

his voice sounds so different

[StMarciano]

He wasn't joking he did wear a FUBU jersey.Ajajaja poor LL Cool J.

[MrBurgundy76]

"you plug this into the tv" DERP

[dikkeroege]

I especially liked the tractor driving by.

[Cralfinsamhiemnater]

This is sort of embarrassing to watch for some odd reason.

[Aaronthereal1]

I'm a wizard, and that is fucked up.

[bub777]

did the other game crash? I'm hearing a repetitive noise in the background when they started playing Ready-2-Rumble.

[Forcen]

@bub777 The music in ready-2-rumble is glitching like mad. Click the annotation 30 sec in to hear Jeff talk about this appearance.

[dcgcPTYT]

Jeff was thinking to himself by the time the glitch sound appeared: "Don't laugh, don't laugh!"

[TimAllen624]

Dammit Jeff is too smooth with ladies.

[ralphredimix]

I remember that he was just happy that he said, "IN THE PIPE" on GMA.

[CrazNin]

And the quick look was born...

[Andy205040]

Ahh 1999..

[urbanNatsu]

young jeff!

[cruellordsoth]

ITS THE BIG LIVE LIVE SHOW LIVE

[HenryKrinkle666]

@cruellordsoth And this time, we`re gonna do it live!

[britman]

Arrrgggg - Jeff looks like a baby.  Christ I'm old.

[ph51]

Jeff lookin all kinds of fresh. 

[wheedler]

Jeff saying "Playstation 2" sounded really weird.

[sublime90]

jesus christ how embarrassing a live audio glitch during a televised segment lol

[Fauxity]

I hear the next Sega console is going to have tons of moves.

[funforalgernon]

Stick and move, stick and move!

Jeff gets in a sweet Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! reference.

[NEB0NES]

HOW MANY MORE MOOOOOVES?!



[icanhazplatinum]

Only jeff would wear a fubu shirt on national TV

[thisisntmyname]

I don't know why but I laughed at Jeff's "girl boxers" line.

[eriko23]

whoa, Diane Sawyer touched his leg.

[Underchiever007]

I wonder how many moves the next console generation will have.

[kurtdyoung]

How many more moves per video game, jeff?

[TheBaconlaser]

Diane Sawyer should be a co-host on Attack of the Show.

[EiermannTelevision]

thats no sound glitch its the industrial soundtrack to the game

[eyenanamuse]

You can definitely tell it's the 90's. Check out that sweet FUBU jersey!

[DirtMcGurt024]

They should have told her Michael Jackson was unlockable in Ready2Rumble. Maybe SEGA would still be around.

[Naxwell]

Jeff looks like a baby in this. So young!

[TritoneMcgee]

lol Jeff is like Beaver Cleaver here.

[CH3BURASHKA]

This is absolutely amazing. I didn't know Jeff was even alive in 1999.

Did other TV channels run anything similar for any other system? I can't remember...

[Lab3920]

Dennis Lee forever.

[rawker617]

It's awesome to see how far "moves" have come in the years of game consoles on our TV's and our computer screens.

[JacksInn]

this is so fucking hilarious on so many levels.

[AzangoGOOG]

T"here's even some girl boxers in the game." ORLY!?

[ultimat3man]

Hey Gerstmann, theres a spider above your head

[pikapanda]

Awwwwww, look how cute and quiet and reserved Jeff is!

...I never thought I'd see myself saying that, wow.

[drewbles22]

LMAO she said "how many more moves" like it's just one game EVER

[Gdayguy36]

Wow this is the oldest video i've ever seen of jeff.

[doublezeroduck]

I would bang the shit out of Diane Sawyer

[solidwolf52]

it's so funny to see jeff being all quite and reserved

[dudeguy707]

So how many more moves does this have?

[OfallyaProductions]

who's the asian fellow?

[marsshepard]

Diane Sawyer should not have even been allowed to host a show about video games. "How many more moves does it have?" What does she think Dreamcast was, an entire console for fighting games? "I don't know which one I am so I'm just going to punch at you randomly." If she doesn't know who her character is how could she even punch at someone else? Oh, and whoever they had from Sega was worthless. They probably wanted him to say something since its his company's console.

[CameraShyLimited]

You Mr. Gerstmann are under dressed. Normally I would be appalled by such an action but that you had the guile to go on GMA in a hockey jersey.

I commend you sir.

[TargetRender]

way to go Jeff.  This was before his blonde phase.

[Beltzer0072]

Soul Caliber and Dead or Alive 2 are my favorite Dreamcast games

[WEKS87]

Wooo, Giant Bomb!

[shooshooshooshooter]

WHOA, DUDER!!!

[LogicImplosion]

This is the greatest thing ever.

[hollitz]

They are going to be on your televisions.

[Dante369]

Got it in.

[cohenandloynds]

WOAH! Check out Lil' Jeff.

[jarvis911]

Man i remember Ready2Rumble boxing that was some awesome game.

[Emandudeguyperson]

Hell yeah.

[Nubs926]

Jeff is rocking a sweet haircut.

[LoneHero2]

Where did you get this!?

[Forcen]

Gametrailers

[purphanz]

THE GERST!!

"the John Candy of videogame jouornalism"

[shocktrooper42]

I see it that Ryan is the Patton Oswalt of video game journalism lol

[Va1entine82]

You better not slag of the game Jeff or your get fired lol!!!

[R0b0R0bb]

wow, that sound glitch made me laugh. Awkward! :)

[0reoK0okeez]

GOOD GOD LOOK AT THOSE STUNNING GRAPHICS!!!

I can't believe we used to think this was amazing....lol

[munnyman5]

I remember the first time I thought "wow, that's some realistic shit" was when they started putting breathing animations in 3D games.

[snipeshow47]

im sure jeff was so excited to play nfl 2k

[lingeramas]

OMG

Jeff looks soooo young hahaha awsome

[fascist]

Wow he is so much younger (10 years) and looks thinner, maybe just the video quality though.

[TheFreeman13]

woot go jeff!

[happygamer91]

"how many more moves?"

lol

[Isomeri]

I love how out of it the host is.

[CraigAA1028]

Wow Jeff looks....exactly the same lol THough he has a very boyish hair cut

[kobewars87]

you know...for next gen that looks pretty shitty.

[danteliveson]

When did she touch his leg??

[iscrewy]

lol they were talking about n64 xbox and sega something i dont really care for sega i hate them because of microcosm

[carlzz36]

lol jeff is so casual he wears a hockey top and shorts to a interview on good morning america

[Boredflem1]

Thats Jeff. The best journalist out there on the face of this giant rock.

[TheJWS]

He's a biased fuck and I'm joyous he got fired from Gamestop for his botched Kane and Lynch review.

[Boredflem1]

how is he biased? he writes reviews for nearly every kind of game, gives them honest, well thought out scores. kayne and lynch wasn't THAT bad i guess but it was rather ugly and pretty lazyily made if you ask me.

[TheJWS]

he doesn't rate games so much as shit on them. he focuses on the bad things and then judges them based on how little shit he spews onto them.

if he likes a game, he'll shit very little on it and say very few shitty things about it - but also very few positives.

and when he doesn't like a game - she shits on it, nitpicking every minor flaw that DOES NOT interfere with gameplay and then points out maybe one or two good things when there are litterily hundreds of them.

maybe i should make a vid..

[Boredflem1]

what was so good about kayne and lynch? give an example of "when he doesn't like a game - he shits on it, nitpicking every minor flaw that DOES NOT interfere with gameplay and then points out maybe one or two good things when there are litterily hundreds of them."

[TheJWS]

watch any other review for any game -not just knl - and youll see he just shits on it in a condescending tone.

also, he just tells you whether or not he liked the game.

THATS NOT REVIEWING A GAME. Thats just saying whether or not you liked it.

EXAMPLE: I don't like the Beatles. Does that mean I think they're a crappy band? Fuck no. It just means that I don't like them. They're an amazing band that, while I don't like, get an A+.

[Boredflem1]

for the orange box? he talked about the good and bad points. For zelda TP? he talked about its ups and downs. The darkness? he talked about its ups and downs. For guitar hero? he talked about its ups and downs. For prey, halo 3, bioshock, gears of war, kayne and lynch, battlefield bad company (On giantbomb).

Just shut up kid you know you're wrong.

[TheJWS]

let's look at his reviews: orange box - amazing, every game was gold zelda TP - sucked, nothing new, just like every other game... but that also made it good :P guitar hero - gold, although it's now getting repetitive halo 3 - he shat on it because of it's focus on online play bioshock - he preyed on it because it was different GoW - proof he has downsydrome KnL - see GoW battlefield - generic war game bad company - fun, new, and for whatever reason: bad ...? You're supporting this ass clown???

[Boredflem1]

You have obviously never seen any of his reviews, you are a total hypocrite to say that someone else has down syndrome. watch a fe of em. Just know what you are talking about.

[Bionicles2006]

@TheJWS What the heck are you talking about? Jeff thought Bad Company was awesome and gave it a 5 star.

[bloxxorz]

@carlzz36 it seems to me that jeff is ALWAYS wearing shorts

[paulspydar]

is that sound glitch at the time? or from the uploader?

[Forcen]

That was a live sound glitch, from the Dreamcast.

Notice that they all ignore it at first, then they turned the volume down.

[R0b0R0bb]

Jeff had great eyebrows back then!

[2PeteShakur]

haha good times! The Dreamcast kicked-ass!

look at jeff and the SEGA analyst! hehehe

The presenter at the end goes "This is bewtiful!" lol :)

[C1y3p3h3e7r]

He looks so young and fresh!

[Termite551]

Ahaha, Jeff's like "How many more moves?....."

[moviewatch0001]

How many more moves Jeff? Answer the damn question.

[joey2683]

Haha, Come on how ridiculous is this! In so many ways! Yes it's a console, no it's not comming to PC's and not's called "The Sega" Any other news story and I'm sure that she would have done some research so she doesn't sound like an idiot. Jeff looks so young.

[NoWaiBoss]

always with the shorts, good stuff.

[lordandypandy]

Haha, this is funny!

[whamii]

lol @ jeff
