Tonight, on Anon Babble Gear

Hammond explores his EXTENSIVE Playstation 5 games collection...

May shows off how easy it is to get into Linux gaming...

And I finally save up enough money to buy a Nintendo Switch 2 and one game.

Reminds me of my favorite bit from the whole show

I won't be participating in this thread because I'm not funny, but just know that I think this thread will be interesting and I'll be monitoring it silently.

Bad news! The Marathon reboot... it's delayed!

"while Clarkson's asleep, we decided to pull a little prank on him - slightly disconnecting the 12VHPWR on his brand new RTX 5090, so that when he wakes up and decides to play some vidya..."

"HAMMOND!"

Bumpin and lurkin

same

May gets autistically dedicated to League of Legends

Clarkson and Hammond stroll in trying to help and queue with him

they ruin every single game until he loses his mind

TONIGHT on cheap rig challenge

Hammond installs malware

James forgets his drivers

And I play Crysis on a pentium 4

Clarkson:

Protoypical 360 era dudebro, pivoted to PC Master Race evangelist when all the exclusives dried up, exclusively plays AAA and multiplayer shooters and starts shopping for upgrades if he run something at maxed out 4k 240fps

May:

Former Sony fanboy who gave up on them when they shut down Japan Studio (read: massive weeb), extensive collection of imports, mostly plays obscure JP-only PS2 releases on original hardware with an upscaler these days

Hammond:

Nintendo loyalist, borderline casual gamer. Started branching out into emulating classic games at May's suggestion, but Clarkson keeps insisting that he use terrible AI upscaled texture packs on everything

tonight, on Top Game

Hammond tries to backwards longjump through the BBC offices

James plays Oldschool Runescape wrong

And I powerslide into Todd Howards face

blending beef

Fucking bongs.

May always was the real wild one of the bunch

I went on the internet this week, and I found this

It's always nice when v forgets their petty tribal rivalries and comes together to enjoy Top Gear.

CLARKSOOOOON
YOU PILLOCK

This is just what Linus Tech Tips does that everyone on Anon Babble hates them for.

you will never own a P50

Now, we all loved NVIDIA cards until they got into all the AI nonsense. Well, as it turns out, there's a new way. This RTX card starts out in life as s a 5070, then a Swiss company throws out all the AI nonsense, ups the clock speed by 2GHz, adds more VRAM, and they fit, I have to say, a brilliant carbon fiber cooler on it, so it's 20C cooler. But, but, l think there's a problem with this card. They've called it "The Growler."

NO ANON! Why did you post Clarkson's wife? Jannies aren't gonna like this.

Captain Slow did have good taste

s1 of our man was so perfect, then they just tried way too hard

May: Now here's the really interesting bit, Linux is just a kernel. When we talk about Linux gaming we're really talking about is PC Gaming on the combination of the GNU user space and the Linux kernel. I built my own machine just this morning using the latest AMD hardware, and a distribution of GNU/Linux called Arch by the way. The performance is simply phenomenal when running Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall.

Adulthood is realizing that Captain Slow was the funniest one of the trio.

Yes, James, and now tell the nice ladies and gentlemen how long it took you to do all the that. No wait, please don't, because we actually recorded it! However, due to the unique way the BBC is funded the cameras ran out of film at the 63-hour mark, and we just gave up and went home.

When I hit 30 a couple of years ago I realised I've become James May except not rich.
Just want to be left alone to play video games in my free time, constantly talk about The War with my father-in-law.
I should start smoking a pipe instead of cigarettes to fit type.

does eurotruck simulator have sports lorries? Asking for a friend

kek

Hammond: Ah! But now you don't have to do any of that yourself because of this! The Lenovo Legion Go S SteamOS Edition!

As you can imagine, I did this properly

no, but it does have the big lorries and you can create your own paintjobs.

And I finally save up enough money to buy a Nintendo Switch 2 and one game.

What is the unironic Dacia Sandero of vidya?

mount and blade 2

I liked Italy ok but mostly just because I like Italy

there's a vidya joke to be made with this episode but I can't think of something clever

Does that mean we're not extracting, then?

Wait... wrong version of the show...

With all the talk of fortnite, we thought a child had gotten loose in the studio. Turns out, it was just Richard Hammond.

Couild work with GPU prices.

rewatching that real quick right now

I just bought that? How much have I paid for it?

god that whole sequence was fucking hilarious but most people only remember May having to buy a piece of shit solely bc he kept waiting

The older I got.
The more I appreciated James May

Our first GPU up for bidding is a geforce 256

Hammond: I'm having it, let's just get it over with, and I'm pretty sure my grandad hand built the ccoolers for these cards. I can probably play some source games on that!

Our next GPU for bidding is a 8800gtx, with no owner history, and a questionable cooling fan

Clarkson: here we go, good old classic speed and power

*2 hours later*

Clarkson: James you HAVE to buy a card, there's no more auctions left

May: WATCH THIS

Our next GPU for bidding is a Geforce FX 5200, bidding starts at 900 pounds

*Hammond and Clarkson explode into laughter*

May: 900 QUID?!

Good news!

I really need to figure out how to make custom liveries and shit in ETS, that model Renault (or one very close) is already one of the default trucks in the game.

I don't give two shits about Top Gear, but I love the ymfah videos he does with the guys. This thread made me check to see if he has a new one and he uploaded one just a few weeks ago. Thanks anon

hullo

Now listen here you great ocean going pillock

breaks Stalin's house

still hasn't been sent to the gulag

May operates on his own code of law.

You disappoint me, Ramsay.

It terrifies me to think of what May's true power level may be.

If you're a woman, hello!

Best thread on Anon Babble right now

James, my load order doesn't work, I want to make my Dragonborn cute and pretty!

You'll have to run Nemeisis first so you can have all those posing animations you've downloaded. Then you'll have to run Body Slide to make your character look good, you can use the preset morphs I installed for you. Then you have to to make sure you have xp32 skeleton otherwise you'll just crash the game when you try to pose your character. Load all those clothes you downloaded last, you've got to make sure they're not conflicting with anything else otherwise you'll just end up with pink textures. on second thought just run xedit and loot and jot down any error messages, yeah??

Yeah......

I recently got into Top Gear Classic and each of the other hosts individual stuff thanks to ymfah's Bottom Gear so this thread came at a perfect time.

Explain this show appeal to a non brit

Good thread

Does Clarkson do any shows on his own?

qrd on their political views?

m8

i cannot enjoy something unless i first know the creator’s politics

Sad. Many such cases.

I can though. Political views is extra sauce.

I'm not your mate, faggot.

They are kind of funny.
t. non-Brit who doesn’t care about cars

yeah you're no one's mate

Don't call me your mate then, retard.

Cheeky old British wankers drive cars (and sometimes other motorized/electric vehicles) with some kind of challenge or gimmick, with lots of banter and antics to be had. If there's one British show you should watch as a non-Brit, make it this. You don't even have to be into cars or anything to enjoy it (I'm not).
Those videos were fantastic. The very end of the most recent one was gold.

Clarkson's farm is kino
James May in Japan is kino (Italy is much less so), James May Great Explorers is historical kino where's episode 4 you cockknob?
I don't care about Hammond

I like how the bongs had a singular good tv show and then they killed it

I don't care about Hammond

Brainiac was pretty interesting when I saw it on G4 when I was younger.
That's why they made The Grand Tour

i haven't heard about great explorers, tell me more
reassembler level kino or beano?

Will check those out, thanks.

Why would I ever support someone who is antiwhite?
Sorry you hate yourself lad.

Amazon is American

Some say that he can install Gentoo without reading a guide and that his desktop background is a picture of his desktop

All we know is that he's called the Stig

stiggy.png - 1920x1080, 2.22M

clarkson

anti-white

Never said they were. Just saying why their politics matter.
You refused to elaborate.
And it's
Antiwhite.
No hyphen anon.

KIRYU NOOOOOOO

Hammond was the most underrated one and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.

dude crushed 2 expensive cars and survived

And then Amazon got the spiritual successor and killed it too.

Does Clarkson do any shows on his own?

lol yes
a lot of his best stuff was before he was even on new top gear

this thread made me laugh

I am not a bit and i don't care about cars, i watch the show because the 3 lads are funny as fuck.

I assume you mean the 2002 show with Clarkson, Hammond, and May, classic is the 1977 one.

They should be properly named as classic, 3 stooges and nu-gear.

walks into show

pretends he invented it

shouts at everyone and anything

how many kinds of glue was the beeb sniffing??

What kind of glue does Ferrari use?

the kind that's very combustible

Clarkson is old school conservative but mostly on economy and hating commies and people who want to ban v8s
May is liberal but again old school so more national health and less tranny tranny tranny
hammond will support anything if it helps pay his alimony
keep in mind uk is nowhere near as partisan and wedge issue oriented as the us

the one with hammond and tory was such a good concept but was just fucking atrocious scripted zoomer garbage
I assume they didn't get along and had no chemistry

thank you for the qrd

he was the glue for may-clarkson kino by giving them a common target

I
WEAR A HAT
RICHARD
WEARS A HAT

worth noting that above all they are friends and stood by eachother through everything, and politics in the show mainly consists of making fun of all politicians and clarkson hating any regulation that prevents him from driving the loudest V24 at 90mph in a school zone while may complains the police haven't found his bike
they all make fun of gays and women

they use nothing but the best, especially in the wheel arches

Those Atelier games that keep coming out for some reason

Tonight, on Anon Babble gear

James fails to purchase a porn game on an archaic Japanese website

Hammond crashes another PC

and I spend all my time browsing an internet message board instead of playing some vidya

parasocial friendships before social media really distilled the formula

You don't even have to be into cars or anything to enjoy it (I'm not).

This
My friend showed it to me, despite me not being a car guy, and I love it
I then showed my gf at the time a few episodes and she started watching it on her own

and james wears a hat with THINGS on it

It's the best car show because it's not about cars. I don't give a fuck about cars and I'm not British either. Those 3 men had the best chemistry in television history

Which of the trio would you replace with Matt LeBlanc?

matt.jpg - 500x502, 187.99K

Hammond being unabashedly in love with American cars is based
even if a lot of them suck now

may you idiot you can't run games on an Arc A310

You could tell me this was AI generated and I'd believe it.

Clarkson. Honestly have no idea how an international audience could ever stand Clarkson. He's just such a dickhead. He's not, like, the anti-christ like some people portray him, but he's just so fucking annoying and unlikable. Practically anyone would've been an improvement.

Nah.

Everything the dickhead says just drips of egotism and little brother energy. You'd have to be like him to like him.

tell us more about how you got beat up in school like a bitch

alright, here's the system32 folder

Hammond said if I just delete that my games will work

I want to play Gran Turismo 2 of PlayStation 1, but I only want to use cars that give me the impression that I'm a man who is inferior to women in every way.

lol the le seyde does have that effect. mitsuoka makes great frankencars that are half 1963, half 2005.

and James wears a Burger King crown

it's got full upscaling support unlike your graphics card from the middle ages.

no one cares if you have ai upscaling support. But even still, I have upscaling support. It's called lowering your render resolution in the settings.

chaps, I got a notification from the producers. It says "Since your graphics cards all have the power of something from 2010, you will play games from 2010. But all the benchmarks will be run in Directx10."

oh cock

what's wrong James?

I can't run Directx10

why not?

The Intel Arc doesn't support Directx10

*laughing

Average Yakuza side story intro

It was quite possibly the most popular TV show on the planet in its prime. Fucking everyone watched it, the lads would be swarmed with fans in every country with regular access to television.
Turns out that cars, mechanical mayhem, and British wit are a killer combination.

Check out ymfah on youtube, he makes challange run videos of Souls games but really well peoduced and edited and framed in some funny format. He has several done in the style of Top Gear episodes (called Bottom Gear) and they are hillarious.

we know, but please stop shilling your videos here

Duke Nukem Forever

its not funny at all faggot

send him to India

it's obviously a miserable experience

get so little usable footage that wouldn't just highlight how much of a shithole it is that it has half the episode count of the other seasons

Clarkson is the wild one

May was the quiet funny one

Hammond played the straight man that kept them from going too far. Until you get the latinaeious involved

Each of them had a part to play which is what made it so good. You just can't have one without the others that's why they bailed with Jezza.

He was a good punching bag. May is just too likable to be in the barrel all of the time, so shifting the ire to Hammond helped the balance of things.

lol I was in that thread.
Pretty kino.
