14:53 I thought this was just Paul's general reaction to what was happening, but in the original scene from The Natural, a guy in the crowd says "Oh shit!" at this point as well. That's some awesome attention to detail, guys.
Slate Slurie here. Thanks guys for playing this game and making a great episode. I enjoyed this game a bunch as a kid. There's a guy on one team called Rustbucket. Also, Sammy Sosa is OP and has all of his stats maxed out. Local 485 for life.
Continue? Josh, I know this is almost two weeks old but I can't get enough of this. You got Paul mad and that awkward moment of silence when you wanted to get the last grand slam. Greatest thing ever. You need to show the clip of right when he got mad and you hot the grand slam.
I am not a big sports fan, but my favorite Continue? episodes are when you guys play sports game. You have Fantasy and Sci Fi month, why not a Sports month?
How can we suggest video games for you gentlemen to try? Or do we have to send a copy of the game for you to review it? And if we do send in a game, is it guaranteed to be reviewed? And how long is the duration between you receiving a game and publishing the review? Thanks.
You cant script that prob in my mind its the top five best moments of continue :) i will get back to you on the other four so manny good moments but i would put that one in my top five :)
Whenever I think of baseball/softball games I picture that stupid game Fred Savage was playing at the beginning of Princess Bride. This game looked like fun though. Thanks
It might just be me, but you guys look super worn out! I hope you're not running yourself into the ground with too much work guys, I love you all too much for you to burn out, so make sure you're resting enough!
So... that visual personality (i.e stereotypes) present in each of the teams in their caricatures during team selection is reduced to an emblem on the back of their generic tops in the actual game, with everyone wearing the same shorts, jeans or khakis... I feel lied to. On the bright side, there does seem to be at least some variance in bodytype and skin colour across the players, just a shame that collectively the teams all feel generic and interchangeable in practice.
Correct me if I'm wrong but that opening joke was a Ken Burn's Baseball reference right? I must be like 1 of 3 people in that much sought after "retro gaming let's play 15 hour long documentary officcionadist" demographic.
So, I've been watching a lot of the Continue? Sports games today. I've noticed that Josh will "accidentally" throw it to 3rd in every single baseball episode. It's uncanny.
you guys work hard. why doesn't hollywood jontron get off his ass and make a damn video half as often as you guys? i only go to normal boots for continue
Jontron videos have more content than just playing 30 mins, there is also investigation and research, but nonetheless he takes his goddamn time to release content. At least that's my opinion.
You guys are propping up Normalboots in a huge way. None of other partners except Jirard seem to put out timely content. Maybe they're just not taking NB seriously.

Silverward Hahaha. I'm glad someone noticed it!
Josh
I can't believe that it's already been six years.

14:22 "Alright I'll just hit this grand slam."
Everything about this part is just pure magic.
14:17 Pretty much the greatest thing that has ever happened in human history.
THANK YOU SAMMY SOSA. YOU'VE BROUGHT US ENLIGHTENMENT!
EPIC fucking ending. Just EPIC, plain and simple.
5:56 Paul Ritchey rehearses a line from his future porno. "We're not dead liftin' every other day for nothing guys LETS FUCK"
5:53 "We're not dead lifting for nothing, let's FUCK!"
This was the greatest game of Sammy sosa Softball Slam ever played.
usually only watch these episodes once but this is my 3rd time watching this episode. keep it up guys!!
Thanks for the rewatch! It helps us out a lot.
Had to come back to the greatest episode of Continue EVER ,, cheers boys 🍻💜
Continue? Josh, I know this is almost two weeks old but I can't get enough of this. You got Paul mad and that awkward moment of silence when you wanted to get the last grand slam. Greatest thing ever. You need to show the clip of right when he got mad and you hot the grand slam.
Thanks for enjoying the episode!
Josh
Hearing Dom's voice made me think of mustaches.
Amazing episode guys! I almost cried from laughter at the end! Keep up the great work!
Love that reference to Ken Burns' Baseball documentary! This was one of my favorite episodes of Continue?!
Continue has the fucking best running jokes
Epic Paulneuver needs to become a thing that shit was fuckin great! Hahah
Real talk doe, what even is Paul?
Second that!
I felt like some of your recent videos weren't my thing..
but then this
this was great. Keep it up boys
+1
I love this video so much. Love when you guys play baseball/softball games. They're so fun to watch.
This game looks like a blast to play with some friend. Just to make of it. The best episode yet!
With Continue? every episode is a grand slam!
I am not a big sports fan, but my favorite Continue? episodes are when you guys play sports game. You have Fantasy and Sci Fi month, why not a Sports month?
5 years, zero notice or appreciation for the absolute most fitting idea for another themed Continue? month
You guys rock, as usual
Thank you. (Kisses)
This was perhaps one of my favorite episodes you guys have ever done. Great work!
I just watched this twice through for like the third time. As a baseball fan, this is pretty close to my favourite thing ever.
There should be a shirt with Nick's portrait on it reading, "Hit button!" It's like his catch phrase.
8:09 The times when I wish they still used Ghost Love Score...
I noticed they stopped doing the Epic Maneuver a while back. Anyone know why?
Watched this right after Nintendo World Cup, Josh you earned your redemption. Epic
So happy Josh edited this one
Love the Ken Burns intro
I can't tell if this game's intro cutscene was edited for youtube or just really ahead of it's time.
Masterpiece either way.
great episode or greatest episode?
This is one of your best episodes guys. Keep them coming!
6:00 Paul:Guys lets.FUCK!
so good to see Josh win for once! also great ending.
HAHAHA, that editing at the end was hilarious guys. cheers.
Seems like you guys continue to outdo yourselves. This episode was awesome!
Ah can't wait for the normalboots episode...
This needs to be an anniversary event.
Classic Continue episode!!!!
This goes down as one of my favorites
"We're not deadlifting every day for nothing, let's fuck!"
-- Paul 2014
Wow that was fast
I want an orchestral version of the "Paulneuver" song
Ever time the ball was headed for center field, Josh in his head was thinking, "oh yeah. That's my bitch right there."
JonTron sent me; and you know what? He was...right! You guys are undervalued. This stuff is great!
ok, so... my name is TJ, and my dad yelled my name when I was at 9:30 in the video, right before they all yelled "TJ", that was weird hahaha
15:18 - Paul Ritchie, the face of defeat.
Still wish you guys would revive EM, really called for it here...
Great episode guys an the highlight of my Wednesday so far lol.
Love the Ken Burns reference to start the video off
How can we suggest video games for you gentlemen to try? Or do we have to send a copy of the game for you to review it? And if we do send in a game, is it guaranteed to be reviewed? And how long is the duration between you receiving a game and publishing the review?
Thanks.
Awesome editing Josh!
That line from signs made me laugh like a madman!
We’re not dead lifting every other day for nothing guys, let’s FUCK!
"I'm just gonna hit this Grand Slam." *Hits Grand Slam.*
You cant script that prob in my mind its the top five best moments of continue :) i will get back to you on the other four so manny good moments but i would put that one in my top five :)
Whenever I think of baseball/softball games I picture that stupid game Fred Savage was playing at the beginning of Princess Bride. This game looked like fun though. Thanks
Holy shit, Josh fucking killed it.
Id like to imagine that on the continue cast there's an extra chair where that picture of dom sits.
Its more like a shrine. We sacrifice goats there.
Continue? \m/ METAL!
Man, I lost it when they started singing Queen.
It might just be me, but you guys look super worn out!
I hope you're not running yourself into the ground with too much work guys, I love you all too much for you to burn out, so make sure you're resting enough!
All of that hanging out and gaming sure is tiring!
I love how Josh's beard is a different color from his hair
That's because THE BEARD IS FAKE
My life is a lie
Here after that horrible beating Paul just took! LMFAO!!
JOSH Softball MVP 2014-Forever

That fucking editing was amazing.
Never slide head first into turd base.
0:09 the blue monster in the background looks like foxy
To be honest, that was epic. All of it.
what's the name of the song that's playing under Dom's dialogue? it's gorgeous
Josh called the shit out of that, Babe Ruth style.
That Paulneuver was the best neuver I've ever seen... beautiful.
Correct me if I'm wrong but that opening joke was a Ken Burn's Baseball reference right? I must be like 1 of 3 people in that much sought after "retro gaming let's play 15 hour long documentary officcionadist" demographic.

I hate baseball, but the baseball episodes of Continue? are always the best.
I fucking loved this game as a kid.
Does anyone else think Paul looks a little bit like the main singer from Crown the Empire?
please,what is that piano music you used?
In Japan they have a mercy rule for games like these.
you guys work hard. why doesn't hollywood jontron get off his ass and make a damn video half as often as you guys? i only go to normal boots for continue
Jontron videos have more content than just playing 30 mins, there is also investigation and research, but nonetheless he takes his goddamn time to release content. At least that's my opinion.
LMFAO Granola Daniel omfg lololololooool
It's the power of the beard.
Don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time, I'm havin' a "soft" ball, Nick. jk. lol.
I really want to play some softball now!
Yes! Another Josh edited episode! These excrete hilarity.
I wish Continue would just play baseball games all the time. I love these episodes... and I'm not a big baseball fan in the slightest.
I want a Continue? rematch with different teams.
Well.. I've actually been trained to go to normalboots.com to get the next episode. I feel weird
I fucking love Granola Daniels, great stuff guys. (sorry if I fucked up the spelling of the name).
So....does Sammy even have anything to do with this game? lol
Holy shit, that call at the end.
bro, is there any way i can get the full version for the game
You guys are propping up Normalboots in a huge way. None of other partners except Jirard seem to put out timely content. Maybe they're just not taking NB seriously.
"Everyone's got feet like my kitty cat"
Somehow I keep forgetting that handsome bastard Nick is married.
Holly Crap!!! Hey Josh we gotta wrap the game up man. Alright Paul I'll just hit this grand slam, CRACK!!! Why not?!?!
Cant believe they programmed in fear. Thats hilarious. Also the lack of people in the stands adds to the realism.
lol the male accountant looks like Nostalgia Critic
2:34
Paul "Sega Channel" Ritchey
What is the name of that baseball movie that they used the clip of at the end?
The Natural. I love that movie
Thank you!!!
