Conan O’ Brien takes a swing at Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis

Conan O’ Brien is probably my favorite late night comedian in the history of the medium. His sarcasm, sense of humor, and comedy skits have made me tear up from laughing on more than one occasion. He’s also quite an intelligent guy if you really listen to his longform interviews. One of the recurring, popular segments from Conan are his game reviews.

Since his jump from NBC to TBS, the Conan show aired recurring segments called Clueless Gamer. In these clips, Conan would receive a video game from different publishers and deliver his hilarious commentary while playing the game. His co-host, Aaron Bleyaert, acts a nice foil with Conan O’ Brien. His much more knowledgeable persona really makes these segments come together.

A spinoff of the show was released in podcast form called Good Game Nice Try. Conan O’ Brien and the rest of the squad review Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis. Aaron Bleyaert explains the core concept of PSO2: New Genesis, while Conan comments on all the “Pokémon” and “lightsabers.” He really digs the art style! The best part is them musing about the size of their hands and thighs in the character creation.

You can check out the full video above. Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis comes out June 9 for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox One X/S.
