I think Conan's getting a bit long in the tooth.

Does anyone honestly find Conan very funny? He just seems like one of those people who tries really really hard to be funny and ends up meh.

@Spartan117458 I definitely enjoyed Conan a lot more when he was doing intentionally weird things, like The Year 2000 or hijacking tours at Universal. Now that he just does little cutaway sketches, and they're trying way too hard.

As funny as this started out, the inevitable slow decline of quality started, as with most things Conan does.
Still, good on these guys for not constantly hating on gaming like the rest of the world seems to do.

Where's the beef? How should I know?
On topic: it's the sad truth of Batman Beyond. Poor Bruce.

A guy who is outnumbered 20 to 1 in a fight and walks away from it unharmed and everyone else still alive but unconscious is not too old for anything.

@LaughingTarget You're getting uncomfortably close to declaring an opinion on whether or not he could beat Wolverine in a fight.

I've never heard of this Conan fellow, but that was pretty funny.

How? This is a stupid thing to say. Just because he was created that long ago, Doesn't mean we are playing him at age 50+ in the game...
The games are awesome and have a quality that alot of games lack.
He is just being a dick.

@LEONLEONLEON That was called humor. I'm pretty sure they weren't being serious.

I'd say that this is what I think of when you say typical British humour:

Who the hell is this dude... I don't punch and kick people... because it's violent... which is why I play games to do it instead... :)

Seems as if all the people on joystiq have never heard of jokes.

@mistahnuff
Some gamers just get really butthurt if you have fun at the expense of the game they sadly invest their entire personality into.
The bit wasn't funny, though. It's sad that people are using it as a blanket statement to attack Conan, and American humor as a whole (really?); both of which can be really funny.

@mistahnuff Not all jokes are funny. This one was clearly trying too hard.

It wasnt funny but he wasnt being a dick...if you dont know who Conan O Brian is i'm sure you dont dabble much in humor so you shouldnt even be upset since you dont know who the guy is.

Some of his skits are rather lame(such as this one), but the guy himself has an incredibly good sense of humor.

I liked it. I like Conans sense of humor. It's not for everyone.

I think it was funny and also a tribute to this awesome video game. I like that the late night comics are starting to accept gaming as a major form of entertainment.

Conan's quality has declined a little in recent years, but give the man some credit. While Jay Leno was being (characteristically) horrible and Letterman on auto-pilot half of the time, Conan had the funniest damned show in Late Night. It's just a particularly lame clip.

He's not being a dick, that implies he's malicious in his intent. He's just not being funny!

Eh, it was a lame sketch, but Conan is the funniest Late night host currently, he could've done better.

the late night talk show is as old, does that mean it's too old and wears diapers? of course not, but in his case maybe it should, since it's crap everywhere.

If Conan is doing this stuff, he's become just as corrupt as the people that screwed him over on that other channel. Now he's trying to bully things just like they bullied him. Seems like Conan really doesn't exist anymore if you think about it. Just a guy that looks like him

I think you are reading into a simple bit a little too much.
It wasn't hilarios, by any means, but calling him a BULLY?
wow..just, wow.

Made me smile and chuckle a little, that's what it's there for, and I'm a huge Batman fan. Lighten up people.

pushed play on this video twice, saw a commercial. muted my laptop and then clicked another browser tab and forgot about this. 'replay' also replays the commercial. i guess i will just have to believe this is funny as I can't force myself to sit through even one single commercial. Like the song SAIL - I'm going to blame it on my A.D.D.
