forgot about these, huh.

Huh.

indeed

He found Vinny's secret work stash.

must have been some good shit.


Seriously though it was funny hearing drew laughing so much in QL.

 

[def sim]

that was weird

 

[kadotsu]

that was weird

It was like a goddess appearing and vanishing in a flash.

[daydream]

I missed it.

Was it a picture of Lightning?

 

[Dany]

what did i miss.

 

[kvothe]

It's funny how relevant the "This is Phil Fish" video is to the Nomura point. It is funny because I have proof that he has watched the video yet he is committing the same tokenization with some added hasty generalization.

No. Nomura is the Nickelback of that video, not the Phil Fish.

 

[Dany]

Drews first question in the UFC QL "Do the Guys wear cups?"

 

[mattiewheels]

So Vinny and Alex work in the same office as TV Guide and Vinny helps them out occasionally? I hope that lady is ready for the weird GB fans after showing up in the video.

I've seen someone already dub her the 'new babs,' whatever that means.

Bombcast

 

[W1SSY]

New Bombcast is up.

 

[Haunted]

Vinny jumping ship to TVGuide in 3...2...

 

[Tunesmith]

Uncanny valley UFC Jeff is the greatest!

 

[Balehead]

Jeff was robbed in that last fight, those strikes were clearly to the back of the head.

 

[Warewolf]

Giancarlo introduced as "New Guy"?

Is Varanini the new hire?? Or is that a wrestling reference I missed?

I'm so confused!

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Huh

Lets see it

 

[Gurrry]

I got UFC over the weekend and its fucking amazing. Im not even a UFC fan and Ive been having a shit ton of fun with the game. I look forward to hearing what the GB guys think...

 

[shadyspace]

This has to be the worst bombcast lineup ever.

 

[Majine]

"Football"? Are they talking about handegg? :]

 

[Mully]

 

[Tucah]

Giancarlo and Alexis? eh okay

 

[Keyser Soze]

I guess I will make a Bombcast thread

 

[demidar]

That's an early Bombcast.

 

[hitgirl]

Hah. I hate you, that's funny

I'd like to take time out of this thread to say...

I'm really happy for Vinny. Seems like he's exactly where he wants to be and this TV Guide connection seems like it'll only help him down the road

TV GUIDE IS ON THE UP AND UP! (Seriously though I'll watch stuff Vinny does because I think he's very tentacled at what he does.

 

[TharpDaddy]

I wonder if we'll see a Mailbag: NY Edition. I find Mailbags to be weirdly entertaining.

 

[AuthenticM]

I wonder if they will do a special livestream on Monday to introduce Dan and the other guy.

 

[StopMakingSense]

Giancarlo introduced as "New Guy"?

It's a old joke about when he was jumping from site to site because he was cursing them and causing them to close, and a review he wrote for some game for a site (ign?) got people mad, and people were yelling about this "new guy" hating on this thing they liked, despite having been writing about games for ages.

 

[Tunesmith]

So I decided to try out GameFace, I think I just found Jeff's Russian cousin.

(can't modify any facial features once in-game so this is what the game decided based on a bad UPF capture)

It was Too Human for 1up. It led to one of the greatest videos in GB history.

Just you watch, this will actually become a rumor some people will seriously believe.

I seem to recall Jeff saying how that one video changed exactly how they approached things at GB and set the course for the site as we know it.

Basically, there's an argument that it's the most important video they've ever done.

Jeff looks like he is joining the cast of Duck Dynasty.

I take it you don't happen to recall exactly when/where? Would love to hear about that.

That is pretty interesting. I honestly think among everything they've done, it might still be my favorite video of theirs. Just set the tone for everything to come.

Giancarlo's Strider love warms my heart.

I just finished the new strider a couple of days ago. I thought it was pretty good

Make black Jeff

[stump sock]

that UFC quicklook could have been one of the most routine, uninteresting videos on the site... if it weren't for the nightmare vision of Virtual Jeff making it into a surreal horror show.

I would probably actually buy that game if I could have VJ as a playable character.

 

[Kelas]

CITY OF THIEVES OR NOTHING

That one was so good I bought it twice! I always liked Creature of Havoc too because it was such a neat idea, even though I never completed it. I remember getting myself stuck in a series of looping paths, not being able to find the one correct route and just giving up.

 

[mattiewheels]

If we can make requests for what goes in the OP subscriber video reccomendations, I'd really recommend that the TNT with Brad Muir where they play Alter Echo and they make fun of his ska band. 2/21/13. Some nice insight into the developer's side of things, and it's a good roast for Brad.

 

[Indignate]

All I'm hearing is that Denis Dyack had a hand in helping Giant Bomb become what it is today.

 

[Wereroku]

So Jeff's twitter made me check amazon and the Retron 5 is back in stock in black if anyone is interested. They have $10 tacked on but not bad in comparison to the other offers.

 

[Myggen]

He's the hero we deserve.

 

[Chance Hale]

The UFC Jeff was a bit off in the animation and proportion but on the other hand holy shit that looked a lot like Jeff. Really cool!

Looks more like Dave Snider.

 

[caleb1915]

Oh man that gameface was amazing, he's got some virtual pain and anger in those eyes.

 

[hamchan]

First episode of How To Build A Beast was amazing and Alex just tweeted that Vinny is helping the TV Guide people (I'm assuming) film an interview with Ben Savage. Giant Bomb East!

Uh oh, CBS has realized Vinny's true talents and will now use him for bigger and better things than some video game website.

 

[Odrion]

Vinny jumping ship to TVGuide in 3...2...

What I was thinking as well.

"We got a office in NY!" Nah, I think that Vinny wanted to move to NY and CBSi offered him the ability to work at TV Guide while doing Giantbomb on the side. Alex writes (wrote?) for TV.com as well.
