How dare he point out things while he's recording QLs, let the guys discover things for themselves.

Drew's much worse, with his revisionist WWII bullshit.

Really, Africa was involved in world war II? I must've slept through that scene in Saving Private Ryan or in Schindler's List. smh.

If we're gonna be upset with Drew, it should really be for his crushing the dreams of all Minnesotans by lying to them and saying they can't go have their outer space karaoke bar for an assortment of nonsense reasons like "You can't breathe in space" and "There's no sound in space"
 
Seems it's going to be a request show like they did during the Steam sale for UPF, probably a good choice with limited staff.
 
so i've been listening to the early bombcasts at work and boy, 2008 brad had a lot more of a california-surfer-dude tone and disposition than he does now. Like, i wonder if he was heavily into jazz cigarettes at the time or something.

It sounds super weird, haha.

I picked an 08 podcast at random to see for myself and I got this one where within the first three minutes Brad declares "I hope to some day encounter a burger the size of a bed"

which yknow what, me too.
 
This poster for the PAX Rumble is incredible.

I just finished the Silent Hill PT quick look. Did Patrick get the "true ending" in the full spooks video?

Game looks amazing and stressed me the hell out watching it.

nope, at some point he gave up once he realized that it was going to be some weird obtuse BS to get the ending and just pulled up a video of it.
 
If we are gonna bitch about people from Giant Bomb, then i want to get something off my chest. Remember that one time when the far cry 4 cover was revealed and everyone including Patrick thought it was racist? My impression as a Bengali person of the villain was that he's from asian decent and thought nothing special about it, and i remember Klepek reacting to Ubisofts answer being something like , "yea looks like a white guy to me". I don't know it kinda bothered me in a way that it was outrage(or faux outrage) for a thing he does not have actual knowledge of. I did not care to follow that thing at all as it has no bearing at all anymore i guess. But that comment of him really irked me the wrong way, while to be fair it a was popular opinion at the time i guess? I really enjoy his output and contributions to the site, but i can't bring myself to give him a free pass on that one thing.
 
Is there any good way to send Patrick a message besides his email? His Tumblr ask box is locked to registered users only, and it's too long form to tweet.

PM.

I was going to do that saying I hope he follows thru on his tentative plan to play thru all of Fatal Frame 2, and maybe include his wife.
 
What caused Jeff to be so immovably galvanized against Android? He seems so willfully ignorant about it. The silly misinformation he espoused in the Unfinished: Crawl video reminded me of this.
 
Boo! Patrick said on the morning show that The Walking Dead (the TV show) is horrible. WHAT!?

Well, he is correct.
After ABC cut the budget and fired the director (or whatever his job description was) after Season 1 it was just terrible. I liked Season 1 though

All of them look like the same person. Is it the artist's style or is that a pretty good summary of game journalism diversity?

From left to right:
No idea - Dave Lang - No idea - no idea - Johnny V - Jef...I mean Dr Tracksuite, Eric Pope, John Drake, Dan Ryckert, The IGN guys whose name i can't remember. And Alex above them all. I don't know the rest.
 
There are three women in that picture.

And I recognise at least half of the white dudes.

Drake doesn't look much like Drake, but Pope, Johnny V,Lang, and :D are all dead on.

For the ladies, I'm guessing it's L-R Samantha Kalman, the lady from Respawn whose name I forget, and Tina Amini?

WWE shirt is Jared Rea, shirtless is Greg Miller, ((H)) hat guy is the other one from Harmonix whose name I forget. Don't recognize either orange shirt.

Edit: Abby Heppe, that's her name.

I think the guy jumping off the top in the center might be Brad Muir with a chalice on his singlet.

Maybe he is correct in his belief that Android us shit, cause I sure believe Android is shit, and the more people who relay this information to others only helps the misinformed understand,
 
Cody Rhodes is a fairly avid gamer, as is Xavier Woods who Dan has met previously. Could be some kinda "Wrestlers are gamers, too" sort of thing.
 
Alex said on Bombin' that they might put together some extra Powerbomb Casts with guests over the weekend up in LA

I would could they grab a wrestler to participate, although it would probably be hard to air grievances about the product in front of an active wwe star.

Maybe Dan is filming little interviews to add in during the poddcast.
 
Steam has reached Newgrounds levels of quality with this Ex-Boyfriend the Space Tyrant game.

j/k Steam reached those lows a long time ago

Android stopped being shit three years ago, with Android 4.0 was released. It has only gotten better since, and from what I hear, it's just better than iOS.
