Giant Bomb GOTY 2014 - Destiny Has Brought Us Here

So the video is like a heavily edited version of the podcast content, right?
 
Wow, that Day 1 video is excellent.

Also getting through a lengthy Best Looking Game debate while not once mentioning Driveclub will surely piss some people off.
 
They didn't once mention Driveclub for best looking game.

I guess the weather patch wasn't out yet when they did the podcast?
 
Is there a "THESE GAMES GET SPOILED IN THIS PODCAST" list anywhere?

I don't think I care enough about the plot of any of the games they're talking about (or I've already finished the games that do matter), but I just want to be sure.

Valiant Hearts will get spoiled soon apparently
 
Still on the first category on the podcast. I'm disappointed
that with all this talk of Windjammers and Tetris Bate Gaiden, Puzzle Fighter is mentioned over a forgotten Sanrio World Smash Ball.

There were no plot-related spoilers from what I remember. Certainly not anything with a plot anyone would care about.

Sanrio is just a shitty Windjammers

Not only that but barely mentioning Second Son despite claiming it was incredible looking at release.

Anyway, the only spoilers in the first podcast is a moment in Sunset Overdrive.
 
Jeff loves MGS2..?

Is this real life?

You might have missed the times where he said how he loves it whenever MGS gets fucking weird and people get super confused from what they thought Metal Gear was all about. He also likes MGS4 for that reason. BUT WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT HE COULD LIKE VIDEOGAME-ASS VIDEOGAMES?!1111! People need to get real sometimes, Jeff is someone who has lived videogames and played enough of them that he has cemented his own tastes in them.

easy, there. it's only day one.
 
Patrick gets more annoying every time he says Deadly Premonition is a bad game.
It certainly is pretty clunky and bad looking. But it has good points like the voice acting and the memorable music.The game has heart, but some people can just put it on the "so bad its good" category which sells the game's story and characters short.

Yeah I came here to post that... I never expected the game to win considering Jeff's hate for it in general but holy shit it's the best looking game I've seen. Pretty sure the weather patch was out by then?

For the record I think the game is terrible (it's one of the most generic, shallow and borring racing game made in years) but it still deserves mention for its graphics.
 
No such category - otherwise it might have stood a chance.

I don't care what is the exact wording of the category.

The artistry that was involved in creation of the world of Alien Isolation is tremendous. The quality of the visuals, architecture and attention to details in all aspects of the game [visuals, lightning, special effects, layout of the station, atmosphere, design of alien and androids [so creepy!!!]] really elevate it above usual visuals were get these days.

I'm maybe more pissed because they spent 10+ minutes hyping up the Advanced Warfare, and never once even mentioned DriveClub which destroys anything on the market today.

I think it's just a matter of them not caring about the game, especially post patch.
