Hmmm seems to have cut off? seems to start with cliffy b sitting there...

For the YT VOD's longer than 4 hours, all over YT right now for long streams such as YT gaming, IGN, GS, etc, it seems to be taking time (about a day or more) for the VOD's to update so you can watch it all instead of the VOD's cutting everything apart form the last 4 hours. I don't know why.
 
Watched last night's show.

Phil's segment was good, he's a likeable guy and he had a sincere approach that I thought was cool.

Double Fine segment was also good.
 
2 of the 3 confirmed.

Gotta love the relationship GB has gotten with some of the actual CEO's of the biggest companies in gaming. Spencer joking with Jeff about his Quantum Break interview yesterday was great.

uh what was the thing he got in his mouth? a nat?

Gnat, it's a small bloodsucking insect like a mosquito. That story was amazing/incredible disgusting. How the hell he wasn't able to just flush it out with water though, I have no idea.
 
Catching up on the last two segments of yesterday`s stream that I missed because of sleep, so far this is probably my favourite batch of guest segments GB has done at E3. Great job to everyone involved.

Yeah I agree, and I don't even own an Xbone and still don't plan on buying one. Even though he does have a bunch of the normal executive speak he seems more genuine and real then like anyone else.

Quite a statement from Dan given what a lot of last year's show was devoted to. Shenmue 3, Dreams, FF7 remake, AssCreed and Destiny DLC, etc. If he wasn't such a level headed guy you might wonder if he even remembered what was shown a year ago.

And 2014 was so bereft of big games they spent a silly amount of time pimping Powers.
 
In totally unrelated news, just started downloading that Kingdom Hearts mobile game (only played the first game for a few hours, and a bit of II) and I had never realized that Dearly Beloved was such an incredible song.

The fact that you can't get over their opinions on the Sony conference is hilarious and a little sad.

Plus Hitman was revealed (which he ended up loving), Horizon was revealed, Uncharted 4 got a gameplay trailer, TLG and Shenmue 3 were huge suprises, etc.

Don't downplay last year, there was some great stuff.
 
Surprise surprise the Giant Bomb crew being dour contrarians? Sony could have announced the PS4 Neo was a 10 TF system and gave out one to everyone at E3 with UC4 Neo edition and Horizon early release and they'd still piss and moan about how there weren't enough presenters during the conference.

How does the world work in a fanboys head.
 
Phil Spencer continues to be a swell guy. He even managed to win me over with the MAU vs unit sales argument. I understand they're shifting to an ecosystem vs ecosystem mentality which makes sense for them.

We're still not over this, huh?

Gnats, at least in my neck of the woods, aren't bloodsucking. That would be awful.
 
The night shows are great and all but it sucks when they have someone like Cliff Bleszinski on and they talk about YouTube and jokingly shill there stuff for the whole segment. I would have loved to hear more about Lawbreakers and anything Cliff B had to say.

Bad pairing of guests I suppose. Would of liked a more Phil Spencer type segment with Cliff B and some of the other big guests they get.

Just calling it as I see them. Every time I try to get into these guys it seems like nothing ever gets through the wall of cynicism and the bad vibe that seems to hang over them as a whole. Individually they aren't so bad but man. I'd say this about a lot of their reactions and not just to Sony. I'm fine with being skeptical and having super high standards but after a while it comes off as almost a gimmick.

I'd be surprised if any lineup would have made Cliff talk more about the game. he even said he'd rather talk about personal stuff than give sales pitches.

Phil Spencer seems like a cool dude. I'd love to see him paired up with a drunken Lang and JV on the couch.
And then JV tweets out Phil's phone number.

he's absurdly good at his job. great at talking, good at putting info out in a non-condescending way, doesn't come off as egotistical (either as a person or a brand), he's just a good guest in general. He and Jeff bounce off each other really well.
 
So this is not a call to arms or me handing out pitchforks or anything, but looks like Polygon's got video of them watching/chatting about old press conferences...?

https://www.facebook.com/polygon/videos/vb.340327135979921/1208637289148897/?type=2&theater

I can't watch the video since I'm at work, though. But I know Justin is generally very against trying to do what others do, he's dropped a couple segments on his podcast because others started doing the same thing (haunted doll watch for example). He also seemed miffed when another games site started doing a feature that was basically Monster Factory.

Also just kind of funny in the context of Jeff making a joke about others copying Griffins Amiibo Corner last night.

Yeah it's a broad term, but some species are, I believe the ones in California typically do.

And yes, it's fucking shitty insect, though not as shitty as mitter (don't know their english name), which are smaller and not as powerful, so they actively target your eyes, ears and the other parts of your body where the your is the thinnest..

Maybe they just didn't like the Sony conference because it wasn't very good? I know that's a crazy thought.
