BLOCKED
Ryan defending dickiness as usual. Being such a big dick himself this is not surprising.

The Ryan hate is strong in here.
Now there is a reason to hate Ryan, where the fuck is TANG?
I thought he ran out of movies?

They said like a year ago or something that several new episodes of TANG are already in the can.
I remember they said they were going to work on new WUTANG episodes... That was a long while ago.

They where filming new TANG last year and it never got finished/released. Dat Whiskey Media work ethic.
Also I dont mind Ryan but pretty much everything he does would be better if another staff member did it.
Reviews? Brad and Jeff are better
Hosting Podcast and Live shows? Jeff is better.
Video interviews. Jeff, Patrick, Brad and Drew are better. (After that Nolan North shit fest I NEVER want Patrick interviewing anything on camera ever again)
Ryan is pretty good when he starts laughing though. Him ROLF'ing when he first heard Find me the Bomb is one of my fav GB moments.

If you want to ruin it for yourself, watch this first: http://lparchive.org/Deadly-Premonition/
Then watch the V/J run. It'll be less hair-pullingly maddening than the B/R run.

Tekken live action would be great, not to mention the live action MK tv show.

QFT. Was real excited for that interview, but Patrick just shat all over it. Urgh, it's probably my least favourite video off the whole site.

It's the Internet, overreactions galore.

Even when Ryan's taking bizarre and unpopular stances on things, I still find him entertaining.
I don't hate him. In fact, I find him pretty funny most of the time, especially when he pairs up with Jeff and I think he is good at his job. But he's a dick, and it shows throughout most of the stuff he says. It's like, you could be best friends with a guy and still find him a dick.

I don't hate Ryan, but sometimes he is very unlikeable and the weak link of the crew.

I still like Ryan despite his stance on that issue. Patrick still needs to be fired -- you can't emulate Luke Smith. It doesn't work.

Uh, I don't see the emulating Luke Smith thing.
Because everyone loves Vinny and Brad.
Internet outrage, yo.
Him jokingly calling nolan north an asshole at the end though, as if they were buddies, was really cringe-worthy. Nolan North was a champ throughout though.

But brad sux at video games.
We've already covered this. Brad is actually the best gamer of the crew. And even if he wasn't, he's still a great a dude.

Haha classic Ryan
Don't forget Jeff, dude is the face of giantbomb for me.

My favourite content on GB has always been the stuff with Vinny/Jeff/Dave/Drew.
Welcome to the Giant Bomb thread, where everyone hates everyone.
Except Vinny, everyone loves Vinny.

I really like Patrick.
I like Ryan sometimes.
I fucking hate Kessler.
OMG HATE EVERYTHING OMG.
Ryan acted like a twat and he does it a lot. We just commented on how some of us think he's the weak link.

I definitely enjoy Jeff for his humor. Guy has impeccable comedic timing and he really is the key ingredient that makes the Giant Bomb crew work so well together. That said. His opinions on entertainment media really don't gel with mine. Similarly to Ryan, I find Jeff to be exceptionally close minded at times. Sometimes even to the point of annoyance.
I just need Jeff to keep making more dumb office videos. That's where Jeff really shines.
The variety between the different personalities is what makes the site for me.
Some people's opinions occasionally don't align with mine, but I appreciate them for the balance they bring to the group as a whole.
5 Vinny's wouldn't make for interesting content.

Ofcourse, people will claim otherwise

Two Vinnys, Two Daves, and Two Drews. It's a sitcom I want to see happen.

OK, so, nightmare scenario: if Vinny and Ryan were fused into some monstrous thing, how would you feel about it?
I agree with your points but even though Jeff can be close-minded, I feel that when he talks about a game he dislikes and has spent a lot of time with he makes some real interesting points at times and is good with conveying his thoughts and most of the time I can see where he is coming from. Unless it's something he was uninterested with to start with in which case he doesn't always give it a fair chance. It's especially awesome to hear his thoughts on a game he really enjoys, same with brad and vinny. They more than anyone can convinve me to buy/try a game when they discuss it on the bombcast. Recent example would be Asura's wrath, reading about it here on gaf and the impressions from the demo, etc. completely turned me off on the game, but brad has convinced me to at least rent it.
still would
Yep, often I enjoy Ryan but he does say some things which are incredibly pig headed and in turn makes him look like a bit of a twat.
Yep, the PC throwbacks are always hilarious. Since we're bad mouthing everyone, I don't understand the dislike of Patrick at all! :>
Hardly a secret
Also, All ya'll can go fuck yourselves with the Patrick hate. Dude's great, he and Vinny always seem to have the most rational opinions on things unlike Jeff, Brad and Ryan who are all close minded as fuck.
That being said I still like Brad and Jeff, despite Brad's inability to vidya game.
