He wrestled some somewhat notable (relatively) indy shows a few years ago for CHIKARA teaming with D'Lo Brown and Al Snow of all people. From everything I remember he was a very nice guy!

Well it was difficult because hard mode was rebranded as normal for the original western release. AFAIK it was changed back to normal = normal for the special edition with Vergil and that might carry over to the HD release.

TNT tonight?
I didn't really mind playing hard mode first, Cerberus was pretty tough but I managed to beat him through perseverance and it prepared me enough to finish the game.
Still would like more Behind The Scenes with Vinny and Drew, and more flight club. I guess Truck and Farming Club could be included in that ;P

I hope they start an hour or two early so they can get through a decent amount.

Vinny must have a forgotten PC somewhere running with the site on, cause he's always online when I go there.
Or the tricaster has finally sucked Vinny in Tron-style, and now he must battle through wipes and dissolves to defeat the evil tricaster lady.
The Ni No Kuni quicklook just confirmed what I got from the demo. The game looks so damn good and everything surrounding it is pretty top notch, but because I can't stand the combat I'll probably never grab itSuch a cool concept too
And the Welsh accent is perfectly understandable
Listening to the Bombcast made me shake my head again at the Yanks understanding of British accents. Sometimes it appears they think we all speak like Cockneys from East London no matter where we live in England, Scotland or Wales! Hint - We don't;p
I thought the voice actor was great, but I'm also British and very use to hearing Welsh accents.
That said, when I first heard it, I was surprised they let him speak so fast. It adds to the charm, but I can completely understand some people struggling to understand him.
While he's inside the Tricaster, Vinny should also finally upload their Christmas 2012 Retro-Stream to the site: twitch.tv/giantbomb/b/349982135
We, the people, demand an archived version!

Bryan Davis will be the most prominent video gamesman of the 21st century.
What? No Whitta child?
And Dave said his is still in 'dev mode'. Looks like everyone is getting knocked up!
I knew I was forgetting one of them. And Whitta is the only one who spams kid pictures so I don't know how I forgot.
Edit: holy crap Dave too? Yeesh. Pregnancy is apparently contagious.
Wasn't that the stream that was specifically marked as We Won't Be Archiving this or something?

had uber flashbacks watching this. The RBI Baseball games, then the realization of seeing that Dragonball game, that I played the american version of that game as a kid. Can't remember what it was called here.

man, these fucking comments on that tit torso article
"i'm tired of this progressive bullshit" is the funniest thing since the Patrice Desilets thing yesterday
"i'm tired of this progressive bullshit" is the funniest thing since the Patrice Desilets thing yesterday
People are hostile in that comments section. How hard would it be for them to just not read that particular article if they know it will be so infuriating?
Edit: GiantBomb user "Kill" really went places with this:
Kill said:
Asking eight women in the industry what they think about a controversial marketing tactic = telling you to vote for Democrats and read Reddit.
They hate the sentiment behind the article thus don't want other people to experience it either. It boils down to a power struggle. They want to take Patrick's pedestal and use it to spread their own agenda/opinion.

Yeah the fact that people are mad at Patrick for daring to get a female perspective on the whole thing is pretty sad.
GiantBomb, more than any other online community, may be the most kneejerkedly defensive gaming community anytime an act of sexism is reported on. It's like they think the article and articles like it are pointing a finger squarely at them and saying, "YOU! YOU ARE SEXIST BECAUSE YOU LIKE VIDEOGAMES!"
Most of the responses seem as if the people commenting didn't even read the opening paragraph, forget about the whole thing.
And Jeff will still be the Editor-in-Chief. That would be hilarious and awesome.

What happened to Bradley May Cry? I saw that part 1 was uploaded right before I went to bed last night, but now its gone
Yeah, wanted to watch that today :/
There was some issue with the video put up, so Vinny pulled it down so he could fix it before reuploading it.
Please don't mistake "community" with "news section commenters". Those are rarely the same people, not on GB and not on other sites. Sure, there are posts by active community members but mostly it's people who solely signed up to rage on certain articles or QLs.

Hoping for an emotional ride.
The ANGER. It isn't "I think this overblown, whatever." It's all about the insidious agenda that's taking hold of the country through video game editorials. It kind of upsets me that I'm passionate about the same thing they are.
Giant Bomb, not video games, those are usually pretty bad.
I never understand what the fuck these people are doing/not doing in their daily life. I would never be able to summon the energy to reply to a news article on ANY site. Ever.

In 20 years the average Bombcast will feature Vinny's kid, Patrick's kid, Brad's Kid, Ryan's kid, and Jeff's clone that was frozen and only thawed out to run the future Giant Bomb.

Yes, I was going to make a barbed comment about the community but the community is US, it's the people who subscribe and can quote half of the Endurance Run and turn up at PAX and tweet Ryan pictures of themselves wearing t-shirt with dumb jokes on them.
Comment section assholes? Scumbags looking for a soapbox with which to eschew ignorance. Fuck 'em.
I guess it's the same people that watch QL's and then complain that Brad did not read the on screen text in a very elaborate post. Here.
Jeff, Ryan, Brad and Vinny are republicans in his fanfics
I would have been more eager to agree with you if there wasn't another thread yesterday which was even more insane about people losing their minds over the TITLE of the article.
I know there's a lot of integrity within the GB community, but this stuff and it's frequency over the past couple weeks has been nothing less than crazy.
::Sigh:: Yeah.
Maybe I'm just annoyed by all this. I've seen some very respectable members of the community leave over mess like this.
I'll tell you this much, if I still had time to be a mod on forums (I used to be a mod over at gametrailers before the buyout), I'd be nipping that stuff in the bud a lot more often.
Or I'd try to.
I dunno.
Nah, it'll be like Poyunch said, Jeff will be there like Egon in that Extreme Ghostbusters cartoon
It's amusing just how gung ho some folks get when it comes time to defend accusations of sexism in video games, or in this case, video game marketing. So many leading questions and "but Patrick what do you think about THIS LINK HUH?"
I wouldn't lay it all on the feet of the GB community, as predictable as some of those comment threads get. It's a topic that's worth a little tact out there on the internet, especially as an adult male that's been relatively desensitized to violence in media over my lifetime. Sometimes it's okay to shut up and listen, moreso when I'm not just reading a reflection of my own personal reaction.
Edit: Just noticed some internet sleuthing for racy pics of the women that offered opinions as evidence of hypocrisy. Done with the thread, starting to agree with you more.

I couldn't summon the energy to actively get annoyed by these people.
so it was not some type of amazing fever dream? It did happen?

This is where I'm at. I laugh at them. It's all you can do. They're idiots, human spectacle of ridiculousness.
