Somebody needs to turn this into an "Abandon Thread" gif. Immediately.
 
I would pay premium AND an additional fee to watch a Giantbomb stream of VGCW with Jeff + 1 as an announcer.

VGCW would lose a lot of its ghetto charm if they added commentary.

Sort of like when ECW started using two commentators instead of just Joey Styles.

Guy who runs it said he'd love to have proper commentary, but he'd only settle for some proper shit, no amateur hour stuff. So it's never getting commentary, really
 
I knew Jeff would love VGCW.


The only problem I have with Brad in that HotS match was his unwillingness to engage and defeat the opponent. Like, he really had to get pushed by Ryan and Vinny to even attack, he talked several times about quitting out of the game just because and I don't know why? Like I don't understand the mentality of loving this game but seemingly not wanting to play? Walking his armies into the same widow mines and not scouting or not keeping up with his economy can be attributed to playing and talking at the same time and being distracted so that's all ok.

edit: ah, his competitive spirit finally awakens! That's much more like it. :D
 
With the recent Sim City debacle, I went ahead and put in my cartridge of Sim City for SNES. I hope they go and do a Quicklook Throwback of it, but I doubt they will. I still wish they did more Quicklook Throwbacks, not just Encyclopedia Bombastica, because the interaction between participants is so much better than the vlog style of the EB videos. It's kind of like XCOM; I wish they did a QL Throwback of one of the originals the week it came out.

They played it on the most recent classic stream I think.
 
So is the first guy brad played supposed to GG as early as brad said he should?

I find it really weird how he kept on pressuring him to.
 

I'm a little mad that you thought posting this was a good idea. Or, at the very least, disappointed. By all means, you can drive cool people away all you want. That'll make GAF a real fun place for everyone.

is there a shrimp shrak show today or did they cancel it? its not showing up in the coming soon anymore

Did the New Releases Show not actually happen? I was coming in to this thread to ask if it was any better than last week's. Maybe somebody goofed with the scheduler?

Yes his opponent was quite bad and should have left earlier, but Brad did a poor job of finishing him especially with the widow mines
 
Did they scrap the wed live show? It's not longer listed.

Wouldn't surprise me since everyone was all butthurt here about GS people being on GB.

The first guy brad played lost the game like 30 minutes before it ended. They both are just.. Um.. How do i put it without sounding like an asshole? They aren't "super experienced" players, not to say that brad is bad at the game, he has been away from the game for some time but if the terran guy was playing against someone who has been playing the game for awhile he would of GG'd at least half way through that game if that makes sense.

But both were being dicks. Bad Sportsmanship, BM (Bad Manners) or however you want to put it.

Maybe it's only listed on GS now! Ziiinngggg.
 
I watched some of the Gamespot HoTS stream. It was pretty good! I'm not familiar with Eric Tay but he did a good job carrying the show largely on his own and he's a pretty good SC player.

I wonder what they want with Vinny. Maybe the next DLC is the Italian Stallion pack.

They should release a DLC pack where Wei Shen's long lost Italian stallion brother from the States comes over and you get to play with him co-op style. I cannot imagine how good that would be with Vinny if they could somehow make it work.
 
Vinny being involved with Sleeping Dogs content would be a great way to kill Giant Bomb's coverage of it. Especially if it's a whole game.

Don't Chobot Vinny!
 
oh man, the lil reference to DmC's dialogue during the GoW talk was so subtle yet brilliant. Too good guys, too good.

I think they could still QL it, but it would remove it from being able to be reviewed, and they'd probably have to mention any collaboration during any coverage of it.
 
Since Vinny is now deeply involved with Sleeping Dogs 2, who will he play?

I'd like for every Hot Dog Cart vendor to be a Vinny, that or the main villain
