Giant Bomb Thread #4: A thread of perceived slights

Shifting gears, has anyone rewatched "End of the Matrix" or "Set your phasers to fun" to see if they still hold up? All I remember from the Matrix videos is the first episode character creation and the ending with the guy in the pink robe (can't spell his name). I don't remember anything about the Star Trek ones.
 
The Wednesday Show has gotten better I reckon, though it feels weird that the GB guys are almost always there to represent since there's only 6 of them and GS has like 30 guys that they rotate in and out. Maxwell was great and as entertaining as any of the GB imo.

End of the Matrix is great. I mean the last episode. Just a huge party. And Ryan constantly getting ganked by a whole guild. Also...

I usually rewatch set phasers to fun from time to time because they talk more about the tv show than the game itself. They are not particularly funny but I find them entertaining from the Trek fanboy perspective.

I'd say that only watch it if you like the show.

edit: The ''Zulu knows karate'' debacle was pretty funny though.
 
On topic of the Wednesday show, the big reason I don't want to watch it is that it feels 100% like a CBSi company mandated thing. The GB crew clearly aren't enjoying it like they are with their other live stuff.
 
OMG that arma 3 QL was HILARIOUS ! :D

hahahahhaha fan fucking tastic!!!! LOL hard and was one of there best content in a while !

this is why I love GB, learned some things about Arma and was entertaining :D

Ever since I randomly lucked into the beta for Warcraft III before my time in the games press, I've deeply admired Blizzard's take-no-prisoners approach to RTS balance, and Heart of the Swarm shows they still aren't afraid to make cuts and deep changes wherever appropriate.

He seems to have confused randomly pounding on the keyboard having no clue what to do with the balance with bravery.
 
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty was such a throwback to its seminal but aged RTS predecessor, it's fitting StarCraft is one of the few franchises still being extended out in the spirit of the old '90s boxed PC expansion pack.

I still don't think Brad's opening is very good.

Did he even change the first three paragraphs at all?

2clauses1splice opener is my favorite pro strat
 
Arma 3 Alpha Quick Look is fantastic. It'd be awesome if they played it for TNT with more of the guys in a game, sort of like their Diablo III TNT setup.

Drew and Vinny were awesome but Patrick and Ryan were terrible. If they're gonna stand there and stay useless crap for an hour, just don't bother and stay away....ugh
 
In an ideal world I'd love to watch a Sim City TNT with all of them the same region building cites.

Like I said, Ideal. :PP

Patrick and Ryan kind of annoy me as a duo sometimes, but I didn't find them that bad in this QL. Keeps the laughter infectious with more people, at the very least. :P

That'd be awesome. Dead Island-style griefing but with cities.

On a side note, I think they legitimately missed an opportunity for a cool bit of content with Vinny and Ryan being trained for HoTS over a short period and then facing off against each other. When that guy (forget his name) brought up the idea on the stream it reminded me of the intern farmville face off.
Then I shed a tear for the Whiskey days.

Well, that is what you get when you write the review during TNT.
