Dave done good, congrats.
 
God, I wish Euro Truck would release something to make GB go back to it. The QL for that is my absolute favorite, I've decided. And I will use Euro Goodies for a future username somewhere.
 
Since it is the weekend, i have creepy question:

Does Brad has a driver's license, or does he know how to drive? I was listening to an old bombcast from '09 and Jeff mentioned that Brad doesn't have a car. I know Brad takes public transit a lot, and being in a busy and small city, that makes sense, but I wonder if he still doesn't own a car. And, if he doesn't own a car, I wonder if he ever got his license.
 
Wow just watched the Dark Souls quicklook again and I am realizing Matt played very well considering he spent a large amount of time playing in areas he had never been and was explaining his play very well to Brad and the audience. Makes me sad that he isn't apart of the crew =(. Come on CBSi give GB the budget to bring on another staffer!

He's from NC so he probably knows how to drive and has a license.

Does he drive in California? No idea.
 
What was the deal with Jeff's IGN joke in the Part 2 last segment? Seemed like an awkward moment. Is IGN going out of business or something?

Nah its just a joke because I guess they have had a few rounds of layoffs recently.


IGN will always be around but the way they are trimming staff eventually it will just be Chobot and that blonde lady and a webcam making youtube videos.

Am I allowed to dream of a day where Greg Miller and/or Brian Altano become staff of Giant Bomb? The only reason I still go to IGN and put up with their nonsense is a few of my favorite personalities.

Sure, as long as I'm allowed to dream about Jeff being a guest on an episode of Retronauts.
 
Paul Barnett can sure spin a yarn. Hanging on every word here.

He sure loves the sound of his own voice. I would find it grating it wasn't for the fact that he understands the structure for telling a story well enough. The problem is level of interesting information within the content is inverse to the length of time he devotes to saying it. Patch music isn't really information that should sustain a 10 minute monologue in a group of five other people, four of which actually create music for a living.

He is the master shill and a lord of bullshit. Likeable guy though.

I used to find him entertaining, now I find him rather boring and full of self-importance. It would help if he actually helped ship a decent and successful game. Warhammer Online was a major disappointment, and the freebie "moba" WAR spin off a disaster which was recently cancelled.
 
Wii U has murdered Jeff's TV (via twitter)

This is what I get for trying to play the Wii U, which overscans so much that I had to try to get into service mode...which then had me trying to figure out how to update the firmware, which led to the screen dropping on a pair of headphones, and... yeah.
