I can't breathe watching this ending to Mount Your Friends!
Brad, Vinny, and Dan's faces tell the story so well, hahahahaha

 

[EdReedFan20]

Ha I didn't even think of the Will Smith o face.

When is online multiplayer coming

If it's not there, you could always use SharePlay for online. Off topic, as for couch games, I wonder how Towerfall is going to work on Vita without Towerfall typically having online play.

Why did Dan throw the Mount Your Friends game then? For comedic value?

Knowing how much Dan likes to win, I doubt he'd ever throw something.

 

[Rapstah]

I think the reason Square-Enix have never remade it is they think they have to make it like FFXV and this AAA looking game when I personally would like it to look similar to something like Brothers in 1080p and full orchestration.

They absolutely think they need to make basically a new game with that story. They probably think Lightning needs to be in it too.

His attempt to contain himself afterwards strongly suggests you are correct.

A Final Fantasy VII remake with Lightning shoehorned in would be amazing.

She could talk for Cloud. Every time he goes "...whatever", she goes "destiny is destiny in the spirit that covers the God in all of man".

 

[Tamanon]

Yeah, I refuse to believe a man that cheeses Smash Brothers to the point of lying about the control scheme to get an advantage would throw that game.

 

[randomlyrossy]

I dunno, the way he fluffed it and his reaction looked to me like he did it on purpose. Guess we'll never know...

 

[TraBuch]

Am I imagining things or did GB once watch the techno viking video on one of their streams?

 

[Chuck]

Knowing how much Dan likes to win, I doubt he'd ever throw something.

He was trying to impress Vinny by putting him over. He knew it'd mean merch royalties he'd lose, but he's just that kind of guy.

As a professional Mount Your Friends eSportser I can vouch it's very easy to accidentally hit the wrong button in the heat of things.

 

[jgminto]

I think Dan threw the match. He sat on the edge without pressing a button for a good couple seconds.

 

[ratcliffja]

He might have tried to build tension or he was being overly cautious because that was the hard side. There's no way he threw the match.

 

[soundscream]

Because pressing a button makes you lose contact. He was sure one of his lower limbs would attach on the little platform he was on. Instead he slowly bounced off.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Dan isn't the type of person to do that, from everything we've seen until now.

 

[LurkerPrime]

I think Dan threw the match. He sat on the edge without pressing a button for a good couple seconds.

Rewatch it again and pay attention to his face. You'll soon notice that the twenty-seven stages of despair are present, and thus he is no faker.

Dan is the man.

 

[Xyrmellon]

I'm not hatin at all cause I get it, but its funny how Jeff said he was past getting all excited about the anniversary PS4 and on twitter he is trying to order one the second they go on sale. Caught you caring about videogames, Gerstmann!

 

[Seventy70]

I tried to watch Dan and Danny's thanksgiving banana and sprite video, but only could make it half way through.

Hoarders. Collectors.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

I really wish they had commented over the Sony thing.

Jeff just loves collecting video game stuff. Also, he said in the video that he needed another PS4 for his home office

Also, looking forward to watching UPF and listening to the Kansas podcast when I get home.

 

[Volotaire]

Will and Dave, nice surprises.

 

[LeBart]

I thought he was talking about Hoodslam for a minute there.

Dan is competitive, I think he just let the

I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

I was referring to the PC version specifically.

 

[Haunted]

Mount Your Friends can be pretty stressful.

 

[Volotaire]

Great UPF. Was fun to watch with most of the GB gang there.

 

[popo]

I wish I had a solid gold toilet, doesn't make it so.

 

[EdReedFan20]

I only have the original free version (not the Steam version). I have no clue if it does or not.

 

[BanGy.nz]

a @giantbomb fan sought me out last night in Melbourne to tell me to apply to GB. THEY HAVE AGENTS EVERYWHERE - Cara Ellison.

This is getting to such a weird point that there's going to be a shitstorm whether she is hired or not.

 

[popo]

Starting to look like self promotion now.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Starting to look like self promotion now.

Yeah, it's getting a bit weird.
Are other people also constantly talking about that? I almost seems a bit....pushy.
Not that I would complain if they actually would hire Cara, it just....feels weird.

 

[daydream]

Whatever, I'm all for it. #cara2015

The only one being 'pushy' is the fan for seeking her out, lol. Bit creepy there, buddy.

Edit: Melbourne? Ren pls.

 

[Rainmaker]

So what? Her and Giant Bomb are a perfect match. I couldn't think of anyone I'd rather see there more. Let her "self-promote" (I don't think that's what she's doing necessarily) if she thinks it'll help. I sure hope it does.

Not sure why he isn't simply keeping the one they got last week...

 

[Zomba13]

When I was watching UPF (just finished. Dat ending) It looked like Dan didn't throw the match but rather though one of the other limbs would have stuf by the time he unstuck the one holding him on but due to the way the body was it didn't make contact so he fell.

She may not be qualified for senior editor, but she can be senior shock game editor

Yep, Dan's reaction of slow, mounting (sorry) horror as he loses his grip, flails for a moment then falls is fantastic.

If he faked that then that's some Meryl Streep shit.

 

[TharpDaddy]

Dan's reactions are hilarious. His pogs loss, realizing he's Apollo, his maniac laughter when Drew messes up in MGS.

 

[Myggen]

Even in a very drunk state I can sense that Caragate is gonna be a thing... I don't know what yet, but... something.

Also, I met a fellow female duder because I wore the retro Bomb tshirt tonight. Good times!

So when's the first GB themed marriage? I've never met a fellow GB fan in person, no one knows what I'm talking about when I mention GB stuff

 

[FluxWaveZ]

They had an email about that 1-2 years back. A couple who met because of the Bombcast and then got married.

At least you get the chance to mention GB in some sort of context.

I do remember that now that you mention it.

True, but it's usually met with a silence and "what the hell is this guy talking about" look.

I introduced my college roommate to giantbomb (mostly through osmosis because I was watching so many of their videos) and now he listens to the podcast weekly. It's a good feeling :')

Maybe not a themed wedding, but there's been at least a few couples who've met thanks to GB, judging from previous emails.

I have one friend who is also into GB stuff, it's nice to have someone to share the injokes with.
