This could be the greatest breaking Brad yet
Brad was just being weird in that quicklook. He would agree with Jeff with all his criticisms and would bring up his own criticisms. But would follow up with, "at least they're trying" or "it's better, but the bar was so low." I feel like he might've defended it hard for it to not win Most Disappointing Game.
Destiny is a huge disappointment for me, but I still play because it's my "podcast game" at the moment. I don't really need to pay attention or concentrate on the actual game because I've run through this content so many times.

I think any FPS is boring to watch. Destiny may be doubly so depending on how you feel about the game.
Isn't that how Brad has been when it comes to Destiny since day 1 though? Agreeing that the game is heavily flawed, but really liking the game despite of all the flaws? Doesn't really sound like a weird reaction to me, he just likes the game.
Anyways, The Crew QL coming up tomorrow.
That was the first thing I thought of when seeing that. This thread has ruined me.

So I'm just watching Jeff shoot streams of bullets into a bullet sponge, I mean the WILL OF CROTA.
Destiny sure still seems like a piece of shit.

It's pretty much Bullet Sponge: The Game. Every single boss has their own attacks and patterns. Once you go through it once, you just go through the motions of "stand here, shoot in head, throw grenade, move behind cover, repeat."
I just read an essay presumably written by a grown man on how he'd love to go to PAX and punch Dan in the face.
Like, tumblrs hate of Dan (or at least the circle of blogs that appear on my dash) is directly equivalent to going on /v/ and reading Patrick hate threads. Dan used the word pussy as an insult I'm unsubscribing! Or Dan doesn't understand mortgages Jeff needs to fire him! Or the new favorite Dan doesn't understand the dangers of California weather I hope he gets hurt in an earthquake!
What's the word for taking pleasure in other's displeasure? Schadenfreude? That's what I'm feeling.

Including working multiplayer, according to Jeff on Mixlr just now.
I kind of think Ubisoft doesn't deserve any coverage for the game at all, even if it's negative.

I stand by my statement.I was in my teens in the late 90s, there's only one SMG.
You lied.

FPS can be very enjoyable to watch, otherwise there wouldn't be pro communities and events around them.
I wish that Jeff and Brad had been like, watching someone else who was focused on the game. At least then they could have talked. It seemed like Jeff was putting all his attention into playing and Brad was trying his hardest to make Destiny seem like a good game. I don't think he was feigning excitement exactly, but it was something along those lines.

The Crew looks mediocre through and through. The idea of an open world car RPGy thing is interesting enough, but Ubisoft definitely didn't pull it off well.
Edit: It would only cost $250 for Dan to be willing to lick 3 yards of snail goo.

He's been talking about doing that for a while.

I enjoyed the poop section of The Crew quick look.

The intro to such a 'cast has to be bread saying "Heeee maillllss!" in the flour-y way only he can.
Ah, there's still the 23rd, of course. My mental calendar has been out of whack today.

Ah, the all-email cast a few years back (with Jeff Green!) contained one of my favorite email responses in the history of the Bombcast:

I can't wait for them to get that far, a whole episode could be devoted to watching Snake smoke.
This is literally what I picture when I imagine somebody who would defend that David Jaffe concept. Not somebody who thought it looked good, but somebody who would go out of their way to get angry about somebody not liking it. Way too much anger, hashtags, and name-calling on the level of "M$"
The video organization has always been awful and who knows if it'll ever improve since they've left it like this for how many years.
Forgot about that one, haha.
It also led me to one of my favs (I have a faible for really short clips) - Ryan talking about Usher's Easter Message. For newcomers: Listen to the clip first, then watch the Usher video which is linked in the video description.
I died when I looked that up the first time and I still get a audible laugh out of it every time I relisten.
Giant Bomb Plus is a Chrome extension that takes care of that. I don't use Chrome but that script is supposed to bring up the next video in a series, supposedly.

Gaming side is becoming so sad to browse nowadays, so much console warzzz.
I never want to post there, because it seems so hostile to differing opinions.

I've gotten to the point where i just ignore gaming and off topic and just look at my subscribed threads, that seems to work.
Well I mean in general, but I dont think Criterion copyrighted crashing into crap and having good multiplayer or not having your world be empty fields

it looks like the powerbombcast was recorded like two days ago, where is it

Here's to hoping microsoft and sony drop the prices on their consoles some more, so people can afford to buy both and not have to vehemently justify their purchase anymore.

Alex is usually the one who edits and uploads it and he has just traveled back home to new york for the first time since before thanksgiving so that's probably the delay.

People caping up over DriveClub and Drawn to Death is the gutter dredge slinging of this generation's console warz. The low point of an already sad existence. Not the flags to be proudly waved.

Mix console warriors with a niche fanbase that feels they are under attack and these are the wonderful results. Throw in some "questions" about journalism ethics (because that's the only way a game you like could score low) and you are set.
