valid point, definitely can't argue with that.
those full crew Bombcasts were so great.... damn them and their chemistry. Why can't they move everybody to one office permanently?
(and Kansas is definitely not the south)

Highly disagree. Jeff casts weren't that long ago, surely we didn't forget that they were much more dry, much more low energy and not even edited at all. Jeff can still be fun while not hosting, I'd even say he's become much more lively now that he doesn't have to host. Emails have always been kinda bad with some great ones here and there. I blame that more on the fanbase being a bunch of creepy weirdos!

You forgot the "How badly can Dan fuck up an alcoholic beverage" game.
So is the stealth in TLOU not very good, or was there just something I was missing out on? I tried to play on Survivor my first time through, but I got stuck in the sewer section for practically an hour trying to sneak through a section and switched to easy. It just seemed like so much random crap would go wrong. Runners would turn around out of nowhere when I was sneaking behind them, clickers seemed to jump between being completely oblivious and being able to spot me if I was anywhere near them. I know you're supposed to creep even more slowly around the clickers, but even that didn't work sometimes.
I thought it was funny how the human enemies were 100x easier to sneak up on than the infected that are supposed to be fucking blind. On the higher difficulty stuff was so scarce that you practically needed to sneak through most sections. I have no idea how I would have gotten through some of the sections later on in the game if I kept it on Survivor.

Well clickers track you via sound, so be careful how fast you walk or what you're walking on, like broken glass. And bricks and bottles make for a good way to corral enemies into a area were you can stealth kill them. I personally thought the stealth was fine and tried to use it every chance I got because it worked so well.
Same here, didn't have any issues with it.

Has there been any word if we'll get a retro stream before Christmas? I always look forward to those.

Just finished MGS3 and forgot how goddamned good it was. Moment-to-moment it's the best Metal Gear game out there, but MGS2 will always be the most memorable to me.
Drew's gonna have a ball with 3. It'll probably end up being his favorite.

They said they'll try to do a stream on Tuesday but didn't specify more.
Yeah, MGS3 seems like a game Drew would like a lot. Especially the setting.
Nice.

It's tough to get used to at the start. I felt like shelving it but stuck with it and ended up loving it.

Not to mention there's nothing wrong with the controls. It is a methodical game after all.

What was the first video game that allowed you to press against a wall to sneak? It may sound silly but I remember that was such a big reason why the original MGS wowed me right away.
Sure, the controls do the job well once you're familiar with them but 4's control scheme is still better in every way without sacrificing any of the function.
octocamo da goat
octocamo and sneaking through two sides that are occupied with potshotting one another is sooooo gooooood. A heavily defended facility with regular patrols is one thing, but sneaking through a chaotic area through disguises and camo and other stuff is way cool

I love some of the mind-boggling stuff that Dan says (like about coals and diamonds) that sometimes makes me wonder if he was raised by wolves.

I wonder if we will get an Elite: Dangerous quick look from giantbomb dot com

Drew will need time to make his notes first.
He really is IRL homer simpson
I get the feeling he just discovered curiosity very late in life
I wonder what the endgame is for Youtube accounts like this one. The user has uploaded at least three full QLs in the last few days, and a ton of trailers and other random crap.

Inform the crew
Let the CBSi Hitmen deal with it.
That is what i would do.
And yes i would have let CBSi deal with Gamebomb dot ru as well.
I guess they hope to get enough views from people searching for trailers/games and then get ads put in front of them to make some money without requiring any talent/personality.
Yeah, that makes sense.

All I got from the first 10 minutes of the SoM DLC QL is that B & D really like their games to be super easy.
Also goddamn the "stealth" in SoM looks ridiculous.

The mounted stealth looks 10x more ridiculous than the already generous stealth mechanics from the vanilla game.
Ive gotten that impression from just about everyone on staff. i think some of them played TLOU on easy just so they could blow through and see the story.
They ditched the Worst Trend category this GOTY, going by what Brad says in the SoM QL. Probably replaced it with something quite similar though.
Differs by what games they are playing. Brad played TLoU on hard, to give one example.
