Where's my content

Is there a post anywhere collecting GIFs from the GOTY videos? I didn't keep up with that thread because I wanted to listen to all the podcasts first.

Where's my content

Destiny content will resume in march

 

[Shiny Llama]

Obviously they need fighting character names and appearances.

As said earlier, Dan is Dirty Dan Ryckert, Danny is ELDOR.

Not that I've seen, no. But here's the best Brad gif from an earlier video:

Good (late) morning, everyone. Can we just start the weekend now?

The weekend is already here!

Wonder when is Patrick's embargo going up.

 

[DanLongman]

Haven't been to this thread in a while what's everyone's guess where Patrick is going? I'm thinking polygon...

He confirmed twice that he's not headed to polygon. My guess is Gamasutra!

 

[Jimmyfenix]

probs going to start his own site with a hat that says press on it

Good people there

Me? I like that brad chose dota2 as his goty.

if i could again this year here on gaf i would

Why do so many VG writers self embargo? It seems they do it more than just about any other profession - excepting maybe sports stars. Always seems to be "I can't say where I am going yet". I doubt the companies care and once the new contracts are signed it does seem a little coy.

The Dan and Jason thing was played for laughs - but even then I think they realise they took it a bit far with all the trolling.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

the dota indoctrination is real

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Watching the video of them signing the posters last year and they mention the last time they did it some of them had penises on them. Made me think of what Dan would do if they tried that again.

Well, it's impossible to know what's behind Patrick's self embargo on this. From Tumblr:

Not an embargo. Just a matter of respect for various reasons.

It’s pretty boring, honestly.

It's not really an embargo. It's just a question of syncing annoucements between all parties involved. This happens in every professions, not just gaming press.

Often (and I doubt that's the case here), they do that to avoid somebody announcing his/her new position before the previous person doing that job learning he/she doesn't have a job anymore.

Brad makes GOTY so much more enjoyable. He always delivers entertainment and I genuinely thank him for that.

 

[AuthenticM]

Any idea when Metal Gear Scanlon 3 will happen ? I will predict: around mid-to-late January. Maybe on the 20th, which is a Tuesday.

This makes me happy

I always thought Nick Carter would be bigger than Justin Timberlake when they went solo. How wrong I was.

I dunno, just seems worse. I remember when Jeff Green was all hush hush for like 6 months on his new gig and it turned out to be a consultancy that nobody gave two shits about. That is if some big mouth doesn't leak it on twitter anyway. My experiences are more like when Alexis left and said he was going to Twitch a few days after.

Well... Patrick announced that he left and then said he was going to ??? a frew days after lol

 

[TraBuch]

He's moving to SF and going to work at Gamespot.

And that seems to be what happens most of the time, even in the video game press.

Edit: doh too late

 

[Volotaire]

Kotaku, WOAH. Is it worth a thread?

 

[firehawk12]

Yep, makes sense he's reuniting with Totilo.

Wasn't Shrier their news guy though? Or did he do something else?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I could use a haircut, and I'll probably get one on Saturday.

things keep changing and it hurts

Him and Tina got promotions i think.

Got promoted to Scoopzilla.

 

[MadLaughter]

Sweet! Congrats to Patrick! Would have been my top guess if it weren't for the Schrier thing.

 

[tchocky]

Jason got promoted to senior news editor last week.

 

[TraBuch]

Ugh. Well, hope he's successful there.

He was promoted to head news guy (whatever the actual title is) earlier this week which is why I called it earlier. I guess Patrick is taking Jason's old job.

Ah, fair enough.
