How about a Daily Dota coached by Vinny

You have my permission.

I still remember Vinny's StarCraft 2 casting. Good stuff.

When did that happen?

I'd use GB's search tool.. but it straight-up doesn't search for things correctly.
(e.g. Searching Killzone 2 quick look in videos yields three results in the drop-down bar, but when you actually search it you get EVERYTHING EVER, instead. Bad example - that actually works.)

Was there ever a Daily Dota that tried to explain the game for newcomers?

I've always been vaguely interested in trying the game, but have played nary a moba in my time.

Play with bots for fifty hours to learn all the heroes, basic mechanics, items, and novice strategies. Then, enter multiplayer and get crushed for three to five hundred hours to become an initiate DotAer. Spend over five hundred or more in the real money shop to reach Brad's level - sustainer. At this point you won't be able to stop, so you'd best enjoy it.

DotA2: Defense of the Ancients; or, Remember: you're here forever.

There was another one with Jeff and Vinny commentating which was either a Happy Hour or BLLSL I think.

Did GB stop doing an ad free podcast for members, or is it just my podcast app not downloading them anymore?

I noticed it stopped around the holidays and I assumed it was just because they were on vacation or something but it hasn't popped up since then.

I'm pretty sure they changed the feed for the premium podcast. But that was a long time ago.

New feed. They separated the Bombcast premium podcasts from the other premium podcasts.

edit: Hope the Powerbombcast goes up on the site before the Royal Rumble. Alex now being in Texas makes me doubt it.

VGA is back, baby! Who needs Spike?

Spoiler

starting in 20 minutes

 

[ratcliffja]

Brad's streaming on twitch. Looks like the GB stream will begin soon.

 

[Martal]

This might be the right place to ask:

whats the song playing in the opening?

One of Jeff's works?

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Gat Out Of Hell? Ugh, I'd rather have Meme Run.

Okay, maybe not.

[Xater]

Wait Brad is not playing DOTA? I'm actually disappointed.

 

[Myggen]

Dave, the stream's down.

 

[DrFunk]

Dave, site's broken

edit: surprise Vinny

 

[The Boohbah Zone]

braaaaaad

EDIT: OMG VINNY

 

[SlowRevolution]

VINNY

 

[daydream]

vinny's face is melting off

 

[Myggen]

Dat quality

 

[Falifax]

You're cruising with the Vindog, bitch!

 

[Resident4t.]

Low bitrate Vinny!

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Okay, Gat Out Of Hell but with Vinny is a different proposition entirely.

(I recently rewatched all of the Sleeping Dogs & DLC videos. So good.)

 

[Myggen]

Skype is working about as well as I imagined it would.

 

[Xater]

Oh playing with Vinny. I'm back on board again.

Skype is a piece of shit.

 

[alr1ght]

Brad has lots of 360 games.

 

[Shiny Llama]

I hope we get something approaching an impromptu Breaking Brad with Vinny as an all-knowing guide.

 

[Data West]

Brad has lots of 360 games.

Follow the money.

Haven’t even been out of town for six hours and already @bradshoemaker has ICP in the top slot. What a fucking juggalo.

.

wow, Vinny really has a shitty camera

and is he at home?

At the studio. And it isn't his camera, it's connection problems with Skype that only allows audio and low quality image for some reason.

Right, low bitrate Vinny is scary.

 

[alr1ght]

Take down the firewall Vinny.

 

[daydream]

Time to try something else~

 

[Jimmyfenix]

NAT fucking sucks

 

[strafer]

Is Skype the only option to use?

 

[giant_frying_pan]

NAT Out Of Hell.

Excellent, thanks a lot!

 

[strafer]

this game looks really boring

 

[Kelas]

Did they really take out the entire custom character feature? That was like 50% of the draw for sr4 for me.

Edit also reading "san antone" reminded me of this classic song

 

[Wunder]

vinny looks sad

 

[Data West]

I like how Dan talked about how the game's not that long but there's all these collectibles/upgrades.

Like the most blatant arbitrary 'no but really there's content!' I've seen in quite some time.

BREAKING NEWS: The Meme Run Bigley update also replaces the noscope sniper rifle with a MS Paint version of the sniper rifle. The creators claim that it was done "for lawlz," the Meme Run Miiverse community is convinced that it was to avoid copyright infringement.

Stay tuned to the Giant Bomb community thread for more news and updates on Meme Run.

EmCee the new scoops

 

[strafer]

You need to play for an amount to unlock it.

That's a surprisingly dramatic turn. The idea that they're lying in fear of getting "abuse" / being seen as sellouts is great.
