Least capable, but most enthusiastic.
Dan would probably be the reason you have to get rid of a body. "Guys, I just cooked for my girlfriend and I think I might have poisoned her."
Jeff would get that body dealt with no questions asked.
Hold up.
Are you suggesting our Dan Ryckert is not a connoisseur who knows the intricacies and nuance of a fine champagne?
For shame.

I can't tell the difference between $10 champagne and $100
Gotta give them time to settle in the studio after the E3 truck arrives lol
What sort of fan would I be if I didn't have unreasonable demands?

Do we know if they are even going to bother putting the equipment back into the studio or if they'll just start the move down to the new space?
I don't think they're moving to the new studio until mid July or something (someone correct me if I'm wrong, I know Danny said something about this).
Jason is your man, he has even hinted about his "criminal past" so you know he would have your back.

Just watched the the fortune street TNT for the first time and it was fantastic, that's probably the best TNT I've seen so far.

Has Giant Bomb ever played Silver Surfer on NES?
As I feel that game's music is right up there with the best of them

Probably the best TNT they have ever done. Battlefield Bad Company 2 with Matt Kessler is a close second.

My favourite is You Don't Know Jack with the shock games.
Yeah I watched it like two weeks ago, it's seriously underrated as Giant Bomb content as far as I'm concerned. It's just sublime watching the shit that goes on in that video.
that's tim follin quality for you

treasure master world 1
it's the commodore heritage. it's not just those tracks, it's the whole soundtracks. in a lot of cases, his music was by far the best (or even the only good) thing about a game.

So are we taking bets when MGS4 will start ? I say the week after July 4th.

That was from Extra Life, not TNT.

Thanks to this E3, we're in for a really weird 3 years. Buckle up.
I'm gonna say the week of July 12. After vacations and stuff.

What happened with shemnue fans?
I'm watching this now. I never watched TNT regularly because every time I watched it, it was bad

Ah whoops. Life before "Vinny shocking his balls" was kind of a blur.
The Kickstarter has stagnated a bit, which is entirely normal for a Kickstarter, so some Shenmue fans seem to be getting a bit desperate. Talk about trying to spam PewDiePie, Angry Joe etc. on Twitter to try to get them to "promote" it etc.

Final Fantasy VII fans are going to be crazier, just wait. Shenmue fans at least seem to understand that the game will probably be super small and they're lucky it exists in any capacity. Expectations for the FF remake are going to be astronomical. Square doesn't stand a chance.

as far as I can tell, reality is setting in, and the responses are about what you'd expect
oh yeah for sure. there is literally no direction they can take with it that won't piss off a significant portion of the people looking forward to it. no matter how good it is.
e: lol
I don't get it. The Venn Diagram between Shenmue fans and PewDiePie audience is two distinct circles in my mind. Are they hoping that there are die hard Shenmue fans who watch Youtube gaming channels that haven't heard about this? It's a head scratcher.

Ah whatever, by trends it has a pretty good chance of cracking 10 mill. Those cats shouldn't worry about it.

I remember him talking about pretty much having a fight club with his friends. Jason is clearly the secret toughest duder.
Probably true, but with the amount of subscribers and followers PewDiePie has, something from him will probably always push the needle at least a little bit.
Yu Suzuki's announcement yesterday that he expects the Kickstarter to provide most of the funds and him saying he'll need $10m to create a true open world game is probably why some people are getting a bit desperate. It indicates that Sony isn't getting behind this in a major way, which makes sense given that they let the game go to Kickstarter in the first place. It'll probably hit close to $10m anyway.
I imagine the kind of fizz they give way at a bar is similar to the kind you buy at the strip club. Two dollars a bottle and 10000% markup.
Neither can the strippers.
It depends how cheap it is.
$10 is a kind of sweet spot. Like a lot of people will not be able to pick between $10 and $100 bottles, but most can tell the difference between $2 and $10 bottles. It is the "buy the second cheapest bottle of wine on the menu" strategy.
I wouldn't be surprised if it hits $10m unless it totally stagnates for some reason, which Kickstarters rarely do. Anything close to $10m doesn't sound like a lot of money for a game like that, but I guess they're not exactly aiming for The Witcher 3-like graphics.

pewdiepie made skate 3 sell 50% of its LTD in the UK in the past year. That dude can do anything.

No secret about lol, iirc he has a martial arts background as well, with Dan trying to get him to come muay Thai with him but then realizing sparring with Jason would be a bad idea

Right? Just some really great content in addition to the absurdity.
I'm excited about how everyone is buzzing about VR coming out of E3, even those who were generally skeptical. It's really happening!
Is Valve supposed to have an event this year before the Vive comes out? Seems odd that they would have zero presence at E3 when their headset is coming out first.

I don't think they've announced anything, but I would imagine they'll have a big event before release. It wouldn't make sense for them not to have something like that.
