Yeah, and now every Periscope is uploaded there too, so now I can watch Dan's oven as many times as I want!

Okay, so I watched (nearly) all E3's presentations with GB's commentary this year. Made the whole thing a lot more enjoyable for me. Think I'll do the same next year.
Never really watched Giant Bomb videos before, so afterwards I checked out a "highlights" edited video of their Mario Party party (both first and sequel). Great, great stuff.
So! I'm wondering if there's any other GB videos similar to the MPP or other 'don't miss' videos that you guys know of that I should really, really watch? Thanks!

That is a legit issue. There will be episodes without a minute of gameplay.
Well, if you decided to buy a premium membership at some point, I made a list of some of the best premium content. Other than that, this list of good Quick Looks is really solid. Can't go wrong if you just start from the top.
Sounds like the first 10 episodes of P4 ER

Nope, but if there's enough quality material on there I might jump on.
Alright, thanks!

UPF is a weekly segment where they just fuck around and play stuff they find interesting/fun.
Totally worth the membership in and of itself, but also directly supporting them gets you ad-free content (including podcasts) and a bunch of other stuff. You can see everything on the premium upgrade page.
I want to replay MGS4 before Drew plays it and my fucking PS3 doesn't read dual layered blu-rays anymore. New PS3s are still $200+ 8 years after release. Ridic. I guess I could buy some dodgy laser replacement on ebay, though.
Daniel is testing my patience with his periscopes. I wish there was a way to straight rip them, instead of capturing. My computer was unusable for 20+ minutes watching Dan's oven cooking pizza rolls.

True but those were pretty short at that point.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
There is enough of a backlog that it's worth it
Load Our Last Souls/Save (especially Dark Souls and Freedom Fighters), Random PC Game, Bioforge, UPF (though there are a lot fo boring UPFs) etc. will entertain you for days. Literally.

save the old laser and turn it into a diy laser pointer of doom.
Blueray readers are the best lasers.
Problem with MGS4 is that the only parts where it's a good MGS game are the first two chapters. It then throws out all of the interesting stealth elements for the next two chapters before bringing them back for 5 minutes in the final chapter. My NG+ save is totally useless now because it's at the start of Chapter 3 and there's no use for most of the interesting items you can get in NG+.

for real though xpantherx's videos are what convinced me to shell out for premium the first time
I wonder how many other people he managed to snag

Yeah, actually, cinematic only episodes aren't an issue, they have the most potential for the best reactions from Drew and Dan. I look forward to them trying to piece it all together at the end, especially after the ending cinematic. I hated the prominence of the Johnny subplot when I played it but I think I'm going to love that aspect of MGScanlon more than anything so far. I want them to really dig into that relationship and how it wraps up. ha ha
Why not just buy a digital version on PSN.

The problem is Drew doesn't really seem to retain a ton of the stuff from previous games, so he's not gonna pick up on a ton of stuff that MGS nerds do
Felix Lighter

True but while I can imagine he doesn't remember Johnny super well from previous games, there is no missing him in MGS4. That subplot got some extra attention this time around, wrapped up nice and tight too.

Imagine if Suzuki wanted a Space Harrier sequel with the Insomniac team? But nah, we getting Shenmue 3. Congrats internet, you got what you wanted.
Shit was never gonna happen anyway 
While searching for some videographic evidence of Jeff shouting "Fuck Shenmue" at PAX, I stumbled upon this hilarious clip instead:
Jeff Gerstmann vs. The Birds
Jeff Gerstmann vs. The Birds
"COME ON YOU FUCKER.. COME AT ME!"
Seriously, Jeff is right, I wish Far Cry 4 had a bird toggle in the options

I'm not gonna post the link to those YouTube videos I found of Titanfall gameplay with hentai ear licking sound effects dubbed over it but ever since that happened I don't feel anything any more
I forgot about that video.
One of the many things I miss from the old Sausalito days was that everybody was in the room with them. It was great to get live comments from Jeff or Vinny in the background.
"I thought it would be fun..."
Post this just before a thread gets locked.

Which UPF was the one where they watched some sony trailer stuff? It had people screaming from some reaction vid and I think the first gameplay demo for MGSV with all the box tech.

Ah, it was on the UPF set. Thanks guys!

That could only be topped if he was wrapping taco bell into the crust.
Fuck that sounds good.

Won't the pizza shell be a blackened husk by the time those things heat all the way through?
Not like this, Dan. Not like this.
A ring of burrito stuffed crust surrounding 8 of those new travel nacho pocket triangle things and then sauce and cheese on top.

Honestly though, still child's play compared to pizza hut.
Yes, it's a meat pie stuffed crust. With ketchup on the meat pies.

H-how are you supposed to eat that?
The biggest secret wasn't that Shenmue 3 was coming, it was that Shenmue actually sucks.

I believe the idea is that you eat the pizza part first and then finish it off with the party pie because you're a fucking animal.

no but games on the dreamcast were perfect tho
Don't burst their happy little bubble until they start ruining other threads. :C
The fact that no one has pointed out that it was on stage at E-fucking-3 and yet still needs publicity is honestly disturbing.

I'm actually super curious how they'd update the system. Would they use Yakuza combat? Or Batman combat? There's no way they're bringing the original mechanics if they want to make it an appealing game in 2016, I sort of wonder what the reception would be to the changes.
On some level it's trickier since it's backed by customers that feel like they have some ownership over the development process.

So that pizza pizza is going to be one of their new backgrounds on UPF right?
