I'll say this, and this is based SOLELY on what miller is saying, so unless you don't want to know what the game is like at all, this should be safe:
Edit: wow, never heard Miller talk about Ground Zeroes before, but his views are exactly how I feel about it. He says he didn't enjoy it because it felt like a shoebox, you get dropped in the middle and there's no place to hide and it's just not enjoyable for him. I feel the same way. I like the gameplay, I just never really liked the environment of the base in Ground Zeroes. Playing it makes me...anxious. I guess that's the best way to describe it.
It sounds like it's Peace Walker, but what Peace Walker should have been. More open areas, more varied mission structure, more varied ways to go about things. I don't know how to feel about this. It'll be easier for me to play for sure, since I can just play it on PC instead of having to hook up my PS3, but I hit a wall in Peace Walker where it just wasn't fun anymore.

Between the Crusader Kings 2 play-though and Kings of Dragon Pass he is really firing on all cylinders.
And I've said it before; he has the best laugh of the site.
A Redditor ripped DMX Goomba into a sound file, if anyone's interested in that!

Started a new job, and I swear that I have a co-worker who is a doppelganger of Vinny.

in non-spoilers of anything news, i finally got my new desk all set up with the LEDs and stuff
the LEDs cycle through colors! they're neat! thanks ikea!
PICS.
Antiwhippy is the new hire confirmed.
I went into this saying if this is anything but a high pitched Jeff laugh I am set to disagree.
It should be Brad reviewing MGSV, in my opinion.

Nah, I don't think it's cool to post pics of people without their consent.
Same balding bearded look, same somewhat goofy attitude, though lesser considering the environment I work in as opposed to giantbomb's environment.

He seems like he would be the most impartial of the bunch, I'd like to hear his opinion on it too.

I want them all to play it, as I want all the GB crews' opinion on the game. Reviews and who reviews it are meaningless to me.
I'm sure they all will. I'm looking especially forward to the GOTY podcast

It's going to be a great year for GotY content. Last year was such a bummer.
I really hope somebody other than Dan feels really strongly one way or another about it. The most boring possibility is Jeff and Brad feeling "Yeah, it's pretty good I guess" about the game.
It has a horse in it and it's an even numbered MGS game. 0/5 stars

Jeff likes even numbered MGS games.

Jeff is anime?
Back to elementary school with you
I've been avoiding most media, but I think I saw a video where you can get a jeep dropped to your location via helicopter.
Yeah you can steal any vehicles afaik so that helps a lot I'm sure.
I think Drew will really like it. He seemed to really enjoy how GZ played.

That's more accurate for Brad I think.
He will like the controls but on that trailers video he said he dislikes open world games.

Some people don't like to hear what needs to be said.
Every episode has been fantastic except for the Samantha Kalman episode. I love me some Samantha Kalman but there was a tad too much Sentris talk, IMO.

I still end up enjoying the Bombcast more. I never get tired of listening to Jeff.
