friendly reminder that Giant Bomb #17 | FLY AWAY LIL WAYNE or Giant Bomb #17 | FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, LET WEEZY RAPTURE are the only sound options for a new OT title

Spoiler

some mod will just change it in a week anyway

Giant Bomb #17 | I ☁ Email Marketing

These are the choices.

This.

Giant Bomb #17 | Guys, are we the "weird GB fans"?

I prefer this one. Picking a reference to a specific video is funny at first, but the further we get from that video and the less funny (and more confusing) the title is.

lots of good stuff in here, i don't know what to pick

we should have a different thread title every day

So how important is interrogating guys? The completionist in me is a bit bothered that Drew barely does it at all. I think I would interrogate and fulton everyone, just for the off chance of getting something useful sometimes.

It makes your life a billion times easier when looking for specialists, prisoners, or VIPs. It also will point you to diamonds, materials, and inform you of where other soldiers are.

On a normal playthrough not done to entertain people on the internet, ideally you'd try to interrogate as many soldiers as you can.

Giant Bomb #17 | Let Weezy Rapture

That's the winner!

I always interrogated whenever I could, makes looking for the target in side ops and missions much easier.

Jeff saw that on a billboard in San Francisco. I think he told the story in on of the recent UPFs.

It was during the last Drew F2P game section

I could honestly see them deliberately avoiding having Alex do it, given his connection.

They seemed to realize that the audience has some issues with him and Harmonix stuff during the Amplitude Kickstarter. Didn't they actually take down a story written by him about that stuff?

He can do it at the 8-4 offices.

If the next OT doesn't have a reference to Weezy rapturing, I will want nothing to do with it.

It won't. All about them marketing emails.

I don't even get the fucking e-mail marketing one

It was a bit from one of the bombcasts I think, I honestly can't say for sure. I guess it didn't leave enough of an impression on me to think it's OT title worthy lol.

I'm just surprised that there is a cloud character, which makes it super cool.

I got a platinum in MGSV and had no idea about switching loadouts. Wasn't a big deal though since I used the same loadout most of the time with only minor variations here and there.

I knew about them then forgot so I never got to benefit from knowing about them, tragic.

I really like how Stasis looks. It's definitely a throwback but the detailed scenes look much better than a lot of recent point and click games

Incredible. Spent so many years playing games from an isometric perspective that it still feels more immersive than first person in most games.

It's from September 25th's UPF when everyone is talking about how much of a piece-of-shit San Francisco has become.

That should have never went out of style. Most old isometric games also hold up much better than all the other 3D styles of their time. Stuff like Caesar III or Commandos still looks pretty good.

Anyone have size recommendations for T-Shirt Sizes from the GB store? I'm always between men's medium and large, and wanted to know if they run on the bigger or smaller side.

They generally run a bit small, so I'd go with large.

X-Com and Fallout aren't action games. I suppose Diablo counts, but I'm thinking more about games where you're in full control of your character's movements and actions, like Bastion, as someone brought up. Most of the ones that I can think of either look better than they play or are outright bad.

Also, Killzone Liberation seems more top-down than traditional isometrics.

Man, I love Dan and Drew, and I love Metal Gear Scanlon, but they should really consider doing base management stuff off-screen and giving us an update when they start a new episode. Just brings the episode to a screeching halt.

but the persona fusing episodes were often really entertaining.

so what mgsv needs is fusions

hell what every game needs is fusions
