[skLaFarebear]

Honestly the Auction Arc in HxH is better for me.

I love a good revenge story.

Yeah that arc was really good too. Second best.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Did someone mention Yu Yu Hakusho? One of the best, if not THE best Manga-Anime transitions with undoubtedly a better ending than the manga version.

It's so damn good. I highly highly highly recommend. So damn good. The pacing is grea

 

[Antiwhippy]

Second best arc is megumi's first piano competition in nodame cantabile.

Third best is takemoto's bike journey in honey and clover.

 

[KnightHart]

I stand behind my desire to have Dan locked in a room with a box set of Evangelion.

Edit: someone from the site should also watch yu-yu hakusho through the dark tournament arc, but I'm not sure who would appreciate it most.

Last year I basically had to lock myself in my room to even bother pressing play on the Evangelion movies. God that was a bad fucking idea. That franchise is the best and the absolute fucking worst at all times somehow. Look at this non-sense: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tummvAZlkLw

Also Gintama is the only Shounen Jump series that matters.

 

[Luke_Wal]

The Danswers with Jason is A-Tier.

Spoiler

Dan making Jason think his girlfriend is pregnant had my jaw on the floor.

 

[ScottSullivan]

I'm looking forward to seeing what Alex thinks of Madden 16. since draft champions is basically arena mode in hearthstone lol

 

[Twin Tails]

Mario Marker QL has been recorded but can't run until it comes out.

 

[stump sock]

Mario Marker QL has been recorded but can't run until it comes out.

they should release it in small pieces over 8 days

 

[Mister Negative]

Wait, the black ops 3 beta is in my steam library

what?

 

[TharpDaddy]

I've seen like 2 episodes of yu yu hakisho

one episode where he's like a ghost or something and he possesses some girl and chases someone then at some point he fights something in the sky i think?

the other i remember was in a cave or a dark place. i think something was fought.

I'm an anime expert.

I just want a feature where Vinny summarizes anime plots for me.

scientifically determined ranking of anime:

detective conan > ranma 1/2 > digimon > ojamajo doremi > dragon ball > shinchan

this is definitely not limited to the stuff i watched in the '90s, nope

 

[Data West]

it'll be a cold day in hell when i put digimon over shinchan

That's not every single anime that's ever been made you fraud!

where does Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo fit into this pantheon?

 

[nckillthegrimace]

The Chimera Ant arc from Hunter x Hunter is like peak battle anime, so watch that last, fledgling anime fans.

 

[daydream]

i feel like shin-chan was way too low-concept for a kid watching it at the time

like, it was entertaining on a basic level but also, in a higher sense, completely incomprehensible

 

[Lunar FC]

Id say on about 98% of Bombcasts/Beastcasts there is somebody who sends in an email that has the same name as a current or former GiantBomb personality.

Lets see if this week keeps up the trend.

 

[daydream]

where does Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo fit into this pantheon?

that ain't '90s, son

now, you wanna talk inuyasha, monster rancher or kamikaze kaito jeanne, let's fucking go

Spoiler

those all land to the right of shin chan

'Until Dawn is Heavy Rain plus teen slasher flick'

I don't think Brad has ever sold me on a game this quickly before

Just finished it. I enjoyed it alot.

 

[Data West]

Just finished it. I enjoyed it alot.

I'm neck deep in games soon, but it's definitely something I'm gonna get. Would be a perfect Halloween game.

 

[Frenden]

I've subbed to premium ever since the GFW podcast dissolved. I wish there was a multi-year package with a little discount. I'd sign up for five.

 

[TraBuch]

Just finished it. I enjoyed it alot.

Think you'll end up playing it again to see how differently things play out?

 

[Piston Hyundai]

god damn, that streets of rage bombcast OP was incredible

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Giant Bomb 17 | Smokin' on that Stop Sign

(Mixlr gag)

[EDIT - They'll stream some packing for PAX, Mario Maker tomorrow and 'that YouTube thing' on Friday.]

 

[santeesioux]

I would totally listen to an anime podcast or maybe some sort of audio commentary of a show like they did with Red October only with Dan watching Evangelion or School Days for the first time or something.

 

[TraBuch]

I think Dan would really enjoy Black Lagoon.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Dan loves the fuck out of Rocky. He'd love Hajime no Ippo.

Giant Bomb 17 | Smokin' on that Stop Sign

(Mixlr gag)

[EDIT - They'll stream some packing for PAX, Mario Maker tomorrow and 'that YouTube thing' on Friday.]

Yes!!!!

 

[Piston Hyundai]

god damn, I don't know if I'm more excited for Super Mario Maker or Metal Gear Solid V

this is going to be the best September 11th ever

I've only played a little bit but...Guys, black ops 3 is...it's good. it's fun! it's good! like, way way better than advanced warfare!

i always think im out but then I get pulled back in!

Treyarch, baby

 

[Mister Negative]

[EdReedFan20]

If GBEast does a Playdate with Until Dawn, would you want them to hold off on doing until closer to Halloween?

 

[Tubobutts]

I really hope GBEAST playing CK2 becomes a regular thing.

If Dan can have like four features, Austin can have one.

 

[Anjin M]

said I would do this so here goes:

we'll be back september 8. thanks for all the kind words along the way, we love the feedback!

I honestly don't know how the two of you do it. Those Bombcast threads are absolutely stunning.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I've mentioned it in the bombcast thread, but anyone mind if I take a shot at the next bombcast thread?

I've got... Ideas...

 

[Renpatsu]

Go for it.

I need some javelin glitching shenanigans to be able to enjoy COD MP again.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

I need some javelin glitching shenanigans to be able to enjoy COD MP again.

just letting you know you are the worst

Spoiler

okay maybe the 1887s were the worst

 

[BreezyLimbo]

1887s were so great in MW2

running around like a headless chicken

 

[demidar]

1887s and his little brother, dual G18s.

 

[Anjin M]

I really hope GBEAST playing CK2 becomes a regular thing.

I'm going to keep plus-one-ing these posts until we get some more CK2.

 

[Mister Negative]

the 1887s were so fun at launch

they were too fun, actually

which is why they were fixed

 

[OdysseusVA]

Post-nerf the akimbo Rangers were the next best thing.

 

[Twin Tails]

Automatic AC130 is still the best thing ever. Also I wish I could be playing this amazing mess right now.


@TracksuitMD

Weigh-ins for Seattle are looking perfect.

 

[Mister Negative]

ohhh my god i forgot about this

man, cod4 was clearly the best cod experience, but mw2 was some special craziness

 

[skLaFarebear]

COD4 was pretty much the only one I played. Gave MW2 a chance, but I was burned out hard and moved on to other things like Halo and Gears of War.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

world at war was the best

we didn't need glitches to be broken as fuck

all we needed was juggernaut and an mp40

 

[jgminto]

MW2 was so great.
