I was just on Gaming and a lot of people are very upset they can't ogle bikini girls in Fatal Frame

Fortunately I can come here, to my happy place

It's crazy that they felt the need to remove a bikini from an m-rated game where you get chased by murder ghosts and you watch someone slit their own throat. Regardless of the purity of posters' intentions, it's a fucking stupid change.

Just tried watching a playthrough of Phantasmagoria 2. That game looks baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.

You watched wrong.

In this case it is a stupid censor because IIRX the story is the girl who you take pictures of is a model? So it is a case of stupid censorship.

Yeah it's weird. I felt like I had already heard the story before but it was all from Jeff speculating on what he thought might have happened.

[TheMadMan007]

Man.... I really wish Dan wasn't the one doing the Bombastica on Quackshot. Isn't the whole point of them to teach the audience things they don't know? Dan constantly shitting on Disney and not even knowing Gyro Gearloose's name is borderline insulting. Sure I am a Disney fan but the last thing I want is Dan driving this game and crapping all over something he has gone on record multiple times saying he doesn't like nor does he know anything about. I was excited when I saw this on the schedule and now I don't think I can get passed the first 20 mins of this thing.

What does cmd+f mean?

 

[PurpleMoustache]

Mac shortcut for find.

 

[Rainmaker]

But... Dan liked the game.

I mean, he likes and knows a lot about the game and was actually quite good at it. Isn't that the point rather than liking everything surrounding it? Dan might fall back on being too dismissive when it comes to Disney, but he knows that game and that's what the feature is about in my eyes.

Err, he likes the game a lot and knew quite a bit about it.

So what are you even taking about.

 

[TheMadMan007]

True. He does know a bunch about the game itself which is good, but maybe it's just me, but I think it would be better if it was done by someone who actually cared about the franchise it was representing instead of just saying Disney is a bunch of dumb trash for babies and not cool things for cool guys

 

[Felix Lighter]

ruh-roh

We can only speculate what horrible thing was said.

Heh, that's Dan falling back to being too dismissive of something, which is something he's largely left behind. But I took that as a personal opinion and moved on.

Also, I highly doubt anyone else on staff could've done the game justice. Jeff didn't know much about it.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Crazy how much of this Jeff guessed in the 2014 GOTY stuff.

The story stuff is about what I expected but the fact that they've been trying to build a loot based MMOish game with dev tools that make the tiniest of changes a monumental undertaking was not something I expected. It really does explain a whole lot though.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Looney Tunes is better anyway

 

[Lelcar]

Dan can be vocally ignorant about things sometimes sure, but I actually thought that he was super positive and open-minded for this Bombastica. I feel like Dan was extra smooth for this video, so I'm surprised that he's getting railed for this one. The way that he was talking about his personal opinions on Disney and other things were handled with more class than usual imo.

 

[Felix Lighter]

So much better when it comes to humor, that's for damn sure.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

"There's a story about what happened with Destiny, but I bet it'll be a decade before we ever hear about it. I bet my entire life's savings and any non-vital organs on it."

 

[Jimmyfenix]

ruh-roh

:O

 

[Piston Hyundai]

So much better when it comes to humor, that's for damn sure.

If we're being real about it, I always thought that Looney Tunes was a better "the whole family can enjoy it" kind of deal. The jokes always seemed better suited for a general audience, whereas Disney's idea of that comes off as "hey you can take your kids and maybe there'll be a reference or two Mom and Dad will enjoy."

it's on

Brad / Jeff / Dan I hope

"There's a story about what happened with Destiny, but I bet it'll be a decade before we ever hear about it. I bet my entire life's savings and any non-vital organs on it."

Expect that or a;

"We'll NEVER know what went down with Destiny but the shooting feels real gud."

 

[Myggen]

Oh yeah, Let's all listen extra closely to find the spot in the podcast where content was cut and then speculate widely. My guess is a four hour long Monster Hunter rant by Dan.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Looney Tunes was probably funny during the depression, but so was everything that didn't involve eating your own fecal matter to survive the dustbowl.

Ugh, it'll probably be Alex. He plays those most, I think

If it's anything like Unity I want it to be Alex.

He's just very good at calmly pulling a game's nonsense apart.

I love Monster Hunter. Give us BombCast Bradley

There goes the drama

 

[strafer]

Why did Brad suddenly start roleplaying?

 

[killroy87]

I hope it's Brad, just because he tends to at least try to find a balance between bashing a game and playing it seriously. I'm in the minority that isn't chomping at the bit to 100% trash that game out of the gate

 

[GavinGT]

Why did Brad suddenly start roleplaying?

Some of them like to change their Twitter names for Halloween.

[BUNTING1243]

Why do people not like Warren? Remind them a bit too much of when they sucked with girls?

warren seems like he would have very intense opinions on feminism and ethics in games journalism. also memes

 

[tryagainlater]

Ugh, it'll probably be Alex. He plays those most, I think

Alex is probably best. I always thought AC was a series that required zero skill to play until I saw Giant Bomb play it. Alex seemed competent at Unity last year.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

He's just very good at calmly pulling a game's nonsense apart.

Hopefully it's Alex as I agree that he did a good job of pointing out the flaws that Unity had.

Never ever ever ever EVER count out a Jeff Rant on factual basis. They're tis not prophecie, tis historie.

Dan doesn't like AC so I doubt he'd sit in for it.

 

[Empty Space]

Ugh, it'll probably be Alex. He plays those most, I think

Alex will probably give the game a fair chance before he starts hating on it, if its not great, which is not something I think Jeff, Dan, or Brad is likely to do. I want to pick this Assassin's Creed up, but if impressions are bad I won't. I trust Alex to give more even impressions than just about anyone working at Giant Bomb.
