Amiibos are the downfall of humanity. Mark my words.

 

[LiK]

you know Jeff is gonna buy Bayonetta amiibo

 

[skLaFarebear]

Catching up on last week's bombcast and it seems really weird they didn't bring on Jason considering all the fighting game news.

Also, even Jason isn't immune to the amiibo disease. There's an amiibo for everyone.

 

[JPBrowncoat]

I just bought a Jigglypuff amiibo.

Spoiler

Plus Roy, Fox, Olimar, and Captain Falcon.

 

[The Technomancer]

If this is the general tone of the work Austin is going to be bringing in consider me all in

Just to burn it

Yoshi would be first.

Doing introductory Giant Bomb Presents podcasts for the guest contributors makes it much more likely that I'll actually read the articles instead of just appreciating their existence. Good idea, wreckthelaw!

Nope: http://kotaku.com/does-obama-collect-amiibo-or-what-1753230015

UPDATE (4:37pm): Wait a minute. As our commenters have pointed out, these aren’t in fact Amiibo but are instead actually part of the old Super Mario mini-figure collection. OBAMA COLLECTS SUPER MARIO MINI-FIGURES.

 

[skLaFarebear]

Hipster Obama collecting Nintendo figures before Amiibos were a thing.

 

[Salty Catfish]

He only doesn't have any amiibos in that shot because he sold them all to Dan on eBay already.

Let's convince him to do this as a Breaking Brad. Or wait don't convince him cause he won't do it. Tell him not to do it.

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

brad isn't even that good, not unless he can finish John Romero's latest doom wad without resorting to cheats.

Ugh, wouldn't be surprised if there's an influx of new accounts commenting under that guest article now because a certain shitty Reddit community has linked to it. Not very surprised.

why would they want to give her shit? I'm not familiar with Heather as a writer so i dont know if she's pissed off some gators before

Well it's always nice to give the mods a workout now and again.

he's a god

 

[Antiwhippy]

Can a non wizard person turn water into wine?

 

[Bowlie]

I'll bring him to a knife battle.

 

[MG310]

That anime fighter seems pretty good and like most anime fighters I will probably never play it.

 

[NumberThree]

When you've injected one game you've injected them all, really.

Yes he is.

The link there has such an inflammatory and inaccurate summary of the article that it's borderline self-parody.

sure, he just needs some grapes, some yeast, and some time.

 

[Megasoum]

Hey guys I could use you help on something...

My friend decided to build up a GameCube game collection and wants to buy the games I still have in storage. I'm happy to sell them to him but I have no idea how much I should charge?

He's a friend so I don't want to rip him off but I have no idea on the actual value.

So I have

Resident Evil 4
Metroid Prime 1
Star Wars Rogue Leader
NFS Hot Pursuit 2 (disc only)
Wind Waker
Zelda Collector's edition (Zelda 1, 2, Ocarina and Majora) http://s.emuparadise.org/GCN/Covers/The Legend of Zelda Collector's Edition.jpg

And finally Zelda Twilight Princess

Any help would be really appreciated.

Searching 🔍 on eBay for "sold listings" is a good way to gauge the value of those old games.

I would love to see this just to read all the comments screaming about how he should have done this instead of that.

 

[Myggen]

I never liked playing on Ironman in XCOM, it always seemed unfair more than hard to me.

I'm not hardcore enough for that either. I just wanna enjoy the game.

Giant Bomb's #8 Game of the Year 2015 is part of the new Humble Bundle:

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger and Rayman Origins are both incredible games. You're an idiot if you don't jump on that for a dollar.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

I'd have been more willing to play ironman mode in EU if the game hadn't been as buggy as it was.

 

[Zaph]

It's embarrassing how difficult I find vanilla XCOM. Can't imagine the other modes.

The only Rayman game I enjoyed was 2. I don't think I want to add to my ridiculous backlog with Ubisoft games.

Well, too bad. Check your PMs.

I think it's for people like me who can't help but savescum when things go badly. These games are designed for you to experience some of those and learn the consequences of your actions, but I tended to savescum in Enemy Within a lot so Ironman mode helped out a lot.

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

The $1 tier of that humble bundle is amazing. All three games are worth your time, especially for ~$.33 per game.

Looks like I'm buying Nitro+ just to play Sonico

If anyone buys this and ends up with an unwanted copy of the Crew, I'd be happy to take it off your hands.

I'd buy the bundle but I have almost literally everything else

 

[BearPawB]

I save scum all day every day.

But part of me is thinking of going Ironman in X-Com 2. (on default difficulty, I am not crazy)

i mean it's less rewarding than a gunpla so they really should consider changing their fixations

 

[Fantastapotamus]

I never like those kind of modes. It's great that they are there but I will never use them. It's just too frustrating to me. Same with the Perma-Death modes for games like Diablo or Witcher. I can't even imagine playing 50 hours, dying and having to start all over again.
