Damn I think I'm going to have to reapply my thermal paste I just applied two hours ago.

You guys do the pea thing or do you spread with a credit card

Pea.

Difference is negligible, but the pea method is both the easiest and gives the most efficient coverage.

 

[strafer]

Enjoy? I think?

FF XIII is a very flawed game but I enjoyed my time with it. Fantastic music too.

Haven't played that long. I'm controlling some weird little anime girl with a weird accent now.

But I do like the characters so far. The last Final Fantasy game I played was 10.

Doesn't that make like seven different games the best game ever?

 

[sammyCYBORG]

If you told me I could have this and nothing else as Giant Bomb's line-up, I'd be more than okay with it.

Patrick, Jeff and Vinny together :'( Two are coasts apart and one works on an entirely new site. Sad.

Sorry Brad, Dan and Drew, you ain't got shit on that dream team.

You forgot Jason.
Rude.

Did the pea, put my heatsink back on, should it sort itself out? I applied some pressure on the heatsink when putting it back on.

Not sure if this is the kind of thing that takes a week to set in or something

No no, you're overthinking it. The processor will heat up and the paste will spread across the surface.

 

[robotrock]

No no, you're overthinking it. The processor will heat up and the paste will spread across the surface.

Solid. Just gonna leave it alone I think.

 

[The Technomancer]

No no, you're overthinking it. The processor will heat up and the paste will spread across the surface.

Yup. Its super easy

 

[Volotaire]

No no, you're overthinking it. The processor will heat up and the paste will spread across the surface.

Yeh it's easy to feel worried about how the paste is applied after you put the heatsink on, but it will spread!

For one of my first builds, I was really nervous. I removed the heatsink off after I had booted the machine to check if it was ok. Paste was spread evenly!

 

[Twin Tails]

 

[strafer]

That Camp game sounds like a vinny game.

 

[robotrock]

So you guys are saying I probably shouldn't have applied pressure right?

No biggie. If I have to reapply let me know. Wish I could take a peak at this thing

 

[Zaph]

So you guys are saying I probably shouldn't have applied pressure right?

You're fine. If you want to be sure, run some CPU bench software for a while and check your temps stay reasonable.

Hell yeah

Waypoint are really fucking intent on using all of Vinny's favorite royalty free intermission songs, aren't they?

 

[The Dear Leader]

Vinny looking like the main character in The Crew.

 

[Twin Tails]

that is a fuckton of people

 

[Piston Hyundai]

It is fucking astounding to see all these people working on this stream.

Vinny, Jason and Drew are killer. Really puts their workload into perspective.

 

[Archaix]

Vinny, Alex, and Jeff back on for the next segment. This is the most cross-coast content Jeff's done since GOTY.

 

[TharpDaddy]

Is there any way to go back and watch GB's segment on the Waypoint stream?

 

[Bubba_Sparks]

Today's Beastcast is a perfect example of why I personally still find Jeff Gerstmann and Giant Bomb as a whole to still be actually valuable, beyond just entertaining: because its so important that people with a decade plus of video game coverage experience are still working and weighing in. There's perspective there that younger journalists just don't have

Agreed!

As soon as I read the description of the episode I said to myself, "boy, this is going to be good!". What an excellent discussion between Jeff, Vinny and Alex. They all have a bunch of experience in the industry which as you pointed out gives them perspective on the shifts in the industry. I sometimes wonder if their swimming against the current. As you hear them describe, at one point in time GameSpot represented the forefront of game coverage. GiantBomb is kind of like a hybrid between the old way and the new. Almost like a bandaid or a bridge. Will we see the industry move towards self published content and YouTube influencers outreach?

 

[mnz]

Is there really no archive of this stream available? What is this, 2014?

 

[Twin Tails]

Is there any way to go back and watch GB's segment on the Waypoint stream?

there is another one right now
gotta wait for archive to go back

Is there really no archive of this stream available? What is this, 2014?

It is still going. There will be one after.

 

[Salarians]

Haven't played that long. I'm controlling some weird little anime girl with a weird accent now.

But I do like the characters so far. The last Final Fantasy game I played was 10.

Vanille is secretly the best character, followed by Sazh.

it has lightning so it is the best game ever

true

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Giant Bomb duders with a company supporting them right behind them. It's like I'm in bizarro world.

 

[sammyCYBORG]

Waypoint stream about to get real good here lads.

 

[strafer]

true

That little bird is cute

Well it's running for another 68 hours lol
Twitch itself starts an archive while the stream is running, but they must have turned that off.

 

[robotrock]

Patrick you need to put your arm around Alex or else my giant bomb head canon is ruined

 

[repeater]

Waypoint stream about to get real good here lads.

You clearly weren't here for the last GB segment :|

 

[Archaix]

Chu Chu fucking Rocket. This is a god damned Dreamcast game.

 

[sammyCYBORG]

You clearly weren't here for the last GB segment :|

I was. This is Chu Chu Rocket son.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Chu Chu Rocket is a great game.

 

[The Dear Leader]

I'm trying to figure out how Waypoint's first stream has better lighting, camera work and video quality than either GB West or East.

 

[FantasyFreak07]

Ya blew it Austin.

 

[AAMARMO]

I'm trying to figure out how Waypoint's first stream has better lighting, camera work and video quality than either GB West or East.

Because of VICE.

Vice does what CBS doesn't.

Just wait til they produce more weekly content..

 

[Piston Hyundai]

I'm trying to figure out how Waypoint's first stream has better lighting, camera work and video quality than either GB West or East.

They have exponentially more people behind the camera than all of Giant Bomb.

 

[robotrock]

I'm trying to figure out how Waypoint's first stream has better lighting, camera work and video quality than either GB West or East.

There's like a 50 person crew

 

[Doop]

I'm trying to figure out how Waypoint's first stream has better lighting, camera work and video quality than either GB West or East.

They have a huge production team.

 

[The Dear Leader]

Vice acquiring GB when?

 

[sammyCYBORG]

Vice acquiring GB when?

Jeff isn't there to play Dreamcast games the deal has been done.

 

[repeater]

I didn't pay attention at the outset but this game is completely incomprehensible.

 

[Gaogaogao]

where do I find jeff's pc specs?
