I would love to see Jeff play Snatcher. The VO in the game still holds up pretty well. And the interactions between Gillian and Jamie are some of favorite moments. Such great emotion and chemistry.

Jeff not liking the AKI wrestling games fucking baffles me. I love those games so damn much.

 

[thepotatoman]

Yeah, I want to say someone emulated that as well for a while.

Funny enough, the MMO they introduced - "The Realm" - is still up and running. They still charge for a subscription!

Man, The Realm is the first thing that taught me the fact that a thing called the internet even existed, mostly because I couldn't play it because of that fact.

I don't know if I want to satisfy that 20 year old curiosity or avoid it with the knowledge that it'll never live up to all the things I imagined it might have been.

I don't remember anything about it, other than the fact that I liked playing it because it basically looked like a Sierra game. Also, I remember camping a spawn point for some rare pants. lol

 

[justjim89]

Jeff needs to do that burger challenge. That's an awesome idea.

Majora's Mask, Super Metroid, Yoshi's Island and Resident Evil. God damn.

 

[Brashnir]

I guess we could add it to the list:



Majora's Mask, Super Metroid, Yoshi's Island and Resident Evil. God damn.

I don't think he hates Super Metroid; he was just disappointed that he got it right when it came out and then beat it in a few hours. He's right about all of those other things.

 

[Xater]

Majora's Mask, Super Metroid, Yoshi's Island and Resident Evil. God damn.

Well Majora's Mask sucks so he is right there. How anyone can dislike the AKI wrestling games though is beyond me.

 

[jgminto]

Majora's Mask, Super Metroid, Yoshi's Island and Resident Evil. God damn.

Alien/s isn't on that list. Mad hate for it on the latest bombcast.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

I guess we could add it to the list:

Seinfeld (the show and the comedian)

Damn right

 

[Volotaire]

I guess we could add it to the list:



Majora's Mask, Super Metroid, Yoshi's Island and Resident Evil. God damn.

I think he came around on CSGO.

 

[LackingSaint]

The Story Hour Adventures Quick Look is still easily my favourite QL they've ever done. So many great lines, and you can't go wrong with Vinny/Jeff/Ryan.


"That's not the bookcase!"

 

[Hypnopompy]

http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/quick-look-farming-simulator-2011/2300-3554/

This was the first piece of GB content I watched. Bit of a slow burn, but worth it for the last 10 minutes or so.

 

[Xater]

Ok what kind of weirdos are the GB crew where meat would for some reason disqualify chicken?

Also beef Bratwurst is godlike.

 

[popo]

What the fuck is with the bombcrew's fixation with having meat = beef?

It was mainly Vinny, which is odd because I thought italians used a lot of pork. Italian meatball, I would expect to see some combo of beef, pork and maybe veal.

are google search results tailored? I'm wondering if I should be worried about me searching 'endurance run' and not getting any marathon training results, but entirely persona 4 results.

It is number of pages with endurance and run next to each other. Since there are hundreds with those words at GB and fitness sites have numerous different combos such as endurance training or distance run, GB it going to be high up on searches.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Coyote Ugly is a great movie

 

[Antiwhippy]

This spelunkin' episode is pretty damn good.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I agree with Jeff's views about Anime , Ryan Davis's Shirt Ideas , Lil B and Tekken 4

Seriously fuck Tekken 4.

 

[Blu(e)]

I had to log in to say Nidhogg looks incredible. Look super fun with some friends. Have the developers mentioned other platforms?

From what I could find they are working on Linux and Mac. A console port is also something they are looking into.

 

[LackingSaint]

This spelunkin' episode is pretty damn good.

For sure. I love that by moving into the CaH office, Patrick has introduced a whole new vibe to some of the GB content. Hopefully this could lead to more live show projects with Max, Greg and the other folks at that office.

Nose cam is my favorite cam !

Definitely, it was good to see people more knowledgeable at the game.

 

[demidar]

Maybe Patrick can set up a Giant Bomb satellite office.

 

[Curufinwe]

I agree with Jeff's views about Anime , Ryan Davis's Shirt Ideas , Lil B and Tekken 4

So Chie is your favorite anime girl, too?

 

[robotrock]

So Chie is your favorite anime girl, too?

She's definitely mine

 

[Zaph]

Maybe Patrick can set up a Giant Bomb satellite office.

No joke, the way Max is using his CAH success to become more about a brand than a specific product, I wouldn't be completely surprised if this came about in some form. Jeff already has a lot of ties to Chicago.

 

[Data West]

Nidhogg seems kind of fun but nowhere near worth 15 dollars? Maybe it's just me.

 

[skynidas]

Nidhogg seems kind of fun but nowhere near worth 15 dollars? Maybe it's just me.

i would say it is only worth that price if you have people to play locally

 

[obonicus]

Coyote Ugly is a great movie

Can't fight the moonlight.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

The VO was leagues better than anything else at the time but isn't as strong these days. Still, it'd be worth it just to see jeff's reaction to the shitty lightgun segments.

 

[IndieJones]

You go ahead and add Star Wars to the list of things Jeff hates.

He thinks it's "hell of dumb".

He's not wrong.

Thought Jeff liked dumb things.

 

[Xater]

Thought Jeff liked dumb things.

Jeff's tastes are extremely random and no one can predict what he will like or dislike.

 

[CrazyDude]

I think he hates endurance runs as well.

 

[LiK]

I think he hates endurance runs as well.

But secretly loves them.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I don't think there's anyone on the crew I agree with 100% of the time and no one I disagree with 100% of the time.

Vinny is my twin except for Flower.

 

[Data West]

I agree with Jeff enough that it worries me.

Except about Predator.

 

[Oxx]

trek 4 lyfe

Isn't Jeff literally invested in Star Trek Online 4 lyfe?

 

[IndieJones]

I'm at work so I haven't been able to watch the Quick Look of 3089 yet, but I hope that the guys are more open minded than some of the site's commenters are. I think it's a fun little gem of a game and find the graphics charming.

 

[Kerned]

Vinny is my twin except for Flower.

Is he pro-Flower, or anti-Flower? Because fuck Flower...

 

[LiK]

Is he pro-Flower, or anti-Flower? Because fuck Flower...

anti. Flower is great man.

 

[Xater]

I don't think there's anyone on the crew I agree with 100% of the time and no one I disagree with 100% of the time.

Vinny comes pretty close to my tastes.

 

[Kerned]

anti. Flower is great man.

It just didn't do much for me.

 

[symphonask]

Over 150 hours in Dark Souls, never seen anything like this lol

I'm proud of you, Scoops

 

[FStop7]

They didn't mention WWE All Stars in the list of greatest arcade wrestling games.

It's phenomenal.

 

[dalVlatko]

Spelunkin' with Scoops continues to be great.

Its amazing how every episode ends in a new, hilarious way.
