Also, I think he would've been better off using a slower firing, high damage gun. The boss isn't vulnerable for very long.

Oh, whatever dude. I don't especially care for The Witcher but if someone made a fantasy third-person action-RPG I would say "Hey it's like The Witcher", not "Hey it's like Skyrim but third-person". I don't even care that much, but you don't need to completely misinterpret my argument.
There's always a bombcast.
Mainly Friday or late in the day streams with same day archives. I imagine they leave them to encode and publish without the time to check them. The alternative would be holding archives until the next day (or after the weekend) like with quick looks.
A simple animation of a giant ass metal door slamming behind him would have silenced a lot of problems.
If one of them literally dying doesn't stop it nothing will. Ever.
They're even prepared for when the apocalypse inevitably comes.
bug out bag and ham radio podcast. i'm in
Nothing stops the bombcast.
Alright alright, that's what I thought I just misheard what was said at the end of UPF.

Giant Bomb, why dost thou punish my person for watching thy fresh archives?
Rorie saying "eff, eff, ecks" for Final Fantasy X and "a-see three" for Assassin's Creed 3 makes me want to punch his puppies. I'm ok with writing FFX or AC3 but when it comes to pronunciation, it sounds incredibly dumb.

UPF: Chicago isn't up yet, is it? I couldn't find it this morning, and missed it yesterday. I need my Giant Bomb Central fix.
But seriously, the fuck is wrong with saying an abbreviation? I'm sure as fuck not saying "Assassin's Creed Three" everytime I need to refer to that game, because that miserable shit pile cost me enough time from my life already. (Although I'd say eff eff ten.)
You're a monster.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
Wait, how do you pronounce it?

I honestly can't tell if you're serious or not.
Probably some low-class piece of garbage from Liverpool, right?
Would be sad if true. Glad I caught it live, and got my Lang fix.So the chicago stream wasn't archived
Yep, it's pretty much the norm here in Germany.
If you're already on the subject of Assassin's Creed, then just name them by the numbers or subtitles. "Two" for the second
and best
you're right though, let's not talk about that piece of shit (or pee oh ess) game ever again.
it's too close to SSX anyway

I guess he meant /viː/ /aɪ/ /aɪ/ (VII). The X in FFX stands for ten, so pronouncing it as the letter x is pretty stupid. :lol
And yes, Resi is the nickname/shorthand for Resident Evil in German. (I hate it.)

It may be stupid but it's a pretty accepted way to say it. Everyone knows what Rorie or anyone saying that means, being pedantic about it is even sillier.

Hey it's a free country, he can call it whatever he wants.
As long as we agree that it's stupid.
Everyone knowing what it means doesn't make it any less stupid. I guess we should fully embrace grammatical errors then too, right?

Many thanks.

Language is ever evolving. It wouldn't be a stretch to see "ecks" be the norm in this context in the future. It's why I don't tend to get too bothered by this sort of thing, I feel like people forget how often and quickly language changes.
Can I get it as well? I'm Patryn on GB as well.

Anyone having issues with the site just now? I went to the billing page to change my sub to yearly and it just won't load. Then I went to the forums and when I do a search it throws up a 500 errror.

On the Mac version of VLC it's G. Just mentioning it because I had to figure it out this morning
