Random aside. Was listening to the latest Garnett and John podcast, and he said that both he and 2N1T would be at the "Giant Bomb House" for E3. Maybe it does not mean anything, but I would love if they rented out a whole house for the week. Giant Bomb shows filmed Big Brother style sounds cool!
isnt that exactly what they did in previous years?

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
GB run by Xbots confirmed.
They've done it previously with varying success. I mean the shows have been great but apparently it can be hard to count on things going smooth in a non-professional shooting space. But yeah at least twice they have literally rented someone's house/live-in studio
Then again I guess the year they rented professional sets their shit got stolen and it turned out to be a porn set

How does that compare to previous years? ~20 guests a night sounds like an awful lot, maybe too much, unless they're switching out people really frequently.
It will be a region exclusive once we go independent
We won't let you go without a fight!
Irn Bru alone is worth it the union!
Tuesday probably.
Yeah. They had a house the year of the 775 million dollars thing. I think that was the house with rat sightings and a mural of thom yorke on a wall.
So after 90% of the Announcements have been made?
Yeah they'll probably be bringing in groups of 3-5 like they did for GDC. They probably had 20+ people on that night.

They did that last year because they wanted to treat it like the normal Bombcast of the week (nothing stops the Bombast on a Tuesday!), but I agree that I'd prefer them to release it before any of the conferences. I don't think we have any confirmation on when it will be on the site.
listening to John + Garnett podcast, Garnett was pimping his appearance on the Wed bombcast next week and referred to the location as the "Giant Bomb house" maybe its nothing but I really hope they go back to that old house... but they probably won't
Did John say anything? I wonder if he feels any residual guilt about buying GB and then fucking off for pastures new.

and they will cost 5 euros each

Looking forward to Phil Spencer and Jeffrey Knightley.

don't think there is going to be one, they did a +- 15 min segment on the bombcast week before judges week.
Sadly I think that will be it.

Prepare your asses for kissing!
She's... Ugh.
Oh man do you think it will be like Respawn last year? I had to shit it off because it was too much ass kissing and PR talk.
I would love for them to go back to that original house.
I also would like it if someone had the full video of those older E3 stream shows, specifically the full video of the "$775 Million" stream, and if anyone could find the footage of the secret 2nd stream from the people outside the house, that would be nice too.
The Drive is Saturday, right?

They should end that Dan Ryckert charade already and announce Danny as the new hire.
With GB shifting their bias from MS to Sony the Spencer interview is going to be awkward. Unless of course Microsoft announces some game at their show that Jeff likes then the MS bias will make a return. Brad is still mostly a MS mouth piece cuz he slept through the meeting where they jumped ship.

Wasn't that a Justintv stream from Jeff's account? Might already be gone if it hadn't been ripped already. The main streams should be all over youtube, just search GB e3 day 1 and whatever year.
That year was probably the best e3. Fucking hilarious madness all round.

What the fuck do you think is going to happen when they invite a manufacturer exec who is 30 pay grades above them into their show? It's obviously not going to be the same fluid banter they can do with studio devs they've known for 15+ years or young punk indie devs that are in it for the love of the game.
Depends on what you define as "ass kissing". The GB late night streams have never been the place for hard hitting questions, so they'll probably let him talk. Anyone who come to these streams expecting hard questions will come away dissapointed, as it has always been.
I'd really rather they not invite those people, personally. I shut off the stream when they come on too.

Edit: Did they change it mixlr layout? It's horrible

Just tuned in. Mars Volta seems like something Jeff would have switched out immediately.
After Jeff' shitting all over Drive Club I think they're back in MS mode.
Pretty sure it'll be archived. At least I hope so since I plan to listen to the full thing afterwards, lol.
Who's doing UPF tonight if they're already en route? Brad, Drew, Alexis + Gamespot guy?
It's live now, I think it might be archived but don't take my word on that.
Alex has drove with Jeff quite a few times already.
