Jeff is excited and happy about everything. Also don't have to go to as many meetings anymore, got more of a buffer between the site and the business side of CBSi. It was a good video, you should watch it when you have the time if you're Premium.
I'm always up for happy Jeff. I'll watch it next week, just don't have the time right now. Thanks for the summary!
It's all relative.

I'm still wondering who's the fucking monster on that staff that found redeeming qualities in Bionic Commando 2009
I'm also curious if the traffic the site did during E3 bought them some more of a buffer and benefit of the doubt from the suits.
That video got me to find Bionic Commando again and try it out last night after dropping it mid campaign however many years ago.
I quickly noted why I dropped it as I was in the middle of a big open air section that required pinpoint swinging between buoys lest you fall into the radioactive death water. But once I muscled my way past that I got back to some city and cave sections and the swinging actually remains really fun. Sure, the shooting is pretty clumsy and there is blue death goo on the buildings that keep it from being particularly open, but I still managed to have a pretty good time with it as I was swinging up and down a broken highway while being chased by two assault hovercraft things.
So I might keep playing it, god help me.

Spencer's wife being part of his arm, or whateverthefuck it was, is the worst "twist" in video game history. Fighting the moon in Dead Space 3 is the second worst.
Anyways, Shovel Knight looks like fun.

The song is terrible. How awkward Alex and Jeff look is the highlight. Alex more so.
I like em!
There is something there that'll develop over time. Drew is such a little kid (in a good way) when it comes to new and exciting game prospects and when Jeff gets excited about a game it's infectious. Crimsonland is a good example of that.

I'm sure this has been discussed and sorry for not doing too much research but where's Brad and Vinnie at? They haven't been in the past 2 or 3 QL's. I figured Vinnie and Drew would be all over this Spintires.
Brad left, moved to NY with his family. Vinny is just on vacation.
Vinny is now based in New York. The only QL's he'll be in are ones with him and Alex.
Brad's on vacation this week.
Greg's filling in for both of them

Well I figured someone was saying what the deal was but it was 2 different responses that I quoted.
If you haven't aleady, you should watch the first video Vinny and Alex put out from NY: http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/how-to-build-a-beast-episode-01/2300-9144/
THE VIDEO WAS PHAT

I like that Drew is less stoic in conversations. Although the still needs to find his tone.

Just finished it a few minutes ago. Good stuff.

These are great. If animated avatars were still a thing people would use them in no time.

That's more straight up Jeff and Alex than I thought I thought it was going to be a 2Human-like situation.
thanks, it's just what I needed
You're my hero.
Hungarian Dance No. 5 in G minor by Johannes Brahms.
That also happened to be my favourite sequence in chapter 1 and also happened to be a great introduction to Anna's character.

Not sure I'm on board with Jeff/Drew but it will work itself out.
My issue was that Ryan and Vinny were the funny men, Jeff and Brad were the straight men. Drew was mostly serious, and Patrick can do either sometimes. So lately it feels like Drew has been a bit less serious and it's starting to work.

It was only a matter of time. He does QL's with the "funny guys", does podcasts with the "funny guys" and is taking up the role as video editor and producer once held by a very funny guy.
Either he's opening up more or is realizing his larger role for the group.
It's all positive either way.

I love Drew and all his crazy simulator shenanigans, but I think he's been trying a bit too hard on this week's Quick Looks with Jeff. It feels like he's trying to make sure there's not a single quiet moment during the video.

Well at least we know that a "funny man" would be joining up pretty soon.
Arthur Gies is a hilarious man.
