I now have pretty much all of Giant Bomb's Twitch videos from 2010 to 2014, and in 720p from early 2011 onwards (there are still some videos that have URLs that you simply can't download or view any more). This equates to:

1,422 videos.
754 GB.

Do you have a record of the failed downloads at all? Each API request returns multiple versions in different resolutions, so where the original fails, we could probably try a lower quality one.

I will PM you this list tomorrow, I'm about to go to sleep and dream of Japanese TV now.

I think he's actually a fan of Gone Home and similar games like that. As a guy who's watched his fair share of shitty pretentious student films, I pretty much agree with his quote even if it's of course a big generalization.

I mean, we know for a fact that he loved The Swapper, for example. That's not exactly "auteur' but I'm pretty sure he's ok with that kind of game.

This weeks UPF was great. all I remember games wise is Elite and Mount Your Friends but all the chatting was great.
 
Thanks to whoever uploaded what was salvageable from Garbage Day!

edit; also I really wish they'd install a brick wall in their current studio. I always loved how shitty and industrial that basement was.
 
Hmm, GS will only have two live shows now.

I liked HoH. I wonder if any of this stuff will affect GB live non premium content.

Like... what?

I can't really think of a free, regular non-premium thing other than bombin'.

What live non premium content?

Edit. Beaten like something that gets beat a bunch.

I suspect it won't, I believe Giant Bomb brings in WAY more viewers for their live programming.

Gamespot was attracting like 40-100 people live. GB brings in thousands. Remember Danny talking about how more people listen to Jeff commute than watch the GS shows?

unsurprised that the gs live stuff is getting the axe. why would cnet bother when they have giant bomb under their umbrella? they'd just be competing against themselves. leave gamespot to do the more structured shows like the point and whatnot.

The big stuff on twitch are super focused stuff based on the big hit multiplayer titles though. They're big because those games are big

I'd say giantbomb is doing pretty well for what is basically a variety show.
