Not only is Dan the best, but his old man is the tits. Seeing his father made it all make sense, they are two peas in a pod.

No Ryan, then no Patrick, then no Vinny and now instead we have Dan, ugh. What a fucking downgrade. Dan also brings out the worst in Jeff and has pushed the one redeeming person of the podcast, Drew further in the background. I made it 5 minutes in this week before I deleted it.

With that, I am done with bombcast. I still enjoy the website, but this podcast has gone from bearable to absolute shit these days with the addition of Dan. It was a really good run though. Cheers, hope the rest of you can continue to enjoy it, but I can't listen to another minute of their disgusting food talk for an hour or Dan try to glorify the life of a complete scumbag simpleton with Jeff playing the enabler. I will probably tune in during E3's though.

Wow. And here I was thinking that it was a return to the podcasts of old. I think the new foursome has a great mix of bullshit and actual games talk, which is to say 80% bullshit and 20% gaming talk. I think Ryan would be happy and proud.

Apropos of nothing, does anyone know of a YouTube link to the discussion that was had on the Giant Bombcast discussing Skyrim's "clean faces" mod? Really want to listen to that again and I can't find the episode. Google is worthless. Worthless!

I can't get enough of that MGS boss fight theme. Maybe one of the best ever and Metal Gear Scanlon is making me want to play through them all again.

As someone who has never programmed anything ever, the part of the Hack n' Slash QL after they jump to Vinny's save is melting my brain.

How has Mario Party 2 not happened yet?

Dan said about a week ago in this thread that he wanted to get the N64 version of MP2 for the stream, and that he was looking into buying it for the stream. I'm sure he has gotten/will get about 10 versions of the game in the mail after that statement.

As someone who is a programmer for a living, it is easy/easier for me to spot the stuff that needs to be changed but is still a little overwhelming.

Either way I find it very impressive.

It seems to me that it would be extremely difficult for anyone without any programming experience to finish those last sections of the game. I had no idea what I was looking at in the end of that QL. Still, a pretty amazing concept for a game, and it looks like something I'll really enjoy until I hit a brick wall and can't make it any further. Double Fine can be hit and miss for me, but this looks really cool.

late but LOL


This makes me sad we'll never see old school GB review portraits for Dan. Could have been awesome.

his 1 star portrait could have been gold.


Also that Hack and Slash QL is pretty great so far not only because i have an idea whats happening due to knowing some programming (the fact you are given access to that stuff as a gameplay mechanic is pretty fucking great) but also those faces hahaha

those smug looks along with the text are hilarious

Oh Drew... :(

That is some horrible, awful, no good luck.

edit: After reading above I thought it was going to be
wacky collision detection on the stinger but trading killing blows with the Hind?!?! Wow.

Because i think Jeff and the rest of the gang kinda hates Mario party, i'm still amazed that feature actually happened. I think Dan is the only one who actually likes those games. Man i want a Mario party 2 party so bad but i bet it's not gonna happen :(

Dan's said earlier in the thread that Mario Party 2 hasn't happened because they don't have a copy of the game yet.

Dan has confirmed in this very thread that it'll happen. It's been brought up several times now. Have faith in the Danster. :)

I'm going to make sure it happens as soon as we get a copy of the game.

Rename MGScanlon to Breaking Drew.

Destroying Drew, more like. I'm going to be kind of amazed if he plays MGS2 after his happy experiences with MGS1.
Dan, please convince Drew to play MGS2.

The Hatoful Boyfriend QL broke my brain...and yet I'm actually kind of interested in the game now.

Jeff probably went into the Gamespot archives and hid the copy that was there. I doubt he'd be above opening your mail to stop the party from continuing too

I imagine that Jeff destroyed every copy GS had of the Mario Party games, Nights Into Dreams and Yoshi's Island years ago.
