If I pay for a flight going to LA, I'm gonna be pretty pissed off if they drop me off in North Dakota and pretend like it was our destination the whole time.

This description is definitely not apt.

It's more like if you bought a plane ticket that could take you to any random place in the world, then you got pissed off because it only took you to North Dakota. Screwed over by expectations, not unfinished guarantees.

Funny because I distinctly recall Brad in his early days at Gamespot writing up a story and an instructional piece about how to assemble a DIY water cooling system into a gaming PC. At least someone at GB has experience doing this stuff.

Is there a Wasteland 2 QL and/or review coming? I've stayed blacked out on this game. I really want to know if it's worth the $40.

Most people seem to enjoy it. I also really like it.

Didn't know it's 40, glad I backed it for the 15 bucks back then.

Oh man, can't believe I missed this live.

Haha, I love how he snuck Dateline into that list. But yeah, that's a solid list.

The expectations were set by the people selling the game. Any flight could take you anywhere, you just have to hope the pilot doesn't decide to be an asshole and fly it into a mountain because he didn't realize it was actually a long hard trip that he didn't want to take any more.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Dan likes Ali G? How can one man be so awesome?

 

[Felix Lighter]

Is that gif new or is that from the 1st video? Oh man, the finger on the underside of the CPU. No hesitation. Just grabbed it like a toy.

 

[alr1ght]

Dateline is To Catch a Predator. It should read Dateline: To Catch a Predator

It's from the second video.

I been working on my GB backlog and I just got around to watching Akiba's Trip QL and I'm pretty sure there's a shot of the maid cafe I went to.

I believe it was this building in the center, 4th floor.

 

[Alfredo]

It's from the second video.

Is there an unofficial archive of this part? I think the official archive cuts out a lot of it, supposedly due to audio sync issues, and it's just Vinny screwing in the power supply.

it's probably on the "gamespothdflash-f.akamaihd.net/" server, but there's no way that I know of to pull the url. It's possible to do when it's playing originally.

 

[daydream]

I've been rewatching Musou QLs like I said I would, and Vinny's story about how his wife (girlfriend at the time) burned down a Gundam figure of his with the excuse that it just came too close to a candle (lol) cracked me up again.

Hey , did you want to create the bombcast thread when it is uploaded?

 

[daydream]

Hey , did you want to create the bombcast thread when it is uploaded?

Uh, sure, I can do it. Unless that other guy is quicker or the cast is super late.

I was actually thinking of messaging someone to make some fancy banners again, make the threads look a little nicer, you know? It'd take some time, though.

Just thought you'd like to know as you seem to have nice stuff prepared. Banners sound great.

I don't have anything prepared, haha. I wish I had some basic Photoshop skills to make some semi-decent banners but I have to rely on other GAFfers for those. I'll try and look for someone to create a nice looking, easily editable template for a banner that contains the episode description, date, runtime, etc., just like the one vitaminwateryum used to make. Obviously there'd be some text editing involved to update the banner but that, I think, everybody could do with a free program.

Fantastic video.

Most people wouldn't be able to admit mistakes like that.

really funny.

 

[Teddified]

Hah, great video. Finally an end to the PC saga (Hopefully).

 

[Felix Lighter]

Beast PC closure. I feel better now. Vinny's a good sport but I think he wanted people to know, 1. he's been around the PC building block and 2. building PCs isn't as complicated as the videos might have made it seem.

No, Grandpa Gator has always been named Grandpa Gator. Air Force Gator did have a father (Big Daddy Gator), but they didn't have a good relationship and he presumably died in Vietnam. This will be covered in Air Force Gator 3: Cold Bloodlines.

Alright Dan, you got me. Ordering both paperbacks come payday.

I'm getting dangerously close to buying Dan's books.
