Giant Bomb #32 | Fuck All Nazi Scumfucks

That's my Jeff.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Juggalos are like mostly harmless though.

Like you kind suspect there's some crossover but maybe not?

 

[newjeruse]

Ben Pack sure has found a comfort level on these podcasts.

 

[Zaph]

I think we got different writers in AoM.

Jason Blair wrote it.
Steve Jaros and Drew Holmes wrote Saints Row 2.
Steve Jaros wrote 3.
Steve Jaros wrote IV

So there we go...

This is all on Jason Blair not being Steve Jaros.

another casualty caused by the vile, wasteful garbage known as Dota 2

So both Brad Muir and Steve Jaros are now writing card descriptions, that's just fucking great

 

[imBask]

it's a good bombcast this week and Ben is fine, ya jerks

I don't miss the Bombcast.

 

[Mr. F]

I wonder how much shorter the podcast would be cutting out all the silence from the email air balls Brad throws out. Giving a prompt for the topic is a good change of pace going forward hopefully.

PUBG hit over 7 million in sales for an early access game that has one map and little traditional marketing? That's fucked up.

Can you imagine if other games were beaten into our heads by streamers as much as this one was?

 

[imBask]

Even the Dota talk was interesting

and I fucking hate Dota

 

[Hindl]

I like Splatoon 2 but don't fool yourself. It's not making the top 10

Exact opposite actually. Most of the violence in ICPs songs are directed at bigots

Same.

That's a very specific thing to know.

*Eyes hindi suspiciously*

Are you hiding a hatchet behind you?

 

[imBask]

yeah idk

Yea, go to the house and knock on the door
Clench my fist and cold clocked the whore
Rape the bitch, and tell a nasty lie
Whip out my shank and cut her eye
I'm down about liking to use handcuffs
Cut off her titties and use them for earmuffs

literally the first song I clicked on in their library

 

[Piston Hyundai]

maybe the "whore" was a klanslady

 

[soundtest]

ICP seems like trash but the type of trash that would appeal to white rebellious 13 year olds who feel that their middle class oppression is a burden they must escape

 

[Antiwhippy]

Is that for or against Juggalos having crossover with Nazis?

 

[imBask]

still reading ICP lyrics

it's like reading a 4chan thread, but it sorta rhymes

 

[drabnon]

Didn't ICP reveal themselves to be devout Christians or something?

 

[Hot Coldman]

pretty sure juggalos are just idiots

 

[LiK]

I think Ben has finally gotten into the groove on the Bombcast. His jokes and conversations flow much better now.

Prey 50% off on steam woop woop.

Also now the RRP is USD60 instead of USD75? Double woop woop.

 

[Rainmaker]

juggalos are honorable

Getting that for sure if the demo sells me.

Splatoon 2 definitely makes top 10 if Abby still feels so strongly in a few months and is willing to/is comfortable enough with GOTY arguments to fight for it.

It might only get 10, I mean. But if she cares that much and only Vinny's negative, it's gonna be hard to push it out.

 

[derFeef]

They will not talk a second about The Surge I bet.
It's pretty good.

She'll save her fight for night in the woods.

Jason: "I just wanna give a brief shout out to The Surge. It's really fucking cool, you sever the limbs and shit, feel like a fuckin' badass but uh y'know you guys didn't really play it so uh I just wanted to y'know, say my piece"

 

[BTA]

She'll save her fight for night in the woods.

Hah, yeah, I was about to edit in "the real question is whether it'll be sacrificed for Night in the Woods or will Night in the Woods will be sacrificed for it", but I didn't want to think about NitW not ranking.

I like how dan's only defense of sunshine is "It's a good game."

 

[imBask]

I like how dan's only defense of sunshine is "It's a good game."

the only counter argument is "the controls are bad" which they aren't, so you know...

That’s Dan’s defense for every game he likes.

Heh. Sounds about right. That game needed more love :-(
Did Brad play it any further than the QL?

 

[Antiwhippy]

Camera is intrinsic to controls.

then I guess Mario Galaxy was a bad game because the camera was really funky at times

Just watched it and the editing is pretty great; makes the segment even better.

The camera and level design are atrocious, as is the art style. It's a fucking frankenstein of a game.

The runs make it sound like the feature is about something else entirely.

Nidogg 2 QL is here. I dunno how you guys do that fancy posting of it all the time though, haha.

 

[LiK]

hestill...does...that...awkward talking bit...too much-BUT....you're right.

Yea, I think that's just the way he talks but he's much quicker in going with the convo now. It's been quite pleasant.

 

[daveo42]

Exquisite Corps turned out better than I expected. The war letter from Abby was a nice touch after all the carnage left in her wake. I actually expected Alex's to turn out about the same, but the early jitters wore off fairly fast, even if he seemed to get a large chunk of help from ghost Vinny.

literally the first song I clicked on in their library

I'm still surprised they got that contract with Disney to distribute one of their albums.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Nah Alex will get a lot of good people killed if he continues to play the way he does.

The early parts are still fairly forgiving.

 

[LiK]

XCOM tutorial section was a pain to watch. Forgot how linear it was. Can't wait for them to get into the later missions.

 

[kiguel182]

Ghost Vinny for best new character

 

[swimbuff]

Nidhogg 2 looks so freaking good, holy shit. Definitely a lock for best styyyyle.

 

[derFeef]

Why did no one on the beastcast pointed out to Abby that the 4K on the Xbox One S is limited to bluray/video stuff? Why are they so dismissive regarding the Xbox brand?
Echoing the "it's only on Xbox? That sucks." say...

Will they?

Enemy Within seems pretty much exactly like Enemy Unknown. I thought it was a new story.

I know it.

The controls aren't bad; they are.
