Don't like GAF having a GB thread?

Are the Whiskey Media Happy Hour videos worth watching?
Felix Lighter

I'm not a fan. There may be a couple specific episodes worth checking out but it was some of my least favorite content.
Happy Hour is where Cool Baby came from. Dancing Penguin Will Smith. Creepy Pedo Jeff. RORIE PUPPY LOVE!
You have some nerve, sir.

Seeing as how this page is already super offtopic:
guys, you can report that stuff to the mods.
Babysitting Mama and Creeper Cam in particular are great. Probably a few other notable parts but I'd say skip to the good stuff on those.

I guess I really stuck my neck out there. There were certainly moments. Someone should do a best of the The Whiskey Media Happy Hour and do the community a huge service. I think the good to bad ratio wasn't great but when you aim a camera at the Giant Bomb and Tested crews for hours and hours magic will happen.

Yeah, the Happy Hours shined when Tested and GB did stuff. If anyone plans to watch them, just skip the Comic Vine and Screened stuff. Boring, and because of those segments subject matter they are quickly outdated.
There was some awesome stuff that happened on HH every once in a while. Creeper Jeff, No no no don't shake the baby, most of the stuff Tested did when they actually prepared. That was the exception, though. 90% of the time it was bad, Comic Vine doing live readings of comics, Screened doing 15 minutes of trivia with callers, and Tested/GB not really having something interesting prepared. When it was bad, it was some of the worst stuff Whiskey media did.
Oh I forgot about that hahaha this is so amazing. The Optimus Prime special is killing me haha

Amazon's Virginia EC2 is effed at the moment
Last time this happened was April 19, 2011. The day that Skynet became self aware, no less. This can't be a good sign. There was a story just on the news about a Global Hawk, an autonomous drone aircraft, that we "lost control of" over Maryland, resulting in crash. We're through the looking glass.
I'm going to be an asshole here and say they should split off the GiantBomb stuff from the Happy Hour as seperate videos. Because, and I say this as a comic nerd, did anyone really want to listen to Sara and Tony have boring interviews over the phone that went on way too long? I didn't care much for Tested's stuff, but I liked it a lot more than the Screened and ComicVine stuff.
Hopefully we get Doomsday day live stream, part 2.

So following in the foot steps of Jeff spending unnecessary money, I just bought Persona 4 Golden. I know next to no Japanese so I am just playing it along side the Endurance Run. If any GB staff wants a special P4G correspondent then here you go: "It's Persona 4 but it looks better and there's more shit to do in it."

Oh, that was unexpected good times.
I'm also so close to biting on P4G even though I've already played the PS2 version and the English release is so close. I think if Play Asia had Tokyo Jungle in stock I would've already went for it.

I did it the cheapest way possible and bought 2 $200HKD cards for the Hong Kong PSN store, came out to $60 and they deliver digitally. Only sucky part was changing my Vita over to my HK account, but I did a backup so I can restore easily when I am done.

Tricky is making me want to either immediately start Amnesia or never, ever touch it. I'm not sure which.
Every day since Humble Bundle V started, I've tried to psych myself up to play Amnesia. I still haven't even started it up.
And Ryan is downloading it right now. Maybe we can get some impressions in the next bombcast.

I don't like horror movies, but I love adventure games.... and Amnesia bored me to stop playing it. I dunno. I recognize what it was going for, but it wasn't for me, I guess.
Just play it, guys
more impressions aren't gonna make things better
it's a great unique game
probably not since it's not an adventure game?

I don't want to watch Ryan have a heart attack.
Give him Vinny to ease the tension. Done Deal. I hope the GB guys are reading this. Im producing content for you!
It looks like he's well on his way regardless.

I'm bad enough with jump scares, let alone proper horror, so sadly no Amnesia for me. Great idea though
Also, I'd rather see another lantern run or more Quake 3 than Max Payne MP.
