Yeah I can always rip it off Twitch, but then I need to convert the .flv files. Kinda wish this stuff would just go up on the site.
Although, looking at his Twitch page, I can spot several other streams I've missed...

As great as Vinny is, leaving Jeff alone to his madness usually leads to amazing things.

what the hell is going on
You sure are. Until at least twelve hours from now.
Sorry they didn't post anything during a holiday?

It's like Christmas every day at Giant Bomb!
I actually just rewatched the DP Endurance run over the last few weeks, a few episodes here and there. It's still fantastic.
I'm probably going to watch the entire P4 ER again soon. Such a great timewaster.

Why am I completely unsurprised to catch up on twitter and see that Justin McElroy is on Samsung's side in the recent blogger fiasco?
Samsung India were complete dicks, but I can kinda understand his point.
With journalism, especially video game journalism, there seems to be two 'camps'. On one side you have industry vets like Giant Bomb who have been around the block a few times, value their time and only accept the few publisher offers they feel will enhance their coverage in a meaningful way. For every trip to Hawaii or Rome they accept, they probably turn down 5 others.
Then you have another camp (the majority of which are newcomers/bloggers) who piss everyone off by gleefully accepting any and all perks of the job (probably because they haven't yet figured out that these trips aren't really worth it) at the expense of the perceived combined reputation of video game journalists.
Reading that guy's Samsung recap, IMO it's obvious he rationalised far too many blatant alarm bells because he really wanted a fully comp'd trip to IFA.

Why am I completely unsurprised to catch up on this thread only to see there is some weekend fiasco dealing with bloggers and twitter
I swear these guys have too much time on their hands when not working
Why are you talking about Justin McElroy in the Giantbomb thread?
He didn't really side with Samsung at all... Samsung didn't even side with Samsung in that little fiasco.
I expect another day of nothing. A "I love Tuesdays" if we are lucky.

This could just be Ryan's sense of humour, but...
Jeff said they recorded the panel on his stream yesterday.
Ryan is just being a jerk because thats how he rolls.

They need an old 'Hard Copy' style re-enactment with black and white and crazy slo-mo and camera angles that make people look guilty.

Any idea if they recorded any interviews and other videos at PAX?

I would hope so. It would be really sad if the only reason they went was for their own panel.

There might be a video or two from the show floor or whatever, but even there is, it's probably not going to be much. But then Jeff DID just stream out of his room for like four or five hours yesterday, so there is SOME content to watch if'n you's is fiendin' for ya fix.

Well, do you want a podcast today or not?

Nah I'm good.
Yes, please.
I am from Germany. I never get the podcast on Tuesday. Only if Jeff is in charge of uploading in it, then it usually happens earlier.
As long as it's up before 8:30pm EST, otherwise it doesn't really matter to me.

You ungrateful jerks! I want a podcast!
Do we have to pay extra?
