I'd be surprised if they ever do an endurance run. Vinny probably doesn't have a lot of free time due to his kid. I also don't think that an ER is going to happen anytime soon.
 
I tried to watch the endurance runs. Just couldn't get into them.

Until they do a Sleeping Dogs endurance run it'll probably always be like that for me.

Neither could I for a long time, until I started to treat them like podcast and only watching the actual videos when story beats took place. I almost never actually watched any of the combat part of Persona 4.
 
They have too many shows now to do an endurance run. It would be interesting though if they did it with some form of rogue-like, and an hour a week tried to see how far they could get. It would have to be a pretty damn good one though to be interesting for that long.
 
eff this sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit. I want to watch it but there is no archive

Just another example of why pax is the worst thing that happens to giant bomb every year, all so a few people can ask them the worst questions ever conceived at a panel and en they taunt us with the video that no human can watch because it is too painful and awkward.

When is next endurance run?
775!
Is bard leaving lol?

If they need time to let their hair down the just take a proper holiday ffs
 
I'm so sad I couldn't make it to Rock Band Night this time :-( Sounds like it was awesome again. At least I won't be hungover this year for day 1 of PAX East.

Also had no idea it would be Twitch streamed or I would have watched it. God damn it!

You know the questions bit only takes up a maximum of 10 minutes or so at the end right? You could watch the rest of the panel and then just turn off at that bit.

I imagine hes talking about all the people they run into walking around PAX itself. I bet people say some real dumb stuff when they're "alone" with the guys.

I'm sure they enjoy going to PAX, but yeah, I don't think the content out of it is ever very good. The interviews aren't great and neither is the panel really.

It ain't even just the questions (which really aren't that bad), just always ends up being the same thing of the "oh we didn't prepare anything!" joke, then Jeff proceeds to carry the show for the next hour.

Either earlier this year or late last year, Jeff said he thinks it's about time they changed it up at PAX. Totally agree, hopefully we see something a bit different this year.

I think Jeff carrying the show is worth it, like the 40 cents story.
 
Does he say the game is better? I've already sat through one Brad/Patrick QL for the day.

He has a theory that the comic doesn't have strong characters and as a result it peters out as opposed to the telltale game which is all about strong characters. Granted, he only read the first anthology of the comic so take that "theory" with a grain of salt.
 
I’d give Paklepkk (Say it like a Klangon from "Star Tracks"! It's fun!) the benefit of the doubt over his dismissal of “The Strolling Deceased” comical book series. To be perfectly sensual, the first story arc contains: hammy redneck dialog; stilted pacing; and it’s in BLACK & WHITE.

Sorry for being a perfectly constructed human bean, but I see in color, Ricardo Klarkman! Until the day comes when that dastardly brown mouse, Gerald, tricks me into stepping on the “camouflaged” rake in the back yard, thus scrambling my cones and rods into a grayscale nightmare… I’d just rather not think about it.

Brrr!

Anyway, if Paklepkkk chooses to carry on with the comical book series, he’ll find that it VASTLY improves as the story arcs expand and contract, in a warm, hypnotizing rhythm. The dialog becomes sharper and well-honed… and the dismemberments! Truly exquisite!

Sometimes I don’t want to leave “The Strolling Deceased”’s fantasy land of well-adjusted ghouls trying to make it in a land overrun by whiny, uppity humans. Never… want… to… lea--

Hold on. I just went into the wrong house, again. I’ve got to go.

i found the comics to have some REALLY poor moments. Just like the tv series
 
I'm inching closer to the realisation that frostyxz in fact is the repressed personality of a schizophrenic person and I'm pretty sure the way that story ends is that the main character of the story being told is the main personality.
 
It goes game > comic >>>> TV show, right?
Personally, I lean comic >> game >>>>>>>> TV show

Although I stopped reading the comic shortly after
Carl took the lead
or something. Haven't read in years. But I read a whole lot and what I read was still the best that property has produced. In my opinion, o'course.

Around when I quit I remember him being the cover of an issue. I quit around the time
Rick and Carl were on their own, Rick was going crazy, and Carl started to be a larger focus of the story
.
Also, telephones
.

I should really pick it back up.

It doesnt last very long, I suppose. That was around 50+ issues ago.

You definitely should.
 
Is anyone going to the Cards Against Humanity panel here? I'm assuming there will be some news of the Giant Bomb expansion. Would love some updates when/if it happens.
