They should just cancel this weeks bombcast and turn it into a clip show.

Hopefully this years goty talk wont devolve into one of them siding with a game hes never played, ending the discussion.
It will be Brad exhausting them with endless discussion until he wins, so it will be shitty either way.

Brad likes The Walking Dead and Journey, so I say let him talk as much as he wants.
Also, Patrick! Always with the interesting games.

Am I crazy that I feel like Sleeping dogs will appear in some GOTY something?

I could see it being Vinny's GOTY. Certainly sounds like the game he's had the most fun with so far this year.
That extra footage of him being a dick to everyone in Hong Kong after the QL's end was amazing.

Finally got around to the Doom 2 Breaking Bad and rather enjoyed it, but it troubles me that he says doom 2 was an exception to the rule and he wants things to be more confined. I'm sorry, but Doom 2 was way more entertaining then the lantern run or the mile high club. With the Doom 2 run there was always progression and always something new to watch. Those other two games were just the same 5 minute loop over and over again for 5 hours, and I don't know how anyone could stand to watch that for so long.
There's a reason Let's Plays are so popular, and I hope his next thing is a lot more like a difficult version of a let's play then those other things.

Yeah, I'm totally in line with this opinion. The doom breaking brads are the only ones I could watch all the way through. I had to skip through some of the other ones - especially the mile high club one. I just don't have a taste for watching the same short segment getting replayed over and over.
I loved that there was eventual progress with doom 2.

They should also get rid of TNT and just devote one hour a week to an Endurance Run.

Or, well, anything. TNT is very off-putting.

Ditch TNT, and replace it with an hour long Quicklook Throwback.
Also, when is the Jurassic Park and horror game premium segments starting?

Not gonna lie, I prefer watching them compete amongst themselves over random community folks as well. Just leave the community to the chat room.

Do people here care that they "play" with the Giantbomb guys? What about on their site/forum?
Problem with TNT with community is that they don't interact with the community at all, other players might as well be bots. Maybe instead of playing with random GB people, they should arrange to play with game devs or other industry members, turn on voice chat and talk casually with them.
Except these bots either want to be WAYYYYY too helpful or they become vengeful to an extreme, because they want to be the one to kill the GB member.
Must I remind people of the DayZ video, where that one guy specifically hunted them down using the stream to kill them, and then bragged about it?

To be fair, that seems to a common thing with people streaming DayZ.
And yeah, co-op TNT's / TNT's where they play against each other are way better than community TNT's.

The Doom 2 thing is really super fun to watch. Brad Muir was as hilarious as ever, and the couch crew after he left was great too.
Also it's always cool to see how well old Doom has held up in terms of basic shooting mechanics. So satisfying!

For those complaining that this has been a lackluster year for games, I bring back my post from earlier in the thread.

Who knows. It'd be good for the atmosphere for I hope he doesn't do it at like midnight or something. EST gets fucked enough as it is with Giant Bomb stuff.

This comment is really sad but true :
"The worst thing about RE6 is that people will now look back on 5 as if it was actually a good game."

Aw... the 2-star picture... ;___;
Somehow it seems sadder than the 1-star picture.

The Halo 2 stream is the truest example of this.
He also gave Lost Planet 2 that score if you want to see it in another review.

That was great Brad. Gonna go replay RE4.

Great review, but almost read like a 1 star review.

Brad is the best review for sure, he really dug into this game.
Riposte

Sounds like the game dug into him too.
"This game is like getting your dick bitten off by Satan, and I would rather gargle cyanide than be in the same building as it is being played"
2/5 Stars.
Brad, you clearly hate it, I don't understand why it's getting a 2. You give fives quite freely, if you hate this as much as you love Mark of the Ninja, it's a 0/5 surely.

That Idle Hands reference is REAL good.

It's playable, so a 0 is out of the question. 0s gets saved for broken shit, like that Steel Battalion game, or Sonic 06.
He hinted that there were a small handful of genuinely effective moments, but he never really referenced any examples. I suppose that he didn't want to put any spoilers in the review.
