They still haven't figured that out? Jesus, talk about low priority.

Does anyone anywhere do Vita videos?

...if you want to bitch about that bitch at Sony... It's them who don't make vita capture kit available to journalists... It's not like GB are sitting on their hands hoping the thing will fix itself.

Nobody has access to Vita capture kits.

Jeff doesn't want to do over the shoulder videos and would prefer video out, which is only on Vita debug kits. They've asked Sony before, but no go.

The "they" was all encompassing.

I still think they should do over-the-shoulder vids for the big things. LBP, Gravity Rush, AC Liberation. Yes, Sony has fucked this up, but that's no excuse for ignoring the device completely, imo.

However, I also wonder if maybe there is a way to crack that thing open and MAKE a solution? I only bring this up because it would make for a great Vinny and Drew member video (featuring Will Smith).

It's not that they haven't figured it out or that it's a low priority (though I wouldn't blame them if it was), it's that there's no way to do it without just awkwardly pointing a camera at the screen like they did at the system's launch, which is just not a good solution. I think it's perfectly understandable that they're not doing Vita quick looks until Sony provide some sort of capture solution.

Brad mentioned on GAF the other day that it's definitely a point of frustration for them, and Jeff has definitely complained about it multiple times.
 
Sure wish they could do Vita QL's as well. Don't know why Sony is so stingy with journalists getting the necessary equipment to be able to capture video.

I think the reason is a poor one. Jeff doesn't like how it looks? Imagine if they decided not to cover games Jeff didn't like too. They're meant to be providing consumer advice on games.

Hi, you mustn't have met my friend Giant Bomb. StuBurns, Giant Bomb, Giant Bomb, StuBurns. :P

(I kid, particularly considering they've been much more open to covering stuff outside of their interests over the past couple of years, I just couldn't let that one slip by)

Sounds like a reasonable progression of ideas there. Also I believe not covering games they don't care about is one of the tenets of the site.
 
I sent them such an amazing question via email this week that they're likely taking another 2 hours just to answer it. We can give them time.

Jeff via twitter 30 minutes ago:

"Crazy day. Podcast is recorded but we have to drive home. It'll get posted once we commute! "

so 45min-1 hour drive then computer magic then podcast
 
Once again, I've prevented myself from getting some exercise done at a reasonable time by waiting for the Bombcast. It's really a central part of my Tuesdays.

Haha, I went through some similar mental excuse making regarding house and yard work; 'yeah I'll do the whipper snipping when I've got a podcast to listen to' and 'I'll knock over the washing up once the podcast is ready'.

Dammit GB, my yard and kitchen are a mess because of you.

Brad looks like there's someone off screen holding a gun on him. It's crazy to see how much less intimidated they've all become of the camera.

Yeah, he seems a lot more comfortable onscreen nowadays.

Looks like I'll be grabbing the podcast tomorrow. I jumped in here to see if it was up. No big deal, it'll make mowing the lawn tomorrow easier.
