This is a much better use of TV time/TV-related topic of discussion. I'll get the ball rolling: how much of a shame is it that the director's cut of Cobra does not (reportedly) exist in any kind of releasable state?
Only one member of Giant Bomb has reported from inside the highly secretive North Korean regime.

Pizza scissors are real products nowadays. Let history remember its origins in Cobra.

They are really fun announcers actually. Ryu is playing like he was decent at SF2, but hadn't played since then and only read about SF4. I imagine playing against him is kind of like playing the AI set to low because how random it is.
Bullshit. My mom cut pizza with scissors way before Cobra.

The set looks nice, far better than what they had before.
I like the table setup though, doesn't matter what the set dressing is.
I hate it. Just reminds me of a news desk.

The studio looks very nice, but I think the format is still bad.
I think they could make it work. The E3 press conference videos are even less ideal seating and those are great.

Oh pish posh. It's funny. I mean, that Ryu player is having a blast!
Yeah, I mean, there's no Earnhardt Jr or Biden or nuffin'.
That's probably the least bad commentary I've ever heard for a fighting game tournament. Fairly limited experience, but the previous high bar was "That annoying guy behind you that you wish would shut up at the arcade" level.

I need a GBeast Danganronpa PC QL.
I mean, between actively rooting for one of the players and making fun of the other, they sounded like dicks. I loved that the Ryu guy won in the end.
IMO not really relative to how many people they have.

I don't know if I want another stealth series. Rather they did something different
Well, Metal Gear Scanlon has hardly been stealth based.

Wow what the hell happened with SFV? I didn't know the extent of it, which they're talking about on The Lobby.

That's probably actually an increase.
It seems clear GS has found value in the The Lobby by serving it up piecemeal to their general audience. Probably no real point comparing it to GB's live/longform metrics.

Maybe their stuff just doesn't do well live? It is earlier in the day, and Gamespot probably draws a different crowd.... idk. It's pretty depressing. I seriously think if Danny just did The Point and the stuff he does now at GS but on Giant Bomb he'd get a bigger audience. I'd be more likely to watch, for one thing.

Servers are super busted right now and combining that with a primarily online game makes it even worse.

I thought we might get an SFV live stream today.

Sounds like the issues with the game go well beyond the current server problems.

They could very easily do one assuming they don't try to play online.

It's a shame there wasn't one scheduled, I could have gone for another installment of last minute Snatcher

Not really unless you include the fact that the game is launching fairly barebones, but we've known that way before launch.

Ehhhhhhh Hitman and Metal Gear are so, so different, as are the Brad/Dan and Drew/Dan pairs. It'd be less teacher/student and more two equals trying to pick apart a puzzle (and tripping up a million times along the way).

Ah. See I haven't been following it at all, so learning how few game modes there are seemed crazy to me in a way reminiscent of Rock Band 4.
[EDIT] Wait, didn't Gamespot retract the parts of their story that said Gears 4 was coming to PC? And now Danny is saying it IS coming?

I'm going out on a limb and saying that we get our annual "E3 is only X months away" collective groans on the bombcast today (with E3 being only 4 months away.)

Yup. We've known for months that the game is barebones at launch with a continous release of free updates and characters earnable with in game currency, so its going for the Splatoon model with it's content. The problem is that when you combine it's barebones nature atm with the fact that half the features don't work with the server issues and it gets real bad in terms of what players can do right now.

A shame Burns Night was last month!
I always treated Hitman games as purely puzzle games, very different from MGS.
