How do you guys consume your weekly helping of Bombcast? I try to drag it out till the next one is almost out.
On that note, what other podcasts do you guys recommend that are similar to the Bombcast?
I listen to the bombcast when i am in the library. It is distracting though.

I listen to it on my drive to and from my university campus on week days. The drive is about 20 minutes, so the podcast usually lasts me until the following Monday, give or take.
He's only played a couple hours. Brad agrees it's a bit slower the first couple hours before you unlock more mobility options.
yeah i disagree, i think even the beginning of the game --all ive played too-- is really refreshing
it was redeemed when he rallied against the shipping of unfinished games.
the ship now, patch later stuff is a really bothersome trend, regardless of how many people are affected by it, it creates a shitty precedent.

I have a huge list of podcasts I listen to, because I can listen to my headphones for 8 hours a day at work and need something to make the day more enjoyable. Bombcast and 8-4 Play are the only gaming ones I listen to though.
GMR was Electronics Boutique. I remember liking the Game Geezer editorials the best, which turns out were written by Jeff Green!
noice!

Now that's a bombcast!

A lot on the Maximum Fun network are great. Oh No Ross and Carrie, My Brother My Brother and Me, and Saw Bones in particular are my favorites, but there's quite a few. Radiolab and 99% Invisible for interesting tidbits about the world, and This American Life continues to be a great general interest show.

They're wrong about the tournament standard console, they have it flipped around. It started off PS3 and is now Xbox 360. This year was the first EVO to use Xbox.

Ads are getting a bit much but they are better then the souless 5 minutes of shilling you see in other podcasts. I am thinking about moving over the the ad only feed soon though.
Had about a Jeff Supercard update?
How many Alberto Del Rio cards does he have now?
And is Del Rio still not with the company?

I will never understand how Jeff thinks the humor in Borderlands 1 is any different than the humor in Borderlands 2. It's like the exact same type of jokes with different characters. It's just like the Saint's Row and Sunset thing. Likeis no different than some of the humor he's complained about in Sunset Overdrive.it's funny because it's Burt Reynolds
I don't think all of Saints Row is particularly funny (some works, some doesn't) but Sunset Overdrive's humor is completely different. Saints Row's humor is referential, but often in esoteric ways that underpin the joke rather than carry it entirely. The wrestling storyline is probably the best example of this - plenty of straightforward jokes that you don't need to be a wrestling fan to appreciate, but a lot of stuff that's also funnier if you are. Plus, the
Burt Reynolds
Sunset Overdrive's joke, most of the time, is that the characters are saying or talking about things you like and remember, often just namedropping things and leaving it at that. It's much more obnoxious, in my opinion.
And Borderlands 2 is way more in your face than 1, not that either of them are particularly genius (for the record I actually think Handsome Jack is great, but I despised a lot of the other joke characters like Torgue and Tiny Tina).

Jeff "Quartermann" Gerstmann!
Brad's went back to Dota 2. He's home.
Jason's forcing himself into the lineup to get that J-gaming goodness we need.
Also, Brad: get back on that LoG2. It's gooooooooooooooood.

Anyone listen to DLC?
Holy crap. Their ads are 3+ minutes and they're so boring. It's literally just 2N1T saying how awesome a service is.
god yes. I guess Jeff is a good salesman because he's so... earnest, but it is terrible to listen to every week.
are there any links to the PT part of Jason's stream?

So how many games this week will Jeff either dislike or be bored off?
I'm going for 3!
Drink everytime jeff doesn't like something.

Nah, salesmanship is about keeping attention. On Giantbomb they have my curiosity and then they demand my attention!

Quartermann was the "rumors guy" in EGM magazine back in the day. People thought it was one person, but it was just kind of a catchall name for the EGM editors to dump rumors into without being held accountable.

I like that whoever wrote in the email about the Witcher stuff clearly listens to the QI podcast. Clearly a huge overlap in those two audiences.
Also welcome back Drew!
