Which do you do you recommend? Can I download?
Also there is day 2 recap and day 2 show Oo
I'd say listen to the podcast first before watching the videos but if not, the day 2 recap video shows the winner and game play of Brads favorite game of the year, he also has a video of his top 10 of the year. The article recap just lists them out with the runner ups
I listen to the podcast first and watch the videos. Read the OP, all the links are there in chronological order.
Next year's GOTY Theme should be WWF Warzone.
I want to see Brad do his best Ahmed Johnson impression.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'

And by "ridiculously valuable camera" you mean "a consumer-grade camera I bought with credit card reward points like four years ago."

But it got your mojo which made it more valuable.

If by mojo you mean "footage of me blowing up shit in my backyard" then you are 100% CORRECT MY FRIEND.
Crap, I should get that camera back.

Hey man we have an economic crisis on our hands
. We can't afford all these Skylander packages (Drobot 4 life!) and expensive consumer grade cameras.That sounds like premium content to me!

That is the MOST mojo possible.
I will not be satisfied until Whiskey Media ranks the superhunks!

Kinda looks like Anders Behring Breivik there. WEIRD.
Now that you say it... D:
Wow, was this on the podcast? I was just about to go listen to it. Now I won't. Was it Brad?

They've pretty much been spoiling every game they talk about. They did the same thing last year. They need to be able to freely talk about everything in these games if they want to suss out the best game of the year.
I'm an expert
Formerly worldrevolution. The only reason I am nice to anyone else is to avoid being banned.
These discussions are always totally spoiler ridden and they give very fair warning.

About what time are the LA Noire spoilers?

Is there a time stamp for the day 2 podcast when they talk about "Best Use of a Licensed Song"?
Its about the 1hr30min mark, or 10 minutes left to go in the podcast. Its the last section of the podcast.
They warned about there being spoilers and it should be pretty clear that they will talk about everything. If you care about spoilers this is really not something you should be listening to...

So Jeff really does hate Dark Souls..
Yeah, it almost seemed like they went out of their way to spoil every game they talked about.
Definately hold off on listening if you haven't beaten the games they talk about yet.
Honestly Jeff should just leave it at "it's not my cup of tea". Saying it's a bad game is down right ridiculous.So Jeff really does hate Dark Souls..
Did you not listen to the podcast? They warned about spoilers up front. Same thing yesterday.
Please. They said at the start there would be spoilers and even if they didn't I don't see how you can listen to something like this and not expect any. Plus if you really cared you probably would have already played it now.

There should be a "Best Dark Souls" award where Matt Rorie and Kasavin just gush over it for a few hours.
Why do want to exclude Vinny from this?
What? The shooting in Saints Row 3 is fine. It probably even is the bes tin any of these open world games. It controls just like a third person shooter should. The weird ass laser thing in Shadows of the Damn just plain sucks.
I dunno, I enjoyed the shooting in SR3 and did have issues with Shadows of the Damned's gameplay. *shrugs*

True, he can join in too for stories about how it nearly ended his marriage.
he didn't like Demon's either so not too suprised.So Jeff really does hate Dark Souls..
I just shake my head when people call Shadows of the Damned's gameplay mediocre, all the while praising games like Gears. Of course they are all just opinions, but I find the Gears games to have far less satisfying gameplay and shooting mechanics.
Oh I will talk shit about the gameplay in any Suda game all day long if you let me. Sorry but the crazy doesn't make up for mediocre at best gameplay.
And at the same time it shows why being so spoiler sensitive is dumb. All that did is made me want to play the game.
I had to fast forward that shit. they didn't wanna spoil SotD but Driver SF was ok?

I got SotD for Christmas so I don't know what to believe now!
The QL sold me on the character and attitude of the game, basically. The gunplay didn't look especially hot, and the mechanic of clearing the darkness out of every area sounds like it could get seriously tedious. It's a game I wanted because it seemed like the other elements of the game could transcend that.
