#53 Posted by DanielJW (4914 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Easily one of my favourite things on this site.

Jeff, just letting you know that I bought Zenonia yesterday due to your reading of it awhile back. 
 
As long as you make games SOUND interesting, I'm in. Forever.

Ryan needs to get in here and shut this shit down.

#62 Posted by SinGulaR (2161 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

This is awesome... I laughed so hard. Keep on the fight Jeff :D
#63 Posted by plannine42 (10 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Best Half-Hour of Ever.

#64 Posted by Afroman269 (7388 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

So......so if we kill Ryan......no one will be able to stop this amazingness?!

#65 Posted by Zamir (487 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

30 minutes!!! oh man, my initial joke about how this podcast is going to balloon to 2 hours and replace the bombcast and then WiiWare/DSiWare portion would get cut, looks like it's coming even quicker than i thought

#66 Posted by Posharoo (17 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

This is freaking hilarious.  I can't tell if Vinny and Brad know Jeff is screwing around, or if he actually fooled them.  Either way,  I just laughed several of my asses off.

#67 Posted by HibikiRush (120 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Yes!  The coming of a new era!  The new podcast is here.

#68 Posted by Bass (684 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

haha he tricked them so good

#69 Posted by Eribuster (426 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Awesome! I hope you get some WiiWare and DSiWare developer interviews in to the podcast some day. Some comments from playing the games would be welcome too! I would like to hear what you guys think of Fluidity.

NOTHING STOPS THE NINTENDOWNLOAD X-PRESS.

#74 Posted by Demoskinos (8977 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

I love how he tricks Brad and Vinny.   This is the best thing ever.   Jeff Gerstmann is a legend of the games press industry. 

#75 Posted by NeoGamer (158 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

LOL I really think Vinny had no clue of what the hell was going on when they started. Hilarious!

#76 Posted by NowSayPillow (146 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Killing myself laughing...

#77 Posted by mythus (94 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

wait..... is this the next new endurance run?!

#78 Posted by Blair (2368 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Ryan's absence is just the kind of palpable passive aggression that makes this podcast THAT much better.  Big ups, Jeff.

#79 Posted by Claude (15850 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

#80 Edited by Brackynews (3318 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

$60 well spent. The podcast split is real, and it is delicious.
Also, more WiiWare games need Squarey65.

I actually was laughing out loud at that one at 12:17 am while everyone is asleep.  I love you Jeff!
#82 Posted by Afroman269 (7388 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Holy shit, Jeff outdid himself, just finished listening, tricking Brad and Vinny was pure gold. So this Kid Icarus.....no wait...how about that e-shop.

NICE, DOWNLOADAN. RYAN DAVIS' GONNA RYAN DAVIS.
 
Thought I saw a story about this last week then couldn't find it cos I fail at the internets. Thanks for the linkback.

#88 Posted by NickLott (775 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

This is a troll on Ryan akin to only the Tab troll from the Sarah Silverman show. Bravo.

#89 Posted by yoshimitz707 (2374 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

YES!

It's the only way I can hit up that kind of rush I get from podcasts!!  And I think Jeff's really rocks it.
 
(great reference dude) 
 
Also this further reaffirms why we should all love Mondays.

Jeff is an internet hero.

#92 Posted by drowsap (668 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

#93 Posted by B_Philip (8 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Fish 'em all, let god sort them out.

Awesomeness all around.

#94 Posted by ddaydj (9 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

i lol'd. might i suggest next week you tie a random whiskey media member to a chair and make them listen to your dramatic of the week's releases. live stream would welcome this format~

#95 Posted by ALavaPenguin (140 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

thIS IS THE BEST podcast I have EVER heard beats out that shotty production Ryan does

#96 Posted by TepidShark (928 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

Wow, just started it downloading & realized it is 30 min. Man, that's awesome!

#97 Posted by Banggoo (97 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

These are the Days of our Lives.

#98 Posted by shadyspace (457 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

lol listening to the intro with Vinny and Brad again it's obvious that they really didn't know what Jeff was doing. And that makes it even more awesome.

#99 Posted by CannonGoose (349 posts) - 2 years, 3 months ago

I've added that RSS feed link to iTunes and these podcasts show up there, but I can't seem to get them onto my iPod. They just don't go on there with all the other ones when I sync it. Could one of you fine gents help me with this matter?
