Coming September 9: The Big Live Live Show: Live!

We're forming like Voltron to bring you an all-day extravaganza.

        

No Caption Provided
Hey, what are you doing on September 9? Actually, wait, don't answer. I don't care what the answer is--just cancel whatever it is. Because what you should be doing on September 9 is setting up your largest computer monitoring monitor and aiming a web browser squarely at us, because at 10AM Pacific Daylight Time, we're kicking off an all-day broadcast that's going to start down here in the basement and, by the end of the day, explode into a full-on street party.

The Sites de Whiskey Grande (that's us, Tested, Screened, and Comic Vine, I think) will be coming together to present something like eight hours of delirious action, featuring game demos, interviews, something that closely resembles a world premiere, some sort of dance-off, footage of what goes on in our underground bar, the ability to ask us questions, some sort of sandwich-related fiasco, and much, much more!

(Actually, I should state that we might not have a sandwich-related fiasco, and that just about all of the above is subject to change. It's a live demo, folks.)

But I can 100-percent for-sure guarantee that this will be when you'll hear the super-specifics about our upcoming network-wide membership program, which will let you sign up for hot-ass services like higher-quality videos, a mobile-optimized version of the site, and... well, actually, how about I just show you the mobile-optimized version of the site, courtesy of this video shot by Mike Horn and Dave Snider earlier today... cool? 

  
  
 
You know, Dave's been posting a bit more about the upcoming paid membership plan over on his blog, so you might want to check that out for a sneak peek at what's coming your way. Otherwise, I'm going to get back to haranguing guests to make sure they're actually going to show up, and we'll see you on September 9!

I wondering this as well. I've always wondered what separates them, as they're the only site not featured at the bottom of the page out of the four fellow WM sites. "
It's my understanding that there are no longer any staff working specifically for Anime vice and it is all community run. Well that was what i last heard, I'm not sure if that has changed recently or not. "
Anime Vice doesn't exist anymore. The staff at whiskey all hated anime so they never had any interest in working with John and Gia on the site when they where there. Once they left though the site became a ghost town. They still have some guys writing stupid articles on there, but it's nothing of note. Makes me sad too. AV had one of the best communities and the Staff on the site was always interacting with the community and talking with us and doing things with us, while places like GB you never hear from the guys. Or at least I have never seen them. I think I saw Ryan and Vinny reply to something once, but that's it. Tested and screened are a bit better at actually interacting with the community regularly, but GB I have never seen do it.
 
There was a real sense of community over at Anime Vice, and it makes me sad to know that it's been destroyed.

This is going to be awesome!
 
Also, I remember paying $1.99 for a giantbomb app... so it kind of sucks to see this new paid mobile site coming out >_>" Especially since that app was DOA. 
 
Still, it looks good. I didn't see any forums though, which is kind of sad.

That's because Anime Vice has no editors, at least not at the Whiskey office. "
Whiskey should fly Yui in from Japan to say "hi" and represent.

I'll be in Canada at that point so the one time the PST works to my advantage is when I'm not in GMT to exploit it. I'll try my best to be there though. I <3 Whiskey Media.

Hopefully this'll be archived, 'cause I work until 1 and am going through a serious catastrophe in my life right now.  8 hours of humor/general awesomeness sounds totally great.

Just curious if Anime Vice is still a Whiskey Media thing, since you guys neglected to mention it in the post, heh.  My apologies if this has already been adressed.
