Sunday Bomb Drop?

SuperMooseman gives us the scoop on the community happenings this week. On a Sunday no less.

Editor's Note: we're moving the bomb drop to Sunday to fill in our weekend schedule a bit. Thanks to SuperMooseman for putting this week's edition together!

Welcome back to the Friday Bomb Drop (now with added Sunday), this time written lovingly by SuperMooseman. Don't forget to check out this forum thread if you are interested in mashing away at the keyboard to produce one yourself. Although game releases have not taken full swing yet, the Giant Bomb team put out three great reviews, produced a podcast in their new spaceship recording room and still managed to put out some new video content.

"But SuperMooseman," I hear you cry into the abyss of your computer screen "surely the community is still a threat?". I invite you to light the log fire, wrap up warm and grab a Fanta Fruit Twist as you read over the following list which maybe - just maybe - proves how wrong you are.

According to fictional quotes, the Community is Still a Threat

  • If you're looking to compete in cleverly named Smash Bros. tournaments, Endogene has your back covered with his second Bomb-Omb championship.
  • Bomb Should Have a Face podcast features some very special guests to reveal exclusive information about some new updates coming to a certain website near you soon.
  • ...and then Sweep provides you with the screenshots to prove it.
  • The community is in hot debate about what the up-coming Giant Bomb achievement/trophy/Moosemedals should be called.
  • Cheeky boy Bodega tells us how Pokemon is perhaps the most important RPG of all time.
  • If you don't have a PS3 to play the Giant Bomb-themed LBP level that Shadow made, then check mubress' quality videos of it instead.
  • Are you a sinner or a saint? Let dankempster tell all on two games he's being playing recently.
  • Fallout 3 was recently upgraded with some DLC, and so RelentlessKnight gives his view on it.
  • StaticFalconar hands out some juicy generic fighting game tips in his new guide.
  • Oh, and the community thread has had a make-over. It's got nothing on this news post. Right?
