Yep thats what it is.

Didn't know we were making a new topic every time we find a video with one of the crew in it.

Since thats what we apparently do, might I recommend Giantbomb.com.

ha maybe spam but it's pretty awesome spam.

Guys, I can understand your reasoning for wanting to uphold the rules, but please be nicer about it in the future. There is no need to be rude like this, especially when a person has 13 posts.

Nice job making a new guy feel welcome to the site.

#13 Posted by guiseppe (2712 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

Ahh, the good old days.

#14 Posted by VilhelmNielsen (1703 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

Totally remember this. Those were the days, thanks for the nostalgia.

Never compromise. Not even in the face of Armageddon.

Nah, I'm kidding, I've just been waiting for a reason to use that line. This is an awesome video.

I'm imagining Jeff and the rest of the guys seeing this and appreciating it a whole lot more than what some consider YouTube spam.

#18 Posted by c1337us (5751 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

I remember that when it happened... ah the good ol' days of Gamespot.

#19 Edited by SteveV (182 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

The Gamespot days were completely awesome.

Brad Shoemaker will show up to your house & destroy you with his Freebird skills only to disappear into the night.

#21 Edited by S0ndor (2708 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

Thanks for posting, twas a cool vid.

Maybe some of the forum rule natzees could ease up a bit. IMO that's just not what the Giantbomb community is about.

#22 Posted by Yummylee (18153 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

I missed sooo much from the gamespot days, truthfully the only content i watched there were the video reviews when I was a member.

#23 Posted by ViciousAnchovy (591 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

The only complaint I have with this video is that it's not Brad playing Free Bird on a real guitar and singing.

#24 Posted by scarace360 (4828 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

i remember this it was fucking awesome back then.

#25 Posted by najibu (54 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

Well put.

Really tired of the forum "hall monitors" playing moderator every time somebody posts a video. Give the guy a break, it's a pretty awesome video.

#27 Posted by Agent47CSim2 (1083 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

I was hoping Brad would be singing and playing a real guitar, but oh well that was an awesome video.

#28 Posted by ViciousReiven (746 posts) - 3 years, 2 months ago

Videos like this actually have fairly decent conversations around them, not like random crap, so it's somewhat acceptable, however there should be a repository for these, a generalized bombcast video topic.

Man i remember this, good good times

#30 Posted by Organicalistic_ (2954 posts) - 3 years, 1 month ago
