Man i love johnny V - no homo. Also really great to hear from Adam boyes and Mike Bilder too. This was the best bombcast of the week and is worth a spot in the hall of golden bombcasts.
" Great, people outside the US gets screwed by Ustream again. Is there seriously no alternative service that can actually keep all the video recorded? "
shame it messed up - seems if there is a break in the streaming it starts again recording over what was streamed before - but it is only a round table, you will lose very little listening to the audio only for the first hour.
Not digging the volume differences. It's hard to hear some stuff and the next moment they burst out in laughter. I gets a little annoying to be honest. Will turn to the podcast version now.
@Lethkhar: I think Jeff has a pretty good point, especially considering the way Nintendo announced this game, with that stupid "focus group" video of kids talking about how much they love Goldeneye. No matter how much nostalgia you have for that game, shooters have gotten better since then, and this is not the revelation it once was.
Plus, it's not made by the same people, Wii controls for FPS games are janky as hell, and putting a Daniel Craig model in this game is fucking retarded.
I get that people who loved that game over 10 years ago are kind of jazzed about this, but maybe they should instead put their energy into making a new Bond game that people can stand, with the same core elements that people loved about Goldeneye, instead of another goddamn rehash (which seems to be what Nintendo excels at).
" I'm out of the country right now and my internet is too crappy to be able to stream any of these broadcasts live :(. I have to resort to listening to the audio-only podcast. Woe is me. "
Probably the only thing worth seeing is John Vignocchi's getting-machine-gunned emote, but it's REALLY worth seeing. Damn 3 seconds had me in stiches. "
What parts were worth watching? "
1:02:20 is around when the machine-gunned story starts.
I tried to stay awake through the entire thing last night but I could not last. I woke up many times and thought "Wow they're still at it? Did I set it to repeat somehow?"

I agree with everything you said here - I had actually posted many of these points elsewhere throughout when these announcements were made. Great post.
