Not long enough lol; listen to it in one day at work. Actually feel its perfect for timing and junk, really wish though the guys played older games from time to time with the what are you playing bit guess being a reviewer you gotta go with the new.

Please don't listen to this post GB team. While I appreciate everyone should have an opinion on the site I'm perfectly happy with the 2 hour-ish podcasts and don't want to see them any shorter unless entirely neccessary (based on time constraints for recording etc).

Although it can be hard as hell to make it through the cast in a week, two hours is awesome because when you do have time to listen to it, there's a ton to listen to. My Zune always keeps three episodes (if they're unlistened to) ready too.

You're wrong, they should be longer. I enjoy listening to them ramble and go off about different things. If you don't like to hear them talk then why listen to them in the first place?

Long bombcasts always are better than short ones. Imo

"Really guys, from nearly two hours to two hours of podcast? There is just no way I can have the time to listen to everything in a week, even going to the gym and driving around...Maybe it works for a lot of people but for me it just feels stretched. An hour of podcast is fine, more is just the crew talking random which is probably fun for yo but for the average listener is boring. Is the truth, maybe you can agree or disagree. "


 

Blasphemy! How dare you question the Giant Bomb crew and their wisdom! Heretic!

But seriously, just try and fit it in as best you can

The reason I don't tune in is because I think it goes on for far too long.

I love the long length of the Bombcast.  I love to heard what they have to say about the current games, news, and the awesome new games out for DSi (sarcasm).

The length of the podcast is fine.  It might be cool to hear an unedited version every once in a while so it was longer and a little more random.

This is like saying "Grandma, this is really getting on my nerves, $200 is just TOO MUCH for my birthday. Stop right now".

When you made this thread did you really expect everyone to come and agree with you?... -_-

What is boring is a podcast that is strictly about videogames.  2 hours is fine, in fact I'm kind of dissapointed if its not two hours. lol

I usually listen to it when I'm playing videogames, either a racing game or a game like Empire Total War.

So long as it's entertaining, I don't mind the length.  Gives me something to listen to on my Shuffle at work.

It's not that long. The 1up guys often have podcasts that are 3 hours long!

A little extreme, but this guy's pretty much the right idea.

Shut your goddamn ass up, you overworking no fun having jerk of a human being. If you don't have 2 free hours in a week you should not play video games or post on message boards for that matter. Even a 5 hour podcast would not be enough to be justified as too long. Also wasn't there a policy that says that you can listen to radio from 6 to 11 at your workplace?

I love the length, I don't listen to it all in one sitting. I usually stretch it out over a full week if I'm busy.

dude shut up,  I work as a data encoder for the USPS the only thing keeping me from dying of boredom is podcasts.  I bearly have enough that entertain me to fill up my work time, and if you convince them to make the giantbombcast shorter I swear to fucking god I will find you and make you listen to the worst podcast on loop for 3 months straight.
