This is why I didn't like it. If it were like this last week, I would get over it, but it's kind of shitty that last week's was free and this one isn't. I mean, it's not a big deal, I'll just watch 'em on justin.tv, but bleh.

Yeah, that's the thing, making this paid only is a completely silly move because if people have refused to pay for a subscription up to this point, we're probably fine with finding others ways to watch it if we really want to. (I'm in the process of direct downloading old archives of TNTs instead.) They don't gain anything by doing this except making people grumble and maybe one or two confused people subscribing that never heard of TNT before, though I seriously doubt it. Baffling.

I fucking love the HD archived TNTs. Wanted this to be a thing since they started.

A great perk. Keep being amazing, giant bombers

The Justin.tv archive version isn't bad. It's 720p and didn't take too long to download. I think if you used VLC you could actually watch it as it's downloading (assuming your download is fast enough).

Maybe on the site itself, but yo, every Giant Bomb related video ever recorded on Justin TV including all TNT's, the Big Live Live Show, and other random buffoonery. Also this does seem odd and I hope it changes, I don't know why they would have archived TNTs only for members.

Posted by indus - February 18, 2011 at 9:09 PM

To my dear unsubed duders,

GB has explained the reason that they haven't had TNT on the site before was because of the large bandwidth expense and size of these shows. This shit be costly son. ALAS! They are still accessible by j.tv if you desire to watch them there. With that reasoning, it makes sense to make it available to paid members to have access to this stuff via the site. Anywho, if you value the content so much, why not sub? Not only are you helping the community of sites become better but you get access to some pretty rad stuff. That is all.

Why are people complaining about something that was never archived on the site in the first place? Subbers pay to support the bandwidth cost of hosting these massive files. Makes sense to me.

And there's always justin.tv. It's all in HD there, too, and free!

Thankful for these being now posted on the site.

Why are you upset about this being a paid membership feature only? It can be easily found on Justin.TV. Plus as a paid member I feel it's a totally fair thing for Whiskey Media to do. Not like they are totally stopping you from watching the Justin.TV archived one.

Posted by TigerDX - February 19, 2011 at 5:19 AM

Imagine living in the UK, where you have to pay a TV license just to watch regular-ass TV. With that in mind, Giant Bomb subscriptions are a steal; better content and more of what I'm interested in.

Posted by gbrading - February 19, 2011 at 5:24 AM

Uh, excuse-me Giant Bomb? If I watched this live I didn't have to pay, but to watch it back at another time I do? I'm in the UK and so watching it live isn't the easiest option. I'm not really cool with that, to be honest. Either make it exclusive to subscribers (I wouldn't mind that!) or make it available for everyone. Don't make it half-and-half.
