Congratulations to the people complaining about the only guy on staff who spoke up and said "yeah, sure, let's interview Swery while he's in town." You're all Grade A truth-tellers who totally get us as people, man.

Thank you, Jeff, although it really saddens me to see you having to step in people and shed that one iota of light onto the situation. I'm not even entirely sure where this firestorm comes from, I mean, do I think Patrick is funny all of the time? No. However that does not diminish the content that he produces. I don't always agree with him, but I shouldn't It what makes him a journalist and makes me a cautious informed reader. If I wanted a website that just regurgitated my every opinion, I'd lock myself in the basement and start filming.

Figured this would be longer than just 6 minutes.

@EOT: Nothing. He had to do with loving Deadly Premonition, and is a valued member of staff.

I have no idea what's going on in this comment thread, but I gotta say I'm happy you guys interviewed Swery. I would love to sit and talk story and game design with that guy.

Really cool feature. I've always been sorta interested in this game since Boston on TVGP had been talking about it. I'm definitely going to pick it up.

Agreed! And he is an adorable man, to boot! I just want to give him a big ol' hug.

Spoilers: Patrick calls him an asshole

HAhahah, I dont think no one will ever let him live down for that terribly awkward attempt at humor. Unfortunately first impressions are a doozy. Im sure Paddys a great guy, but he does rub some people the wrong way, and there's just nothing anyone can do about that.

Man... Fuck Ryan!

SWERY is the most adorable man I have ever seen in my life.

Also, thanks to bunch of whiny wankers in the comments, I feel compelled to impart this thought yet again:

The other dudes hired Patrick, they like him, they obviously think he fits with what Giant Bomb is all about. That means if you don't like him, you ain't as Giant Bomb as you'd like to think you are.

Word

Can't you guys find some way to replace Patrick with Swery?

Nice! PR make a good interview team. Get it? PR?

Aaaanyways! I love SWERY. It seems he is just made of sincerity. And coolness.

Giantbomb has done a great job getting this Interview, fine work lads.

(Yes I am wearing a generals uniform and smoking a pipe while writing this, however the uniform has no pants and the pipe is full of bubble bath)

Swery gives me motivation to do things in life.
