We, the people and community of Giant Bomb will stand by Jeff 'The Conductor' Gerstmann and all of his endeavors. We will not give up. We will not surrender. FOR FREEDOM, FOR NINTENDOWNLOAD!
" So my options are either "No" or "Put them back in the bombcast" Righto, I win either way "
I feel the poll covers every realistic possibility. I mean... despite my desire to have them re-animate the corpse of Jim Varney and rework it as "Hey Vern, It's the Nintendownload Xpress" it's just not feasible.
Even though im extremely happy that the Nintendo downloads section lives on through Nintendownload X-Press, it's not exacly the same as it was when it was in the bombcast, mostly because you could actually hear Ryan Davis slowly dying on the inside.
I think shutting it down is the last thing Ryan would want if it means the segment comes back to the regular bombcast.
Personally, I think it's a waste of time. If Jeff wants to do it separately, the people who want it can listen to that and the people like myself who don't, can ignore it. It's kind of the best possible solution at the moment. I actually did listen to new one because of the promise of guests and that whole skit of them being tricked in to being on the nintendownload express was great, but then the parts after that did cement my belief that I don't want that section in the bombcast.
Hell to the no. Why would anyone want the train to stop rolling now? But some time soon, I would like to see the guys actually stick around for a whole episode. 30 mins is too long for Jeff to be alone with WiiWare.
That was the best podcast ever recorded. I say cut it short, while he's ahead. It will be remembered as a hilarious failed schism. I don't see Jeff making more than one more, either way.
