So I was thinking that maybe the staff's idea of whoring their dignity out to the internet is perhaps not the best way to proceed with this QoTW nonsense. There must be better ways of selling Giant Bombs to all the kids back home. Here are some:
 

  • Re-enact your favourite Persona 4 moment.
  • Spin around in circles till you pass out.
  • Kill something.
 etc...
 
I appreciate it's possible to incorporate all three of these ideas in a single video.
Anyone else got any ideas?

Or maybe ask a serious question that is relevant to today's video game landscape. If the user wants to turn it into something ridiculous, then so be it. If not, then maybe there will actually be some meat to the QOTW next time.

Hmmm, this is gonna be challenging. Hold on!
 
Do you have a recurring character you use in certain games? Act them out for us.

I'm surprised you don't watch it Claude, I'd have thought you had a lot of free time in between Wii releases. 

(oh snap)

@Metal_Gear_Sunny: Dude, I know that sounds funny on paper, but whenever I've watched videos of people raging at games in the past it just looks... Sad.

I have plenty of Wii games to play. Hell, I can't afford any new releases anymore. It fucking sucks, like you know, big time.

Most people would probably fake getting angry though and try to be funny. Even so, it isn't really that entertaining to hear/watch people get angry in my opinion.

What games do you own that you still havent completed?

The reason Im thinking of this question is that I recently when through my collection and marked the games that I want to get back to and complete (theres also a bunch I havent finished but dont really want to). From my chair I can visable see at least 150 games (theres more in box's or under my PC desk etc.) and Ive marked to go back to about 50 that I really want to go back to, and theres more that I havent finished but Im not in the mood to go back to. Though it should be noted that until recently most of my games I got preowned  in the sub-£10 range and I mainly asked for games as gifts (though the games ive looked at are only from Sixth and Seventh Gen of consoles)

I think it might be interested if theres anyone else in the same camp as me or do most people at Giant Bomb get one game and finish it before getting another.

I do agree that watching the staff of Giantbomb sing was a bit off-putting, but it was really popular, 250 comments is way more comments than any of the recent QTOW.  
As a solution to make QOTW more interesting, I think that the staff should be more involved in QTOW. Maby like tell the users to ask personal gaming question to specific staff member. Kinda like E-mails on the Bombcast, but more personal.
Maby like asking Ryan why he has some weird love for No One Can Stop Mr. Domino?

I think its fine, but they need to start actually asking questions. Maybe 'Would you kindly film some background images for us to sing in front of?'
