Supplemental Giant Bomb Videos - General Discussion

#1 Posted by JukeBoxJosh (30 posts) - 3 months, 25 days ago

I'm just looking for off-site videos that aren't archived on the site, and if they can be downloaded that would be even better! Livestreams, videos of them on other sites, whatever. I'm just looking for more! I feel like there are lots of videos and just general supplemental materials referenced, and as someone who's relatively new to the site and it's history I just don't know where to get it or even search. I guess give me your Essential, Off-Site Giant Bomb. Or something.

@Video_Game_King: Oh God why did you have to remind me of "bowl cut Brad" It's almost as bad as bleach blonde Jeff and Ryan. Man those were dark times!

EDIT: While technically not offsite theres the Arrow Point Down podcast that was the predecessor to the Bombcast only lasted a few episodes before it became the Giant Bombcast but if you haven't check them out I'd highly recommend them its way back in the Giant Bombcast page with the very first ones though may be easier to navigate to them with itunes though if that's your thing.

@Video_Game_King: Those are incredible, thanks for sharing! Brad couldn't be any less excited to be talking about that. And Ryan sounds so strange...

@Khemitude: Bleach Blonde Ryan doesn't even look like Ryan! What is this?!

@Icicle7x3 That's pretty much exactly what I'm looking for! Thank you!

I know Jeff and Alex played a bunch of Mario galaxy back in the day. It's on YouTube and is half decent.

Christ yeah I'll see if I can find it watched it somewhat recently for the first time!

EDIT:Here we are http://uk.gamespot.com/super-mario-galaxy/videos/super-mario-galaxy-live-gameplay-marathon-u-part-1-of-12-6182764/

EDIT2: Also If you haven't already check out the Skyrim marathon by Greg Kasavin its on Giantbomb. Also the Oblivion one on gamespot is good too! though If I remember thats just a highlights reel type thing but its still pretty good.

If this post proves anything, it's that leaving GameSpot has a vague, unknowable connection to exponential increases in sartorial awareness.

Part of this appears in Indie Game: The Movie, along with the Quick Look of Super Meat Boy.

@Khemitude: I have checked out the marathons. I did them as warm up to see if I could watch an Endurance Run, those were great.

@scalpel: Was there any story to that or did he just fall? I remember zoning out for just a second, hearing him fall, then kinda worrying for his safety.

@cthomer5000: Neat! I came into Giant Bomb a good while after Whiskey Media and I don't have any connection to that "era," but it's neat to see Happy Hours and just content with that whole group. Was Lemon Lens a big thing?

@scalpel: Hahaha

#15 Posted by Khemitude (210 posts) - 3 months, 24 days ago

@JukeBoxJosh: Nah lemon lens wasn't really a big thing just something one of the interns would produce on the side and stick up on the youtube channel. Was neat but never a proper feature like quick looks or happy hour.

I have finally found the video that started this whole quest to find videos off-site! Who knew it would be as easy as searching for pancakes in the Giant Bomb search bar? And, while not off site, Welcome To The Aftermath and Let's Pull These Walls Down seem pretty essential to someone who likes seeing behind-the-scenes videos and to someone who joined after CBSi and has no real ties to or memories of pre-CBSi. Going down the behind-the-scenes route, the recent How to Make a TNT is incredible and I hope we get more videos like that.
