I was checking the site periodically today and noticed how not many articles went up, and even less quicklooks. I figured that now that we're in december, not many games are coming out so, I guess that until january of next year, the only thing we can look forward on Giant bomb is the game of the year deliberations. :sigh: 
 
I can't wait until the next wave of AAA games early next year.

They can always do QUick looks for games they haven't got around to , DLC games, and even do a retro QL.

They spent an hour and a half in that video. I would call that proper, as a good deal of that was spent in menus, which from what I've heard, is how a lot of that game is spent.

Or they will do what they did last year and have QLs of their award winners.  
Or a bunch of podcasts containing all their deliberations.

I would love to see a few Quick Looks of some of the Paradox games (even though I have played them ad infinitum).

Isn't that "for now" and not "from now on" ? 
From now on makes it seem like they're going away forever o.O

Yeah, these weeks are always a little thin as far as Quick Looks and the like. But then you also get some goofy stuff as well, and of course the final week of the year is always epic. 
 
Hang in there, get some Christmas shopping done, and know the Bomb-moon will wise.

When I read the title of this thread, I assumed Vinny had died. 
Made it sound like their would be a lack of Quick Looks from now until forever.

Demo for Dead Space 2 and the Vietnam expansion for Bad Company 2 come out on the 21st. I imagine they'll get coverage, or at the very least Vietnam would, considering we've already had coverage of DS2.

They could just look into very, very crappy not-games.  Just look at that quick look for Storytime Adventures that happened shortly after Thanksgiving last year.

They can dive into older games, or go into the indie section and pop out 3-4 smaller ones a day. Steam has about 2-3 indie games going up almost every other day, so if they wanted to they could do a lot of stuff.
 
Plus I'm sure they will bring back TANG for when it get's real slow. Then before you know it it's next year and all the new year games are coming out.

Wrong sir. Rule #1 of Giant Bomb: When a good game isn't present, a game of equal or lesser value will present itself
 
Just because good games won't be coming out for a while, doesn't mean "games" won't be coming out.

Less quick looks but more GoTY deliberations from now until January doesn't sound like the end of the world to me. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy the quick looks, but I believe pretty much all the content the Giant Bomb staff put out is good content.

I think that the magic would be gone. There's no way that they could top the first.
 
But it would still be better than anything on TV.

I wish there was a current celebrity poker game because I'm pretty sure Brad Garett would be in it.

Early next year are some big hitters coming out. Dead Space 2, Killzone 3, LittleBigPlanet 2, MvC3.  
I'm sure they will come up with something to fill the gap between releases. They always do!

I'd love to see them pick some choice games from over the years and do some quicklooks of them. It would be neat to see some old games from dreamcast, (which they have done before), N64, Super Nintendo, NES, and other older consoles. Obviously it would be tougher to film, but I would appreciate maybe some real arcade quicklooks as it was never something I was ever very familiar with during my youth. But, whatever...I;m sure some games are coming out some where shortly for them to fill the time with.

No they are the Valve of racing games. 
There are not 75 GT games so they are not koei.
It took them 10 years to make an ok at best game, that is viewed as the 2nd comeing by crazy people.
That is more valve than anything.

Anyone else hoping for the new Neo Geo PS3 stuff QLs?  Plenty of Game Room ribs and "man, games were real back then" moments to be had.
