So, Giantbomb's video have always been great, but they seemed to have just been uploaded every now and then, without any real structure.
I mean, sure, you have structure with events like PAX and TGS, but it never seemed that way on a weekly basis.
Now, with the "This Week in Videos" and "I Love Mondays" updates, I really feel like Giantbomb is becoming a bit more structured, and the question of the week idea is great, and makes the whole thing more interactive.
Not to mention the Buck-Thirty Cam videos, which are also great.
I definitely think the video portion of the site has went from "excellent" to "SUPER MONDO COOL OF AWESOMENESS TO THE MAX!"
who else thinks so?
Who else loves all this new video stuff?
"Quick Looks are one of the best things around at the moment."Indeed I love seeing the Quick Look videos and the editing by Vinny is spot on. Hopefully the "I love Mondays" will become a regular thing every week to look forward too. Video is one of the things GiantBomb does really really well when its covering video games news, so the more the better in my opinion.
Yeah, I am really liking revamping of the videos portion of the site. I think the Question of the Week is a neat idea and gets people more involved with the site(like that was lacking already :P).
Yeah this is definitely the best direction for GiantBomb's editorial. They are really starting to set themselves apart from the crowd now and that's great. If you actually go on other forums, whenever a GiantBomb video of a game is embedded or something you get a string of positive comments ("<3 GiantBomb", etc.) videos in the responses.
I'd still like to see some more "Off Topic" style "around the office" type things like they did with "How To Build A Bomb" (obviously these should be less frequent and prominent) but aside from that I'm sure they totally have their work cut out as it is.
Love the Quick Looks and this new Monday thing.
"I want to be able to upload my own videos and watch videos that other users have uploaded.I don't think they have the server capacity for that yet. :P
Even if it was a 5 video maximum for each user, it would be neat to have."

I love watching quick looks when I'm sitting around doing nothing but watching t.v. It's really the greatest thing ever.
