"Oh right, on the cult suicide building jump. I've got some awesome footage of 5 of us all standing by the railing, peering out into the nothingness while systech and Rags (ithink) were holding hands... when all of a sudden a fucking helicopter drops on top of us."
The best moment of the Bombing Run.  Systech and I shared something . . . intangible.  I won't call it love.  But it was electric.

That damned helicopter. 

And yeah, Karmum.  GTA was a blast.  Half the time, I was just driving around, chatting with the d00dz.  Also, I will totally take credit for the Reservoir Dogs comment.

Last Week: Awkward Sandwich
This Week: Reservoir Bombs

Only time will tell what the new obscure joke will be!  Stay tuned!

I hope it was, I would have loved to be there. Was it a full house (16 people), or a few less?

I think we topped out at ten people.  It was a pretty solid connection throughout, though, which surprised me.  I hadn't done a game in GTA with that many people.

It was great fun.  What's fun about these Bombing Runs is that no one really cares about the game.  We spent maybe a half-hour trying to land on Liberty Tower with umpteen helicopters. 

It was amazing.

That Bombing Run was great. Destruction derbies ensued, and a very interesting from of "bullfighting."

No, but kind of. I had hosting connection issues and we could only get over ten or eleven people into the party. So some people couldn't get in, and to those people I apologize for the enormous inconvenience. Next time, I'll make sure I don't have my computer or any other connection hogging device on (besides the console, of course).

It sure as hell was.

I claim trademark on the Burning Ambulance of Doom brand.

Well, here it is! I apologize for the Rooftop jump being excluded, as my footage of it was terrible.

It's okay, the rooftop jump in general failed miserably.

Haha.  I love that Systech and I get the caption during the rooftop scene. 

Perfect music, by the way.  Maybe now, Systech will stop talking about Superbad.  :-p

My immaculate piloting skills are shown in the last few seconds.  God damn, I love the Bombing Run.

Yeah, I was going to put some sort of Reservoir dogs reference but decided to keep that on the inside. Anyway, you guys holding hands was more funny.

Also, I've kind of made a GiantBomb community Youtube channel. It would be sweet if we could get Bombing Run footage, some other community stuff, ya know, all that jazz. At the moment the account is pretty skeletal but it could be cool. Check it out!

I will probably stop, considering that Summer is practically over. It's a seasonal thing where I talk about specific movies or games. Fall is where I talk a lot about Fallout.

Any plans for a Bombing Run this weekend, I thought maybe Halo 3 would be a fine idea seeing as the new update came out and now all the shazamm around the trailer.

On the note of the Bombing Run, I think I'm going to be unavailable this week.  I've got a short story due for workshop Monday, so I'm spending my weekend editing and such. 

:-/  Sowwy, lovers.

It's alright, you can't hold hands with Systech in Halo 3... But I guess you could Tea bag him :P
