DISCLAIMER: This is by no means saying that they will do another video series with Ryan or that they themselves even want to do one, so please keep it at stupidly absurd levels of GiantBomb fanboy speculation. Have a laugh, or give a serious response. I don't care.
Read video game books or comics? Hunt down obscure games? Ryan Davis in "Viva La Sausalito"? What are your thoughts?
What Should Ryan Davis Do After TANG Is Done?
How many more movies does he have left?
Like 3? What about the Pokemon movies. Do they count?
I really have no idea what other weekly feature they could do, but with the ER over and TANG coming to close, those geniuses in The Bomb Shelter will have to come up with something quick.
" @dbz1995: What about Dave? Why everyone forgot about Dave?! :'(. "Yes. They all have different reasons.
Jeff: To prove that he is winner.
Ryan: To prove that he is winnerer
Brad: To prove that he can win and pull a brad at te same time
Vinny: To prove that he can cast things other than Bufu
Drew: To prove that he hasn't disappeared forever yet
Dave: To show he is the true mastermind of Giantbomb

" This is a retarded thread. Everyone knows the answer is Shenmue endurance run. "The only way I'd ever watch a Shenmue Endurance Run would be if it was Brad by himself, talking into a mic with no one else in the office, and slowly going insane. I've said this many times before.
" that's a trick question. there is no end to TANG. "My bad. I should have said "extremely prolonged hiatus".
" Review bad games. "I was going to say something similar.
Ryan is at his best when he is insulting or pointing out the bad. Playing bad games and summarizing the experience will fit the TANG gap nicely. His suffering means hilarity will ensue.
" TANM Shitty games based on movies. Switch it up. "That idea actually is the most realistic out of all of the suggestions so far.
Honestly, once the backlog of Video Game based movies are run through, there will always be more movies coming out to review; it just won't be some weekly thing. At that point, there is probably a healthy amount of Video Game based books out there to review, but that will only last for a limited time, too; and besides that, books definitely take longer to read than movies take to watch, so it's probably a less viable option.
He should do a series of special Quick Looks of bad games based on movies. That way we'll have symmetry.

Hahah yeah, but that wouldnt last long. Even Ryan was struggling with the controls. I think all we would see would be brad slowly walking from wall to wall. No Ryan needs to control and brad makes the commentary, just like Vinny Jeff team.
Hells yeah the Pokemon movies should count and theres about a billion of them too.
He should finish the series off with The Wizard just because awesome.
TANG candidates (tangdidates?) according to wiki
" @dbz1995: What about Dave? Why everyone forgot about Dave?! :'(. "He went on vacation.
Who knows I bet they got something cooking to keep content going on the site.
Ryan will vow to prevent Uwe Boll from making another movie, by any means necessary. He will post weekly segments depicting his efforts to track Uwe down and defeat him. Over the course of the series Ryan will slowly lose his grip on reality, his hatred destroying what little sanity could be left after watching so many horrible movies. By the end of the series Mr Davis will be a burned out husk of a man, driven only be a desire for vengeance. The stunning conclusion will involve a poorly choreographed, over-the-top battle between the two men, with Ryan winning in a tragic Pyrrhic victory. Uwe is dead, but so is Ryan's soul.
how about - Gameplay: Origins.
In Gameplay: Origins, Ryan investigates the origins...of gameplay...and perhaps other things too.
Stuff like: where did Quick Time Events start? Was it Cosmic Ark on the Atari 2600, released in 1982?
Perhaps stuff like the evolution of inventory systems. The evolution of adventure games. The evolution of Bullet Hell shooters. The evolution of the "cinematic look". The evolution of narrative. The evolution of melee combat. The evolution of FMV games. The evolution of mission systems.
The origins of video game cliches like: The pre-pubescent RPG hero. Exploding barrels. Life-restoring chicken dinners in trash cans and walls.
I'd be interested in stuff like that. It's always nice to learn about the history of stuff.
TANG won't end...TANG is forever. I've seen a lot of good internet shows come and go, but I just won't see TANG leave this awesome website.
- Him and Brad do their own endurance run.
- Video game novels. Very unlikely since they would take so long to read.
- Not do TANG anymore.
- Have more time to do reviews of games or interviews.

I think he should start reviews newly released movies
"This.
