The Giant Bomb crew, plain and simple.

Forums, Vinny, and sometimes decent reviews.

#53 Posted by Rihanna (72 posts) - 3 months, 27 days ago

The E3 nightly broadcasts.

#54 Posted by Coafi (874 posts) - 3 months, 26 days ago

The quests. :'(

The honesty. The fact that these dudes just tell it like it is, and don't seem 'bought'. That refreshing change of pace is what drew me here initially, and it's what keeps me a fan. No (or at least, very little) bullshit on this site; just the truth, and I really appreciate that.

Oh, and I'd like to add: the Wiki!

Even though I didn't have too much time to make any recent edits, I really like the wiki :)

at the risk of being unpopular-

their cynicism. that might strike some as odd- but it lets me know they're honest. they have a strong editorial voice- and i much prefer that to vapid and sterile copy.

that and they're hilarious!

It feels like these guys are doing what they're doing because they want to, not because they're paid to. That shows through in all their content, and it's what makes it so much more enjoyable than other outlets (though Greg Miller at IGN is trying his damndest to bring that attitude back to their site).

Jeff's laugh.

I prefer Ryan's.

The Persona 4 Endurance Run. So much so that I have only watched 154 episodes out of 155, so for me it will never end.

Man, that sounds so dumb and sentimental now I've wrote it down.

#64 Posted by Wrect (308 posts) - 3 months, 26 days ago

The Podcast. It's still the best one out there.

#65 Posted by Caustic_Fox (96 posts) - 3 months, 26 days ago

I joined this site on the guise that most of the games have isolated wiki pages for characters and such. And to a lower extent, the forums are less restrictive than on some of the larger gaming sites out there.

PS. The smaller community is also welcomed.

#66 Edited by Miketakon (499 posts) - 3 months, 26 days ago

The honesty.. I don't feel like I'm being lied to. Also Vinny the man is magic.

#67 Posted by Aarglefarg (24 posts) - 3 months, 24 days ago

I like banter especially when people are videogaming.

#68 Posted by JMatrix (379 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

The Crew, with Vinny as the most shining example. I guess the community could be nice too, but having spent time here since 2010, without ever really taking part in much about anything that has happened on the forums, I feel like I won't be giving that a try anymore.

The personalities.

If I had to pick one reason why this site stands out (as well as my favorite aspect), this has to be it.

#70 Posted by Intro (1059 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

The community isn't a complete piece of a shit like a lot of forums, especially gaming related forums lol.

I like the intimacy. Feels like I'm sitting on a rug palette by a crackling fire, sipping wine and sharing in camaraderie with great friends.

Not really, I mostly like the fact that the community is generally more informed and articulate than other sites, gaming or otherwise. I have better discussions about politics on here than I do on other sites dedicated to such things.

#73 Posted by Hawkerace (197 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

Every time Vinny swears.

Solid.

#74 Edited by Hockeymask27 (3485 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

All Hail Vinny!

#75 Posted by Live2bRighteous (238 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

Of course, it has to be the crew/quicklooks/their awesome livestreams. Although, I think another main reason is how mature the community is. I've spent a lot more time then I should have at Facepunch. It was quite dreadful... it was just teenagers with overly biased opinions 24/7.

#76 Edited by natedawg_kz (214 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

At first it was for the quick looks and the reviews since these guys seem to really honest. but then the community here is pretty awesome unlike a website like ign were you just get shouted if someone disagrees with your comment.

Live streams and stuff with game developers

#79 Posted by casper_ (774 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

i like the crushing cynicism

#80 Posted by Demoskinos (9498 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

The erotic fan fiction.

The rampant, gratuitous nudity.

Serious answer: everything. There are no winners or losers here. Everybody gets a trophy! Like t-ball.

Hey guys, during the beta you could use keys to post your comments, what were they? I can't remember. It was spacebar something, wasn't it? Or was it tab something?

edit: Tab space! That's what it was!

#83 Posted by crusader8463 (13171 posts) - 3 months, 23 days ago

When the guys are doing videos of stuff they actually care about it's great, but when they do stuff for a game they are not in the mood for good god is it awful.
