So with Jeff topping the podcast charts I've been thinking. 
I don't really know anyone who goes out of his way to prove a point like Jeff does... He really is impressive. 
 I mean this is stuff that everyone knows but I just wanna say it again.  
 
He does a review for Kane and Lynch and basically gives it a fair review, and says it is SHIT with some good ideas in it.  
Can we finally admit that he got fired for it? Because he did. He did something that was harder for him to prove a point. Mad props. 
 
Then he takes it a step further and with the help of some great duders he sets up Giant Bomb which can we say is a great success? A direct and polite "fuck you" to his former job.  
  
 Every so often he plays terrible games like DCU and Tron (k maybe not terrible but not great) and others, and he plays them till no one can dispute that he has gotten the full experience and then gives his verdict. Now that is dedication... we rarely see that. 

Then skip ahead to a less dramatic thing but still cool. A minority of users bitch about the Nintendo download segment. Ryan and whoever else decided to be queer and get rid of it. Jeff decided to give another direct and polite "fuck you" and start a new podcast alongside the regular podcast.
And it freaking blew up! And it's awesome so far! Wasn't it #10 OVERALL in podcast land? 
 
Mad props to Jeff.  
 
Anyone else agree? He doesn't seem to back down.

I think about Jeff in the shower

Is it possible to enjoy a website's content without giving virtual handjobs for every little thing that is considered mildly praiseworthy?

" I think about Jeff in the shower "

That's not healthy. 
 
Thinking about Jeff, I mean.

He's so dreamy.

I wouldn't say the NDX is going out of his way to make a point. I'd call it going out of his way to do something dumb, and making it funnier than anyone else could. 
 
And I wouldn't call creating Giant Bomb going out of his way to make a point, I'd call it going out of his way to find a new job to pay the mortgage.

It's pretty much understood that Jeff got dropped because of things surrounding Kane & Lynch. Making GiantBomb was just something he did to make money and continue doing what he knew. The NintenDownload X-press is clearly just an extended joke and not something worth getting worked up about either way.
 
Jeff is a pretty cool guy, but don't go out of your way to make him an idol.

yeah he's pretty much a boss

And this is his reward for all his hard work. A bunch of dudes on a website thinking about him all day. Congratz Jeff.

As far as Video game reviewers go...  
Yea he is pretty much the best. 

I sometimes get lost in his eyes... 
 
I mean, uhh.

Yeah, man. Jeff is like my messiah. A true Hero, Legend - a Gift from God, a basket of fresh fruit, a 3 dollar bill a... fuck, he's alright I guess. 
 
Truth be told, I don't share many of his opinions regarding a lot of things, and his taste with games is at times the polar opposite of mine. He has a good sense of humour, at least.

" @Sweep: I want to be inside him.  "

is he the fat guy with the beard?

Ugh..

I don't think you could stroke it any harder than OP just did

" As far as Video game reviewers go...  Yea he is pretty much the best.  "

Your posting on the site he is mostly responsible for making.  Just saying. 
 
Your right though...
It probably doesn't hurt that I agree with most of his opinions on games. 

I've been thinking about DG991...

I like that thread title.

" I think about Jeff in the shower "

Why don't you get with him?

Jeff is a really good journalist with his integrity. I always hear him mention both sides of something when it's on reviews or QLs and is a major component of why I like this site so much.

He's also very dismissive of anything he doesn't like. 
 
That said, in the last 6-9 months, Jeff has been growing on me more and more. Jeff, Vinny and Dave are the reasons I come to this website. 
 
Long live... this website?

"is he the fat guy with the beard? "

I agree with the OP, it seems that Jeff always has a primary concern when reviewing, which is how FUN it is to play. But he is also aware of what could make the game better with his deep understanding of game mechanics.  
 
What I'm saying is, he dissects games with a surgeons precision, but he never looses focus on the fun factor.

You have over 2000 posts so you must come here quite a bit, how do you not know who is who.  "

I think of Jeff most when I'm searching through his garbage bags licking the yoghurt tops.

These are the kinda threads weird me the hell out...

" @Khann: Not really, like I said he plays things he doesn't like for way to long to prove a point. DCU for example.  Also, yea Vinny is underrated. He is a FUNNY dude.  "

I just want to give Jeff a big hug and never let go.
