I remember having zero interest in the podcast, until I actually listened to one about a year ago...after that I almost got fired from work because I wouldn't take off my headphones catching up with them all ^_^ <3 bombcast

Anyone else got an End of Time vibe from the first few notes of the holiday music intro?

Posted by JordanaRama

That opening theme was immaculate.

IMM-AC-U-LATE.

Well, 1 award down and I find myself at the first award I need to skip. I want to finish Spec Ops before I listen to the discussion for Best Sequence or whatever.

When do I skip to for the discussion of the next award to start?

Posted by Oscar__Explosion

Classy intro

Edited by masterpaperlink

oh crap now i remember why i skip half these podcasts

AH god dam i was skipping 30sec at a time catching 0.1 seconds of convo and STILL managed to get a walking dead spoiler

Posted by PCWV

I love the smooth version of the theme tune.

Posted by Roboculus92

sweet holiday tune

Posted by Deckard42

Ah yes, something to listen to while I drive to Illinois tonight.

Edited by Alorithin

There are 4 endings to spec ops the line. You can kill all the soldiers. http://youtu.be/lauUirttVhs?t=11m12s

I feel like the spoilers for Binary Domain were very sudden. I may need to relisten to this to confirm, but be warned that that there may not be a lead-up to them. Thankfully (not really), I'd already played through that game.
