Double dosage of Bombcast! Woohoo!

What's this?!

D: ... oh my good ness :D!!!!!!!! Exitement overload!!!!!!!

Sexual

What a surprise!

Bombcast? ME?

Both together!?

/swoon

Keep it like a secret

uh uh uh

BWAH!? Secret Bombcast!!!!

A thing!

I have done a pretty good job so far staying away from most things Mass Effect 3 related. The only things I've seen are the live action trailers, so I know that the Reapers come to Earth and Shepard has to save it. Beyond that I know almost nothing about the game. Is this Bombcast talking about just 1 and 2 or do they talk at length about 3 and what's in it. I would very much like to listen to this to get myself even more pumped, if that's possible, but want to avoid any other info about 3. Is this safe to listen to?

Hosting Vinny!. God damn did I love when Vinny was a podcast host on the hotspot.

gamepad support on PC?

Moderator Vinny, in the house.

this was a feel good listen. Thank you.

someone make a thread for this one so peeps know it's here!

Top quality episode this week. Really really good.

OMFG

this is too good

What the hell? You guys should probably tell people this exists.

@Milkman:Sssssssssssh. It's a secret!

They don't talk about any specific story stuff, just the thought that went in behind making the game, multiplayer, responding to fan expectation. There's a bit of plot justification behind the multiplayer, but it's not specific and it's common knowledge.

OH SHIT

Ninja Bombcast.

Stealthy Bombcast.

That's the best beginning of any bombcast ever.

i knew something was up when the bombcast icon said New glad i popped by again!.

So hyped for next week.

been a WHILE since we've had a vinnycast 

Damn you Brad! How dare you reference the same obscure character in the naming of your Shepard as I did!

Hostmaster, Vinny Caravella.

Woah, Vinny is leading this bombcast!

Really cool that he came back! After listening to this I'm officially signing off on all online media as I don't want review scores, opinions and even spoilers to ruin my ME3 experience. Gotta be oblivious.

Vinny hosting a Bombcast? The world has gone insane?!

Vinnyhost. I am having so many flashbacks.

Ohhhhhhh... Mass Effect music makes me wanna faint. Can't freaking wait!

Vinny did a good job as per usual. Everyone asked good questions.

You can tell the producer... Sorry, i'll use him name; Casey Hudson - was a creative under the veil of having to sell his game. He did not always answer the questions - often changing the question around into a pitch for the game, however when brad asked him (i think it was brad) what he would like to make if he had a choice - his answer of "a separate story in new york" peaked my interest. (as it did brad's, because he followed up with another question about the viability of setting a game in new york from perspective of visual consistency). And not just a 'shooter' in new york either, it sounded like he wanted to make a game that just dealt with some everyday life. And that's interesting as hell if it's done with imagination and zest.

I am more for games being 'more that what we consider them' than I am the entire giant bomb website. Hell, I am more for that concept actually taking flight that I am being a gamer and playing games. And I love games.

I just need to see the industry delve into new areas. Do something new. Rethink things.

Some people just want more saints row or call of duty, or another jrpg dealing with the same themes.

I am NOT done with those a-typical games, I just need people to make alternatives enough for alternatives to actually matter to people that are not simply me and a few other randoms across the world.

Why do we always need to lean on something like a "shooter", there is a vast sea of possibilies, yet we choose 1 out of ten million. And that same 1 every.single.time.

Outside the damn box people, [ this is the box] <---- That's the box. This is outside the goddamn box.

When he said "we don't try to make any choices the wrong choice" who else thought that killing Wrex is just straight up the wrong choice :P

They probably didn't want people to think the "new!" was referring to yesterday's podcast and have people ignore it. Either way the "new!" tag is showing up now.

Vinny is my favorite host. Especially from his gamespot days.

No sir. The world is now officially un-insaned. Maximum un-insanity. MAXIMUM VIN-SANITY!

Just gonna ask once

ARE THERE ANY SPOILERS ON THIS EPISODE FOR MASS EFFECT 3?

Sorry for the caps but I gotta know because I wanna listen

Nice interview with great questions!

@Venatio: No story specific spoilers feel free to listen

I'm more excited to play SSX than this but it'll probably suck me right back in just like ME2 did.

WOW VINNY HOST! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So soothing.

Decent show, but damn does the Bombcast lack without Ryan. He knows how to control the flow of topics.

I truly truly don't mean to start an argument, but to anyone who has listened, is there any comment in the podcast on ME 3 and the possibility of it coming to Steam?

Thanks!

How have I not noticed this podcast earlier? I'm actually a little hesitant to listen to it though in case of spoilers.

@iBePeRFeCT: It's completely spoiler free, they talk about the design philosophies of the franchise and stuff like multiplayer in 3 and fan reaction to some of the changes, I've also being avoiding stuff about the game but you can totally listen to this
