Yeah Sorry about the title. I wasn't trolling honest.
For any of the guys rejecting this solely as it involves Gamespot staff. Could you not derive any pleasure from them getting their ass handed to them if team GB are victorious.
This thread may seem a tiny bit morbid but I'm sure every user just read that tweet and instantly felt the need to let Jeff know they wished him the best. Being the all round awesome gentleman he is, he felt the need to tell us that some content might not be up despite dealing with whatever private matter he's going through. Jeff is the heart and deeply filthy soul of Giant Bomb so it's completely natural to worry that he's doing ok.
Just for balance i'm sure lots of players have experienced major lag but i'm 90+ hours in on my original fat ps3 and i've hardly noticed any lag issues and the game has frozen only once. Compared to playing through fallout 3 where I was constantly expecting a crash around every new corner it's been pretty smooth sailing.
Thought they might have had a bit more of a gap if they're developing a new protagonist and storyline. I guess if they left it any later it might be around the time they'd be starting developing for the next round of consoles though.
I'd just rather i was helping to pay the guys who run the site's wages rather than advertisers. We've all seen what happens to websites when the priority is page views and link clicks and that's why they don't breed a community because it's hard to inject personality to a site set up like that.
I shelled out for the annual subscription because I felt guilty at the sheer amount of quality journalism and entertainment these guys provide and i can't think of a single purchase that provides better value for money that I could make. The fact that it's a website has no bearing on my decision - good content is good content and the fact they reward the people supporting them is great. Anything that keeps the site impartial and less reliant on advertising is to be applauded and without that the site would lose the uniqueness that marks it out from the rest of the online game press.
I trust Rockstar to put in the usual excellent work they do developing characters, between GTA4 and RDR they really are out on their own with open world storytelling. San Andreas was as much about portraying 90's hip hop culture as it was about California and this looks more like a fresh modern take on Cali.
