The Comic Commish - September '13
By Mento 15 Comments
Hey Fond Bomb-adils, it's time for the very last Comic Commish, at least with this format. Maybe you saw one of the eleven other ones of these I did, but this is a monthly feature in which I propose three ideas for new Giant Bomb subscriber content as a way to thank both the site and my Gold Membership Sponsor @omghisam for allowing me the privilege to see what they're up to behind the pay barrier.
It's right at the end of this twelve month homage that I pull out all of the stops and produce the best, funniest and most insightful ideas a whole bunch of cop-outs because I ran out of ideas a long time ago. Thanks for all your comments over the past year, everyone. Who knows? We might even have a similar feature starting next month, though obviously I will need to get the hell off this topic. For all our sakes.
(Every past Comic Commish can be found here: Oct, Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May,Jun, Jul, Aug and... well, you're reading Sep.)
Premium Content For Your Premium Contempt
It might be a bit odd to watch a bunch of dudes watching a different video from the internet, but it's always fun to have the Bomb Crew observe true gaming masters at work. I'll not be so dismissive to say that the crew don't have skills of their own, but the speed-running community is almost scary in how brutally efficient and error-free they can be, even while being recorded live. For this feature, without knowing the context behind all the various speedrun tricks and glitch-exploits, the team try and commentate - in real time - the whys and hows of some of the most insane and inexplicable speedruns out there. (I wish could recall which UPF had the Ocarina of Time speedrun...)
None of these ideas got particularly far. Thankfully.
I should probably clarify somewhere that I didn't actually ask a single one of these people anything. Buncha weirdos.
