Giant Bombcast 06-28-2011

Wait, this is the first time I've ever fucking heard of them using an AC. I listen with headphones on and I have never, EVER noticed something in the background being a dick and making a lot of noise.

You guys are delusional.

GIANT 5-CAST IS ALIVEEEE! I love it when all five of you guys do a podcast. So much great stuff!

SWG name: Francis York Morgan

Ryan supporter of slave labor. Fuck you fatty.

DAVE!

What song are they talking about at like 37:00?

Kurt Busch is from Australia? Someone better tell him his whole life is a lie.

It's ok Ryan. You're a trooper for just showing up at the race, and enduring the noise and the masses of humanity. Sounds like he had a blast. Awesome.

At like 1:52 Patrick asks if the free TF2 could happen on PS3, and Jeff says "no playing with PC players would suck" etc... Well Portal 2 does 'cross game play' already right? AND Team Fortress is already on PS3 so they could have the PS3 version free still even if its not connected to the PC version. So why did Jeff shoot that down? Weird!

DSiWARE RELEASES FINALLY RETURNING TO THE BOMBCAST WHOO HOO!!!

Story and characters are important to me, so looks like I'll be completely missing out on INFAMOUS 2.

Patrick exaggerated how bad it was. If you actually compare it to other video game stories it's perfectly serviceable, and better than the first game's story.

Just like how virtually everything about the game is improved from the first, but they've completely failed to put that across on the show.

Hot damn, am I late for this week's Bombcast or what. Damn you, work, damn you!

Loved this bombcast. 
Love the hate on Infamous 2 and Ryan finally said it!  "I am some dude without hair and powers bahhhhh!" 
First Person Ghost Rape 
"You like these badly animated tits?"

Because two-player co-op in a slowly paced puzzle game is completely different from the large-scale competitive insanity of TF2.

Man, if you went by the Bombcast, Infamous completely fucking sucks, and that's ridiculous. Also, a lot of talking in ignorance.

Feel free to enlighten us, unless ignorance means "disagreement with my opinion."

@Brad: The part about having to 'grind the karma out' doing side missions in order to betray your alignment. You hit those choices (the 'new power' choice, and the final choice) and it automatically throws you all the way blue or red. Which was kind of a bummer when I hit the 'new power' choice, as I was about halfway to filling out my hero karma and it made me full on heroic after. Similar to the original Infamous where using the second Ray Sphere makes you immediately all the way evil and throwin' black lightning.

A petty gripe, you do say 'its my impression', but hey. As for the 'sounds like it sucks', if no one read the review and just went by the Bombcast, it sounds like Infamous is completely mediocre. The words suck, horrible and meaningless get used so much, I'd never have believed it got 4 stars. I think 4 is accurate, but shit dude, it don't sound like that on the Bombcast.

full squad! color me excited :D

People are trying to steal <>? How dare they! That's our and Paul Barnett's Sims gang sign! Nobody else's!

Yea!! where the fuck is condemned 3 and condemned 2 on PC! GOD DAMN IT!

What the fuck, you should not tell the people that work on video games that they should have shitty working conditions. At least say that this shit should fucking stop, so stupid, shit is making me angry as fuck.

Loool

The man speaks the truth...sort of obvious though really.

hi i,m new  can guide me 

They did say that there would be a B-Cast today right? When would it have been recorded?

sweet baby ray's!

vurst!?

whut is up cast

is this the one where they were talking about the end of star wars?
if you dont call it "not like sith" you will be failures.

Kind of sad hearing Ryan kind of defend the crunch stories at Rockstar with the usual "Really good games need this" excuse that we heard recently from a lot of people about Cyberpunk.

But you know, 10 years ago. I'm sure his stance on it changed from here on out too. Love ya Ryan.
