Game of the Year 2012: Day Five Recap

quest?

EDIT: quest!

yay

woo day 5

WOO

aww yee

DROP A BOMB ON IT.

Goty Detonated my face. The background effects fit it in perfectly.

YES, VINNY'S RUNNER UP RUNNER UP GOTY OF THE VIN!

Yeah GOTY!

First!

Oh. My. Fuck...

FRIENDS

Oh god these just keep getting better and better :D :D

:/

hah a Friends spoof

NOT FIRST!

Glad to see the guys didn't let Walking Dead hyperbole and afterglow win game of the year.

Hey Vinny in the window. )

Without looking at the results, I will assume that Amy got GOTY.

Congrats, Amy. You deserve it.

The Giant Bomb Theory

let's go, buttface.

OH COME ON HOW CAN THE WALKING DEAD NOT BE THE GOTY.

HOLY SHIT. I just fell out of my fucking chair.

Oh no Brad :(

Ping Pong or as the Chinese say: Ping Pong.

Awesome! Also, why is that radio clip in the bar scene with Vinny and Brad in Dutch?

This is my new favorite Giant Bomb video. You guys nailed GOTY this year!

Aww Brad =<

I'm sorry but this was the weakest of the 5 videos in my opinion. The other 4 were TOTALLY FANTASTIC though, so it's okay!

Also, shocked to see XCOM win over The Walking Dead!

I'm okay with XCOM winning. I fucking loved it. It was my #2.

Where is Vinny's top 10?

woo!

This was the hardest one to watch just because sitcom parody is unbearable.

I love that this episode followed the TV tradition of having any and all video games' sounds be replaced by those from Pac-Man on the VCS.

My Award to the gaming website that never disappoints goes to....Giant Bomb. Wow, these guys top themselves every year. This is great.

Sleepy Dawgs love!

EDIT: That first jump-kick is the best thing all year.

So goddamn good. The laugh track was fucking perfect.

The Atari Pac Man sounds... substitute for any video game

My favorite part of this year? Watching Vinny play Sleeping Dogs.

Pretty much called their GOTY. Was easy after listening to the Bombcasts in October since they talked about it extensively and everyone of them had it on their top 10 list and was the one they could all agree on!

Patrick is the Cousin Oliver of Giant Bomb CONFIRMED!

I don't know Patrick, if you did collide with a police car in real life, I am sure they would do something about it. I get that not everyone likes GTA IV but some of these criticisms are just ridiculous.

The hoarders one was the weakest because the joke was already played out before they made it. It was easy and dumb to go "oh lets make a parody of hoarders because jeff has a nutso game collection" the rest were pretty creative and funny. The Hunkin special report was the best. Followed by the The Workplace, and Cop Show.

CBS needs to greenlight this. This is a billion times better than anything else they've got on there.

JEFF GERSTMANN NEEDS TO BE ON TV!!

FUCK YES XCOM!

I'll go to Vinny's Pub Coffee Shop any day!

#TEAM BRAD

@Vod_Crack: GTA police force was always anal about bumping in to their cars, yeah. And it does make sense.

I can't say it served much purpose for my enjoyment of the series though, so I agree with Patrick there.

I could watch vinny play sleepy dawgs all day.

Is Patrick Klepek becoming typecast as Scumbag Patrick?

Man people even bitch about small off hand comments. I guess i shouldn't be surprised.
