Giant Bomb LIVE! at E3 2015: Day 03

I lost it when dave lang made him apologize. LOOK AT ME RIGHT NOW

I was listening to this at work today and could not stop laughing. Had to come home and watch the video of the Adam/John/Dave part. Still funny. I feel bad for Dave Lang, but this is one of the best Giant Bomb moments I've seen.

I think he was referring to last year when Lang was piss drunk.

I saw 3 executives of the games industry totally embarrass themselves and it was glorious!

BURN THE HERETIC

Now, Jeff uses the term "shitshow" fairly often. I'm glad we have a new benchmark.

I live on the east coast so it was getting past 3am when this was live. I decided to stop watching and go to bed, and the last thing I heard when as I closed the stream was Lang ask "did you just tweet out my phone number?" Boy, did I really miss something else. What a... spectacle.

And ever since then, she has used that incident constantly on social media as an example of how women are unfairly judged.

No, it had nothing to do with your gender, it had to do with how extremely annoying you were being.

... Wow.

Muh fuckas talkin' shit about Lockdown?! *cocks shotgun* NOT ON MY WATCH

Wow, I could listen to Lorne Lanning speak for ages...

Holy crap, the end to this was fucking amazing.

Johnny V Did Nothing Wrong

I gotta say I'm real dissapointed with the format this year. I miss the old days of getting 5+ drunk heads on mics screaming about video games. this is too polished

I thought it was a Leigh Alexander reference?

LIFE IS PAIN!

I mean, it could be because Jeff was so vague, but that was never like "over the line", it was just somebody getting drunk and saying a bunch of shit that was factually incorrect.

Before everything went to shit

The Hoop God!

What's the timecode for 'Wreckateer? WRECK MY CAREER!' ?

Tha Hoop Gawd* ;)

"I will...I will...."

So good

The amount of times this "took a weird left turn" before it actually does is quite alarming.

The final segment is such a glorious shit-show it's magical.

This stream is why Giant Bomb is the greatest website for fucking anything on the internet.

"This is some Beyonce get that off the internet shit, doesn't work like that!" Best E3 segment ever, might be the most I've laughed on this website in years. Hilarious train wreck. Dave Lang taking it well (you could tell he wasn't really that mad cause he knew it was just a stupid drunken error) but then milking it like a champ to fuck with his friend and the crowd reactions made it all the better.

Something adorable and hilarious about watching John V realize he fucked up and Dave just helping him dig the hole deeper and deeper. You can tell these guys are going to be friends forever, cause only real friends can get away with giving eachother that much shit.

All the other segments and guests were good too. I loved all the VR talk on these live shows, seems like everyone in the industry is genuinely excited for VR, it's so cool to see them all come together on that common ground.

What a glorious shit show. Wow.

Just finished that last segment. Fantastic, definitely an amazing GB moment haha.

I love video games (?)

This episode is not safe to listen to while driving due to watery eyes caused by laughter.

Nice synopsis, I couldn't agree more.

Oh my god...I just got around to watching that trainwreck of a final segment. What the hell is wrong with Johnny V? That's a dick move to post Lang's number publicly like that. I really didn't feel like Johnny was being picked on by Lang and Adam either. To me it seemed like all three of them were just giving each other shit equally. They all definitely went a little too far due to being very drunk, but Johnny was the only one that got offended and made himself a victim. And...damn, it got awkward for a bit there. But hey, this is the kind of shit that makes Giant Bomb great.

I have to say that putting super drunk Lang and Johnny V on the couch with basically anyone else is 100% guaranteed to produce gold. Overall, I have to give this livestream a 10/10. Would wreck that train again.

Soooo... I heard the podcast as soon as it went up but reserved judgement until I could watch the video. I just did that and... can anyone explain when exactly Adam and Dave were in any way mean to Johnny? I can't figure out when someone teased him so hard that he needed to lash out, completely ignoring the fact that he went full nuclear at step one.

Whatever, I love those weirdos. Can't wait to see them again.

Also - pretty please make a Jeff Gerstmann talk show. Throw that man into a blazer, put him behind a desk, and shove a big, old-timey, nonfunctional microphone in his face. Doesn't even need to be game related.

Late to the party as always, but this was epic - especially watching on a big screen in hi def so's to see all the pixels of the train wreck.

Reminder to myself:

Life is pain!

Johnny V is always so incredibly insecure. No wonder the others love poking fun at him, he thinks they're doing it either way. XD

Also, I'm thinking the one incident that was worse was drunk Leigh Alexander a few years back.

They were referring to the GDC stream with Dave Lang and Ed Boon. Adam mentions it a little bit later.

man, this is one of the all time classics. 3 drunk fools taking it completely off the rails.

"you walking trash bags!". That's my new favorite insult of all time.
