Can't un-hear paranoid drug-addict Brad.

Is there a lamer old person band than Guns N' Roses? Don't get me wrong, Appetite for Destruction is fantastic but for every hit that they had, they had six horrible ridiculous cover ballads to cancel them out.

I honestly thought that chinese democracy wasn't bad... prostitute is a great song.

Yeah, honestly, Chinese Democracy is a decent album. It's just not a good Guns N' Roses album. It's Axl Rose's solo album in everything but name.

Dave Mustaine's been doing that with Megadeth for well over 15 years now.

If there's one 'American thing' I'll never get it's the whole lawn business.

Land of the free, for the longest time had people die of curable diseases for the sake of retaining the freedom to choose a health care provider without restriction - must keep your lawn within strict parameters and make sure to purchase the type of seeds that are accepted by your community.

Yeah, I'm with you.

EDIT: Don't get me wrong, not criticising the "land of the free" part, just being weirded out by how the hell it's legal to force you to keep your own front yard in a certain manner.

These days, I rarely use printers, but the annoyances that comes with inkjet refills and such is why I switched to a laser printer 3 years ago. Hell, stock toner in that same laser printer, a HP unit, only recently went empty, and even then, the replacement toner was only about 10 bucks on Amazon.

With that being said, I went ahead got another laser printer recently (actually, I am waiting for it to arrive in the next few days), because Amazon had a Brother WiFi unit on sale, and I am giving the old HP unit to my little brother.

Nothing quite like the lack of Jeff and Patrick to turn the bombcast into a discussion about the crushing onset of middle age. Also, Brad openly says, on the record, that he is a graphics whore.

"Is there any other news? Any new games this week? Any Aliens news? Any Crysis news? ...Any video game movie news? Nope? Okay emails."

Jesus, what does Nintendo have to do to get attention from these guys? They announced a sequel to Giantbomb's 2009(?) DS game of the year in a new Mario and Luigi RPG alongside a bunch of smaller scale projects like Mario Golf and three new IPs on their eShop service. Beyond any sort of fanboy rage nonsense, is the worlds biggest video game publisher announcing 6 or so brand new games not even a blip on the radar anymore? Could six new games from any other console game publisher be similarly forgotten?

What am I missing here? I can't find that level of depth inside the wiki search. There was talk about being able to search for games that have both dungeons and dragons in them, but from what I'm seeing, there's no object/concept/etc search box. The only things you can actively search for is developer and publisher? @snide

Just listening to this after watching the Sony 2013 reveal, hah. First of all, a big kudos to Dave's work ethic. I can't imagine all the debugging that must have been necessary to get things running.

I really like the non-gaming convos. Vinny's life stories are so relatable, and the Ryan is pretty introspective sometimes. I like his vocabulary. And Brad... oh, Brad. On top of this, nearly everything is coated with a sense of humor and that makes the Bombcast so fun to listen to.

Please let there be a 'Dave Fortress' style video for Eve Online. That would be excellence! Call it.... 'Dave's Bayou'?
