Giant Bombcast 03/11/2014

Drummer, professional traveler, and apparent Grim Reaper John Drake joins us to discuss the horrible things he's seen on the road, the release of Titanfall, the continued non-release of Driveclub, the release of Amy Hennig, the release of Jack Tretton, the release of being close to a beautiful car, and the release of Dark Souls II!

The Giant Bombcast is the world's most beloved video game podcast, and now it's available in video form.

"Let's Talk About Video Games Unless the Food Is Interesting" should be the new name of the podcast.

A robot horse, you say...?

For those unfamiliar with G Gundam, I should also point out that the robot horse is piloted by an actual horse. Yeah.

I was literally about to post this image as soon as this topic came up and I'm really glad someone beat me to it.

Did anyone else hear the rumble they were talking about? Maybe I'm just an old man going deaf, but I didn't hear a thing. It almost made it more freaky.

A wall of icons and text sounds exactly like what most Dark Souls fans want more of.

A robot horse, you say...?

For those unfamiliar with G Gundam, I should also point out that the robot horse is piloted by an actual horse. Yeah.

I'm not even going to bother asking about the strategic advantage a giant flying space robot would get from riding on a giant robot horse.

Dear Australia,

Please sink into the ocean.

But sorry, biologists aren't real scientists. You guys are posers. But not hipsters like environmental scientists.

Is the difference between this and the normal podcast just the absence of the ad at the beginning? ...Because, I always enjoy Jeff & Vinny's delivery of the opening ad. Hey, Small Business Owner!

I absolutely LOVE that Brad and Vinny are playing Dark Souls 2 together like this, and I feel happy for Vinny that he has somebody to talk to about the game this time. Brings a smile to my face.

Also yay for John Drake being back on the Bombcast.

Oh dip, How intense is the chat about Dark Souls II? I'm trying to avoid everything I can until the PC release date, but I also really want to get my Bombcast on.

The only difference is that the premium Bombcast doesn't have ads, yeah. Jeff and Dave made a promise from the start of the Premium subscription model that there wouldn't be any ads for Premium members, so that's why they're doing this. I think most of us Premium members prefer it with ads (the new GB neoGAF thread is even named after the "Hey there, small business man" catchphrase).

So are these little skits at the start of the Bombcast actual adverts that Jeff has found a way to make cool and fun?
