Giant Bombcast 05-04-2010

Gerstmann goes off on headshots, Vinny gets Dieseled, Brad defends his slap-worthy sunburn, Ryan succumbs to the madness of the Mickey Rourke Whopper, and we still find the time to talk about some damn games on this week's Bombcast!

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

I don't think it's a Astronaut, it's a deep sea diver. If that's right then I'm one step closer to having a game based on Men of Honor starring Cuba Gooding Jr.  
 
anyway, still listening but good episode so far

Being a big Fallout 1&2 fan I love Jeff raging about the ending of Fallout 3. That's something that would have never happened in those games. I mean railroading the player just because the developer thinks that a sacrifice is needed for it to feel impactful. Ah, I really hope that New Vegas will make up for the disappoinment that was Fallout 3 (story-/character-/dialogue-wise, I had no problems with the gameplay).

Gamefly isn't only really a good deal for those of us with way to much free time. I tend to send games back about 2 days after I get them I  go through 7 or 8  a month.

No, Jeff, headshots are NOT ruining gaming. Where in hell did that statement come from? If anything they're pushing it forward. Poor design and shit A.I. are hurting gaming.

" It really irked me that Jeff seemed to think the Halo crowd is the worst community on xbox live when I've had just a bad time, if not worse, with Modern Warfare 2. I think both crowds are absolutely ridiculous and filled with idiots. The only difference is with MW2 you get a lot more idiots with obnoxious pot references in their names.  Vinny, I like you a lot but if you weren't defending a flag it would irritate me as well. To be fair, I probably wouldn't bitch at you and people who do so are ridiculous, but if you were just running around trying to kill I don't blame others for being irritated... "
honestly i think the xbox live community is less annoying than some pc ones like old counterstrike or team fortress 2. At least with xbox live its easy to ignore idiots on mics but in pc games you have to actually read and see all the racial and gender slurs typed out.

Cool podcast guys. About the part where one of you said you went on a date(/were using at as an example) and you told them you review video-games; I've had the same thing at an interview. "So what do you do, do you play video-games?" and in my mind I was like, "Oh fuck!"
