Giant Bombcast 12-09-2008

Following some heinous technical difficulties, it's take two of this week's Giant Bombcast! With Jeff as our one-man house band, we discuss Prince of Persia, Square Enix and Eidos, turning a DSi into a talkbox, Crackdown 2, Michael Phelps, and more!

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

Some don't enjoy this and some other Podcasts because you guys are unstructured and just shoot the shit, but I think it's amazing and hilarious because you guys crack many of us up. Keep up the good work.

Is Foster's good? I live in Australia and have never had it. With that being said nobody really drinks it here despite the stereotype.

I agree Fosters is barely sold here and is only on tap in tourist towns.
Coopers is by far the greatest beer.

You guys should do two podcasts more often. I found this more entertaining than usual, and the usual amount of entertainment is quite high.

Oh yeah Bottles of Coopers that  would be even better .   Use to brew it some time back but i  was starting to enjoy it just a little to much haha got the alchohol content up to 12% and still tasting crisp . Lol it was a challenge for anyone to get through more than 3 bottles .

They DO need to be boozed up every week. Giant Bomb + Alcohol = Epic Awesome

Well... hey I guess I'm drink by now... sp.. er so than shur  I am ahppppy,  un, er um, haapppy, to, dammit I just lost my smoke in the trash... hold on...

In actuality..  It is glad to see the group with the goofiness that kindof got lost when before the tgs days.  Welcome back, even if it means you gotta do the whole thing all over again.  Incomprehensible giggling makes it all work for me.  So Gracias.  I'm in company.  We are home.

Ah ha! i knew they would of have to have done this one twice, just knew it.

Sometimes, your knowledge of certain game's stories can be appauling though :/ but that's understandable of course. Funny as fuck though!!! that keyboard thing is the best addition to the podcast since...well i dunno!

Community podcast's...uuugh.

Coakroach is right
Don't drink Fosters guys (although it contributes to our economy and is probably better than American beers)
The amusing thing is that no-one here does drink it, but it is the 'Aussie beer'
Tooheys Extra Dry or Tooheys Pils is where it is at. Plus its always mad walking into a bottle-o (bottle shop) and asking for some Pils
Looking forward to listening to the podcast guys

If Patrick Fitzgerald has been wiretapping the GiantBomb, then maybe the original podcast can be saved?

I'm in the minority, but that really sucked.  Listening to a bunch of drunk guys laugh at the dumbest shit over and over when you yourself are sober is not fun.
