Giant Bombcast E3 2009 Day One

We're joined by Obsidian's Matthew Rorie as we discuss the Nintendo and Sony press conferences, much of Activision's offerings, Mass Effect 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Supreme Commander 2, and more!

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

@Dizzyhippos:Ā You're not crazy. The NEVER image has been reappropriated, though, and I wanted to be consistent about the images on this page. I want you to be able to KNOW at a quick glance at the archives that these are E3 podcasts.

i was watching the nintendo conference and I imediately noticed the LACK of smile on cammie this year, it was basically the opposite of last year, she looked really gloom or bummed throughout the whole thing, and that HAD to be in response to last year's smile business... how about next year cammie, you just act like a normal person maybe?

LINUX ON A STICK (USB) - forget the dev-kit-thing.

I rock the net from a usb-stick, without touching the harddrives - no viruses, no malware, no nothing. 3GB Ubuntu-Linux, 1GB homedrive for config/emails.

Waiting for a phone to boot it, too...

y'know, before listening to this podcast, I was totally gonna go back and play mass effect before dragon age comes out, but you guys reminded me of just how much i despised the majority of the bullshit sidequests that you had to do . . . mining ore is NOT, i repeat, NOT a cool side quest. Ā EVER.

Wow, they sound very unexcited about Sony. Sony and Microsoft both had an awesome lineup, what's up with the Bombcast?

I'm a little disappointed in you guys in this bombcast. I thought Sony's conference was just as good as Microsoft's yet you guys don't sound excited about Sony's announcements.

See, this is everything the Treyarch rep was NOT. That's why this podcast won't get many, if any complaints. Matthew Rorie was just a cool dude hanging out with the Giantbomb staff, not a drone shilling his product.

And I'm not even a fan of Obsidian.

I don't know why some of you are hatin on them, for not liking Sony's conference. If you hadn't noticed yet, these guys are pro 360 and get excited for 360 games more than any other platform. It's not a bad thing, they just have their console preference.

Nope, I didn't. But it's good to know.

Also, Matthew Rorie has a really hot gf. Very impressive, good sir.

They explained that it was because it was all leaked already, Which really does make sense.

I think it's pretty big news that Mario Galaxy 2 is coming out. I mean, it's the first proper sequel to a mario game since Super Mario Bros 3. Mario World got Yoshi's Island or whatever but it's te first time they streight up call it 2.
