Giant Bombcast Pre-E3 2012: The Sealed Envelope

Universal ammo for Dead Space 3? No thanks, EA.

But it was kind of weird to hear Jeff sound opposed to changes to the Dead Space formula when he just blasted thru Dead Space 2 on Easy.

where is last night's audio?

edit: nvm I'm dumb

"This has to be a big year for the Vita."

Both completely accurate.

@FriendlyPhoenix: I do believe sony entertainment which is the part of sony people talk about making money is both movies and video games.

@FriendlyPhoenix: Well, not quite. Sony's electronics division, financial services, and good ole' games all seem to be more profitable for Sony than it's Pictures group. It's electronics division is bleeding, as is Sony Pictures, so the Playstation Brand does actually seem to be incredibly valuable for Sony right now, even if for no other reason than getting a solid piece of name-recognition in millions of people's homes.

I love how wrong they are.

It's Tuueessddaayy!

I'm gonna listen to this anyway, just to see how awful their predictions were.

alright!  wow this is really cool

Adele, yeah!

Flo Rida and Usher. hahaha.

I am half disappointed that this was not about Dave's GOTY sealed envelope.

Dude, I'm with Jack Tretton. I really liked Psi-Ops.

Being someone that actually enjoys Pachter, he was a little unbearable during this. No one cares what NeoGAF thinks. You're on Giant Bomb, not GAF, so shut the fuck up about it.

This week is gonna be Bombcast overload. It will be good though.

@Javes: Yeah, pretty much NDA because Jeff was a E3 judge.

Game CUBED amirite? Still harnassing the power of 8 GC's somehow would be interesting just for the visual.

"It's not like they'll be making another MMA game."

They left poor Jeff in the dark :(

The mouth trailer was epic.

;D

I would just like to point out that technically Brad was the first person to wish Ryan a happy birthday on the air. Suck it Jeff Green.

I AM SO PISSED ABOUT DEAD SPACE 3

THIS IS SO STUPID

WHY WOULD ANYONE DO THAT?

The less Pachter on podcasts the better (yes I know it's a minority opinion but it's still the one I have) but other than that, the E3 episodes are always my favourite Bombcast episodes. Keep up the good work guys and try to sleep some!

Why does it matter? I'm ok with him giggling at the silly gamers on *insert hardcore community here*. They deserve to be taken completely not seriously.

Is it just me or is none of this stuff showing up in the rss feed?

Very interesting to listen to some of the things they say and compare it to what happened.

without listening to a single word, I say this is going to be brilliant & hilarious

Reggie confirmed it on GameTrailer's stream LAST YEAR that they will have proprietary discs for the Wii U. Maybe they use something else now, but I haven't heard anything about that.

They start around 4:25 talking about the proprietary disc.

This needed more Peter Dinklage.

I like the shorter break transitions. Snappy.

Looks like the RSS feed has decided to travel back a month into the past.

So glad this wasn't just me. My player for Android, Doggcatcher, is set to download the 3 oldest podcasts I haven't listened to. Apparently there was some in May/April I hadn't marked as listened.. so when it updated this morning, it deleted my E3 ones and grabbed those. Pretty bummed about that, but I'll just have to listen to them over the web instead.

Same here. I was really confused.

Can't really blame them for being so wrong but it's still pretty funny.

Yeah, large parts of the entire site did this last night, super weird. We've fixed it in most places, hoping to get podcast RSS sorted soon.

Is anyone eles not getting this on iTunes?

I loved Jeff's thoughts on BL2. It's basically shut up and take my money.

anyone else who couldn't help but laugh when they were talking about EA and jeff said "it's not like they'll make another mma game"

Please make another strategy KIllzone game Sony.

Good thing EA isn't publishing an MMA game, right guys?

I would say Silent Hill still tries to be a horror game.
