Giant Bombcast Pre-E3 2012 With Paul Barnett

I'm glad the guys agree with not liking ex-staff in the Golden Duder contest.

BRAD MUIR IS ABOUT LOVE AND NEEDED TO WIN.

Yay Friday Bombcast!

Sneakiest of sneaks, sir

Time to get on the E3 HYPE TRAIN

Awesome podcast!

This was a good secret Bombcast.

Sorry Ken.

Always great to have Paul on. He has the best stories.

New Podcast, now I'm horny.

i was hoping for a pre-e3 podcast

I think I recall seeing a midcore porno once...

E3 just won't be the same without Paul, but at least we're getting our yearly allotment now.

Paul Barnett is a god damn angel.

E3 gives us the best Bombcasts, they get to break free of just talking about current and upcoming games and talk to other industry insiders about the industry as a whole. And Paul has always been one of the most interesting guests, too bad he doesn't get to mix with the others this year.

YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY GOLDEN DUDER

Aw Yeah. Time for some Barnett!

This could have just been the story about the broken mouse prank and I'd be just as happy!

Might as well cancel E3 now. Two years in a row PB has skipped. Must be quite some game he is working on.

Bonus podcast

Guild Wars 2 is coming out.

Am I the only one thinking Paul sounds like an Irish version of Dave ?
Anyway, like previous guests on the Bombcast, I did not know him but now I want more podcasts with him :'D

1. You are never the only one

2. He's not Irish...

3. He's amazing.

That is a great LoL story. Amazing.

BARNETTTTTTTTT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

awwww that's so mean ! DONT MESS WITH A MANS MOUSE !

This was awesome, really enjoyed it! Dare I say? Almost better than this weeks entire Bombcast really

That powerpoint presentation sequence was fantastic.

English Dave is the best.

In the 1995 Barry Sonnenfeld classic "Get Shorty", John Travota and Rene Russo discuss what the name of their exploits would be if it were a movie. John Travolta suggests "Get Shorty" would be appropriate because their ultimate goal was to get the 4'10" actor played by Danny Devito to star in the motion picture they are producing. So, That's what "Get Shorty" means Jeff.

Is it just me (there's that question again), and does anyone else notice that Brad's cartoon-ish picture above looks somewhat like Karl Pilkington's cartoon look?

How do we not know if it could actually be that Dave is actually English all this time? #E3 Mysteries

Anyways,

I going to miss seeing Paul Burnett live at E3, still awesome that he was able to do this podcast

Who else made the sign on impulse at the end when Paul mentioned it?

Downloaded it not knowing who'd be on. When Ryan mentioned one of 'our favorite people', I said, "FUCK YEA PAUL BARNETT". Honestly, one of the best guests on GB every time he's on.

"Animators like hanging out in the Smithsonian, and I do, because I'm confused."

So, where's a scan of the gamer categories Jeff reads?

wow. this guy sure dominates a podcast.

It sounded like an internal thing form EA's marketing department, thus not something they'd release to the public.

I know, but come on, someone leak it! It sounds AMAZING.

Jeez the GB still have not figured out how to use the D3 auction house?

It's not rocket science, you can figure out an items worth by yourself in a seconds if you do proper searches, both for buying something for yourself or selling your own gear. Set the proper item limiting parameters and do a buyout sort, done.

Christ.

Ryan put down one bid and now his shitting on it because it's not robust enough? It's like listening to someone complain that the chainsaw is an unwieldy tool for cutting down a tree when they didn't even bother turning it on.

And thus the grand time honoured tradition of complaining about game features on the bombcast due to their own ignorance continues.

HOW DOES HE NOT GET FIRED? Just listening to him talk about EA makes me think every other day he's avoiding getting fired just by knowing who to avoid. Great stuff.

Yes, I put Vignocchi vs. Varanini. And that's not totally racist. Just a bit.

Paul Barnett is so awesome. He'll be missed during E3 shenanigans.

Thanks for covering how screwed up finding anything on XBLA has gotten. I myself would love to go back to an earlier site config. I've learned to access through the computer for the little bit I have been doing. I can find games on XBLA easier that way to buy and dl. But I have also learned to wait for pc release at steam or wherever else.

This Barnett guy is pretty interesting!

To be fair the UI for the AH is HORRIBLE. But yeah it shouldnt be this hard to figure out. XD

Does Jeff not know there is a search function on the xbox?

Awesome bombcast with Paul & always love hearing him on the site in one way or another. Still think that Jeff's problem with the XBLA menus is just trying to get the game early as I'm sure that all the years of getting stuff before it comes out can mess with someone's sense of time a little. GB crew, bring Paul back for more bombcast stuff as he's hilarious.
