Agreed. "

He makes it almost unbearable to listen to the Bungie podcast.  I want to listen, but he and his laugh are just... ugh.

While I've never liked Halo, I've always liked Luke Smith.  So, great video!

Lukems is super douchey, but that's kind of his shtick, and his shtick is kinda funny.

I personally only ever liked Luke Smith when he was taunting Shane Bettenhausen into a fanboy rage on 1up Yours.

Can't see Luke without thinking of the first gaming podcast I ever listened to, 1up Yours.

I never knew this guy before this interview, but why is it bad that a press-guy became a PR guy for a franchise he loves? Have you guys ever heard of Alex Navarro? He loved Rock Band (and he was a reviewer) but no one blames him for being a shill before he worked there. They just got jobs at  a studio they like, which MAKES COMPLETE SENSE and doesn't make you a douche.

All armor lock will do is make bait and switch easier. That seems like the most useful function it could have.

I don't have a 360 or any interest in Halo, but it's Brad doing an interview! Of course I'm gonna watch it. Great interview, Brad!

I never cared much for Luke when I was still going to 1up, but I'll be damned if he isn't a silky smooth PR dude.  Great video.

Luke is awesome for stuff like this. He fits the unique Giant Bomb dynamic.

Yeah, i'm glad someone else shares my disdain for him.  He's not exactly a great ambassador for Bungie, IMO.
