I think they're not going to follow through with it. They're going to be like "Oh, the gin was too expensive." I think they're going to cop out. I would like Jeff to win, because I hate any kind of sports game, but I think he's gonna be the one drinking.

I'm happy that Dave and I are in the same club: The Patchy Beard Club. Represent, brother!

Stupid bet, they should have shaved the beard/ shaved an eyebrow or something, but anyway I think no one should play Madden until the end of the month, Dave seemed way more scared of Gin than Jeff.

If your looking for gin thats hard to drink, Gordons Dry is pretty bad but if you want something that tastes awful you should have them drink Bombay Sapphire it comes in a ice blue bottle.

@simian: One time at a party, I decided I was in a gin mood, so I bought a bottle of New Amsterdam gin. Then I took it to the party and realized that there was nothing good to mix it with at the house where the party was held. I proceeded to drink about half of it straight from the bottle. Gin straight is rough, but man, did I have a good time...

This isn't even going to be close, I'm with Dave. Even if the site is heavy with FPS players....this is Madden we are talking about. It will sell hand over fist. Does Wolfenstein have any hype at all? Bad bad bet imo.

There are a lot of non-Americans that frequent this site, and we don't generally give a toss about American football. 
 
We do however, generally give a toss about killing demonic Nazis with an energy gun.  
 
I'm going with Jeff.

There is no such thing as a disgusting alcoholic beverage, only men who are not man enough to drink them straight. 
 
Unless it's some disgusting shit like mixing precious liquour with some shitty shit i'd never drink like red bull.

Good Lord, Jeff. What were you thinking?
 
Hell, I'd be willing to bet that more people will play Madden 10 by the end of the month than will play Wolfenstein ever.

@Woocifer: This coming from a guy who has never obviously drank gin before. Douchebag listen I don't mind gin, and even I say it tastes like drinking oily sulfer that chemicals burns my throat as I swollow. Whiskey is like water, as are a lot of other drinks. Go do a straight shot of gin, then come back and say its a womens drink.

Hmmmm I don't know. Do we have many madden fans among us? I don't think Giant Bomb appeals to that market too much.

Sorry Dave but being that I am Irish I'm infinitly move likely to buy Wolfenstein then Madden. Enjoy the Gin. Try to vomit away from the expensive looking equipment you guys have around the office.

Cheap Gin.
Cheap Gin.
I would bet Jeff has the right idea...
I don't think the Giant Bomb fan base is into sports.
 
Gin is not that bad....

Even though I find gin to be a pretty nasty thing to sip (even with tonic), I'm with Ryan that they've gotta pony up something more serious when it comes to putting stuff on the line for this bet.

Not a fan of football but after playing Wolfenstein at Quakecon 2009, so easy to see which direction I've been leaning. Looking forward to this Wolfenstein game but after playing it, it's remarkably solid game & looks incredible.  
 
BTW Gin on it's own is kind of brutal which is why it's mixed with other things.

Man, listening to you guys makes me want a martini. I loves me some gin, especially Bombay Sapphire. But I agree with Ryan, the loser should have to drink bottom-shelf crap.

Hahaha, current standings, 666 players of Madden versus 66 players of Wolfenstein. This isn't really a fair comparison right now because Wolfenstein comes out tomorrow, but still.

this is like a bet for 2 school girls. 1 shot?  

-gulp- "omg yuck that was gross" 
 
and then Jeff and Dave are gonna get back to their slumber party? they think this is a real bet just because they threw up when trying Gin when they were like 15? those two are hardened alcholics now, they could take a shot of Everclear or an XXX jug of hillbilly liquor and be fine. 

they should have to take the shot on stage during their panel. in a skirt. thats a real man's bet.
