The intro cinematic for the gambling mini-game was amazing.

This was the best thing I've seen in ages. So funny.

Justified my annual subscription in one go.

Loved the presence of Ryan Davis on this. Without him, they'd still be trying to get the car off the ground.

Oh man. You guys doing these horrible games always makes the subscription worth it.

I have PC game suggestions, but I liked pretty good games (even obscure ones) and they wouldn't be nearly as funny as this stuff.

Thanks to Ryan for joining this one. Keep on keepin' on, fellas.

The guy who played Cutter was recently in an episode of I Shouldn't Be Alive, so there's that.

GiantBomb 2, that's it, eh Dave?

Actually that is pretty damned good. This game suprises me, but I am not sure what I even mean by that...reminds me faintly of Hard reset for some of the explanation bullshit....

The wierd guy is actually the best actor, but I have no reference for the hair style..and yeah I would of chosen the pills. Blue or red...

Apologies if the question has already been asked, but are there any old PC games for this feature that Giant Bomb is looking for? I have boxes of them collecting dust as I inherited a couple peoples collections of games out of college. Most stuff is probably available via download now but if there's anything you're looking for I'd be glad to see if I have it.

Or should I paw through it, find the "best" stuff and just send it you?

edit: I pawed through some of it and here are some of the more interesting finds, its mostly late 90s early 00s stuff:

  • Blade Runner
  • Dark Forces
  • Die by the Sword
  • Freespace
  • Forsaken
  • Hexen 2
  • Independence War
  • Interstate 76
  • Privateer 2
  • Wing Command 3 & 4
  • Myth
  • Star Trek "A Final Unity"
  • Start Trek "Judgement Rights"
  • DS9: The Fallen
  • Nox
  • Clive Barkers Undying
  • Anachronox
  • Nocturne
  • Arcanum
  • And a sealed copy of the Command and Conquer Renegade Soundtrack...

There a bunch more.

God, Ripper is one of those games that is a special kind of hell. It's obtuse puzzles were perfect for tormenting the Bomb crew. Myst IV would be another good one to drive them nuts.

This was great. When random PC game started I was a purist and thought they should only be playing actually good games but Burn Cycle with the addition of Ryan has converted me. I could sit here all day watching them fiddle with MS 3.1 and play shitty FMV games.

AWW man, not Ryan! Sorry, probably not cool to say that, but Vinny and Dave's humor isn't the same as Ryan's. There are some mixes that don't work so well. Ryan and Patrick, Ryan and Jeff, Ryan and Brad, those work. (FOR ME) These more comical videos the combo of Ryan with Vinny and Dave (and/or Drew) doesn't work that well. Yeah, perhaps I am a jerk, alone in this opinion. Ryan just makes references or gives random info on stuff all the time, and it is great sometimes, just not in this scenario.

I'm with you. Vinny, Dave and Drew are the definitive PC crew.

Was at work and my phone went off telling me of the awesomeness of random pc game .... I yelled at the sky .... WHY!!!!

Well , before work today I loaded it up on the TV and enjoyed the 90 minutes of amazing everything that GB:BC is. Reminded me of 1995's cyberbykes and now playing a classic VR game while watching classic FMV Adventure ...

Must find my S:Shock 1 CD edition in my closet...
