We Think Mondays Are A-OK: 03/26/2012

@ 1:44 Brad says 'while'. It is not the approved saying of While.

C'mon, guys, I just played through it - Downpour isn't that bad. :-/

@thebigJ_A: Brad's referring to Ys: http://store.steampowered.com/app/207320/

At the end Brad talks about some "ease" game out on Steam, but I don't see it, even though I see the game "Yesterday" they mentioned.

What is this game of which they speak??

@DeF: No not new at all. I just don't read comic vine. Although maybe now I will...

Dude, buy plasmas! Better color, blacks and no input lag or motion blur!

Downside, only 40" and up.

Is this 2001? Plasmas suck. I will take a LCD over a plasma any day.

2001 lol. You have no idea what you're talking about.

I met the french robot. I spent 20 minutes shooting him to pieces.

Cardboard Box Fort TNT please

YES! BINARY DOMAIN TNT!

So, did they ever say what happened to all of the TVs and console hardware they had in the other offices? Surely Tested and Screened didn't need that stuff? Seems like if they're trying to save money, the easiest thing would have been to just bring over the old hardware and MAYBE buy new TVs.

This is exactly what I am wondering, and is what I was going to post. They kept saying they need to buy stuff... don't they already have it? I mean, couldn't they have brought it with them?

I'd say it's likely that all that AV equipment belonged to Whiskey Media and not Giant Bomb. Just like the new stuff they are buying probably belongs to CBS.

i wonder if all that stuff belongs to Whiskey, paid with their funds, and maybe they get to keep them per the contracts

@flawedenigma: Maybe you can't but for super heroes with x-ray vision like myself the difference is too much to bear.

Panasonic pretty much makes the best TVs on the market.

I Love Mondays.

just so you know guys, you cant tell the difference between 1080p and 720p if the screen size if less than 50inches!

You can when you're sitting a foot away from the screen.

@flawedenigma: I assume that it might matter for capture purposes later on. Better safe than sorry either way.

I DEMAND VIDEO DOCUMENTATION OF THE BOX FORT.

TNT: BOX FORT.

love mondays....even on tuesday

I know you guys are no fans of JRPGs but maybe you would like to check out Tales of Graces F... I am sure that Dave would love to quick look it.

More videos like these, they remind me of the Building a Bomb videos, and it makes me smile.

Great video guys, good to see stuff is coming together over there

Yo, I have that same Samsung 1080P LED for my living room, only bigger, and that is a BALLER TV. Great contrast, really lights up, minimal glare, and once gaming mode is on, almost no latency. Really happy with it.

OH MY GOD PRODUCT PLACEMENT GIANT BOMB HAS SOLD OUT

@AlisterCat: I wouldn't mind another Banjo Kazooie TNT, but only if there is the triumphant return of Plane-Boat-Car and at the very least a Will Smith substitute.

@Mdk5631: That's a Samsung Shut The Fuck Up. You should get one of those.

Xenoblade? hype.

Giantbomb is a bunch of sell outs

What kind of Samsung TV is that?

Yeah, consoles. Whatever. Where is the dual GTX 680 PC ;)

No...human being could stack boxes like this.

Lawl, Brad and his bad shooter skills.

Also, worth knowing that in the UK, 576 lines is considered Standard Definition, so 600 line games really shouldn't have been claiming to be High Definition - Even if in the US their SD was only 480

SDTV is 576p25 or 576i50, it's a bit silly to compare that to (upscaled) 720p60.
