Whiskey Media: Happy Hour 04/29/11 (Free)

" I know they mean it in jest, but they are REALLY making me think about buying Cargo. I really want to play this game now the more they harp on about it. I talked myself off the ledge last night, I almost, almost, clicked buy on Steam.

P.S. Stop it! You will only make Jeff sad.

" lol at the "roflcopter" at the end,ooh man, im gonna get a paid membership,cuz  i really gotta talk to dave about joanna newsom "

Are there any games Brad is actually good at?

There is a Troll 1.

I'm glad that this week's show was free since they could've counted the last show as the freebie for April.

I totally fucking lost it at the "Thanks for coming on the couch" bit at the end.

Same - as soon as that game gets a price drop, I'm totally on it. Can't justify half the price of a full retail game from the UK store though.

Bastion keeps looking better and better - really looking forward to the PC version. Always nice to see Greg on the show, hope they get him back for his next game!

KRAKADOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!

The   Bastion coverage is a bit overkill. Also, no PS3... wtf...

Hey Brad, press the down arrow to go down.

That news segment with Patrick and Brad had me cracking up. Good stuff. 

ROFLCOPTERS indeed.

That match was total failboat dude. 

xD

Screened segment: 

The Dave Snider Radio Call-in Show With Dave Snider will be archived at some point, right?

FUCKING HELL! HBO GO is just for the yanks. I was all excited to finally get to watch a couple old HBO series I missed.

There's a thing about the USA cable that I've been wondering for ages; How expensive is it?
Have often heard that folks don't have cable because of the price.
Over her in Holland you can get cable (granted, less channels I guess. Including foreign channels it's "only" some 30 channels) in a cheap package with internet, digital television and basic phone sub thrown in for around 40-50 euro's.

Bastion = sold.

Id feel bad if i didn't buy it at this point, and the fact that it actually looks like a great game makes the decision way easier.

New game + always interests me.

I am fully stoked that Jeff went right to Sanford and Son as an example of what's not on Hulu.

One can only hope. "

Will GB actually review Bastion?

Call me crazy, but Bastion isn't really blowing me away. Sure it looks neat, and I know they're all old buddies which is why it's being featured so heavily, but it's just not quite there for me.

Somebody make a .gif out of that Thor-Frog with fire :D

Happy happy hour

Great to see the conclusion of the scrub league! This show was completely off the rails but it was still awesome.

I dunno why, but whenever I see Ryan in the armchair, I want to see him with a king's crown and drinking from a crystal-encrusted gauntlet. 

loved the news segment this week, and the angle on Brad playing that game is hilarious.

Surely that's too obvious? "

Nope. Can't remember when they said it. "

I should also state here, up front, before we get going, that due to the way we've decided to create ongoing programming based on Bastion and its developers--one of whom was a close coworker of ours for a lot of years--we're opting to not review Bastion when it's released. I suspect that, by the time it's finished, we'll all be a little too close to it to render an untainted verdict, so it's best to just state that now, so everyone's clear. Cool?

When talking about TV is probably the only time I think these guys show their age. I don't know anyone under 25 that actually still owns cable.

Ryan's new gamertag is so fucking amazing. 

Oh man cool Bradley!

Are Rorie and Ryan a couple?

keystone light

I wonder how many points "puggleicious" is in Scrabble?

no PS3 version of BASTION? I could have sworn they said ps3 back in the day.... i guess steam it is!

Also, I almost cried when I saw the awesome HBO site, but I have Time Warner... so if you have Time Warner we need to email customer service an complain that they are not on board with this, i pay so much for cable and HBO on top that its crazy they aren't supporting this!
