I just have to say, as a southern person currently dealing with the crazy ( for us) winter storm shutting down my entire state, it cracked me up to here Vinny accidentally play the corrections music when mentioning how terrible Texas is right now. I needed that laugh.
Guys. Everything will be fine. I heard GB will be continuing to improve their vetting process. Next week, Oscar winning director, Roman Polanski will be on the Bombcast. Should be great.
It is kind of funny this very podcast had almost a whole hour devoted to people that have allegations against them regardless of severity and promising to do better that this happened just a few months llater. Bad luck.
In regards to Matt, I have never quite understood why the public feels that they must be apologized to when they weren't the one that were wronged. I realize that a person may be called out publicly for some very shitty shit they have done in their private lives but that doesn't mean they owe the public anything.
Yeah. I just don't think this series is for me. I bounced off of the first one 3 hours after the prologue, because I hated actually playing it. Also the story and characters just didn't grab me. It just seemed like the stereotypical zombie apocalypse movie tropes spread out over 15 hours, instead of a more digestible 2 hour movie. I don't KNOW that to be true, but I just didn't care to find out.
This one seems just seems like more of that except even longer and with even less subtlety in its themes.
To answer Alex's question as to why Persona 4 golden is being released now I think the main reason is that that game has been trapped on the Vita for years now. As far as I know that is the only way to play it. as much as I love Persona 4 I'd be damned if I was going to buy a Vita just for that so I'm glad for the news if it's true. And as far as I know literally every other persona and it's re-release easily available on the PS3 or PS4. Golden is the only one that hasn't moved to another place.
@xerseslives: It's not completely unbelievable that they would have people apathetic to Silent Hill at this point. Haven't the last several entries into the series been duds? At this point, there's probably just as many bad games as their are good.
@shiro2809: Yeah, I'm a Kingdom Hearts fan myself and I can certainly attest to this. Metal Gear is a four game series( I dont count 5) that was on three popular consoles at the time. Those were nice and easy to get into and could stand on their own for the most part.
Kingdom Hearts however has 13 games. Most of those games are canonical and matter to the overall story. Trying to keep up and play all those on the multitude systems they were released on, as they came out, was a fucking nightmare. I could not even do myself. Now most of them, not all, are on the PS4 and it's relatively easy to get at this point.
It's just not fair to new people trying to jump in now.
