And that was E3.
Paul Barnett- Best Bombcast Guest, or Bestest Bombcast Guest?
Paul and Johnny are both always awesome, but Paul's bread-maker analogy was just too spot on and hilarious for me not to vote for him.
Idk about the best but i do love whenever he is on. I think he needs his own bombcast whenever he is a guest cause he does like to talk quite a bit (then again he is paid to do that at E3). But he has some amazing insight, some great stories, awesome sense of humor, and will tell us things he is not suppose to give us insight into the industry. Him and Carrie Gouskos on last years E3 was one of the best podcasts ever!
He compared the Wii to a breadmaker, and made the analogy work! Also, Funkytown.
Seriously though, he's a genius at story-telling. I've said on like two other threads, but I can't stress this enough - You know how there was an Ed Boon Edition Bombcast. If anyone else deserves that treatment, it's Paul Barnett. 2 hours of just Paul Barnett? Think about it...
Since I have no attachment to GameSpot because I never went there, Barnett is the bestest. He should have his own podcast where he speaks candidly of the game industry. Barnett and Johnny V would be best bombcast ever. Hell, I would listen to them together if they had their own podcast.
Paul Barnett is fantastic - it's like if Gordon Ramsay was in the videogame industry and cut down on the swearing.
I honestly don't get the Rich Gallup hype. He seems like a cool guy but his personality doesn't jump out at me when he's on a podcast.
Johnny V is like the friend everyone has who always gets himself into awkward situations.
Paul Barnett was the reason I got into Warhammer Online, if you think he's good on the podcast try and listen to him when he's trying to get you excited about a product. He could sell me anything.
After that, Adam Boyes and Johnny V. Their Ustream stuff over E3 was great.
(also, it's "couldn't care less")
The last quarter of the bombcast is great. That whole 3d/ipad/etc discussion was equally hilarious and insightful. I'd love for him to come back.
