Any word on if it is even coming?

Things like that take time, I would expect to see it in a few months in the best case.

i think rmanthorp thinks we mean the redesign, not the video. We want the video. They said during the "i love mondays" video that they were gonna put it up, but nothing yet

Video is Up

Is what i wanted to see upon entering this thread.

@Mr_Skeleton: Really? Was it not just a video? How is it any different from TNT which get's uploaded right away? I'm not moaning or complaining btw I'm just curious...

I think he is joking. Well I hope he is anyway.

I think whatever is wrong with the recording needs the delicate touch of Drew to rescue it.

personally i am just confused as to why they didn't do a logging of the video. some of us users work, and can't bother watching livecasts.

Still want it.

Bump for video! or even audio

As a web programmer myself I was really looking forward to seeing this.

I too would really like to see an archive of it.

Same!

Just don't leave us hanging guys.

@Duder_Me :Nah CBSi liked them because they basically pay for them self. They are willing to commit funds, but in a terms of matching funding to what Giant Bomb can generate itself.

As you can imagine the starting costs of moving Giant Bomb there would have been substantial - Vinny's paternity leave, drews leave, equipment, workspaces, work cover, legal costs, employee packaging, PAX and E3 bookings and associated costs.

I get where you are coming from as far as the material, but they go the extra mile with this stuff for the guys who are generous enough to shout them a beer every month. If your also super interested in the back end stuff of the site, your probably going to be a subscriber, as the reward of being a subscriber matches directly with what you would want. As you can try it for $5 for a month, it's not a very big risk.

Perhaps we need the expertise of Drew to rescue the audio or video of this redesign discussion.

Cmon Duders. were is it? is it under this hat? No its just a kitten...............

Any news on whether this is going to go up at all? Seems as if they've given up on it.

Ryan is busy getting it back from the Nazi hands in these ancient crypts, give it a while!

I asked Vinny about this yesterday and he said the video was having some serious sync issues and he was fixing it. He has been swamped since getting back to the office.

The video doesn't want to be published. You can't force it. You have to speak to it in a calm, soothing voice.

No, it's just a smaller sombrero.

@alexisg: Can't wait, thanks for the update.

Hmmm if the video is not salvageable I am sure we would be fine with an audio podcast version. Unless it wouldn't be so simple.

It seems since the move to CBSi there have been a lot more syncing issues in videos.

From what I can remember of the livestream(I was kinda drunk while watching), they talked a bit that they're making some changes like maybe a new video player, hmm... maybe some wiki changes and idk something else, then they took questions and Dave had a blindfold on and Jeff was fucking with him and he was freaking out. You didn't miss any big announcements just normal giantbomb silly/awesomeness.

It's 5$ dude it's worth it!!

P.S. don't hate me.

It's up! http://www.giantbomb.com/alexis-dave-talk-design/17-5922/

Finally, Vinny is the best.

Dave's Shirt bit honestly made me laugh out loud. This is why I love this site.

I can't post on the video, so here's a short list of things I would like to see in a site redesign:

• Javascript code released under a free licence.
• HTML5 WebM player and WebM downloads.
• Ability to pull in StatusNet dents into GB.
