Quick Look: Giant Bomb
You are all wrong, the best QL by far is The punisher, For these reasons thusly.
#1 Ryan and Vinny pull out a Lethal weapon reference,
#2 Some of the best quotes are from this QL, like "Magical gun wizard" "But this isn't pnishment, Yeah it is, I am killing these dudes, over and over again, it's punnishment enough, I called that one guy a fucker!"
#3 "He's the fucking Punisher not the magical fucking gun wizzard".
Apart from Rouge Warrior which got old rather quickly with it's use of fuck, this is one of the best uses of swearing that Ryan can only do, Brilliant.
This is a truly excellent idea for a thread.
I would like to add my votes to the Video Review of 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand - that's one video that I've watched 6 or 7 times probably - I love it. Jeff at his best. Also the Punisher Quick Look was pretty cool I remember - might have to rewatch that. A lot of people really loved the Darkest of Days Quick Look too.
Also, just thought, maybe some of The Matrix Online videos. They weren't all laugh-out-loud funny all the way through but there were some good moments and the final one was kinda moving in a weird way.
Sweet! I've been checking out giantbomb since it was just the arrow pointing down podcast and jeff's blog and I still haven't seen a lot of these totally awesome videos.
I think you should include Quick Look Throwback: Incredible Crisis, along with the Get Lei'd! mailbag video. Just some suggestions. I really like the idea of this page.
(If I'm totally missing it, sorry, but:) where's that awesome video where the power was out and they're running around with flashlights? I thought that one was pretty funny, but I don't know where to find it anymore. :(
I feel really proud to be a part of Giantbomb since the launch date, it's really been fun. Almost like another world to me,where i'd just forget about stuff going on in my life and discuss games (n other stuff), with like minded people.
One of the saddest thing for me though was the fact that i couldn't watch the Endurance run because of my slow internet connection and time limitations. But it was still fun to see all members get excited about it.
I love GB still and it's always fun to spend hours on the site when i have the time.
@Xeiphyer: you said some of the older members have left the site. Could you just name some? not all of them were my friends so i might not have noticed that some of them left.
" Stuff like HarrisM's Giant Bomb Alpha Android App or Sweep's thread for Giant Bomb iPhone App Bug Reporting can't get stickied...and yet something that simply rehashes what is already on the site as some sentimental trip down a road of the last year of the site...does? "The latter is actually stickied in the Bug Reporting forum. And the latter I've never even seen before because it wasn't even placed in the appropriate forum (API Developers). Of course, if it was in the appropriate forum no one would even have noticed it...
There was one video somewhat early on, where they are at a small convention/event and Jeff accidentally mentions an interview that was already shown earlier in the video and the videos goes into an infinite loop. Ryan says something like, "I trust Vinny won't edit this video" Man it was hilarious from what I remember. Does anybody know which one that was?
EDIT Nvm found it
And I love the ending to this one too.
" (If I'm totally missing it, sorry, but:) where's that awesome video where the power was out and they're running around with flashlights? I thought that one was pretty funny, but I don't know where to find it anymore. :( "i have been here since day one and i thought i had seen all the videos, but i have never seen this one, if it really does exist anyone have a link? (i didnt see it added to the first post yet)
I've had my browser on this thread and no other site for a few hours now and have only just gotten past the 'Build a Bomb' part. Thanks dude.
" @NickL: haha he means this one, I haven't had time to update the list since i'm neck deep in final exams for university right now.. Once those are done next monday I will add more =P "good luck on finals, my last one is tomorrow morning >_> i should probably be studying right now...
Thanks for the great thread.
I'm new to these forums, but I've been a long-time lurker of the site just watching Giant Bomb videos ever since. They've got the funniest videos around, and I'm currently catching up to the end of the Endurance Run (I can't believe I've spent more than 70 hours of my life watching this, so worth it!). Another QuickLook I reckon you should add to this highlights list is the God of War 3 one where half the time they're just going "Oh god, why!?"
"Do you know about the shin megami tensei series? cus i sure as hell dont!"
oh but they do now... they do now... lol
one of my fav moments this year on GiantBomb was during an episode of the endurance run where they are in the final dungeon close to the final boss. Dave comes down from upstairs and says "You guys are still playing this game?!"
This video is one that many people missed simply because of the name, what makes this video great is that it’s the only sports game to get reviewed on the site, and it’s not a review of a sports game! That’s double awesome!
I was exactly one of those guy that ignore that completely due to the Title
THANK you for letting me know
