What do you want to see on GB
Show Ideas
I would like them to do more competitive stuff against each other I think it could be a fun idea and series rather than the one person play the game and the other talks over it or coop stuff which i am not interested in, but that is mostly the games that they are playing coop as of recently, not the idea of it
Something not strictly related to video games. I remember Vinny and Abby saying they wanted to do more table top game stuff, which would still be cool once people can safely gather around a table again. I don't know. Get Vinny to sit down and talk about old coins again. I liked that. Or he can strap a helmet to his head and film himself doing some wood working. This probably has a lot to do with being burned out on video games myself.
Total War-ie - Rorie plays through Total War games.
The Guns of Navarro-ne - Alex plays a bunch of WWII themed games.
Do Not (Game)Pass Go - Pull a random game from the list of things on Game Pass. Someone on the crew has to play it.
Pass the Shoe(maker) - Brad has to learn to play baccarat.
De-Functo Land - The crew shows off the weirdest/rarest/most embarassing stuff in their gaming collection, with the caveat that it has to have come from a now out-of-business store or chain.
Rematch - Jeff and Jason each pick a member of the crew who are not into fighting games and become their "trainer" for one month. At the end of that month, the two crew members have fighting game match to determine the winner.
at this point any shows would be good do they even have any shows right now
This comment is on point in some ways a sad reflection of the state of this website. I know COVID-19 changed everything, but a bunch of podcasts with a Friday stream and comparatively few quick looks mixed in is such a far cry even from what they were doing during the beginning and middle of the pandemic. Video of podcasts I'd often rather listen to on my phone and one weekly stream of randomness is not exciting. So, I'd like to see literally anything that is more than that. I also find solo streams uninteresting and would prefer cutting those for fewer videos if it meant the whole gang playing off one another's comments in those videos.
I thought the Hitman thing was going to continue. Seems the staff liked doing it, and the audience couldn't get enough. More stuff like that.
As someone who has recently become entranced with SnowRunner, I would like to see Vinny and Alex play through it.
Titles off the dome, Cool Runnings or ItsSnowGame.
Giant Bomb Presents Justin McElroy's FMV Quest with Vinny Caravella
Seconding Hitmazing race. Run through all three games, that will take several episodes.
Also, I would like to see the KOTOR playthrough continue.
Bring back Dan and give him a game show budget. Let the nightmare begin.
You should watch his Twitch stream, this is already happening.
Blue Stinger endurance run.
Failing that, a show where each entry is a different game in the pile of knockoff survival horror games that came out in the wake of Resident Evil's success.
I'd really like to see them go back and play some N64 games that haven't gotten much exposure on GB (Space Station Silicon Valley, Jet Force Gemini, Body Harvest.) Body Harvest in particular has some vehicle stuff that, in hindsight, probably went on to inform GTA3 to a limited degree, which is interesting. I wouldn't expect anyone to play through a full game they didn't enjoy though, even if Jeff Force Gemini is a really good title.

Was just gonna say that. He's already got ridiculous gameshow stuff and amiibo fight gambling happening on his channel. He's also just bought and is in the process of moving into a house and has said explicitly that he's building out a studio in it for streaming. I'm genuinely excited/terrified/curious to see what he will do next.
I'd love to see Die Another Friday return, there is an obvious precedent of replacing the main star with someone else, presumably it would be Alex. There is a whole slew of James Bond games from that era. Maybe they could skip the terrible N64 Tomorrow Never Dies and The World is Not Enough games (though I wouldn't mind watching those either) and start off with PS2/GC/Xbox Agent Under Fire.
@charongreed: There's nothing on this site I enjoy more than Vinny and the GB crew giving full playthroughs to old CD-ROM era FMV games. Any long form premium show that is similar to "Random PC Game" or "Vinny's FMV Snow Day" would be the dream.
