Who would YOU like to see/hear on E3 2012 bombcasts?

E3 is about a week away and one of my favorite parts of the Giant Bomb E3 coverage is the drunken, late night bombcast spectaculars.

(Taken from http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/u8uwz/i_am_geoff_keighley_from_spike_tvgttv_amaa_about/)

Image is me asking Geoff Keighley if he would have any interest in being on a E3 bombcast. Of course he wants to. I mean, who wouldn't?

I think it would be interesting to have Geoff Keighley, especially to talk about the 'science' of covering games - with Geoff doing the "final hours of", and maybe a discussion of the values of exclusive scoops.

Of course there are loads of dudes who I want to make a return (See: http://www.giantbomb.com/forums/general-discussion/30/giant-bomb-golden-duder-world-championship/545303/#166)

So, duders, who would YOU like to be guests on the bombcasts? Do you prefer mainly developers / PR or other game journalists?

The Sessler

Jenova Chen, again.

NO!

I doubt she will, Ryan said she wont, and I doubt Ryan has a reason to lie about it.

Never again.

Rich Gallup motherfuckers!!!

McElroy's would be awesome as usual and throw in David Jaffe for 4 hours of hilarity. Can't wait for the E3 podcasts, my wife is gonna hate me for a week because of them.

I think it would be cool to see some of the gameinformer guys on there. They had Dan Ryckert last year. Jeff has mentioned that in the early days of E3 he would spend time with some of the older gameinformer staff like Andrew Reiner and Andy McNamara. I think they would be a good fit on a bombcast.

Justin McElroy

any asshole from Kotaku

I wonder if Molyneux knows about "his balls". His thoughts on the MolyJam would be interesting though. I'm sure they're already out there though.

unrealistic, Jack tretton. Realistic(ish), Cliff Blezinsky (I think it would be fun if anything)

It doesn't matter, they'll all just talk over each other anyways.

Peter Molyneux is keenly aware of his balls.

I want Leah, but only if Jaffe is there to rip her a new one.

I'd like a podcast that didn't have 50 people talking over each other.

Definitely prefer other journalists to game developers since they can be completely candid with what they say (though there are exceptions like David Jaffe).

Bring back Justin Mcelroy, who is the funniest game journalist outside of the bomb.

• Johnny and Adam
• Justin and Griffin McElroy
• Leigh Alexander
• Geoff K
• Ken Levine
• Will 'n' Norm
• Jeff Green
• Greg K
• Harmonix crew
• Brad Moo-ear
• Mega64 Crew

This list seems somewhat doable.

Can someone explain to me what happened with her?

FUUUUUUUCK YOU.

I miss Jared Rea, not sure if he will be at E3, but he's a pretty funny guy.

There's not a ton of videos of it (that I can find), but Leigh was basically being loud and was drunk.

It got real old, real fast.

@ThePickle: Yes. Make it so. Basically a "best of" of old E3 guests.

@The_Nubster: I think it was her insistence on interruption and not wanting to move on to a new topic, choosing to simply drive the same one into the ground as hard as possible, until another opinion popped into her drunk mind and she decided to drive that one into the ground too.

justin mcelroy, paul barnett, adam boyes, john vignocchi, and RICH FREAKING GALLUP!

@Knetic2341: Peter Molyneux would be fantastic on the Bombcast . Muh Balls lol

Mike Morhaime.

I just want to see Brad's reaction.

Johnny V

Brad Muir

Tim Schafer

The Sess

David Jaffe

Justin McElroy

Rich Gallup

Edmund McMillen

The McElroy brothers, Johnny V and Jaffe.

I'd like to see the Pachter ,Jeff Green ,of course Johnny vin and Adam Boyes , sessler ,Paul Barnett and I can't think of anyone else maybe the girl that was with Paul Barnett from PAX from last year something cuskos I think .

@The_Nubster: plus there was the infamous part where her boob popped out for everyone to see , she was a complete disaster .

Jim Sterling and his Alien toys.

I just want Justin McElroy to come back on and update us on the new Sherlock Holmes game.

Agreed, I think Sessler would be awesome to have on an e3 show. Jenova Chen is a good choices as well and Jaffe will always speak his mind. If anyone from the 8-4 was coming back to America for e3 they would be welcome as well.

But my own pick would be to see if they could get Scott Sharkey. He would be a fresh voice and nice point of view. http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/26778

I'd like a podcast that didn't have 50 people talking over each other.

Hideo Kojima

Shigeru Miyamoto

Cliffy B

Triple H

Ice-T

David Jaffe, Johnny V and Gary Whitta.

'and that was E3'

Phil Fish

Johnny V, Brad Muir, more Vinny, John Drake, and Cliffy B would be cool.

After the events at 38 Studios, you have to have Gallop on there to talk about it.

Brad Muir... it's not like it's gonna happen, but I'd also really like to see Rorie :D

@Anwar: E3 podcasts tend to be very little about E3.

Huh, i can't really think of anyone (other than the bombcast)... for the most part, designers/producers are kind of boring since all they do is promote their stuff, and have no ideas about other games. The best conversations are when the guest talk about games that they didn't make (but not in a glowing generic way of saying nice things, by not saying much at all).

So pretty much, i want conversation/arguments about game design/concepts/purpose, and not people saying, "that game look great, but i didn't get much time with it. Oh, i haven't play that game, my backlog of games is fairly large. etc..."

Sessler

The cowboy

Dan Teasdale

Brad muir

Sessler, Whitta, Barnett, Rea. And Ice-T.

a horse, i dunno a horse just walking into the E3 house would be pretty cool

Any excuse to repost this, I will. Molyneux would also be very entertaining to have on the cast.
