So here I am, trying things out. I think I'll try to use this blog regularly to talk about my opinions on games, developers, or the industry as a whole. Could be fun. I'll probably lose interest.

Welcome to the best video game site there is. I think you should take a look at the Endurence Run videos and try out the quest. the quest will help you get familar with the site and they are fun. Some one will eventually post the rules and junk which you should follow, yadda yadda yadda.
Thanks! A friend of mine suggested this site and had great things to say about the community you guys have here and how fun the site is to just play around on sometimes! Figured I'd give it a shot.

oh man, you have no idea, haha. glad you decided to join us ^^
just sit back, don't be a dick and you'll fit in perfectly here.
@Daveyo520: No. One of my buddies doesn't like it. Then again, he doesn't have the history I have with the GB crew. So idk. Maybe it's that or just the whole theme of the vid. I thought it was really funny when it came out. Watching it now, it's still entertaining, but you know, habituation and all that.
" Thanks Virago! I think Archer is one of the funniest shows that's been made in a long time. And what endurance video should I be watching exactly? "
All of them. I know it's a tall order, but take it one day at a time. Start with Persona 4 if you want to get some of the more deeply ingrained and repeated ad-nauseum injokes in the community, or Deadly Premonition if you want to get the newer ones. Personally, I suggest Persona 4. Also, pretty much ignore anyone who's an asshole to you. We're a great community, I'd like to think, but we do have our dicks here and there. Hell, even I'm prone to my dry, unconstructive responses.
That all said, welcome to the Bomb Shelter! (We don't really call it that) And don't forget to give the Bombcast a shot.
@AjayRaz: it is a classic, I agree, but there is just something about it. I could never choose which video I like the best, it is like choose which of my fictional children I love the most. @myketuna said:

I have been following them since about 04 so I guess I have history with them as well. I just don't like rap and junk I guess.
@punkxblaze: thanks man. I'll check out the persona 4 videos, per your suggestion. and ive listened to a couple bombcast with the friend who got me to sign up here. just set the subscription on my itunes and set it to update to my ipod. cant wait for my drive tomorrow.
Welcome good sir. I'd have something to say, but I'm far too distracted by Archer. In fact, just because of that picture, I think we'll get along fine. Actually we would have gotten along wonderfully... welcome!
if you have a ton of time watch the classic Persona 4 ER, but watch out there are over a 100 hours worth. Or you could watch the newer, currently running, Deadly Premanition ER. Which are both at episode 35 a peice. But there are two of the running side by side.
" @Craiglestyx: Have you by any chance seen Frisky Dingo? Another great work by Adam Reed, of which I've seen over a dozen times by now. "
frisky dingo is the best. haha "
I used to drop references all the time in desperate hopes someone would pick up... I would have dropped one right here, but I don't know what I could have said. It's a good thing I'm not forced to drop references, that would have been a pickle... oh!!! I was supposed to get pickles, for a party. Wanna come? There's gonna be pickles, if I get 'em.
@Snipzor: I absolutely have seen Frisky Dingo. I have both seasons on DVD. I was so pissed when that show was canceled but MAN is Archer WAY funnier. I guess it all turned out ok in the end.
@Craiglestyx: Yea welcome man this sites the bombdigity. And be sure to watch ALL of the deadly premonition endurance runs as an initiation, you could watch both if you like but most people go with Jeff and Vinny since Brad is too much of a *cough cough* skilled player. But you'll love the videos and these forums are great too. Oh and don't forget to listen to the bombcasts every tuesday, annnnnd I think thats it for now.
See, I told you these people were good people, buddy. And yea, those Deadly Premonition Endurance Runs are hilarious. I can't believe I forgot to tell you about them!

See, this was a good first blog post. I've seen some go down in flames, but not this one. Why? You could just tell it was honest and not some sort of spam for a quest or something. Welcome to GiantBomb.
@Claude: Haha I really wasn't even expecting this. I figured it would go by and no one would notice or anything, but i suppose my buddy cuephat was right. There's some damn cool people here.
@Claude: Do you suspect something is in the air tonight? It is rather unusual for a welcome blog to be met with such open arms so many times... even with the coolest of dudes. I call for an investigation, we should call the investigation team to this.

All the haters were on Friday and Saturday. I would say it's nothing more than good timing. If this blog is still up tomorrow, watch out.

i don't know either. maybe it's his avatar. he's pointing a gun at you so you can't fuck with him.

haha the best part is i don't even know who this guy is. "
@Craiglestyx: So am I, I can't recall the last time this happened... actually I can and it has been a while since then. How unlike me, thinking of times past, taking the forums so serious. There is something going on. Well technically you wouldn't know that of me yet, but that's not important. @AjayRaz: Hardly, Archer is someone to fuck with, or rather someone very hard to take seriously.
@Claude: And here I was thinking that the haters don't take breaks, but rather took turns. No matter, the less there are the better.
"awesome. you're a good friend from what i can tell. i don't tell my friends about giant bomb. it's my secret >> the ones i do tell don't last here. "
Same here. It's a secret of mine, too, but certain people deserve to be let in on it, I suppose. "
indeed. though the people who i let in, didn't last long. shame for them, they're missing all this~
@Snipzor: you wouldn't know that by looking at him. looking at him, with his gun and badass turtle neck (?), it just screams "hey you, don't fuck with me"
@Claude: Haha I can't wait. I love haters. @cuephat: Glad I'm one of the chosen few buddy. @Snipzor: Archer is the world's deadliest operative. :) I wouldn't want to risk not taking him seriously.
