  • gbrading posted a message in the forum topic Monkey Island is back with the original team!. on the Return to Monkey Island Forum board

    Agree with ZombiePie that Curse is also my favourite Monkey Island game. But El_Blarfo is correct that as Murray is in the trailer, it does suggest that the game might in some ways acknowledge Curse e...

    Not much to talk about on this episode I'm sure, lol. ;)

  • gbrading posted a message in the forum topic Xbox agreed to acquire Activision Blizzard. on the Xbox board

    It's very crazy but my biggest concern is Microsoft establishing a de-facto monopoly across a large section of the video game business in a similar manner to what Disney have managed to achieve in th...

  • gbrading posted a message on the post Introducing Demon’s Souls - Borne to Run S01E01.

    Tuna Supreme is clearly carrying on the spirit of Charlie Tunaku from Persona 4 ER. ;) Great first episode! I love how they refer to every enemy as "this lad" or "these lads".

  • gbrading posted a message on the post We've Got New Shows And A Premium Sale!.

    As a long-time premium member, happy to see lots of new stuff in the works! Looking forward to hearing/seeing more about Guilty Pleasures which I think could be really fun.

  • gbrading posted a message in the forum topic Nixxes Software gets acquired by Sony Interactive Entertainment. on the General Discussion board

    Quite saddened by this honestly, as they've been a stalwart studio for putting out good PC ports. I can't imagine Sony will have them working on PC versions, unless they seriously pivot. I mean, I'd...

  • gbrading posted a message on the post 685: I Did It for the Grookey.

    Oh my god I totally remember "More safari, less track". I think it was a forum thread which literally one person had written.Great episode guys, here's to New Age GB.

  • gbrading posted a message in the forum topic What Giant Bomb has meant to me.. on the General Discussion board

    Excellently put! Mirrors many of my own thoughts growing up with Giant Bomb and now in my early 30s. I too hope that Giant Bomb still has a bright future ahead. <>

  • gbrading posted a message in the forum topic Vinny, Brad, and Alex are leaving the site. Last day is Friday.. on the General Discussion board

    I was a GameSpot member since 2006, then a Giant Bomb member since Launch Day in 2008. I was a GameSpot moderator between 2008 and 2014. I've been watching these guys for almost 15 years. I've literal...

  • gbrading posted a message on the post The HotSpot - Episode 397.

    Really enjoyed listening to this HotSpot; I have fond memories of 2006-7 era GameSpot before Jeff was fired; I was on the moderation team from 2008 until 2014. The amount of content GameSpot was pumpi...

  • gbrading posted a message on the post Vinny Caravella's Top 10 Games of 2020.

    I feel exactly the same about the commute. I do not miss it in the slightest.

  • gbrading posted a message on the post Jeff Gerstmann's Games of 2020.

    The KLF are such a weird group/thing, their whole history is incredible. You have to be extremely odd to burn £1 million.

  • gbrading posted a message on the post Alex Navarro's Top 11-ish Games of 2020.

    One of the best pieces ever written on this website, and perhaps any website. Thanks so much Alex, much love to you.

  • gbrading posted a message on the post The Worst Song of the '90s.

    I agree that the 1990s are the worst decade for music. I believe that after the fall of the Soviet Union, popular music took a massive downturn.The Macarena should absolutely be on the list. The numbe...

  • gbrading posted a message on the post Cyberpunk 2077.

    It might not be as broken as Fallout 76 but this is a truly abysmal launch for such a tentpole game, and especially one that has had such a lengthy development. I don't doubt by summer next year it'l...

  • gbrading posted a message on the post The HotSpot - Episode 360.

    I literally can't believe I missed this 6 months ago, The HotSpot was reborn! The HotSpot was the first podcast I really got into, Rich Gallup was such a great host. Those were the days. And starting ...

  • gbrading posted a message on the post Spelunky 2.

    They sure made a sequel to Spelunky! I respect the hell out of it even though I was abysmal at it.
