I just rewatched some of the endurance run videos. I tried playing Persona 4 a while back but I could never have the, er, endurance to finish it, much like any JRPG. Watching the GB crew play it through brought me back to when i was a kid in another town and had friends who were as into video games as me. Really bitter sweet to think playing single-player games has become a very lonely experience as I've grown  older. 

Although this has a bit more discussion value than other threads of the topic, GIANT BOMB HAS NO PLANS TO DO ANOTHER ENDURANCE RUN EVER.

I'm fully with you. Ever since I left High School, I've missed hanging out with my friends and just playing games after school or during the weekends. I suppose that's the number one reason why I like the Giant Bomb videos so much - it takes me back to that place where we'd sit around and watch one or two of us play a game and just joke around and have a good old time. We still do that from time to time, but it's usually a monthly thing now instead of a few times a week like it was in our high school days - and now that we're nearing 30 (Jesus!) with girls, job, and families, those monthly things are going to slowly turn into yearly. =(
