Giant Bombcast 11-22-2011

Tested.com’s Will Smith brings his signature word pronunciations, Patrick goes back to NASbraska, Jeff talks high-level Blitz play, Brad runs HDMI cables, and Ryan gets serious about Ultranationalism in this week’s Bombcast!

I dont get what all the Patrick hate is about, I am quite a fan of his

I didn't like him on the podcast at first, but he really adds to the discussion lately, I think. I've warmed up to him. (Though the podcast does sound crowded at times.)

I hope Ryan saying to Will "talk about games" puts an end to people saying Game of the Year and minecraft in the same sentence.

Patrick pronounces attribute as aTRIBute, even when it's not that kind of attribute.

Wow, it reads just as boring as it sounds.

Thank you Jeff for bringing some truth about how Skyrim easily breaks itself even if you don't purposefully try to min-max.

I haven't used a monitor for my computer for like 2 years guys. Was a 40' samsung now a 42'' LG, works fine but I do have a little table to be closer since yeah I need to see stuff. I can just move it though and lean back if I'm playing a game with a pad. I only have one weird image problem that I'm 99.99% sure is not from the tv, and it's not common anyway. A high def tv is just fine for a computer monitor, though I read lcd might be better if you like razor sharp pixels so when I had a choice for my last tv that's why I bought it instead of plasma.
 
Oh, and I definitely got pushed to play saint's row cause of GB. The fucking hilarious thing is that the internet that loves sr2 HATES sr3. I didn't know that many people existed.

Honestly...people these days. Guess Will Smith just doesn't chime with the youngins anymore.

Haven't you kids seen Men in Black? Independence Day? Hell, do you even know that he's the Fresh Prince of Bel Air?

We went through this like 2 or 3 weeks ago. Patrick has a mic, there are 5 regulars for the bombcast now. Take it or leave it.

Elder scrolls nexes executable works with the patch from a guy who modded the games in the past makes the pc run a lot smoother. @ replyer except this is a workaround patch for the update issue.

Also given how archery heavy and item gathering heavy Skyrim can be I prefer the mouse.

WAIT. Everyone does Boxing Day.

If we do it in New Zealand, everyone must do it. It's a rule.

Who the hell doesn't do Boxing Day!?

I remember moving to New Zealand and being totally confused. I lived there for two years and still don't really know what that's all about. Something about the day after Xmas putting shit back into boxes and... sales?

I think traditionally Boxing Day was when people opened presents. Also a great excuse in modern times for gigantic sales to get rid of all that excess stock. Christmas was for the religious celebration... day? Man. I don't even know and I've lived here my entire life.

This 'patch' does not work with the updated Steam version of Skyrim. If you have 'automatically update game' enabled in Steam, your TESV.exe was updated via Steam yesterday. It basically encrypted the executable (DRM) and the LAA Flag - enabling the above 2GB (but still less than 4+GB! RAM) - does not work anymore.

Brad: HERB, YOU PRONOUNCE THE H.

Jeff, you're OK. For now.

Sword is a joke. He says it that way to piss people like you off. There's a specific bombcast where someone sends in an e-mail about it and both Jeff and Ryan laugh about it.

@LiquidSwords: @Godlyawesomeguy:

I am very happy that there is a a new bombcast, I really like him but ffs WIll brings nothing to this podcast. Its not about GB staff its just about the discussions they have.

If you guys get so worked up about me having an opinion, you need a life!
