Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbags Without Borders

No country can contain this giant box!

What's in the mail? Is it an old T-shirt? A lunchbox full of rusty knives? Video game treasures? Canadian energy drinks?

GB east could really use that PC i'm guessing as they're still kinda barebones. What a nice gift.

I'd like to think everyone at GB received 1 of those mailbag knives and all future employees will get a big knife/dagger as welcoming gift.

Sure, send a $1000 PC to the website backed by a multi billion dollar conglomerate, they really need the charity.

I think that if Jeff had any idea what awaited him in the Mario Party live stream about to start he may have caused that knife to "slip" and thereby necessitate his absence from said "Party" due to injury. Small price to pay in order to miss that "game"

That guy needs better friends and better money management skills. Spending a grand on a computer only to decide he hates everything about computer gaming? He's gonna be kicking himself when he realizes he can just use a controller to play games and needs to build another PC someday

Wow. Just a whole PC? It shocked me when that happened to Patrick and I'm shocked now.

Also, that Faberge egg is sweet, and so are those patches. I'd like one of each!

With all the games, consoles, etc. GB gets maybe they could start donating duplicates to some charity that gives shit away to kids. You could make a stream of it. Have us all send stuff out by a certain date then spend the day unboxing it.

Someone that is a Giant Bomb user and lives in Tallahassee I can only guess is a college student. What a giant waste of money.

That guy could have donated that PC to a charity. I don't think GB is hurting for gaming PCs, I think the ones that they have are even better than what was sent in.

"Got it from those Barksdale boys. They don't need it no more, and Omar travels light."

Those Pizza Sans Frontieres patches are pretty great. Pays homage to pizza, Metal Gear, and some truly heroic individuals all in one stylish design. Love it.

I see that Fantasy Life box! Do a quick look you jerks! It's surprisingly fun and charming for a children's RPG, but got largely ignored because it was released on the same day as Bayo 2.

@ikramit: Of course. There are easier ways to get rid of a PC than shipping it across the country (and still provide a measure of utility).You can see their confusion in the video, they're thinking of the same thing.

My gaming computer runs an AMD processor, mostly because it's easy to pair a processor to a socket and they seriously undercut Intel price-wise.
