Giant Bombcast 04/15/2014

Paying to be treated like I'm a human being by the TSA is disgusting.

Yay!

If I were a wizard, i'd only cast bombs.

This week in Out of Context Bombcast Quote Theatre:

"I have a question about the panel: what happened to the donkey?"

"I think someone jacked it."

"The guy had like forty more, I have one at my desk."

What kind of asshole brags about working at a bank?

Also Anti-Tank guy, try ACE for ARMA2. It does a pretty good job dealing with vehicle damage.

Also that pee yourself person was probably mentally ill!

I was hoping the whole calling out other places bit was completed but it looks like it's now a permanent feature of the podcast. Not complaining just surprised it has gone on for this long with no signs of stopping.

w00p w00p! BOPPED!

@mikelemmer: Thanks mate.

Didn't care much for Bastion after the 2 or so hours I spent with it, but I'll never feel bad about giving an indie dev money. And I'll be damned if Transistor doesn't look really really good.

Ah, so that's why Vinny was tweeting about being in NYC.

@drew and everyone that is interested: If you want to know what Formula D the boardgame is about check this out: Wil Wheaton Tabletop: Formula D

ah a podcast to enjoy my new PS VITA to

(WHAT HAVE I DONE??? :'(. oh well at least im reppin' the underperformers along w/ my Wii U :) )

@karlpilkington: man i WISH i were six months behind

It had one in the middle, but I couldn't wait so I just fast forwarded through it when it came up. I had to d/l it before the stores closed and had to be out.

Oh no, not Bexhill beef. I don't want to be beaten up by all the old people.

No small business-man? :(

whatever jeff, any premium member with sense actually wants to listen to those small businessman spots, because they're awesome

microscopic-cast, but I'll take it.

I may or may not have vomited during the Snoop Dog thing...

oh darla the flavour wave is so cool

With no Vinny this week, I was hoping an extra character would be introduced into the ads. Perhaps Brad as Big Business Man

After PAX East *SMITE* 2014 panel, i dont *SMITE* think a normal *NEWEGG* bombcast is enough for me.

If only the world was so black and white, alas.

I value regularity, Brad.

Because I have an intestinal problem that means I never have it.

@whatisdelicious: Tell me about it. I got cranky about its bad DVD film compatibility, took until 1.6 for me to get reliable DVD viewing out of it.

1.7 this week, people have made themselves hyped up to think. Please oh please..

I'd love to listen to this but I feel like it'll be all spoilers for whenever the PAX stuff gets uploaded :-/

@humanity: but it is: there's SMITE, and there's everything else.

During the opening, I was like this:

Except sad instead of happy.

Gotta get my Bopping glasses on for this one.

With SMITE comes might!

Nintendo had 2 Directs this past week, I'm surprised you guys didn't mention one of the biggest games of 2014.

MR T was a bouncer... he was on a weird Bouncer compatition they used to air during the wide world of sports in the late 70's or early 80's

This "it's using voxels but doesn't look like Minecraft" thing is really weird, in part since minecraft doesn't actually use voxels, but also since voxel games were vastly superior to polygonal games graphics wise for a good decade, stuff like Comanche from 1993 wasn't outdone by polygons until around 2003.

@charaznable: I guess there should be a Vinny-Status: Not confirmed gif?

Man was not meant to witness such horrors.

Been happening on Tuesdays all the time here in Europe.

That Dakota beef is strong.

If anybody wants a link to the Rumble at PAX, it's right here: http://www.twitch.tv/pax2/b/519531446

It starts about 12 minutes in.

haha One can only hope that we'll never have need of it again.

Once you've been defiled by the GB PAX panel you know you've been 'worn-in' like a pair of shoes. No other panel will do!

Can we stop with the shitty emails please.

Hey @brad, in case you're wondering about Ring of Honor, it's where a lot of WWE guys got their exposure, such as: CM Punk, Cesaro, and the current champion, Daniel Bryan!

Brad's face is blurred in that picture because DOTA has taken his soul.

Giant Bomb Formula De stream? Yes please!

Hey @brad , I kinda of wrote off borderlands the pre-sequel as well. The description on paper sounds horrid. I honestly had 0 interest in it. Then I seen it in action during PAX. I thought Oh great a play through of a game I do not want at all. Seeing some of those really boring and eye rolling-ly painful ideas in action where actually pretty awesome and I was pleasantly surprised. I am now looking forward to it. I would say watch some of the gameplay and see what you think. It may not change your mind still, But there is a bunch of cool shit about it. Later duder.

@somejerk: I hear that. The multimedia stuff on PS4 is so bad that whenever I actually want to watch a movie with people that isn't on Netflix, I just haul my PS3 downstairs from my bedroom to the living room. Mostly I want them to address the interface (which looked cool in initial shots but is literally just the XMB with a second row and big pictures) and add in all the promised features that are either absent (suspend/resume, local media files) or broken (updating and downloading automatically has been super unreliable for me). Then I want them to start adding new stuff, like the option to follow other users without adding them.

I still don't have an interest in an Xbox One, but that system definitely has a more realized interface and Microsoft has been encouragingly aggressive about updating it.

Small businessman had to use his vacation days just to use the post office. Why won't you just use Stamps.com already small businessman!?

Is there actually something to Soda Drinker Pro? I mean it was funny that it was this shitty, idiotic game, but the fact this keeps coming up makes me think there is more to it or that the conversation on this junk game needs to end as it encourages more people just to make poorly crafted garbage.

God dammit I miss Ryan.
