Giant Bombcast 04-27-2010

Extra post-outro stuff is always epic and amazing, rock on Jeff and Dave, rock on.

SWATCH IS THE CLOCK OF THE FUTURE BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Swatch Time will come in handy when we colonize Mars, but we'll all be dead by then.

Hey guys at Giantbombcast How about you guys do a tournament where you guys enter and a few fans of giantbombcast when the Super Street fighter patch or DLC comes out where we can make our own  tournament.. How about that for a idea instead of the Vs GiantBombcast matchs Multiplayer.. would be nice to have agaist the fans if you want real compaction. Maybe have some rules and a few prizes as well so people dont glitch or do anything.. Anyways this is my idea please send me a message back if you feel this is going o happen maybe but it would be sweet.. Nice to see the show is great so fare.. I am listening to it right now figurd i should give you guys a idea for next Multiplayer match!!

They should post those pics that guy had drawn.

Spy Hunter: Nowhere to Run is a good example of a game you are describing for Dead to Rights...I'm not proud i know that, but it was your own fault!

thanks for spoiling The Passing, Brad. >:(

I fully support Swatch internet time.

" I don't suppose you guys could keep the podcast down to an hour instead of these 2-3 hour monsters each week.  I literally have 6 days of podcasts to listen to on my iPod and podcasts like these are really a speed bump in catching up.  You and Rebel FM are the worst offenders for too long podcasts. "

Oh man, I completely forget about the existence of Goldeneye Rogue Agent.

That was a VERY Hotspot ending, perfect.
 
I also live for inside jokes.

I love the GB guys, but someone needs to punch them in the face for their pathetic gamefly use lol. 
 
Also, Jeff needs to realize that the control scheme in Conviction (and all splinter cell games) is the way it is because your not supposed to just run around and shoot people. Your supposed to play the game in stealth and be invisible. If you do, the game is so much better. Just running around and shooting people and trying to play the game like its another third person shooter is completely stupid and makes it way way less fun. I really liked Conviction and I am still kinda confused why Jeff was the one that reviewed that game even though he did give it a deserving 4 stars. 
 
Also Also, for playing games for a living, Jeff hates a lot of games.

I fully support the site switching to Swatch Internet Time! 

Pokemon conversation was funny as hell. I almost choked on my dinner.

*SLAM* "SCRABBLE MOTHERFUCKER!"

Good show, gentlemen.

Re: The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones reviews,
The weird-ass murder jokes make more sense if you check out his Star Trek reviews (which are fairly short compared to the SW ones.) You see the bit build up in a more logical (ish) manner. The Clones review takes the joke to strange new levels...
I also get the feeling that Zach would sound just like the review guy.

I disagree with Brad calling The Saboteur a second tier open world game, he is way understating how awesome that game is, and Vinny should definitely take his time with that great game.

Deus ex rocks!!!

That live stream thingy is a FANTASTIC idea. The only thing Giantbomb has been missing is more direct contact and focus on the community.

greatest podcast on earth daddio

 :o An aftershow in my Giant Bombcast about Swatch Internet Time? Madness.

+1 for Swatch Internet Time.
Implement it!

I love how Ryan constantly refers to Brad as "Bradley" when no one else does. It's like he's Brad's father or like he's talking to a child.

Maybe it's because I was listening to this at about 4 am (@416. I think) but I officially declare this the funniest bombcast ever! You may disagree, but I have never been so out of breath in laughter so many times. I am happy I did not listen to this on the road, otherwise when the Swatch aftertalk began, everyone in my vicinity would have thought I was a fucking psychopath. Props, guys!

"I  gave it a four.... Out of a hundred"

I approve of Swatch Internet Time.

"Everyone should get the jitters about any kind of government intervention about anything ever, by the way. " -Jeff Gerstmann.  
 
That is the most fantastic sentence ever uttered on this podcast.  And I have a blog for you to read!:

LOL...Ryan trying to compete with Brad's smoky pipes.

Vinny!! You have to hit up The Witcher asap. I just popped that on my steam account a few weeks back and forgot about all the new releases during that time man! It really is a fun game and I would love to see what you think about it.

Yeah because it totally isn't obvious which of the survivors is dead within the first 5 seconds of the campaign. "

loved the public radio entrance!

I freaking lost it at "dewmacratic".

Time to get my podcast on...

Glad to hear that K&L 2 seems to be coming together nicely. I really like the premise and the characters (and Heat), so having a good game back them up will be awesome. Watching closely.

great great ending!

Fake laughs FTW! ^.^

Zack is the cameraman

Ahaha, the Pokemon thing made me laugh.
 
The ending was great too.

I feel that just to acknowledge the existence of the movie gamer gives it more exposure than it deserves.

The ending was the best. I only heard it on my second listen through (I need to hear it twice for my school commutes) by chance.
