Giant Bombcast 05-26-2009

We hint at Giant Bomb's plans for the big show and discuss the diminishing returns of teasing a teaser, how to punish rage-quitters, ICP's wrestling league, Bionic Commando truth and reconciliation, our appetite for Fallout 3 DLC, and much more!

The Giant Bombcast is the world's most beloved video game podcast, and now it's available in video form.

Countdowns TO another Countdown? NOOOOOOOO!!!!! IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!! FUCK YOU HIDEO KOJIMA!!!!!!!! AND KONAMI!!!!!!!!!!!!!


If you keep making original IPs while redmaking retro games, there's no problem. When your whole line-up is new-old games, then it's time to call it quits.

Just a shout out to the Giant Bomb crew, these podcast are better than anything I can remember you doing on Gamespot, but I do miss R. Gallup and A. Navaro.  Maybe you can have some other former colleagues as guests sometime?

I'm pretty sure the Castro assassination plot was in the Godfather Returns book, that takes place between Godfather Part II and Part III. In the book, I vaguely remember not going through for some reason.

Hey what happened to the good old right click "Save Target As" option for downloading the MP3 version ?  I had to download the podcast via Windows Media Player and it took fucking ages...

Ok guys, I'm holding you to your timed-exclusivtivity promise. I expect this exclusive PS3 content to be on 360:
- Bioshock challenge rooms
- Eternal Sonata extra playable characters/costumes
- Tales of Vesperia new character
- Ninja Gaiden 2 new levels, playable characters

- Virtua Fighter 5 also needs online for the PS3

I'm glad that Fallout 3 is finally catering to its full audience and fanbase, and I hope the compaines for the listed games above also don't forget their entire market.

How about this for the UFC Undisputed problem.


If you disconnect with 50% or greater health, ok, it happens.
If you disonnect with 25-49% health you have a 10 minute hold.
1% to 24% you have a one hour hold.
If you disconnect with 0 health, it kills your ability to enter a match for 24 hours.

@Grillbar:

I did that and it starts playing via Windows Media Player.  So I used "Save As" and got it that way.  The download rate is stupidly low though.  Well I've got it copied to my PSP and I've already listened to the podcast, so I'm happy for now...
