Giant Bombcast 12-09-2008

Following some heinous technical difficulties, it's take two of this week's Giant Bombcast! With Jeff as our one-man house band, we discuss Prince of Persia, Square Enix and Eidos, turning a DSi into a talkbox, Crackdown 2, Michael Phelps, and more!

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

Road & Track presents: The Need for Speed. I bought it for my 3DO when it came out, FIRST MODERN RACING GAME, in my humble opinion.

That was the best podcast ever.  That keyboard is the best thing to come to Giantbomb.com since Brad and Vinny.

Also, you guys NEED to bring Howard Phillips in for an interview.

If future podcasts take this advice of 'getting your drank on', then it will get pretty incoherent and pointless. Not so far though. Good job.

When Jeff said this podcast was better than the first one,i was scared,cause this was probably the most incoherent and annoying Bombcast yet.Rich Gallup would be ashamed.I hope they don't all go like this.You guys should take a page from Scott Johnson,minus the kids part.

Guys, you need to make a GiantDrugCast where you're intoxicated with a different kind of drug each podcast. NOT!!!!! ;)

I'm as big a Bombcast fan as anyone here, but I really didn't enjoy this one guys.. This is the only podcast where I actually laugh out loud at some stuff because you guys have a really similar sense of humor to me. I didn't laugh once tonight, because I knew you weren't laughing because you would normally think its funny, you were laughing because you were drunk. I like a good laugh, but knowing that this wasn't your real jokes disappointed me.

Funny. I've been calling Lumines "Lou Mines" for the past couple of years & never thought I was pronouncing it wrong. Now I'm probably going to be self-conscious about every Japanese game title I see from now on.

You guys should invest in a backup tape recorder, in case it fails next time.

Why are people so into this episode?I never realized how far drunken,idiotic humor can go.I say again,Rich Gallup would be ashamed.It's too bad too,because alot of the times the Bombcast is awesome.Anyway you guys better get back to your old routine because i'm running out of old episodes of The Hotspot to listen to.

I think a special Slalomcast is needed... with Howard Phillips as a special guest.  Get on that!

Man guys, I honestly don't condone drinking but that was the funniest podcast I have ever heard.  If you are going to drink, you may as well do it before the podcast every week.

You racist bastard, they're called turbans. HAHAHAHAHA

Jeff, you need to use that all the time from now on. Or never at all. I can't tell which.

Yeah, Giant Bomb! Another fantabulous episode.

Again guys, I usually laugh along with all of your jokes. Not this week, because I knew most of it was the drinking. Kinda disappointing. But the "you racist bastard theyre called turbins!" was the FUNNIEST thing ive ever heard

This is probably the best Bombcast so far.  The only thing that could make it better.... Time travel.

Yeah, I have to say that this is the best bombcast ever made.  Which is probably due to a mix of both the alcohol and the fatigue of just having recorded another and losing it.
 
"Let me tell you.....about Bimini Run for the Genesis."
"Who was excited for Slalom?" "ME!!!!!!!"
 
And even Howard Phillips showed up!  Seriously, if I were to ever introduce someone to the wackiness that is Giant Bomb this is one of the best examples.

"You racist bastard, they're called turbans."

That "Kane & Lynch summoning Lara Croft" bit, man. The most fun I had with that isometric Lara Croft game was playing the Kane & Lynch update in co-op with one of my duders.

Also, yeah, the Crackdown 2 wingsuit is badass.
