Giant Bombcast 520: Nice Meme, Jeff

neat

Ghost Cuuuuuuuupppppp

WOO!

WOO! TOO!

WOO! THREE!

I wish people would stop regarding the current Atari as the same company that made Pong. If I dug up someone's corpse and started wearing its desiccated skin I wouldn't be regarded as that person either.

WOO! FIVE?

2:21:18 for Ghost Cup

Nice Jeff, meme.

This was a memorable podcast.

@brad I heard "Chris from Austin, Tx" and it wasn't my email that I sent in (although technically I sent it to the Beastcast since they said they haven't been getting many lately.) I've never been so hurt by the internet. Now I feel like I have to find this "mystery Chris" here in town and duel him. Or buy him a beer. They aren't mutually exclusive.

Give me some podcast!!

Aren't Koch Media and Koch Industries related in name only? I just though Koch Media founder Franz Koch, just happens to share a name with a bunch of literal Ghouls.

Ben thinks he can fool us, but that man since the operation has been possessed by some evil spirit. Lets hope they can deal with demon Ben

MackeyD's isn't that weird. I have called McDonald's MickeyD's like my whole life.

SV has not come to.

Damn Ben

Under appreciated joke

Wait how the fuck did Ben do that.

@renegadedoppelganger: Came here to post this. Pretty sure Koch Media has nothing to do with the Koch brothers.

Two weeks in a row now where the thumbnail is just Brad and Jeff.
Two weeks in a row now I've gotten excited that maybe it's just Brad, Jeff and Jan.
Two weeks in a row now that I've been disappointed.

Looks like there is some little device under the cup that moves it along. Jeff moves it right behind the cup so you can't get a good look at it.

It seems to be the toy car that Ben was playing with at points during the podcast, like when Jan was talking about his terrible Instagram friends.

Saw this LIVE when it first aired. Good 'ol Kron4.

WTF!, Why the grateful dead hate?, they're amazing.

You FOOLS!!! You remastered the wrong Burnout!!!

Oatmeal and bombcast, good times.

I'd hope and assume that "Papa Priority" will be covered on the next episode of Munch Squad.

@wemibelle: Ah, thanks! Was listening in, then heard Jeff's reaction and immediately had to switch.

"Is the licensed music still there in the Burnout Paradise remaster?"

"I don't know. I didn't watch the trailer yet."

happy ten years to the Bombcast itself (starting from the arrow pointing down on 18th of Feb 2008)

for anyone wondering Jeff's Cool Sports water bottle is a Zojirushi and it holds I think 1.03 liters? It might be 2? It looks big enough to hold 2 liters, so maybe the model I looked up also comes in a 2 liter variant.

I mean... we literally heard it happen live on mic a few weeks ago.

The keys in Borderlands 2 and The Pre-Sequel are given out for free on the Borderlands facebook page (at least that's where I see them). I don't know if they ever had a buying option for them.

man fuckin no mannnnnnn

@renegadedoppelganger: "LITERAL ghouls"

If the Koch brothers are digging up cadavers and devouring their flesh, someone should really let the authorities know.

That, or cast "Turn Undead" at the next shareholder's meeting.

If you think that you're strong enough (nice meme) ...if you think you belong enough (nice meme)

@cursethesemetalhands: Ssomething wrong with Ben and Jason?

2:21:20 for the ghost cup.

EDIT: Ah someone posted it higher up already.

The push-pull between corporate and creative is something that is very real. Sounds like the Corporate side of Konami has taken over game development. A lot of these ideas sound like ideas from higher ups who have less to do with actual game creation. Make long cutscenes... have there be zombies... open world... have survival elements. It's too bad. Sounds like it could have used a little longer in the oven too.

For the same reason I'm slightly worried about Death Stranding. If you shift the power to the other side and give too much power to creative than you end up with games that take 6 years or longer. At this point I know I should have faith in Kojima. He has never made a game I didn't like, but part of me is still a little worried. I hope I'm wrong though. And the game comes out before 2022.

Ghost Cup is phenomenal!!!!

Only starting to listen now ... but that podcast-image makes me thing someone is going to be a dad soon :)

I tried, I really tried to resist all these weeks of lasagna talks (I now fucking hate Garfield) mentioning the most random cheeses, and never béchamel (that is what you use for your lasagne, unless you're experimenting), but my soul dies a little every time...I started contemplating buying air-tickets to Bologna for all of them to make them try the real thing...

Also, Ben, I apologize but "fajoul" doesn't mean anything in Italian, "fagioli" is the word for beans and is not pronounced at all the way you like to say it (I'm gonna assume your mean italian grandma was talking in dialect, as most of the italian southerners that emigrated to the USA did)

You guys are breaking me, goddamnit! :D

Since someone posted this on chat i wanted to share it with everyone else.

Ah so slay the spire has finaly reached the gigantic bomb. Interested in what they have to day about it. Its really really good.

You can access your cosmetic slot in your room from the get go, it's under Layered set.

Wow, they read my email! I can't speak for other venues, but the place I saw TMBG at was the Pageant in St. Louis, which is a pretty big auditorium-type place with a balcony overlooking. It was packed, just like the last time I saw them there. The fact they're touring and doing Dial-a-song again is pretty crazy, even considering most of those songs are just from their new album.

@ripelivejam: Jason is great!
