@csl316: And now I have Gin and Juice playing in my head. Thanks a lot.

No, honestly, thanks, this day has sucked and I kinda needed that!

Great, now I do, too.

Thanks. A lot.

"Recettear?"
 
"No, Rekkateer"

Now would be a good time to Load a Last Save.

Hey Monday.. I.. really... like you too.. you know... *awkward silence*

Sweet! Time for a little rebound action from Monday! When Monday's remorseful, Monday's a FREAAAAAAAK.

Persona 4 arena coming out in 2 weeks.......FUCK!

I'm really not trying to be a jerk here but where's Patrick? It's been weeks since he's been seen in the office or on the podcast. Is he ok?

@Baltimore: His dad died a couple weeks ago, so I suspect he's been in Chicago.

@claudius: Thanks claudius.

And now I feel like a complete and utter asshole for even asking. If Patrick ever reads this then I would like him to know that my family's thoughts and support go out to him and his family.

Blacklight Retribution, guys.

Play something awesome from a few months ago you've missed. I recommend Mount and Blade: Napoleonic Wars.

wait wait wait, I may be crazy but... Ryan and Patrick have been missing on mondays for a while, I think they're up to something maybe they are enduring a run of something. Cause doesn't Ryan usually drive with Jeff to work?

I don't know maybe they're busy with stuff, I haven't been following their twitter feeds.

tell the girl next to Brad to quit playing with her phone and get to work

NeverDead more like NeverPlay HAA!

Wonder what podcast Jeff will be on... Will have to check that out.

I tried looking for the GS podcast he said he was on last week, unfortunately to no avail, because holy shit, that website's navigation is horrifying. They have like 50 podcasts, and most of them haven't been updated in years.

Anna is a horror game similar to Amnesia that was released on the 16th

Hey, Pokemon Conquest is, despite appearances, legit. The combat is simple, pure, and strongly habit-forming; there's a massive amount to do in the campaign, which lets you be as micro-managey or as macro-managey as you want, never forcing you to fight a trillion tiny battles unless that's what you prefer; and they packed it with a metric megaton of unique, detailed, and frankly good art, never skimping where lesser titles would. It sets the bar higher than even previously conceivable for a Pokemon spin-off. I'd love to see Giant Bomb give it a little press.

Anyone got my back, here?

ehh what happen in the video, i want looking a Sara the whole time

Something has already been done on Day Z?

It was kind of a clusterfuck though, they didnt get to do much and had server problems for a lot of the video. Personally, I wouldn't mind a do-over.

DO-OVER!

@Pop said:

They should find a way to play Bikini Karate Babes 2: Warriors of Elysia. The world must know of it!

Endurance Run please!

lulz

I would not mind more Day Z stuff.

Evo 2013 make it happen

Somebody say Quick Look Throwback? Well, yes, it was me. Just then.

Matt Rorie?

Newest recruit at CBS GiantBomb?

They need to suffer through La Mulana. That tease they did last week wasn't fair when nothing showed up about it.

Maybe do a Quick Look of Day-Z?

@heavyplay: They've done that already :]

startled sara!

Do giant bomb video pause randomly for anyone else?  I have a 16 mbps connection and it still will stop and start.

FYI DUDERS:

You can see your most recent steam purchases by going to https://store.steampowered.com/account after you've logged in or clicking on USERNAME's Account on the upper right side of your steam client.

I think Sara is the bee knees, but I wonder what a day of work looks like for her. She doesn't seem to produce much content other than weekly news and little blurbs. Translated: Super Jealous and goddamnit I want her job.

@Askherserenity said:

@heavyplay: They've done that already :]

Hm, you're right. I did a search under Day-Z and Arma 2 - turns out it was filed under Arma 2: OA. Cheers.

MDK 2 HD!!!! :D

Next Week... :(

How about that synchronized "ummm" at the 2:17 mark? Soothes the soul.

@jakob187: Unfortunately, that game is not long enough to warrant such attention nor esteem.

You guys could do Guild Wars 2 beta last weekend. Oh well. :)

@Arrested_Developer: Happens to me too. Not all of the time but often enough to annoy me!

The girl who sits near Brad is back! I've fallen in love with her

Isn't that the Comic Vine girl? I don't read comics so I'm not familiar with their crew.

Yes that is in fact Sara Lima from Comic Vine.

You guys should have an Indie spotlight week. Just Quick look some interesting indie games you've been playing. Maybe even a single quick look covering 4-5 ios games.

I support a QL of The Political Machine 2012.

How about a Tomba QL? Stilll no Armored Core V either.

@heavyplay: Vinny and Drew kinda already did.

Sounds like Film-maker should be TNT

I have a feeling that Alex reviewing Dyad will result in the Alexiest headline ever written.

Still don't understand why a gaming site has a fuck-tonne of Macs and barely any Windows PCs.

Seems like a great week to start up a new endurance run!

Urch, so I have to deal with another boring week here on GB? Videogame God have mercy on my soul and release something damnit.

@Mahonay said:

Exactly.

DayZ is still this fragile beauty, which could 'break' with every patch update, but is worth and relevant r i g h t now - yet, especially Jeff has this tendency to counter popular gaming hype with ignorance*. His choice. But there is no lack of people streaming DayZ vomit all over the Internet.

*The GB crew would "add" nothing new to it. Maybe that's what Jeff might be thinking too. And he would be right? But seeing Ryan trying to play it and cursing & hating the control scheme would be funny to watch?

Still a bummer, that Brad doesn't own Arma 2? Somebody should 'gift' him that on Steam! (No, I won't)

We need a Neverdead quick look so bad
