Quick Look: Michael Phelps: Push The Limit

Ryan and Vinny put the "p" in "pool." And "Phelps." And "push." Lots of "p," is what I'm saying.

Sit back and enjoy as the Giant Bomb team takes an unedited look at the latest video games.

These Kinect quick looks do nothing for me anymore. That first batch of launch games produced the best Kinect content in my opinion.

At 9 minutes something "That's great swimming!" was in the exact tone of voice as "That's Numberwang!" and that made me love this game.

The soothing music helps defuse the frustration over the horrible controls.
 
Also: Vinny bricking a joke is funnier than most's successful jokes.
