@Amored: As much as some Norwegians like to think it's a big thing, noone else cares at this point.

I randomly skipped to 3 different parts of the video and each time I clicked, the first thing I heard was Brad saying, "Uh...".

Trials is not a thing in the US? WTF?

Well I'm from Germany and it's super niche here, too. I don't think it's the reason for its success at all.

That trial is pretty big, though.

I'm not Norwegian, but from neighboring Sweden, and the trial is a huge thing over here. It's also all over BBC World and Euronews.

Gotta love how they pretty much ignore the largest addition over the previous game.

The multiplayer not switching up which player is in the front slot totally sucks, that's a big advantage to that player.

I didn't say it wasn't news, I said people don't care. Or rather, they care about as much as they will care about what's news tomorrow.

This game is so awesome. This, Fez, Witcher 2: great week for the 360.

It's a cosmetic thing, but I'm really appreciating the variety in the environments with what I've played so far. Pretty refreshing after the warehouse from Trials HD.

Brad sure likes his excuses for sucking in games. It´s okay Brad just keep doing what your doing, trying to finish your own track was the best.

Fuck off dude. Quit being a dick.

Also, it's "you're", what's your excuse for not know how to spell simple words?

Pro tip don't try to correct someone while making a mistake. Makes you look dumb.

I've sunk a little over two hours into this this afternoon. It's a perfect sequel. Improved all the weaknesses of the first and kept all the stuff that made it so great.

5 stars. Game of the year so far.

I watched the "Trials HD riddle" video, and it's pretty obvious not a cohesive "riddle." It's more like someone said "hey let's add some mysterious seeming stuff and references to great mathematical breakthroughs or major historical events." The video tries to make it seem a lot more connected and significant than that but it's pretty obviously not.

I know man. Brad and Patrick are the worst for quicklooks. Brad never has any idea what is going on, ever, and patrick likes to explain to many things. I wish this sight would understand that the reason I feel like most people come here is because of the humor that everyone EXCEPT brad and Patrick bring.

Agreed. I love Brad and think Patrick is pretty damn great. They bring their own style to this website, and we should be pretty damn lucky to have them here.

Also, how in the good god fuck do you mix up 'site' with 'sight'?

It amuses me how everyone acts like Giant Bomb is some boy band.

"Nuh-uh! Ryan is the hottest one! Vinny is just there to work the cameras."

"Oh, yeah? Jeff is the one with all the talent. Ryan could be replaced with any pretty boy on the block."

I know trying to get the internet to stop bitching about petty things is like pissing into the wind, but the level of commentary on this video is ridiculous. Don't you people have bigger problems to complain about? If not, holy shit, go out and find some, because life is not to be wasted on such trivial nonsense.

Hey hey, I love Patrick, I think he's one of the best Quick Lookers. And Brad actually has the best commentary of everyone, but he's not too good at action games on-the-spot. I may not like when he's in the driver's seat, but in the passenger seat he's awesome.

Is Trials 2 good? I don't have a 360 and 2 is out on Steam

After being a big fan of Trials HD and having that as my introduction to the series, I couldn't go back to 2, but I think it was mostly a difficulty thing, probably.
